Excerpts from AR 2012-13
Our acquisition of Cignex, two years ago was in response to the Open Source opportunity. Cignex is in âOpen Sourceâ. Cignex revenue grew from Rs 99 crores to Rs 193 crores in the 2 years after our acquisition Your company is relying upon both organic and inorganic growth. We are constantly looking for M&A targets in our business, with financial prudence. I am confident that our growth will exceed 30% in FY 2013-14 thanks to organic growth, M&As and the weakening rupee.
Positives:
Promoted by founder Director of TCS â Lalit Kanodia
Surviving from 25 years in the industry
Company is in reviving phase after a few years of challenges.
High shareholding by promoters â 72.75%
Clean balance sheet â 100cr of cash and cash equivalents (excluding 40 Cr debt) on MCP of 320 cr.
Continuously paying dividend with 2% yield and good payout ratio of 25%.
Negatives:
Last 5 years has been challenging and didnât show the growth
61% of revenue from USA.
Currency fluctuations
Talent retention
Growth is majorly from CIGNEX
Investment theme:
Of late there is a re-rating in IT/ITES sector due to rupee depreciation, increasing opportunities due to US recovery and positive outlook for next 2-3 years. This has been extended to even small cap companies like R-systems, etc. Datamatics is one company which is in the same league and trading at forward PE of 6. This seems to be a good Opportunistic bet at the CMP of around 50. Any improvement in fundamentals and consistent growth may re-rate the company to 7-8 PE help to provide good return in the medium term of 1-2 years.
