ST. LOUIS, May 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amdocs Limited (NASDAQ: DOX) today reported operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

I am pleased to report strong results for the second fiscal quarter. Revenue was well above the midpoint of guidance and driven by our best-ever quarter in North America on a pro forma(2) basis where we are seeing healthy activity levels at AT&T, T-Mobile and various other customers across the region. At the operating level, we maintained our focus on consistent project delivery, which translated to healthy cash collections and robust free cash flow generation. Additionally, we returned a record cash amount of more than $400 million to shareholders this quarter, including the net proceeds received from the divesture of OpenMarket, as we had committed to previously, said Shuky Sheffer, president and chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

Sheffer continued, Accelerating the communications industrys journey to the cloud is core to Amdocs future growth and this quarter we took some important steps to further solidify our leadership in this domain. We are today pleased to announce the acquisition of Sourced Group, a leading global technology consultancy specializing in large-scale cloud transformations for sophisticated, high-end enterprise customers in different industries such as communications, financial services and others. Sourceds proven cloud migration platform, deployment framework and trusted design process, alongside its deep partnerships with Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform, complement our portfolio of cloud-native products and services and further expands and diversifies our customer base.

Sheffer concluded, I am pleased to report an improved outlook for revenue and earnings per share growth for the full fiscal year 2021, mainly driven by our expectation for a stronger second half. Our confidence is based on the visibility of our 12-month backlog, which is up more than 9% from a year ago on a pro forma(2) basis. Moreover, we are focused on maintaining our recent sales momentum by executing our growth strategy which we believe is well-aligned with our customers multi-year investments in digital modernization, 5G, cloud migration, and next-generation OSS platforms.

Revenue

Revenue for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $1,049 million, which on a pro forma basis(2) was up 5.7% in constant currency as compared to last years second fiscal quarter. Revenue was down $37 million as reported from the first fiscal quarter of 2021, mainly reflecting the divestiture of OpenMarket on December 31, 2020. Revenue was up 0.1% as reported and down 1.4% in constant currency as compared to last years second fiscal quarter. Revenue for the second fiscal quarter of 2021 includes a positive impact from foreign currency movements of approximately $3.3 million relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Revenue was above the midpoint of Amdocs guidance, and included negative impact from foreign currency movements of approximately $1 million compared to our guidance assumptions and contributions from recently completed acquisitions of less than $2 million which was not included in our guidance assumptions. Revenue for the second fiscal quarter of 2021 includes record managed services revenue of $635 million, up 5.1% as compared to last years second fiscal quarter and equivalent to approximately 61% of total revenue.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share

The Company's GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2021 was $119.1 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $127.0 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, in the prior fiscal years second quarter. Net income on a non-GAAP basis was $148.1 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $145.7 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Non-GAAP net income excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, equity-based compensation expenses, and other, net of related tax effects, in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 as well as in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

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

Returning Cash to Shareholders

-- Quarterly Cash Dividend Program: On May 12, 2021, the Board approved the Companys next quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.36 per share and set June 30, 2021 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive the dividend, which will be payable on July 23, 2021. -- Share Repurchase Activity: Repurchased a record $360 million of ordinary shares during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, including the return of the net proceeds from the divestiture of OpenMarket. The board of directors has approved a share repurchase plan authorizing the repurchase of up to $1 billion of ordinary shares at the companys discretion; this plan has no expiration date and is in addition to the current authorization, which, as of March 31, 2021, provided for up to $228 million of remaining repurchase authorization. Between the two authorizations, we have up to $1.228 billion of remaining repurchase authority.

Twelve-month BacklogTwelve-month backlog, which includes anticipated revenue related to contracts, estimated revenue from managed services contracts, letters of intent, maintenance and estimated on-going support activities, was $3.54 billion (excluding OpenMarket) at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021. On a pro forma(2) basis, twelve-month backlog was up approximately 9.3% as compared to last years second fiscal quarter.

ThirdQuarter Fiscal 2021 Outlook

-- Revenue of approximately $1,040-$1,080 million, assuming approximately $3 million sequential negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2021 and contributions from recently completed acquisitions -- GAAP diluted EPS of approximately $0.91-$0.99. The impact of recent acquisitions on GAAP diluted EPS will not be known until after Amdocs completes the purchase price allocation -- Non-GAAP diluted EPS of approximately $1.14-$1.20, excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, and approximately $0.08-$0.10 per share of equity-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects.

Full Year Fiscal 2021 Outlook

-- Full year fiscal 2021 revenue guidance reflects the divestiture of OpenMarket as of December 31, 2020 and incorporates an expected positive impact from foreign currency fluctuations of about 1.0% year-over-year as compared with a positive impact of about 1.2% year-over-year previously and a positive contribution from recently completed acquisitions of about 0.5% -- Expects pro forma(2) revenue growth of 5.0%-8.0% year-over-year on a constant currency basis as compared with 3.5%-7.5% year-over-year on a constant currency basis previously -- Expects revenue growth of 1.0%-4.0% year-over-year on a reported basis as compared with (0.3)% -3.7% year-over-year previously -- Expects revenue growth of 0.0%-3.0% year-over-year on a constant currency basis as compared with (1.5)% -2.5% year-over-year previously -- Expects GAAP diluted earnings per share growth of roughly 39.0%-44.0% year-over-year, including gain, net of tax, from divestiture of OpenMarket, as compared with 37.5%-44.5% year-over-year previously. The impact of recent acquisitions on GAAP diluted EPS will not be known until after Amdocs completes the purchase price allocation -- Expects non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth of roughly 6.0%-9.0% year-over-year as compared with 4.0%-8.0% year-over-year previously, excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, approximately $0.32-$0.36 per share of equity-based compensation expense, and gain from divestiture of OpenMarket, net of related tax effects. The impact of recent acquisitions on Amdocs non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is expected to be neutral in the full fiscal year 2021 -- Expects pro forma(2) non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth of roughly 7.5%-10.5% year-over-year as compared with 5.5%-9.5% year-over-year previously, excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisitions related liabilities measured at fair value, approximately $0.32-$0.36 per share of equity-based compensation expense, and gain from divestiture of OpenMarket, net of related tax effects -- Expects free cash flow of approximately $620 million, comprised of cash flow from operations, less net capital expenditures and other, as compared with $600 million previously -- Expects normalized free cash flow of approximately $820 million as compared with $800 million previously; normalized free cash flow excludes expected capital expenditure of $140 million related to the new campus development in Israel, $40 million of capital gains tax in relation to the divestiture of OpenMarket, and other items

Our third fiscal quarter 2021 and full year fiscal 2021 outlook takes into consideration the Companys 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 thatmarket dynamics continue to shift rapidly and wecannot predict all possible outcomes, including those resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, 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.

Conference Call Details Amdocs will host a conference call on May 12, 2021 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Company's second quarter of fiscal 2021 results. To participate, please dial +1 (844) 513-7152, or +1 (508) 637-5600 outside the United States, approximately 15 minutes before the call and enter passcode 3504547. The call will also be carried live on the Internet via the Amdocs website, www.amdocs.com.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresThis release includes non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other non-GAAP 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. These 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 liabilitiesmeasured 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.
