Industry Outlook: According to Nelson Hall, the global software testing market is estimated at ~$15.675 bn per annum. The testing market is likely to grow much faster at over 8% CAGR over CY14-17E. Testing market can be split into four key categories: Functional Testing, Enterprise Resource Planning/Business Intelligence/Data warehouse, Non-functional testing, Consultancy and Other. Highest growth rates expected in Financial Services, Energy & Utilities, Retail & Logistics. The main challenge of the industry is to move from labour-intensive activities towards more automated ones. Vendors are proactively developing proprietary tools and Intellectual Patents (IPs) to increase automation levels. Several vendors are aiming to sell their IPs as license products. This initiative may prove favourable to clients or not, will depend if vendors spend the additional revenue from licensing IPs in additional R&D or use it for increasing their profitability. It will also depend whether vendors start behaving like Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), e.g. in terms of feature roadmaps. Platform-based testing is an emerging trend, with testing work managed, decided and carried out by the client, deciding on personnel allocation, with some level of personnel sharing across clients. This approach is perceptive in mobile app testing. Cloud testing is another platform-based testing offering, again with delivery being organized by the vendor and increasing based on using its tools and processes, rather than the clients. Mobile app testing and cloud sourcing testing in their platform-based versions are emerging phenomena. India Ratings & Research Agency expects the growth of IT service providers to remain soft and range between 8-9% in FY17E on the back of the flat-to-marginally negative IT budgets of clients. Tighter budgets would compel clients to offshore the traditional labour-based offerings to India while they would also press for a pass-on of benefits of automation. Although increasing, the budget allocation for the new cloud based technologies and digitalisation remains low; and the contract size remains small as these projects are still in the pilot phase.

SQS has a three decade experience specifically in software testing serving to verticals like BFSI, Retail, Manufacturing, Energy & Utility and Telecommunications. BFSI became the part of leading testing company. More than 5% of SQS revenue is derived from BFSI; and going forward, maximum of it may be delivered through SQS India BFSI, due to its deep BFSI domain knowledge expertise. With over 15M person hours of track record in Financial Services testing, SQS has a strong client base, including half of the DAX 3, nearly a third of the STOXX 5 and 2% of the FTSE 1 companies. These include Allianz, Beazley, BP, Centrica, Commerzbank, Daimler, Deutsche Post, Generali, JP Morgan, Meteor, Reuters, UBS and Volkswagen. Due to SQS strong client base, SQS India BFSI is poised for better earnings in the foreseeable future. As a result of this acquisition, Thinksoft name changed to SQS India BFSI. With the result of this acquisition, SQS India BFSI turned to an organization of increased size and scale which created a platform for accelerated growth with the potential to propel Thinksoft into new orbit. 3
The revenue growth traction would continue going forward as well, as it would be driven by a multipronged strategy that includes direct client acquisition, inorganic additions through group and outsourced business from the parent. Before acquisition, the consolidated revenue was Rs. 1,614 mn in FY13. Over FY13-FY15, the company recorded CAGR revenue growth of 15%. We estimate the revenue will grow at a CAGR of 14% in FY15-FY18E. Going ahead, margin expansion will continue from 17% in FY15 to 19% in FY18E due to revenue acceleration, changing business mix and employee cost rationalization. Exhibit 6: Revenue (Rs.

Mn) EBITDA Margins (%) New Customers bringing in higher onsite revenue: In FY15, in geographic terms, 46% of revenues came from Europe, 32% from India, Middle East & Africa (IMEA) and Australia Regions and 22% from North America and the proportion of onsite to offshore revenues stood at 55:45 percent. However, before acquisition in FY13, the revenue split was 35% from Europe, 38% from IMEA and 27% from North America. In FY15, revenue from onsite services increased slightly from 53% to 55% due to the addition of new customers where initial requirements were onsite; plus existing customers requiring short term increases in onsite projects. Currently, SQS India BFSI is having 54 active clients from different regions; and in FY16E, for the past three quarters, the company added 24 new clients. The company currently serves several Tier I banks such as Barclays, RBS, JPM, UBS, Lloyds, Allianz, Generali etc., As Europe contributes 46% of revenue which includes many German clients, the company is training its employees in German language which is creating an opportunity to serve the clients in more desirable way. The revenue per client has increased significantly from Rs. 22 mn in FY11 to ~Rs.37 mn in Q3FY16. Further, continuous strategy of SQS to improve profitability by terminating lower margin clients and bag long term contracts helping to improve attractive margins. Also, the company is having client concentration of 5% revenue from top 5 clients and 7% from top 1 clients. The company has diversified the revenue distribution with many clients rather than depending only on top 5 clients which shows that the company is playing safe and reducing the client concentration risk.

In FY15, geographically, 46% of revenues came from Europe, 32% from IMEA and Australia Regions and 22% from North America. SQS AG has ~75% client from non-english speaking countries and ~25% clients from English speaking countries. The company has recently trained more than 5 employees for german speaking and over 2 already have level A1 language certification in anticipation of starting offshoring requirements from Germany, Austria and Switzerland., *MENA: Middle East and North Africa **ANZ: Australia and New Zealand According to Nelson Hall 214 report, US is the largest market of $7,375 mn over for software testing over the total market of $15,675 mn. SQS AG was having very less presence in US and mainly into BFSI, so post acquisition of Thinksoft in Nov 213, they have entered US software testing market in a big way. Management is very keen to focus its presence in US for which they have recently acquired two US based consulting companies with strong clientele across various verticals. Acquired Galmont for US$ 22 Mn which is a leading software testing consultancy in the Mid-west region of the US, with a presence in Chicago, Dallas, New York and Kentucky with revenue of US$ 17 Mn in 214 and PBT of US$ 1.1 Mn. SQS also acquired Trissential for US$ 3.7 Mn which is a leading IT project, programmer and portfolio management consultancy in the Mid-West region of the US with a presence in Minneapolis, Milwaukee and Chicago. Going ahead, SQS India BFSI may garner maximum portion of parent s US BFSI revenue for its offshore delivery model and due to its deep domain expertise. Revenue growth 19%; PAT increase 31% compared with previous year Nine Months period: During 9MFY16 period, operating revenue was Rs. 1,919 Mn as compared to Rs.1,616 Mn during the corresponding period of previous year, reflecting an increase of 19% in rupee terms; and Net profit stood at Rs. 263 Mn during 9MFY16 as compared to Rs. 2 Mn in the corresponding period of the previous year, reflecting an increase of 31%. This is due to management is geared to deliver high growth over Medium-to-Long-term on the back of increasing presence in US and higher share from parent. Management is very keen to keep the attrition at its optimum level of less than 2%. EBITDA Margin is at 17.3% in FY15. We expect the margins will move further to hit the 19.3% level in FY18E. The current EPS stood at Rs. 2.9 in FY15 and this will move further to Rs. 4. in FY18E. Finally, the company is expected to benefit from SQS brand leverage, incremental migration revenue from parent and better prospects for independent testing/quality companies. We believe its profitability will improve further as the migration revenue share increases going forward.
