Persistent Systems (3QFY19): Operational resilience, benign valuations. Maintain BUY

Buy: Persistent Systems Ltd.

Target

HDFC Securities

Maintain BUY with TP of Rs 815, 14x Dec-20E EPS. Persistent (PSYS) posted in-line revenue and an operational beat in 3Q. While the revenue growth was muted (despite seasonality tailwind), operational improvement seems sustainable supported by (1) Higher offshoring (in large accounts), (2) Better mix (higher Salesforce, Appian channel contribution) and (3) Utilisation increase. Revenue came at USD 120.8mn, +2.2% QoQ led by Digital (+6.4% QoQ) and Accelerite (+7.8% QoQ), offset by Services (-0.4% QoQ) and Alliance (+1.9% QoQ).

Q3FY19 Result Update - Steady performance led by strong margin execution

Accumulate: Persistent Systems Ltd.

Prabhudas Lilladhar

modelled earlier). Our USD/INR assumptions are at 70/72/72.5 for FY19/20/21E. Led by strong margin execution in Q3 we now model EBITDA margins at 17.9/16.9/18% for FY19/FY20/FY21E (vs 16.9/16.8/18% modelled earlier). Persistent's revenue growth for FY19 would be lowest among midcap peers. Hence, stock is likely to remain trading at cheap P/E multiples over the medium term. Stock trades at 10.7x FY20E EPS and 9.7x Sep20E EPS. We marginal upgrade our EPS estimate for FY19 by 1.1% to Rs46. However, we...

IP revenue volatility continues: Persistent Systems indicated better revenue growth and margin improvement in H2FY19 which will partly mitigate the impact of one-offs in Q2FY19. Revenue growth will be supported by good deal wins, project starts in Q2FY19, higher contribution from healthcare business (strong demand on the digital side and higher deal sizes), meaningful jump in IP business and the reseller segment due to seasonally strong Q3FY19. In Q2FY19, it has added net 400 people reflecting strong project pipeline. Margin improvement will be supported by better sales mix...
