Satyam Computer Services Intrinsic Valuation – post Acquisition Check out more on my blog: fundamentalvaluation.blogspot.com Author: Puneet Malik Date: Sep 01, 2009

Executive Summary Satyam investors have witnessed a massive wipe-out of their wealth, with its market cap nose-diving by 501% since Dec, 08. Typical of any financial scam ridden company, Satyam stock got punished once its Chairman Mr. Ramalinga Raju jolted the market with the news of billion dollars financial irregularities. The acquisition by Tech-Mahindra infused confidence among investors community, reflected in the 300% stock appreciation since approval by India Law Board. The valuation report conducted the fundamental analysis of Satyam and valued it at Rs. 214.49, with 75% of its value coming from terminal phase.

2 With increased government intervention, Satyam managed to sell 41% stake to Tech-Mahindra in Apr, 2009. In the previous valuation(pre-acquisition), controlling for all the risk factors facing company at the time, Satyam was valued at Rs. 102 in May,09 (the stock was trading at 45 at the time). There have been several developments post-acquisition such as release of Q3 09 audited financial results, addition of new clients and disclosure of consolidated financial liabilities/assets of Satyam. This, in addition to management takeover, has improved the investor confidence level, reflected in the stock price, trading at Rs. 123.20. The valuation report will re-evaluate Satyam’s enterprise value, taking into account all new developments since Tech-Mahindra acquisition.

Valuation model The 2 most popular valuation models are Relative valuation and Fundamental analysis (a.k.a Discounted Cash flow model). Without getting into much detail, relative valuation does a comparative valuation of similar companies based on various metrics (P/E,PEG,EV/Sales). This approach works best if the companies are relatively similar from growth, margins, cost of capital and industry perspective. For example, one can compare TCS and Wipro using P/E as both of them operate in IT outsourcing industry and get bulk of their revenue from outside India. Although Satyam operates in the similar industry as HCL, the idiosyncratic risks facing company today creates uncertainty about its future growth prospects. To use relative valuation, one must control for all such risk factors before slapping a multiple on Satyam. Not impossible, but it is fairly challenging to control for such risk factors in determining P/E multiple of Satyam. The Fundamental analysis is a more comprehensive and intuitive model to value firms like Satyam, facing unsystematic risk such as higher cost of capital, uncertain growth prospects and distorted financial statements. The research paper uses a 2 stage FCFF (free cash flow to firm) model, appropriate for growth oriented companies. Satyam is a growth oriented company, operating in IT outsourcing industry2. The 2 stage model categorizes company’s growth into – High growth phase, followed by low growth phase leading to a terminal/stable growth. 3 Years Type of growth

Global IT outsourcing industry IT outsourcing industry can be categorized into – 1. Application Outsourcing (AO) This includes outsourcing application development/support to countries, possessing competitive advantage of skilled technical labor. Gartner forecasts the AO worldwide market to grow from $70.9 billion in 2008 to $97.9 billion in 2012, registering a four-year CAGR of 8.9%. 2. Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) This category includes contracting out company’s internal processes – Back office operations like Finance/Human Resources and Front office systems like CRM. BPO is the fastest growing segment in the IT outsourcing industry, expected to grow at a CAGR of 9% in the next 5 years (2008 – 2012). According to Gartner, the worldwide BPO market is expected to grow from $171 billion in 2008 to $239 billion in 2012. 3. IT management This business segment includes outsourcing of company’s Information Technology Network management and other infrastructure management services. Gartner forecasts the worldwide IT Management segment to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% from $202 billion in 2007 to $292 billion in 2012.

4 IT outsourcing revenue grew by 21% to $11.8 billion, resulting in India’s share of worldwide outsourcing market to be 12.6%.4 In 2008, Indian AO export grew by 14.7% to $26.5 billion and BPO related exports registered a 16.5% gain moving to $12.7 billion5. Engineering and Product services exports increased to $7.1 billion.

