Please refer to important disclosures at the end of this report
1
Incorporated in 1992, Newgen Software Technologies Limited (NSTL) is a
New
Delhi based IT company and
a global provider of Business Process Management
(BPM), Enterprise Content Management (ECM), Customer Communication
Management (CCM), Document Management System (DMS), Workflow and
Process Automation. NSTL has 450+ active customers, with clients spread over
60
countries. The company sells its products to banks, insurance firms, BPOs and
healthcare organizations. It has offices in the US, Canada, the United Kingdom,
Singapore, and Dubai.
Positives: (a) Diversified business across several verticals including
Banking,
Government/PSUs, BPO/IT, Insurance and Healthcare (b)
Diversified revenue
streams from multiple geographies with low customer concentration (c)
Recurring
and non-recurring repeat revenues from long standing customer relationships
(d)
Focused on driving innovation through in-house R&D.
Investment concerns: (a) NSTL was able to report only single digit bottom-
line
CAGR of ~8% despite a top-line CAGR ~20% over FY13-17, due to lack of
stability in operating margins (b) During 1HFY18, the company
has reported very
low margin and profitability (c) working capital days are very high
Outlook & Valuation: In terms of valuations, the pre-
issue P/E works out to 274x its
1HFY2018 annualized earnings (at the upper end of the issue price band), which is
higher compared to its peers like Intellect Design Arena (trading at PE 143x -
1HFY2018 annualized earnings).
Further last four years historical financial records
and 1HFY18 doesn’t provides confidence.
Hence, we recommend Neutral rating
on the issue.
