Price Performance

Basis of our Recommendation

Can Fin Homes is strategically positioning itself for growth through a focus on expanding its retail housing franchise and enhancing operational efficiency via digital transformation. Management's commitment to maintaining retail loans above 70% of the total portfolio and targeting a 14% AUM growth for FY27 reflects a disciplined approach to capital allocation and market penetration. The company's robust asset quality and conservative lending practices support a favorable margin outlook, with expectations of NIMs remaining above 3.75%. However, challenges such as elevated loan book run-downs and competitive pressures from private HFCs could impact growth. The broader affordable housing finance sector is experiencing strong demand driven by urbanization and government support, which aligns with Vista's forecast of stable revenue growth and improving margins. Over the next 12-24 months, key opportunities include the successful rollout of new technology platforms and branch expansions, while watchpoints include potential regulatory changes and the impact of rising borrowing costs. Overall, Vista's outlook remains positive, with an expected upside supported by Can Fin's strategic initiatives and favorable market conditions

Analysts' Viewpoint
Can Fin Homes is leveraging a new core technology platform to enhance operational efficiency and support its growth trajectory, with plans to open 28 new branches in FY27. Analysts highlight the company's focus on achieving 14% AUM growth, supported by strong housing demand and broad-based disbursement growth across regions. However, elevated portfolio attrition and competitive pressures from private HFCs and NBFCs pose challenges to loan growth. The transition to a quarterly reset has increased prepayments, impacting AUM growth, but management remains optimistic about maintaining NIMs and achieving disbursement targets.
