(2) Unaudited Interim Financial Information
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on May 28, 2020. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included, and all material adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected to occur for the entire fiscal year.
9
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis and reflect the financial statements of Virtusa Corporation and all of its subsidiaries that are directly or indirectly more than 50% owned or controlled. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity, but exerts a significant influence on the entity, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. For those majority-owned subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by the Company, the interests of the minority owners are accounted for as noncontrolling interests.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible assets, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Management re-evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis. The most significant estimates relate to the recognition of revenue and profits based on the percentage of completion method of accounting for fixed-price contracts, income taxes, including reserves for uncertain tax positions, deferred taxes and liabilities, intangible assets and valuation of financial instruments including derivative contracts and investments. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual amounts may vary from the estimates used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
At June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued employee compensation and benefits, other accrued expenses and long-term debt, approximate their fair values due to the nature of the items. See Note 6 for a discussion of the fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Unless otherwise discussed below, the adoption of new accounting standards did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. The FASB subsequently issued guidance which provide clarifications and improvements to this new standard. The amendments in this update changed how companies measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets. The new credit loss model requires companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets (including accounts receivables) that are in the scope of the update. The standard update also made amendments to the current impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This update is effective for public entities from fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
The Company adopted this standard (“ASC Topic 326”) effective April 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. Prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting policies. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, therefore, the Company did not record any cumulative adjustments to the opening retained earnings in the consolidated financial statements.
See Note 8, “Revenue and Accounts Receivable” for additional information regarding credit losses.
10
New Accounting Pronouncements
Unless otherwise discussed below, the Company believes the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as step up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized and when it should be considered a separate transaction, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
(3) Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share available to Virtusa common stockholders (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income, less any dividends and accretion of issuance cost on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. In computing diluted EPS, the Company adjusts the numerator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to add back the dividends (declared or cumulative undeclared) applicable to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Such add-back would also include any adjustments to equity in the period to accrete the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to its redemption price. The Company adjusts the denominator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to include the dilution from potential shares resulting from the issuance of restricted stock units, unvested restricted stock and stock options along with the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to common stock. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the periods set forth below:

(4) Business Combinations
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company acquired
Under the purchase method of accounting, assets acquired are recorded at their estimated fair values. The Company is in the process of obtaining additional information primarily regarding valuation assumptions, including contingent consideration and may continue to adjust the preliminary estimated fair values after obtaining more information regarding asset valuations and revision of preliminary estimates. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company paid $

(5) Investment Securities
At June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, all of the Company’s investment securities were classified as time deposits, available-for-sale debt securities and equity securities. These were carried on its balance sheet at their fair market value. A fair market value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs was used to measure each security (See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments).

The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses to determine whether a credit loss exists. The estimate of credit loss is determined by considering available information relevant to the collectability of the security and information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit loss is recorded as a charge to other income (expense), not to exceed the amount of the unrealized loss. Any excess unrealized loss greater than the credit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). We assess expected credit losses at the end of each reporting period and adjust the allowance through other income (expense). The Company does not hold any available-for-sale debt securities as of June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020.
Proceeds from sales of available-for-sale debt and equity securities and the gross gains and losses that have been included in earnings as a result of those sales were as follows:

(7) Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its foreign exchange policy on an ongoing basis to assess its ability to address foreign exchange exposures on its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and consolidated statement of cash flows from all foreign currencies, including most significantly the U.K. pound sterling and Indian rupee. The Company enters into hedging programs with highly rated financial institutions in accordance with its foreign exchange policy (as approved by the Company’s audit committee and board of directors) which permits hedging of material, known foreign currency exposures. There is no margin required, no cash collateral posted or received by us related to our foreign exchange forward contracts.
The U.S. dollar notional value of all outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts was $
The Company also uses interest rate swaps to mitigate the Company’s interest rate risk on the Company’s variable rate debt. The Company’s objective is to limit the variability of cash flows associated with changes in LIBOR interest rate payments due on the Credit Agreement (See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements), by using pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps to offset the future variable rate interest payments. The Company will recognize these transactions in accordance with ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging," and have designated the swaps as cash flow hedges.
The Company purchased interest rate swaps in July 2016 with an effective date of July 2017 and in November 2018. The July 2016 interest rate swaps are at a blended weighted average of

Receivables and Contract Balances
The Company classifies its right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a contract asset. A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional (i.e. only the passage of time is required before payment is due). The Company presents such receivables in accounts receivable or unbilled accounts receivable, in its consolidated statements of financial position at their net estimated realizable value.
Contract assets included in unbilled accounts receivable are recorded when services have been provided but the Company does not have an unconditional right to receive consideration. Contract assets are primarily related to unbilled amounts on fixed-price contracts utilizing the input method of revenue recognition. The timing between services rendered and timing of payment is less than one year. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the contract carrying amount is greater than the remaining consideration receivable, less directly related costs to be incurred.

