Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures:

Adjusted income from operations;Adjusted income from operations margin;Adjusted diluted earnings per share; andRevenue growth 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.

Given Genpact’s acquisitions of varying scale and size, and the difficulty in predicting expenses relating to acquisitions and the amortization of acquired intangibles thereof, since July 2012 Genpact’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, since April 2016, Genpact’s management has excluded 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.

During the second quarter of 2022, Genpact approved a plan to divest a business that was no longer deemed strategic. Given the specialized nature of this business, we anticipated completing a transaction within twelve months after the end of the second quarter of 2022, and therefore, we classified the revenues and expenses related to this business as held for sale with effect from April 1, 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company consummated this transaction and recorded a loss on the sale of the business.  During the second quarter of 2023, the Company terminated a lease for office property which was fully impaired as part of a restructuring in the second quarter of 2022 and recorded a gain on such lease termination as restructuring income in the second quarter of 2023. Genpact’s management believes that excluding the loss on the sale of, and the revenues and expenses associated with, the business previously designated as held for sale and the gain on the lease termination in calculating its non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to both management and investors regarding the Company’s financial performance and underlying business trends. Additionally, in its calculations of non-GAAP financial measures, Genpact’s management has adjusted foreign exchange gains and losses, interest income and expense and income tax expenses from GAAP net income, and other income and expenses, and certain gains from GAAP income from operations, because management believes that the Company’s results after taking into account these adjustments more accurately reflect the Company’s ongoing operations. In its calculations of adjusted diluted earnings per share, Genpact’s management adds back stock-based compensation expense, amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses and the related tax impact of such adjustments from GAAP diluted earnings per share. 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 the revenues may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations compared to prior fiscal periods, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s true business performance. Revenue growth on a constant currency basis 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.

Accordingly, Genpact believes that the presentation of adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share and revenue growth 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, income from operations margin, net income and net income margin calculated in accordance with GAAP is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain recurring costs and certain other charges, namely stock-based compensation expense and amortization and impairment of acquired intangible assets. 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 non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024:

How the Top 10% of CTOs Drive Meaningful Business Growth

Published

on

By

Only a shocking 10% of CTOs will drive value for their organizations, according to a recent Forester prediction. By understanding how the top 10% of CTOs have reshaped their role, this article discusses how aspiring trailblazers can shift their perspectives and priorities to join the elite ranks of tech leaders.

SAINT PAUL, Minn., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Forrester experts have made a prediction that should be a resounding wake-up call for tech leaders: only 10% of CTOs will actually drive business growth. For the other 90%, the risk is clear—CTOs who fail to demonstrate their value will quickly be replaced by ones who can.

Elite tech leaders serve as thought leaders and pioneers within their own field. As such, the top 10% of CTOs today focus on claiming competitive advantages through the use of emerging technologies. – Inkit CEO Michael McCarthy

What exactly defines this new breed of tech leader, and what are these elite CTOs doing differently to drive growth? Here are the three essential practices that differentiate the good from the great CTOs today.

They Focus on Scale

Successful CTOs align their strategies with overall business goals, using automation and integrated technologies to scale other departments. By implementing centralized tools that standardize data, unify analytics, and automate tedious processes like lead scoring, follow-ups, relationship management, and contract management, elite CTOs are empowering RevOps, sales, and marketing teams to optimize every step of the sales funnel, reach more potential leads, and close deals faster.

However, for the top 10% of CTOs, successfully driving growth is not a solo endeavor. They know that leadership buy-in determines future outcomes for any digital transformation initiative.

They Work Closely with Other CxOs

According to Gartner, by co-leading initiatives with their fellow CxOs, CTOs are twice as likely to meet or exceed expected ROIs for digital technology investments. This involves creating cross-department teams that share responsibilities for technology rollouts, pool resources, and lend vertical-specific knowledge to ensure the most efficient and valuable outcomes. Co-leadership structured engagements also have the potential to uncover new areas for improvement and enhance organizational collaboration and culture.

While working with CxOs unlocks new opportunities within these non-tech domains, elite tech leaders serve as thought leaders and pioneers within their own field. As such, the top 10% of CTOs today focus on claiming competitive advantages through the use of emerging technologies.

If There’s New Tech, They’re Already Using It

Another prediction from the Forrester report indicates that enterprise AI initiatives will boost productivity and creative problem-solving by 50% in 2024. Similarly, Generative AI has become a popular tool to simplify user interfaces and serve as a digital assistant within complicated tools. CTOs are hurrying to adopt AI before their competitors, and businesses today are quick to announce their implementation of next-gen technologies that claim to improve their products with new, dazzling features—but the top 10% of CTOs have assessed these new technologies well before the rest.

Document generation (i.e., DocGen) and digital signatures are another technology on the radar for many top CTOs. Regarded as a vital tool for automating digital workflows, DocGen empowers organizations to create, share, sign, and retain documents at scale. DocGen tools also help CTOs to automatically meet compliance requirements for security, data privacy, and retention policies across the entire organization with minimal training required.

Finally, for CTOs in retail, finance, cryptocurrency, and logistics, blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) technology allow for secure, autonomous machine-to-machine transactions that reduce operational complexity and open new avenues for innovation in smart automation.

Join the Elite CTOs Driving Business Growth

Top CTOs drive growth by strategically aligning advanced technologies with business goals through cross-functional teamwork. By evaluating emerging technologies like Generative AI, document generation, automation, and more, the top 10% of CTOs are successfully accelerating the pace of growth, innovation, and collaboration for their organizations.
