Fedbank Financial Services Ltd

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd trades at ₹159, in a confirmed uptrend and 11 weeks into that stage. That is +10.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 90% of a 52-week range of ₹126 to ₹162. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (4 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 11 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹159 it trades +10.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 90% of its 52-week range (₹126–₹162).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 2.6 years the stock moved +11% while the NIFTY 500 moved +25% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (4 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-25) — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: the P/BV sits at the 51st percentile of its own range.

Valuation For a bank we price the book, not the earnings: P/BV is what the market pays for each ₹1 of the bank's net worth. A bank below 1× book is priced below the value of what it owns, net of what it owes.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd trades at 1.9× P/BV, mid-range by its own standards (51st percentile). Its long-run median P/BV is 1.9×, measured across 2.5 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/BV of 1.9× is mid-range by its own standards (51st percentile), against a long-run median of 1.9× measured over 2.5 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year book value grew while the price moved +25.9% — price and book moved together, holding the multiple in its range.

Put together: the multiple is unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the book-value line underneath it, not the multiple.

The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 4.7% on reported income across 15 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.

Stage: Turning around Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −8.2% at the trough to +65.8%, a 3-quarter improving streak, ROE holding at 13.0%. The read is built from 8 quarters across 4 curves, on partial evidence.

Why it matters: growth inflections are where re-ratings start — the curves say a turn is forming, so the question becomes whether the next quarters confirm it.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.

4-Factor Sector Score

48.2/100 — rank 5 of 6 in Finance & Investments - Gold Loan · 75% evidence confidence

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd scores 48.2 out of 100 against the 6 companies it is compared with in Finance & Investments - Gold Loan, ranking 5. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 16.9 + 12.3 + 12.2 + 6.8 = 48.2. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if ROA rolls over or gross NPA rises while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

Revenue For a bank, revenue is everything the franchise earns — interest on the loan book plus fee and other income.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd reported ₹670 Cr of income in the Jun 26 quarter, +29.6% year on year. That is the 11th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 7 years it has compounded at 36.3% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,224 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,376 Cr.

Over 7 years it has compounded at 36.3% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,224 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,376 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹2,224 Cr (+9.2% on the year), capping 7 years at 36.3% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹670 Cr, +29.6% year on year — the 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +13.4% growth against the decade's 36.3% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +13.4% over the last 4 quarters against +18.5%/yr over the last 8 — rolling over; TTM profit +65.8% vs +21.1%/yr — accelerating.

→ Revenue grew — did the net margin hold as it scaled? Next: 17.0% this quarter (+2.5 pp YoY).

Net margin Net margin — what the bank keeps of every ₹100 of revenue after every cost, provision and tax. It is the cleanest single margin we can read for a lender.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd's net margin is 17.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +2.5 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 8 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 8.4% to 15.5%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd's net margin is 17.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +2.5 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 8 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 8.4% to 15.5%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's net margin is 17.0%, +2.5 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 8.4%–15.5%, and FY26's 15.5% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why: the numbers show the net margin move clearly, but the cost lines behind it sit below what we hold — so we state the move without inventing its driver.

Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.

→ The net margin held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +52.0% in the latest quarter.

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd earned ₹114 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +52.0% year on year. It is the 6th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹344 Cr. The 7-year compound rate is 38.1%. That is 17.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹75.0 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹114 Cr, +52.0% year on year — the 6th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹344 Cr (+52.9%), and the 7-year compound rate is 38.1%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +29.6% and the margin +2.5 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +119.7% vs revenue +13.4%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.

→ Profit is up — how clean is the loan book behind it? Next: gross NPA is 1.87%.

Asset quality — the ladder Gross NPA is the slice of the loan book where repayments have stopped. Net NPA is what remains after the money already set aside against those loans. Falling is healing; rising is damage arriving.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd's gross NPA is 1.87% of the loan book in Mar 26, down from 2.02% a year ago. Net of provisions already set aside, 1.28% remains. Across the 11 quarters held here the book has ranged 1.70% to 2.34%. Falling NPAs are a loan book healing; rising NPAs are damage arriving.

