Sagility Block Deal: Promoter Sagility BV to Divest 12% Stake for ₹2,377 Crore.
In a significant transaction poised to affect the equity landscape, promoter Sagility B.V. plans to divest a 12% stake in Sagility, a healthcare-focused IT-enabled services provider, through a block deal valued at Rs 2,377 crore. The stake sale will occur at a floor price of Rs 42.45 per share, which represents a discount of 4.9% compared to the stock’s last closing price of Rs 44.69. Following the execution of the deal, the promoter’s holding in Sagility, which currently stands at 50.95% with over 238 million shares, will decrease, prompting a 365-day lock-up on the residual stake to stabilize future transactions.
Financially, Sagility reported an adjusted profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 325.4 crore for Q2 FY27, signifying an 8.1% increase year-on-year. Revenue experienced a robust growth of 22.5%, reaching Rs 2,032.1 crore, with organic growth at 22.2%. A notable enhancement in operational efficiency is highlighted by a 23% rise in adjusted EBITDA to Rs 535.3 crore, translating into an adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.3%, which is the highest in the last six quarters. Such financial indicators reflect a robust business model, especially as the company gears up for the traditionally stronger second half of the fiscal year.
The management emphasized continued momentum across multiple fronts, bolstering confidence in their pipeline of lucrative contracts. The strategic integration of AI technologies and recent acquisitions, such as Chirok Health LLC, are expected to enhance Sagility’s offerings in revenue cycle management. Additionally, the addition of new client groups and rising annual contract values underscore a healthy growth trajectory. With a commitment to shareholder returns showcased through a recently declared interim dividend of Rs 0.15 per share, the company displays a proactive approach to sustaining and enhancing value for investors.
