The Company’s clients are located principally in the United States of America (“U.S.”) and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)Basis of Preparation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of such statements for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated statements of income for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any subsequent period.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ExlService Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. The standalone financial statements of subsidiaries are fully consolidated on a line-by-line basis. Intra-group balances and transactions, and gains and losses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated while preparing consolidated financial statements.

Accounting policies of the respective individual subsidiary and associate are aligned wherever necessary, so as to ensure consistency with the accounting policies that are adopted by the Company under U.S. GAAP.

The Company’s investments in equity affiliates are initially recorded at cost and any excess purchase consideration paid over proportionate share of the fair value of the net assets of the investee at the acquisition date is recognized as goodwill. The proportionate share of net income or loss of the investee after its acquisition is recognized in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

EXLSERVICE HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(continued)

June 30, 2022

(In thousands, except per share amount and share count)

(b)Investments

The Company’s short-term investments consist of investments in mutual funds and those term deposits with more than three months of original maturity and less than twelve months of remaining maturity as of the reporting date, while long-term investments consist of term deposits with more than twelve months of remaining maturity as of the reporting date.

The Company’s investments in term deposits with financial institutions are measured and recognized at cost and approximate fair value. Interest earned on such investments is included in interest income.

The Company’s mutual fund investments are in debt funds invested in India. These investments are accounted for in accordance with the fair value option under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 825, Financial Instruments, (“Topic 825”). The fair value is represented by original cost on the acquisition date and the net asset value (“NAV”) as quoted, at each reporting period and any changes in fair value are included in other income/(loss), net. Gain or loss on the disposal of these investments is calculated using the weighted average cost of the investments sold or disposed and is included in other income/(loss), net.

(c)Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited consolidated statements of income during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best assessment of the current business environment, actual results may be different from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the unaudited consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, estimates of the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets and contingent consideration, purchase price allocation, including revenue projections and discount rate applied within the discounted cash flow model for business acquisitions, allowance for expected credit losses, the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations, the standalone selling price of performance obligations, and variable consideration in a customer contract, expected recoverability from customers with contingent fee arrangements,

estimated costs to complete fixed price contracts, recoverability of dues from statutory authorities, assets and obligations related to employee benefit plans, deferred tax valuation allowances, income-tax uncertainties and other contingencies, valuation of derivative financial instruments, assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation expense, assumptions used to determine the incremental borrowing rate to calculate lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, lease term to calculate amortization of ROU, depreciation and amortization periods, ~~purchase price allocation~~ and recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangibles.

As of June 30, 2021, the extent to which the global Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic (“COVID-19”) will ultimately impact the Company's business depends on numerous dynamic factors, which the Company still cannot reliably predict. As a result, many of the Company's estimates and assumptions herein required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve with respect to COVID-19, the Company’s estimates may materially change in future periods. Any changes in estimates are adjusted prospectively in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

~~(c)~~ Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, FASB issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as interbank offered rates and London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The ASU provides practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In ~~August 2020,~~October 2021, FASB issued ASU No. ~~2020-06,~~ 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for ~~Convertible Instruments~~Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This ASU provides guidance in Topic 805 to require the acquirer entity to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. Generally, this should result in an ~~Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU simplifies~~acquirer recognizing and measuring the ~~accounting for certain~~acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial ~~instruments~~statements, if the acquiree prepared financial statements in accordance with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU removes separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature and hence most of the instruments will be accounted for as a single model (either debt or equity). The ASU also states that entities must apply the if-converted method to all convertible instruments for calculation of diluted EPS and the treasury stock method is no longer available. An entity can use either a full or modified retrospective approach to adopt the ASU’s guidance.U.S. GAAP. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2021 and~~2022. An entity may be early ~~adopted for~~adopt the ASU including adoption in an interim period, with retrospective application to all business combinations within the fiscal ~~years beginning after December 15, 2020, and~~year that includes such interim ~~periods within those fiscal years.~~period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ~~adoption of~~ this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

~~(d) Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~In December 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12,~~ ~~Income TaxesSimplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes~~. This ASU eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this ASU has a minimal impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements.

~~In October 2020, FASB issued ASU No. 2020-10,~~ ~~Codification Improvements~~, to provide guidance for technical corrections such as conforming amendments, clarifications to guidance, simplifications to wording or structure of guidance, and other minor improvements. The amendments in this ASU improve the consistency of the ASC by ensuring that all guidance that requires or provides an option for an entity to provide information in the notes to financial statements is codified in the disclosure section of the ASC. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements.

~~In January 2021, Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-01,~~ ~~Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope~~, to expand the scope of Topic 848 to include derivative instruments affected by changes to the interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment (commonly referred to as the discounting transition). This ASU extends some of Topic 848’s optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting to derivative instruments impacted by discounting transition as a result of the discontinuation of the use of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate due to reference rate reform. This ASU is effective immediately for all entities with the option to be applied retrospectively as of any date from the beginning of an interim period

The Company does not allocate and therefore the CODM does not evaluate, certain operating expenses, interest expense or income taxes by segment. Many of the Company’s assets are shared by multiple operating segments. The Company manages these assets on a total Company basis, not by operating segment, and therefore asset information and capital expenditures by operating segment are not presented.

The December 2021 and June 2022 acquisition of Clairvoyant AI Inc. (“Clairvoyant”) and Inbound Media Group, LLC (“Inbound”), respectively, are both included in the Analytics reportable segment. Refer to Note 9 - Business Combination, Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further details.

Revenues and cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, for each of the reportable segments, are as follows:

Allowance for expected credit losses

The Company evaluates the credit risk of its customers based on a combination of various financial and qualitative factors that may affect the ability of each customer to pay. The Company considered current and anticipated future economic conditions relating to the industries of the Company’s customers and the countries where it operates. In calculating expected credit loss, the Company also considered past payment trends, credit rating and other related credit information for its

significant customers to estimate the probability of default in the future and estimates relating to the possible effects resulting from COVID-19.

