II. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW:

 

IT Services:

 

The  shift  in  the role of Information and  Technology  (IT)  from  merely supporting business to transforming business, is driving productivity gains and helping create new business models. This has led to an increase in  the

importance of IT. The increasing acceptance of outsourcing and  off-shoring of  activities  as an economic necessity has contributed to  the  continued growth  in the revenue. As corporate and businesses adjust to 'new  normal' post  the  recent  global  recession, they will  need  to  transform  their business   models  to  the  changed  economic  and  business   environment. Consequently,  they will have to make significant investments in  IT.  This

opens up opportunities for them to offer the consulting, Systems  Integration services  and  leverage  the Global Delivery footprint and  thus  help  the customers in their transformation journey.

 

These  opportunities are also reflected in the forecasts of market  growth. IDC forecasts worldwide IT services spending of approximately $695  billion by  2013,  reflecting  a compounded annual growth rate  or  CAGR  of  3.3%. However, Forrester US and Global IT Market Outlook Q4 2009 , predicts  that U.S. IT market will grow by 6.6% in 2010 following a drop of 8.2% in  2009. Similarly, according to NASSCOM Strategic Review Report 2010, the worldwide BPO market is expected to touch $ 148 billion by 2013, representing a CAGR, of 6.11%. Key factors supporting this projection are the growing impact  of technology  led innovation, the increasing demand for global  sourcing  and gradually   evolving   socio-political  attitudes.  Global   Delivery   led organizations  are  expected to get an increased share of the  IT  services spends due to the powerful combination of scale, quality and cost  embedded in  their business model. In India, the IT services market is estimated  to account for 39% of the domestic IT industry. The key verticals driving  the growth  of  the  IT services market  are  Retail,  Government,  Healthcare, Telecom  and  Manufacturing.  However, according to IDC's  report  -  India domestic  IT/ITeS  market top 10 predictions for 2010, the  India  domestic IT/ITeS  market growth rate will come down from an average of 24%  recorded during 2003-08 to 14.6% over the next five years to 2013.

 

IT PRODUCTS:

 

According  to  NASSCOM  Strategic Review Report 2010,  IDC  forecasts  that worldwide hardware spending will increase from $600 billion in 2008 to $680 billion in 2013, representing a CAGR of 2.53%.

 

According  to NASSCOM Strategic Review Report 2010, the hardware market  in India is estimated to account for 39% of the domestic IT industry,  growing at about 3% in 2010. Personal computers (including desktops and  notebooks) continue  to  be  purchased  at higher rates than  other  products  in  the hardware  market.  As prices come down, notebooks  are  increasingly  being adopted  as  the  computing  device of choice.  For  the  desktop  segment, consumers  are  showing  an increasing trend of moving  away  from  locally assembled  items  towards  branded  products  with  relatively  higher  end configurations.

 

CONSUMER CARE AND LIGHTING:

 

The   consumer  care  market  includes  personal  care   products,   soaps, toiletries, infant care products, modular switch lights and modular  office furniture.  They  have a strong brand presence in a niche  segment  and  have significant market share in select regions in India. In addition, they have a strong presence in the market for personal care products in south-east Asia and Middle-East Asia.

 

AC Nielsen estimates that India is amongst the fastest growing  geographies for  FMCG,  with  a 2009 growth rate of 14.0%  for  the  non-food  segment, largely led by price increases. This market is estimated to grow at a  CAGR

of 8% - 10% for the period 2010-2013. The household and personal care  FMCG market in the other Asian countries in which they operate including Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia, are expected to grow at a CAGR of 8% for the  period 2010-2013.

 

The  Indian domestic market for institutional lighting and  office  modular furniture is estimated at U.S. $ 600 million and is expected to grow at the rate  of 10% to 15% for the period 2010-2011. Key sectors  contributing  to

the  growth  are  expected  to be  modern  work  spaces,  IT-ITeS,  Retail, Healthcare and Government Infrastructure spending.

 

They  expect  to  increase the market share  organically  in  the  identified geographies.  In  addition  they continue to look  at  acquiring  established brands which complement the brand presence and distribution strengths.

 

Others:

 

In  the  other segment, Wipro Infrastructure Engineering (WIN) is  the  key business  segment.  They sell hydraulic cylinders and truck  tipping  systems that  are  used in variety of earth moving, material handling,  mining  and construction equipments.

 

III. OPPORTUNITY AND THREATS:

 

IT Services:

 

Global  companies are increasingly turning to offshore  technology  service providers  in order to meet their need for high quality,  cost  competitive technology  solutions. Technology companies have been outsourcing  software

research  and  development  and  related  support  functions  to   offshore technology  service  providers  to reduce cycle time  for  introducing  new products and services.

