Emkay Global Financial has given Buy recommendation for Tata Communications with a target price of Rs. 1155 in its research report issued on Jun 15, 2022
Emkay Global Financial’s report on Tata Communications
In the analyst meet, TCOM management reiterated its strategy regarding platform transformation with a focus on product innovation, new launches, higher customer wallet share and financial fitness to accelerate topline growth. The strategy of ‘deeper with fewer’ is working well in the India Enterprise segment, which has seen market share gains. New product launches, increasing feet on the street and joint GTM with TCS should help garner share gains in overseas markets too. Although the company has achieved its financial fitness targets in the last two years and now has a healthy balance sheet and strong cash-flows, it continues to be noncommittal on the timelines for achieving double-digit revenue growth in the Data segment.
Outlook
We have cut FY23-25E EBITDA by 3-8% due to the delay in revenue recovery and lower margins (closer to management’s guided range). We cut target multiple for Data segment to 8x (Jun’24E EBITDA) from 10.5x and arrive at a revised SOTP based TP of Rs1,155.
