Excelsoft Technologies reported Q4 FY26 revenue of ₹812 million, up 16% YoY, while FY26 revenue grew 17% to ₹2,725 million. PAT for FY26 jumped 25% to ₹434 million. However, Q4 EBITDA margin contracted to 30.3% from 40.5% due to a one-time ₹8.5 crore expense for hiring 30 consultants in the US to create a nearshore team. Management clarified this cost will recur quarterly but expects margins to recover to 30-31% range as the team generates revenue. The company announced a landmark partnership with AQA (UK's largest examination body) and a partnership with Civil Service Commission of Philippines. New CEO Doreswamy Palaniswamy (14 acquisitions experience) has taken over acquisition strategy. Confirmed order book stands at ₹300 crore for FY27.
The temporary margin compression from US nearshore hiring is a strategic investment to capture domain-based AI services opportunities in the US; shareholders should expect margin recovery in FY27 while benefiting from the transformational AQA contract.
