The knee-jerk reaction to Q4FY12 results pushed the Infosys stock to trough valuations. We believe that the current market price is factoring in most of the negative sentiments; however, it is not accounting for positives. Our “BUY” rating is based on five pillars.
Weak Q4FY12 ‐ Not entirely company specific problem: Infosys’ management commentary for Q4FY12 was not entirely a company-specific problem. The cautious behaviour of client has pushed project ramp-ups across the vendors. Results from IBM and HCL Tech resonate well with Infosys’ commentary.
Strong client addition – Not captured in performance: Infosys added highest number of clients among the peers over the last four quarters. However, the quarterly performance didn’t add-up to the same. We expect ramp-up of projects from the client win to result in a positive surprise. Moreover, anaemic guidance for seasonally strong Q1 has further raised doubts about back-ended growth. But, 1-2pp beat due to project ramp-up could give further upside risk to consensus expectation.
Ramp ‐ down likely to be bottoming out in H1FY13: Top client’s ramp-down which troubled Infosys through H2FY11 are bottoming out. The consistent underperformance from top clients is reaching a nadir. We expect ramp-down to spill over in H1FY13. We are factoring 2% negative impact due to the same.
Consensus expectation not factoring margin levers: Post Q4FY12 results consensus expectation came spiralling down by 3-4%. Moreover, consensus is factoring in margin dip despite multiple margin levers. We expect consensus upgrade post Q1FY13 results.
Inexpensive valuation, retain “BUY”: Infosys is currently trading at 12.1x FY14 earnings estimates, one of the lowest valuations that the company has witnessed since Lehman crisis. We are still not able to envisage a scenario similar to that. Moreover, the delay in project ramp-up will only create projects along the sidelines, which would start once there is more clarity on macro-uncertainty. We reiterate “BUY” with a target price of Rs2,940.

Q4FY12 weakness – not entirely a company‐specific problem
The recent results from technology majors like IBM, Intel, SAP and EMC clearly indicated that the problem cited by Infosys’ management is not specific to the company. The commentary from the management of global technology majors are at unison to Infosys’ citation. The reasons cited by tech‐giants were different from each other, but the underlying weak demand was evident in the result.
IBM: The growth momentum of Global Services and Software sales have slowed sharply in Q1CY12 (JFM-12) results for IBM. Moreover, North America and Europe (-2.6% YoY, 1% @cc) also moderated in terms of momentum. According to IBM’s management “…Europe on balance looks stable, with growth from UK, Germany, Spain, and weakness in France and Italy…“. IBM’s backlog declined 2% YoY (-1% YoY @cc) and ended the quarter at US$139bn. Outsourcing backlog was also down 4% YoY.

Intel: Intel reported Q1CY12 results better than expected, with revenue at US$12.91bn (Cons.: US$12.84bn, Guidance: US$12.3-13.3bn). Despite the reduced level of inventory as cited by the management, the guidance for the next quarter at US$13.1-14.1bn (Cons.:$13.5bn) was largely in-line with the consensus. According to Stacy Smith (CFO), “…guidance for Q2 just include end demand…it's anticipation of a good Q4, where you have lots of catalysts in the marketplace that we think are driving a reasonable amount of excitement for how sales could go at the end of this year…”
SAP: SAP reported Q1CY12 license/SSRS/total revenue at €637m/ €2.63bn/ €3.36bn against the consensus at €693m/ €2.66m/ €3.40bn with a growth of 4%/ 10%/ 10.5% YoY, respectively. The weaker-than-expected performance was attributed to issues in North America, and some European markets (incl. UK and France) are off to a weaker start.

Infosys
EMC: EMC reported results touch below analyst expectation. According Mr. Joe Tucci (CEO) “In Q1, we saw IT spending in our business unfold pretty much as we expected and predicted. Overall IT spending growth was fairly good in the Americas and APJ. In Europe, I believe that overall IT spending growth was at best flat. …looking at Q1 year over year IT spending growth from a vertical industry point of view, we saw some softness in the banking sector; average growth in retail, manufacturing, telecom and information technology verticals; good growth in insurance, government, healthcare, education and media.”
Microsoft: Microsoft managed to buck the trend by delivering better-than-expected numbers. The better-than-expected performance on Servers & Tools and Enterprise Sales of PC, gave a ray of hope that it’s not all dried out in terms of tech investment.
Expectation running low – scope of outperformance high
The consensus downgraded the expectation for FY13 and FY14, post result, by 3-5%. Currently, the consensus expectation has been moderated to 12% growth for EPS for FY13 despite 8-10% volume growth guidance.

