EXL REPORTS 2019 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
2019 First Quarter Revenues of $239.6 Million, up 15.8% year-over-year
Q1 Diluted EPS (GAAP) of $0.42, down from $0.66 in Q1 of 2018
Q1 Adjusted Diluted EPS (Non-GAAP) of $0.71, up from $0.65 in Q1 of 2018
New York, NY - April 30, 2019 - ExlService Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXLS), a leading operations management and analytics company, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Rohit Kapoor, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “EXL generated revenues of $239.6 million during the first quarter of 2019, up 15.8% year-over-year. EXL’s revenues growth was led by a 52.3% increase in Analytics revenues, driven by an 18.8% increase in organic revenues and the acquisition of SCIOinspire Holdings, Inc. Analytics represents 36.3% of EXL’s revenues.
“We have begun 2019 with good momentum. Our success is based upon a strong culture of adopting rapidly changing technology to deliver valuable sustainable productivity to our clients. Our growth has been propelled through a focus on being the strategic digital transformation partner for our clients, as well as our Operations Management excellence and leadership position in Analytics. Digital Intelligence, our differentiated strategy and approach for digital transformation, represents the next step in our ability to improve revenue growth, profitability and end customer experience for our clients. We are positioned for a strong 2019 and beyond.”
On April 4, 2019, EXL announced it commenced the process of substantially winding down the operations of the Health Integrated business, which is reported within our Healthcare reportable segment. It is anticipated that the wind down process will be substantially completed by the end of 2019.
Vishal Chhibbar, Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are revising our revenue guidance for 2019 to $969 million - $996 million from $975 million - $1 billion to reflect the decrease in revenue from Health Integrated to $10 million - $14 million from our previous forecast of $16 million - $18 million. Our guidance represents annual revenue growth of 10% to 13% on a constant currency basis. Our adjusted diluted EPS guidance for 2019 is being revised to $2.83 - $2.98 to reflect the higher operating losses of Health Integrated of $0.23 - $0.27 from $0.16 - $0.20 and does not factor any wind-down expenses. Our balance sheet remains strong with cash and short-term investments of $303 million on March 31, 2019.”
Financial Highlights: First Quarter 2019
We have six reportable segments: Insurance, Healthcare, Travel, Transportation & Logistics, Finance & Accounting, All Other (consisting of our Banking & Financial Services, Utilities and Consulting operating segments) and Analytics. Reconciliations of adjusted (non-GAAP) financial measures to GAAP measures are included at the end of this release.

______________________
(1) Impairment charge refers to goodwill and intangible assets impairment related to our Health Integrated acquisition which we recorded during the quarter and year ended December 31, 2018. The primary factors contributing to an impairment charge were i) revenues and profitability for the Health Integrated business in 2018 were significantly lower than our budget and ii) significant changes to the Company’s estimated future cash flows and long-term growth assumptions driven by loss of customer contracts, cost pressures and the Company’s most recent views of the long-term outlook for the Health Integrated business.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures to GAAP Measures
In addition to its reported operating results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), EXL has included in this release certain financial measures that are considered non-GAAP financial measures, including the following:
(i)Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin;
(ii)Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin;
(iii)Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share; and
(iv)Revenue growth on a constant currency basis.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, 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, the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. EXL believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures may help investors better understand EXL’s underlying financial performance. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with EXL’s reported results, can provide useful supplemental information for investors analyzing period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s results and comparisons of the Company’s results with the results of other companies. Additionally, management considers some of these non-GAAP financial measures to determine variable compensation of its employees. The Company believes that it is unreasonably difficult to provide its earnings per share financial guidance 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 Topic 718, the amortization of intangibles associated with further acquisitions and the currency fluctuations and associated tax impacts. As such, the Company presents guidance with respect to adjusted diluted earnings per share. The Company also incurs significant non-cash charges for depreciation that may not be indicative of the Company’s ability to generate cash flow.
EXL non-GAAP financial measures exclude, where applicable, stock-based compensation expense, provision for litigation settlement, non-cash interest expense on convertible senior notes and acquisition-related expenses. Acquisition-related expenses include, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, changes in the fair value of earn-out consideration liabilities, impairment charges of acquired intangible assets including goodwill and other acquisition-related costs and benefits such as external deal costs, integration expenses, direct and incremental travel costs and non-recurring benefits. In addition to excluding the above items, our adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS also excludes the effect of incremental income tax expense related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Reform Act”), non-recurring other tax adjustments and income tax impact of the above pre-tax items, as applicable. 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.
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 exclude costs that are recurring, namely stock-based compensation and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. EXL compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP financial measures to allow investors to evaluate such non-GAAP financial measures.
Effective second quarter of 2018, EXL excludes other acquisition-related costs such as external deal costs, integration expenses and direct and incremental travel costs pertaining to successful acquisitions from its non-GAAP financial measures, wherever applicable. Considering EXL’s frequent acquisitions of varying scale and size, and the difficulty in predicting expenses relating to acquisitions, EXL’s management believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons from period-to-period and between EXL’s operating results and those of other companies. Other acquisition-related costs are excluded in the period in which an acquisition is consummated. To facilitate comparison, the previously reported periods presented have been adjusted with the effects of the exclusion of these other acquisition-related costs.
The information provided on a constant currency basis reflects a comparison of current period results translated at the prior period currency rates. This information is provided because EXL believes that it provides useful comparative incremental information to investors regarding EXL’s true operating performance. EXL’s primary exchange rate exposure is with the Indian Rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine Peso. The average exchange rate of the U.S. Dollar against the Indian Rupee increased from 64.64 during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 to 70.32 during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing a depreciation of 8.8%. The average exchange rate of the U.S. Dollar against the Philippine Peso increased from 51.85 during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 to 52.11 during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing a depreciation of 0.5%. The average exchange rate of the British Pound against the U.S. Dollar decreased from 1.40 during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 to 1.32 during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing a depreciation of 6.1%.
The following table shows the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, and the three months ended December 31, 2018:
