Summary of Tech Mahindra's latest earnings call, featuring management's outlook on business performance, financial results, and analyst Q&A sessions that highlight key strategic initiatives and market challenges.
Last updated: Jan 25
Management Outlook:
Tech Mahindra's management expressed cautious optimism for FY25, anticipating gradual improvement in demand compared to FY24, driven by stabilized enterprise spending and GenAI adoption. They aim to achieve 15% EBIT margin by FY27 through cost optimization (Project Fortius), pyramid restructuring, pricing discipline, and automation. While telecom remains a key vertical (with growing cost consolidation deals), BFSI, Healthcare, and Life Sciences are emerging growth drivers.
Key Highlights:
2025 Expectations: Management expects incremental demand recovery, AI-led transformation deals, and margin resilience despite wage pressures. The focus remains on scaling must-win accounts and large deals while balancing portfolio risk.

1. Question: "We have seen a steady buildup of net new deal momentum over the last couple of quarters. This, combined with the change in strategy, does that give you confidence of meeting industry average growth in the near term on a sequential basis maybe, given that Y-o-Y numbers may take some time to reflect?"
Answer: Mohit Joshi highlighted steady improvement in deal wins (from $381M to $745M in recent quarters) and expressed confidence in catching up to peer-average growth by FY27. He noted early transformation progress but emphasized it is too soon to declare victory.
2. Question: "Your deal wins reflect and also one of your larger competitors called it out that there is a renewed interest among global telcos in upping discretionary spends. So, finally, can we call out an inflection point in the comms vertical?"
Answer: While comms vertical momentum varied regionally (APAC improving, Europe stable, North America still challenged), Joshi noted limited scope for further deterioration and potential for gradual improvement, avoiding declaring an inflection point.
3. Question: "In terms of the broader demand outlook, compared to where we were 3 to 6 months ago, any characterization for the coming quarter?"
Answer: Joshi described 2023 as the weakest year, 2024 as an incremental improvement, and 2025 likely better than 2024, though recovery remains gradual, not V-shaped.
4. Question: "Do you have GenAI-related offerings or capabilities that are differentiated and actively impacting the market?"
Answer: TechM emphasized sovereign LLM development, domain-specific SLMs/TinyLMs, Agentic AI (AgentX), and Neuro-symbolic AI research. Partnerships (NVIDIA, AWS) and vertical-specific AI solutions (manufacturing, healthcare) were highlighted as key differentiators.
5. Question: "Can you discuss underlying transformation progress not visible externally, and remaining opportunities to achieve FY27 targets?"
Answer: Leadership alignment, must-win client growth (40+ new accounts), and large-deal momentum ($745M in Q3) were cited. Focus on portfolio rebalancing, service-line investments, and operational efficiency (DSO improvements, delivery automation) remain critical.
6. Question: "Three of the six large deals discussed are from telecom. Is this an enduring trend?"
Answer: Telecom deal activity is growing but remains cost/consolidation-focused, not discretionary. TechM stressed retaining telecom leadership while expanding other verticals (BFSI, healthcare) for a balanced portfolio.
7. Question: "Other verticals show traction. What is driving growth here?"
Answer: Growth in "other" verticals (e.g., global public sector) stemmed from project ramps. TechM emphasized structured vertical focus, solutions, and partnerships (e.g., Temenos in BFSI) to sustain diversification.
8. Question: "Will forex losses persist if INR rates prevail?"
Answer: CFO Rohit Anand acknowledged cross-currency headwinds and hedging impacts, confirming forex volatility could affect reported numbers if INR depreciates further.
9. Question: "Margin improved 300bps; are you ahead of the $250M savings target? Does this improve FY27 visibility?"
Answer: Savings and investments are on track, with normalized metrics showing steady progress. Anand reaffirmed FY15% EBIT target, citing productivity, pricing, and automation as ongoing levers.
10. Question: "How sustainable are the $745M deal wins, and can they grow further?"
Answer: Deal wins reflect broad vertical/geographic diversification beyond telecom. Joshi emphasized funnel expansion, disciplined contracting, and selective deal choices but noted inherent lumpiness in large deals.
11. Question: "Weakness in Pininfarina/auto: Is European auto stress spilling over to other regions?"
Answer: Most auto exposure (ex-Pininfarina) is in resilient US/Japanese markets. TechM's engineering focus and geographic diversification mitigate Europe-specific risks, though prolonged downturns remain a concern.
