Nov 6, 2008
Third Quarter Revenues Grow 26% year over year
GURGAON, India & NEW YORK, Nov 06, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- --Adjusted Income from Operations Increases 39% year over year

Genpact Limited (NYSE:G), a leader in the globalization of services and technology and a pioneer in managing business processes for companies around the world, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Key Financial Results - Third Quarter 2008

-- Revenues were $270.8 million, up 26% from the third quarter of 2007.

-- Net income was $33.6 million, up 106% from $16.3 million in the third quarter of 2007; net income margin for the third quarter of 2008 was 12.4%, up from 7.6% in the third quarter of 2007.

-- Diluted earnings per common share were $0.15, up from $0.07 per share in the third quarter of 2007.

-- Adjusted income from operations increased 39% to $49.5 million compared to the third quarter of 2007.

-- Adjusted income from operations margin was 18.3%, up from 16.6% in the third quarter of 2007.

-- Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.21, up from $0.13 in the third quarter of 2007.

Pramod Bhasin, Genpact's President and CEO said, "We completed a good third quarter, despite the dramatic changes in the global economy that began several months ago. Notable highlights of the quarter included 61% growth in Global Client revenues within our overall revenue growth of 26% and a 166 basis point improvement in adjusted operating income margin year over year. Based on our performance to date and our outlook for the remainder of the year, we continue to expect our 2008 full year revenues to grow by 26-28% from $823 million in 2007 and adjusted income from operations margin to improve by 80 to 100 basis points to between 17.1% and 17.3%. However, in light of the current environment, we expect that both measures will likely be at the lower end of the range."

Global Client revenues increased 61% compared to the third quarter of 2007 (growth with existing clients, or organic growth, excluding divested GE business was 61%), driven by Genpact's ability to expand its existing client relationships and build new ones.

Genpact continues to expand its client base. New additions include:

-- a Fortune 500 computer software company;

-- a global publisher and information provider;

-- a large regional US bank; and

-- a large US based pediatric healthcare organization.

GE revenues for the third quarter of 2008 were flat compared to the third quarter of 2007. Organic GE revenue growth was 6% this quarter. This excludes revenues from businesses divested by GE in 2007, all of which Genpact continues to serve and whose revenues are now included in Global Client revenues.

As of the end of the third quarter of 2008, 26 clients each accounted for $5 million or more of Genpact's revenues in the last twelve months. Of those, four clients each accounted for $25 million or more of Genpact's revenues in the last twelve months.

The mix between business process services and IT services revenues shifted slightly towards business process services in the third quarter of 2008, with business process services contributing approximately 81% of revenues in the third quarter of 2008, up from 76% for the full year 2007.

Genpact generated $59 million of cash from operations in the third quarter of 2008, up from $27 million in the third quarter of 2007.

-- Net income was $78.1 million, up 209% from $25.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007; net income margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was 10.3%, up from 4.3% in the nine months 2007.

-- Diluted earnings per common share were $0.36, up from a loss of $0.13 per share in the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

-- Adjusted income from operations increased 37% to $119.7 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

-- Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.53, up from $0.30 in the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

As of September 30, 2008, Genpact had more than 36,000 employees worldwide. Genpact's attrition rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, measured from day one of employment, was 26% compared to 30% in 2007. Genpact's attrition rate would be 20% if measured after six months of employment as many of Genpact's competitors do.

Reconciliation of Adjusted 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: non-GAAP adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share and pro forma earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rulesor 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 measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliations of Genpact's GAAP financial statements to such non-GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.

For its internal management reporting and budgeting purposes, Genpact's management uses financial statements that do not include stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options, amortization of acquired intangibles at formation in 2004 and additional depreciation due to mark-to-market adjustment at formation in 2004 for financial and operational decision-making, to evaluate period-to-period comparisons or for making comparisons of Genpact's operating results to that of its competitors. Moreover, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use when adopting FAS 123(R), Genpact's management believes that providing financial statements that do not include stock-based compensation allows investors to make additional comparisons between Genpact's operating results to those of other companies. In addition, Genpact's management believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude amortization of acquired intangibles and additional depreciation due to mark-to-market adjustment at formation allows investors to make additional comparisons between Genpact's operating results to those of other companies. The Company also believes that it is unreasonably difficult to provide its financial outlook in accordance with GAAP for a number of reasons including, without limitation, the Company's inability to predict its future stock-based compensation expense under FAS 123(R)and the amortization of intangibles associated with further acquisitions, if any. Accordingly, Genpact believes that the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income, 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.

In addition, for its internal management reporting for 2007, Genpact's management used adjusted earnings per share and pro forma earnings per share that do not include impact of the undistributed earnings to preferred stock, preferred dividend and beneficial interest on conversion of preferred stock dividend and assumesthe preferred stock was converted to common shares. As of July13, 2007, prior to the IPO, all the preferred stock has been converted to common shares. Accordingly, the Company believes that to evaluate period to period comparisons, the presentation of non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and pro forma earnings per share 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 non-GAAP adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income versus income from operations and net income calculated in accordance with GAAP is that non-GAAP adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income excludes costs, namely, stock-based compensation, that are recurring. Stock-based compensation has been and will continue to be a significant recurring expense in Genpact's business for the foreseeable future. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income and evaluating such non-GAAP financial measures with financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

During the second quarter of 2008, Genpact has reclassified its foreign exchange gains or losses from a separate line item in order to more clearly reflect Genpact's costs, including the impact of its long-term foreign exchange hedging strategy. This reclassification affects income from operations and consequently affects adjusted income from operations. This reclassification does not affect adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share.

The following tables show the reconciliation of the adjusted
financial measures from GAAP on a reclassified basis for the periods
ended September 30, 2008:
