St. Louis, MO — January 20, 2010 — Amdocs Limited (NYSE: DOX) today reported that for its fiscal first quarter of 2010 ended December 31, 2009, revenue was $724.8 million, up 2.5% sequentially from the fiscal fourth quarter of 2009. As compared to last year’s first fiscal quarter, revenue decreased 3.9%. Net income on a non-GAAP basis was $113.1 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $116.3 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Non-GAAP net income excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets and equity-based compensation expenses of $24.8 million, net of related tax effects, in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and excludes such amortization, in-process research and development write-off, restructuring charges and equity-based compensation expenses of $42.0 million, net of related tax effects, in the first quarter of fiscal

 


 

2009. The Company’s GAAP net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 was $88.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $74.2 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the prior year’s first quarter.
“We are encouraged by our performance in the first fiscal quarter of 2010 as our business benefitted from a continued improvement in demand, strong execution, and modestly more favorable foreign exchange rates,” said Dov Baharav, chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.
Baharav continued, “As anticipated, managed services remains an area of strength for Amdocs. Today we announced two key agreements signed in the first quarter with AT&T and Bell Canada, demonstrating the strength of our long-term relationships with our largest managed services customers. We have also successfully proven that our managed services solutions, including modernization, can address the needs of smaller and emerging service providers, and we saw momentum with several new wins in this customer group during the first quarter, including DAVE Wireless. Additionally, activity has improved in our project-oriented businesses, and we are increasingly optimistic that Europe has stabilized.”
Baharav concluded, “As we emerge from the economic crisis, we feel even better about our competitive position than when we entered. We have improved our operating efficiencies and cost competitiveness, yet we have continued investing in innovation, exemplified by yesterday’s launch of Amdocs CES 8. These efforts, combined with our superior business model, are driving our success in winning new business globally with large and emerging service providers alike. Given our market position and the improved demand outlook, we are guiding to sequential revenue growth again in the second fiscal quarter, and we are now internally planning for sequential revenue growth of roughly 1-2% to persist throughout fiscal 2010.”
Financial Discussion of First Fiscal Quarter Results
Free cash flow was $170 million for the quarter, comprised of cash flow from operations of $194 million less approximately $24 million in net capital expenditures and other.

 


 

Twelve-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 $2.425 billion at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Financial Outlook
Amdocs expects that revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 will be approximately $730-$750 million. Amdocs expects diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter to be $0.52-$0.56, excluding acquisition-related costs and approximately $0.04-$0.05 per share of equity-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects. Amdocs estimates GAAP diluted earnings per share for the second quarter will be $0.40-$0.45.
Amdocs will host a conference call on January 20, 2010 at 5 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Company’s first quarter results. The call will be carried live on the Internet via the Amdocs website, www.amdocs.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow, non-GAAP cost of service, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP income taxes and non-GAAP net income. These non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:
    amortization of purchased intangible assets;
 
    in-process research and development write-off;
 
    restructuring charges;
 
    equity-based compensation expense; and
 
    tax effects related to the above.
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, non-GAAP cost of service, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP income taxes and non-GAAP net income, 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, in-process research and development write-off, restructuring charges, equity-based compensation expense, 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 non-cash expenses in reviewing its results and those of its competitors, because the amounts of the expenses between companies can vary greatly depending on the assumptions used by an individual company in determining the amounts of the expenses.
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 service, research and development, selling, general and administrative, operating income, 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.