 

According to NASSCOM Strategic Review Report 2009, IDC forecasts a CAGR  of over 6.18% in offshore IT spending, for the period 2008-13.

 

As  a  de-risking  strategy, companies have moved from  giving  mega  large orders  to  breaking up of deals to get better price  advantage.  This  has opened  up  opportunities for Indian IT companies to participate  in  these large  multi-million  dollar deals. Global companies  are  expanding  their outsourcing  activities to leverage the high quality, cost  competitive  IT services from India.

 

They  believe the strong brand, robust quality process and access to  skilled talent base at lower costs places them in a unique position to take advantage of the trend towards outsourcing IT services.

 

They believe that the global delivery model allows them to provide services  on a  best  shore  basis. Customers benefit from  round  the  clock  execution schedules,  quality control measures and best in class resources pooled  in across geographies for high quality delivery and risk management  practices to ensure uninterrupted services.

 

OUTLOOK:

 

During the financial year ending March 2010, they grew the Revenues by 6%  to Rs.  271,414  million  and  Profit After Tax (PAT) by  19%  to  Rs.  46,310 million.  Over the last decade, they have grown the Revenues at the  CAGR  of 28% and PAT at the CAGR of 31%.

 

They  have  followed a practice of providing only revenue  guidance  for  the largest business segment, namely, IT Services. The guidance is provided  at the  release of every quarterly earnings when detailed Revenue outlook  for the succeeding quarter is shared. Over the years, the Company has performed in line with quarterly Revenue guidance.

 

On April 23, 2010, along with the earnings release for quarter ended  March 31,  2010, they provided the most recent quarterly guidance. Revenue from  IT Services  segment  for  the quarter ending June 30, 2010 is  likely  to  be ranged between USD 1,161-1,183 million on a constant currency basis.

Performance for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 and Outlook for the quarter ending December 31, 2010

 

Azim Premji Chairman of Wipro, commenting on the results said –

 

“We saw strong momentum in demand as customers tried to catch up with the under-investment in IT in the previous years. We continue to enhance our investments in Transformational Capabilities, Client Partners and Domain Solutions. While the macro-economic environment continues to remain uncertain, there is higher degree of confidence at the micro level. For the quarter ended December 31, 2010, we expect Revenues from our IT Services business to be in the range of $1,317 million to $1,343 million, a sequential increase of 3.5% to 5.5%*”

 

Suresh Senapaty, Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer of Wipro, said –

 

“We saw a strong volume growth of 6.6% driven by higher offshore mix. The Operating Margins for IT  Services declined during the quarter due to the impact of employee progressions, Restricted Stock Units grants and lower foreign exchange realizations.”

About Non-GAAP financial measures

 

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. Such non-GAAP financial measures are measures of our historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that are adjusted to exclude or include amounts that are excluded or included, as the case may be, from the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.

 

The table on page 8 provides Adjusted Net Income for the period, which is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of accelerated amortization in respect of stock options that vest in a graded manner, and IT Services Revenue on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by translating IT Services Revenue from the current reporting period into U.S. dollars based on the currency conversion rate in effect for the prior reporting period.

 

These Non-GAAP financial measure are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition to these non-GAAP measure, the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure should be carefully evaluated.

 

We believe that the presentation of this Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding IFRS measure, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its Net Income for the period. We consider a stock option award with a graded vesting schedule to be in substance a single award not multiple stock option awards. Further, we consider the services of the employee in each year covered by the stock option award to be equally valuable and accordingly believe that the straight line amortization reflects the economic substance of the stock option awards. However, we record the related stock compensation expenses on an accelerated amortization basis for IFRS reporting. Therefore, we believe that making available an adjusted net income number that excludes the impact of accelerated amortization from Net Income provides useful supplemental information to both management and investors about financial and business trends.

 

For internal budgeting process, our management also uses financial statements that exclude the impact of accelerated amortization relating to stock options that vest in a graded manner. Management of the Company also uses Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, in addition to the corresponding IFRS measure, in reviewing our financial results.

 

A material limitation associated with the use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income as compared to the IFRS measure of Net Income is that it does not include costs which are recurring in nature and may not be comparable with the calculation of Net Income for other companies in our industry. We compensate for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the effects of this non-GAAP measure, by presenting the corresponding IFRS financial measure and by providing a reconciliation to the corresponding IFRS measure.

 

We believe that the presentation of IT Services Revenue on a non-GAAP constant currency basis, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding IFRS measure, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to IT Services Revenue. As noted above, IT Services Revenue on a non-GAAP constant currency basis is calculated by translating IT Services Revenue from the current reporting period into U.S. dollars based on the currency conversion rate in effect for the prior period. We refer to growth rates in constant currency so that business results may be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.
