1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of iGATE Corporation (“iGATE” or the “Company”) have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normally recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

The accompanying balance sheet and financial information as of December 31, 2009 is derived from audited financial statements but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Principles of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Under the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, our subsidiary iGATE Global Solutions Ltd. (“iGS”) is eligible to claim a tax holiday for ten consecutive assessment years on profits derived from the export of software services from divisions registered under the Software Technology Parks at Bangalore and Noida. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the tax holiday benefits were $3.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively, as compared to $2.0 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, when calculated at the statutory US rate. The majority of the remaining benefits will extend through March 2011. Non-operating income, such as interest income and capital gains income along with operating income to the extent of expiry of tax holiday is not included in the tax holiday, and has been considered as part of our income tax provision.

In 2009, iGS set up units in Chennai and Hyderabad Special Economic Zone (“SEZ”). Under the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, iGS is eligible to claim income tax holiday of 100% for the initial five consecutive assessment years followed by 50% for the subsequent ten consecutive assessment years on the profits derived from the export of software services from the divisions registered under the SEZ. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the tax holiday resulted in income tax benefits of $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, when calculated at the US statutory rates.

4. Earnings Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per share” and ASC Topic 260-10-45 “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities”. Basic earnings per share for the two classes of stock (common stock and unvested restricted stock) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and unvested restricted stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common stock and unvested restricted stock plus the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents

7. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

As part of the Company’s on-going business operations, certain assets and forecasted transactions are exposed to foreign currency risks due to fluctuations in exchange rate between the Rupee, CAD and USD. The objective for holding derivatives is to eliminate or reduce the impact of these exposures.

The Company enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on inter-company transactions and forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are designated as cash flow hedges if they satisfy the criteria for hedge accounting under ASC Topic 815 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss of hedging instruments are recognized in the earnings of each period and are included in other income (expense), net.

The Company documents all relationships between hedging instruments including the risk management objectives and strategy for each hedge transaction. In addition, formal assessment is done for effectiveness testing both at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis. If it is determined that a derivative or a portion thereof is not highly effective as a hedge, or if a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, the Company will prospectively discontinue hedge accounting with respect to that derivative.

In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative is retained, the derivative is continued to be carried at its fair value on the balance sheet and any subsequent change in its fair value is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

8. Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements” establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — Includes other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company measures cash equivalents, short term investments, non convertible debentures and foreign currency derivative contracts at fair value. Cash equivalents and short term investments are primarily classified within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because the cash equivalents and short term investments are valued primarily using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. The foreign currency derivative contracts and non convertible debentures are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments in active markets or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs.

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements” provides additional guidance on estimating fair value when the volume and level of transaction activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. The ASC Topic 820 also provides additional guidance on circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. The application of ASC Topic 820 did not have a significant impact on earnings or the financial position for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that are required to make disclosure about the recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. An entity is required to disclose the amounts of significant amount of transfers in, out and valuation techniques of level 1, level 2 and level 3 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and also present separately the information about the purchases, sales, issuance and settlements in significant unobservable inputs in level 3 on gross basis. The guidance provided in this ASU is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Company adopted this ASU and noted that it did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statements.

9. Employee Benefits

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company’s eligible employees in India participate in the Employees’ Provident Fund (the “Provident Fund”), which is a defined contribution plan. The employee and the Company make monthly contributions of a specified percentage of salary to the Provident Fund, which is administered by the prescribed authority in India. The aggregate contributions along with interest thereon are paid at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment. The Company’s contribution to the Provident Fund for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The Company’s contribution for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 it was $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

401(k) Plan

Eligible United States employees of the Company participate in an employee retirement savings plan (“the Plan”) under Section 401(k) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The Plan allows for employees to defer a portion of their annual earnings on a pre-tax basis through voluntary contributions to the Plan. The Plan does not provide for any Company matching.

Defined Benefit Plan

The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees in India. The plan provides a lump sum payment to the vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment subject to specified period of service, of an amount based on the respective employees’ salary and the tenure of employment. Liabilities with regard to the plan are determined by actuarial valuation. The contributions are made to the Company administered trust and managed by a third party fund manager.

The following table sets forth the net periodic cost recognized by the Company in respect of such plan.