Satyam Intrinsic valuation Although several financial projections go into DCF valuation, the paper highlights the salient parameters that have bigger impact on Satyam’s valuation. The research paper will reference the most recently released audited Q3, 09 estimates of TechSatyam that presents a much clearer picture of its financial situation. Revenue projection As discussed above, India’s share of worldwide IT outsourcing industry in 2008 was 12.6% - Application outsourcing share of global market is 46.60%6 and BPO share of global market is 9.35 %7. Since India emerged as the outsourcing leader in early 2000s, several other countries like China have emerged as the competing destination for outsourcing buyers. But in a 2008 Gartner study on Outsourcing, analyzing 42 countries on criterion like cost, education, labor, infrastructure and government support, India emerged as the most preferred destination for outsourcing. The US financial crisis has increased the cost sensitivity of large buyers, putting India at a cost advantage compared to western BPO providers. India, among other outsourcing destinations, enjoys several advantages such as language skills, excellent government support and most importantly, moving up of IT vendors in supply chain, providing higher value added services. BPO being the fastest growing segment in IT outsourcing, Gartner forecasts the Indian share of global BPO market to double by 2010. Indian Application outsourcing (AO) exports already controls a healthy market share of 38.15%. But the spiraling labor costs, higher cost of living, increased attrition and margin pressures due to financial crisis will pose challenges to Indian IT market 4

5 players in strengthening its market share. On the positive note, the domestic IT market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 18.3% through 2012 to $22.87 billion, propelling the growth for Indian IT service providers. Indian share of global AO market is estimated to increase to at least 55% in next 4 years. With Indian BPO market share growing to 18.7% and AO to 55% through 2012, the total Indian IT revenue in 2012 will be (.187*2398+.55*97.99)=98.53. This results in a 4 year CAGR of (98.53/56.310)^.25 -1=15%. NASSCOM estimates 2009-2010 IT revenues to grow in the range of 4-7%.

In the terminal year, Satyam will exhibit characteristics of a mature and stable growth company, growing at a rate not greater than Indian risk free rate11 of 3%. Sensitivity analysis in the appendix addresses the valuation impact for different growth rates. EBIT margins Lacking any other credible financials, recently disclosed audited Q3 2009 results are used to estimate next 4 years EBIT margins. Q3 2009 income statement has high legal expenses (attributed to lawsuits) and high bench costs (economy downturn and financial irregularity) depressing the Dec Q3 EBIT margins to 12.99%. In Q3, legal expenses constituted Rs 108 cr/4.7% of Q3 revenue (historically legal expenses were 2.23% of revenue) and bench costs were Rs. 120 cr. At the time of this valuation, global economy is seen to be ramping up and it is estimated that bench costs should decrease with the recovery in sight. Additionally, it is believed that legal costs will continue to depress company’s margins for next 2 years until the legal liabilities are settled. The valuation analysis adjusts Q3 EBIT margins for high bench costs (keeping the high legal expenses), estimating the next 2 year EBIT margin of 18.2212%.

With increased competition and maturing of IT outsourcing industry, margins are expected to get depressed through terminal year (2017). The terminal/stable growth EBIT margin is the profit margin of a larger/mature company in a stable growth mode. In a stable growth mode, Satyam is expected to deliver EBIT margin of 19.61%, average margin of IT service industry.