Mar 26: gross NPA at 1.87% and net NPA at 1.28%, against 2.02% / 1.22% a year ago. Over the 11 quarters we hold, the book's worst reading was 2.34% and its best is 1.70%.

The synthesis: profit growth at a bank is only as good as the book behind it, and this book is better than a year ago. A note on depth: quarterly provisioning detail is not in our numbers yet, so this ladder reads levels and trend, not the cost of the cleanup.

Why the ladder moved: recoveries, write-offs and slippages each play a part, and that split sits below what we hold — the numbers show the healing; the driver mix does not travel with them.

→ Behind a cleaner book — is the book itself still growing? Next: revenue grew +9.2% in FY26.

The loan book We read the loan book through revenue — when the book grows, revenue grows with it. It is a rough proxy, and we say so: rate moves and fee swings can shift it a few points in any one year.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd's revenue grew +9.2% in FY26 to ₹2,224 Cr, so the book is growing. The latest quarter ran +29.6% year on year. The net margin on that income is 17.0%, +2.5 percentage points against a year ago. Interest income is a proxy for the book; rate moves can shift it a few points in any one year.

FY26 revenue was ₹2,224 Cr, +9.2% on the year, and the latest quarter ran +29.6% year on year. The net margin on that revenue is 17.0% this quarter (+2.5 pp YoY) — growth with a widening margin on it.

The synthesis: a lender compounds when the book grows while the margin holds and the loan book stays clean — gross NPA is the loan-quality read we carry here.

→ Does all of this actually earn its keep on equity? Next: ROE is 13%.

Returns on equity and assets Two numbers rate a bank: ROE — what it earns on shareholder money — and ROA — what it earns on everything it deploys. ROE above ~13–15% earns its keep; below that, growth builds book slowly.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd earns a return on equity of 13% in FY26. Its trough over the ladder below was 7% in FY20. For a lender the balance sheet is the operating asset, so equity return and asset return have to be read together.

FY26 ROE came in at 13%, recovered from a FY20 trough of 7%. On assets, the latest reading is about null% — every ₹100 the bank deploys earns roughly null a year. That clears the bar a bank must beat for its book value to compound.

Why ROE moved: profit compounded 38.1% a year over 7 years while the equity base grew more slowly — earnings recovering faster than book value builds is what lifts ROE off a trough.

The quarterly return-on-equity and return-on-assets curves, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 4.7% on reported income across 15 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

→ Who owns this bank, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Domestic institutions cut 12.5 points over 8 quarters.

Debt

For a bank, borrowings are raw material, not a warning sign — solvency is read through the returns and the loan book. A manufacturer’s debt is a claim against its profits, so the debt-to-equity lens that works everywhere else misleads on a lender and is not applied here.

A manufacturer’s debt is a claim against its profits; a bank’s borrowings are its inventory — money taken in to be lent out. The debt lens that works everywhere else misleads here, so this page does not apply it. The solvency questions for a bank — is the loan book sound, is the equity earning — are read through the loan-book and returns sections above.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Domestic institutions cut 12.5 points over 8 quarters.

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Domestic institutions cut 12.5 points of Fedbank Financial Services Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes domestic institutions to 10.9% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +8.5 points over the same window, to 9.3%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Domestic institutions: −12.5 points over 8 quarters to 10.9%; Foreign institutions: +8.5 points over 8 quarters to 9.3%; Promoters: −0.7 points over 8 quarters to 60.7%.

Why the register moved: rotation — foreign institutions +8.5 points against domestic institutions −12.5 points over 8 quarters, with promoters −0.7 points — one class of institutions handing the register to the other, not a verdict change by the people closest to the numbers.

→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Fedbank Financial Services Ltd: the Z-score is omitted — it was built for manufacturers, not banks, and applying it here would be theatre. The Z-score was built for manufacturers and is not applied to banks and lenders, so solvency here is read from the capital and asset-quality lines instead.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is omitted — it was built for manufacturers, not banks, and applying it here would be theatre.
