Mindtree's scrip sees fall after Q2FY17 guidance

Mindtree’s management is expecting Q2FY17 revenue to be lower than the previous quarter. The decline is expected due to cross-currency movements, project cancellations and slower ramp-ups of a few large clients across different verticals and continued weakness in its UK-based subsidiary, Bluefin.

Mindtree’s management is expecting Q2FY17 revenue to be lower than the previous quarter. The decline is expected due to cross-currency movements, project cancellations and slower ramp-ups of a few large clients across different verticals and continued weakness in its UK-based subsidiary, Bluefin.

Mindtree’s Bluefin business is expected to report an EBITDA loss for upcoming quarter. The company has implemented a range of operational efficiency improvements and cost control measures. The uncertainties in the Bluefin business are likely to continue for a few more months given the volatile macroeconomic environment in Europe.

Mindtree’s slower revenue momentum in H1FY17 will delay the aspiration to grow EBITDA margins over FY16. The cost saving measures and other related initiatives will help the company deliver a higher margin in H2FY17 over H1FY17. Meanwhile, it continues to expect annual revenue growth to be higher than the NASSCOM industry average.

The share price of Mindtree has dropped by 7.8 per cent on bourses in early trades; and is trading at Rs 512.05 on an intraday basis.