Remaining performance obligation
ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers requires that the Company discloses the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied as of December 31, 2019. This disclosure is not required for:
(1) | contracts with an original duration of one year or less, including contracts that can be terminated for convenience without a substantive penalty, |
(2) | contracts for which the Company recognizes revenues based on the right to invoice for services performed, |
(3) | variable consideration allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-14(b), for which the criteria in ASC 606-10-32-40 have been met, or |
(4) | variable consideration in the form of a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property. |
Many of the Company’s performance obligations meet one or more of these exemptions. As of June 30, 2020, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, other than those meeting the exclusion criteria above, was $

Allowance for Credit Losses on Accounts Receivable
The allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable is determined using the loss-rate approach and is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Where financial instruments do not share risk characteristics, they are evaluated on an individual basis. The Company calculates expected credit losses for accounts receivable based on historical credit loss rates for each aging category as adjusted for the current market conditions and forecasts about future economic conditions. The allowance is based on relevant available information, from internal and
19
external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable:

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company merged Polaris Consulting and Software Limited (“Polaris”) with into Virtusa Consulting Services Private Limited (“Virtusa India”). The merger of Polaris into Virtusa India is considered an entity liquidation for US income tax purposes. The earnings of this entity will be subject to US taxation as well as local taxation with a corresponding foreign tax credit or deduction, at the election of the Company. The election also makes available to the Company the benefits of future foreign tax credits. The merger makes available to the Company tax deductions for interest on debt used to purchase the group as well as amortization of intangible assets. Under local Indian law, the merger was retroactive to April 1, 2018 resulting in amended tax return filing in India for the year ended March 31, 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020, reflects the merger of Polaris India into Virtusa India.
The Company’s income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes the expected impact of the Global Intangible Low-taxed Income (“GILTI”) and executive compensation limitations of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) impacting the operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company’s aggregate income tax rate in foreign jurisdictions is comparable to its income tax rate in the United States, as a result of the Tax Act, other than in Singapore and Sri Lanka in which the Company has tax holiday benefits and eligible tax exemptions respectively.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, the Company elected to treat several foreign entities as disregarded entities. The earnings of these subsidiaries will be subject to US taxation as well as local taxation with a corresponding foreign tax credit or deduction, at the election of the Company. GILTI provisions and executive compensation limitations enacted in the Tax Act, enacted on December 22, 2017 by the U.S. government continue to impact the results. The Company’s reported effective tax rate is also impacted by jurisdictional mix of profits and losses in which the Company operates, foreign statutory tax rates in effect, unusual or infrequent discrete items requiring a provision and certain exemptions or tax holidays applicable to the Company.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act provided for net operating losses arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2021, may be carried back to each of the five tax years preceding the tax year of such loss. Net operating losses have an unlimited carry forward period, although there are annual limitations on their use suspended for certain years as result of CARES Act. The Company has filed an immediate carry back claim in the United States for losses generated in fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019. The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020, included an immaterial adjustment to reflect actual tax receivable.

In addition, the Company’s Sri Lankan subsidiary, Virtusa (Private) Limited, was operating under a
The Company has been under income tax examination in India, the U.K., Singapore and the United States. The Indian taxing authorities issued an assessment order with respect to their examination of the various tax returns for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2006 to March 31, 2017 of the Company’s Indian subsidiary, Virtusa (India) Private Ltd, and Polaris Consulting & Services Limited (Polaris India) now merged with and into Virtusa Consulting Services Private Limited (collectively referred to as “Virtusa India”). At issue were several matters, the most significant of which was the redetermination of the arm’s-length profit which should be recorded by Virtusa India on the intercompany transactions with its affiliates. These matters are currently at different level of appeals beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. In the United Kingdom, the Company is currently under examination for transfer pricing and research benefits for the years ended March 31, 2014 to March 31, 2018. In Singapore, the Inland Revenue Authority is confirming the appropriateness of the Company’s deductions for the year ended March 31, 2017. In the United States, the Internal Revenue Service has concluded an examination of fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2017. These ongoing audits are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows.
Unrecognized tax benefits represent uncertain tax positions for which the Company has established reserves. At June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the total liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $
Undistributed Earnings of Foreign Subsidiaries
A substantial amount of the Company’s income before provision for income tax is from operations earned in its Indian and Sri Lankan subsidiaries. The Company intends to use accumulated and future earnings of foreign subsidiaries to expand operations outside the United States and, accordingly, undistributed income is considered indefinitely reinvested. The Company does not provide for U.S. income taxes on foreign currency translation or applicable withholding tax until a distribution is declared. At June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $

(16) Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees.
The Company indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences under its charter or by-laws and under indemnification agreements while the officer or director is, or was, serving at its request in a defined capacity. The term of the indemnification period is with respect to the period that such person was an officer or director of the Company. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification obligations is unlimited. The costs incurred to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification obligations have not been material. As a result, the Company believes that its estimated exposure on these obligations is minimal. Accordingly, the Company had
The Company is insured against any actual or alleged act, error, omission, neglect, misstatement or misleading statement or breach of duty by any current or former officer, director or employee while rendering information technology services. The Company believes that its financial exposure from such actual or alleged actions, should they arise, is minimal and
From time to time the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation related to employee claims, contractual disputes and taxes in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When a material loss contingency is reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can be made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of such matters, the Company has no reason to believe the disposition of any current matter, other than the specific matters described below, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s balance sheets, income of operations and cash flows or the ability to carry on any of its business activities. This assessment is based on our current understanding of relevant facts and circumstances. As such, our view of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and may change in the future.
One of the Company’s larger clients made a demand for damages related to a project in which the Company was performing services. The client alleges breaches of certain representations and warranties regarding the Company’s performance and is seeking indemnification for damages from those alleged breaches.
On February 28, 2019, the Supreme Court of India issued a ruling interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers, which altered historical understandings of such obligations, extending them to cover additional portions of employee income. As a result, contributions by our employees and the Company will increase in future periods. There is uncertainty as to whether the Indian government will apply the Supreme Court's ruling on a retroactive basis and if so, how this liability should be calculated as it is impacted by multiple variables, including the period of assessment, the application with respect to certain current and former employees and whether interest and penalties may be assessed. As such, the ultimate amount of our obligation is difficult to quantify. If the Indian government were to apply the Supreme Court ruling retroactively, without assessing interest and penalties, the impact would be a charge of approximately $

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 (the “Annual Report”), which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.
Forward-looking statements

29
(“DTS”) engineering tools to drive software development lifecycle automation to improve quality, enabling speed and increasing productivity. Our proprietary DTS was built by Virtusa’s engineering teams that have decades of industry knowledge and experience. These teams are certified and leverage Virtusa’s industry leading tools and assets, providing increased speed and transparency.
Headquartered in Massachusetts, we have offices throughout the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Asia, with significant global delivery centers in the United States, India, Sri Lanka, Hungary, Singapore and Malaysia. We also have many employees who work with our clients either onsite or virtually, which offers flexibility for both clients and employees. At June 30, 2020, we had 22,716 employees, or team members.
In fiscal year 2020, we initiated a multi-year strategy to increase our revenue growth, operating margin accretion, and earnings per share growth. Our strategy focuses on three fundamental pillars: increasing profitable revenue growth by targeting large digital and cloud transformation engagements, achieving greater revenue diversification, categorized by geography, industry and client, and increasing gross and operating margins through pyramid efficiencies, project profitability and general and administrative expense leverage.
The significant negative impact of COVID-19 on the global economy has created near-term challenges for us and the entire IT services industry. Simultaneously, the global pandemic has revealed unique opportunities for us to strengthen and advance our three-pillar plan. As a result, in late fiscal year 2020 and early fiscal year 2021, we launched several new initiatives under our three-pillar strategy designed to enable us to navigate the pandemic’s near-term economic impacts, and strengthen our overall market, financial and operational positioning going forward.
Our fiscal year 2021 plan builds on and strengthens our three-pillar strategy of increased profitable revenue growth, revenue and client diversification, and margin expansion. On the first pillar, we are increasing our efforts to capture new opportunities created by a change in Global 2000 enterprises’ buying behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, in late fiscal year 2020, we launched several go-to-market campaigns targeting remote workforce enablement, cost reduction and efficiency programs, and end-to-end deep digital transformation. In addition to our COVID-19 specific actions, we are also sharpening our sales and marketing efforts in fiscal year 2021 to target an increasing number of large, recurring, high-margin, and faster growing digital and cloud transformation engagements.
On the second pillar of revenue and client diversification, while our progress in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 was offset by the impact of COVID-19 on overall client demand, we believe that we continued to make headway against our long-term goals of a more diversified portfolio of geographies, industries and accounts. Our recent efforts to increase our geographic diversification, including the realignment of our regional supervision and key local leadership hires made in Europe and the Middle East continued to drive closer relationships with our clients in Europe, Middle East and Asia, and thus increased opportunities in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. With respect to industry group diversification, our first quarter fiscal 2021 results reflect continued steady progress. Our Communications and Technology (C&T) industry group revenue grew 3.3% year-over-year in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and C&T as a percentage of total revenue increased 200 basis points from 22% to 24% over the same time period in fiscal 2020. Our Media, Information and Other revenue increased 16.6% year-over-year in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. We broke out our Healthcare industry group revenue for the first time in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 to provide our investors with increased transparency into this high-potential industry vertical. In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, Healthcare revenue was 14% of our total revenue. Lastly, our Banking, Financial Services and Insurance revenue mix continued to decline in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 to 55% of our total revenue from 57% in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Given the significant opportunity we have to continue expanding our presence in high-growth sectors such as High-Tech and Healthcare, in fiscal year 2021 we plan on increasing our investments in our domain expertise, skills, and sales and marketing programs in these sectors.
Regarding client level diversification, we recognize the importance over the long-term to reduce revenue concentration at our largest accounts and capture increasing organic growth opportunities across the remainder of our account base. To do so, in fiscal year 2021, we will direct more of our sales and marketing efforts toward smaller accounts that have the ability to expand significantly with us. We have had success with this strategy at our strategic clients. We will apply these same techniques to grow high potential accounts faster than our total company in order to accelerate account diversification.
Finally, with respect to Virtusa’s third pillar, margin expansion, our fiscal year 2021 plan includes several strategies underway aimed to improve our gross and operating margins by reducing our costs and creating operating efficiencies. Specifically, our fiscal year 2021 plan includes actions underway to improve pyramid efficiencies, reduce the
30
use of sub-contractors, increase utilization, and reduce general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, our gross and operating margin performance exceeded our expectations, driven in part by higher utilization and execution of our cost containment initiatives.
Recent developments
COVID-19 and factors impacting our business and operating results
During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the global pandemic related to COVID-19 presented significant challenges and adversely impacted our business and operating results. We are unable at this time to predict the full impact of COVID-19 on our operations, liquidity and financial results, and, depending on the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, such impact may be material. We expect to see continued adverse impacts to our revenue, earnings and cash flows due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter of fiscal 2021, which may also continue into the third quarter or beyond. Accordingly, current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends. Refer to “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report for further discussion of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Virtusa quickly initiated a rigorous plan to protect the health and safety of its global team members, while continuing to serve clients in a safe and sustainable manner. As the world faces unprecedented challenges caused by COVID-19, Virtusa is committed to doing everything possible to help our team members and clients manage through these turbulent times. Actions include:
● | Enacted a Work-From-Home policy starting March 9, 2020. Today, over 98% of Virtusa’s global billable team members are enabled to work from home. |
● | Conduct regular weekly meetings by Virtusa’s COVID-19 Task Force to coordinate the Company’s ongoing response to the pandemic and develop initiatives focused on safety protocols for personnel and facilities, team member support, technology enablement, productivity, and communications with clients to manage the crisis. |
● | Proactively launched a series of new services and solutions tailored to help clients address the challenges created by COVID-19, including Hyper Distributed Agile Services, Agile Squads, and Release Assurance. |
● | Implemented a comprehensive cost reduction and efficiency plan across delivery, shared services and professional services. |
Financial overview
In the three months ended June 30, 2020, our revenue decreased by 5.6% to $301.1 million, compared to $319.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019.
In the three months ended June 30, 2020, our income from operations decreased by 46.7% to $7.2 million, compared to $13.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019.
In the three months ended June 30, 2020, net income (loss) available to Virtusa common stockholders decreased by 104.1% to a net loss of $(0.2) million, as compared to a net income of $4.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019.
The decrease in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily resulted from:
● | Impact from COVID-19 pandemic, primarily due to business interruptions and project delays, as well as elongated client decision making cycles |
● | Decline in revenue from Europe, primarily driven by one of our large European banking clients |
31
● | Decrease in several of our top ten clients, primarily in our healthcare industry group |
● | Productivity savings provided to our largest client as part of the vendor consolidation process |
partially offset by:
● | Increase in our largest telecommunication client and revenue from several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 |
The key drivers of the decrease in our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, were as follows:
● | Decrease in revenue, primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic |
● | Substantial increase in foreign currency transaction losses, primarily related to the revaluation of Indian rupee denominated intercompany note, primarily due to substantial depreciation of the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar. |
● | Increase in interest expense related to an increase in our outstanding debt under our credit facility |
partially offset by:
● | Decrease in costs of revenue and operating expense, reflecting cost reduction initiatives in response to weakening of demand across our clients’ due to the COVID-19 pandemic |
● | Decrease in income tax expense, including tax benefit related to our merger of our India operations |
High repeat business and client concentration are common in our industry. During the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 96% and 98%, respectively, of our revenue was derived from clients who had been using our services for more than one year. Accordingly, our global account management and service delivery teams focus on expanding client relationships and converting new engagements to long-term relationships to generate repeat revenue and expand revenue streams from existing clients. We also have a dedicated business development team focused on generating engagements with new clients to continue to expand our client base and, over time, reduce client concentration.
We derive our revenue from two types of service offerings: application outsourcing, which is recurring in nature; and consulting, including technology implementation, which is non-recurring in nature. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, our application outsourcing and consulting revenue represented 54% and 46%, respectively, of our total revenue as compared to 57% and 43%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
In the three months ended June 30, 2020, our North America revenue decreased by 2.7%, or $6.2 million, to $224.3 million, or 74.5% of total revenue, from $230.5 million, or 72.2% of total revenue, in the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in North America revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the decrease in revenue from clients in our healthcare industry group, partially offset by revenue from several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
In the three months ended June 30, 2020, our European revenue decreased by 20.0%, or $12.7 million, to $50.4 million, or 16.7% of total revenue, from $63.1 million, or 19.8% of total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in European revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to a decline in revenue from one of our large banking clients, partially offset by increase in our largest telecommunication client.
Our gross profit decreased by $15.7 million to $68.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $84.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, was primarily due to lower revenue, higher
32
onsite effort and an increase in subcontractor costs partially offset by decrease in travel and related expense as well as cost optimization programs with respect to our subcontractors implemented in the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin decreased from 26.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 22.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
We perform our services under both time-and-materials and fixed-price contracts. Revenue from fixed-price contracts represented 41% and 40% of total revenue, and revenue from time-and-materials contracts represented 59% and 60% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The revenue earned from fixed-price contracts in the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily reflects our client preferences.
As an IT services company, our revenue growth is highly dependent on our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain skilled IT professionals. We monitor our overall attrition rates and patterns to align our people management strategy with our growth objectives. At June 30, 2020, our attrition rate for the trailing 12 months, which reflects voluntary and involuntary attrition as part of our cost reduction initiatives, was approximately 24.1%. Our attrition rate at June 30, 2020 reflects a higher rate of attrition as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The majority of our attrition occurs in India and Sri Lanka, and is weighted towards the more junior members of our staff. In response to higher attrition and as part of our retention strategies, we have experienced increases in compensation and benefit costs, which may continue in the future. However, we try to absorb such cost increases through price increases or cost management strategies such as managing discretionary costs, the mix of professional staff and utilization levels and achieving other operating efficiencies. If our attrition rate increases or is sustained at higher levels, our growth may slow and our cost of attracting and retaining IT professionals could increase.
We engage in a foreign currency hedging strategy using foreign currency forward contracts designed to hedge fluctuations in the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar and the GBP, as well as the euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and the GBP against the U.S. dollar, when consolidated into U.S. dollars. There is no assurance that these hedging programs or hedging contracts will be effective. Because these foreign currency forward contracts are designed to reduce volatility in the Indian rupee, GBP and euro exchange rates, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger Indian rupee, weaker GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar but also could reduce the positive impact of a weaker Indian rupee on our Indian rupee expenses or reduce the impact of a stronger GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar on our GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar denominated revenues.
Application of critical accounting estimates and risks
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible assets, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, in particular those related to the recognition of revenue and profits based on the percentage of completion method of accounting for fixed-price contracts, share-based compensation, income taxes, including reserves for uncertain tax positions, deferred taxes and liabilities, intangible assets and valuation of financial instruments including derivative contracts and investments. Actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates. Our management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Additional information about these critical accounting policies may be found in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section included in the Annual Report.

