Emkay Global Financial's research report on Tata Communications
TCom declined by 11%, following Q2FY24 results. Although Q2 results were broadly in-line, the steep correction following the result is largely due to moderation in underlying growth in Q2 with digital portfolio growth at 16.4% YoY (-1.2% QoQ) vs. 28% YoY (+8.6% QoQ) in Q1. Moreover, management’s short-term margin guidance below 20% was also taken negatively. However, structurally, we remain positive on TCom. We like TCom’s focus on digital services. Digital services (ex-Collaboration) has been delivering good performance. Kaleyra’s acquisition will aid growth in collaboration. Focus on gaining scale and synergies can help improve margin faster.
Outlook
We see earnings improving at a fast pace from FY25 post peak investments in FY24, although the stock may consolidate in the interim. We retain our HOLD rating.
