Press Releases

NEW YORK, Feb. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Genpact Limited (NYSE: G), a global leader in digitally-powered business process management and services, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a dividend program under which Genpact intends to pay a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 to holders of its common shares, representing a planned annual dividend of $0.24 per share.  The initial dividend will be paid on or about March 28, 2017 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 10, 2017.  The declaration of any future dividends is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors.

In addition, Genpact today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a $500 million increase to its existing $750 million share repurchase program. Genpact currently has approximately $158 million available under its existing $750 million program. Genpact anticipates purchasing its common shares from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, and has completed $592 million in share repurchases since the share repurchase program was first announced in February 2015. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased will be determined by Genpact's management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when Genpact might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Any repurchased shares will be canceled.

The dividend and share repurchase program is expected to be funded through a combination of surplus cash on Genpact's balance sheet, operating cash flows, and borrowings under its existing credit facilities.
