“Free cash flow of $848 million in Q4 was highest in the last 11 quarters driven by our relentless focus to improve working capital cycle. Consistent with the objective of giving high and predictable returns to shareholders, the Board has approved the capital allocation policy under which the company expects to return 85% over the next 5 years and progressively increase annual Dividend Per Share”, said Jayesh Sanghrajka, CFO. “Operating margin expansion in the medium-term and improving cash generation continue to remain our priorities underpinned by early success in Project Maximus”, he added.

2. Capital Allocation
· For the Financial Year 2024, the Board recommended a final dividend of 20 per share (0.24 per ADS) and additionally a special dividend of 8 per share (0.10 per ADS*). With this, the total payout over FY20 – FY 24 will be 85% of Free Cash Flow, in line with our capital allocation policy announced earlier.

· The Board in its meeting held on April 18, 2024 has reviewed and approved the capital allocation policy for the next 5 years from FY25 – FY29 after taking into consideration the strategic and operational cash requirements as below.

“Effective from financial year 2025, the Company expects to continue its policy of returning approximately 85% of the free cash flow cumulatively over a 5-year period through a combination of semi-annual dividends and/or share buyback/ special dividends subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if any.”

Under this policy, the Company expects to progressively increase its annual Dividend Per Share (excluding special dividend if any).

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the consolidated statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS. Dividend and buyback include applicable taxes.

a) The audited interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2024 have been taken on record by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on April 18, 2024. The statutory auditors, Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP have expressed an unmodified audit opinion. The information presented above is extracted from the audited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules thereafter.

 

b) Update on McCamish Cybersecurity incident

 

In November 2023, Infosys McCamish Systems (McCamish), a step-down subsidiary of Infosys Limited, experienced a cybersecurity incident resulting in the non-availability of certain applications and systems. McCamish initiated its incident response and engaged cybersecurity and other specialists to assist in its investigation of and response to the incident and remediation and restoration of impacted applications and systems. By December 31, 2023, McCamish, with external specialists’ assistance, substantially remediated and restored the affected applications and systems.

 

Loss of contracted revenues and costs incurred with respect to remediations, restoration, communication efforts, investigative processes and analysis, legal services and others amounted to $38 million (approximately 316 crore) for the year ended March 31, 2024.

 

Actions taken by McCamish included investigative analysis conducted by a third-party cybersecurity firm to determine, among other things, whether and the extent to which company or customer data was subject to unauthorized access or exfiltration. McCamish also engaged a third-party vendor for eDiscovery in assessing the extent and nature of such data. McCamish in coordination with its third-party eDiscovery vendor has identified corporate customers and individuals whose information was subject to unauthorized access and exfiltration. McCamish’s review process is ongoing. McCamish may incur additional costs including indemnities or damages/claims, which are indeterminable at this time.

 

c) Proposed acquisition

 

On April 18, 2024, Infosys Germany GmBH a wholly owned step down subsidiary of Infosys Limited, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the equity share capital of in-tech Holding GmbH, a leading provider of Engineering R&D services headquartered in Germany, for a consideration including earn-outs amounting up to EUR 450 million (approximately 4,045 crore) excluding management incentives, and retention bonus subject to customary closing adjustments.

 

d) Update on Capital allocation policy

 

Effective from Financial Year 2025, the Company expects to continue its policy of returning approximately 85% of the Free Cash Flow cumulatively over a 5-year period through a combination of semi-annual dividends and/or share buyback/ special dividends subject to applicable laws and requisite approvals, if any. Under this policy, the Company expects to progressively increase its annual Dividend Per Share (excluding special dividend if any).

 

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditure as per the consolidated statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS.

 

Dividend and buyback include applicable taxes.

 

e) Update on orders received from the Indian Income tax department

 

During the quarter ending March 31, 2024, the Company received orders under sections 250 and 254 of the Income tax Act, 1961, from the Income Tax Authorities in India for the assessment years, 2007-08 to 2015-16, 2017-18 and 2018-19. These orders confirmed the Company's position with respect to tax treatment of certain contentious matters. As a result interest income (pre-tax) of 1,933 crore (included in other income as mentioned in point (f) below) was recognised and provision for income tax aggregating 525 crore was reversed with a corresponding credit to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Also, upon resolution of the disputes, an amount aggregating to 1,628 crore has been reduced from contingent liabilities.

 

f) Other income includes interest on income tax refund of 1,916 crore and 2 crore for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively, 1,965 crore and 3 crore for the year ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 respectively, and 42 crore for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Notes on segment information

 

Business segments

 

Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind-AS 108 - Operating Segments, the Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the Group's performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments. Accordingly, information has been presented along these business segments. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments.

 

Segmental capital employed

 

Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business are not identified to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.
