Dear fellow shareholders,
Some time back we were travelling through the rural heart land of a
state, during which we stopped to stretch our legs and have tea at a
small stall. While waiting I happened to watch a person seated under a
tree interacting with a couple of villagers. A village lady walked to
this person, pulled out a card, did her finger scan and took some money
from that person. It was a great moment for me, because the lady was
one of the beneficiaries of the government scheme being implemented by
us, which also has financial inclusion services attached to it. To my
mind this is what your company stands for- supporting transformation
and enabling inclusion. Innovative insights driven services that make
our customers lives easy and empowered, drive us forward. And our
customer spectrum spans across that lady in the village who earlier was
not even aware of basic banking facility and now who operates her own
bank account, to a CIO of a Fortune 100 company who trusts our team for
business continuity and better return on IT.
Glodyne is creating new markets:
We have seen our company scale tremendously, by moving up the value
chain of technology services as well as geographical expansion. But
what excite me are the possibilities that appear before us - which are
to envision, and which inspire our best efforts to build
transformational services to cater to these market making
opportunities. I am excited and hopeful that we will continue to make
progress in our niche area of technology managed services.
Glodyne has built strong skills and capabilities to provide path
breaking array of technology infrastructure management services (IMS)
on a managed services model across banking, education and government
verticals in India. The successful rollouts of ambitious and
transformational projects in India clearly demonstrate Glodyne'' domain
expertise in implementing and managing large technology led projects in
the country. These are market creating opportunities and we are
determined to emerge as a very strong contender in these sectors.
Highlights forthe year:
For the financial year 2010-11, Glodyne has registered revenues of Rs.
1,750 cr on a consolidated basis, 133% growth over FY 2009 - 10. The
EBITDA grew by 85% over FY 2009-10 to Rs. 316.25 cr. Net profit for FY
2010-11, was Rs. 174.12 cr, up 74% over FY 2009-10. The basic EPS for
the year is at Rs.40.32 against Rs. 24.56 which is adjusted forthe share
split from face value Rs. 10 to face value Rs. 6.
Our company''s geographical mix for the year was 58:42 (India: North
America), the share of North America increasing because of the
DecisionOne Corporation''s acquisition.
During the year, Glodyne was proud to associate with the UIDAI in the
launch of the first set of ''Aadhar'' numbers in the Country from the
Tembhli village of Nandurbar district, Maharashtra. UID is a
transformational and a historic project being implemented in the
country and Glodyne is committed to provide all possible support to the
program, having earlier done the proof of concept for UIDAI in the
state of Bihar.
During the year, Glodyne initiated major IMS program pilots and
conducted many proof of concepts. The company partnered with few
governments on a Public-Private Partnership model to implement public
distribution system, MNREGS and labour automation programs.
The company is in the process of implementing financial inclusion
services for its various bank partners for reaching out to more than 45
million citizens. We are on our way to become a leader in this space
which will bring banking services to the millions of unbanked
population of India. We are implementing the largest urban as well as
rural financial inclusion programs across different states. Our unique
social program supported financial inclusion services ensure that the
accounts managed under the program remain active accounts.
Geographical Expansion:
In the last five years, Glodyne has acquired five companies. All the
acquisitions have helped us to open up new opportunities in important
markets or sectors. In the year, Glodyne completed the acquisition of
DecisionOne Corporation, one of the largest independent technology
infrastructure management services company in North America,
headquartered at Philadelphia. It is a 0 mln revenue company which
we acquired for an enterprise value of 4mn. This acquisition has
enabled in-roads for Glodyne into the world''s largest IMS market, added
marquee clients in North America with strong long term relationships
and provides us with an opportunity to expand our services base.
Glodyne DecisionOne''s management is upbeat on expanding business and
improving efficiencies through re-aligning the cost and revenue matrix
by adding off shoring benefits. The management is focussed on to
leverage Glodyne DecisionOne''s high end service capabilities to address
large IMS deals in North America which is the largest IMS market in the
world.
The way forward:
We have been implementing large technology led social initiatives in
the areas of MNREGS, financial inclusion, public distribution system
and empowerment of the unorganized workforce. We are also expanding our
education managed services across enterprise (universities) and retail
(colleges and schools) segments. Moving forward with the above
initiatives we will continue our journey forward in which our levers of
growth have put us in a strong position and we are determined to expand
on the strong niche that the company has built in the geographies we
serve. Over the last few quarters our team has built a strong execution
pipeline in the financial inclusion, e-governance and education sectors
in India, and our focus is to ensure operational efficiencies and
expansion in these projects. In our North America business we are
working to re-align our cost and transform our services mix in the
forth coming quarters.
There are very few things as powerful as human passion. During the
year, we doubled the size of our senior leadership team and are
delighted that a new set of next in command leaders have emerged from
within. We are counting on Glodyne to grow more leadership that will
take us to the next level. I am confident with the aligned leadership
and a more responsive internal structure Glodyne would continue to
scale new heights.
Continuous value creation is our focus and Glodyne is determined to
deliver the maximum value to our clients, employees, and all the
stakeholders. The trust that you - our investors - place in us every
day is something we take very seriously. Thank you all for joining us
on this amazing journey and I expect your support in the future.
