3.0 Deal Background

History: The Satyam Computer Services scandal was a corporate scandal that occurred in India in

2009 where Chairman Ramalinga Raju confessed that the company's accounts had been doctored.

He acknowledged that company overstated its profits and revenues and operating margin. This

causes the free fall of stock to 11.50 rupees on 10 January 2009, their lowest level since March 1998,

compared to a high of 544 rupees in 2008. Fraud leads to several arrests. The Indian Government

has stated that it may provide temporary direct or indirect liquidity support to the company. On 11

January 2009, the government nominated noted banker Deepak Parekh, former NASSCOM chief

Kiran Karnik and former SEBI member C Achuthan to Satyam's board. On 13 April 2009, via a formal

public auction process, a 46% stake in Satyam was purchased by Mahindra & Mahindra owned

company Tech Mahindra, as part of its diversification strategy. Effective July 2009, Satyam

rebranded its services under the new Mahindra management as "Mahindra Satyam" with a new

corporate website www.MahindraSatyam.com.

Before current merger tech Mahindra is already having a 43% stake. Tech Mahindra pursue this deal

through a swap ratio of two shares of its own to every 17 share held by Satyam shareholders.

6.0 Valuation of the deal

Following Assumptions are taken while doing the valuation:

1. Revenue growth is taken in line with NASSCOM’s predict of 11-14% (SPA-The Financial

Advisors’ Report)

2. Risk free rate is taken as 8.81% 91 day T- bill rate (source:

3. Risk premium taken as 10.76% (source: Prof. P. Mohanty’s Website)

4. Terminal Growth rate is taken as 6%.

5. Reduction in operating cost due to synergy is taken as 5%.

6.1 Tech Mahindra valuation:

We have used Discounted cash flow of valuation approach in valuing Tech mahindra. The CAGR from

2008-11 in sales is 11%. We have taken 8% growth rate in 2012 and 2013 and 9% in 2014-16. This

was due to bad macro scenario, TechM’s over-exposer to telecom and overreliance to British

telecom, which is retendering projects. The operating margin’s are taken as 20% of sales throughout

the forecast period. CAPEX is taken as 1% of sales. TechM Debt/ equity ratio is 53.88 % making it

high debt company.

7.0 Post-Merger Challenges

The merged entity has become the fifth largest Indian IT Services Company. And thus the strength of

a bigger balance sheet, increased level of expertise and knowledge base and enlarged client base will

enhance its ability to bid for the larger projects but it would be possible only after it can overcome

the following challenges.

Seamless integration of the entities: The biggest challenge for the merged entity would be the

seamless integration of both the entities avoiding any major conflict and chaos and achieving the

potential synergies. As per our group’s estimation, a significant source of synergy would be the

reduction in cost (around 5%). The merger will add some economic value only if co-ordination and

synchronization is there to achieve the benefits of synergies and potential opportunities.

Management challenges

Though both the entities before merger have similar culture still there are many other challenges

that management has to overcome. One such challenge is regarding collection days, while the

Mahindra Satyam took 87 days to collect outstanding sales, Tech Mahindra required 111 days (based

on data as on September 30, 2011). This is on the higher side compared with the DSO of 60-80 for

top IT players. After the merger, the company will have an exposure to diverse verticals and solution

platforms. Management has to make sure that the company can overcome this challenge and

convert it into an opportunity and a competitive advantage.

Pending legal cases

There are several pending legal cases related to the fraud at Satyam which can become a major

challenge for the merged entity. The estimated cost of these litigations can be more than Rs 3,000

Crores, which can severely impact the cash flows of the company.

8.0 Final comments & Recommendation

The ‘valuation’ done by our group shows that both the entities will benefit from the merger. All the

stakeholders (except few higher level managers who might risk their position in the restructuring

process) shall benefit from the merger (provided the implementation is successful as per the plans).

There has been a run-up in the stock price after the announcement of merger which indicates

positive market sentiments/expectations. This is likely to offer more stability to Tech Mahindra,

which traditionally has been a single vertical player catering to telecom operators across the globe.

Also, it will gain from benefits of scale. The combined entity will figure among the country's top IT

exporters, which will improve overall visibility of its offerings and may impart a positive bias to its

valuations in future.

The merger will also increase the number of shares available (free float) for trade in public

shareholders of the merged entity compared to the current free float of Tech Mahindra, thereby

adding to the scrip's liquidity. We believe that focus would now shift to the execution and realization

of synergy.

Thus, our analysis clearly appreciates the decision of many shareholders to buy the shares of the

company on the announcement of the deal. Few days after the announcement, market has digested

the news which is clearly visible in the significant increase in the share prices of the company (up

from 683.9 on 20 Feb to 724.8 on 22 Mar). Based on our recommendation, the company is poised

for long term growth and holds promises for its shareholders in future.
