Fiscal YearRevenue (INR)Operating Profit (INR)Net Income (INR)Operating Profit Margin (%)Net Profit Margin (%)FY 20241,428,800,0003,560,200,0003,049,000,000~249.2%~213.5%

Observations:

• Exceptionally high margins are observed, with a notable dip in net margin during FY 2022 (19.7%) before recovery in subsequent years.

• Such margins suggest strong operating leverage and effective cost management.

4.4 Balance Sheet & Capital Structure

Asset Analysis

The balance sheet categorizes assets into current and non-current components. The overall net assets have grown consistently:

Fiscal YearTotal Net Assets (INR)Investments (INR)Current Assets (INR)20207,809,811,00017,757,277,0001,699,885,000202111,304,700,00026,350,100,0001,910,900,000202212,887,400,00035,660,800,0002,361,700,000202317,435,242,00050,762,879,0003,371,237,000202421,977,400,00066,329,200,0003,969,200,000

Observations:

• Significant growth in investments drives the expansion of the asset base.

• Current Assets have increased steadily, supporting improved liquidity (see next section).

Liabilities & Equity

The evolution of shareholders’ equity is as follows:

Fiscal YearTotal Equity (INR)Share Capital (INR)Reserves & Surplus (INR)FY 20207,809,811,0007,279,491,000554,856,000FY 202111,304,900,0008,410,400,0002,911,500,000FY 202212,887,400,0009,085,700,0003,806,300,000FY 202317,435,242,0009,422,306,0008,069,537,000FY 202421,977,400,0009,720,400,00011,977,800,000

Current liabilities (shown as negative values) alongside provisions illustrate a high debt-equity interplay, with a calculated debt-to-equity ratio of approximately 2.24.

5. Liquidity, Solvency & Efficiency

5.1 Working Capital

Working capital is computed as current assets minus current liabilities:

Fiscal YearCurrent Assets (INR)Current Liabilities (INR)Working Capital (INR)20201,699,885,000-6,811,872,0008,511,757,00020211,910,900,000-7,918,800,0009,829,700,00020222,361,700,000-11,611,000,00013,972,700,00020233,371,237,000-15,594,542,00018,965,779,00020243,969,200,000-20,025,600,00023,994,800,000

Observation: An improving liquidity position, albeit with overall low current and quick ratios (~0.20–0.25), indicates that current liabilities far exceed current assets. However, the company maintains a robust overall capital structure.

5.2 Liquidity Ratios

With inventory excluded (typically zero for insurance companies), the current and quick ratios are:

Fiscal YearCurrent Assets (INR)Current Liabilities (INR)Current RatioQuick RatioFY 20201,699,885,0006,811,872,0000.250.25FY 20211,910,900,0007,918,800,0000.240.24FY 20222,361,700,00011,611,000,0000.200.20FY 20233,371,237,00015,594,542,0000.220.22FY 20243,969,200,00020,025,600,0000.200.20

5.3 Solvency & Leverage

For FY 2024, key solvency metrics are:

• Debt-to-Equity Ratio:
  [ \text{(Current Liabilities + Provisions)} / \text{Equity} \approx (20,025,600,000 + 29,126,700,000) / 21,977,400,000 \approx 2.24 ]

• Interest Coverage:
  Not available due to lack of explicit interest expense data.

5.4 Efficiency Ratios

Using FY 2024 figures as an example:

• Asset Turnover Ratio:
  [ \text{Revenue} / \text{Total Assets} = 1,428,800,000 / 21,977,400,000 \approx 0.065 ]

• Inventory Turnover: Not applicable; Days Sales Outstanding (DSO): Data not available.

Note: These sensitivity values are indicative.

6.2 Relative Valuation

Using FY 2024 data, the key multiples are:

MetricCalculation BasisApproximate ValueP/EMarket Cap (INR 32,415 million) / Net Profit (INR 3,049 million)~10.6xEV/EBITDAMarket Cap (INR 32,415 million) / Operating Profit (INR 3,560 million)~9.1xP/SMarket Cap (INR 32,415 million) / Revenue (INR 1,429 million)~22.7x

Comparative industry ranges for similar companies are approximately P/E of 10–15x and EV/EBITDA of 8–12x. The high P/S ratio reflects the unique revenue structure in the insurance industry.

