As Wipro gears itself up under new leadership, it has joined hands with the computing behemoth Intel in hopes of inking for more deals in the coming quarters. Wipro’s new CEO Theirry Delaporte expressed that the company will be focusing on ‘profitable growth’ in the coming months and Intel seems to be a part of that plan. Aside from cloud solutions, one of the major asks from clients is to enable their employees to work from home — especially from those who didn’t invest enough in their digital transformation over the last few years. They have been bearing the brunt of the coronavirus crisis over the last few weeks, according to Delaporte. “Therefore if we need to make investments, we will make those investments and that will always be our first priority,” explained Wipro CFO Jatin Dalal. Pushing on remote work solutions Intel will enable Wipro’s LIVE Workspace which will be the company’s digital workspace solution within the Intel vPro platform. It’s basically a digital hub that lets a company manage its devices remotely whether it's at home, in the workplace or somewhere remote. It also promises security against firmware-level attacks. Cybersecurity has been a central concern for many companies as the number of malware attacks during the lockdown have been on the rise. Global IT giant Cognizant was subject to a ransomware attack and another US-based law company saw its clients’ personal data get stolen off its servers.

dive after its largest ever acquisition worth $1.45 billion. “The execution risk is further aggravated by a weak growth performance from Capco over the last two years – even after adjusting for the drag due to COVID-19,” said Motilal Oswal in its report dated March 4. Its share price is down over 3.5% at 1:00 pm on March 5. <div type="image" title="Copy of Infosys" msid="81345618" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Wipro share price growth over the last 365 days&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> According to Nomura, even though the Wipro-Capco deal adds presence in the consulting businesses, it has typically been a less successful venture for Indian IT services companies. The global brokerage is also wary that the valuation of the deal is a bit on the higher side and will impact margins in the long run since consulting requires heavy onsite presence. “Ongoing restructuring and investments would take a toll on margins in the near term, eating away at gains from operational efficiency. Even lower margins from acquiring Capco would further put pressure on the bottom line,” added Motilal Oswal. The deal between Wipro and Capco is likely to be finalised by June 2021, subject to regulatory approvals.

Wipro's share price has outperformed its peers in the last year — but analysts are still cautious about giving it a 'buy' rating

The deal is for a whopping $117 million in cash, according to the <a href="https://www.bseindia.com/xml-data/corpfiling/AttachLive/30f63b80-346c-4b93-b178-b98609929b59.pdf">regulatory filing</a>. The India IT major’s share price was up by 1.8% as markets opened today morning but settled at around 1.1% above yesterday’s closing at 10:30 am. The company's stock has gained over 8% this year, so far. <div type="image" title="Copy of Aadhaar PDS beneficiers" msid="81818356" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Wipro&amp;#39;s share price since 1 January 2021&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> Ampion is a leading player in the Australian market when it comes to providing cybersecurity, DevOps and engineering services. The Melbourne-based business has a local team of 500 consulting and technology specialists and 150 clients already in the bag. According to Wipro, the leadership of both companies will collaborate to finalise the brand strategy in Australia and New Zealand. Ampion will retain its operational identity during the initial period on integration, which is from six to 12 months. The financial impact of the deal won’t be reflected in this quarter’s number. The acquisition is likely only to be finalised in the three months ending on June 30 and will be a boost to Wipro’s first quarter earnings of the financial year 2021-22. “Wipro’s new operating model emphasises strategic investments in focus geographies, proximity to customers, agility, scale and localisation. The acquisition of Ampion is an important step for Wipro in this direction,” the company said in its <a href="https://www.bseindia.com/xml-data/corpfiling/AttachLive/30f63b80-346c-4b93-b178-b98609929b59.pdf">press release.</a> The chief executive officer (CEO) of Ampion, Jamie Duffield, will continue to lead the business and take on a role within the Wipro’s leadership team in Australia. And all existing employees are expected to stay on even after the integration. “We see Ampion as a complementary force that will help us expand our footprint and accelerate our journey in the Asia Pacific region,” said N.S. Bala, CEO for Asia Pacific and Middle East region at Wipro. The news comes within a month of Wipro announcing its largest acquisition ever in March of the technology consulting company, Capco, to strengthen its role in global financial services. Wipro, which saw a major overhaul in strategy as its new CEO — Thierry Delaporte — came on board in June, last year. The company’s current impetus is on ‘profitable growth’ and it has been on a buying spree during the course of the pandemic.

Wipro — the fourth largest IT services company in India — is planning to boost its hiring efforts to <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/ites/wipro-to-scale-up-sales-team-to-win-deals-and-influence-growth/articleshow/69243501.cms">expand the sales workforce</a> across geographies, ET reported. The IT major is reportedly looking for technical sales professionals in specific areas including cloud, engineering services and cyber security services that will cater to the markets in Australia, the US and the Middle East. “Wipro is…bringing in new blood and has tasked recruitment firms to look at bid and account managers,” ET reported. According to the jobs that Wipro advertised on its <a href="https://careers.wipro.com/">portal</a>, the company is looking for people who have a prior experience in multiple service line deals worth over $10 million (nearly ₹699 million). Earlier in January, the company <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/wipro-campus-placements-to-double/articleshow/67719782.cms">reportedly doubled its campus hiring</a> along with salary hikes for graduates with digital expertise such as in big data and analytics. Wipro had been planning to hire fresh talent that can be trained with advanced digital skills. According to an ET report, the move is aimed at securing more traditional deals. The initiative comes as the IT company recovers from underperformance in the past years, fetching higher profits in the recent quarter. The IT sector faced a challenging time back in 2017, laying off nearly 56,000 professionals as automation took over the technical job market. According to the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/hiring-tcs-infosys-wipro-and-others-up-12-months-in-a-row/articleshow/69019342.cms">World Economic Forum (WEF)</a>, the growing demand for digitisation will take away nearly 75 million jobs by 2022. According to Peter Bendor-Samuel, chief executive officer of IT consultancy Everest Research, “Wipro, has clearly struggled when compared against its peer companies when it comes to sales. Investment in its sales force seems to be one of several steps which make sense,” ET reported.
