Risks:

  • Like other IT companies, the business is dependent on key clients across the world
  • Revenue concentration in one region ( North America)
  • Largest client alone contributed 15% of firm’s revenue in FY16. 
  • Like other major IT players, L&T Infotech is exposed significantly to segments such as banking and financial services, insurance and energy. Some of these segments are not performing well of late 

Valuation as compared to its peers:

On a consolidated basis the company posted revenue of Rs 6143 crore in FY16 and a net profit of Rs 922 crore. 
 
In terms of revenues the company is the sixth largest in revenue placed after Tech Mahindra but above Oracle Financial. However, in operating parameter L&T Infotech has superior performance. Its operating margin stands at around 22% while that of Tech Mahindra is 18.3%.
 
The issue price of Rs 705 discounts its FY16 earnings of Rs 56.13 (EPS) by 12.56  times (P/E Ratio).
 
The top five player’s trade between a price to earning band of 20 and 13.7 with the lowest being that of HCL Tech which is facing perception issues in the market. Based on the price the issue seems to be attractively priced leaving room for listing gains.
