Key Findings & Highlights:

Virtusa was founded in 1996 and is headquartered in Massachusetts, U.S. Initially, it focused on working with product companies, providing product  development capabilities, and incorporating an engineering mindset into application development.  

Virtusa is a high growth company, experiencing over 20% revenue growth in each of the past five years. It appears to be focusing on size and scale over high profitability: its operating margin in FY16 was 7.5%, below the operating margin of traditional India-centric vendors. 

In March 2016, Virtusa closed its acquisition of Chennai based Polaris for ~$270m. VirtusaPolaris combined Polaris' banking and financial services application development and management business with Virtusa's banking and financial services industry segment experience, and expects to realize over $100m of revenue synergies in the three years following the close of the acquisition. 

VirtusaPolaris positions its digital transformation services against the perceived objectives of its clients. Specifically, it positions its offerings in terms of achieving the following objectives: customer experience, operational excellence and business innovation.  

VirtusaPolaris' headcount as of December 31, 2016, was 17,500, down 726 from 18,226 at the end of CY 2015. NelsonHall estimates that ~3k of its headcount is focused on digital transformation services. 

VirtusaPolaris utilizes 21 delivery centers to deliver its services, including its digital transformation services.