7 The Capital requirement in stable growth period is determined by the Return on Invested capital and the amount of growth16. The retention ratio (net of Capex) is estimated to be 23% in stable growth. See section below on Excess Return in stable growth phase. Cost of capital Cost of capital is the weighted average of 2 components – 1. After tax cost of debt 2. Cost of Equity Cost of Debt Satyam’s annualized cost of debt as of Q3, 09 (ending in Dec) was 16%. The company took a loan of Rs.600cr to meet its working capital needs, carrying a high rate of 13.5%. Cost of debt is determined by the risk free rate + risk premium attributed to risk default. The risk default premium for Indian companies generally has 2 components – a. Country default – Unlike USA, India has a default rating of Ba2 according to Moody’s. This carry a ~400bp spread over risk free rate. b. Company default – This is company specific and identifies company’s ability to service its debt, generally determined by Interest ratio coverage. Indian IT sector receives bulk of its revenue (95% on an average) from outside India (USA/Europe), nullifying the country risk premium. Company default is the only risk component, contributing to spread on top of Indian risk free rate. As of Q3-09, Satyam has an outstanding liability of Rs.5817.96cr17 and the interest coverage ratio of 7.0418, corresponding to a spread of 250bp over Indian risk free rate of 3%19. According to new management, company plans to retire Rs300cr of debt this year, carrying an interest rate of 13.5%. Once the impending lawsuit liability is settled in 2 years, company’s interest coverage ratio should improve further, lowering its after-tax cost of debt to 3.4520% through 2012 and to 2.7621% in the terminal year.

8 This is determined by company’s levered beta and the market risk premium. Although historically, market risk premium ran around 4%, financial crisis has drastically increased premium to around 7.5%. It is expected that market will continue to exact high premium for next couple of years before reverting to historical average of 4%. The paper uses top-down approach to calculate Satyam’s unlevered beta of 0.8 – average beta of SWITCH companies. As company grows and scale up, its beta also approaches 1. The valuation uses a beta of 1 in the terminal year. The cost of equity in the growth phase is 10.16%, reducing to 8.1% in the terminal year. (The contribution of country risk premium is ignored as Satyam receives bulk of its revenue from developed economies, carrying zero country risk premium)

WACC Using above costs of debt and equity, weighted average cost of capital for Satyam decreases from 9.73% in growth phase to 7.83% in the stable phase. (See Appendix for WACC calculation) Excess Return in Stable phase This is the most important component in any valuation that generates value for the company. It is the excess return over cost of capital that adds/detracts value from a company – companies generating higher excess returns will have higher valuations than others. Maintaining excess returns require company to have sustainable competitive advantage. Companies like Microsoft, maintaining a monopoly, have managed to enjoy higher excess returns for several years. There is another school of thought, like Mckinsey, which believes that the company will generate zero excess returns in stable growth – higher excess returns attracts new entrants, increasing competition and thus depressing excess returns. The sustainability of competitive advantage determines the longevity of excess returns. The bigger the competitive advantage, the longer the company enjoys excess returns. Although there have been several players in the outsourcing industry, it is believed that each player holds some competitive advantage, supported by the fact that SWITCH average ROI for the last 5 years has been 33.5022%.

22

This figure adjusts for any R&D expense, not treated as equity. Indian IT company’s average WACC is ~9%.

These high ROIs may be justified by higher switching costs of IT outsourcing buyers or by company’s competitive advantage in different verticals. (Tech Mahindra’s focus on Telecommunication niche) Matured technology companies such as Dell23 and HP24 enjoys an excess return of around 6% in their most recent fiscal results. With the maturing of IT outsourcing industry and increased competition, it is estimated that IT outsourcing companies like Satyam will continue to enjoy excess return, though of the order of ~5-6%. As discussed in cost of capital section, WACC in the stable growth is estimated to be 7.83%, resulting in ROC of 7.83+5=12.83%. The company will need to retain 23% (G=b*ROC; G=3%, ROC=12.83%) of capital in the stable growth, as part of capex.

Implied spread over Indian risk free rate based on S&P ratings= ~2.5% Credit rating = A Indian risk free rate=3% (400bp is country risk premium leading to 7% 10 Yr yield) Because Satyam gets 95% of its revenue39 from outside India (primarily developed economies), company’s risk drivers are least related to India-specific risk and hence, shouldn’t be punished by slapping a 400bp country risk premium for just operating out of India.
