Acquires Sofgen holdings Limited (SOFGEN) Access to BFSI customer base key rationale; EPS-neutral

Acquires SOFGEN - Implementer of banking and wealth management software TECHM signed an agreement to acquire100% stake in Sofgen holdings Ltd, a niche consulting and services company specializing in Private Wealth, commercial and retail banking solutions. The consideration is USD30m, one-third of which is in the form of earn-outs to be paid after two years.

EVENT: Acquires Sofgen holdings Ltd to expand its Core Banking Expertise TECHM signed a definitive agreement to acquire100% stake in Sofgen holdings

Ltd, a niche consulting and services company specializing in Private Wealth, commercial and retail banking solutions

Financial closure is expected in 4QFY15 post the receipt of regulatory approvals. Sofgen will continue to operate as an independent entity after the acquisition CONSIDERATION: ~USD30m EV @ EV/EBITDA of 7x, 0.7x Sales TECHM will acquire 100% of Sofgen for a sub-USD30m total payout, 2/3rd of the

consideration will be paid upfront and 1/3rd is based on the earn outs over the next two years.

Earn outs will be computed on the base of revenue and EBITDA growth of the company.

Currently Sofgen is expected to do USD45m in revenues with high single digit EBITDA margins.

Sofgen has USD4-5m of debt on its balance sheet, included in the consideration. Rest of the consideration will go to the existing shareholders which is a mix of senior management and some private investors.

Given one-third of the consideration is in the form of earn-outs over next two years, Sofgen will continue to operate as an independent entity.

ABOUT SOFGEN: ~USD45m CY14E revenues, high single digit EBITDA margin The company has 450+ employees with 20+ Tier1 client relationships Sofgen revenues comprise of Temenos implementations (60%), Avaloq

implementations (30%) and a tax compliance reporting platform (10%). Temenos has been the largest selling core banking solution worldwide in the

retail and commercial banking space. Sofgen has been a Temenos partner for years.

Sofgen has the second largest pool of Avaloq consultants in the world, which is one of the leading wealth management platforms used by Tier-I wealth managers worldwide.

The tax compliance platform provided by Sofgen is used by a number of wealth managers in Europe to provide tax compliance reporting to individual account holders, primarily as a service which is a regulatory mandate in many parts of Europe.

Sofgen’s client base is spread across Europe, Asia and APAC; which includes number of leading commercial banks, wealth managers and global franchises.

Top 5 clients contribute 30% of revenues and Top 10 clients contribute 50% of revenues

RATIONALE: Customer access and address more areas of Sofgen customers’ spend The key rationale of the acquisition lies in the customer access facilitated to

TECHM. Sofgen’s services have been limited to platform migration and implementation of the solution at the customer site. The acquisition enhances TECHM’s capability to offer more end to end services in the BFSI vertical which encompasses both run-the-business and change the business propositions like Digital service transformations, IMS.

Sofgen has various IPs, tools and accelerators which will help improve TECHMs cycle time and reduce cost of implementations. Consultants (400+) of Sofgen come with a higher degree of core banking knowledge which TECHM will need time and experience to develop the capability organically.

TECHMs scale provides them to bid for larger deal sizes, and address 80-90% of acquired client relationships’ client spend, compared to ~10% addressable by Sofgen.

OUR TAKE: Long sought access to BFSI customers, but not yet in the US market While the acquisition has negligible impact on TECHM’s financials, its lends

access to some large BFSI accounts, something that the company has been seeking for long.

However, we see the transaction as only a small step towards the larger goal of scaling BFSI segment – given that it still does not open up the lucrative scale of US and large Europen banking clients for TECHM directly.

It remains to be seen how much scale can TECHM derive from providing additional services to banking and wealth management customers in other regions.

CHANGE IN ESTIMATES: Marginal EPS dilution in FY15, accretion in FY16 Our revenue estimate for FY16 is up by 1pp, but our earnings estimate is largely unchanged, factoring the financials of Sofgen and the consideration paid by TECHM. Factoring high single digit EBITDA margins at Sofgen, the impact on the merged entity is only 10bp.

Source: Company, MOSL

Valuation and view: Expect continued growth leadership with stable margins Prospects of revenue growth at the top-end of the industry band remain

sanguine at TECHM due to multiple reasons: 1. Success in large deal wins is an encouraging indicator of TECHM’s

improving competitive prowess, even in the Enterprise segment. With three large deal wins in Manufacturing beginning to come through, prowess in Telecom will likely be compounded with Enterprise too, keeping growth outlook sanguine.

2. Also, its expertise in the Telecom vertical has thus far overshadowed the structural concerns in the client industry, as it continues to increase its share within its top accounts.

3. Network management services have potentially expanded the addressable market for TECHM, with directly addressable spend standing at ~USD40b. Additionally, opportunity going forward comes from increased adoption of offshore services by Continental Europe.

4. TECHM also has a sizeable scale in Engineering services, and the opportunity in the same can be leveraged, especially after the acquisition of Mahindra Engineering Services (MES)

While the integration of LCC to TECHM’s numbers will dent the margins in the near term (120bp impact on current base of 20%) along with wage hikes (150bp impact), we expect the company to operate its margins in a band of 19-21%, especially as the cost efficiencies at LCC help improve the margins from 8% currently to 12%. The acquisition of Sofgen is only a small step towards the company’s much coveted scale in BFSI, but access to tier-I accounts in emerging economies can help drive some scale.

While cash flows generation has been a potential concern, TECHM’s OCF/EBITDA should average ~55%, close to TCS’ 60%. Also, TECHM’s active inorganic foray has ensured relatively better capital allocation v/s peers, and its track record of successfully integrating companies keeps prospects of profitably scaling into the big league sanguine.

We expect TECHM to grow its USD revenue at a CAGR of 20.7% over FY15-17 and EPS at a CAGR of 21.9% during this period. At 15.5x FY16E EPS, the stock is above its 5-year average, justifiably given the improvement in revenue growth and margins, following merger with Satyam and increasing irrelevance of BT. Our Target Price of INR3,100 discounts FY17E EPS by 15x, following expectation of sustained above-industry growth over the medium term. Maintain Buy.
