Yet another stellar performance in an otherwise inflationary environment. It is amazing that the management just walks the talk on QoQ basis.

Discl: Invested at very low levels.

Quick notes from Q4 Fy22 ConCall

Key highlights of the last quarter

  • Revenue: INR 95 Crs; 28% QoQ and 86% YoY
  • EBITDA margin at 31%; up 27 bps QoQ and up 128 bps YoY
  • Client wins: 8 new clients were added in the last quarter, including one fortune 500 client

Revenue and margin performance for last year FY22

  • Revenue: INR 289 cr; Growth of 47% YoY as compared to INR 196 Cr in FY2021
  • Revenue in USD terms grew by 46% over the same period
  • PAT: INR 57 Cr; Growth of 54% YoY as compared to INR 37 Cr in FY2021
  • ROE for FY 22 – 24% YoY
  • EPS growth of 54% YoY and 8.24 in INR terms as compared to INR 15.34 in FY2021

Employees

  • Utilization excluding trainees at 82%
  • Utilization including trainees at 76%
  • LTM Attrition at 0-2 years tenure is 14%, whereas at 5+ years is 4%
  • Revenue per employee at $25,400k for the year.

On future guidance – will try to grow around 25% every year, and will try to double every 3 years, will grow 20-25% y-o-y organically and remaining with acquisitions.

Attrition – Main concern is the employees who joined in last 2 years where attrition is around 14%, employees who are with InfoBeans from more than 2 years, attrition is 4%.

InfoBeans is constantly trying to built more encouraging and employee friendly environment to reduce attrition rate, top performing employees are rewarded in innovative ways to create win-win situation for both employee and the company.

Current demand environment – Demand is looking strong, InfoBeans is relatively small and opportunity size is big, currently doing digitalisation, cloud automation and product engineering and is looking to foray into other domains by doing acquisition.

On Acquisition – from 2017 acquired 2 companies, Philosophie was very successful acquisition and new acquisition Eturnus solutions is also doing well.

On margins – Currently margins are high, in future will try to sustain net profit margins above 15%.

Tax will be low for nest 5 years.

2 standouts for me other than the numbers and guidance:

  • Callout on size of acquisition considering risk, we have seen what happened to Persistent
  • Clear callout on current margin being unsustainable, exudes trust and confidence

The question to which i am still seeking answer is why institutions are not interested in this even after such prolonged good performance.

I have a question. How is Infobeans, a ~1700 Cr. company, able to tap into Fortune 500 Clients? Do their partnerships with Salesforce and ServiceNow help them get these clients or are these their own sales effort?

Infobeans is an expert in Salesforce and ServiceNow implementations. The fact that they have onboarded multiple high profile clients has nothing to do with thie market cap. It’s simply the quality of products that Infobeans has consistently been able to deliver in turn enhancing confidence in corporates to partner with them. Hope this helps!

How would one look at the money received by the promoters?
First Method
For Siddarth Sethi and Avinash Sethi for FY22:
Remunerations = Rs. 47,78,400 + Rs. 49,48,296 = Rs. 97,26,696
Performance Incentives = Rs. 1,25,00,000 * 2 = Rs. 2,50,00,000.
Dividends
Avinash Sethi Dividend = Rs. 178 lacs
Siddarth Sethi Dividend = Rs. 180 lacs
Total money get by the above two persons = Rs. 705 lacs.
PAT for FY 22 = Rs. 5410 lacs
Total Money/PAT = 13%.
Second Method
For Siddarth, Avinash, and Mitesh for FY22:
Director’s Remuneration = Rs. 348 lacs
Dividend = Rs. 508 lacs
Total Money/PAT = 15.8%
Shares sold by the three promoters = (51,000) shares * Rs. 200 ( Minimum approx Price for Fy 22) = Rs. 102 lacs.
Total Money/PAT = 17 %
But overall shares 17,000 shares were bought.



It is interesting to look at like aggressive mutual funds houses that try to beat the market while taking high management fees.


It will be interesting to see if the company is able to maintain growth of 24% CAGR.


So far considering Net worth it is on the track.

Almost 75% of the company is owned by them.

So out of 5410 lakhs PAT , 75% is 4057. Out of which 358 is dividend, is only 8.8%. Looks fine to me.
They are taking a salary of around 4 lakhs per month each . Rest should be incentive.

Though the median remuneration increased, the salary of the directors has not increased.
