Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
Sagility delivered a strong operational performance in Q1 FY27, recording revenue from operations of INR 1,963.5 crore, representing a robust year-on-year growth of 27.6% (15.2% in constant currency terms). Organic YoY revenue growth stood at an impressive 27.3%.
On a sequential basis, reported revenue softened by 3.0% compared to Q4 FY26 due to normal industry seasonality related to Open Enrollment and Annual Election Period (OE/AEP) cycles. Excluding seasonal revenues, steady-state organic revenue grew by 5.1% QoQ in constant currency terms.
Profitability remained resilient, with reported EBITDA for the quarter standing at INR 452.5 crore and adjusted EBITDA reaching INR 471.6 crore at a 24.0% margin. Adjusted PAT grew 35.1% YoY to INR 269.7 crore (reported PAT stood at INR 216.8 crore).
The quarter's earnings were impacted by statutory minimum wage increases in Karnataka and Telangana, which resulted in a one-time past service cost impact of INR 70 crore on employee benefits and an exceptional item of INR 151 crore for gratuity and compensated absences.
Operating cash generation remained strong, with operating cash flow (OCF) at INR 316.1 crore representing a 69.9% conversion on reported EBITDA, while Free Cash Flow (FCF) reached INR 241.6 crore despite ongoing acquisition-related earnout payments.
Strategic expansion continued during the quarter with the acquisition of CareSeed, a U.S.-based healthcare analytics firm specializing in HEDIS reporting and Medicare Advantage solutions, adding 26 new small and mid-sized health plan clients and enhancing platform depth.
