*Results Down, Credibility Continues To Decrease: L&amp;T Finance Holdings (LTFH.IN) [LTFH] reported FY 1Q22 bottom-line results of 1.8 bn, declining INR 890 mn (33.3%) linked quarter. Results were weaker across the board;  and  *Accelerating Negative Credit Delta: Inclusive of NCOs of INR 8.5 bn or 3.62% annualized total loans, we note that net new NPLs skyrocketed INR 12.0 bn or increasing an eye popping 106.7% on an annualized basis during the period. By our calculation, if the large blip in credit continues, LTFH  management ought to think about adding another INR 69 bn plus to the reserve. A hit this large represents over seven years of PBT or 6.3x average equity.

L&T Finance Holdings – Struggling To Survive

*NIM Driven Bottom-line: L&amp;T Finance Holdings (LTFH.IN) [LTFH] reported FY 3Q21 operating results of INR 2.9 bn, increasing INR 260 mn (9.8%) linked quarter. Much of LTFH’s strength during the quarter was attributed to net interest income growth of INR 2.1 bn (15.8%) associated with improving cost of funds (down 72 bp linked quarter) on liquidity improvement.*Credit Risk Challenges: While LTFH would like to have the investment community believe that it has turned the corner with credit, that notion is patently false. Inclusive of INR 12.8 mn in NCOs, we calculate a continued acceleration of net new NPL growth to 101% on an annualized basis – which is troubling. We calculate that reserves need a boost close to INR 80 bn or nearly five years of pre-tax earnings; and   *Banking License May Be Out of Reach: LTFH's Tier-1 ratio was 17.8% at FY 3Q21. However, if our reserve shortfall analysis is correct, LTFH’s stated Tier 1 capital ratio will be quite challenged, leaving it short of the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) plan for larger NBFCs to become banks.