The duration and severity of COVID-19 and continued market volatility is highly uncertain and, as such, the impact on expected losses is subject to significant judgment, including but not limited to changes in customers’ credit rating, and may cause variability in the Company’s allowance for credit losses in future periods.

5. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for outstanding shares that are subject to repurchase during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents (outstanding stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units) issued and outstanding at the reporting date, and an assumed conversion premium of outstanding convertible notes, using the treasury stock ~~method.~~method (as discussed further in the subsequent paragraph). Common stock equivalents ~~and the conversion premium of outstanding convertible notes~~ that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding. The Company includes performance stock unit awards in dilutive potential common shares when they become contingently issuable and have a dilutive impact per authoritative guidance and excludes such awards when they are not contingently issuable.

~~Diluted~~In 2021, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding iswas affected by the treatment of ~~our~~the Company’s 3.5% per annum Convertible Senior Notes due October 1, 2024 (the “Notes”). The Company ~~has~~had a choice to settle the Notes in cash, shares or any combination of the two. The Company ~~presently intends and has~~had the ability to settle the principal balance of the Notes in cash, and as such, the Company ~~has~~ applied the treasury stock method. The dilution related to the conversion premium, if any, of the Notes is included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the portion of the period until actual settlement and to the extent the issuance is dilutive based on the average stock price during the reporting period being greater than the conversion price of $75. ~~Refer to Note 17 - Borrowings to~~During the ~~unaudited consolidated financial statements~~third quarter of 2021, the Company settled the Notes by electing a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock and as such included the count of shares issued on settlement in the calculation of basic earnings per share for ~~further details.~~the portion of the period outstanding.

As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company believes 0no impairment exists because the long-lived asset's future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated exceeds its carrying value; however, there can be no assurances that long-lived assets will not be impaired in future periods. Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which undiscounted cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount, and the asset’s residual value, if any. It is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates described above could change in future periods. The duration and severity of COVID-19 and continued market volatility is highly uncertain and, as such, the impact on undiscounted cash flows is subject to significant judgment and may cause variability in the Company’s assessment of the existence of any impairment.

9. Business Combination, Goodwill and Intangible Assets

~~Goodwill~~Clairvoyant AI Inc.

On December 16, 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary ExlService.com, LLC (“Buyer”), completed the acquisition of Clairvoyant, a Delaware corporation, pursuant to an equity securities purchase agreement dated December 16, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The Company purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in Clairvoyant.

Clairvoyant is a global technology consulting and services company that helps organizations in their business transformation by maximizing the value of data through actionable insights. It provides data engineering, analytics, machine learning, product engineering, and cloud-based solutions. The acquisition strengthens the Company’s capabilities by adding additional expertise in data engineering and cloud enablement, further supporting its clients in insurance, healthcare, banking and financial services, and retail.

The aggregate purchase consideration payable was $90,325, including cash and cash equivalents acquired, debt, other post-closing adjustments and contingent consideration. The base purchase consideration payable at closing of the acquisition (the “Closing”) was $80,080, excluding cash and cash equivalents acquired, debt and estimated other post-closing adjustments. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, of the total purchase consideration, the Company ~~transitioned~~has paid $78,234 and $76,831, respectively, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired. The Purchase Agreement also allows sellers the ability to ~~new segment reporting structure effective January 1, 2020, which resulted in~~earn up to $20,000 of contingent consideration, based on the achievement of certain ~~changes to its operating segments~~performance goals by Clairvoyant during the 2022 and ~~reporting units.~~2023 calendar years. The ~~Company reallocated goodwill to its reporting units using a relative~~contingent consideration had an estimated fair value ~~approach. In addition,~~of $10,000 and $9,000, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and has been presented as contingent consideration under “Other non-current liabilities” and “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities,” as applicable, in the ~~Company completed an assessment~~consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of ~~any potential goodwill impairment for all its reporting units immediately prior to~~contingent consideration were recognized in the ~~reallocation~~unaudited consolidated statements of income and ~~determined that no impairment existed.~~

“Other income/(loss), net.” A portion of the purchase consideration otherwise payable was placed into escrow as security for the post-closing working capital adjustments and the indemnification obligations under the Purchase Agreement. To finance the acquisition at the Closing, the Company utilized its revolving Credit Facility in the amount of $75,000 and paid the balance with available cash on hand.

The Company accounted for the business combination using the acquisition method of accounting.

Pursuant to the Company’s business combinations accounting policy, the aggregate purchase consideration for Clairvoyant was allocated to identifiable net tangible and intangible assets based upon their fair values. The excess of the estimated purchase consideration over fair value of identifiable net tangible and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. In order to allocate the consideration transferred for Clairvoyant, the fair values of all identifiable assets and liabilities must be established. For accounting and financial reporting purposes, fair value is defined under ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal (most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Additionally, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results.

The tables below presents the fair value of the consideration exchanged and the allocation of purchase consideration to the major classes of assets and liabilities of Clairvoyant as of December 16, 2021:


Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	5,598
Accounts receivable, net	8,709
Other current assets	360
Property and equipment, net	398

Net assets acquired	32,871
Goodwill	57,454
Total purchase consideration*	$	90,325

* Includes contingent consideration of $9,000 recognized at fair value as of the date of acquisition.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized measurement period adjustments, which led to increase in goodwill in an amount of $1,081 and $2,229, respectively. These adjustments primarily relate to an increase in income tax liabilities of $988 included under “other non-current liabilities” and post-closing purchase adjustments.

(In thousands, except per share amount and share count)

The fair values of customer relationships were determined by using an “income approach,” specifically the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method. The customer relationship assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 7 years.

The fair values of the developed technology intangible assets were determined by using the “cost approach,” specifically the replacement cost method. The technology assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 3 years.

