Accelya Solutions - Q1FY21 Company Update - ICICI Securities

Accelya reported dismal Q1FY21 (June ending) results mainly led by exposure to airline sector. Revenues fell 5.1% QoQ, 46.7% YoY to Rs. 59.2 crore mainly led by higher refund income in previous quarter. EBIT margins were at 3.4% vs. 4.5% in Q4FY20. Employee cost increased in the quarter due to restoration of salaries (compared to salary cuts in previous quarter). PAT declined 42.5% QoQ to Rs. 2.0 crore mainly led by higher tax expenses. We have introduce FY23E estimates in the current quarter.

Valuation & Outlook

The company reported a subdued Q1FY21 performance. Further, we expect its ability to reach pre-Covid levels to be further elongated by a few quarters due to fresh lockdowns announced in many countries and Covid related challenges in airline sector. As a result, we taper down our FY21E and FY22E revenue and EPS estimates. Hence, we revise our target price downwards to Rs. 1070/ share (17x FY23E EPS, 3.5x FY23E sales) and downgrade the stock from BUY to HOLD recommendation.
