Second Quarter 2021 Performance by Business Segment
Financial Services (32.8% of revenues) revenue grew 7.6%
year-over-year, or 4.8% in constant currency, which included the
benefit of recently completed acquisitions and growth in digital
revenue. Revenue declines related to our non-digital services
continued to pressure results as our clients optimize the cost of
supporting their legacy systems and operations.
Healthcare (28.9% of revenues) revenue grew 14.5%
year-over-year, or 13.4% in constant currency. Growth was driven in
part by our integrated software solutions for our healthcare
clients and broad-based demand from our life sciences
customers.
Products and Resources (23.0% of revenues) revenue grew
21.7% year-over-year, or 17.8% in constant currency, which included
the benefit of recently completed acquisitions and was driven by
manufacturing, logistics, energy and utilities clients. Growth
among our retail, consumer goods, travel and hospitality clients
reflects improving demand for our services despite continued
elevated uncertainty related to the pandemic.
Communications, Media and Technology (15.3% of revenues)
revenue grew 21.2% year-over-year, or 17.9% in constant currency.
Revenue growth included the benefit of recently completed
acquisitions and increased demand from technology clients. The
impact from our exit of certain content-related services negatively
impacted segment growth by approximately 190 basis points.
In addition to the above, year-over-year revenue growth across
all segments reflects the impact on 2020 revenues from the pandemic
and the April 2020 ransomware
attack.
Return of Capital to Shareholders
During the second
quarter, the Company repurchased 4.0 million shares for
$296 million at an average price of
$73.52 under its share repurchase
program. As of June 30, 2021, there
was $2.3 billion remaining under the
current share repurchase authorization. In July 2021, the Company declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.24 per share for
shareholders of record on August 20,
2021. This dividend will be payable on August 31, 2021.
"Second quarter top-line results exceeded our guidance, driven
by improved demand for our services and momentum in our digital
revenue, and we increased our full-year 2021 revenue growth to
10.2-11.2%," said Jan Siegmund,
Chief Financial Officer. "To meet the strong client demand for our
services, we have continued to scale our recruiting capabilities
and invest in our people."
Third Quarter and Full Year 2021 Outlook
The Company
provided the following guidance:
- Third quarter revenue is expected to be $4.69-$4.74
billion, or growth of 10.6-11.6% (10.0-11.0% in CC).
- Full year 2021 revenue is expected to be $18.4-$18.5
billion, or growth of 10.2-11.2% (9.0-10.0% in CC).
- Full year 2021 Adjusted Operating Margin[2] is expected to be
approximately 15.4%.
- Full year 2021 Adjusted Diluted EPS2 is expected to
be in the range of $4.00-$4.06.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Performance
Metrics
To supplement our financial results presented in
accordance with GAAP, this press release includes references to the
following measures defined by the Securities and Exchange
Commission as non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted Income From
Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Diluted EPS, free
cash flow, net cash and constant currency revenue growth. 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. In addition, these non-GAAP
financial measures should be read in conjunction with our financial
statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliations of
our non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures
should be carefully evaluated.
Our non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted Operating Margin,
Adjusted Income From Operations and Adjusted Diluted EPS exclude
unusual items. Additionally, Adjusted Diluted EPS excludes net
non-operating foreign currency exchange gains or losses and the tax
impact of all the applicable adjustments. The income tax impact of
each item is calculated by applying the statutory rate and local
tax regulations in the jurisdiction in which the item was incurred.
Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities
net of purchases of property and equipment. Net cash is defined as
cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments less
short-term and long-term debt. Constant currency revenue growth is
defined as revenues for a given period restated at the comparative
period's foreign currency exchange rates measured against the
comparative period's reported revenues.
Management believes providing investors with an operating
view consistent with how we manage the Company provides enhanced
transparency into our operating results. For our internal
management reporting and budgeting purposes, we use various GAAP
and non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational
decision-making, to evaluate period-to-period comparisons, to
determine portions of the compensation for our executive officers
and for making comparisons of our operating results to those of our
competitors. Therefore, it is our belief that the use of non-GAAP
financial measures excluding certain costs provides a meaningful
supplemental measure for investors to evaluate our financial
performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of our
non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our reported GAAP
results, can provide useful supplemental information to our
management and investors regarding financial and business trends
relating to our financial condition and results of
operations.
A limitation of using non-GAAP financial measures versus
financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP is that
non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect all of the amounts
associated with our operating results as determined in accordance
with GAAP and may exclude costs that are recurring such as our net
non-operating foreign currency exchange gains or losses. In
addition, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures
differently than us, thereby limiting the usefulness of these
non-GAAP financial measures as a comparative tool. We compensate
for these limitations by providing specific information regarding
the GAAP amounts excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures to
allow investors to evaluate such non-GAAP financial
measures.
Bookings are defined as total contract value (or TCV) of new
contracts, including new contract sales as well as renewals and
expansions of existing contracts. Bookings can vary significantly
quarter to quarter depending in part on the timing of the signing
of a small number of large contracts. Our book-to-bill ratio is
defined as bookings for the trailing twelve months divided by
revenue for the same period. Measuring bookings involves the use of
estimates and judgments and there are no independent standards or
requirements governing the calculation of bookings. The extent and
timing of conversion of bookings to revenues may be impacted by,
among other factors, the types of services and solutions sold,
contract duration, the pace of client spending, actual volumes of
services delivered as compared to the volumes anticipated at the
time of sale, and contract modifications, including terminations,
over the lifetime of a contract. The majority of our contracts are
terminable by the client on short notice often without penalty, and
some without notice. We do not update our bookings for material
subsequent terminations or reductions related to bookings
originally recorded in prior year periods or foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations. Information regarding our bookings is
not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of
our reported revenues. However, management believes that it is a
key indicator of potential future revenues and provides a useful
indicator of the volume of our business over time.
We disclose digital revenue as management believes it
provides additional insights into the Company's business. Measuring
digital revenue requires the use of estimates and judgement, there
are no independent standards or requirements governing the
calculation and our calculation may differ from the calculations
underlying similar such metrics disclosed by other
companies.

Notes:
|
(a)
|
As part of the
realignment program, during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2020, we incurred certain retention costs and
professional fees. The total costs related to the realignment
plan are reported in "Restructuring charges" in our unaudited
consolidated statement of operations.
|
(b)
|
As part of our 2020
Fit for Growth plan, during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2020, we incurred certain employee separation,
employee retention and facility exit costs and other charges. The
total costs related to the 2020 Fit for Growth Plan are reported in
"Restructuring charges" in our unaudited consolidated statement of
operations.
|
(c)
|
During the three and
six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred costs in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including a one-time bonus to
our employees at the designation of associate and below in both
India and the Philippines, certain costs to enable our employees to
work remotely and costs to provide medical staff and extra cleaning
services for our facilities. Substantially all of the costs related
to the pandemic are reported in "Cost of revenues" in our unaudited
consolidated statement of operations.
|
(d)
|
Non-operating foreign
currency exchange gains and losses, inclusive of gains and losses
on related foreign exchange forward contracts not designated as
hedging instruments for accounting purposes, are reported in
"Foreign currency exchange gains (losses), net" in our unaudited
consolidated statements of operations. Non-operating foreign
currency exchange gains and losses are subject to high variability
and low visibility and therefore cannot be provided on a
forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts.
