- EBITDA margin expanded by 343 basis points to 19.7%, with a target of reaching ~20% for the full year.
- Strong market validation of AI capabilities, with 60% of new deals being AI-led, including wins like SBI Life Insurance and an American pet care provider.
- Integration of T&Q Tech into Lumina Datamatics is complete, strengthening the company's position as a top-three global digital content outsourcing firm.
- Healthy balance sheet with net cash and investments of Rs 710.2 crore, supporting potential M&A and growth initiatives.
- Digital Experiences segment revenue declined 5.3% year-on-year, indicating weakness in that business area.
- Digital Technologies segment showed muted growth of 6.1% year-on-year, with EBIT margin at 8.9% due to heavy R&D investments.
- Management maintains a cautious high single-digit revenue growth guidance for FY27, citing market softness from geopolitical uncertainties.
- AI projects are becoming smaller in tenure (3-9 months) compared to traditional long-term annuities, potentially impacting revenue stability.
- Risks include customers choosing to automate in-house or set up captives (GCCs), which could reduce outsourcing budgets.
