Diamond Hill Small Cap Fund stated the following regarding WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE:WNS) in its fourth quarter 2023 investor letter:
"Our bottom contributors in Q4 included Civitas Resources and WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE:WNS). Shares of India-based business process management company WNS Holdings declined as investors believe it is not winning in the generative artificial intelligence (AI) race, potentially impairing its growth trajectory. However, we believe this interpretation misunderstands WNS’s services and is unrelated to concerns about the potential impact of AI on the business. We continue to like WNS’s business model, which generates recurring revenues among a relatively sticky customer base given high switching in in-housing costs."