The goodwill recognized represents the acquired capabilities, operating synergies and other benefits expected to result from combining the acquired operations with the Company’s existing operations. The amount of goodwill recognized from Clairvoyant’s acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill has been assigned to the Company’s Analytics reportable segment based upon the Company’s assessment of nature of services rendered by Clairvoyant.

Acquisition-related costs are being expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income. The Company recognized acquisition-related costs of $nil and $134 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $761 during the year ended December 31, 2021.

The results of operations of the acquired business and the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements with effect from the date of the acquisition. The acquisition did not materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and therefore, the Company has not provided supplemental pro forma results.

Inbound Media Group, LLC

On June 10, 2022, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary ExlService.com, LLC, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire certain assets of Inbound, a Wyoming limited liability company, which is a digital marketing business focused primarily on lead generation in the insurance space, for cash consideration of $1,469 and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $1,439 as of the date of acquisition based on the achievement of certain performance goals by Inbound during the 2022 to 2024 calendar years.

The Company accounted for this business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Goodwill and intangible assets of $1,992 and $916, respectively, were recognized by the Company as a result of this transaction. The goodwill recognized for this business is deductible for income tax purposes. The acquisition strengthens the Company’s capabilities in digital direct-to-consumer marketing by adding performance marketing, lead generation and customer engagement capabilities to its suite of end-to-end marketing solutions, proprietary data sets and robust consumer analytics.

The results of operations of the acquired business and the fair value of the net assets acquired are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements with effect from the date of the acquisition. The acquisition did not materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and therefore, the Company has not provided unaudited supplemental pro forma results.

(In thousands, except per share amount and share count)

During the fourth quarter of ~~2020,~~2021, the Company performed its annual impairment test of goodwill for those reporting units that had goodwill recorded. Based on the results, the fair values of each of the Company’s reporting units exceeded their carrying value and the goodwill was not impaired.

As of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company evaluated the continuing effects of COVID-19 and its impact on the global economy, on each of the Company’s reporting units to assess whether there was a triggering event during the quarter requiring the Company to perform a goodwill impairment test. The Company considered ~~continued~~certain improvements in current and forecasted economic and market conditions and qualitative factors, such as the Company’s performance in the first and second quarters, business forecasts for the remainder of the year, stock price movements, generation and ~~the Company’s~~availability of cash and expansion plans. The Company reviewed key assumptions, including revisions of projected future revenues for reporting units against the results of the annual impairment test performed during the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company did not identify any triggers or indications of potential impairment for its reporting units as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022.

There can be no assurances that goodwill will not be impaired in future periods. Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including actual operating results. These estimates and judgements may not be within the control of the Company and accordingly it is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates described above could change in future periods. The duration and severity of COVID-19 and continued market volatility is highly uncertain and, as such, the impact on cash flows, long-term debt-free net cash flow growth rate in the terminal year and discount rates are subject to significant judgments and may cause variability in the Company’s assessment of existence of any impairment. The Company ~~will continue~~continues to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on the Company and significant changes in key assumptions that could result in future period impairment charges.

The recoverability of goodwill is dependent upon the continued growth of cash flows from the Company’s business activities. This growth is based on business forecasts and improvement in profitability of its reporting units. The Company continues to maintain its focus on cultivating long-term client relationships as well as attracting new clients.

*** Contingent consideration is presented under “Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities” and “Other Non-Current Liabilities,” as applicable, in the consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Fair values for derivative financial instruments are based on independent sources including highly rated financial institutions and are classified as Level 2. Refer to Note 16 - Derivatives and Hedge Accounting to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further details.

Fair Value of Contingent Consideration:

The fair value measurement of contingent consideration is determined using Level 3 inputs. The Company’s contingent consideration represents a component of the total purchase consideration for its acquisition of Clairvoyant and Inbound. The measurement is calculated using unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assessment of achievement of certain performance goals by Clairvoyant during the 2022 and 2023 calendar years and Inbound during the 2022 to 2024 calendar years. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $11,439 and $9,000, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, based on the Monte Carlo simulation model and scenario-based method. Refer to Note 9 - Business Combination, Goodwill and Intangible Assets to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further details.

Financial ~~instruments not carried~~Instruments Not Carried at ~~fair value~~Fair Value:

The Company’s other financial instruments not carried at fair value consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents (except investments in money market funds, as disclosed above), short-term investments (except investments in mutual funds, as disclosed above), restricted cash, accounts receivable, net, interest accrued ~~interest~~ on ~~term deposits,~~short-term and long-term investments, long-term investments, accrued capital expenditures, accrued expenses, client liabilities and interest payable on borrowings for which fair values approximate their carrying ~~amounts due to their short-term nature.~~amounts. The carrying value of the Company’s outstanding revolving credit facility approximates its fair value because the Company’s interest rate yield is near current market rates for comparable debt instruments.

The Company considers the fair value of the convertible senior notes to be a Level 2 measurement due to the limited inputs available for its fair valuation.share count)

16. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting

The Company uses derivative instruments and hedging transactions to mitigate exposure to foreign currency fluctuation risks associated with forecasted transactions denominated in certain foreign currencies so as to minimize earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are largely forward foreign exchange contracts that are designated as effective hedges and that qualify as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. The Company had outstanding cash flow hedges totaling ~~$520,560~~$568,300 as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$451,935~~$514,580 as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Changes in the fair value of these cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), net of tax, until the hedged transactions occurs. The resultant foreign exchange gain/(loss) upon settlement of these cash flow hedges is recorded along with the underlying hedged item in the same line of unaudited consolidated statements of income as ~~either~~ a part of “Cost of revenues,” “General and administrative expenses,” “Selling and marketing ~~expenses”,~~expenses,” and “Depreciation and amortization expense,” as applicable.

The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at the time a contract is entered into as well as on an ongoing basis. For hedging positions that are discontinued because the forecasted transaction is not expected to occur by the end of the originally specified period, any related amounts recorded in equity are reclassified to earnings.