6.3 Valuation Justification & Margin of Safety

Using a conservative P/E multiple of 15x:

10.2 Valuation & Margin of Safety

10.3 Risk-Reward Profile & Recommendation

Potential Catalysts for Price Appreciation

Overall Investment Recommendation

RecommendationRationaleHOLDWhile the company exhibits strong financial fundamentals, robust operating performance, and an attractive valuation with a significant margin of safety, the unresolved governance issues, regulatory risks, and competitive pressures necessitate a cautious approach. The balanced risk-reward profile supports a hold recommendation until further clarity on governance and market developments is achieved.

11. Conclusion

Care Health Insurance stands out in the competitive Indian health insurance sector, driven by robust financial performance and strategic growth initiatives. Its strong equity base and innovative product portfolio underscore its ability to create shareholder value. However, significant liquidity challenges, complex governance issues, and regulatory risks necessitate continued caution. With an intrinsic undervaluation and a margin of safety around 29%, the company presents a mixed investment opportunity best summarized by a “hold” recommendation at this stage.

Summary

The profitability of Care Health Insurance over the past five fiscal years shows strong operational performance with extremely high operating profit margins and robust net income figures in most periods. While FY 2020 and FY 2021 demonstrate exceptional margins, the marked drop in net profit margin in FY 2022 implies a temporary dip in profitability relative to revenue, possibly due to increased expenses or non-operational factors. The subsequent recovery in FY 2023 and FY 2024 indicates financial resilience and effective management.

• FY 2024 and FY 2023 appear with lower total expenses (INR 888.3 million) compared to FY 2022 and FY 2021. This change suggests a possible restructuring in cost allocations or changes in business scale/operations between FY 2022 and the more recent periods.

• Additional expenses—such as those for CSR activities, bad debts, and non-insurance business costs—remain relatively stable over the later fiscal years, indicating consistent management of ancillary costs.

• The significant increase in the expense base in FY 2022 (INR 3,258.2 million) is primarily driven by a substantial contribution to policyholders’ accounts, reflecting either a larger volume of policies or changes in regulatory/capital requirements during that year.

Analysis of Working Capital Position of Care Health Insurance (2020-2024)

Working Capital Calculation

The working capital is calculated as the difference between current assets and current liabilities. Note that the current liabilities are presented as negative values, hence the working capital is computed as:

Working Capital = Current Assets - (Current Liabilities)

The table below shows the calculation for each fiscal year:

Fiscal YearCurrent Assets (INR)Current Liabilities (INR)Working Capital (INR)20201,699,885,000-6,811,872,0008,511,757,00020211,910,900,000-7,918,800,0009,829,700,00020222,361,700,000-11,611,000,00013,972,700,00020233,371,237,000-15,594,542,00018,965,779,00020243,969,200,000-20,025,600,00023,994,800,000

Year-over-Year Change

The changes in working capital over the analysis period indicate an improving liquidity position, where the company increasingly covers short-term liabilities with its short-term assets. The incremental growth in working capital between each fiscal year is summarized below:

PeriodIncrease in Working Capital (INR)2020 to 20219,829,700,000 - 8,511,757,000 = 1,317,943,0002021 to 202213,972,700,000 - 9,829,700,000 = 4,143,000,0002022 to 202318,965,779,000 - 13,972,700,000 = 4,993,079,0002023 to 202423,994,800,000 - 18,965,779,000 = 5,029,021,000

Summary

• From FY 2020 to FY 2024, the working capital position improved steadily.

• A notable jump is observed between FY 2021 and FY 2022, followed by consistent increases in subsequent years.

• This trend suggests that Care Health Insurance has been strengthening its liquidity by enhancing its current assets relative to its current liabilities.

Observations

• The evolution of total shareholders’ equity shows a notable increase from FY 2020 to FY 2024. This growth is driven largely by increases in share capital and, particularly, the scale of reserves and surplus.

• The liabilities section (represented by current liabilities and provisions) shows higher absolute values relative to equity, consistent with the company’s asset structure. However, specific long-term debt components are not separately identified in the available filings.

Data consolidated from publicly available financial filings (Care Health Insurance) and corroborated by secondary financial reporting tools.

Summary

The analysis distinguishes between the evolution of equity components and the nature of liabilities (predominantly short-term obligations as captured in current liabilities and provisions) for Care Health Insurance over the last five fiscal years.

