Letter to the shareholder
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to begin fiscal 2006 by reporting satisfactory growth in the first quarter. We grew our consolidated Indian GAAP revenues by 36.52% over the corresponding quarter last fiscal year, while consolidated net profits from ordinary activities increased by 36.97%. In US GAAP terms, revenues grew by 42.09% over the corresponding quarter last fiscal year.
The success of our recently-concluded Sponsored Secondary ADS issue reaffirms the confidence that the world has placed in our business model. This quarter, we revised our revenue guidance to between Rs. 8,947 crore and Rs. 9,051 crore for fiscal 2006, from the original guidance of between Rs. 8,890 crore and Rs. 9,029 crore. In US GAAP terms, the revised revenue guidance is between $2.06 billion and $2.08 billion from the original guidance of between $2.04 billion and $2.07 billion, an estimated growth of 29.14% — 30.65%. Consolidated earnings per American Depositary Share are expected to be between $1.96 and $1.99.
Compared to the corresponding quarter in the prior fiscal year, we maintained our margins in Indian GAAP terms despite absorbing annual salary increases, increased visa expenditures and the adverse impact of a depreciating Euro and Pound Sterling. Offshore volumes grew at 1.2% and onsite volumes at 3.4%. Pricing remained stable. We now have 8 clients billing (on a last twelve months, or LTM basis) at more than $40 million, and 5 at over $50 million.
With the addition of 3,056 net employees, our total strength, including subsidiaries, has grown to 39,806 as of June 30, 2005. To meet growing business needs, we have enhanced infrastructure for training, education and leadership development.
Clients and analysts commended Infosys Consulting Inc., our US subsidiary, for having the right consulting business model. Clients reported that consulting projects with Infosys Consulting delivered more than the expected business value, showing that the value proposition we have created is making Infosys Consulting the benchmark of the profession.
This quarter, we added 36 new clients. Our strategy to pursue high-quality prospects that will give us large, growing revenue streams, is paying off. We started relationships with nine Global 500 companies in diverse industries such as pharmaceutical, supermarkets, equipment manufacturing, automotive, utilities, insurance and banking, both in the US and Europe.
We designed and implemented an integrated Point of Sales Replenishment (POSR) solution for an independent business unit of the world’s largest greeting card company. We are building a centralized financial and management reporting system for a leading bank in the US. Our leading-edge technology solutions will standardize processes and enable uniform data standards for a leading global agribusiness with operations in 90 countries. A market leader in commercial air-conditioners and hardware sought our expertise for Sarbanes Oxley compliance, along with other IT services.
Our China subsidiary is servicing 12 clients across North America, Asia-Pacific and China.
Finacle®, our acclaimed banking product, expanded its global footprint and is currently being used in 47 countries, including advanced markets like Australia, Singapore, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, as well as Greece and Poland.
We successfully completed the largest international equity offering from India of over a billion dollars. Our offering in Japan through the Public Offer Without Listing (POWL) has enhanced Japanese investor interest in India and opened the market for Indian companies.
The Board of Directors, at its meeting on July 12, 2005, elected Mr. David L. Boyles as an additional Director of the company with immediate effect. Prior to his retirement as Chief Operations Officer at ANZ Banking Group in December 2003, Mr. Boyles held senior leadership positions at large multinational corporations, including American Express, Downey Financial and Bank of America. Mr. Boyles will hold office up to the date of the next Annual General Meeting, when his appointment as a director will be placed for your approval.
Mr. Philip Yeo retired as a Director of the company at the Annual General Meeting held on June 11, 2005. We are grateful for his significant contributions on strategic matters and wish him the very best for the future.
As we move into the second quarter of the current fiscal year, we look forward to your support to put in place the building blocks that will make us a $2 billion company. On your behalf, we thank all Infoscions.
