Axis Direct's research report on Hexaware
Hexaware’s Q2CY16revenue was largely inline but margin disappointed. EBIT margin (14%) disappointment was due to service mix change, branding expenses (one-off), lower utilization and visa costs.
Management expects H2 to be better with contribution from both revenue and margin improvement. Revenue growth will be led by core verticals of BFS (40% of rev.), Healthcare & Insurance (17%) and Manufacturing on strong pipeline. Management shared multiple margin levers exist– utilization (200-300 bps potential) and absence of visa /branding costs. However, given macro challenges are impacting decision making, growth rates will be lower for the IT sector. Hence, we build in 10% CAGR in revenue over CY15-17E for Hexaware.
