Satish's SME Corner : Notes and Con-call Updates

Agree on the valuation part. I did a similar projection with a conservative 15% CAGR and keeping gold revenue stagnant, with RV it still seems attractive-

A cargo company from the same promoters said this in their concall-

“fuel cost is a direct pass-on to the end customer” via “fuel surcharge,” and “100% of the increased fuel cost is passed on.”.

Is there any similar provision for Flysbs as well. If anyone has any idea the impact of fuel volatility on H1 results kindly share your thoughts.

Also, i would kindly request @Satishwe to make new thread for Flysbs.

If anyone is willing to put in the necessary effort to create a fresh topic on Flysbs, we can create a dedicated discussion thread for it as well.

Any idea on fleet expansion plans?? on first glance it seems that they failed to achieve their target this year.. Fleet expansion is key to growth here.

And biggest puzzle to me is is the 125 cr increase in Long term Loans & Advances given to some unknown entity

too many litigations against promoters

Business:
WM operates a B2B, asset-light, services-led business model as an AWS Premier Consulting
Partner. Revenue is generated through:

  1. Cloud Migration & Managed Services ( 50-55% of revenue): End-to-end migration of enterprise workloads to AWS cloud, followed by ongoing managed services contracts. These are typically multi-year contracts providing recurring revenue.
  2. DevOps &Automation (15-20%): Implementation of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation using AWS
    CloudFormation, Kubernetes orchestration.
  3. Cybersecurity & Analytics (10-15%): Security solutions for cloud and hybrid environments. Data analytics and business intelligence services.
  4. Application Development & Modernization (10-12%): Custom application development, legacy application modernization for cloud-native architecture.
  5. SAP Infrastructure Support ( 3-5%): SAP workload migration and management on AWS.
  6. Emerging Technologies (3-5%): IoT, Blockchain, AI/ML, VR/AR services - nascent but growing segment.
  • FY 27 entry MRR at 13.25 cr/month implied annual revenue would be 160 cr. Guidance of 210 cr topline and 25 cr pat. H1 outlook: INR 92 crores , h2 120 cr.
  • In Nov 2025 , WM achieved the AWS MSP (Managed Service Provider) status, this is a pivotal moment as AWS Premier Partner + Audited MSP puts them on Top 1% Global Status.

Recent updates:

Workmates Core2Cloud’s board has approved the incorporation of wholly owned subsidiary in Delaware, USA, its first overseas expansion to strengthen its presence in the US market. The new entity will focus on cloud migration, cloud operations, cybersecurity, managed services, data, and AI solutions. This is a new entity with no existing revenue, the move is a strategic long-term growth initiative with low immediate financial impact.

the earlier guidance of 210 cr doesn’t include any revenues form US entity, so H2 if they do some revenues form USA it would be on top of 210 cr with higher gross margins but lower net margins due to initial setup/marketing/sales costs.

TAILWINDS:

  • Cloud infrastructure spending in India growing 22-27% CAGR through 2030.
  • AWS investing $48.3 billion in India data centers (Maharashtra) by 2030.
  • GenAI adoption requiring cloud-native infrastructure.
  • Digital India, Startup India government initiatives.
  • RBI pilot for cloud data storage solutions for financial institutions.
  • Data localization requirements driving domestic cloud demand.
  • 10-Year Incremental Revenue Impact from India’s Data-Centre Export Tax Holiday
    (2026–2035)
  • Spike in hardware prices push more companies towards cloud

Risks:

  • Kfin has inhouse team, possible they might reduce sales to WM
  • Aws can change its policies/commissions which could impact margins.

DSCL: I hold WM shares at avg 320/- will plan to add more on dips.

Good results from Reva

Any fresh update on DSM Foods…I think they have declared good Q1 results

In one of the concall, Emmforce promotors told that 80% of their revenue is from USA, and trump has gone bonkers and throwing tariffs like anything. The irony is that european nations themselves are importing gas from Russia and they are exempted from this new bill.
This was always the risk with Emmforce, they neither diversified among customers nor geographies. Although from recent price action, which happened after GoIndia conference/Plant visit, it looks like someone accumulated good chunk of shares.

India, China fear 100% US tariffs after Senate clears bill to sanction Russia

Emmforce will not get such high margins in Indian sale. If you remove related party sale, their margins from Auto are over 30% so their focus is on US, but they are trying for Europe. Next month visit is planned, some exhibition. Yes risk is there but they dont have option. A new indian customer will ask them to book capacity at much much lower margin which emmforce doesnot want. so they are exploring US and Europe

They soon in a year will go big on hydraulic pump. It has huge potential as well. Also Agri will pick up. Its a long term company not a trade stock which usually SME segment has become.

reg DSM foods, I am not sure if there are any cg issues, market doesnt like this stock and derated to 10 pe due to constant acquisitions for growth. Need to watch out for few more Quarters and then take a call.

For DSM Foods, low promoter holding (28%) and 10% reduction in shareholding by DII and FIIs between Oct 25 and Mar 26 is a matter of concern.
