HFC stock prices have corrected on margin concerns due to rising bond yields. Lending rate hikes are likely. This should lift portfolio spreads, but incremental spreads may stay under pressure. Lower incremental spreads vs. back book spread may weigh on margin outlook for most HFCs (ex LICHF). Valuations of HFCs are correlated to incremental spreads & have likely bottomed, but sharp re-rating is unlikely till bond yields stabilize & incremental spreads improve
Within HFCs, we prefer PNB Housing as strong loan growth should offset modest spread compression and drive earnings growth. At LICHF, spreads are likely bottoming out and valuations at 1.6x FY19E BV appears attractive, but we retain Hold, given limited near term triggers and as re-rating is unlikely till bond yields stabilize
