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 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 2012Genpact'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 because management views these interests as part of its ongoing operations and has excluded certain gains or losses attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest because management does not view these interests as part of its operations. For the purpose of calculating adjusted diluted earnings per share, 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 revenues may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, thereby providing additional 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 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 income from operations margin versus income from operations and adjusted income from operations margin calculated in accordance with GAAP is that this non-GAAP financial measure excludes 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 income from operations margin.

The following tables show the reconciliation of these adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the year and three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2016:

 

 

 

 

 

The following tables show the reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the year ending December 31, 2017:

 

 

 

 

Set forth below is a supplemental schedule depicting the reclassification of our 2016 revenue:

 

 

 

[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.
[4] New bookings represents the total contract value of new contracts and certain renewals, extensions and changes to existing contracts.  Regular renewals of contracts with no change in scope are not counted as new bookings.
[5] During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, GE divested certain businesses that Genpact continues to serve.  We reclassify such revenue as Global Client revenue after the end of the fiscal year rather than at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the divestitures occurred.  For the year ended December 31, 2016, Global Client revenue would have been $2.21 billion if we had reclassified such revenues on a quarterly basis.
[6] During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, GE divested certain businesses that Genpact continues to serve.  We reclassify such revenue as Global Client revenue after the end of the fiscal year rather than at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the divestitures occurred.  For the year ended December 31, 2016, GE revenue would have been $358 million if we had reclassified such revenues on a quarterly basis.
[7] During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, GE divested certain businesses that Genpact continues to serve.  Attached to this release is a schedule depicting the reclassification of revenues attributable to divested GE businesses from GE to Global Client revenue as if the divestitures had occurred on January 1, 2016 as well as the reclassification of revenues from our 2016 acquisitions of Endeavour Software Technologies Private Limited and PNMSoft Ltd. as BPO rather than IT revenue.  The outlook for total 2017 revenue growth was determined using the reclassified numbers set forth on the schedule.  
[8] 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.
[9] 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.   
[10] See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures" above for a description of the amortization expenses included in this item.
[11] Due to rounding, the numbers presented in this table may not add up precisely to the totals provided.
[12] Due to rounding, the numbers presented in this table may not add up precisely to the totals provided.
