Special Dividend Announced

Genpact expects to pay a special cash dividend to all shareholders of $2.24 per common share, or approximately $500 million in the aggregate. The dividend will be funded through a combination of balance sheet cash and incremental debt expected to be raised from institutional lenders. Genpact expects to establish and announce the record date, ex-dividend date and payment date for the special dividend during August and to pay the dividend by the end of the third quarter. Declaration and payment of the dividend is subject to the receipt of financing by Genpact on satisfactory terms.

Tyagarajan commented, "The management team regularly reviews our capital structure with the Board of Directors.  We generate substantial operating and free cash flow, have approximately $442 million of cash on our balance sheet and, taking into account the financial flexibility needed to continue to pursue acquisitions and organic growth initiatives, we concluded that a special dividend, funded in part by additional, modest leverage, would enhance shareholder value."

2012 Outlook

Tyagarajan continued, "We have delivered a terrific first half of the year, despite some softness around discretionary spending. In an uncertain macro-environment, we continue to expect full-year revenues to be in a range of $1.86 – $1.90 billion, and adjusted operating income margin in a range of 16% – 16.5%."

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 attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited, or adjusted diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP 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 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, amortization of acquired intangibles at formation in 2004, significant acquisition related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles on such acquisitions and expenses related to change of shareholding and capital restructuring, 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 ASC 718 "Compensation-Stock Compensation", 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, significant acquisition related expenses and amortization of acquired intangibles on such acquisitions and expenses related to change of shareholding and capital restructuring, 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 ASC 718, the amortization of intangibles associated with further acquisitions, significant acquisition related expenses and expenses related to change of shareholding and capital restructuring, 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.

A limitation of using non-GAAP adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income versus income from operations and net income attributable to shareholders of Genpact Limited 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.

The following tables show the reconciliation of these adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012:

Consultancy and legal fees relating to change of shareholding and capital restructuring amounting to $800 were omitted to be considered for the purposes of computing the adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income in the first quarter of 2012. Adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2012 should have been $71,579 and $47,782, respectively, after considering the above expenses. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2012 remain the same at $0.21.
