Good, bad, or gruesome?<\/h3>\n<p>Good (Potential to become great if it can make its customer base sticky). Policybazaar is an online insurance distributor of insurance products and similarly, Paisabazaar is a distributor of loans. There is no additional capital required to scale up the business once the platform is created.<\/p>\n<p>However, the growth prospects are very dependent on its ability to attract traffic and conversation. Stream of cash flows can\u2019t be assumed sticky.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><u>Opportunity Size:<\/u><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Policybazaar:<\/strong> Premiums via the online channel stand much lower at 1% for India versus 5.5% for China and 13.3% for the US. Penetration levels remain the lowest for India across most segments. The rise in urban population and rapid digital adoption, aided by a rise in smartphone users, would drive incremental growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paisabazaar:<\/strong> The penetration of consumer loans stands much lower at 16.7% versus 80% in the US and 56% in China. Digital consumer lending disbursals form 22% of the total versus 56% in the US. Improving financial literacy and rising Internet penetration would support growth in online credit platforms. Consumer credit loans are expected to grow at a steady-state over FY20\u201330. This would be led by credit cards and personal loans which is likely to see a ~19% and ~12% CAGR, respectively, over this period.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><u>Challenges:<\/u><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Increasing competition with multiple fintech entering the market that provides innovative solutions to cater to customer needs.<\/li>\n<li>Many insurers and lenders are coming up with their own digital platforms. Failing to attract partners or continue existing partnerships could impact the business.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"border: 2px solid #04B404; padding: 10px; background-color: #cef6ce; border-radius: 30px 5px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Valuation \u2013 High Risk, High return?<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneyworks4me.com\/indianstocks\/small-cap\/sector\/e-commerce\/pb-fintech\/company-info\">PB Fintech\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> proposed IPO valuation stands at ~Rs. 44,000 Cr for a sale of ~Rs. 900 Cr (annualized) implying a P\/S of ~49x. Since the company doesn\u2019t report profit yet, we can\u2019t value it at the Price to Earning or P\/E ratio.<\/p>\n<p>At the operating profit level, current margins look subdued to the early stage of growth where it spends heavily on marketing and promotion. So let us assume steady-state 50% operating margins for the business like Naukri (Naukri is an established player in web aggregator, growth rate and quality of business not comparable but margins profile can be similar). Even on that assumption 3 years, forward Price to Earnings can range from 50-70x assuming 40% CAGR growth.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the growth that the company can deliver such valuations are steep for a business that has a platform and is an aggregator for financial products. Online distribution business can grow without requiring much capital investment so the only saving grace is that business-wise the company doesn\u2019t require additional capital.<\/p>\n<p>Headline valuation looks quite steep, the upside risk with high-growth business is that growth can be exponential in the initial years or a company can expand the scope of its business by venturing into different products\/markets or acquiring them. For example, Paisabazaar was an expansion into another addressable market of loans and financial products.<\/p>\n<p>Because the company is a <u>high growth<\/u>, as well as it is\u00a0<u>present in an attractive sector<\/u>, it is valued at very steep price. It will remain a high-risk and high-return investment for a small portion of a portfolio. Such high-risk ventures are usually funded by private equity players that manage smaller, \u201criskier\u201d portions of HNI or institutional investors\u2019 portfolios; in that case, why should it be any different for a retail investor?<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you like the business model or willing to accept high risk<\/strong>, for \u2018potential\u2019 high return (high risk doesn\u2019t guarantee high return), you can<span style=\"color: #008000;\">\u00a0<strong>SUBSCRIBE<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0in IPO, restricting it to 1% of 2% of your portfolio<\/p>\n<p><u>For others,\u00a0<\/u><strong><u>Subscribe<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<u>for a listing gain investment<\/u>\u00a0and later deploy the funds to more predictable, undervalued stocks.
