Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures discussed below to our GAAP operating results are included at the end of this release. See also “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Revenue in the third quarter was $145.4 million, representing a 0.7% increase versus Q3 of last year and a 2.9% decrease from the previous quarter. Revenue less repair payments* in the third quarter was $139.8 million, an increase of 2.9% year-over-year and a reduction of 2.7% sequentially. Excluding exchange rate impacts, constant currency revenue less repair payments* in the fiscal third quarter grew 11.4% versus Q3 of last year, and reduced by 0.6% sequentially. Year-over-year, fiscal Q3 revenue was adversely impacted by depreciation in the British pound against the US dollar. This headwind was more than offset by revenue growth in the Healthcare, Shipping and Logistics, Retail/CPG, and Travel verticals, each of which expanded over 10% as compared to Q3 of last year. Sequentially, revenue was adversely impacted by currency headwinds net of hedging, projects which ended in fiscal Q2, and seasonality in the Travel vertical.
Operating margin in the third quarter was 14.2%, as compared to 13.4% in Q3 of last year and 10.2% reported in the previous quarter. On a year-over-year basis, margin improvement was driven by a step-down in amortization of intangible asset expense, reduced compensation costs associated with the India Payment of Bonus Act resulting from a one-time retroactive charge in Q3 of last year, and increased operating leverage from higher volumes. These benefits more than offset headwinds from the impact of our annual wage increases and currency movements net of hedging. Sequentially, margins expanded as a result of a step-down in amortization of intangible asset expense, hedging gains net of currency, and productivity improvements which more than offset costs associated with wage increases and reduced seat utilization.

Fiscal Q3 2017 WNS (Holdings) Limited |
Third quarter adjusted operating margin* was 21.3%, versus 22.1% in Q3 of last year and 19.8% last quarter. On a year-over-year basis, adjusted operating margin* reduced primarily due to the impact of our annual wage increases and currency movements net of hedging. These reductions were partially offset by the reduced year-over-year expense associated with the one-time catch up in India Payment of Bonus Act reported in Q3 of last year, and increased operating leverage from higher volumes. Sequentially, adjusted operating margin* improved for the same reasons discussed for GAAP operating margin, with the exception of changes related to amortization of intangible asset expense.
Profit in the fiscal third quarter was $18.0 million, as compared to $15.7 million in Q3 of last year and $12.6 million in the previous quarter. Adjusted net income (ANI)* in Q3 was $25.2 million, up $1.6 million as compared to Q3 of last year and up $3.2 million from the previous quarter. In addition to the explanations discussed above, fiscal third quarter profit and adjusted net income* increased by $1.0 million year-over-year and sequentially as a result of a one-time tax benefit resulting from a delivery location becoming profitable.
From a balance sheet perspective, WNS ended Q3 with $152.6 million in cash and investments and no debt. In the third quarter, the company generated $25.8 million in cash from operations, and had $3.4 million in capital expenditures. During Q3, WNS repurchased 1,054,556 ADSs at an average price of $28.00 per ADS, totaling $29.5 million. Days sales outstanding were 30 days, as compared to 28 days in Q3 of last year and 30 days reported in the previous quarter.
“In the fiscal third quarter, WNS continued to deliver solid revenue growth, margins and cash flow, and to strategically invest for the future. The company is leveraging our healthy balance sheet, having repurchased over one million shares of stock in Q3, and just last week announcing the acquisition of Denali Sourcing Services (Denali),” said Keshav Murugesh, WNS’s Chief Executive Officer. “Denali provides industry-leading capability and thought leadership in procurement BPM and, in combination with WNS’ existing Procure-to-Pay offerings, will enable us to deliver end-to-end, Source-to-Pay solutions. We expect this strategic asset will tap a high-growth, high-value area of BPM, provide a recurring US-based revenue stream, enable cross-selling opportunities, be accretive to earnings, and be leverageable across verticals.”
Fiscal 2017 Guidance
WNS is updating guidance for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017 as follows, assuming completion of our acquisition of Denali:
| • | Revenue less repair payments* is expected to be between $564 million and $568 million, up from $531.0 million in fiscal 2016. This assumes an average GBP to USD exchange rate of 1.24 for the remainder of fiscal 2017. |
| • | ANI* is expected to range between $90 million and $92 million versus $90.9 million in fiscal 2016. This assumes an average USD to INR exchange rate of 68.0 for the remainder of fiscal 2017. |
| • | Based on a diluted share count of 52.4 million shares, the company expects adjusted diluted earnings* per ADS to be in the range of $1.72 to $1.76 versus $1.69 in fiscal 2016. |
“The company has updated our forecast for fiscal 2017 based on current visibility levels and exchange rates,” said Sanjay Puria, WNS’s Chief Financial Officer. “Our revised guidance for the year reflects growth in revenue less repair payments* of 6% to 7%, or 13% to 14% on a constant currency* basis. Revenue guidance includes approximately $3 million dollars relating to the acquisition of Denali. We currently have over 99% visibility to the midpoint of the range.”

Fiscal Q3 2017 WNS (Holdings) Limited |
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial information in this release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe more accurately reflect our core operating performance. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to our GAAP operating results are included below. A more detailed discussion of our GAAP results is contained in “Part I –Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 12, 2016.
For financial statement reporting purposes, WNS has two reportable segments: WNS Global BPM and WNS Auto Claims BPM. Revenue less repair payments is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as (a) revenue less (b) in the auto claims business, payments to repair centers for “fault” repair cases where WNS acts as the principal in its dealings with the third party repair centers and its clients. WNS believes that revenue less repair payments for “fault” repairs reflects more accurately the value addition of the business process management services that it directly provides to its clients. For more details, please see the discussion in “Part I – Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Overview” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 12, 2016.
Constant currency revenue less repair payments is a non-GAAP financial measure. We present constant currency revenue less repair payments so that revenue less repair payments may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance. Constant currency revenue less repair payments is presented by recalculating prior period’s revenue less repair payments denominated in currencies other than in US dollars using the foreign exchange rate used for the latest period, without taking into account the impact of hedging gains/losses. Our non-US dollar denominated revenues include, but are not limited to, revenues denominated in pound sterling, South African rand, Australian dollar and euro.
WNS also presents (1) adjusted operating margin, which refers to adjusted operating profit (calculated as operating profit excluding amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation expense) as a percentage of revenue less repair payments, and (2) ANI, which is calculated as profit excluding amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation expense and including the tax effect thereon, and other non-GAAP financial measures included in this release as supplemental measures of its performance. WNS presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes they assist investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. In addition, it uses these non-GAAP financial measures (i) as a factor in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation and (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for WNS’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The company is not able to provide our forward-looking GAAP revenue, profit and earnings per ADS without unreasonable efforts for a number of reasons, including our inability to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the payments to repair centers, our future share-based compensation expense under IFRS 2 (Share Based payments), amortization of intangibles associated with future acquisitions, and currency fluctuations. As a result, any attempt to provide a reconciliation of the forward-looking GAAP financial measures (revenue, profit, earnings per ADS) to our forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures (revenue less repair payments*, ANI* and Adjusted diluted earnings* per ADS respectively) would imply a degree of likelihood that we do not believe is reasonable.

| (1) | The company applies GAAP methodologies in computing the tax impact on its non-GAAP ANI adjustments (including amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation expense). The company’s Non-GAAP tax expense is generally higher than its GAAP tax expense if the income subject to taxes is higher considering the effect of the items excluded from GAAP profit to arrive at Non-GAAP profit. |