13. Commitments

Capital commitments

As of June 30, 2010, the Company has open purchase orders totaling $ 5.6 million to purchase property and equipment.

Bank guarantees

As of June 30, 2010, guarantees provided by banks on behalf of iGS to customs authorities aggregated to $0.4 million. These guarantees have a remaining expiry term of approximately one to two years.

Other commitments

The Company’s business process delivery centers in India are 100% Export Oriented units or Software Technology Parks of India units (“STPI”) under the STPI guidelines issued by the Government of India. These units are exempted from customs, central excise duties, and levies on imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares. The Company has executed legal undertakings to pay custom duty, central excise duty, levies, and liquidated damages payable, if any, in respect of imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares consumed duty free, in the event that certain terms and conditions are not fulfilled.

The Company has entered into a service agreement with a customer that provides a customer the option, exercisable at any time by providing 60 days’ notice to the Company to acquire an equity stake of up to 7% of the outstanding voting shares at fair market value. The fair market value is the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s shares on the NASDAQ National Market for the five consecutive trading days immediately before the date on which the customer delivers its notice under the option. The option does not restrict the customer in any way from buying the Company shares in the open market.

14. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13 “Revenue recognition—Multiple deliverable revenue arrangements”. The ASU provides amendments to the criteria in “Revenue recognition—multiple element arrangements” for separating consideration in multiple element arrangements. The amendments in this ASU establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. Further, the term fair value in the revenue guidance will be replaced with selling price to clarify that the allocation of revenue is based on entity-specific assumptions rather than assumptions of a market place participant. The amendments in this ASU will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU.

15. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of filing the financial statements and no events have occurred from the balance sheet date that would impact the Consolidated Financial Statements.

iGATE markets its service offerings to large and medium-sized organizations. Certain contracts are based upon a fixed price with payment based upon deliverables and/or project milestones reached. Certain contracts are time-and-materials based where contract payments are based on the number of consultant hours worked on the project. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables have a designated workforce and are based on fixed periodic payments. Some process outsourcing contracts provide pricing per transaction. Customers typically have the right to cancel contracts with minimal notice. Contracts with deliverables or project milestones can provide for certain penalties if the deliverables or project milestones are not met within contract timelines.

iGATE services customers in a wide range of industries. Our largest customer is Royal Bank of Canada which accounted for approximately 35% and 24% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The following paragraph discusses recently issued accounting pronouncements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13 “Revenue recognition—Multiple deliverable revenue arrangements” . The ASU provides amendments to the criteria in “Revenue recognition—multiple element arrangements” for separating consideration in multiple element arrangements. The amendments in this ASU establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. Further, the term fair value in the revenue guidance will be replaced with selling price to clarify that the allocation of revenue is based on entity-specific assumptions rather than assumptions of a market place participant. The amendments in this ASU will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2009:

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $66.8 million, an increase of $20.0 million, or 42.7%, as compared to $46.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our revenue increase for the periods presented is directly attributable to a combination of increased business with our recurring customers, favorable movement in currency markets and new customer wins. There was an increase in average billable headcount from 5,922 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to 7,432 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Revenues increased due to the favorable movement in currency markets by 5.4%, increased volume by 32.9% and increased average blended realization rate by 4.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our top five customers accounted for 72.5% and 70.0% of the revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The gross margin as a percentage of sales (“gross margin percentage”) was 38.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to 38.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) include all costs that are not directly associated with revenue-generating activities. S,G&A expenses include employee costs, corporate costs and facilities costs. Employee costs include selling, marketing and administrative salaries and related employee benefits, travel, recruiting and training costs. Corporate costs include costs such as legal, accounting and outside consulting fees. Facilities costs primarily include rent and communications costs.

S,G&A costs for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $11.8 million or 17.7% of revenues, as compared to $8.9 million or 18.9% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our net employee cost increased by $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to three months ended June 30, 2009, mainly due to an increase in salaries, bonus and benefits of $1.5 million, recruitment expense of $0.5 million, and travel expense and related costs of $0.3 million. Our net corporate cost increased by $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 due to increase in outside professional services, legal costs, marketing, accounting, insurance and administrative charges. Our net facilities costs increased by $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, mainly due to increase in rental and communication related expenses. The increase in S,G&A cost includes an unfavorable movement of the US Dollar against other currencies amounting to $0.4 million.

