N.V. 'Tiger' Tyagarajan, Genpact's president and CEO, said, "In the third quarter, Genpact revenues, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin and cash flows from operations all increased year-over-year. Revenue growth was below our expectations. The three main drivers behind our lower than expected revenues were: foreign exchange headwinds impacting our non-U.S. dollar revenues significantly more than anticipated, continued reduction in our mortgage originations business related to softness in refinancing volumes in the U.S., and an increase in the value and proportion of large deals in our pipeline.  Although conversion to revenue in large, transformative deals takes significantly longer, these engagements are where we want to be and where the depth of our operational capabilities and benchmarks add the most value to our clients."

Revenues from Global Clients grew 12.7% over the third quarter of 2012. Business process management revenues from Global Clients grew by 10.4%, led by growth in the Insurance, Hi-Tech, Consumer Packaged Goods, Retail and Life Sciences verticals.

2013 Outlook

Tyagarajan continued, "As a result of lower than expected revenues and improved margins, we are reducing our revenue guidance and increasing our margin guidance.  For the full year 2013, we now expect revenues to be in a range of $2.12 – $2.13 billion and adjusted operating income margin to be in a range of 16.5% – 16.8%. Looking ahead, we continue to believe our addressable market is large and under-penetrated.  In order to capture a larger share of this market, we are targeting specific industry verticals, service lines and geographies where our offerings are truly differentiated and our ability to generate business impact is the greatest."

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:

• 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.

Prior to July 2012, Genpact's management used financial statements that excluded significant acquisition related expenses and amortization of related acquired intangibles 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 amortization of acquired intangibles thereof, since July 2012 Genpact's management uses 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 that of its competitors.

In addition to the above, Genpact's management uses financial statements that exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles at formation in 2004, expenses related to change of shareholding and capital restructuring (excluding expenses related to the credit facility) and withholding taxes relating to remittance of funds between subsidiaries to partly fund the payment of the special cash dividend in respect of capital restructuring. 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 all of the above expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between Genpact's operating results and those of other companies. Genpact also believes that it is unreasonably difficult to provide its financial outlook in accordance with GAAP for a number of reasons including, without limitation, its inability to predict its stock-based compensation expense under ASC 718, the amortization of intangibles associated with further acquisitions, acquisition related expenses and expenses related to change of shareholding and capital restructuring (excluding expenses related to the credit facility) and withholding taxes relating to remittance of funds between subsidiaries to partly fund the payment of the special cash dividend in respect of capital restructuring, if any. Accordingly, Genpact believes that the presentation of 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 adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income versus income from operations and net income calculated in accordance with GAAP is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude a recurring cost, namely stock-based compensation. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the GAAP amounts excluded from adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income.

The following tables show the reconciliation of these adjusted financial measures from GAAP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2013:
