JERSEY CITY, N.J., Aug. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amdocs Limited (NASDAQ: DOX), a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies, today reported operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

“Our solid third quarter operating performance reflects strong demand for Amdocs’ products and services across our core strategic growth pillars of 5G monetization, cloud adoption, digital modernization, and network automation. Record revenue of $1.16 billion was up 8.8%, or 10.8% from a year ago after adjusting for foreign currency⁽³⁾ headwinds. In addition to strong execution, our sales momentum was again robust this quarter. Among the notable wins, we secured a multi-year deal to accelerate Vodafone Germany’s digital transformation, and we ended Q3 with record 12-month backlog of $3.95 billion, up 10% from a year ago. To expand our SaaS-based cloud network and service assurance offering, we also announced the planned acquisition of MYCOM OSI, a strategic growth move that builds on our other recent successful acquisitions in the network and cloud space,” said Shuky Sheffer, president and chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

“We have delivered consistent profitability as we balanced accelerated R&D investments, foreign currency headwinds and a competitive labor market with disciplined project deployment and continued focus on operational excellence. Additionally, we delivered another record quarter in managed services, for which customer renewal rates have historically averaged nearly 100% over time. A prime example is a recent five-year managed services extension with AT&T’s Cricket Wireless, where we have expanded our relationship to leverage our latest cloud-native technologies, including incident management and next-generation digital catalog”, said Tamar Rapaport-Dagim, chief financial officer & chief operating officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

Sheffer concluded, “While we are closely monitoring the uncertain global macroeconomic environment, we are confident in our unique business model that includes mission critical products and services, highly recurring revenue streams and long-term customer engagements. More than ever, we believe Amdocs is positioned as a highly relevant and trusted partner to our customers, who require market-leading innovation to enable revenue growth, cost reduction and efficiency improvement in the 5G and cloud era. We remain on-track to deliver accelerated revenue growth of roughly 10% on a pro forma⁽²⁾, constant currency⁽³⁾ basis for the full year fiscal 2022, our visibility to which is supported by our record 12-month backlog and the rich pipeline of opportunity ahead.”

For further details of the reconciliation of selected financial metrics from GAAP to Non-GAAP, please refer to the tables below.

Capital Allocation: Returning Cash to Shareholders

• Quarterly Cash Dividend Program: On August3, 2022, the Board approved the Company’s next quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.395 per share and set September30, 2022 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive the dividend, which will be payable on October28, 2022
• Share Repurchase Activity: Repurchased $100 million of ordinary shares during the third quarter of fiscal 2022

Twelve-month Backlog
Twelve-month backlog was a record $3.95 billion at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022, up approximately 10% as compared to last year’s third fiscal quarter. Twelve-month backlog includes anticipated revenue related to contracts, estimated revenue from managed services contracts, letters of intent, maintenance and estimated on-going support activities.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2022 Outlook

• Fourth quarter revenue guidance assumes approximately $4 million sequential unfavorable impact from foreign currency fluctuations as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022
• Fourth quarter non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, and approximately $0.12-$0.14per share of equity-based compensation expense and other, net of related tax effects

Full Year Fiscal 2022 Outlook

• Full year fiscal 2022 revenue guidance incorporates an expected unfavorable impact from foreign currency fluctuations of approximately 1.2% year-over-year as compared with an unfavorable impact of about 0.8% year-over-year previously
• Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth, and pro forma⁽²⁾ non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth, excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, approximately $0.45-$0.47 per share of equity-based compensation expense, gain from divestiture of OpenMarket and other, net of related tax effects. Adjusted GAAP diluted earnings per share⁽⁴⁾ growth, excludes gain from divestiture of OpenMarket, net of related tax effects
• Non-GAAP effective tax rate is anticipated to be within a range of 13.0% to 17.0% for the full year fiscal 2022
• Free cash flow⁽¹⁾ is comprised of cash flow from operations, less net capital expenditures and other
• Normalized free cash flow excludes expected capital expenditure of $110 million related to the new campus development in Israel, and other items
   

Three Year Fiscal 2022-2024 Outlook

• In addition to our full year fiscal 2022 revenue guidance, we project revenue growth of 6% to 10% year-over-year on a constant currency⁽³⁾ basis in each of fiscal years 2023 and 2024
• Projecting revenue growth on an as reported basis in each of fiscal years 2023 and 2024 is not possible without unreasonable efforts given the uncertain impact of foreign exchange rates and acquisition activity which cannot be reasonably predicted at this time

Our fourth fiscal quarter 2022 and full year fiscal 2022, 2023 and 2024 forward looking projections take into consideration the Company’s current expectations regarding macro and industry specific risks and various uncertainties and certain assumptions that we will discuss on our earnings conference call. However, we note that market dynamics continue to shift rapidly and we cannot predict all possible outcomes, including those resulting from the prevailing level of macroeconomic, business and operational uncertainty and the COVID-19 pandemic, which have created, and continues to create, a significant amount of uncertainty, or from current and potential customer consolidation or their other strategic corporate activities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow and normalized free cash flow, revenue on a constant currency⁽³⁾ basis, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP interest and other expenses, net, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth. These other non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:         

• amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs;
• changes in certain acquisition-related liabilities measured at fair value;
• non-recurring and unusual charges or benefits (such as a gain from divestiture of OpenMarket);
• equity-based compensation expense;
• other; and
• tax effects related to the above.

Free cash flow equals cash generated by operating activities less net capital expenditures and other. Normalized free cash flow, a measure of our operating performance, is further adjusted to exclude net capital expenditures related to the new campus development, payments for non-recurring and unusual charges (such as capital gains tax in relation to the divestiture of OpenMarket), and payments of acquisition related liabilities. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Amdocs believes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Amdocs’ results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Amdocs’ results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Amdocs believes that the presentation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other financial measures, including free cash flow and normalized free cash flow, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP interest and other expenses, net, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations, as well as the net amount of cash generated by its business operations after taking into account capital spending required to maintain or expand the business.

For its internal budgeting process and in monitoring the results of the business, Amdocs’ management uses financial statements that do not include amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisition-related liabilities measured at fair value, non-recurring and unusual charges or benefits, equity-based compensation expense, other and related tax effects. Amdocs’ management also uses the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures, in reviewing the financial results of Amdocs. In addition, Amdocs believes that significant groups of investors exclude these items in reviewing its results and those of its competitors, because the amounts of the items between companies can vary greatly depending on the assumptions used by an individual company in determining the amounts of the items.

Amdocs further believes that, where the adjustments used in calculating non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are based on specific, identified amounts that impact different line items in the Consolidated Statements of Income (including cost of revenue, research and development, selling, general and administrative, operating income, interest and other expenses, net, income taxes and net income), it is useful to investors to understand how these specific line items in the Consolidated Statements of Income are affected by these adjustments. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Selected Financial Metrics from GAAP to Non-GAAP tables below.
