There are few key takeaways from the financials of Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd (IREDA) which can be enumerated as under
- In the last 3 years, revenue growth has been steady and also growing. That is evident from the expansion of the revenue pool in sync with the growth in loan book of IREDA. The focus on renewable energy and the relatively comfortable level of NPAs have helped Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd (IREDA).
- Being a financial lending company, it is the net profit margin that would really matter and that has been over 20% showing strong traction in terms of NII growth and also in terms of NIM expansion. Return on assets (ROA) is consistently above 1.5% and that is much better than the median for developmental financial institutions.
- The company has had below average sweating assets, but it may not too relevant to a financial loan provider. However, the ROA for the latest year at 1.71% is fairly attractive, but here again, the assumption is that the latest year data sustains.
Let us turn to the valuations part. On the latest year standalone EPS of 3.78, the stock is available in the IPO at a P/E of 8.5 times, which is attractive if the current growth rate can be sustained in profits. However, on a weighted average basis, the P/E is still more attractive at around 6X earnings. That should sober further if you consider forward earnings. Also, the ROA at 1.71% is in a position to justify such valuations for the time being. But a quick look at qualitative factors is also warranted.
Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd (IREDA) brings to the table deep insights into the renewable energy space in India, an area where India still has a long way to go as it moves toward net zero in the next few decades. The gross NPAs and net NPA levels are fairly low, with net NPAs at below 2% in the latest year. Its digitized model will also make the model scalable. The stock looks like a solid stock with something for shareholders on the table. A long term view and a higher risk appetite would be called for, but it is a stock to participate in; at least as a proxy for the big renewable push of Government of India.
