Mphasis: With continued momentum in the direct business (+9% QoQ CC) and healthy deal wins (eight consecutive quarter of TCV> USD 200mn), we reiterate Mphasis (MPHL) as our preferred pick in the mid-tier IT space. MPHL’s growth is expected to be driven by (1) expansion in the direct business (organic +6.3% QoQ); (2) strong traction in BFSI vertical (increase in tech spend by global banks); (3) continued growth in the top-10 accounts (+9.5% QoQ); (4) increasing share/size of large deal wins (signed four large deal wins in Q3 with one at USD 92mn in healthcare); (5) Blink acquisition, which is aiding new deal wins (two synergy deal wins); and (6) better growth alignment with hyperscalers.
