MOSL: TEAMLEASE (Buy)-Expect a strong business recovery in FY22

TEAMLEASE: Expect a strong business recovery in FY22

(TEAM IN, Mkt Cap USD0.9b, CMP INR3757, TP INR4200, 12% Upside, Buy)

 

  • TEAM’s operating performance was a beat on our estimates, with total revenue increasing 2.7% QoQ. Revenue growth was led by 17%/22% QoQ growth in Specialized Staffing/Other HR Services, offset by a 1% growth in the General Staffing business. Margin in 1QFY22 inched up by 20bp QoQ to 2.1%, led by strong growth in the Specialized Staffing business and partial reversal in provisions in Other HR Services. It reported an adjusted PAT of INR243m, implying a PAT margin (in line) of 1.8%.
  • The management remains optimistic about a recovery in long term growth. We expect an impact on revenue growth in FY22, due to lockdowns induced by the second COVID wave, to be much more manageable than FY21. As a result, discount reversals, new logo additions, and strong growth in certain key industries should aid 25% revenue growth in the General Staffing business.
  • Increased manpower demand and higher margin replacements in the IT Staffing business should result in strong growth in Specialized Staffing in FY22. An expected reversal in provisions in Other HR Services and increasing proportion of Specialized Staffing should aid a 40bp margin improvement by FY23E from FY21 levels. This, in turn, should result in an adjusted PAT CAGR of 42% over FY21-23E.
  • Over the medium term, as both the Central and state governments look forward to liberalize and formalize the labor market, TEAM should be among the biggest direct beneficiaries.
  • We have increased our estimates by 7%/4% to factor in higher margin for FY22E/FY23E. Our TP of INR4,200/share implies 42x FY23E EPS. We reiterate our Buy rating.
