First Thoughts post attending Hexaware Analyst Meet

Q1CY10 guidance surely a dampener, but co expects better performance after Q1

We (as well as the street) were negatively surprised by the co's revenue guidance for March'10 quarter at US$ 48-50 mn, which implies a 11%-7.5% QoQ decline in revenues.Our discussions with co management indicate that it has suffered from some abrupt project cancellations at one of the top clients. This combined with slower than expected ramp ups on some of the recent deal wins has contributed to the muted revenue guidance.

Margins could fall further in H1CY10

Hexaware's EBITDA margins during the quarter fell by ~ 580 bps QoQ to 17.9% on a/c of absence of one time income and currency appreciation.In our view, Hexaware's OPM's would see further fall in Q1CY10  and Q2CY10 as (1) revenues fall further in Q1 and (2) co would be hiking both offshore salaries (from Q2CY10 onwards) and onsite salaries (from Q3CY10 onwards) and hence build in 13.3% /14.4% margins in Q1CY10/Q2CY10, a significant markdown from margins reported during CY09. Co. management also indicated that margins could be soft during H1CY10. We estimate margins of 15.6%/17.2% for CY10/11 respectively.

Estimate CY10/11 earnings of Rs 7.6/Rs 11.1 respectively

We estimate earnings of Rs 7.6/Rs 11.1 for CY10/11 respectively which bakes in (1)CY10/11 revenues of US$ 219.5 mn (+2.3% YoY) and US$ 256 mn (+16.6% YoY) (note that CY11 revenues growth stands out mainly on a/c of CY10 exit rate) , (2) US$/INR exchange rate of Rs 45/$ for CY10/11  and (3) tax rates of 12%/22% for CY10/11 respectively. Also note that we build in forex losses of ~Rs 2.3/share in our CY10 estimates.

Valuations attractive, growth surge still some time away

At CMP of Rs 73, Hexaware trades at ~9.6x CY10E/6.6x CY11E earnings of Rs 7.6/11.1 respectively. With ~Rs 29/share of cash ( ~50% of CY09 Book value of Rs 58.6),we believe that downside in the stock is limited (stock's down by ~20% over past 1month) and valuations attractive, albeit revenue growth remains elusive for now. We are of the view that Hexaware is going through a transition with the shift in company's strategy to a vertical focussed organisation (V/s a horizontal focussed company earlier) which is driven by a revamped management team (as company continues to bring in top notch talent from Tier 1 competition). We would recommend buying into the stock on any further weakness.

We do not have a rating on the stock currently.

MAGFIL - Initiating Coverage ; Midas Touch ; BUY ; Target: Rs 900

Manappuram General Leasing and Finance (MAGFIL) is India's one of the few listed micro finance company with enviable presence in the loan against gold segment. Large population without access to banks, high gold prices and doubling of branch network (to 1500 over FY09-12E) will help MAGFIL's AUM grow by 8x over FY09-12E. We expect MAGFIL's net profit to grow by 12x (to Rs3.5bn) over FY09-12E, driven by strong AUMs growth and strong pricing power with NIMs of 16%+.

With robust risk management systems in place (3-stage appraisals, strong vaults and limiting the loan sizes to 15-20k), we expect MAGFIL to achieve this growth without compromising on the asset quality. We expect MAGFIL's net NPAs to move down from 1.4% to 0.2% of advances over FY09-12E.

We expect MAGFIL to report RoAs of 5%+ and RoEs of 35%+ over FY09-12E. The stock valuations at 2.3x FY12E ABV are quite attractive. As has happened with many other NBFCs, we expect MAGFIL's valuations to track its balance sheet growth. We recommend BUY with a TP of Rs900, valuing it at 3x FY12E ABV.

4952 – The next barrier:

With support from positive cues across the globe, Nifty started the day on a positive note. Going further, bulls managed to keep the ball in their court till the end with a close above 4900 on good volumes, which is a boost in the favor the bulls. The current scenario indicates that if Nifty manages to clear 4930 and above that 4952 then the bounce can extend up to 5070 level. Additionally, both hourly and daily cycles are currently standing in the support of the bulls, so the extension of the bounce up to 5070 level is quite possible.

BSE Metal:

BSE Metal continued its upside journey and broke the resistance of 16203 and finally closed above that at 16435 with a gain of 3.24%.On the daily chart as this index closed above the 21DEMA, thus we may witness some recovery in this index on account of which it can heighten upto 16636 levels.

BSE Bankex :

Buying was witness in the BSE Bankex and it broke the 21DEMA and finally closed above that at 9605 with a gain of 1.75%. Going forward now this index has resistance at 9729 and in the coming days if this index starts trading above this level then we will witness further upside.