Revenue
Revenue decreased by 5.6%, or $17.9 million, from $319.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $301.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to decrease in revenue from several of our top ten clients, primarily in our healthcare industry group, productivity savings provided to our largest client as part of the vendor consolidation process and a decline in revenue from one of our large European banking clients, partially offset by increase in revenue from our largest telecommunication client and several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Revenue from North American clients in the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by $6.2 million, or 2.7%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, particularly due to the decrease in revenue from clients in the healthcare industry group, partially offset by revenue from several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Revenue from European clients decreased by $12.7 million, or 20.0%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to decline in revenue from one of our large banking clients, partially offset by increase in revenue from our largest telecommunication client. We had 224 active clients at June 30, 2020, as compared to 217 active clients at June 30, 2019.
Cost of revenue
Costs of revenue decreased from $234.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $232.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 1.0%. The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily due to decrease in travel and related expenses of $6.8 million, partially offset by an increase in subcontractor costs of $1.9 million and an increase in the number of IT professionals and related compensation and benefit costs of $1.6 million, which also reflect certain cost reduction actions initiated during the three months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020, we had 20,609 IT professionals as compared to 19,911 at June 30, 2019. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased from 73.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 77.2% for three months ended June 30, 2020.
Gross profit
Our gross profit decreased by $15.7 million, or 18.6%, to $68.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $84.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in revenue, an increase in subcontractor costs and higher onsite effort, partially offset by a decrease in travel and related expenses as well as cost
34
optimization programs with respect to our subcontractors implemented in the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin was 26.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 22.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in gross margin during the three months ended June 30, 2020, was primarily driven by lower revenue, increase in subcontractor costs, higher onsite effort and lower utilization.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses decreased from $70.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $61.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $9.5 million, or 13.3%. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease of $5.2 million in compensation expense, including stock and variable compensation expense as well as cost reduction initiatives. The decrease in operating expense was also due to a decrease in travel and related expenses of $3.2 million and a decrease in facilities costs of $0.7 million. As a percentage of revenue, our operating expenses decreased from 22.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 20.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Income from operations
Income from operations decreased by 46.7%, from $13.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $7.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations decreased from 4.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 2.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease in revenue, increase in subcontractor costs and higher onsite effort, partially offset by decrease in operating expense.
Other expense
Other expense increased by $3.3 million, from $2.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $6.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020, primary due to an increase in net foreign currency transaction losses related to the revaluation of a $240.4 million Indian rupee denominated intercompany note, primarily due to a substantial depreciation of the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar and an increase in interest expense related to our credit facility, primarily related to increase in the borrowings and interest rate.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense decreased by $4.4 million, from $4.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our effective tax rate decreased from 44.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 25.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in tax expense and effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020, was primarily due to a decrease in income from operations, the election of foreign tax credits, lower statutory rates in India and the merger of our Indian operations. The merger permits previous nondeductible items to be deducted in computing taxable income.
Noncontrolling interests
In connection with the Polaris acquisition, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a noncontrolling interest of $0.2 million, representing a 3.0%, share of profits of Polaris held by parties other than Virtusa. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Polaris merged with and into Virtusa India, with Virtusa India being the surviving entity. As of March 31, 2020, we own 100% of Polaris shares.
Net income available to Virtusa stockholders
Net income available to Virtusa stockholders decreased by $4.9 million or 84.7%, from $5.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $0.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in net income in the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in revenue and income from operations, an increase in foreign currency transaction losses and an increase in interest expense related to our credit facility, partially offset by a decrease in income tax expense.
35
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock dividends and accretion
In connection with the preferred stock financing transaction with the Orogen Group, we accrued dividends and accreted issuance costs of $1.1 million at a rate of 3.875% per annum during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Net income (loss) available to Virtusa common stockholders
Net income (loss) available to Virtusa common stockholders decreased by $4.9 million or 104.1%, from a net income of $4.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019 to a net loss of $(0.2) million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in net income in the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in revenue and income from operations, an increase in foreign currency transaction losses and an increase in interest expense related to our credit facility, partially offset by a decrease in income tax expense.
Non-GAAP Measures
We include certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by Regulation G by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures should be read in conjunction with our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
We consider the total measure of cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments to be an important indicator of our overall liquidity. All of our investments are classified as time deposits, available-for-sale debt securities and equity securities, including our long-term investments which meet the credit rating and diversification requirements of our investment policy as approved by our audit committee and board of directors.
The following table provides the reconciliation from cash and cash equivalents to total cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments:

