SBI Cards & Payment Services Ltd. - IPO



Initial Public Offering (IPO)   SBI Cards and Payment Services Ltd.




Company Background


SBI Cards & Payment Services Limited (SBI Cards), a subsidiary of State Bank of India (SBI), is a non-deposit taking NBFC and one among the two credit card issuers registered as an NBFC and will become the only listed company in India in this space. 

SBI Cards is the 2nd largest credit card issuer in India, with 18.1% market share in terms of the number of credit cards outstanding as of November 30, 2019. 

SBI Cards offers various types of credit cards considering the need of retail clients (viz. Lifestyle Cards, Rewards, Shopping, Travel and Fuel). 

It also offers corporate cards and is the largest co-brand credit card issuer in India. It also issues a card in partnership with smaller or regional banks.


Investment Rationale


Immense growth potential is given extremely low penetration and large untapped SBI customers: 



(i) Significantly underpenetrated Indian credit card market; number of credit cards per 100 people is 3, whereas in developed/developing countries it is >30. 

(ii) As on Q3FY2020, credit card to debit card ratio was 3.7% for SBI Cards (vs. peers viz. HDFC Bank - 45%, Axis Bank - 28% and ICICI Bank - 18%), which clearly indicates huge scope for mining SBI Bank customers.


Healthy return ratios; Stable asset quality despite strong advances growth: 



SBI Cards has reported average ROE/ROA of 29%/4.3% over the last 3 years. Advances grew at CAGR of 34% over FY2017-19; however asset quality remained stable in the range of 2.3-2.4%.


Outlook & Valuation: 



At the upper end of the price band, SBI Cards is valued at 45.5X of 9MFY2020 annualised earnings. 

Although the valuations are a bit on the higher side, we are positive on the future outlook of the company given favourable industry scenario, large untapped SBI Bank customers and strong financial track record.