The Company estimates that approximately ~~$6,891~~$3,795 of derivative ~~gains,~~losses, net, excluding tax effects, included in ~~AOCL,~~AOCI, representing changes in the value of cash flow hedges based on exchange rates prevailing as of June 30, 2022, could be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve ~~months based on exchange rates prevailing as of June 30, 2021.~~months. At June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the maximum outstanding term of the cash flow hedges was 45approximately 42 months.

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge its intercompany balances and other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currencies, against the risk of foreign currency fluctuations associated with remeasurement of such assets and liabilities to functional currency. These derivatives do not qualify as fair value hedges under ASC 815. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in the unaudited consolidated statements of income and are included in the foreign exchange gain/(loss) line item. The Company’s primary exchange rate exposure is with the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling (GBP) and the Philippine peso. The Company also has exposure to Colombian pesos (COP), Czech koruna, the Euro (EUR), South African ZAR, the Australian dollar (AUD) and other local currencies in which it operates. Outstanding foreign currency forward contracts amounted to USD ~~124,195,~~156,066, GBP ~~6,928,~~8,700, EUR ~~1,425~~1,736 and COP ~~8,172,868~~2,777,668 as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and USD ~~143,394,~~134,612, GBP ~~6,753,~~6,763, EUR ~~2,447~~1,343 and COP ~~8,287,950~~2,541,902 as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

The Company uses forward contracts designated as net investment hedges to hedge the foreign currency risks related to our investments in foreign subsidiaries. Gains and losses on these net investment hedges are recognized in ~~AOCL~~AOCI as part of foreign currency translation adjustments.

All of the assets and liabilities related to our foreign exchange forward contracts are subject to master netting arrangements with each individual counterparty. These master netting arrangements generally provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with the counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. We have presented all of the assets and liabilities related to our foreign exchange forward contracts on a gross basis, with no offsets, in our unaudited consolidated statements of financial position. There is no financial collateral (including cash collateral) provided or received by us related to our foreign exchange forward contracts.

20. Leases

The Company conducts its operations using facilities leased under operating lease agreements that expire at various dates. The Company finances its use of certain motor vehicles and other equipment under various lease arrangements provided by financial institutions. The lease agreements do not contain any covenants to impose any restrictions except for market-standard practice for similar lease arrangements.

The Company had performed an evaluation of its contracts with suppliers in accordance with Topic 842, Leases, and had determined that, except for leases for office facilities, motor vehicles and other equipment as described above, none of the Company’s contracts contain a lease. In assessment of the lease term, the Company considers the extension option as part of its lease term for those lease arrangements where the Company is reasonably certain of availing the extension option. As part of the Company’s effort to moderate the impact of COVID-19, the Company continued to evaluate its office facilities to determine where it can exit, consolidate, or otherwise optimize its use of office space. ~~During the year ended December 31, 2020, the~~The Company ~~changed~~recognizes changes to the lease term ~~for certain of its leases and recognized the resultant amount~~by remeasuring lease liabilities as of the ~~remeasurement~~date of such modification with the ~~lease liability as an~~resultant adjustment to the ROU assets.

The impact of COVID-19 on the economic environment is uncertain and has caused variability in the determination of the incremental borrowing rate and extension option, which have an impact on measurement of lease liabilities and ROU assets.

~~During~~Effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2021, Internal Code Section 174, Amortization of Research and Experimental Expenditures, provides that research and experimentation expenses can no longer be currently deducted, and instead are required to be capitalized. Such capitalized expenses are to be amortized over a period of five and fifteen years for the ~~three months ended June 30, 2021,~~U.S. and foreign research, respectively. Although this change has no impact on the ~~Company repatriated~~income statement due to offsetting current tax expense with corresponding deferred tax benefit, the ~~United States $49,000 (net~~change has resulted in an increase of ~~$2,586 withholding taxes) from India, $42,500 (net of $7,494 withholding taxes) from~~$13,929 in the ~~Philippines~~current tax liability and ~~$17,000 (net of $908 withholding taxes) from India~~deferred tax asset balances, presented under “Income taxes payable, net” and “Deferred tax assets, net,” respectively, in ~~July 2021. As~~the unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021, the Company accrued withholding taxes of $10,988 associated with these distributions and increased the Company’s deferred tax assets. These distributions do not constitute a change in the Company’s permanent reinvestment assertion. The Company bases its decision to continue to indefinitely reinvest earnings in India and the Philippines on its estimate of the working capital required to support its operations in these geographies and periodically reviews its capital initiatives to support and expand the Company’s global operations, as well as an economically viable rate of return on its investments made in India and the Philippines as compared to those made in the United States.

Share Matching Program

Under the Company’s 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), the Company established a share matching program (“SMP”) for executive officers and other specified employees. Under the SMP, the Company agreed to issue a number of restricted stock units equal to the number of newly acquired shares of the Company's common stock. For purposes of the match, “newly acquired shares” includes the employee’s open market purchase of the common stock and crediting of equity awards vesting under any existing stock award plan of the Company as having been purchased by such employees, in an amount between $100 to $500 per such employee.

The matching restricted stock units granted under the SMP will vest in 2 installments, with one-third to vest on the second anniversary of the grant date and the remaining two-thirds to vest on the third anniversary of the grant date; the newly acquired shares for which the matching restricted stock units were granted must also be held by the employee until such vesting dates. The Company’s underlying common stock issued pursuant to the vesting of the matching restricted stock units will not be marketable or transferable for a period of two years following the vesting date. Certain forfeiture and other conditions apply.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted 52,636 matching restricted stock units under the SMP.

