 HISTORY

Established in 1981, Infosys is a NASDAQ listed global consulting and IT services company
with more than 105,000 employees. From a capital of US$ 250, we have grown to become a
US$ 4 billion company with a market capitalization of approximately US$ 27 billion. In our
journey of over 28 years, we have catalyzed some of the major changes that have led to
India's emergence as the global destination for software services talent. We pioneered the
Global Delivery Model and became the first IT Company from India to be listed on
NASDAQ. Our employee stock options program created some of India's first salaried
millionaires.

Infosys Technologies Limited is a leader in software development and was co founded by

N.R. Narayana Murthy and a group of seven IT professionals in the year 1981 with an
investment of $1000. He emerged as the company's chairman and CEO and is regarded as a
great manager because of his numerical abilities and Western style of management. It has
created several firsts in Indian industry like being the first Indian company to be listed on
NASDAQ in 1999 and the first to provide employee stock options plan (ESOP).

The company opened its first international office in USA in 1987. It became a public limited
company in 1992 and offered its IPO in three of the nine Indian exchanges in 1993. It
received its ISO 2001 certification in 1993 and opened other development centers in India in
1995.

By 1995 the firm was worth $200 million, had 900 employees and annual revenue of $20
million. It opened its first European office in United Kingdom in 1996. Infosys established its
headquarters in Bangalore as there the workforces were not required to be unionized, benefits
to the workforce were relatively a minor cost, and there was a huge potential for profit.

The late 1990s was a time for exponential growth and the main reason for this was its
offshore software development model. By 2000 its market capitalization was more than $20
billion.
In 2003 it established subsidiaries in China and Australia. In 2004 it crossed $1 billion in
revenue. In 2006 its revenue crossed $2 billion and it completed 25 years.

 FUTURE STEPS

1. More keen on large deals. The margin dilution from large deals has been a point of concern
in the past at Infosys. However, while the initial margin profile can be extremely wavy, it is
possible to improve margins later in the life of the contract through reduced G&A overheads.
Infosys, in its recent analyst meet, mentioned that a dedicated team was now working on
large deals. We expect greater focus ahead in this area.

2. Increased focus on solution based offerings in both IT services and BPO. Infosys has
developed ~50 solution based offerings in the IT services space and believes that some of
these can help break the linearity between revenue and manpower growth in the business. In
BPO as well, its first platform based BPO offering is likely to be launched soon.

3. Willingness to explore new deal structures. The market was surprised when Infosys paid an
upfront $28m for the $250m/7-year Phillips BPO deal. While TCS had made such a payment
in the case of Pearl BPO earlier, Infosys willingness to do so was certainly a shift from the
past.
Company Strategy for future

Increase businesses from existing and new clients

Expand geographically

Continue to develop deep industry knowledge

Enhance brand visibility

Pursue alliance and strategic acquisitions

Continue to invest in infrastructure and employees

Infosys's hiring plans for the year (2016):

Most of the companies rapidly cutting their losses by employing massive retrenchment drive,
firing thousands of employees or offering them early separation schemes. However, despite
the massive economic turmoil across the globe, there are still some companies that are
looking to hire skilled candidates. One of these companies is Infosys. The company intends to
stick to its plan of hiring 25,000 people this fiscal year.

Infosys plans acquisitions in Brazil and Mexico (JUNE 16, 2016)

Infosys is trying to acquire a few companies in Mexico and Brazil to expand its delivery
capabilities. The company's first centre will be operational in Brazil in next three to four
months. Infosys has currently employed about 250 people in Mexico and hence feels the need
to have local facility to attract local business. "We are looking for some very targeted
acquisition with specific criteria," said Dheeshjith V G, Head, New Markets and services,
INFOSYS
Infosys had started focusing on Mexican market in last six to seven months.
According to Dheeshjith there has been increase in the business from local clients and some
companies are looking to outsource large deals. Around 20-25 percent of the total business in
Infosys' Mexico subsidiary comes from multinational companies that have operations in
Mexico while the rest of the business comes from clients in North America. That is the reason
why Infosys is stressing on local deals to attract local customers.

Interpretation:

This chart shows that there is a continuous increase in the net current assets except year 2012
as in that year there is a huge decrease in net current assets of the company as comparative to
the base year 2013. The assets of a business that can be applied to its operation is called net
current assets. As the chart shows the increase in net current assets of the company it is good
for the company as company is having the money to carry its operations. But year 2012
shows huge decrease thus the position of company is not satisfactory in year 2012 as it
doesnt have the enough sources to run its operations.

not. Thus increasing current asset indicates the corporate poor inventory management and
inability to recover its due

NASDAQ-listed Infosys (INFY.O) will provide services like

application development, management and maintenance of railway

operations of Canadian Pacific, which operates a 13,500-mile (21,700-

kilometre) transcontinental railway, a company statement said

Infosys Technologies Ltd. (INFY.BO) signed a $250 million

outsourcing contract with Royal Philips Electronics (PHG.AS:

Quote, Profile, Research) on Wednesday and bought three of the

Dutch firm's back-office centers to extend its presence in Europe.