Depreciation and amortization costs for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $2.1 million or 3.2% of revenues, as compared to $1.9 million or 4.0% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Operating income was 17.2% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 15.3% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2009. This increase was primarily due to the increased revenue and operational efficiency.

Our investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $0.7 million as compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. In 2010, our investments have been primarily in a dividend yielding money market mutual fund. The Net Asset Value of the units tends to decrease on payment of the dividends leading to a loss on redemption of the units which has been compensated by the dividend income. In 2009, the investments were primarily in a high yield interest bearing fixed income securities.

Other income is primarily comprised of the favorable foreign currency movements resulting in the reduction of the realized loss on our hedges amounting to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

Our income tax provision was $1.3 million and $0.1 million at an effective rate of 10.5% and 2.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Several items caused variations from our statutory tax rate to the effective rate. iGS is eligible to claim a tax holiday on the majority of its operating income through March 31, 2011. Federal income taxes, calculated at the U.S. statutory rate, totaled $4.4 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Federal income taxes and the effective tax rate increased mainly due to higher income in USA.

Taxable income for determining the income tax provision of iGS includes non operating income, such as interest income and capital gains income and operating income of two units for which the tax holiday has expired. The tax holiday has resulted in a benefit of $4.1 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Due to the tax rate variation in the foreign countries as compared to the US tax rate, our foreign operations resulted in a tax benefit of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Other variations typically arise because certain expenses or benefits recorded in our financial statements are either limited or disallowed when calculating our income tax provision. Certain expenses such as meals and entertainment are limited for income tax purposes. Carry forward of NOLs will offset taxable income. The impact of the limited or disallowed items and benefit of losses discussed above was $1.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2009:

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $124.7 million, an increase of $33.1 million, or 36.1%, as compared to $91.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our revenue increase for the periods presented is directly attributable to a combination of increased business with our recurring customers, favorable movement in currency markets and new customer wins. There was an increase in average billable headcount from 6,026 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to 7,069 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Revenues increased due to the favorable movement in currency markets by 6.8%, increased volume by 27.5% and increased average blended realization rate by 1.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our top five customers accounted for 72.6% and 69.1% of the revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The gross margin as a percentage of sales (“gross margin percentage”) was 39.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to 37.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily on account of favorable movement of the US Dollar against other currencies.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) include all costs that are not directly associated with revenue-generating activities. S,G&A expenses include employee costs, corporate costs and facilities costs. Employee costs include selling, marketing and administrative salaries and related employee benefits, travel, recruiting and training costs. Corporate costs include costs such as legal, accounting and outside consulting fees. Facilities costs primarily include rent and communications costs.

S,G&A costs for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $21.8 million or 17.5% of revenues, as compared to $17.4 million or 19.0% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our net employee cost increased by $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to six months ended June 30, 2009, mainly due to increase in salaries, bonus and benefits by $2.0 million , recruitment expense of $0.6 million, and travel and related costs of $0.6 million. Our net corporate cost increased by $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 due to increase in outside professional services, legal, accounting and administrative charges which was partly offset by a decrease in provision for doubtful debts. Our net facilities costs increased by $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, mainly due to the increase in rental expense. The increase in S,G&A cost includes an unfavorable movement of the US Dollar against other currencies amounting to $1.0 million.

The unfavorable foreign currency loss related to our intercompany debt in India and the remeasurement of the current assets denominated in the foreign currency, amounting to $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the favourable foreign currency gain of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Seasonality

Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants’ billable hours are affected by national holidays and vacation policies, which vary by country and by operating company.

Economic Trends and Outlook

According to the latest report by Gartner Inc., an IT research and advisory company, the Global IT Services industry with worldwide IT spending revised its forecast to total $786 billion in 2010, a 2.9 % increase from 2009 revenue of nearly $763 billion.

With a global economic recovery widely anticipated, modest growth in IT spending is expected. The industry is aggressively pursuing innovations that it expects to stimulate demand beyond such modest growth. A majority of our business comes from the United States and Canada. The situation has improved now with quarter on quarter revenue growth in the last five quarters. We believe that our business model is somewhat diversified, both geographically and operationally—we serve both IT and IT enabled solutions. We believe our strategy of a global delivery model positions us well to provide a greater breadth of services in catering to market needs and opportunities.
