Ajay S. Bhutoria, CEO and Managing Director, Zensar Technologies, said, “In Q2FY23, we reported quarterly revenues of $155M, sequential QoQ growth of 1.6%, and quarterly YoY growth of 14.4% in constant currency. The investments made in the past few quarters have led us to win deals of $141.8M, despite challenging market conditions in some of our verticals. Our key business services, including Advanced Engineering Services (AES), Data Engineering Services, and Platform Services, have consistently expanded with new deal wins, addition of new logos, and revenue growth. Our BFSI vertical continues its growth trajectory, reporting sequential QoQ growth of 6.1% and quarterly YoY growth of 33.8% in constant currency. South Africa has performed distinctly in the past quarter, posting sequential QoQ growth of 9.1% and quarterly YoY growth of 16.4% in constant currency. Due to a sluggish macro-economic environment, we did experience softness in our Hi-Tech and Manufacturing and Consumer Services businesses.”
He further stated, “Our focus on training and skilling initiatives has enabled our teams and freshers to hone their capabilities aimed at accelerating value for our clients.”
Commenting on Q2FY23 performance, Sachin Zute, CFO, Zensar Technologies, said, “Q2FY23 was a stable quarter for the company. Margins in Q2FY23 were mainly affected due to significant wage increases across all levels to enable us to navigate effectively through the external supply side environment. Our talent pool has responded well to these increases, and we have seen moderation in attrition rates.”
He further stated, “Our revenues grew by 1.6% on a sequential QoQ basis and 14.4% on a quarterly YoY basis on constant currency terms. We had an adverse impact due to currency volatility in GBP and ZAR. The company is working on multiple initiatives toward margin improvement. Our DSO has improved to 80 days from 83 days in Q1FY23, showing improving operational efficiency. As we step into the second half of this fiscal year, we have a healthy order book of $141.8M. We will continue to maintain operational rigor focused on delivery excellence and cost optimization.”
