Aurionpro 2.0
Our conviction in Aurionpro stems from various business initiatives undertaken by the new CEO (joined the board in FY22 and promoted to CEO in FY24) towards R&D, developing new IPs, global fintech partnerships, and headcount addition. These initiatives have already started to yield positive results; and along with strategic acquisitions (funded towards capital raise and internal accruals) are all steps in the right direction. Our lateral checks across banking product & services (53% of revenue) & TIG (47%) segment reaffirms our thesis around product acceptance, and the growth opportunity.

Transit & Data centers to drive TIG (Technology Innovation group):
In the transit segment, Aurionpro recently won Delhi Metro and Chennai Metro. This is in addition to its deal-wins globally and demonstrates its strong capabilities as fully integrated player (hardware+ software) for smart gates, kiosks, AFCโs (Automated fare collection) over its peers. On the data center front, it has won a deal from RBI which was for a complex project highlighting its capabilities in consulting, design & implementation. With GOI thrust towards metro connectivity and focus on data centers, we expect these divisions to witness 30%+ CAGR over FY25-27E. On the smart city project, it is working on the Panvel project (Rs2bn), albeit is cautiously optimistic given the nature of business.

Valuations, view & risks
Revenue diversification given presence across multiple tech-segments, huge TAM therein, deal-wins and healthy order book visibility provide greater comfort. 60%+ OCF / EBITDA conversion, superior return ratios, and strong organic growth adds to our conviction. We are factoring in 25.3%/25.6%/29.6% Revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR over FY24-FY27E, and value the company at 35x FY27 PE, resulting in a TP of Rs 2,020. Our base case estimates do not factor any acquisitions. Our bear case / bull-case TP is at Rs 1,270 / Rs 2,225. Key risks: Slowdown in BFSI IT spends; delay in metro projects and data centers.

Strong R&D and new product launches a key
Aurionpro has consistently demonstrated its commitment to innovation and technological advancement through robust research and development (R&D) initiatives over the past three years. During this period, the company has invested over Rs 2.5 Bn to enhance its existing product portfolio while simultaneously developing new solutions aimed at addressing emerging market needs. This substantial investment underscores Aurionpro's strategic focus on strengthening its capabilities, improving product functionality, and ensuring its offerings remain competitive in a rapidly evolving technological landscape. Looking ahead, Aurionpro is expected to continue allocating a significant portion of its revenueโ approximately 7-8%โtoward R&D activities. This sustained investment reflects the company's dedication to fostering innovation and expanding its solution suited to cater to diverse customer requirements. In particular, Aurionpro has recently introduced two new products, Auropay and Aurobees, which were developed over the past two years. Although these products are yet to generate meaningful revenue contributions, their future growth prospects appear promising. With large total addressable markets (TAM) for both solutions, these products are expected to gain traction and start delivering substantial revenue from FY26 onwards. While many of Aurionproโs competitors are also investing heavily in R&D to enhance their offerings, Aurionproโs consistent success in securing key deal wins sets it apart. The company's ability to maintain a strong sales pipeline, coupled with a solid order book, further highlights its capacity to translate its R&D investments into real-world business outcomes. These achievements reinforce the notion that Aurionproโs strategic focus on innovation is yielding tangible results, positioning the company well for sustained growth and continued success in the industry.
