DBS analyst Sachin Mittal upgraded the rating on WNS (WNS – Research Report) to a Buy on January 19, setting a price target of $80.00.
Sachin Mittal’s Buy rating for WNS Holdings Ltd. (WNS) is grounded in a combination of the company’s strong market presence as a significant offshore business process management provider and its diversified service portfolio, which is deemed more defensive compared to the broader IT industry. WNS distinguishes itself with a global footprint, operating 64 delivery centers across 13 countries, and a client base that spans a variety of sectors, with industry-specific services making up the largest revenue share. The company’s strategic positioning, with 65% of its workforce in India, enables it to leverage cost advantages while maintaining high service quality, further reinforcing its competitive edge.
Additionally, Mittal’s confidence is bolstered by WNS’s recent acquisitions, which are expected to drive inorganic growth and expand the company’s geographical and product diversification, particularly in Europe. WNS’s resilience in a challenging macroeconomic environment, demonstrated by strong BPO demand and rapid contract ramp-ups, suggests a robust business model. The company’s superior net income margin compared to peers, coupled with a favorable earnings growth projection, justifies a premium valuation. Despite the potential risks associated with client and geographical concentration, Mittal believes that WNS’s current trading valuation presents an attractive entry point, leading to the assignment of a Buy rating with a revised target price.
Mittal covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Accenture, Cognizant, and Infosys. According to TipRanks, Mittal has an average return of 20.5% and a 76.83% success rate on recommended stocks.
In another report released today, Barrington also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $80.00 price target.