The Company has made payments and/or provided bank guarantees against these demands in the amounts of ~~$8,003~~$7,889 and ~~$8,120,~~$7,954, respectively. Amounts paid as deposits in respect of such assessments aggregating to ~~$6,221~~$6,212 and ~~$6,307~~$6,172 as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, are included in “Other assets” and amounts deposited for bank guarantees aggregating to ~~$1,782~~$1,677 and ~~$1,813~~$1,782 as of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, are included in “Restricted cash” in the non-current assets section of the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Based on the facts underlying the Company’s position and its experience with these types of assessments, the Company believes that its position will more likely than not be sustained upon final examination by the tax authorities based on its technical merits as of the reporting date and accordingly has not accrued any amount with respect to these matters in its ~~unaudited~~ consolidated financial statements. ~~The Company does not expect any impact from these assessments on its future income tax expense.~~ It is possible that the Company might receive similar orders or assessments from tax authorities for subsequent years. Accordingly, even if these disputes are resolved, the Indian tax authorities may still serve additional orders or assessments.

India’s Value Added Tax (“VAT”) regime ended in June 2017 and was replaced by the current Goods and Service Tax (“GST”) regime. Pursuant to reviewing the Company’s annual VAT filings, the Indian tax authorities raised aggregate VAT tax demands for tax years 2015 and 2017 in an amount of $5,788 and $6,387 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the GST authorities rejected the Company’s refunds claims in an amount of $3,655 and $3,322 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company has filed appeals against these

NaN of the Company’s subsidiaries in India is undergoing an assessment with the statutory authority with respect to defined social security contribution ~~benefits payments interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers. Currently some~~plan. The Company believes that the amount demanded by such authority is not meaningful indicator of the ~~Company's subsidiaries in India are undergoing assessment with~~potential liabilities of the ~~statutory authorities.~~Company, and that the matter is without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend against it. As of the reporting date, it is unclear whether the interpretation set out in the pronouncement has retrospective application. If applied retrospectively, the interpretation may result in a significant increase in contributions payable by the Company for past periods for certain of its India-based employees. There are numerous interpretative challenges concerning the retrospective application of the judgment. Due to such challenges and a lack of interpretive guidance, and based on legal advice, the Company believes it is currently impracticable to reliably estimate the timing and amount of any payments the Company may be required to ~~make.~~make in this ongoing matter. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate its position based on future events and developments in this matter for ~~the~~ implications on the Company’s financial statements, if any. The Company’s management does not believe that any ultimate assessment will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2020, the Indian Parliament passed various consolidating labor codes, including the Code on Social Security, 2020 (the “Indian Social Security Code”) which aims to rationalize labor laws. The Indian Social Security Code has implications on defined social security contribution plans, provision of certain benefits or facilities to employees at employer’s costs and post-retirement benefits. Most specifically, it broadens the definition of an employee and wages and liberalizes the definition of “continuous period” for the purpose of determining employee benefits, amongst others. However, the rules for the Indian Social Security Code are yet to be published and the effective date from which these changes are applicable is yet to be notified. The Company will complete its evaluation once the subject rules are notified and will give appropriate impact in the financial statements in the period in which, the Indian Social Security Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published.

From time to time, the Company, its subsidiaries, and/or their present officers or directors, on individual basis, may be or have been, named as a defendant in litigation matters, including employment-related claims. The plaintiffs in those cases seek damages, including, where applicable, compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorney’s fees. With respect to pending litigation matters as of the reporting date, the Company believes that the damages amounts claimed in such cases are not meaningful indicators of the potential liabilities of the Company, that these matters are without merit, and that the Company intends to vigorously defend each of them.

The outcomes of legal actions are unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, and thus it is inherently difficult to determine the likelihood of the Company incurring a material loss or quantification of any such loss. With respect to pending litigation matters as of the reporting date, based on information currently available, including the Company’s assessment of the facts underlying each matter and advice of counsel, the amount or range of reasonably possible losses, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Based on the Company’s assessment, including the availability of insurance recoveries, the Company’s management does not believe that currently pending litigation, individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Continued ~~impact~~Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business

The global COVID-19 pandemic continues to materially impact worldwide economic activity and levels of business confidence and has had widespread, rapidly-evolving and unpredictable impacts on global societies, economies, financial markets and business practices. During 2020, COVID-19 materially impacted our business, however during the first half of 2021, we saw moderate improvement in key indicators, despite being prevented from conducting business activities as usual from geographies affected by new variants of the COVID-19 virus. Over the course of 2020 and 2021, and continuing into ~~2021,~~first half of 2022, our ~~customers,~~clients, contractors, suppliers, and other partners adapted in order to conduct business activities in a COVID-19 environment. ~~The U.S.~~As the global economy continued ~~on a path~~ to ~~recovery in the first half of 2021 with millions of Americans receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, and states and municipalities increasingly reopening.

We remain committed to helping our clients adapt and thrive through the ongoing uncertainties caused by COVID-19 and, going forward, to the shifting business ~~environment. Notwithstanding the moderate improvement in conditions~~environment, which has led to increased demand for digital capabilities.

Our remote working delivery capability steadily improved throughout 2021 and during the first half of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic continues, with temporary shutdowns at our operations centers requested or mandated by governmental authorities, and due to the associated uncertainties, we continue to evaluate the nature and scope of the impact to our business and may take further strategic actions in order to manage our business operations, costs and liquidity in response to the ongoing impacts and changing conditions and markets resulting from COVID-19.

