MindTree Consulting
Target price: Rs 510
Current price: Rs 579
Broking firm: SSKI
MindTree Consulting (MindTree), a mid-sized Information & Technolofy (IT) and Research & Development services company, has strong management bandwidth. It services marquee clients like Volvo, AIG, LSILogic, United Technologies, Symantec, Avis and Unilever. However, a high share of development services in revenues creates a project-based business profile, which lowers sales productivity, hurts utilisation and leads to poor client mining. Thus, contrary to street expectations of an expansion, the company is expected to show declining margins by 170 basis point over FY07-09 due to rupee appreciation and salary inflation. The management has cut its FY08 earnings guidance after the first quarter FY08 results, but SSKI expects further risk to consensus estimates for FY09. While the stock price has fallen 23 per cent in just one month, further downside is likely at valuations of 19.8 times estimated FY09 earnings (19.2 times for Infosys). Considering these factors, the stock is rated as underperformer with a downward price target of Rs 510 per share
