4QFY15: Pronounced weakness poses questions

Cognizant Technology

amid weak currencies, seasonal sluggishness and client-specific headwinds

HCL Technologies

Confluence of cross currency headwinds, budget seasonality

Hexaware Technologies

Continued depreciation of global currencies v/s the USD, and to a lesser extent, 4Q
seasonality were the anticipated headwinds to performance. Revenue and profit
warnings from multiple companies ensued in due course. HCLT highlighted currency
and TCS seasonality, whereas others cited additional pressures:
n MTCL cited delay in commencement of projects at two clients in Retail and CPG
vertical. That is also likely to impact operating margins.
n KPIT cited hit over and above cross currencies to revenue, and more
significantly, to profitability, some of which could percolate into FY16 as well.
n PSYS cited muted growth in 4Q compared to earlier expectation of robust
performance, led by change in business priorities of one of its large customers in
the Product Engineering segment. Margins too, would see some pressure due to
ongoing investments in R&D and S&M.
n We expect TECHMs near term performance to remain soft, with Telecom taking
a breather from a number of high growth quarters. Margins are under pressure
from multiple headwinds wage hikes, integration of LCC acquisition and visa
costs in 1QFY16.
n TCS has refrained from sharing its outlook for FY16. By this time last year, we
already had a re-iteration of growth acceleration in FY15 over FY14 (which
eventually did not happen).
n Separately, NITEC ran into a conflict with one of its APAC clients, resulting in
provision of USD10m from unbilled revenues. We expect revenue growth to
remain marginal otherwise, with some uptick in profitability.

March 2015 Results Preview | Sector: Technology

So, is all well with the industry?


This is a pertinent question, considering news flow during the quarter. However,
against this backdrop, we have the following:
n NASSCOM guided 12-14% growth in industry exports in FY16, similar to the
growth number in FY15.
n Accenture kick-started the earnings season for the industry, beating the higher
end of its revenue guidance (in CC terms) and upgrading its outlook for the year.
The common theme binding the optimism in growth rates across the two entities is
the burgeoning prominence of digital technologies. With a base of USD6b+ in digital
technologies / services, Accenture is ahead of the curve in terms of both
investments and scale. While the total dollars spent on technology services are not
growing significantly, the spending mix may well be changing fast, demanding
readiness from providers. Select pockets notably Insurance and Energy are
witnessing secular pressures in spending, which will be an overhang on growth.

Expect HCLT to report sanguine CC growth, TECHM to lag


n

While the impact from cross currencies may be most pronounced for HCLT
(~280bp on QoQ USD revenue growth), we expect 3.8% QoQ CC growth, the
highest in tier-I IT, with TCS, INFO and WPRO expected to grow ~2.5% and
TECHM likely to remain flat in constant currency organic terms.
Across tier-II, we expect HEXW to continue with its momentum and estimate 5%
QoQ CC revenue growth. We expect growth to remain tepid across MTCL, KPIT,
MPHL and PSYS.
As far as margins are concerned, the worst hit would be TECHM, with
headwinds from wage hikes (effective January 1), cross currency and integration
with LCC amounting to 300bp+. We estimate 100bp margin decline at HCLT,
range-bound margins at TCS and WPRO and 60bp QoQ decline at INFO.
Across tier-II, PSYS and MTCL are expected to report flattish margins while KPIT,
HEXW and MPHL are expected to report margin contraction. On an aggregate
basis, tier-II is expected to report 30bp margin contraction.

(Wait and) watch for INFOs commentary, WPROs guidance


n

April 2015

INFO will buck the trend of kicking off the earnings season by reporting only in
the fourth week. However, its guidance for CY16 and plan on sharing excess
cash with shareholders will be keenly anticipated.
1Q has traditionally been a seasonally weak quarter for WPRO, made up for by
progress through the remainder of the year, with 4Q being stronger. However,
Energy vertical softness has led to uninspiring 1-3% QoQ outlook for 4QFY15,
and if 1QFY16 outlook is not robust, WPRO may lag industry growth yet again.
TCS has given away little as far as its growth prospects for FY16 go, while
commentary on the overall environment has remained positive. Watch out for
its outlook on FY16 growth.

March 2015 Results Preview | Sector: Technology

Prefer tier-I over tier-II; INFO, TECHM and HCLT are our top picks
We continue to prefer tier-I IT over tier-II, after convergence of valuation multiples
in recent quarters. Our preference in tier-I is for stocks with healthy prospects in
next-gen technologies and with differentiated growth drivers. INFO, TECHM and
HCLT are our preferred bets in the tier-I space. While we have no Buy ratings in tierII IT from a one-year return perspective, MTCL and PSYS are preferred business
models from a long term view.

