Sensitivity & Scenario Analysis
The sensitivity and scenario analysis – the stress cases and the resilience of returns underpinning FluxCap.
FY2031 EBITDA sensitivity — cost of risk × portfolio yield
| Cost of risk vs plan | Yield -10% | Yield -5% | Yield +0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| -2bp | 868 | 1 023 | 1 178 |
| -1bp | 819 | 974 | 1 129 |
| +0bp | 770 | 925 | 1 080 |
| +1bp | 721 | 876 | 1 031 |
| +2bp | 672 | 827 | 982 |
| +3bp | 623 | 778 | 933 |
Reading: at plan yield, each +100bp of sustained cost of risk
removes ≈R63m of FY2031 EBITDA. A simultaneous 10% yield compression
(e.g. regulatory cap revision or competitive pricing) and +200bp CoR
reduces FY2031 EBITDA to R644m — still comfortably solvent but below the
R735m exit-cushion threshold identified in Section 23.
Scenario cases — EBITDA across the plan
| Scenario (Rm) | FY2027 | FY2028 | FY2029 | FY2030 | FY2031 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base | (28) | 42 | 210 | 520 | 1 080 |
| Downside (rev −20%, CoR +300bp) | (47) | (27) | 31 | 136 | 355 |
| Severe (rev −35%, CoR +600bp) | (59) | (78) | (102) | (150) | (188) |
| Upside (rev +10%, CoR −100bp) | (21) | 72 | 288 | 688 | 1 397 |
- Downside (revenue −20%, CoR +300bp): EBITDA
remains negative through FY2028 (−R120m cumulative deeper than base) and
reaches only R413m by FY2031. The structure survives — coverage
covenants are breached in FY2029 under this case, triggering growth
throttling rather than default; the equity cushion absorbs the deeper
losses. Exit MOIC at 6.5x falls to approximately 1.1x. - Severe (revenue −35%, CoR +600bp): EBITDA never
exceeds R48m and FY2031 lands at −R141m. This case is not survivable on
the base funding plan: it requires either a second equity raise of
R300–450m in FY2029 or an orderly book run-off, which the short asset
duration makes feasible — the book self-liquidates ~70% within 12
months, allowing debt repayment ahead of equity loss crystallisation.
This is the honest answer to ‘what if it fails’: lenders are
structurally protected by asset duration; equity bears the
loss. - Upside (revenue +10%, CoR −100bp): FY2031 EBITDA
of R1,486m; exit equity value approximately R4.9bn; MOIC 6.8x. Presented
for completeness, not for underwriting.
The scenario architecture reflects a lender’s true risk anatomy:
short asset duration is the deepest protection in the structure. Unlike
a project-finance asset, a consumer-credit book can be throttled within
weeks and self-liquidates within months, converting a solvency problem
into a shrinkage problem if caught early. The covenant package (Section
22) is designed to force that early catch.