Liquidity and capital resources
We have financed our operations primarily from sales of shares of common stock, cash from operations, debt financing and from sales of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Our ability to expand and grow our business to execute our strategic objectives will depend on many factors, including our willingness to make opportunistic acquisitions, strategic investments and partnerships.
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, which had and is having a negative business impact on our operations, in March 2020, we drew down approximately $84.0 million dollars from our revolving credit facility to supplement our liquidity and working capital in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our clients and our results of operations. For additional liquidity, on May 27, 2020, we entered into Amendment No. 3 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “ Administrative Agent” ) and the lenders party thereto (the “ Third Credit
38
Agreement Amendment” ), which amends the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2018, with such parties (as amended, “Credit Agreement” ) to, among other things, (i) provide for $62.5 million in incremental 364-day delayed draw term loans (the “New Delayed Draw Term Loans” ), which can be drawn down up to three times on or before September 27, 2020 and (ii) extend out the debt to EBITDA ratio covenant step down by two quarters such that the leverage covenant remains at 3.25:1.00 through December 31, 2020. The Company can use the proceeds of the New Delayed Draw Term Loans to fund general working capital and refinance existing indebtedness under the credit facility. On May 27, 2020, the Company prepaid $55.0 million on its existing revolving facility as a condition to closing the Third Credit Agreement Amendment. The Third Credit Agreement Amendment contains customary terms for amendments of this type, such as representations, warranties and covenants, including pro forma compliance with the Credit Agreement debt to EBITDA covenant as a condition to borrowing. Interest under the New Delayed Draw Term Loans accrues at a rate per annum of LIBOR plus 3.50%.
On October 15, 2019, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”) and the lenders party thereto (the “Second Credit Agreement Amendment”), which amends the Credit Agreement to, among other things, increase the revolving commitments available to us under the Credit Agreement from $200.0 million to $275.0 million, reduce the interest rate margins applicable to term loans and revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement from time to time and reduce the commitment fee payable by us to the lenders in respect of unused revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement. We executed the Second Credit Agreement Amendment to provide additional lending capacity which we used to fund the completion of the Polaris delisting transaction, as well as to provide excess lending capacity in the event of future opportunistic, strategic, investment opportunities. The Second Credit Agreement Amendment contains customary terms for amendments of this type, including representations, warranties and covenants. Interest under the credit facility accrues at a rate per annum of LIBOR plus 2.75%, subject to step-downs based on the Company’s ratio of debt to EBITDA. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company drew down $145.0 million from the credit facility, inclusive of $84.0 million drawn in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as a proactive measure in light of the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier draws in the fiscal year March 31, 2020 were used to fund the eTouch 18-month anniversary payment of $17.5 million and to fund opportunistic, strategic, investment opportunities.
For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, we are required to make principal payments of $4.3 million per quarter. The term of the Credit Agreement is five years ending February 6, 2023. At June 30, 2020, the total outstanding amount under the Credit Agreement was $440.6 million. At June 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan and revolving line of credit was 3.75%.
The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including all intellectual property and all securities in domestic subsidiaries (other than certain domestic subsidiaries where the material assets of such subsidiaries are equity in foreign subsidiaries), subject to customary exceptions and exclusions from the collateral. All obligations under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s material direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, with certain exceptions. These guarantees are secured by substantially all of the present and future property and assets of the guarantors, with certain exclusions.
At June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants set forth in our Credit Agreement. Based upon our current plans, we expect our operating cash flows, together with our cash and short-term investment balances, to be sufficient to meet our operating requirements and service our debt for the foreseeable future. However, given the dynamic nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurances that its future impact will not have a material adverse effect on our ongoing business, results of operations, liquidity needs, debt covenant compliance or overall financial performance.
At June 30, 2020, we had approximately $289.3 million of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and long term investments, of which we hold approximately $191.2 million of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and long-term investments in non-U.S. locations, particularly in India, Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom. Cash in these non-U.S. locations may not otherwise be available for potential investments or operations in the United States or certain other geographies where needed, as we have stated that this cash is indefinitely reinvested in these non-U.S. locations. If our intent were to change and we elected to repatriate this cash back to the United States, or this cash was deemed no longer permanently invested, this cash could be subject to additional taxes and the change in such intent could have an adverse effect on our cash balances as well as our overall statement of income. Notwithstanding these limitations, in April
39
2020, we were able to repatriate $25.0 million of cash from our India entity to our U.S. entity, without tax implication, to support our U.S. legal entity’s liquidity needs. Due to various methods by which cash could be repatriated to the United States in the future, the amount of taxes attributable to the cash is dependent on circumstances existing if and when remittance occurs. In addition, some countries could have restrictions on the movement and exchange of foreign currencies which could further limit our ability to use such funds for global operations or capital or other strategic investments. Due to the various methods by which such earnings could be repatriated in the future, it is not practicable to determine the amount of applicable taxes that would result from such repatriation.
We believe that our sources of funding will be sufficient to satisfy our currently anticipated cash requirements including capital expenditures, working capital requirements, potential acquisitions, strategic investments and other liquidity requirements through at least the next 12 months.
To the extent that existing cash from operations is insufficient to fund our working capital needs and other cash obligations, we may raise additional funds through debt or equity financing. We cannot give any assurance that additional financing, if required, will be available on favorable terms or at all.