For 1QCY15, CTSH guided for at least USD2.88b revenue, implying


5% QoQ growth. Excluding revenues from TriZetto, this implies only
~1.25% QoQ organic growth. We believe the weakness is due to
seasonally weak 1Q as well as currency movements. This implies a
CQGR of 3.9% for the remainder of the year to meet the outlook.
2Q-4Q CQGR of 3.9% is below CTSHs history of 4.1-6.8% 2Q-4Q
CQGR guidance, considering Trizetto acquisition is expected to grow
in mid-single digits in CY15. CTSH has also built in risk adjustments
for the guidance this year post its downward revision in CY14.
We revenue to grow by 4% QoQ to USD2.85b in 1QCY15. This is
below the guided range to cater for cross currency impacts.
We expect 40bp QoQ contraction in EBITDA margin to 19.3%. Our
SGA estimate is 19.5%, down 100bp QoQ.
We expect PAT of USD365m, up 0.4% QoQ, and net margin of
12.8%.
The stock trades at 23.3x CY15E and 19.6x CY16E EPS. Not Rated.

We expect USD revenue growth of 1.1% QoQ to USD1.51b. As


notified in its pre-quarterly announcement, cross currency
movements are expected to impact growth by ~280bp. On a
constant currency basis, we expect growth to be at 3.9% QoQ.
We expect IMS to grow at 2.7% to USD527m, while software
services growth is expected to be flattish at 0.2% QoQ to USD907m.
In INR terms, our revenue estimate is INR93.8b, up 1% QoQ.
Realized currency rate is assumed at INR62.3/USD.
EBITDA margin is likely to decline 100bp QoQ to 24%, largely driven
by staggered wage hike impact of 40bp and 80bp of headwinds
from cross currency movements.

We expect USD revenue to grow 5% QoQ in constant currency.


Cross currency movements are expected to impact growth by
130bp due to which reported USD revenue growth will be 3.7%.
In INR terms, we expect revenue to grow 3.8% QoQ to INR7.39b.
We model EBITDA margin decline of 90bp QoQ to 19.4%. Our
estimate of slight contraction is on the back of multiple onsite
centric large deal wins, which should drive growth. The company
has also stated that it would keep utilization in the current band.
Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR989m, up 5.3% QoQ, and the
implied PAT margin estimate is 13.4%, up 20bp QoQ.
As of CY14, HEXW has not won any large deals but continues to
pursue several multi-year annuity revenue deals, which are
expected to close in CY15.
The stock trades at 20.7x CY15E and 16.9x CY16E earnings. Sell.

In 3QFY15, INFO retained its guidance of 7-9% YoY growth in FY15


at currency rates prevailing as on September 30, 2014. This implied
that the guidance does not factor the significant depreciation of
global currencies v/s the US dollar.
Factoring the same, the restated guidance on prevailing currency
rates is growth of 5.4-7.4%. Our current estimate is 6.4% growth, at
the midpoint of this guidance (USD8.8b).
For 3QFY15, we expect INFO to grow its revenue by 0.7% QoQ to
USD2.23b. In CC terms, we expect a revenue growth of 2.7%, and
cross currency to have a negative impact of 200bp QoQ.
We expect the EBIT margin to decline 70bp QoQ to 26% due to
headwinds faced from cross currency movements.
Our other income estimate for the quarter is INR6.9b, while the PAT
estimate is INR31.2b, down 3.9% QoQ.
The stock trades at 19.4x FY16E and 16.5x FY17E earnings. Buy.

Cross currency movements during the quarter will impact USD


revenue growth by 200bp. Normally, due to higher proportion of
revenues coming from US geography, cross currency movement
impact for KPIT has been half of the industry.
However, growth in 4Q would be dominated by regions outside US
due to which reported revenue growth will be flat at USD126m.
KPIT would miss its annual guidance of at least USD498m revenues
due to deferral of ramp up in one JD Edwards project and slippage
in milestone of one SAP project to next quarter.
EBITDA margin is expected to decline 90bp QoQ to 13% due to
lower revenue growth.
Our PAT estimate is INR769m, up 17.8% QoQ, due to normalized tax
rate of 5% v/s 22.3% in 3QFY15 due to tax credit from merger of an
acquisition and consequent write-off of Goodwill.
KPIT trades at 12.7x FY15E and 9.9x FY16E earnings. Neutral.