Evaluation of Investing Activities of Care Health Insurance (Last 5 Years)

Overview

The available financial data for Care Health Insurance covers detailed balance sheets and income statements but does not provide a dedicated cash flow statement or explicit line items detailing capital expenditures (CapEx), acquisitions, or divestitures. The investing activities can be inferred from the Investments and Fixed Assets line items on the balance sheets. However, explicit details regarding new acquisitions, divestitures, or the direct impact on free cash flow are not disclosed in the provided documents.

Key Observations

Summary of Findings

• The substantial and steady increase in investments indicates a strategic emphasis on growing the investment portfolio.

• Fixed Assets have remained at a relatively low level, with moderate annual changes, suggesting limited new capital expenditure or replacement investments.

• No explicit information is provided on acquisitions or divestitures. As such, any impact of these on the free cash flow is inconclusive.

• Without a dedicated cash flow statement, the direct impact on free cash flow from investing activities cannot be accurately assessed.

Liquidity Ratios Analysis for Care Health Insurance (Past Five Years)

Liquidity Ratios Calculation

The liquidity ratios are calculated using the following formulas:

• Current Ratio = Current Assets / |Current Liabilities| • Quick Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventory) / |Current Liabilities| (Given inventory is not reported for an insurance company, it is assumed to be zero, hence Quick Ratio ≈ Current Ratio)

The data below is taken from the extracted balance sheet details for the past five fiscal years.

Fiscal YearCurrent Assets (INR)Current Liabilities (INR)Current RatioQuick RatioFY 20201,699,885,0006,811,872,0000.250.25FY 20211,910,900,0007,918,800,0000.240.24FY 20222,361,700,00011,611,000,0000.200.20FY 20233,371,237,00015,594,542,0000.220.22FY 20243,969,200,00020,025,600,0000.200.20

Trend Analysis

• Consistently Low Ratios: Across all five fiscal years, both the current and quick ratios remain significantly below 1, indicating that the company’s current assets are substantially lower than its current liabilities.

• Gradual Decline: While FY 2020 and FY 2021 show ratios around 0.25 and 0.24 respectively, there is a decline to approximately 0.20 in FY 2022 and FY 2024. FY 2023 shows a slight uptick to about 0.22, but the overall trend is downward.

• Implications: These low liquidity ratios suggest that Care Health Insurance may face challenges in meeting short-term obligations solely through current assets. However, it is also important to consider that insurance companies typically do not maintain significant inventories, and other liquidity measures and cash flow forecasts should be reviewed for a complete picture.

Calculation: (20,025,600,000 + 29,126,700,000) / 21,977,400,000 ≈ 2.24

Interpretation: A debt-to-equity ratio of approximately 2.24 indicates that for every INR 1 of equity, the company finances about INR 2.24 through debt. This relatively high leverage may signal aggressive financing practices which could increase financial risk, particularly in rising interest rate environments. (Reference: Care Health Insurance)

Interest Coverage Ratio

ItemValue (INR)Operating Profit3,560,200,000Interest ExpenseNot AvailableInterest Coverage RatioNot Computable

Note: The provided financial data does not include interest expense details, preventing calculation of the interest coverage ratio.

Interpretation: Without the interest expense figure, it is not possible to directly compute the interest coverage ratio. This ratio is critical to understanding the company’s ability to meet its interest obligations from operating income. The absence of data means that a full assessment of interest coverage cannot be performed.

Summary of Findings

Solvency RatioValue/ObservationDebt-to-Equity Ratio~2.24 – Indicates a higher reliance on debt financingInterest Coverage RatioNot calculable due to lack of interest expense data

The high debt-to-equity ratio suggests that Care Health Insurance is using significant financial leverage. However, the inability to compute the interest coverage ratio means that evaluating its ability to meet interest obligations remains incomplete based only on the provided information.

Analysis of Profitability Ratios for Care Health Insurance (Past 5 Years)

Below is a summary table of key profitability ratios for Care Health Insurance extracted from available annual financial data. Note that some of the computed margins appear unusually high because of the nature of the company’s revenue recognition (investment income, reinsurance-related components, etc.). Ratios are computed using the reported figures from the complete income statements and balance sheets for each fiscal year.

*For FY 2023, total assets were estimated from the sum of Application of Funds and Current Assets.

Comparison with Industry Averages and Key Competitors

While direct published averages vary by market and segment, typical profitability metrics in the insurance sector are generally as follows (see Wikipedia and industry reports):

• Net Margin: Often in the range of 5–10% for traditional underwriting operations.

