The company reported positive financial results for the full year and quarter, with growth in key metrics like EBITDA and PBT. The announcement of a share buyback and the new CEO's confident outlook on future growth contribute to a positive sentiment.
TeamLease Services Limited has released the transcript of its Q4 FY26 earnings call, which was hosted on Wednesday, May 20, 2026, at 04:00 P.M. IST. The transcript is available on the company's website.
During the call, Ms. Suparna Mitra, the new Managing Director and CEO, acknowledged the legacy built by the previous leadership and expressed excitement about building on the company's foundation. She noted that Q4 FY26 demonstrated operating discipline despite softer revenues due to a client insourcing, with EBITDA growing 8% sequentially and PBT growing 30% year-on-year. For the full year, EBITDA grew 14%, PBT grew 36%, and EPS was ₹83, a 28% increase. Key focus areas for the future include adding new logos, scaling higher-margin businesses like TeamLease Digital and Degree Apprenticeship, and investing in technology and talent.
Mr. Balasubramanian A. highlighted that FY26 was a year of transition, with a significant NBFC client insourcing impacting headcount. However, the underlying business added meaningful headcount, and operating leverage led to an 11% PBT growth despite a marginally negative volume year. He also noted a 20% year-on-year reduction in cost to hire. The company added about 120 new logos during the year. Looking ahead to FY27, the macro setup is supportive, though uncertainties like the implementation of labor codes, uneven discretionary consumption, and geopolitical risks are being monitored.
Ms. Neeti Sharma discussed the Specialised Staffing business, which saw increased demand for niche roles in AI, data, and cloud. PAPM realization increased by 17% and year-on-year PBT grew by 15%. The GCC business remains a cornerstone, contributing significantly to headcount and revenues. The global business grew by 200% in revenue.
Ms. Ramani Dathi presented the financial highlights, noting Q4 FY26 operating revenues of ₹2,925 crores and full-year revenue growth of 6%. EBITDA grew 8% Q-o-Q and 14% for the full year. PBT grew 30% year-on-year for the quarter and 36% for the full year. Profit after tax grew 22% year-on-year for the quarter and 33% for the full year. The company closed Q4 with net free cash of ₹600 crores. The Board approved a buyback of up to 25% of free reserves at ₹1,600 per share. The company plans an exit of about 10,000 headcount from staffing and DA businesses in Q1 and Q2 of FY27, revisiting low-margin mandates.
