NEW YORK; June 23, 2011 — Accenture (NYSE: ACN) reported strong financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2011, ended May 31, 2011, with net revenues of $6.7 billion, an increase of 21 percent in U.S. dollars and 15 percent in local currency over the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share were $0.93, an increase of $0.20, or 27 percent, over the same period last year.
Operating income was $949 million, an increase of 18 percent over the same period last year, and operating margin was 14.1 percent.
New bookings for the quarter were $7.1 billion, with consulting bookings of $3.7 billion and outsourcing bookings of $3.4 billion.
Pierre Nanterme, Accenture’s chief executive officer, said, “We are very pleased with our third-quarter results. The continued momentum in our business and the focused execution of our growth strategy enabled us to achieve our highest quarterly revenues ever, of more than $6.7 billion. Four of our five operating groups, and all three geographic regions, saw double-digit revenue growth in both U.S. dollars and local currency. We also achieved record quarterly EPS of $0.93, and we have a very strong balance sheet.
“We continue to gain market share, and demand for our services remains robust, as demonstrated by third-quarter bookings in excess of $7 billion. Our focus remains on driving sustainable and profitable growth through technology leadership and industry differentiation, and delivering superior value to our clients and shareholders.”
Financial Review
Revenues before reimbursements (“net revenues”) for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 were $6.7 billion, compared with $5.6 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of 21 percent in U.S. dollars and 15 percent in local currency. Net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 exceeded the company’s guided range of $6.3 billion to $6.5 billion, which assumed a foreign-exchange impact of positive 4 percent. Adjusting for the actual foreign-exchange impact of positive 6 percent in the third quarter, the Company’s guided range for quarterly net revenues would have been $6.4 billion to $6.6 billion. Net revenues of $6.7 billion for the quarter also exceeded this adjusted range.
| | • | | Consulting net revenues for the quarter were $3.97 billion, an increase of 23 percent in U.S. dollars and 17 percent in local currency over the third quarter of fiscal 2010. |
| | • | | Outsourcing net revenues were $2.75 billion, an increase of 17 percent in U.S. dollars and 12 percent in local currency over the third quarter of fiscal 2010. |
Diluted EPS for the quarter were $0.93, an increase of $0.20, or 27 percent, compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The components of the increase were:
| | • | | an $0.08 increase from higher revenue and operating results in local currency; |
| | • | | a $0.04 increase from a lower effective tax rate; |
| | • | | a $0.04 increase from favorable foreign-exchange rates; |
| | • | | a $0.03 increase from a lower share count; and |
| | • | | a $0.01 increase from higher non-operating income. |
Operating income for the quarter was $949 million, or 14.1 percent of net revenues, compared with $804 million, or 14.4 percent of net revenues, for the third quarter of fiscal 2010.
Gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of net revenues) for the quarter was 34.4 percent, compared with 34.7 percent for the third quarter last year.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the third quarter were $1.36 billion, or 20.2 percent of net revenues, compared with $1.12 billion, or 20.2 percent of net revenues, for the third quarter last year. Sales and marketing costs as a percentage of net revenues decreased 40 basis points. General and administrative costs as a percentage of net revenues increased 40 basis points and included a $75 million provision for litigation matters (an impact of 110 basis points), partially offset by management of other general and administrative costs at a growth rate lower than that of net revenues.
The company’s effective tax rate for the quarter was 27.0 percent, compared with 29.8 percent for the third quarter last year. The lower rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was primarily due to a number of factors that affect the geographic mix of income, partially offset by a net increase in reserves related to ongoing tax audits.
Net income for the quarter was $699 million, compared with $564 million for the same period of fiscal 2010, an increase of 24 percent.
Operating cash flow for the quarter was $1.35 billion, and property and equipment additions were $113 million. Free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow net of property and equipment additions, was $1.24 billion. For the same period last year, operating cash flow was $961 million; property and equipment additions were $58 million; and free cash flow was $903 million.
Days services outstanding, or DSOs, were 32 days at May 31, 2011, compared with 30 days at Aug. 31, 2010.
Accenture’s total cash balance at May 31, 2011 was $5.3 billion, compared with $4.8 billion at Aug. 31, 2010.
Utilization for the quarter was 85 percent. Attrition for the quarter was 15 percent, compared with 17 percent for the third quarter last year.
New Bookings

could be adversely affected; the company may be subject to criticism, negative publicity and legislative or regulatory action related to its incorporation in Ireland; if the company is unable to manage the organizational challenges associated with its size, the company might be unable to achieve its business objectives; the company may not be successful at identifying, acquiring or integrating other businesses; consolidation in the industries the company serves could adversely affect its business; the company’s share price could fluctuate and be difficult to predict; as well as the risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed under the “Risk Factors” heading in Accenture plc’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and other documents filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