• Operating Margin: Usually lower, since most insurers have significant claim payouts; high margins above 100% are atypical and may indicate heavy reliance on investment income or non-underwriting gains.

• ROE: A competitive range is typically 10–15%.

• ROA: Often in the range of 2–5%.

Observations:

• The extremely high operating and net margins in certain years (FY 2020, FY 2023, FY 2024) are unusual compared to industry norms. This could be due to the revenue mix being driven by investment income along with significant miscellaneous insurance components.

• ROE values range from around 0.9% to 17.5% over the five-year period. While FY 2023 and FY 2024 appear stronger, FY 2022’s ROE is very low compared to industry averages.

• ROA, derived from available balance sheet data, falls within a typical band (approximately 3–5% in stronger years), though FY 2022 is an outlier at very low levels.

These variances may be attributed to the unique business model of Care Health Insurance and the timing of investment income relative to insurance premium collections. Further analysis with a deeper dive into underwriting results and segmentation would be necessary to fully understand these outcomes.

Valuation Ratios Assessment for Care Health Insurance

Overview

The following tables synthesize computed valuation ratios for Care Health Insurance based on available FY 2024 figures and provide a comparative context with historical periods and industry averages. Note that several assumptions have been applied to approximate certain ratios (e.g. EV is assumed here to be near the market capitalization given limited net debt details; EBITDA is approximated by operating profit due to lack of depreciation details). Revenue for insurance companies may reflect investment income and other flows, so the Price-to-Sales ratio should be interpreted with caution. Inline calculations use the following FY 2024 data extracted from the filings:

• Market Valuation (Latest Valuation): ~32,415 million INR • FY 2024 Profit for the Year: 3,049 million INR • FY 2024 Total Equity (Book Value): 21,977 million INR • FY 2024 Revenue: 1,429 million INR • FY 2024 Operating Profit (approximated as EBITDA): 3,560 million INR

Note: All values are in million INR. The high P/S ratio is influenced by the accounting treatment of premium and investment income for insurance companies.

Key Considerations

• The FY 2024 improvement in profitability (profit increased from ~1,022 million INR in FY 2023 to ~3,049 million INR in FY 2024) has compressed the P/E ratio compared to historical periods.

• The P/B ratio of ~1.48 aligns with steady book value growth and compares well with industry norms.

• The EV/EBITDA approximation is subject to the assumption that operating profit approximates EBITDA; detailed debt and depreciation figures are not available.

• The high P/S ratio (~22.7) reflects the nature of revenue recognition for insurance companies, where significant investment income may be included and premium income is usually treated separately. Users should compare this metric with peer adjustments and alternative revenue measures.

Conclusion

Based on current FY 2024 figures, Care Health Insurance exhibits a P/E and P/B ratio that fall within common industry ranges for insurers, while its EV/EBITDA is moderate. The P/S ratio appears high due to the unique revenue composition. Compared to historical values, improving profitability has led to a lower P/E ratio while book value trends remain consistent with industry averages.

RatioRequired DataData AvailabilityDebt-to-EBITDATotal Interest-Bearing Debt (short- and long-term), EBITDADetailed debt composition not provided in available filingsEBITDA to Interest ExpenseEBITDA and Interest ExpenseInterest expense data not explicitly available

Analysis & Observations

• EBITDA Approximation:

  • Operating Profit of 3,560,200,000 INR is assumed to approximate EBITDA.

• Debt Estimation Challenges:

  • The balance sheet provides figures for current liabilities and provisions, but it does not clearly delineate the portion that represents interest-bearing debt.

  • Without explicit details on long-term borrowings or other debt components, it is difficult to compute a true Debt-to-EBITDA ratio.

• Interest Expense Data:

  • The income statement does not include a separate line item for interest expense. While the Income From Investments section shows interest income components, the data required to calculate the EBITDA to Interest Expense (coverage) ratio is not provided.

• Inference on Financial Health:

  • Based on the strong operating profit, the company appears to generate significant earnings relative to its revenue. However, the inability to isolate debt and interest obligations limits a definitive assessment of its leverage and debt service ability.

Conclusion

Due to the absence of explicit information on interest-bearing debt and interest expense, it is not possible to accurately calculate the Debt-to-EBITDA and EBITDA to Interest Expense ratios. A more detailed breakdown of the liability structure and interest expense is necessary to assess the company’s debt servicing capability.
