The company's shares have significantly underperformed the larger market and rivals as a result of the twin blows of declining growth and postponed structure simplification, including the delay and penalty from the regulatory end. Shares of the company are currently trading at an FY24E P/EV of 1.6x, which gives a strong franchise very little structural value (implied 6x FY25 VNB). According to the brokerage's opinion, Max Financial's share price should experience sustained re-rating as it advances in structure simplification and experiences growth revival. said Emkay Global.
