21 April 2020 Results Review 4QFY20 Infosys HSIE Research is also available on Bloomberg ERH HDF <GO> & Thomson Reuters Weathering the storm Infosys (INFY) delivered rev/margin below estimates in 4Q. While near-term performance will be marred by demand dent across verticals, subsequent recovery will be supported by (1) Strong growth in digital (42% of rev), (2) Resilience in large deal wins (bookings tracking well), (3) Market-share gains from vendor consolidation, and (4) Operational prudence & favourable onsite supply metrics. Maintain BUY with TP of Rs 680, at 16x FY22E EPS. INFY’s revenue stood at USD 3,197mn, -0.8/+6.4% QoQ/YoY CC and FY20 revenue growth stood at 9.8% CC (vs. 9% in FY19), tad short of its 10-10.5% CC FY20 guidance. FY21 guidance was not provided on economic uncertainty and COVID-19 impact in 4Q rev stood at USD 32mn or -1% QoQ (~USD 20mn supply-related impact and ~USD 10mn demand impact). Retail (NorthAm), Communications (Europe) and Hi-tech vertical outperformed sequential performance, offset by QoQ decline in Mfg, Life-science, BFSI, E&U & Communication (NorthAm). TCV of large deal bookings in 4Q was USD 1,646mn across 12 deals and 56% of the TCV were net-new wins. INFY’s large deal TCV in FY20 (USD 9bn) has grown at 44% as compared to 23% growth for TCS’ total deal TCV. INFY’s net-new wins was the highest in 3-qtr with deal closures even towards the turbulent quarter-end. Operating performance was lower 75bps QoQ at 21.2% EBIT% on (1) COVID-19 related supply-demand impact (-90bps QoQ), (2) Visa expense (- 40bps), and (3) Higher G&A (CSR); offset by INR depreciation benefit (+50bps) and Travel cost & other efficiencies (+50bps). INFY has increased its cost optimisation focus further using a combination of delayed on-boarding, deferral in hikes, continuity in performance-linked involuntary attrition and other recurring cost optimisation modes (automation, offshoring, pyramid rationalisation). Valuation and view. Despite the near-term grind on account of COVID-19 disruption, subsequent improvement in growth trajectory is premised on (1) Deal trends (stronger growth in TCV in FY20 as compared to TCS at 44%), (2) Vendor consolidation gains vs. weaker incumbents (including large global), supported by delivery efficiency and balance sheet strength (USD 3.6bn net cash), and (3) Strong digital offerings (32% YoY growth in Digital even in a soft 4Q). Steady onsite utilisation and availability of full stack onsite delivery centres (invested over last 3 years) will support increase in operational rigour, mitigating the impact from operating de-leverage in FY21. We have factored USD rev/APAT decline at 2/5% for FY21. FCF & payout yield at 5/4% support valuations (15.4x FY22E vs. ~17x historical avg), even as FCF generation improved in FY20 (FCF/APAT at 86% vs. 76% in FY19).

Weathering the storm Infosys (INFY) delivered rev/margin below estimates in 4Q. While near-term

performance will be marred by demand dent across verticals, subsequent

recovery will be supported by (1) Strong growth in digital (42% of rev), (2)

Resilience in large deal wins (bookings tracking well), (3) Market-share gains

from vendor consolidation, and (4) Operational prudence & favourable onsite

supply metrics. Maintain BUY with TP of Rs 680, at 16x FY22E EPS.

INFY’s revenue stood at USD 3,197mn, -0.8/+6.4% QoQ/YoY CC and FY20

revenue growth stood at 9.8% CC (vs. 9% in FY19), tad short of its 10-10.5%

CC FY20 guidance. FY21 guidance was not provided on economic

uncertainty and COVID-19 impact in 4Q rev stood at USD 32mn or -1% QoQ

(~USD 20mn supply-related impact and ~USD 10mn demand impact). Retail

(NorthAm), Communications (Europe) and Hi-tech vertical outperformed

sequential performance, offset by QoQ decline in Mfg, Life-science, BFSI,

E&U & Communication (NorthAm).

TCV of large deal bookings in 4Q was USD 1,646mn across 12 deals and 56%

of the TCV were net-new wins. INFY’s large deal TCV in FY20 (USD 9bn)

has grown at 44% as compared to 23% growth for TCS’ total deal TCV.

INFY’s net-new wins was the highest in 3-qtr with deal closures even

towards the turbulent quarter-end.

Operating performance was lower 75bps QoQ at 21.2% EBIT% on (1)

COVID-19 related supply-demand impact (-90bps QoQ), (2) Visa expense (-

40bps), and (3) Higher G&A (CSR); offset by INR depreciation benefit

(+50bps) and Travel cost & other efficiencies (+50bps). INFY has increased its

cost optimisation focus further using a combination of delayed on-boarding,

deferral in hikes, continuity in performance-linked involuntary attrition and

other recurring cost optimisation modes (automation, offshoring, pyramid

rationalisation).

Valuation and view. Despite the near-term grind on account of COVID-19

disruption, subsequent improvement in growth trajectory is premised on (1)

Deal trends (stronger growth in TCV in FY20 as compared to TCS at 44%),

(2) Vendor consolidation gains vs. weaker incumbents (including large

global), supported by delivery efficiency and balance sheet strength (USD

3.6bn net cash), and (3) Strong digital offerings (32% YoY growth in Digital

even in a soft 4Q). Steady onsite utilisation and availability of full stack

onsite delivery centres (invested over last 3 years) will support increase in

operational rigour, mitigating the impact from operating de-leverage in

FY21. We have factored USD rev/APAT decline at 2/5% for FY21. FCF &

payout yield at 5/4% support valuations (15.4x FY22E vs. ~17x historical

avg), even as FCF generation improved in FY20 (FCF/APAT at 86% vs. 76%

in FY19).