Subdued wage hike can only aid to margin
The wage-hike for FY13 has been deferred. However, the company has handed over promotions to ~16k professionals (10% of total workforce) and wage hike related to that. We are not ruling out wage hike completely during the year. Nevertheless, the wage hike for the sector is expected to be in low-to-mid single digit (2-5%). We are factoring in impact of wage hike as 100bps in our model.

Attrition unlikely to shoot‐up like FY10
Deferred wage hike, sudden spike in volumes and weak bench-strength in FY10 resulted in sudden surge in attrition. However, benign growth, stronger trainees’ pipeline and stretch margin levers are unlikely to push for the musical chair game of talent. We see limited scope of higher attrition in FY13.

Infosys
Ramp‐down bottoming–out in Q1FY13
Infosys’ trouble with top 20 clients is very evident in their quarterly performance and had a bearing on their guidance misses over the last 5-6 quarters. Top clients for Infosys have consistently underperformed the overall revenue growth over last 8 quarters. Top clients, despite change from BT to BAML, have consistently underperformed overall growth. Moreover, few insurance clients are still in the process of ramping-down. However, we expect Q1FY13 to have a pinnacle of the ramp-down impact.

The company has witnessed ~$500m (~7% of revenue) ramp-down over the last six quarters from top 10 clients. Despite such a sharp ramp-down by some of the top clients, Infosys managed to grow their volumes by ~10.8% YoY for FY12. However, Tier-1 peers have delivered high-teen growth.

Infosys
Strong client addition still not captured in performance
We are cognizant of the fact that ramp-down from key Financial Services and Insurance clients have yielded negative surprise in the quarter. We are factoring 1‐2% negative impact because of spill‐over of those ramp‐downs in Q1FY13. However, a seasonally strong quarter would be accompanied by project ramp-ups offsetting much of those.
Q1 – Seasonally strong quarter has always sprung a positive surprise
The weakest performance by Infosys in Q1 was in FY09 & FY10, when the company managed to grow only 1.1% and 0.1% QoQ, respectively. We expect current guidance of 0-1% for Q1FY13 is factoring in ramp-down impact of ~2%. We expect narrow beat in Q1FY13, however, mid-single digit growth for Q2FY13.

Strong client addition still not captured in growth
Client addition and net new client addition has been really strong compared to its peers. We do understand that most of these clients are added towards the smaller buckets. The management cited two reasons for delayed ramp-up for the company
Macro uncertainty and weaker-than-expected performance of clients (revenue) are resulting in delay of these project ramp-up
Delay in regulatory deadline has pushed-out the urgency further in FY13 for some these clients to abide by the new framework
However, strong client win definitely does not put the strategy of the company at question. We believe the company’s ability to win new client still remains among the best in the industry.

How we differ from the consensus
We still believe that consensus is not factoring in the possibility of strong margin performance despite weaker volume performance. We are factoring in 10% volume growth, 4% impact due to currency, 5% increase in utilization, -0.5% impact due to S&M investment and -2% impacts because of realization

Infosys
Best cash conversion among peers
Infosys’ ability to generate cash remains best among the peers. The bigger question, however, remains about the cash usage. The company’s strategy of conservative stance in M&A can be analyzed in conjunction with the success of other M&A in the industry.
We remain less confident about the success of large M&A; however, ‘string‐of‐pearls’ strategy may work well for Infosys. The smaller acquisition like McCammish and Portland have added competencies but failed to make any material difference to EPS. We believe that Infosys needs to eye for more opportunities of similar size in order to boost their performance.

Infosys
Inexpensive valuation – Make compulsive case for a BUY
Infosys is currently trading at the cheapest valuation since Lehman crisis. Infosys is not an expensive technology stock on a relative basis. The shares are trading at a 13x FY14e earnings estimates, a 10-20% discount to Wipro and TCS. Given that we think it has 14% earnings CAGR and sustainable growth prospects, we do not believe this discount is warranted. Infosys now has traded at a discount to TCS for sustainable period, which is going to see margin pressure in the near term and discount with Wipro, whose recovery is already in the price.