We do not believe the deemed repatriation tax on accumulated foreign earnings related to the Tax Act will have a significant impact on our cash flows in any individual fiscal year.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, we completed multiple tuck-in asset and business acquisitions for an aggregate purchase price consideration of $49.6 million, with an additional earn-out consideration of $38.7 million, which, if earned, would be payable over the next two fiscal years. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we paid $6.3 million and $1.2 million in deferred consideration and earn-out consideration respectively related to these tuck-in acquisitions. As of June 30, 2020, the balance of contingent consideration is $22.1 million, of which $18.0 million is expected to be paid within the next 12 months.
On December 31, 2019, in connection with a request for proposal (“RFP”) and vendor consolidation process conducted by Citigroup Technology, Inc. (“Citi”), and as part of the Company being one of the vendors selected to continue preferred vendor status at Citi and have the opportunity to compete for additional vendor consolidation work, the Company and Citi entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Master Professional Services Agreement, by and between the Company and Citi, dated as of July 1, 2015, as amended (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, (i) Citi agreed to maintain the Company as a preferred vendor under the Resource Management Organization for the provision of IT services to Citi on an enterprise wide basis, (ii) the Company agreed to provide certain savings to Citi for the period from April 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (“Savings Period”), which savings can be achieved through productivity and efficiency measures and associated reduced spend; provided that if these productivity and efficiency measures do not achieve the projected savings amounts, the Company is required to provide certain discounts to Citi for the Savings Period to achieve the savings commitments; and (iii) to the extent that Citi awards the Company additional or new work in addition to the services covered by the RFP, the Company agreed to provide Citi with a certain percentage of savings (whether achieved through productivity measures, efficiencies, discounts or otherwise) as a condition to performing such services.
On May 3, 2017, we entered into an investment agreement with The Orogen Group (“Orogen”) pursuant to which Orogen purchased 108,000 shares of the Company’s newly issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, initially convertible into 3,000,000 shares of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $108.0 million with an initial conversion price of $36.00 (the “Orogen Preferred Stock Financing”). In connection with the investment, Vikram S. Pandit, the former CEO of Citigroup, was appointed to Virtusa’s Board of Directors. Orogen is an operating company that was created by Vikram Pandit and Atairos Group, Inc., an independent private company focused on supporting growth-oriented businesses, to leverage the opportunities created by the evolution of the financial services landscape and to identify and invest in financial services companies and related businesses with proven business models.
Under the terms of the investment, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a 3.875% dividend per annum, payable quarterly in additional shares of common stock and/or cash at our option. If any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have not been converted into common stock prior to May 3, 2024, the Company will be required to repurchase such shares at a repurchase price equal to the liquidation preference of the repurchased shares plus the amount of accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon. If we fail to effect such repurchase, the dividend rate on the Series A
40
Convertible Preferred Stock will increase by 1% per annum and an additional 1% per annum on each anniversary of May 3, 2024 during the period in which such failure to effect the repurchase is continuing, except that the dividend rate will not increase to more than 6.875% per annum. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company paid $1.0 million as a cash dividend on its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
The Company also uses interest rate swaps to mitigate the Company’s interest rate risk on the Company’s variable rate debt. The Company’s objective is to limit the variability of cash flows associated with changes in LIBOR interest rate payments due on the Credit Agreement (See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements), by using pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps to offset the future variable rate interest payments. The Company purchased interest rate swaps in July 2016 with an effective date of July 2017 and November 2018. The July 2016 interest rate swaps are at a blended weighted average of 1.025% and the Company will receive 1-month LIBOR on the same notional amounts. The November 2018 interest rate swaps are at a fixed rate of 2.85% and are designed to maintain a 50% coverage of our LIBOR debt, therefore the notional amount changes over the life of the swap to retain the 50% coverage target.
The counterparties to the Interest Rate Swap Agreements could demand an early termination of the June 2016 and November 2018 Swap Agreements if we are in default under the Credit Agreement, or any agreement that amends or replaces the Credit Agreement in which the counterparty is a member, and we are unable to cure the default. An event of default under the Credit Agreement includes customary events of default and failure to comply with financial covenants, including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio commencing on December 31, 2017, , of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 for all periods thereafter ending prior to December 31, 2019, of not more than 3.25 to 1.00 commencing December 31, 2019 and for periods thereafter through December 2021, and 3.00 to 1.00 thereafter and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with these covenants. The net unrealized loss associated with Interest Rate Swap Agreement was $11.2 million as of June 30, 2020, which represents the estimated amount that we would pay to the counterparties in the event of an early termination.
From time to time, the Company enters into arrangements to deliver IT services that include upfront payments to our clients. As of June 30, 2020, the total unamortized upfront payments related to these services were $29.3 million and are expected to be amortized as a reduction to revenue over a benefit period of 4 years.
Beginning in fiscal 2009, our U.K. subsidiary entered into an agreement with an unrelated financial institution to sell, without recourse, certain of its Europe-based accounts receivable balances from one client to the financial institution. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we sold $13.2 million of receivables under the terms of the financing agreement. Fees paid pursuant to this agreement were not material during the three months ended June 30, 2020. No amounts were due under the financing agreement at June 30, 2020, but we may elect to use this program again in future periods. However, we cannot provide any assurances that this or any other financing facilities will be available or utilized in the future.
On February 28, 2019, the Supreme Court of India issued a ruling interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers, which altered historical understandings of such obligations, extending them to cover additional portions of employee income. As a result, contributions by our employees and the Company will increase in future periods. There is uncertainty as to whether the Indian government will apply the Supreme Court's ruling on a retroactive basis and if so, how this liability should be calculated as it is impacted by multiple variables, including the period of assessment, the application with respect to certain current and former employees and whether interest and penalties may be assessed. As such, the ultimate amount of our obligation is difficult to quantify. If the Indian Government were to apply the Supreme Court ruling retroactively, without assessing interest and penalties, the impact would be a charge of approximately $7.5 million to our income from operations and cash flows.

Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable as a result of a decrease in our days sales outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to net cash provided by investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2019 is primarily due to a decrease in net proceeds from sale or maturity of short-term investments, partially offset by decrease in the purchase of property and equipment.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased in the three ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to an increase in payment of debt and payment of contingent consideration related to acquisitions partially offset by a decrease in payment of noncontrolling interest.
Commitments and Contingencies
See Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We do not have investments in special purpose entities or undisclosed borrowings or debt.
We have entered into foreign currency derivative contracts with the objective of limiting our exposure to changes in the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling, the euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and the Swedish Krona as described below and in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”
We maintain a foreign currency cash flow hedging program designed to further mitigate the risks of volatility in the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar and U.K. pound sterling as described below in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.” From time to time, we may also purchase multiple foreign currency forward contracts designed to hedge fluctuation in foreign currencies, such as the U.K. pound sterling, euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and Swedish Krona against the U.S. dollar to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency denominated revenue and expenses. Other than these foreign currency derivative contracts, we have not entered
42
into off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are likely to affect liquidity or the availability of or requirements for capital resources.
Recent accounting pronouncements
See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our market risks, and the ways we manage them, are summarized in Part II, Item 7A of the Annual Report. There have been no material changes in three months ended June 30, 2020 to such risks or to our management of such risks except for the additional factors noted below.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the ordinary course of business. We have historically entered into, and in the future we may enter into, foreign currency derivative contracts to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on both foreign currency denominated assets and forecasted revenue and expenses. The purpose of this foreign exchange policy is to protect us from the risk that the recognition of and eventual cash flows related to Indian rupee denominated expenses might be affected by changes in exchange rates. Some of these contracts meet the criteria for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges (See Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements included herein for a description of recent hedging activities).
We evaluate our foreign exchange policy on an ongoing basis to assess our ability to address foreign exchange exposures on our balance sheet, statement of income and operating cash flows from all foreign currencies, including most significantly the GBP and the Indian rupee.
We have an 18 month rolling hedge program comprised of a series of foreign exchange forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. This program is designed to mitigate the impact of volatility in the U.S. dollar and the GBP equivalents of our Indian rupee denominated expenses. The U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of all outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts at June 30, 2020 was $112.9 million. There is no assurance that the hedging program or hedging contracts will be effective. As these foreign currency hedging programs are designed to reduce volatility in the Indian rupee, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger Indian rupee but also reduce the positive impact of a weaker Indian rupee on our Indian rupee expenses.
The GBP, the euro, the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) and the Australian dollar (“AUD”) exchange fluctuations can have an unpredictable impact on our GBP, euro, CAD and AUD revenues generated and costs incurred. In response to this volatility, we have an economic hedge program under which we have entered into hedging transactions designed to hedge our forecasted revenue and expenses denominated in the GBP, the euro, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar. These derivative contracts have maximum duration of 92 days and do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. Such hedges may not be effective in mitigating this currency volatility. These hedges are designed to reduce the negative impact of a weaker GBP, euro, CAD and AUD, however they also reduce the positive impact of a stronger GBP, euro, CAD or AUD on the respective revenues.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest under our credit facility accrues at the higher of LIBOR or 1.00%, plus 2.75% subject to step downs based on our ratio of debt to EBITDA. In the event that LIBOR is discontinued as expected in 2021, we expect the interest rates for our debt following such event will be based on either alternate base rates or an agreed upon replacement reference rates. While we do not expect a LIBOR discontinuation would affect our ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings, it could result in higher interest rates. We entered into interest rate swap agreements to minimize interest rate exposure. The Credit Agreement for our credit facility includes maximum debt to EBITDA and minimum fixed charge coverage covenants. The term of the Credit Agreement is five years, ending February 6, 2023. At June 30, 2020, the
43
weighted average interest rate on the term loan and line of credit was 3.75%. At June 30, 2020, the outstanding amount under the Credit Agreement was $440.6 million.
At June 30, 2020, we had $289.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, the interest income from which is affected by changes in interest rates. Our invested securities primarily consist of money market mutual funds and time deposits. Our investments are classified as available-for-sale debt securities, time deposits and equity securities. These investments are recorded at fair value. Our investments are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Interest rate changes would result in a change in the net fair value of these financial instruments due to the difference between the market interest rate at the period end and the market interest rate at the date of purchase of the financial instrument.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, accounts receivable, derivative contracts, other financial assets and unbilled accounts receivable. We place our operating cash, investments and derivatives in highly-rated financial institutions. We adhere to a formal investment policy with the primary objective of preservation of principal, which contains credit rating minimums and diversification requirements. We believe that our credit policies reflect normal industry terms and business risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties as we invest with highly-rated financial institutions and, accordingly, do not require collateral. Credit losses and write-offs of accounts receivable balances have historically not been material to our consolidated financial statements and have not exceeded our expectations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
At June 30, 2020, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level in (i) enabling us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings within the required time period and (ii) ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the outcome of such claims and legal actions, if decided adversely, is not currently expected to have a material adverse effect on our operating results, cash flows or consolidated financial position, except as disclosed below;
One of our larger clients during our fiscal year ending March 31, 2020 made a written demand for damages related to a project in which we were performing services. The client alleges breaches of certain representations and warranties regarding our performance and is seeking indemnification for damages from those alleged breaches. No litigation has been filed. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will prevail in the dispute or even partially prevail. Further, although we have engaged in settlement discussions, if we are unsuccessful in any settlement discussions, we also cannot provide any assurance that the client will not use set off rights in our contract, even if we dispute the claims or amount of damages alleged. In the event we do not fully prevail in this dispute, or we agree on a settlement for such claims, we may have to pay damages in amounts for which we may not have reserved or which may or may not be covered by our insurance policies; further, even if the damages are covered, depending on the outcome, our insurance may not cover or be adequate to pay the entire claim. In addition, we cannot guarantee that we will not lose future business with such client as a result of such dispute.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Under the terms of our 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”) and 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), we have issued shares of restricted stock to our employees. On the date that these restricted shares vest, we automatically withhold, via a net exercise provision pursuant to our applicable restricted stock agreements and the 2007 Plan and 2015 Plan, as the case may be, the number of vested shares (based on the closing price of our common stock on such vesting date) equal to tax liability owed by such grantee. The shares withheld from the grantees under the 2007 Plan or the 2015 Plan, as the case may be, to settle their tax liability are reallocated to the number of shares available for issuance under the 2015 Plan. For the three months period ended June 30, 2020, we withheld an aggregate of 63,254 shares of restricted stock at a weighted average price of $30.28 per share.
