Westborough, MA — (November 4, 2013) Virtusa Corporation (NASDAQ: VRTU), a global business consulting and IT outsourcing company that combines innovation, technology leadership and industry solutions to transform the customer experience, today reported consolidated financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014, ended September 30, 2013.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2014 Consolidated Financial Results
Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $94.3 million, an increase of 17% year-over-year and 4% sequentially in both reported and constant currency (1).
Virtusa reported income from operations of $9.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, an increase of 9% compared to $8.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, and an increase of 32% compared to $7.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013.
Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $7.5 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to $7.5 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014, and an increase compared to $5.8 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 included ($1.0) million of foreign currency transaction losses compared to a gain of $0.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, and a loss of ($0.5) million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.
The Company ended the second quarter of fiscal 2014 with $110.4 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments (2). The Company generated $23.7 million of cash from operating activities during the second quarter of fiscal 2014.
Kris Canekeratne, Virtusa’s Chairman and CEO, stated, “We are pleased with our second quarter results. Our strong year-over-year performance continues to be
driven by the three components of our growth platform, specifically our leadership position in helping our clients build a millennial experience for their customers and employees, our industry leading transformational solutions, and our IT rationalization capabilities. We continue to have success extending our differentiation in these areas, and as a result, we are expanding our market opportunity and taking on larger programs.”
Ranjan Kalia, Chief Financial Officer, said, “During the second quarter, we delivered strong sequential and year-over-year revenue growth. In addition, our efforts to scale the business and leverage our global resources have enabled us to expand our operating profit margins while still investing for growth.” Mr. Kalia added, “For the second half of the fiscal year, we expect our organic sequential revenue growth rates to accelerate from current levels; therefore, we are raising our top-line guidance for the 2014 fiscal year.”
Acquisition of OSB Consulting LLC
Virtusa extends its current strength in finance transformation (“FT”) with the acquisition of OSB Consulting LLC, which closed on November 1, 2013. OSB is a New Jersey-based consulting firm specializing in the financial services and insurance domains, including SAP finance capabilities. OSB is focused on helping clients automate their finance & accounting processes, reporting capabilities and regulatory compliance. The addition of OSB will enable Virtusa to take on a more strategic role across several large programs already in place, as well as enable the Company to offer a broader set of finance transformation services to existing and new clients.
Under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, Virtusa acquired substantially all of the assets of OSB’s business for approximately $7.0 million in cash, as well as up to an additional $6.0 million in earn-out consideration upon OSB’s achievement of certain revenue and profit milestones during calendar years 2013, 2014 and 2015.
Kris Canekeratne, Virtusa’s Chairman and CEO, stated, “With this acquisition, we significantly increase our capabilities as we become a full service provider for finance transformation initiatives across our focus industry groups. We are already partnering with OSB on several large transformational programs and have seen firsthand the synergies in combining the strengths of both firms. We welcome OSB’s team members to Virtusa.”
Financial Outlook
Virtusa’s current guidance for the third fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2013 and the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2014 reflects the inclusion of OSB. Virtusa expects OSB to contribute revenue of approximately $1.5 million for the third fiscal quarter and approximately $4.0 million for the full fiscal year 2014. In addition, Virtusa expects OSB to be neutral to the Company’s earnings per share on a U.S. GAAP basis in the third fiscal quarter and for the full fiscal year 2014.
· Third quarter fiscal 2014 revenue is expected to be in the range of $100.0 to $102.0 million, with diluted EPS of $0.32 to $0.36.
· Fiscal year 2014 revenue is expected to be in the range of $390.0 to $396.0 million, with diluted EPS of $1.25 to $1.33.
The Company’s third quarter and fiscal year 2014 diluted EPS estimates assume an average share count of approximately 26.5 million and 26.4 million respectively (assuming no further exercises of stock-based awards), and assume a stock price of $31.28, which was derived from the average closing price of the Company’s stock over the five trading days ended on November 1, 2013. Deviations from this stock price may cause actual EPS to vary based on share dilution from Virtusa’s stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights.

Footnotes
(1) To determine year-over-year constant currency revenue for the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2014, revenue from entities reporting in U.K. pound sterling was converted into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2012 of 1.59 U.S. dollars to U.K. pounds sterling, rather than the actual exchange rate in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2013 of 1.56 U.S. dollars to U.K. pounds sterling. To determine sequential revenue change in constant currency for the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2014, revenue from entities reporting in U.K. pounds sterling was converted into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate in effect for the three months ended June 30, 2013 of 1.54 U.S. dollars to U.K. pounds sterling, rather than the actual exchange rate in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2013 of 1.56 U.S. dollars to U.K. pounds sterling.
(2) The Company considers the measure of cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments to be a more meaningful indicator of the Company’s overall liquidity. All of the Company’s investments are classified as available-for-sale, including the Company’s long-term investments which consist of fixed income securities, including government agency bonds and municipal and corporate bonds, which meet the credit rating and diversification requirements of the Company’s investment policy as approved by the Company’s audit committee and board of directors.
