Update: GFT solutions business grew at 23% in Q1

The strong growth momentum continued into Q1, with the core GFT solutions business growing 23% organically, compared with 24% y-o-y in FY14. GFT is seeing ongoing strong demand from its core customer base driven by rising compliance requirements and digitisation in banking. While management has maintained its guidance, we see an increasing likelihood of upgrades as the year progresses. Hence, we have nudged up our FY16 and FY17 revenues while our EPS forecasts rise in each year from FY15-17. In our view, the valuation continues to look attractive at c 17x our FY16e earnings if management can sustain the growth momentum.
