WNS Announcement on First Magnus
MUMBAI, INDIA, and NEW YORK, August 16, 2007 WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE: WNS), a leading
provider of offshore business process outsourcing (BPO) services announced today that following its
earnings call earlier today it was verbally advised by First Magnus Financial Corporation, one of
its customers in the mortgage business, that they expect to stop substantially all work WNS does
for them. First Magnus was expected to account for approximately 5% of WNSs revenue less repair
payments for the period between 1 July 2007 and 31 March 2008. WNS expects that this event will
have a material adverse impact on its financial performance and the guidance it had issued earlier
today. WNS is in the process of evaluating the impact
of these events in detail and will release revised guidance as soon as
possible.
