Our digital and millennial offerings and our transformational solutions are targeted towards helping our clients grow their revenue and accelerate cost reduction initiatives.”

We continue to position Virtusa for ongoing growth by making investments in revenue-generating activities and in strategic initiatives aimed at expanding our addressable market.”

 

Financial Outlook

 

Virtusa management provided the following current financial guidance:

 

·                  Third quarter fiscal 2016 revenue is expected to be in the range of $150 to $153 million. GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.39 to $0.41 and non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.54 to $0.56.

 

·                  Fiscal year 2016 revenue is expected to be in the range of $584.6 to $591.6 million. GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $1.57 to $1.63 and non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $2.15 to $2.21.

 

The Company’s third quarter and fiscal year 2016 diluted EPS both estimate an average share count of approximately 30.1 million, (assuming no further exercises of stock-based awards) and assume a stock price of $56.99, which was derived from the average closing price of the Company’s stock over the five trading days ended on October 30, 2015.  Deviations from this stock price may cause actual EPS to vary based on share dilution from Virtusa’s stock options and stock appreciation rights.

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial metrics as defined by Regulation G by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP financial metrics are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial metrics calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP metrics used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP metrics should be read in conjunction with Virtusa’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Virtusa believes the following financial metrics will provide additional insights to measure the operational performance of the business.

·                  Virtusa also presents the following consolidated statement of income metrics that exclude acquisition-related charges, stock-based compensation expense and foreign currency transaction gains and losses to provide further insights into the comparison of Virtusa’s operating results among the periods, as well as enhancing comparability with operating results of peer companies:

 

·                  Non-GAAP income from operations: income from operations, as reported on Virtusa’s consolidated statements of income, excluding stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related charges.

·                  Non-GAAP operating margin: non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of reported revenues.

·                  Non-GAAP net income: net income, as reported on Virtusa’s consolidated statements of income, excluding the tax adjusted impact of the following, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related charges and foreign currency transaction gains and losses.

·                  Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share: diluted earnings per share, as reported on Virtusa’s consolidated statements of income, excluding tax adjusted per share impact of the following, stock-based compensation, acquisition-related charges and foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
