INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

US investment bank Goldman Sachs  has upgraded its outlook on Indian markets as it expects positive impact of the election cycle.

 

India’s economy may grow 4.7 % in the current financial year, lower than the official estimate of 4.9 %, Fitch Rating said. The global rating agency expects the economy to pick up in the next two financial years.

 

Global ratings agency Standard & Poor said increasing focus by India Inc on lowering debt is likely to improve their credit profiles.

 

Singapore (1.1 million Indian tourists in 2012), Thailand (one million), the United Arab Emirates ().98 million) and Malaysia ().82 million) emerged as the preferred holidays hotspots for Indians. The total figure is expected to increase to 1.93 million by 2017, according to the latest Eurmonitor international report.

 

There is a $29.34 bn outward foreign direct investment by domestic companies between April and January of 2013/14 which has seen some signs of recovery according to a Care Ratings report.

 

There are 264 number of new companies being set up every day on average during 2014. Most of them are registered in Mumbai. India had 1.38 million registered companies at the end of January, 2014.

 

Twitter like messaging service Weibo Corporation has filed to raise $ 500 million via a US initial public offering. Alibaba, which owns a stake in Weibo is expected to raise about $ 15 billion New York this year in the highest profile Internet IPO since Facebook’s in 2012.

 

Bharti Airtel has raised Rs.2,453.2 crore (350 million Swiss Francs) by selling six-year bonds at a coupon rate of three per cent and maturing in 2020. This is the largest ever bond offering by an Indian company in Swiss Francs. Bharat Petroleum Corporation raised 175 million Swiss Francs by selling five year bonds at 2.98 % coupon rate in February.

 

Indian Oil Corporation plans to invest Rs 7650 crore in setting up a petrochemical complex at its almost complete Paradip refinery in Odhisha in three to four years. The company board is set to consider the setting up of a 700000 tonne per annum polypropylene plant at an estimated cost at Rs.3150 crore.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The global macro environment continues to remain challenging. While there are concerns around Europe and performance of emerging economies, weak macroeconomic indicators in some important geographies, regulatory and policy challenges in global economic environment and continuing inflationary pressure, the US economy is displaying early signs of recovery which are promising as the largest and most influential market for the Business outsourcing (BPO) services.

The year also saw Aegis undertaking several profitability enhancement initiatives across geographies, including improvement in operational efficiencies, exiting non-core business verticals, optimization of manpower, and reduction in IT costs including reduction in bandwidth and annual maintenance costs reduction in administrative costs, facility consolidation and other initiatives.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

They are a worldwide provider of outsourcing services, comprising business process outsourcing (BPO) services such as customer lifecycle management (CLM) services, back-office services and technology services. They specialize in providing customized solutions which cover the entire spectrum of end-user experiences across business processes, technologies, shared services and analytics, and offer engagement and delivery models which focus on creating value for clients and improving their revenues and profits.

 

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

Corporations historically began outsourcing non-core processes that were deemed to be too costly to administer or pursue internally. The BPO market has transitioned away from the outsourcing of low value, transaction-intensive, back-office business processes in order to save costs. The rationale for outsourcing has changed from only savings costs to also include a focus on core operations. Corporations are now outsourcing a substantial portion of their business processes, thereby focusing on their core operations in order to develop flexibility and increase shareholder returns.

 

The total BPO market that Aegis caters to is a $167.8 billion market that is expected to grow at a 5.7% CAGR to $209.4 billion by 2017. Within this market Aegis caters to the largest and highest growth segments. While Aegis operates in most segments of the BPO market, the customer care segment, which is Aegis primary revenue contributor, accounts for ~36% of the total BPO market.

 

There is significant upside in the customer care segment as the majority of customer care remains in-house today, providing the potential for rapid growth as an increasing number of corporations outsource these services. Aegis is uniquely positioned to capitalize on these opportunities because of its leadership position in the market, its highly differentiated next-generation service offerings focused on the holistic customer experience, and its right-shoring model that provides a competitive advantage. Aegis offers on-shore, near-shore and off-shore model to its customers. Where the off-shore model provides the benefit of competitive pricing, the on-shoring model allows provisioning of services in the same time zone and withculturalaffinity, thereby enhancing the quality of servicesoffered while minimizing service disruptions and reducing geo-political risks.

 

Key market trends in the BPO market

 

- Customers transformation experience with BPO:As customers continue to have a positive experience and see the benefits of outsourcing have a positive impact on their operations and balance sheet, they will increasingly outsource their processes, including some that were once considered core.

 

- Pricing model: Outcome-based solutions and gain share pricing are beginning to appear in many RFPs as customers seek to move beyond the traditional labor pricing models. Vendors are stepping up to the challenge and offering outcome-based pricing on a case-to-case basis.

 

- Global delivery model maturity: As vendors continue to leverage the availability of global talent, tax breaks offered by various countries/state governments, establish presence across the globe and so forth, customers will reap the benefits from the global flexible delivery capability and multi-shore delivery offering.

 

- Business analytics services: Customers are increasingly adopting outsourced BPO analytics capabilities that leverage their BPO service providers domain expertise, services infrastructure, and consulting capabilities coupled with business intelligence tools. These services provide value to customers by empowering them with appropriate business levers to address the day-to-day tactical decision-making process as well as plan their long-term strategy

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

During the next financial year (FY 2013-14), Aegis is targeting an accelerated growth in margins on the back of margin improvement initiatives taken in FY 2012-13 and EBITDA with a focus on enhanced performance, maintaining cost leadership and an increased focus on free cash flows.