 ANALYSIS

Key challenges faced by Infosys are:

Rise in Wage levels on Indian IT workers.

Infy can overcome this risk by growing up the value chain so that it can afford to

increase its billing rates and still add value to its customers .Second thing it can do

is to move their operations to second level cities in India that have low cost of

living and where wage pressure is less. One of the good steps Infy has taken to

this regard was by opening its Bhubaneswar center. Its cost of living is way less

than that of Bangalore. Another good example is Gandhinagar where a Patni

computer was one of the first big IT companies to open its office.

Change in exchange rates.

Infy should grow its client base in India and China where the impact of foreign

exchange is negligent. TCS is a good example with this regard. Its 2006 revenues

had 12.5% revenues generated from India. This is around $300 mn. With the

present Indian IT market valued at $5bn (obtained from TCS's 2006 annual report)

and expected to grow at 11%, Infy has scope of getting a good market share.
 Rise in Infrastructure costs.

Infy's 2006 capital expenses was $246mn compared to that of $185mn in 2005. This

is an increase of over 30%. In order to continue this pace the company needs to invest

a large amount of capital in building new facilities. With recent surge in real estate

prices in India, Infy would face challenges in controlling its capital expenditures

towards expanding its facilities

Inability to acquire foreign companies.

The present Reserve Bank of India guidelines state that in ceratin cases Indian

companies have to take the central bank's permission to acquire a foreign company.

This increases the lead time required to acquire a company.

Backlash towards outsourcing in foreign countries

One way is to employ local talent. Another way can be employing virtual classroom

techniques by which a person sitting in India can get US experience that he would

otherwise get by being physically present in USA. Multinational companies like

Accenture are doing a great job in this front and are not so much dependent on wok

visas as the Indian companies like Infy.

 Present Tax benefits are limited till 2016.

Most Indian IT companies are enjoying a tax holiday which exempts them from taxes

on exports performed from designated export promotion zones. This helps Indian IT

companies to reduce their tax rate .But this benefit is only applicable till fiscal 2009.

After that the Indian IT companies would be taxed the same way as other Indian

companies

WEAKNESSES

Revenues and expenses are difficult to predict and can vary significantly from period to

period, which could cause share Price to decline 26 May not be able to sustain our previous

profit margins or levels of profitability. The economic environment, pricing pressure and

rising wages in India and overseas could negatively impact revenues and operating results.

Revenues are highly dependent on clients primarily located in the United States and Europe,

as well as on clients concentrated in certain industries. Economic slowdowns or factors that

affect the economic health of the United States, Europe or these industries may affect our

business. Any inability to manage growth could disrupt our business and reduce our

profitability may face difficulties in providing end-to-end business solutions for our clients,

which could lead to clients discontinuing their work. Revenues are highly dependent upon a

small number of clients, and the loss of any one of our major clients could significantly

impact the business

Failure to complete fixed-price, fixed-time frame contracts within budget and on time may

negatively affect our profitability client contracts can typically be terminated without cause

and with little or no notice or penalty, which could negatively impact our revenues and

profitability

subsequent engagements

OPPORTUNITIES

Huge untapped potential for in the global market as IT will become the need of almost every

industry

The IT industry can be the reason for India being a global leader of tomorrow

THREATS

Legislation in certain of the countries, in which Infosys operates, including the United

States and the United Kingdom, may restrict companies in those countries from outsourcing

work overseas

Intense competition in the market for technology services could affect cost advantages, which

could reduce the share of business from clients and decrease the companys revenues

Our client contracts are often conditioned upon our performance, which, if unsatisfactory,

could result in less revenue than previously anticipated

Some of our long-term client contracts contain benchmarking provisions which, if triggered,

could result in lower future revenues and profitability under the contract.
 GOALS

offshore delivery model. Conceptually, they tried to leverage globalization for customized

software development - producing where it is most cost-effective, and selling where it is most

profitable, all without being constrained by national boundaries. Infosys believed that the

key to success is to ensure that it executes our engagements well every time. We have based

our whole operation on a foundation of strong value systems. We were careful never to

compromise on that despite many challenges.
