PAT was 33% above our estimates led by margin beat and higher other income (aided by reversal in earn out payment and forex gains). Revenues at USD226.2mn were up 5.4% QoQ and up 15.6% YoY above our estimates (PLe: USD222mn). EBIDTA margin for the quarter came at 16.1% up 100bps QoQ and above our estimates (Ple : 15%). Within verticals, momentum was strong across portfolio baring BFSI. Mindtree guided for momentum in revenue growth to continue in FY19E aided by strong deal pipeline and improved deal closures. However, Mindtree s guided that FY19E USD revenue growth would be better than FY18 which is ambiguous considering the strong exit revenue runrate and positive growth commentary (Mindtree delivered only 8.6% USD revenue growth in FY18E). Mindtree preponed wage hikes to 1QFY19E (compared to staggered wage hikes given over 2Q and 3Q every year). We read the preponing of wage hikes as positive which could also indicate robust revenue growth outlook for the company. However, company cited that wage hikes would be 300bps headwind for 1QFY19E margins. We believe that strong revenue growth could partially offset the headwinds from wage hikes in 1Q. Mindree needs to deliver strong execution over 2Q 4Q to gradually recoup the margins. Mindtree guided that FY19E EBIDTA margins would be better than FY18 (which is 13.6% EBIDTA margin for FY18). Despite strong exit EBIDTA margin (16.1%), full year FY19E margin guidance looks conservative. Led by strong exit revenue runrate, we raise our USD revenue growth estimates and now expect Mindtree to grow by 17% USD revenue growth for FY19E (vs 12.7% modeled earlier). We revise Mindtree EBIDTA margin estimates to 15.5/16.5% for FY19/FY20E (vs 15.3/16% earlier). We also increase our effective tax rate assumption to 27% (vs 25% earlier).we upgrade our EPS estimates for FY19/FY20E by 7/10% to Rs39/48.5/sh. Mindtree trades at 17.8x FY20E EPS (TCS trading at 20x FY20E EPS). Mindtree is likely to grow 2x the pace of TCS in FY19E which could help stock command robust P/E multiples. We note that Mindtree traded at par and even premium (vs TCS) on valuation front during FY15 FY16. Led by revenue growth upgrade, we further rerate the stock and value Mindtree at 19x FY20E (vs 15.5x FY20E EPS modelled earlier). This yields a TP of Rs930/sh which is a 35% upgrade in TP.

Revenues from Top 2 10 accounts were up 0.8% QoQ led by leakage in select banking clients. Volume growth for the quarter stood at 7.8% QoQ(Onsite volumes up 7.3% QoQ and offshore volumes up 7.9% QoQ). Blend pricing dropped by 1.9% (Onsite pricing up 0.1% QoQ and offshore pricing down 4.1% QoQ). Technology Media Entertainment vertical revenues were up 8% QoQ led by growth in Microsoft account. Retail &CPG vertical revenues were up 8.6% QoQ which Travel vertical revenues were up 9.6% QoQ remained solid. Within verticals, BFSI vertical was down 4% QoQ and remained weak. Hence, excluding BFSI, momentum was strong across verticals. Digital accounted to 45% of total revenues and grew by 8.1% QoQ and 31.4% YoY.

Margins show good improvement: EBITDA Margin for the quarter came at 16.1% up 100bps QoQ and above our estimates (Ple: 15%). Improvement in revenue growth and stabilization in effort mix in favour of offshore appear to have aided margins. For the full year FY18, Mindtree has delivered an EBIDTA margin of 13.6% down 10bps YoY. However, EBIDTA margin stood at 16.1% which leads to a solid exit EBIDTA margin for Mindtree. Mindtree management has guided for YoY improvement in EBIDTA margin in FY19E which appears conservative considering the strong exit EBIDTA margin. We build FY19E EBIDTA margin at 15.5% which represents a 190bps YoY improvement. Mindtree has preponed wage hikes to 1QFY19 and company would also have additional visa expenses in 1Q every year (Though a lower quantum this year). However, strong revenue growth could partially negate the margin headwinds for 1Q. Mindtree would need to execute steadily to recoup EBIDTA margins over 2Q 4QFY19 to deliver a steady full year margin print.
