Recommendation: ✅ Existing Shareholders: Subscribe to Rights ⚠️ New Investors: Growth Largely Priced-In FY27E TP: LKR 61.00 (~9% downside from CMP) 📌 Rights Issue Strategy Existing Shareholders – Subscribe ✍️ - Rights priced at LKR 26.50, ~130% upside. Trade Rights Smartly 💰: Rights Intrinsic value LKR 12.90; sell above LKR 12.90, buy below LKR 11.30. 🔹 Aggressive Lending Growth Backed by Rights Funds Rights issue raising LKR 2bn strengthens capital adequacy to sustain MSME-focused lending. 🏢 Branch Expansion to Target Underpenetrated MSMEs 4 new branches added in FY25; 10 more planned in FY26 for semi-urban, high-yield segments. 🛡️ Strong Asset Quality Prudent provisioning maintains robust asset quality despite rapid growth. 💸 Valuations Trades at forward PER 12.3x and PBV 2.0x. Forecasted ROE 20% remains attractive but largely priced in. ⚠️ Investment Risks MSME sector exposure, rapid RWA growth, inflation-driven tightening, slower credit demand, competition from banks/NBFIs.
