BUY
Pushing the right buttons…
Zensar is a part of the RPG group of companies. The company provides
application development, digital and cloud infrastructure services. Vertical
wise, the company generates 51.3% of revenues from manufacturing,
22.2% from retail & consumer services, 23.2% from financial services and
the rest from emerging verticals. In geographical terms, major revenue
contributor is Americas (75.2%) followed by Europe (14.3%), Africa (8.8%)
and RoW (1.7%). We believe Zensar, with its acquisition in the core
implementation and digital arena, can now effectively compete and win
scale projects. This will enable the company to make inroads into top global
companies (major tech spenders) and win large deals. In addition, Zensar’s
digital capability (~44% of revenues) will enable the company to witness
sustainable long term growth over the next few years.
Large deal wins, digital, client mining key growth levers
In 2016, there was a change in management and Sandeep Kishore from HCL
Tech joined as CEO. The new CEO’s focus on building digital capability has
led to four acquisition over the past three years. These acquisition coupled
with organic RPA tools & platforms have enabled the company to develop a
full scale digital practice. We believe this will enable Zensar to participate in
full scale digital deals and also help win large deals. Further, in order to
improve large deal wins, the company has constituted large deal teams and
engaged with third-party outsourcing agents. In addition, Zensar has aligned
its sales incentive plan in line with the new strategic focus. Based on these
factors, coupled with focus on mining top 50 clients, we expect revenues to
grow at a healthy pace in the long term.
Divestment of non-core, operational efficiency to drive margins
Over FY16-19, the company witnessed pressure on margins, mainly due to
acquisitions and lower margins in non-core business [like Rest of the World
and multi-vendor support (MVS)]. However, going forward, we expect
margins to improve led by divestment of non-core business (that will help
reduce long & short term debt & improve margins) and scale in large deal
wins. We expect margins to improve from 10.2% in FY19 to 10.7% in FY21E.
Valuation & Outlook
Zensar is well placed in terms of providing IT services in the digital space.
Further, focus on large deal wins and mining of top 50 clients bodes well for
revenue growth in the long term. In addition, we expect higher organic
growth, divestment of non-core business and scale in large deals to boost
margins. Consequently, the company is expected to register revenue and
PAT CAGR of 11.7% and 15.6% over FY19-21E, respectively. Considering
the robust growth, we have a BUY recommendation on Zensar and assign a
P/E multiple of ~11x (PEG of 0.6) leading to a target price of | 210/share.

Investment Rationale
Focus on large deals, client mining to drive topline
The company has constituted large deal teams to win deals in the US$10-20
million categories. The large deal team will bring in expertise around
bidding, pricing and structuring of large deals. Further, to increase
participation in large deal wins the company is engaging with third-party
outsourcing agents. Zensar is also focusing on deal sizes with TCV of US$10
million+ using its differentiation in automation frameworks, multi-service
focus and digital prowess. In addition, the company has aligned its sales
incentive plan in line with the new strategic focus. The initiatives of the
company are visible in client addition, which has increased from four in FY16
to nine in FY19 in the US$10 million plus category. Apart from winning large
deals, the company is focusing on mining of top 50 clients, which has led to
growth in top 6-10 clients and top 20 clients that have grown at a CAGR of
11.7% and 9.9%, respectively, over FY16-19. In addition, the company is
making healthy client addition in the US$5 million category to scale these
clients up to the US$10 million and US$20 million category. Based on these
factors, we expect revenues to grow at a healthy pace in the long term.

Digital as percentage of revenue one of highest among peers
Zensar has one of the highest digital revenues (~44%) among its peers.
Over the years, the company has built its digital capabilities majorly by
acquisition. Over FY15-19, the company acquired five companies to build its
digital capabilities. Zensar has made two acquisition in digital customer
experience (Foolpoof and Indigo Slate) while the two other companies viz.
Keystone Logistic Solution & Professional Access are expected to
strengthen its Oracle practice (which we believe is one-third of its total
revenues). In addition, the company, through acquisition of Cynosure, has
strengthened its Guidewire implementation services. Further, the company
also has organic RPA tools and platforms such as The Vinci typically
deployed in IMS deals. Hence, with the acquisitions and organic strength,
the company has developed a full scale digital practice. We believe this will
enable the company to provide an end to end service, participate in full scale
digital deals and also help win large deals.

CAGR of 11.7% and 9.9%, respectively, over FY16-

Cost optimisation & change in onsite mix key margin levers
Over FY16-19, the company has witnessed pressure on margins mainly due
to acquisitions and lower margins in non-core business (like Rest of the
World and multi vendor support (MVS)). However, to improve margins,
Zensar has indicated at divesting its non-core business. The company has
also taken a step in this direction and completely exited the RoW business
in Q1FY20 for | 16.9 crore. The RoW business had revenue of ~| 67.5 crore
implying an EV/sales of 0.25x. Zensar is also planning to exit the MVS
business, which is ~4% of the topline or | 189 crore. We believe the
company will be divesting its business by FY21E. Assuming 0.5x EV/sales
the company would be able to raise | 100 crore. This may be used to pare
debt and improve net margins.
Further, the MVS business is also working capital heavy, which will help the
company in reducing short-term debt thereby improving margins and RoE.
Apart from this low hanging fruit, Zensar also has certain levers, which can
boost margins in the long term. The company is currently focusing on
winning large deals, which initially have transition cost and onsite heavy
headcount. Hence, we believe these large deals are margin dilutive in the
near term but will be margin positive in the medium term. In addition, we
believe Zensar’s high onsite mix can be a long term trigger for margins to
improve. Further, we expect margins in acquired companies to improve in
coming years. Hence, overall, we expect margins to improve marginally in
the near term. However, in the long term, we expect margins to be in line
with its peer group.

Key management changes to drive growth
In 2016, there was a change in management and Sandeep Kishore from HCL
Tech joined as CEO. The new CEO aimed to strengthen the leadership team
and grow its digital business. In order to strengthen the digital business, the
new CEO did four acquisition in the past three years. Further, the new CEO
brought in a new leadership in sales, top accounts and vertical heads to drive
growth in the company in the coming years. The changes made in the
leadership team are depicted below:

Return ratios to improve in the long term
The company’s RoE has taken a hit (down from 25.1% in FY15 to 16.1% in
FY19) mainly due to a decline in margins, acquisition, and increase in debt.
We expect return ratios to remain in the 16.0% range in the near term due
to the company’s focus on winning large deals (that are margin dilutive in
the near term), higher onsite mix and near term weakness in retail vertical.
However, in the longer term, we expect RoE to improve mainly led by scale
benefits of large deals, shift in onsite mix, improved pricing in digital
revenues and improving margins in acquired entities. In addition, the
company’s divesture of non-core revenues could also lead to lower long
term and short term debt. Hence, we believe the company would register
healthy return ratios in the longer term.

Key risks
Client concentration: The company’s top 20 clients account for 57% of
topline. In addition, the company’s exposure to top client is also high. Hence,
any client specific challenge could adversely impact the company’s
financials.
Higher exposure to retail vertical: The retail vertical accounts for ~22% of
revenues. Players in the retail vertical have been under pressure due to
competition from online retailers. One of the retail clients of Zensar had filed
for bankruptcy, which led to a write-down. In addition, in Q2, the retail
vertical was impacted due to ramp down by few clients. Hence, any adverse
turn of events in retail vertical could impact the company’s revenues.
Acquisition led growth: Over the years, the company has grown through
acquisitions. These acquisitions impact margins in the near term as
witnessed historically. In the event that the company is unable to
successfully turn around its acquisition (in future), it could impact its margins
in near term.
