BUSINESS OVERVIEW

In the face of the volatility and uncertainty in the global macro-economic environment during these past 12-18 months, global outsourcing industry had to reinvent and recalibrate several business assumptions around growth targets, profitability and currency exchange variables, target industry verticals, service offerings and pricing models in order to preserve the current book of business and establish the 'new normal' for managing client and investor expectations.

Despite a plethora of moving variables and challenges afflicting providers of all scale and track-record, your company has acquitted itself remarkably well to realign the services portfolio in a seamless and phased manner in order to establish a sustainable, profitable and predictable stream of revenue and operational profits.

In the prior years, your company was predominantly focusing on traditional offerings around IT Services led by Hardware Sales & Maintenance and Systems Integration. The IT Hardware/Systems Integration industry has traditionally been characterized by strong correlation between business uptick through technology adoption and growing economic indicators across the corporate ecosystem. This business segment was most affected on the profitability front as contracting deal flow and downbeat volumes resulted in significant margin erosion across the landscape. Consequently, our business strategy was redefined with emphasis towards 'pure play services' as we took definitive steps to transition out of the hardware-driven business model into a solutions-driven product & services revenue model, thereby negatively impacting our top line but significantly improving the quality of revenues and profitability thereof. Our business strategy has been crafted now to realign our service offerings more closely to the emerging 'white space' opportunities in the market segments we have been operating, thereby resulting in the creation and development of niche practice lines in Enterprise Risk Analytics, Telecom CoE and Media CoE, to name a few. These initiatives have catalyzed significant momentum in terms of capabilities build-out, new client acquisitions, talent retention, IP asset creation, geographical footprint expansion, business model innovation and most importantly, customer delight and annuity revenue buildup that your company is very proud of.

During the year, our consolidated gross profit is Rs. 450.08 Lacs (3.68%) as against Rs. 700.24 Lacs (5.45%) in the previous year. The general and administrative expenses were 6.48% and 5.93% of our revenues during the current year and previous year. We along with our subsidiaries have added 14 new clients this year. Your Company continues to primarily engage in the business of providing IT Services to its customers in the Middle East, Singapore, and India and has recently expanded into African and Far East market.

DIVIDEND

The company has rewarded its shareholders in the past by paying dividends. However this year we intend to retain any future earnings to fund ongoing operations and finance the growth and development of our business. Any future decision to declare or pay dividends will be dependent upon our financial conditions, results of operations, capital requirements, acquisitions and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

The Directors have recommended that no dividend be paid for the year under review.

GEOGRAPHICAL REACH

Your Company has established a strong client footprint across all the major emerging market segments in Far East, Middle East, North Africa and USA, with offices in six countries. All major support functions for Sales/Marketing & Service Delivery are consolidated through the hub offices in each geography and an optimal offshore-onsite mix enables client centricity alongside cost optimization on the SG&A front, given the high sensitivity to the prevailing economic environment.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

At the outset while there is a decline in revenues, we would like to present the business model transformation initiated by your company for the year under review.

Your company was predominantly focusing on traditional area of business like IT Services, Hardware Sales & Maintenance and Systems Integration. The IT Hardware industry is characterized by sales that tend to rise and fall with economic cycles. In line with our stated strategy to shift emphasis towards the services, we took defnitive steps to transition out of the hardware-driven sales platform into a solutions-driven product & services revenue model, thereby reducing our top line but significantly improving the quality of revenues and profitability thereof. The overarching theme of our growth strategy has been built around specialized high margin services and hence we executed a strategic shift from a hardware-only revenue stream to hardware-enabled services offerings to drive our business in those select segments.

The highly commoditized, low margin hardware oriented business in a static economic landscape across 2009 & 2010 tended to drag our services mix thus impacting our ability to achieve our overall profitability goals. This combined with the long gestation period and excessive cash burn associated with some of the IP development initiatives necessitated a course correction on re-aligning our portfolio of offerings which resulted in the divestment of our 51% stake in Precision Group. Post this divestment, though our top line declined we have been able to put together a strategic framework to scale the revenues back through an integrated solutions approach powered by high-end enterprise sales model.

The enterprise sales model entails turnkey implementation services around storage, networking, security and applications support – all resulting in the respective product sales, thus validating a ‘solutions’ led positioning of the company rather than a provider of hardware and networking equipments of HP/Cisco as was the case before divestment.

The decision to divest our stake in Precision Group and invest into organic business lines refects our strategic roadmap drawn to achieve the ‘services-only’ DNA of Info-Drive for the future.

DIVIDEND

The company has rewarded its shareholders last three years consecutively by paying dividend. However this year we intend to retain any future earnings to fund ongoing operations and finance the growth and development of our business. Any future decision to declare or pay dividends will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, acquisitions and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

The directors have recommended that no dividend be paid for the year under review.

GEOGRAPHICAL REACH

Your Company has customer base across the globe. The Company has physical presence through its offices in 6 countries. In-line with the current economic scenario, your Company has consolidated its operations to support its global marketing, sales and delivery operations to improve operational effciency. Info-Drive has consolidated its operations across its geography and every subsidiary enables us to better support the efforts of marketing team and to provide onsite delivery support.

BRANCH
