“I could not be prouder of our outstanding achievements in fiscal 2021, much of the credit for which belongs to our talented people worldwide. Over the last few years, we have been building Amdocs to support the next wave of growth, executing on our strategy of delivering market-leading innovation that is well aligned with the industry’s need for digital modernization, 5G monetization, journey to the cloud and network automation. We are at an exciting inflection point in our business as fiscal year 2021 revenue growth accelerated to 7.0% on a pro forma(2) constant currency(3) basis. We ended the year on a strong note, setting us up to continue to capture momentum as we enter fiscal year 2022. To that end, we are thrilled that AT&T has selected us for next-gen cloud operations of its business support systems evolution (BSSe) under a long-term agreement, on top of choosing our cloud-native products for the BSSe program earlier this year. We believe this reflects our relentless dedication to driving customer success across cloud journeys for the world’s leading communications service providers,” said Shuky Sheffer, president and chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.
“Amdocs continues to lead the industry with innovative platforms and exceptional delivery, as demonstrated by a record number of production milestones we achieved for our customers in Q4 and for the full 2021 fiscal year. Moreover, we delivered improved profitability in fiscal 2021 and achieved our best-ever level of cash collections. As a result, we delivered record normalized free cash flow generation of $869 million for fiscal 2021 and returned a similar amount to shareholders through share repurchases and quarterly cash dividend payments,” said Tamar Rapaport-Dagim, chief financial officer & chief operating officer of Amdocs Management Limited.
Sheffer concluded, “As we look ahead to fiscal year 2022, we believe we are in the early innings of a multi-year 5G and cloud-driven investment and transformation cycle. We see a rich pipeline of opportunity across the communications industry to enable our customers to create amazing experiences for consumers and enterprises. We believe our advantaged competitive position, growing customer relationships, highly skilled talent and disruptive innovation approach will further extend our lead in the market. Tying it altogether, we expect to deliver accelerated revenue growth of roughly 8%(5) in fiscal 2022.”

Our first fiscal quarter 2022 and full year fiscal 2022 outlook takes 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 COVID-19 pandemic, including its novel strains, which has 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.

Amdocs Limited NASDAQ: DOX Shuky Sheffer President & CEO Fiscal Q4 2021 Earnings Presentation November 2, 2021 Tamar Rapaport-Dagim CFO & COO Exhibit 99.2
Disclaimer The information contained herein in this presentation or delivered or to be delivered to you during this presentation does not constitute an offer, expressed or implied, or a recommendation to do any transaction in Amdocs Limited securities or in any securities of its affiliates or subsidiaries. This presentation and the comments made by members of Amdocs management in conjunction with it include information that constitutes forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about Amdocs’ growth and business results in future quarters. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be obtained or that any deviations will not be material. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause future results to differ from those anticipated. These risks include, but are not limited to, the effects of general economic conditions, the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and its impact on the global economy, Amdocs’ ability to grow in the business markets that it serves, Amdocs’ ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses, adverse effects of market competition, rapid technological shifts that may render the Company's products and services obsolete, potential loss of a major customer, our ability to develop long-term relationships with our customers, and risks associated with operating businesses in the international market. Amdocs may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future; however, Amdocs specifically disclaims any obligation to do so. These and other risks are discussed at greater length in Amdocs’ filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 filed on December 14, 2020 and our Form 6-K furnished for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 on February 16, 2021 and for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 on May 24, 2021 and for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 on August 16, 2021. This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating margin, free cash flow, normalized free cash flow, revenue on a constant currency basis, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share. 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 to be paid 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. Please refer to the appendix for a reconciliation of these metrics to the most comparable GAAP provision. This presentation also includes pro forma metrics which exclude the financial impact of OpenMarket (divested on December 31, 2020) from fiscal year 2021 and comparable fiscal year 2020, and the expected outlook for fiscal year 2022.
