Tech Mahindra - Satyam discloses 1Q/2QFY11 financials; weak numbers.


 Highlights of Satyam’s financials. Satyam’s 1QFY11 and
2QFY11 revenues stood at `12.5bn (~US$274m) and `12.4bn
(~US$267m) with EBITDA margin of 9.7% and 5.9%
respectively. PAT stood at `1,054m and `317m respectively
(other income includes forex gain of `336m & loss of 91m
respectively).


 Operating metrics. Headcount was 27,722 & 28,068 in 1Q &
2Q respectively; attrition stood at ~25%. Utilisation was at ~71%
in 2Q. BPO headcount was 2,500. Europe contributes 26% to
Satyam’s revenue. The onsite:offshore revenue mix is ~58:42.
DSO stood at 100; client count (+US$250m) was at ~217.

 Other details. Net cash at end-2Q stood stood at `24.9bn.
Satyam gave 15% and 3% salary hike to its offshore and onsite
employees respectively in 2Q. Mahindra Satyam saw healthy
traction in the manufacturing, telecom and media verticals, while
the healthcare division remained a laggard. Upaid litigation
continues over tax liability on US$70m, which was the settlement
amount. Satyam is contesting class-action lawsuits; the outcome is
not determinable at this stage.

 Our view. Though there is clarity on Satyam’s margins, they
stand lower than anticipated. We await clarity on Upaid (tax
liability) and class-action lawsuits. We retain our target price of
`845 for TechM (including `245 from Satyam, based on 25%
holding company discount) till we formalise estimates for Satyam.