2022. We have a business continuity plan in place and have, since early in the pandemic, adapted delivery to a work from home model, while actively working to understand our clients’ changing requirements, continuing to ensure data security, prioritizing critical processes, adjusting service levels and managing discretionary costs (such as travel costs) and fixed costs (such as non-critical personnel costs). We have made ongoing efforts to reduce our reliance on travel by incorporating into our business model the ability to conduct business using virtual conferencing and collaboration tools. Our work from home delivery capability steadily improved throughout 2020 and continued to improve during the first half of 2021. We estimate that we are able to deliver a significant portion of our clients’ current requirements in a remote work ~~from home model given~~model. In 2022, we implemented a new work standard under which employees in many of our locations, where permitted by local laws and regulations, and where the ~~current lockdown restrictions in~~role and client requirements permit, will have the ~~locations in which we operate and certain clients not authorizing us~~opportunity to ~~perform the remaining process~~choose between different work ~~remotely due~~arrangements. Subject to ~~its sensitive nature. In addition, we have also worked, and continue to work with national, state, and~~ local ~~authorities to comply with applicable~~ rules and regulations, ~~related to COVID-19. There continues to be volatility and economic and geopolitical uncertainty~~these work arrangements include working in ~~many markets around the world due to the emergence and spread of new variants of COVID-19 across geographies. Despite the efforts described above, there is~~ a ~~risk that if jurisdictions in which we operate reinstate prior restrictions, stagnate in their reopening processes,~~hybrid arrangement or ~~implement new restrictions in response to new outbreaks or continued spread, our operations and business could be materially impacted. In late March 2021,~~ a ~~new serious outbreak of the COVID-19 virus began affecting India~~fully remote arrangement, with an exorbitant spike in the number of COVID patients. The Indian government reinstated lockdowns limiting in certain cases the movement of our employees to offices, however these lockdowns were lifted as the situation in India improved. During the same period, the Philippines also began experiencing a spike in the number of COVID patients. Our Indian and Philippines operations were not materially affected as we initiated appropriate business continuity procedures, so as to minimize the effects of these new developments, but it is possible that our business and results of operations could nevertheless be materially affected if any further developments, including new variants of the COVID-19 virus, emerge.

We also took actions in response to the pandemic that focused on helping our employees. In the geographies most affected by the recent COVID-19 variants, these actions included healthcare support including securing and administering vaccines for our employees, facilitating our employees’ access to medical equipment, providing ambulance services and online medical consultations, extending medical insurance to our employees’ family members and enhancing the dollar value of such coverage. We also instituted a one-time employee compensation payment to beneficiaries of employees, facilitated voluntary contributions from our clients and employees to support the family members of deceased employees and providing financial support for their children's education. Other actions included disseminating guidance and information to our employees, facilitatingoccasional work from ~~home, implementing best practices for employees while working from home, periodic CEO messaging, various programs aimed at employee wellness, including~~the office when warranted. We have begun to re-open our operation centers and offices globally with a ~~global wellness program, enhanced leave for employees affected by COVID-19, enhanced awareness towards information security,~~focus on safety and updated cyber security and data privacy policies, among others. We continue to have broad travel restrictions and largely operating in virtual-only events for the safety of our employees and our customers. We also implemented pandemic-specific protocols for our essential employees whose jobs require them to be on-site orconsistency with ~~our customers by implementing additional safety measures at all of our facilities, including increased frequency in cleaning and disinfecting, and enhanced hygiene and social distancing practices.~~applicable local regulations.

We continue to ~~incur additional costs in order to ensure~~focus on effectively managing the ~~continuity~~unprecedented challenges and uncertainties of our operations and support our work from home model. Such costs include purchase of desktops and laptops for our employees, software and internet connectivity devices, technology tools for productivity enhancement, accommodation, meal, overtime, transportation and regular sanitization and cleaning costs of our offices and facilities. We also expect that we will continue to incur additional costs to monitor and improve operational efficiency of our work from home model, implement new information technology solutions and security measures to safeguard against information security risks and protectthe pandemic on a global basis. Management has prioritized the health and safety of our employees ~~as they gradually return~~and their families: we have adopted numerous safety procedures at our global facilities, including hygiene and disinfection protocols, testing and contact tracing, social distancing and wearing personal protective equipment.

Due to the above circumstances and as described generally in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our financial results, including but not limited to net revenues, income from operations, net income, cash flow and earnings per share, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year of 2021.

Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we had revenues of ~~$275.1~~$346.8 million compared to revenues of ~~$222.5~~$275.1 million for the three months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, an increase of ~~$52.6~~$71.7 million, or ~~23.6%~~26.1%. For the six months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we had revenues of ~~$536.5~~$676.0 million compared to revenues of ~~$468.5~~$536.5 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, an increase of ~~$68.0~~$139.5 million, or ~~14.5%~~26.0%.

For the three months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, our total revenues from our top ten clients accounted for ~~37.8%~~36.2% and ~~38.7%~~37.8% of our total revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, our total revenues from our top ten clients accounted for ~~38.5%~~36.2% and ~~37.1%~~38.5% of our total revenues, respectively. Our revenue concentration with our top clients remains largely consistent year-over-year and we continue to develop relationships with new clients to diversify our client base. We believe that the loss of any of our top ten clients could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.

Our Business

We provide data analytics and digital operations ~~management~~ and ~~analytics services.~~solutions to our clients. We market our services to our existing and prospective clients through our sales and client management teams, which are aligned by key industry verticals and cross-industry domains such as finance and accounting. Our sales and client management teams operate primarily from the United States, Europe and Australia.

Digital Operations ~~Management Services:~~and Solutions: We provide our clients with a range of digital operations ~~management services~~and solutions from our Insurance, Healthcare and Emerging Business ~~operating segments,~~strategic business units, which are focused on solving complex industry problems such as the insurance claims lifecycle and financial transactions processing, and typically involve the ~~transfer by our clients~~use of agile delivery models to ~~EXL of certain of their~~implement digital technologies and interventions like hyper-automation, customer experience transformation, advanced automation, robotics, enterprise architecture, end-to-end business ~~operations, such as claims processing, clinical operations, or financial transaction processing, after which we~~function management and transformations.

We also provide consulting services related to digital operations ~~management~~and solutions that include industry-specific digital transformational services as well as cross-industry finance and accounting services as part of the Emerging Business ~~operating segment.~~strategic business unit.

