Investment Rationale
The brokerage believes investors could bid at Rs450-480 band (16x to 17x CY22E EPS) and this could be fair price in its view. Hexaware trades at 30% discount to LT Infotech currently which appears reasonable (LT Infotech has larger scale and superior margins (revenue at USD1600mn and headcount at 31,500 and EBIT margin of 16.9%). Hexaware stock 5-year average one year forward P/E multiple is 16x and 3-year average one year forward P/E multiple is 17x. Assuming bid price of Rs480/sh, we are valuing Hexaware at 19.3x one year forward EPS. While street might argue that P/E multiples across IT pack have expanded, it notes Baring is buying a large portion and hence would require some room for upside. Hence, they would also look for room for safety.
