2014 results. We delivered growth both sequentially as well as year over year, a result of the differentiated industry utility-solutions, enhanced client-centricity, streamlining of our core execution, building next-gen capabilities, and committed
IGATORs.
Our digital practice will be a key focus area for us in 2015 and we will continue to leverage our ITOPS solutions, he
added.
Sujit Sircar, CFO, said, We are satisfied with the cash flow position of the company and the de-leveraging of the balance sheet
during the year. In addition, we induced the conversion of the 8% Series B preferred stock on November 4, 2014, which will be value accretive going forward and will also improve our credit rating. However, we continue to see foreign exchange
volatility that needs to be monitored and observed carefully.

Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance
with, or an alternative for, measures prepared in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP
measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their comparable GAAP measures are included in the attached financial tables.
IGATE believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with IGATEs results of operations as
determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate IGATEs results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental in nature
and should not be considered in isolation or be construed as being more important than comparable GAAP measures.
IGATE believes that providing Adjusted
EBITDA and non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in addition to the related GAAP measures provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by IGATEs management in its financial and operational
decision-making. These non-GAAP measures are also used by the Management in connection with IGATEs performance compensation programs.
More
specifically, the non-GAAP financial measures contained herein exclude the following items:
|
|
|
Amortization of intangible assets: Intangible assets primarily comprise of customer relationships. We incur charges relating to the amortization of these intangibles. These charges are included in our GAAP presentation
of earnings from operations, operating margin, net income and diluted earnings per share. We exclude these charges for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP measures. |
|
|
|
Stock-based compensation: Although stock-based compensation is an important component of the compensation of IGATEs employees and executives, determining the fair value of the stock-based instruments involves a
high degree of judgment and estimation and the expense recorded may not reflect the actual value realized upon the future exercise or termination of the related stock-based awards. Furthermore, unlike cash compensation, the value of stock-based
compensation is determined using a complex formula that incorporates factors, such as market volatility, that are beyond the Companys control. Management believes it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation in order to better understand
the long-term performance of IGATEs core business. |
|
|
|
Foreign exchange (gain)/loss: From time to time, the Company recognizes foreign currency losses on re-measurement of escrow account balance and foreign exchange gains on re-measurement of redeemable non-controlling
interest liability. IGATE believes that eliminating these non-capitalized items for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of IGATEs current performance and comparisons to its past performance.
|
|
|
|
Delisting expenses: We voluntarily delisted the equity shares of our majority owned subsidiary, IGATE Computer Systems Limited from the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and the Bombay Stock Exchange Limited and
the American Depository Shares from the New York Stock Exchange. Delisting is an infrequent activity and expenses incurred in connection therein are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and nature of the delisting.
IGATE believes that eliminating these expenses for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of its current operating performance and comparisons to its past operating performance. |
|
|
|
Merger and reorganization expenses: IGATE is merging and reorganizing its overseas subsidiaries and branches with a view to simplifying the corporate
structure and has incurred legal and professional expenses in this connection. Merger and reorganization is an infrequent activity and expenses incurred in connection therein are inconsistent in amount and significantly impacted by
|
|
the timing and nature of the reorganization. IGATE believes that eliminating these expenses for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of IGATEs
current operating performance and comparisons to its past operating performance. |
|
|
|
Preferred dividend and accretion to preferred stock: In 2011, we issued 8.00% Series B Preferred Stock. We also incurred issuance costs that have been netted against the proceeds received from the issuance of the Series
B Preferred Stock. Prior to its conversion to common stock on November 4, 2014, the Series B Preferred Stock was being accreted over a period of six years. Although, the effect of inclusion of equivalent units of common stock towards
convertible participating preferred stock is anti-dilutive for GAAP purposes, the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share has been calculated assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock into equivalent units of common
stock. IGATE believes that eliminating these expenses as well as inclusion of equivalent units of common stock towards the preference shares till the date of conversion to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for purposes of calculating
these non-GAAP measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of IGATEs current operating performance and comparisons to its past operating performance. Following the conversion on November 4, 2014, there were no remaining issued and
outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. |
|
|
|
Induced Conversion: On Nov 4, 2014, the Company converted the preferred stock into 21,730,290 equity shares and paid $80 million in cash to the preferred stockholders. As per GAAP, the induced conversion amount charged
to retained earnings is subtracted from net income to arrive at income available to common stockholders in the calculation of GAAP earnings per share. IGATE believe that eliminating this charge for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures
facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of IGATEs current operating performance and comparisons to its past operating performance. |
|
|
|
Loss on extinguishment of debt: IGATE has extinguished debt prior to its scheduled maturity which has resulted in non-operating expenses which otherwise would not have been incurred. Debt extinguishment related charges
that are excluded from GAAP earnings to determine non-GAAP earnings consist of the extinguishment premium paid as well as the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. These expenses are inconsistent and of a non-recurring nature and IGATE
believes that eliminating them for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of IGATEs current operating performance and comparisons to its past operating performance. |
From time to time in the future, there may be other items that IGATE may exclude in presenting its financial results.

The number of outstanding participative convertible preferred stock for which the earnings per share exceeded the earnings per
share of common stock aggregated to Nil and 20.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive.

Net income after one time charge of $1.7 million towards write-off of unamortized preferred stock issuance cost. |
** |
On November 4, 2014, the Company entered into a Conversion and Exchange Agreement with Viscaria Limited (Viscaria) pursuant to which Viscaria exercised its option to convert its 330,000 shares of Series
B Preferred Stock into 21,730,290 shares of the Companys common stock. In connection with the conversion, the Company paid $80 million cash to Viscaria and charged this to retained earnings. As per ASC 260-10-S99-2, The Effect on the
Calculation of Earnings per Share for a Period That Includes the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock, the induced conversion amount paid is subtracted from net income to arrive at the income available to common stockholders in the
calculation of earnings per share. |

Non-GAAP Disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus (i) depreciation and amortization,
(ii) interest expense, (iii) income tax expense, minus (iv) other income, net plus (v) foreign exchange (gain)/loss, (vi) stock based compensation (vii) loss on extinguishment of debt (viii) Delisting expenses
(ix) Merger and reorganization expenses. We eliminated the impact of the above as we do not consider them as indicative of our ongoing operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them
appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA
should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
We present Adjusted EBITDA because
we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA:
(i) as a factor in evaluating managements performance when determining incentive compensation, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and (iii) because our credit agreement and our indenture use measures
similar to Adjusted EBITDA to measure our compliance with certain covenants.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these
limitations are:
|
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
|
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
|
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts; although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges,
the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; non-cash compensation is and will remain a key element of our overall
long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period; Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we
consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
Because of these limitations, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with
GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.