We provide our services under contracts with our clients, which typically have terms of three or more years, with some being rolling contracts with no end dates. Typically, our clients can terminate these contracts with or without cause and with short notice periods. These contracts provide us with a relatively predictable revenue base for a substantial portion of our digital operations ~~management~~and solutions business. However, we have a long selling cycle for our services and the budget and approval processes of prospective clients make it difficult to predict the timing of entering into definitive agreements with new clients. Similarly, new license sales and implementation projects for our technology service platforms and other software-based services have a long selling cycle, however ongoing annual maintenance and support contracts for existing arrangements provide us with a relatively predictable revenue base.

We charge for our services using various pricing models like time-and-material pricing, full-time-equivalent pricing, transaction-based pricing, outcome-based pricing, subscription-based pricing and other alternative pricing models. Outcome-based pricing arrangements are examples of non-linear pricing models where clients link revenues from platforms and solutions and the services we provide to usage or savings rather than the efforts deployed to provide these services. We continue to observe a shift in the industry pricing models toward transaction-based pricing, outcome-based pricing and other alternative pricing models. We believe this trend will continue and we use such alternative pricing models with some of our current clients and are seeking to move certain other clients from a full-time-equivalent pricing model to a transaction-based or other alternative pricing model. These alternative pricing models place the focus on operating efficiency in order to maintain or improve our gross margins.

We have also observed that prospective larger clients are entering into multi-vendor relationships with regard to their outsourcing needs. We believe that the trend toward multi-vendor relationships will continue. A multi-vendor relationship allows a client to seek more favorable pricing and other contract terms from each vendor, which can result in significantly reduced gross margins from the provision of services to such client for each vendor. To the extent our large clients expand their use of multi-vendor relationships and are able to extract more favorable contract terms from other vendors, our gross margins and revenues may be reduced with regard to such clients if we are required to modify the terms of our relationships with such clients to meet competition.

Analytics: Our analytics services focus on driving improved business outcomes for our ~~customers~~clients by unlocking deep insights from data and create ~~data-driven~~data driven solutions across all parts of our ~~customers’~~clients’ business. We also provide care optimization and reimbursement optimization services, for our clients through our healthcare analytics solutions and services. We also offer integrated solutions to help our clients in cost containment by leveraging technology platforms, customizable and configurable analytics and expertise in healthcare reimbursements to help clients enhance their claim payment accuracy. Our teams deliver predictive and prescriptive analytics in the areas of customer acquisition and lifecycle management, risk underwriting and pricing, operational effectiveness, credit and operational risk monitoring and governance, regulatory reporting, payment integrity and care management and data management. We enhance, modernize and enrich structured and unstructured data and use a spectrum of advanced analytical tools and techniques, including our in-house ~~Machine Learning (“ML”)~~ML and ~~Artificial Intelligence (“AI”)~~AI capabilities to create insights and improve decision making for our clients. Our acquisition of Clairvoyant in December 2021 strengthens our analytics capabilities by adding additional expertise in data engineering and cloud enablement, further supporting our clients in the insurance, healthcare, banking and financial services, and retail industries. We actively cross-sell and, where appropriate, integrate our ~~Analytics~~analytics services with other digital operations ~~management services~~and solutions as part of a comprehensive offering for our clients. Our projects-based analytics services are cyclical and can be significantly affected by variations in business cycles. In addition, our projects-based analytics services are documented in contracts with terms generally not exceeding one year and may not produce ongoing or recurring business for us once the project is completed. These contracts also usually contain provisions permitting termination of the contract after a short notice period. The short-term nature and specificity of these projects could lead to fluctuations and uncertainties in the revenues generated from providing analytics services.

We anticipate that revenues from our analytics services will grow as we expand our service offerings and client base, both organically and through acquisitions.

This was partially offset by a loss of $1.5 million ~~and an increase in revenues of $0.6 million that was~~ mainly attributable to the ~~appreciation~~depreciation of the U.K. pound sterling, the Indian rupee and the ~~U.K. pound sterling~~Euro against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Revenue growth in Analytics of ~~$29.7~~$49.9 million was attributable to the higher volumes in our annuity and project-based engagements from our new and existing clients of ~~$28.7~~$40.2 million, and ~~an increase~~contributions from our acquisition of Clairvoyant in ~~revenues~~December 2021 of ~~$1.0~~$11.0 million.

As of June 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, we had ~~$294.7~~$265.2 million and ~~$335.6~~$294.7 million, respectively, in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, of which ~~$254.2~~$241.1 million and ~~$275.5~~$254.2 million, respectively, is located in foreign jurisdictions that upon distribution may be subject to withholding and other taxes. We periodically evaluate opportunities ~~to distribute cash among our group entities~~regarding distribution to fund our operations in the United States and other geographies, and as and when we decide to distribute, we may have to accrue additional taxes in accordance with local tax laws, rules and regulations in the relevant foreign jurisdictions. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we repatriated to the United States $49.0 million (net of $2.6 million withholding taxes) from India, $42.5 million (net of $7.5 million withholding taxes) from the Philippines and $17.0 million (net of $0.9 million withholding taxes) from India in July 2021. These distributions do not constitute a change in our permanent reinvestment assertion. We base our decision to continue to indefinitely reinvest earnings in India and the Philippines on our estimate of the working capital required to support our operations in these geographies and periodically review our capital initiatives to support and expand our global operations, as well as an economically viable rate of return on our investments made in India and the Philippines as compared to those made in the United States.

Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities was $53.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $53.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, ~~as compared to net~~reflecting our cash ~~provided by operating activities~~earnings and effective management of ~~$58.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, reflecting higher~~ working capital ~~needs, offset by cash earnings.~~needs. The major drivers contributing to the decrease of ~~$5.0~~$0.8 million year-over-year included the following:

•A decrease in accrued employee costs, offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities contributed to a lower cash flow of $33.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to higher payments (net of accruals) of annual performance incentives of $39.7 million, offset by higher employee costs accruals of $3.2 million and higher accrued expenses due to an increase in our cost base to support revenue growth of $3.5 million.

