- CAMS expects continued revenue growth driven by both MF and non-MF segments, with non-MF revenue growing mid- to high-20% in upcoming quarters (Page 19). - Mutual Fund (MF) revenues may see a short-term 30%+ decline but are unlikely to stay this low for 2 years; expected to revert to teens growth rates (Page 20). - Overall revenue growth is projected around 30%+, supported by diversification and increasing non-MF contribution aimed at reaching 20% by FY '27 (Pages 19-20). - EBITDA margins are strong around 46.9%, with a gradual margin improvement trend expected (~1% per year), supported by cost control and automation (Pages 9, 16). - Profit After Tax (PAT) grew 44.9% year-on-year, with margins expanding; no aggressive margin targets but focus on sustaining profitability (Page 9,16). - Long-term revenue growth assumption aligns with ~75% of AUM growth translating into fee revenue growth (Page 17).

- The company reported 57 new mandates won in Q2 FY '25 across multiple segments including AIF, PMS RTS servicing, fund accounting, WealthServ platform, WealthTrack analytics, and custody. - These 57 mandates are a cumulative sigma of wins, not exclusively new client revenues. - Currently, some mandates like Nivruti do not yet have live clients, indicating revenue is not recognized from all signed mandates. - Discussions and deal closures with major funds in the alternate business continue, with ongoing onboarding expected over the next year and beyond. - The company expects a thumb rule of approximately 75% growth per annum in alternative asset management spaces, with occasional quarters performing better. - The new mandates indicate a growing orderbook, though revenue recognition will phase in as clients go live.
