2-Min Summary

✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Firstsource delivered a strong Q4 FY26, with revenue of ₹25.8B (up 19.5% YoY) and PAT of ₹2.1B (up 27.7% YoY). EBIT margin expanded 100bps YoY to 12.2%, the sixth consecutive quarter of expansion. Growth was driven by broad-based momentum across BFS (9% YoY CC) and healthcare (16% YoY CC), partially offset by softness in CMT and a delayed UK collections deal ramp. The company signed four large deals in Q4 and 17 in FY26, with the deal pipeline at an all-time high above $1B. Management guided FY27 constant currency revenue growth of 10-13% and EBIT margin of 12.25-12.75%. Key risk: AI-driven productivity could compress revenue per client if outcome-based pricing scales slower than expected.