•Changes in accounts receivable, including advance billings, contributed ~~lower~~higher cash flow of ~~$71.9~~$15.5 million in the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The ~~decrease~~increase was a result of ~~higher accounts receivable resulting from revenue growth, change in credit terms for certain clients~~lower cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2021, ~~and~~ due to higher advance collections during the three months ended December 31, 2020. This was partially offset by higher accounts receivable resulting from revenue growth during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and increase in our accounts receivable days sales outstanding which ~~improved~~was 60 days as of June 30, 2022 as compared to 58 days as of June 30, ~~2021 from 63 days as of June 30, 2020.~~2021.

•~~Increase~~An increase in net income of ~~$29.1~~$12.1 million in the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to an increase in income from operations of ~~$40.1~~$13.6 million driven by higher revenues, lower interest expense of $2.6 million and higher gain from equity-method investment of $0.3 million, partially offset by higher income tax expense of ~~$8.0 million and lower other income, net of interest expense of $3.1~~$4.4 million.

•Increase in accrued employee costs, accrued expenses and other liabilities contributed higher cash flow of $51.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to lower payment and higher provisions of annual performance incentives of $23.3 million, higher other employee cost accruals of $4.0 million and higher accrued expenses and other liabilities of $24.3 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

•Other drivers ~~decreasing~~increasing cash flows during the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 included: lower income tax payments, net of refunds, of ~~$13.8~~$4.4 million, primarily due to withholding tax payments during the six months ended June 30, 2021, offset by higher advance income tax payments on ~~account of~~ higher net ~~income.~~income during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Investing Activities: Cash flows ~~provided by~~used for investing activities were ~~$11.7~~$41.0 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 as compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of ~~$1.1~~$11.7 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The increase in cash flows used for investing activities of $52.7 million is mainly due to higher net purchase of investments of $13.5 million during six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to net redemption of investments of $31.0 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2021 as compared~~2021. The increase is also due to higher capital expenditures in infrastructure, technology assets, software and product developments of $5.5 million and acquisitions related payouts of $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Financing Activities: Cash flows used for financing activities were ~~$131.4~~$35.3 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 as compared to cash flows used for financing activities of ~~$13.4~~$131.4 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The ~~increase in cash flows used for financing activities~~decrease of $96.1 million was primarily due to ~~higher~~ net ~~repayment~~proceeds of ~~$73.8 million~~our borrowings under our revolving Credit Facility ~~higher purchases~~ of ~~treasury stock by $43.4 million under our share repurchase program and lower proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.8~~$25.0 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2021~~2022 as compared to net repayment of our borrowings of $74.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This was partially offset by higher purchases of treasury stock by $2.8 million under our share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

We expect to use cash from operating activities to maintain and expand our business by making investments, primarily related to new facilities and capital expenditures associated with leasehold improvements to build our facilities, digital capabilities and purchase telecommunications equipment and computer hardware and software in connection with managing client operations.

We incurred ~~$19.9~~$25.1 million of capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. We expect to incur total capital expenditures of between ~~$35.0 million and~~ $40.0 million to $45.0 million in ~~2021,~~2022, primarily to meet our growth requirements, including additions to our facilities as well as investments in technology applications, product development, digital technology, advanced automation, robotics and infrastructure.

In connection with any tax assessment orders that have been issued or may be issued against us or our subsidiaries, we may be required to deposit additional amounts with respect to such assessment orders (see Note 24 - Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements herein for further details). We anticipate that we will continue to rely upon cash from operating activities to finance our working capital needs, capital expenditures and smaller acquisitions. If we have significant growth through acquisitions, we may need to obtain additional financing.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements over the next 12 months. Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, our investments in strategic initiatives, applications or technologies, operation centers and acquisition of complementary businesses, continued purchases under our board-authorized stock repurchase program, which may require the use of significant cash resources and/or additional financing. Although we anticipate that we will continue to rely upon cash from operating activities to finance most of our above mentioned requirements, if we have significant growth through acquisitions, we may need to obtain additional financing.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into contracts and commitments that obligate us to make payments in the future. These obligations include borrowings, including interest obligations, purchase commitments, operating and finance lease commitments, employee benefit payments under Gratuity plans and uncertain tax positions. See Note 17 - Borrowings, Note 20 - Leases, and Note 24 - Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements herein for further information on material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations.

In the ordinary course of business, we provide standby letters of credit to third parties primarily for facility leases. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit of $0.5 million, each, that were not recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. These are not reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. We had no other off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

During the three months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no material changes in our market risk exposure. For a discussion of our market risk associated with exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, see Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, ~~2021.~~2022. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In making its assessment of the changes in internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2022, our management excluded an evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures of Clairvoyant and Inbound which we acquired on December 16, 2021 and June 10, 2022, respectively. See Note 9 - Business Combination, Goodwill and Intangible Assets to our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein for details of our acquisition.

PART II. Other Information

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

In the course of our normal business activities, various lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be instituted or asserted against us. Although there can be no assurance, we believe that the disposition of matters currently instituted or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 24 - Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein for details.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

We have ~~discussed~~disclosed below, as well as under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 (the ~~“2020~~“2021 Form 10-K”), supplemented by the disclosure below, a number of risks which may materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. You should carefully consider these Risk Factors and other information set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should be aware that these risk factors and other information may not describe every risk facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

~~The following constitutes a supplement to the 2020 Form 10-K, Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” under “Our business,~~Our results of operations ~~and financial condition have been adversely affected, and~~ could ~~in the future~~ be ~~materially~~ adversely affected by economic and political conditions globally and the ~~coronavirus pandemic.”~~effects of these conditions on our clients’ businesses and levels of business activity.

Moreover, the ongoing effects of the hostilities and sanctions may not be limited to Russia and Russian companies and may spill over to and negatively impact other regional and global economic markets. A prolonged conflict may result in increased inflation, rising energy prices and constrained supply chain, and thus may lead to inflationary global economic environment. At this time, the extent and duration of the military action, resulting sanctions and future economic and market disruptions, and resulting effects on the Company, are impossible to predict.
