Infosys vs. TCS
Premium to accrue over the next few quarters
INDIA | IT SERVICES | Sector Update
21 March 2016
Recent outperformance of Infosys in sharp contrast to the sector Over the last few months, Infosys’ stock has significantly outperformed TCS’ (3m – TCS 1%, Infosys +12%). Even over 6/12 months, Infosys has outperformed (6m Infosys +9% vs. TCS ‐7%; 12m Infosys +4%, TCS ‐13%) – as the company continues to deliver ahead of expectations, in a weak macro environment for Indian IT services.
History points at Infosys gaining a premium vs. TCS soon: We see a build‐up over two years Our analysis of the one‐year‐forward P/E multiples of TCS and Infosys over the last eleven years (since TCS’ listing) reveals that Infosys starts trading at a premium to TCS as soon as its growth rate is about to come at par with TCS. However, TCS needs to report consistently superior growth to trade at a premium to Infosys. Over the last eleven years, TCS has traded at a premium to Infosys in two prolonged periods (October 2007 to April 2008 and April 2011 to December 2015) – when the company had delivered much superior results to Infosys.
We attribute the historical premium that Infosys has enjoyed over TCS to the former’s superior margins pre‐2010. Over 2009‐2014, as its margins fell by 640bps, TCS’ expanded by 490bps – this, along with the latter’s superior growth rate, led to TCS gaining a significant premium over Infosys. We see Infosys reclaiming its industry‐leading growth position over the next two years and expanding margins – therefore, we see TCS’ valuation premium turning into a discount.
Also, we note that the maximum premium/discount that either company has enjoyed over the other has remained ~20% ‐ with a peak at 40%. Overall, the premium that Infosys has had over TCS, in the +/‐ 1σ range, has been 3.4.
Infosys: All set to regain the bellwether tag Infosys’s 3QFY16 guidance‐upgrade implies that the company will report superior growth to TCS in FY16, even if achieves only the lower end of its guidance. The management expects to report industry‐leading growth in FY17 (their internal target is 16% USD revenue growth in FY17), but we expect this to happen by FY18. With its aspirations to reach US$ 20bn in revenues (with US$ 1.5bn from acquisitions and 10% from new services) with EBIT margins of 30% by 2020, we believe the company is all set to regain its bellwether tag.
Over the last seven quarters, Infosys has shown a remarkable turnaround in its operating metrics – the number of its +US$ 200/100/50/30mn clients have increased to 6/14/50/85 from 3/13/42/70. With TCV of US$ 2bn in 9MFY16, it has already surpassed its total deal wins in FY15 (US$ 1.95bn). We expect the strong growth momentum based on these improving operating metrics to continue.
TCS: Signs of the engine slowing down 3QFY16 was the sixth consecutive quarter in which TCS missed expectations, which we see as signs of the large base and high expectations catching up. For TCS to grow in double digits on its current base, it needs to add US$ 1.6bn revenues annually – a herculean task for any company. Given the persistent weakness in its telecom, insurance, and E&U verticals (25% of revenues), we expect TCS to fail to achieve double‐digit growth in FY17 and beyond.
Also, TCS appears to be quite reluctant to adopt the inorganic route to acquire delivery capabilities in the digital space (read our detailed report here, in which we highlighted this as the main rationale for downgrading the sector). While all its competitors – Infosys, Wipro, TechM, and Mindtree – have been acquiring niche companies in the digital space, TCS continues to focus on its in‐house capabilities – which we believe will be difficult to market due to the global ‘perception’ of Indian IT companies.
Upgrading multiple for Infosys – parity turns into premium We upgrade our valuation multiple for Infosys to 20x (from 18x earlier) and TP to Rs 1420 from Rs 1280. For TCS, we maintain our valuation multiple at 18x and TP at Rs 2525. We expect the 10% premium (which we have assigned to Infosys) to gradually expand over the next few quarters. We maintain Buy on Infosys and Neutral on TCS.
