Press Releases

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Genpact Limited (NYSE: G), a global leader in digitally-powered business process management and services, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Key Financial Results – Third Quarter 2016

• Total revenue was $648.8 million, up 5% year over year (up ~7% on a constant currency basis).  
• Income from operations was $87.1 million, down 0.3% year over year, with a corresponding margin of 13.4%.  Adjusted income from operations was $104.2 million, up 7% year over year, with a corresponding  margin of 16.1%.³
• Diluted earnings per share were $0.33, up 5% year over year, and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.37, up 6% year over year.
• Genpact repurchased approximately 6.3 million of its common shares during the quarter at an average price of $24.78 per share for a total of approximately $156 million under its $750 million share repurchase program. Since the inception of this program in February 2015, Genpact has repurchased 19.5 million of its common shares at an average price of $24.10 per share for a total of approximately $469 million.

"In the third quarter, our Global Client BPO revenues significantly accelerated to 15% constant currency growth.  We saw recent deal wins ramp and our transformational digital and analytics services, led by our highly differentiated Lean Digital^SM approach, continued to gain traction and grew more than 20%," said N.V. "Tiger" Tyagarajan, Genpact's president and CEO. "The fundamentals of our underlying Global Client BPO business remain strong and our pivot to Lean Digital^SM is clearly differentiating us in the marketplace.  As we finish the year, we continue to see pressure in our ITO business as clients across our verticals are taking a very cautious approach towards discretionary IT spending."

Revenue Details – Third Quarter 2016

• Revenue from Global Clients was $543 million, up 8% year over year (up ~10% on a constant currency basis), representing approximately 84% of total revenues.
• Revenue from GE was $106 million, down 8% year over year, representing approximately 16% of total revenues.
• Total BPO revenue was $526 million, up 9% year over year, representing approximately 81% of total revenues.

¹ Revenue growth on a constant currency basis is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated by restating current-period activity using the prior fiscal period's foreign currency exchange rates adjusted for hedging gains/losses in such period.
² Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP measure. A reconciliation of GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share is attached to this release.
³ Adjusted income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin are non-GAAP measures. A reconciliation of GAAP income from operations and adjusted income from operations and a reconciliation of GAAP income from operations margin and adjusted income from operations margin are attached to this release.

• Global Client BPO revenue was $445 million, up 13% year over year (up ~15% on a constant currency basis).
• GE BPO revenue was $81 million, down 8% year over year.
• Total IT revenue was $123 million, down 8% year over year, representing approximately 19% of total revenues.
• Global Client IT revenue was $98 million, down 9% year over year.
• GE IT revenue was $25 million, down 7% year over year.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, GE divested certain businesses that Genpact continues to serve.  Historically, we have reclassified revenues from these divested GE businesses as Global Client revenues in each fiscal quarter beginning on the date of divestiture.  However, beginning with 2016, we will reclassify such revenue as Global Client revenue only at the end of each fiscal year.  We believe that this change will allow us to provide a more consistent view of the trends underlying our Global Client and GE businesses. If we had reclassified the revenue from such GE-divested businesses during the third quarter, Global Client revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 would have been $563 million and GE revenues would have been $85 million.

Cash Flow from Operations

• Cash from operations was $144 million in the third quarter of 2016, up 3% from $139 million in the third quarter of 2015.

Other Metrics as of September 30, 2016

• For the 12-month period ended September 30, 2016, the number of our client relationships generating annual revenue over $5 million increased to 107 from 103 as of September 30, 2015. This includes client relationships generating more than $15 million in annual revenue decreasing to 33 from 34, client relationships generating more than $25 million in annual revenue remaining constant at 16, and client relationships generating more than $50 million in annual revenue increasing to 6 from 4.
• Genpact's employee attrition rate for the quarter was approximately 27%, measured from the first day of employment, down from 29% for the same period in 2015. 

2016 Outlook

Genpact now expects:

• Total revenue for 2016 to be $2.57 to $2.58 billion (including an assumed adverse foreign exchange impact of $43 million, almost all of which is reflected in Global Client revenue), which represents a growth range of 4% to 5%, or 6% to 7% on a constant currency basis;
• Global Client revenue growth to be in the range of 7% to 8%, or 9% to 10% on a constant currency basis;
• Adjusted income from operations margin of approximately 15.5%;⁴ and
• Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.42 to $1.43.⁵

⁴ Adjusted income from operations margin is a non-GAAP measure.   A reconciliation of the outlook for GAAP income from operations margin and adjusted income from operations margin is attached to this release.
⁵ Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP measure.  A reconciliation of the outlook for GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share is attached to this release.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes the following measures defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as non-GAAP financial measures:

• Adjusted income from operations attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted income from operations;
• Adjusted income from operations margin;
• Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted net income;
• Adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted diluted earnings per share; and
• Net revenues on a constant currency basis.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliations of Genpact's GAAP financial statements to such non-GAAP financial measures should be carefully evaluated.

Prior to July 2012, Genpact's management used financial statements that excluded significant acquisition-related expenses, amortization of related acquired intangibles, and amortization of acquired intangibles at the company's formation in 2004 for its internal management reporting, budgeting and decision making purposes, including comparing Genpact's operating results to that of its competitors. However, considering Genpact's frequent acquisitions of varying scale and size, and the difficulty in predicting expenses relating to acquisitions and the amortization of acquired intangibles thereof, since July 2012 Genpact's management has used financial statements that exclude all acquisition-related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles for its internal management reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes, including comparing Genpact's operating results to those of its competitors. For the same reasons, beginning in April 2016, Genpact's management also excludes the impairment of acquired intangible assets from the financial statements it uses for internal management purposes.

Acquisition-related expenses are excluded in the period in which an acquisition is consummated. Genpact's management also uses financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use when adopting ASC 718 "Compensation-Stock Compensation," Genpact's management believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between Genpact's operating results and those of other companies. Additionally, in its calculations of such non-GAAP financial measures, Genpact's management has adjusted certain gains or losses attributable to equity-method investments and non-controlling interests because management views these interests as part of its ongoing operations. For the purpose of calculating adjusted net income, the combined current and deferred tax effect is determined by multiplying each pre-tax adjustment by the applicable statutory income tax rate.

Genpact's management provides information about revenues on a constant currency basis so that the revenues may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our true business performance. Revenues on a constant currency basis are calculated by restating current-period activity using the prior fiscal period's foreign currency exchange rates adjusted for hedging gains/losses in such period.

Accordingly, Genpact believes that the presentation of adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and revenues on a constant currency basis, when read in conjunction with the Company's reported results, can provide useful supplemental information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations.

A limitation of using adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income versus income from operations and net income calculated in accordance with GAAP is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain recurring costs, namely stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangibles. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the GAAP amounts excluded from adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income.

The following tables show the reconciliation of these adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016:

⁶ See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures" above for a description of the amortization expenses included in this item.

The following tables show the reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the year ending December 31, 2016:
