Coforge’s organic revenue growth for FY27 is likely to be impacted by exit of low-margin India portfolio and weak exit runrate in its largest vertical BFS. It has a healthy next-12-month orderbook (up 16% YoY), and agreements with UK public sector clients not yet included in order book could lead to healthy revenue recovery from Q2FY27.

Coforge delivered a strong performance in FY26, growing 29.2% in dollar terms for the full year, with Q4FY26 EBIT margins stood at a record 16.6%, expanded by 430bps YoY mainly driven by AI-led automation of internal processes, SG&A leverage, and third-party cost reduction. The executable order book stands at USD 1.75bn (up 16.4% YoY), with additional framework agreements from the UK public sector not yet reflected in this number. Management guided for FY27 EBITDA margins of 20.521% (consolidated) and standalone EBIT of 16.517%, representing a structural reset not cyclical one. Free cash flow guidance upgraded sharply to ~100% of PAT from prior...

Given the company's strong growth potential, backed by robust deal wins and superior execution capabilities, we maintain our BUY rating on the stock.

Steady revenue growth & strong margin expansion in Q4 Deal momentum continues with healthy order intake The revenue growth performance (2.0% QoQ CC) was tad above our estimates (1.8% QoQ CC), aided by broad-based growth excluding BFS. The softness in BFS was led by client-specific challenges along with the transition of new senior leader. However, management anticipates BFS recovery, as it progresses through FY27, aided by large deal wins. Deal momentum remained strong with 21 large deals in FY26, with healthy order intake of US$ 648mn in Q4 & executable order book of US$ 1.75bn (+16.4% YoY)....

Our Take: The deal enhances Coforge's structural strengths yet, we turn cautious due to - (i) potential earnings dilution in FY27 despite management's accretion commentary and (ii) PE investor stake-sale overhang. Given deal size and leverage/QIP optionality, we also see risk of multiple compression, until integration progress becomes visible as market sentiment and valuation may...
