Can Fin Homes Ltd

The Q2 FY27 earnings call for Can Fin Homes Limited highlighted the completion of the IT transformation project, which went fully live across all branches by October 1st. The transition caused a temporary drop in disbursements, particularly in August and September, with Q2 disbursements at INR2,375 crores, down from INR2,600 crores in Q1. Management noted that disbursements in affected branches dropped by 70-75% during implementation but recovered to 80-90% of prior levels in subsequent months. The company adjusted for INR29 crores in cancellations due to NHB guidelines and reported strong demand in regions like Karnataka, with disbursements stabilizing at INR230-250 crores. New regulatory requirements, including wage bill compliance and insurance commission changes, were addressed, though the latter had minimal impact on profitability. The company also mentioned receiving INR1,350 crores in NHB refinance and plans to leverage this for growth. Management guided for INR13,000 crores in annual disbursements, with Q3 and Q4 expected to recover the Q2 shortfall. Operational efficiencies from the IT upgrade are expected to boost sales team capacity, with plans to increase the sales team from 90 to 150 members by year-end. The company also discussed prepayment trends, noting a decline from INR1,857 crores in Q1 to INR1,795 crores in Q2, and emphasized maintaining NIM and spread targets of 2.75-3.75%.