We model 4QFY15 revenue at USD148m, up 0.2% QoQ, which


includes 150bp of negative cross currency impact.
On constant currency basis, we expect a low 1.7% QoQ growth
during the quarter due to delay in the starting of two client projects
in CPG vertical.
In INR terms, our revenue estimate stands at INR9.2b, up 1% QoQ,
aided by INR depreciation of 0.8% to INR62.2/USD.
Our estimate for EBITDA margin is 20.5%, flat QoQ. We estimate
gross margin at 42%, down 30bp QoQ, and SGA at 21.5%, down
30bp QoQ.
Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR1.43b, which implies a PAT
margin of 15.6% and PAT growth of 1.7% QoQ. We model INR80m
of forex gains and INR151m of other income.
MTCL signed deals worth TCV of USD480m in 9MY15, and is
expected to continue its momentum on that front.
The stock trades at 18.4x FY16E and 15.3x FY17E earnings. Neutral.

Key issues to watch for


Comments on nature of delay in project ramp ups in CPG.
Margin trajectory, going forward.
Deal wins during the quarter.

For MPHL, the HP channel is likely to continue its rate of decline in


4QFY15, in line with the companys initial forecast of 20% volume
decline in FY15. Direct Channel (excluding Digital Risk) is expected
to grow at a healthy rate of 2.5-3% during the quarter.
Revenue from Digital Risk is expected to be flattish from the low of
last quarter, before rebounding in 1QFY16.
Overall, we model a revenue decline of 0.8% QoQ to USD225m. We
estimate INR revenue at INR13.8b, at an exchange rate of
INR62.2/USD.
EBITDA margin is estimated to decline 20bp QoQ to 12.8%, as the
weakness in Digital Risk continues to be a pressure on margins,
which are expected to be at the lower end of 13-15% guided band.
We expect PAT to be INR1.45b (-12% QoQ); our PAT margin
estimate is 10.5% (down 120bp QoQ). Our other income estimate is
INR291m v/s INR497m in 3QFY15.
The stock trades at 10.3x FY16E and 9.5x FY17E EPS. Neutral.

Key issues to watch for

We expect PSYS to miss its annual revenue growth guidance of 15%


for which it had an ask rate of 9% QoQ due to client specific issues.
We estimate 4QFY15 revenue to grow 2.7% QoQ to USD82m. We
expect Services to grow 1.5% QoQ to USD65.4m and IP-led revenue
to grow 7.9% QoQ to USD16.3m. In INR terms, we expect revenue
to grow 2.7% QoQ to INR5.08b.
We expect EBITDA margin to be flat at 20.1%, as PSYS continues to
make investments for its EDT strategy. We expect SGA at 19.2%, 30bp QoQ, and gross margin at 39.9%, -30bp QoQ.
Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR667m, down 10.4% QoQ.
Our estimate for other income is INR134m, compared to INR245m
in 3QFY15, including a forex gain of INR4m during the quarter,
compared to forex gains of INR130m in 3QFY15.
The stock trades at 19.1x FY15E and 15.1x FY16E earnings. Neutral.

In terms of 4QFY15 performance, TCS expects revenue in constant


currency to be in line with 4QFY14 (1.9% QoQ CC growth)
performance.
TCS expects the cross currency movements to have an adverse
impact of ~230bp. We expect 2.7% QoQ growth in constant
currency, and estimate reported revenue at USD3.95b, +0.4% QoQ.
Gross margin is estimated to be flat at 46.1% and our SGA estimate
is 17.3%, resulting in flat margins during the quarter. Adverse
movements in cross currencies have been accompanied by marginal
appreciation of the INR (30bp) during the quarter. Hence, there is a
negative impact of 40bp on margins during the quarter. We expect
that to be offset by internal efficiencies.
Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR54.8b, up 0.7% QoQ, on the
back of lower forex gains (INR2b v/s INR2.93b in 3Q).
The stock trades at 20.1x FY16E and 16.8x FY17E earnings. Neutral.

For 4QFY15, we expect TECHM to grow it total revenues by 7.4%


QoQ to USD993m in reported currency. This includes LCC revenue
contribution of ~USD85m and adverse cross currency movement
impact of 250bp on revenues.
Organically, in CC terms, we expect TECHM to grow 0.5% QoQ, as
the Telecom vertical is expected to see a decline QoQ due to client
specific issues.
EBITDA margin is likely to decline 240bp to 17.8% on multiple
headwinds: [1] integration of LCC (85bp impact), [2] wage hikes
(150-200bp impact) and [3] cross currency movements.
Our estimate of other income is INR183m (v/s INR190m in 3Q),
which includes forex loss of INR342m (v/s a loss of INR356m in 3Q).
Our PAT estimate is INR6.94b, which implies a decline of 10.7%
QoQ, primarily due to decline in operating margins.
TECHM trades at 16.6x FY16E and 13.5x FY17E EPS. Buy.
