• March quarter PAT stood at Rs 130.7 Crs on a consolidated basis, up by over 86.6% Q-o-Q. PAT for FY 16 was Rs 353 Crs, up by 30% Y-o-Y. The improvement came on the back of margin improvement due to a reduction in the cost of funds and improvement in yields, along with a stronger than expected growth in overall AUM. Cost of funds came‐off 10 bps Q-o-Q and 150 bps Y-o-Y due to a rating upgrade earlier in the year and lower base rates during the year. Yield has improved 190 bps Y-o-Y as Manappuram has shifted to shorter duration loans because of which the quantum of auction was lower. Auctions this quarter stood just at Rs 190 Crs (1.9% of gold AUM) aided by higher gold prices.
• The company’s consolidated assets under management also rose to Rs 11433 Crs from Rs 9593 Crs recorded in the previous fiscal year.
• The recent diversification into new business areas has gained further traction with new businesses now contributing about 12% of its consolidated AUM. Microfinance subsidiary, Asirvad Microfinance Pvt Ltd, had ended the year with an AUM of Rs 82 Crs, representing a growth of 210% over Rs 322 Crs.
• Commercial vehicle loans and mortgage-based finance (housing loans and loans against property) have contributed Rs 52 Crs to the total AUM. Their contribution in FY 15 was Rs 44.80 Crs.
• Manappuram Finance fiscal net profit up 30%
• NBFCs including Manappuram Finance are now targeting short tenure (3 to 6 months) gold loans instead of earlier one year duration loans. By focusing on short-term loans, auction of gold deposited by defaulting customers could come down. And, this helps in protecting margins. Apart from protecting margins, these shorter duration gold loans also help companies by shielding them against the volatility in gold prices that get more pronounced in longer duration loans. NBFCs, banks focus on shorter tenure gold loans to boost margins
• The company is now looking at increasing its non-loan portfolio. It is aiming at organic and inorganic growth to grow the non-gold loan business, now Rs 1300 Crs. In the next two to three years, it aims to grow it to Rs 4000 Crs. This is being done to reduce concentration risk from gold loans. The Reserve Bank of India has also said it wants large companies to diversify their portfolio, as a single business will lead to this risk.
