Bear-case history
An analyst specifically questioned how management arrived at the 3-4 month normalization timeline given that AI infrastructure demand continues to strain networking component capacity globally. Management attributed this to OEM feedback but did not provide specific data points or volume commitments.
At 85% government exposure (60% state governments, 40% PSUs), the company faces elongated payment cycles and working capital pressure. Management acknowledged this concentration risk and targets reducing state government mix, but no concrete timelines were provided for this transition.
The 11-13% FY27 EBITDA margin guidance explicitly depends on supply chain normalization within 3-4 months. If price inflation persists beyond this window, the margin guidance becomes untenable under the new escalation clause model, as higher procurement costs would directly compress margins.
When directly asked for FY27 revenue guidance, the CFO explicitly declined to provide a specific number, framing it as 'discipline rather than evasiveness.' This lack of specificity makes it difficult to validate performance against commitments.
