Infosys reported Q3 FY25 revenue growth of 1.7% QoQ and 6.1% YoY in constant currency, with operating margin at 21.3% and free cash flow at an all-time high of $1.26 billion. Large deal TCV was $2.5 billion, with net new increasing to 60% from 40% last quarter. Growth was driven by improving discretionary spending in US financial services and retail, and European financial services. The company raised its FY25 revenue guidance to 4.5%-5% CC, while maintaining margin guidance of 20%-22%. Headcount grew by over 5,000 sequentially. Management highlighted strong pipeline and pricing improvements. Risks include continued softness in European automotive and high-tech/telecom, and potential margin headwinds from wage hikes in Q4 and Q1.
इन्फोसिस ने तीसरी तिमाही में कमाई में 1.7% की बढ़ोतरी दर्ज की, जो पिछली तिमाही से ज्यादा है। पिछले साल की तुलना में यह 6.1% बढ़ी। कंपनी का मुनाफा 21.3% रहा और उसके पास सबसे ज्यादा नकदी ($1.26 बिलियन) आई। बड़े सौदों का मूल्य 2.5 बिलियन डॉलर रहा, जिसमें नए सौदों का हिस्सा 40% से बढ़कर 60% हो गया। अमेरिका और यूरोप में बैंकिंग और रिटेल सेक्टर में खर्च बढ़ने से कंपनी को फायदा हुआ। अब कंपनी ने पूरे साल की कमाई वृद्धि का अनुमान 4.5%-5% तक बढ़ा दिया है। कर्मचारियों की संख्या 5,000 से ज्यादा बढ़ी। हालांकि, यूरोप में ऑटो और टेक सेक्टर में कमजोरी और वेतन बढ़ोतरी से मुनाफे पर दबाव पड़ सकता है।

NEW RISK
Furloughs and seasonal weakness in Q4

RISK GONE
Discretionary spend recovery limited to financial services
Outside financial services, discretionary spending remains constrained, with retail, high-tech, and telecom still focused on cost takeouts, delaying broader demand recovery.

RISK GONE
Large deal TCV lumpiness and competitive pressure
Large deal TCV fell sharply to $2.4B from $4.1B QoQ, and while management cites lumpiness, the decline raises questions about deal conversion and competitive intensity.
