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 less repair payments* in the fiscal fourth quarter was $122.7 million, representing an 8.9% increase versus the fourth quarter of last year and a 2.6% increase from the previous quarter. Year-over-year, revenue improvement was broad-based with the growth rate paced by strength in the Shipping & Logistics, Utilities, Insurance (including Autoclaims) and Banking & Financial Services verticals. On both a year-over-year and sequential basis, revenue favorability resulting from appreciation in the British Pound against the US dollar was partially offset by depreciation in the South African rand and Australian dollar against the US dollar. Excluding exchange rate impacts, constant currency revenue less repair payments* in the fourth quarter grew 7.8% year-over-year and 1.8% sequentially.

Adjusted operating margin* for the quarter was 19.1%, as compared to 15.8% in Q4 of last year, and 18.4% reported in the third quarter. On a year-over-year basis, operating margin improved as a result of depreciation in the Indian rupee against the US dollar, improved productivity and operating leverage associated with higher revenue. Partially offsetting this favorability were investments in global infrastructure which reduced seat utilization and the impact of our annual wage increases. The sequential improvement in adjusted operating margin* from Q3 to Q4 was largely driven by exchange rate favorability.

Adjusted net income (ANI)* in the fiscal fourth quarter was $20.9 million, up $5.2 million as compared to Q4 of last year and up $1.1 million from the previous quarter. Fourth quarter ANI* margin was 17.1%, as compared to 14.0% in Q4 of last year, and 16.6% reported last quarter.

From a balance sheet perspective, WNS ended the fiscal fourth quarter with $146.2 million in cash and investments and $84.7 million of gross debt. In the fourth quarter, the company generated $25.4 million in cash from operations, and had $3.3 million in capital expenditures. Days sales outstanding were 30 days, as compared to 33 days in Q4 of last year and 31 days reported in the previous quarter.

“In the fourth quarter, WNS continued to make progress in adding new clients, strengthening our existing relationships and building the new business pipeline. We successfully signed our fifth large deal of the year, and the pipeline for large opportunities remains robust. Overall, we are pleased with WNS’s performance in fiscal 2014, as the company was able to post healthy revenue growth, expand margins and profits, improve cash flow and solidify the balance sheet. Full year reported revenue less repair payments* grew 8.1%, which represented 8.5% growth on a constant currency* basis. Our adjusted operating margins* for the full year came in at 17.0%, and adjusted net income* grew 36.3% to $72.4 million, or $1.37 per diluted share. We are confident that the company remains on the right track to differentiate our position in the market, and generate substantial business value for all our key stakeholders in the coming years,” said Keshav Murugesh, WNS’s Chief Executive Officer.

“As we enter fiscal 2015, the demand environment for BPM services remains stable and healthy. WNS will, however, face revenue headwinds which are incremental to our normal business volume and productivity pressures. These include the rapid transition of a large online travel agency (OTA) client to another OTA pursuant to a strategic marketing agreement, and expected pricing and productivity headwinds from a proposed five plus year contract extension with a major client. Despite these short-term challenges, WNS is encouraged by our underlying business momentum and competitive positioning. In 2015, the company plans to continue our investment programs designed to drive long-term sustainable business value for our key stakeholders, with the ongoing objective of growing revenue and maintaining profit margins at or above industry levels.”

Fiscal 2015 Guidance

WNS has provided guidance for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 as follows:

 

    Revenue less repair payments* is expected to be between $490 million and $520 million, up from $471.5 million in fiscal 2014. This assumes an average GBP to USD exchange rate of 1.66 versus 1.59 in fiscal 2014.

 

    ANI* is expected to range between $77 million and $83 million, up from $72.4 million in fiscal 2014. This assumes an average USD to INR exchange rate of 60.0 versus 60.4 in fiscal 2014. Based on a diluted share count of 53.3 million shares, the company expects adjusted diluted earnings* per ADS to be in the range of $1.44 to $1.56.

“The company has provided our initial forecast for fiscal 2015 based on current visibility levels and exchange rates. Our guidance for the year reflects top line growth of 4% to 10%, which represents 1% to 7% revenue growth on a constant currency* basis. Consistent with previous year’s guidance, we enter fiscal 2015 with 90% visibility to the midpoint of the range. Profitability is again expected to expand faster than revenue this fiscal year, with our ANI* guidance reflecting 6% to 15% year-over-year improvement,” said Sanjay Puria, WNS’s Chief Financial Officer.

Effective April 30, 2014, independent Director Eric B. Herr will retire from the WNS Board of Directors.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial information in this release is focused on non-GAAP financial measures as we believe that they reflect more accurately our operating performance. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to our GAAP operating results are included below. A discussion of our GAAP measures will be contained in “Part I –Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and our fiscal 2014 audited financial statements will be included elsewhere in our annual report on Form 20-F to be filed with the SEC in due course.

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 2, 2013.

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 other non-GAAP measures included in this release as supplemental measures of its performance. WNS presents these non-GAAP 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 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 measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for WNS’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS.
