NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2016

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

ExlService Holdings, Inc. (“ExlService Holdings”) is organized as a corporation under the laws of the state of Delaware. ExlService Holdings, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading Operations Management and Analytics company that helps businesses enhance growth and profitability. Using its proprietary platforms, methodologies and tools the Company looks deeper to help companies improve global operations, enhance data-driven insights, increase customer satisfaction, and manage risk and compliance. The Company’s clients are located principally in the U.S. and the U.K.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of such statements for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated statements of income for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any subsequent period.

Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, the Company merged two of its operating segments (Operations Consulting and Finance Transformation, previously part of the Analytics and Business Transformation reportable segment) into the Consulting operating segment to reflect recent organizational changes. The Company has also revised its reportable segments to reflect management’s focus on the Analytics operating segment. All other operating segments have been aggregated into the Operations Management reportable segment.

The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:

• Operations Management, and

• Analytics.

The segment information for all prior periods presented herein has been restated to conform to the current presentation. This change in segment presentation does not affect the Company’s consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ExlService Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The non-controlling interest at March 31, 2016 represents the minority partner’s interest in the operations of ExlService Colombia S.A.S. ("Exl Colombia") and the profits associated with the minority partner’s interest in those operations, in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income, respectively. The non-controlling interest in such operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was insignificant and is included under general and administrative expenses in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

(b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited consolidated statements of income during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best assessment of the current business environment,

7

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(continued)

March 31, 2016

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

actual results may be different from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful receivables, service tax receivables, assets and obligations related to employee benefit plans, deferred tax valuation allowances, income-tax uncertainties and other contingencies, valuation of derivative financial instruments, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization periods, purchase price allocation, recoverability of long-term assets including goodwill and intangibles, and estimates to complete the fixed price contracts.

Other non-current liabilities	1,549		5,501

(f) Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

For the Company, accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of amortization of actuarial gain/(loss) on retirement benefits and changes in the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments. In addition, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"). Changes in the fair values of contracts that are deemed effective are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the settlement of those contracts. The balances as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. The comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Adoption of the new rules could affect the timing of revenue recognition for certain transactions of the Company. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 using either one of two methods: (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU No. 2014-09; or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and the implementation approach to be used. 

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities". This guidance makes targeted improvements to existing US GAAP for financial instruments, including requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; requiring entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset and requiring entities to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption of the own credit provision is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the identification of arrangements that should be accounted for as leases by lessees. In general, for lease arrangements exceeding a twelve month term, these arrangements must now be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet of the lessee. Under ASU No. 2016-02, a right-of-use asset and lease obligation will be recorded for all leases, whether operating or financing, while the income statement will reflect lease expense for operating leases and amortization/interest expense for financing leases. The balance sheet amount recorded for existing leases at the date of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate at the date of adoption. In addition, ASU No. 2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and the implementation approach to be used.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging: Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships, which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity has the option to apply ASU No. 2016-05 on either a prospective basis or a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-05 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting.” Among other things, the amendments in ASU No. 2016-07 eliminate the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The guidance includes indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customers. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted but all of the guidance must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents issued and outstanding at the reporting date, using

the treasury stock method. Stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

The Company's operating segments are significant strategic business units that align its products and services with how it manages its business, approach the key markets and interacts with its clients. Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, the Company merged two of its operating segments (Operations Consulting and Finance Transformation, previously part of the Analytics and Business Transformation reportable segment) into the Consulting operating segment to reflect recent organizational changes. The Company has also revised its reportable segments to reflect management’s focus on the Analytics operating segment. All the other operating segments have been aggregated into the Operations Management reportable segment.

The new reportable segments are as follows:

• Operations Management

• Analytics

The Company has restated the segment information for the all prior periods presented herein to conform to the current presentation. This change in segment presentation does not affect the Company's consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) generally reviews operating segment revenues and cost of revenues. The Company does not allocate and therefore the CODM does not evaluate operating expenses, interest expense and income taxes by segment. The Company’s operating assets are shared by multiple segments. The Company manages assets on a total company basis, not by operating segment, and therefore asset information and capital expenditures by operating segment are not presented.

Revenues and cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 for Operations Management and Analytics segments, respectively, are as follows:

* Includes short-term investments carried on fair value option under ASC 825 of $82,536 as of March 31, 2016.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Fair values for derivative financial instruments are based on independent sources including highly rated financial institutions and are classified as Level 2. See Note 7 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein for further details on Derivatives and Hedge Accounting.

Fair value of earn-out consideration: The fair value measurement of earn-out consideration is determined using Level 3 inputs. The Company’s earn-out consideration represents a component of the total purchase consideration for its March 2015 acquisition of RPM Direct, LLC and RPM Data Solutions, LLC (together "RPM"). The measurement is calculated using unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assessment of achievement of certain performance goals by RPM during the 2015 and 2016 calendar years. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company estimated the fair value of the earn out consideration to be $3,810 and $4,060, respectively, utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte-Carlo simulation model simulates a range of possible performance levels and estimates the probabilities of the potential payouts. This model also incorporates a range of assumptions like discount rate, risk-free rate, assumed cost of debt, etc.

7. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting

The Company uses derivative instruments and hedging transactions to mitigate exposure to foreign currency fluctuation risks associated with forecasted transactions denominated in certain foreign currencies and to minimize earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are largely forward foreign exchange contracts that are designated effective and that qualify as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. The Company had outstanding cash flow hedges totaling $218,365 as of March 31, 2016 and $230,894 as of December 31, 2015. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is included in the other comprehensive loss on the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge its intercompany balances and other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currencies. These derivatives do not qualify as fair value hedges under ASC No. 815. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in the consolidated statements

of income and are included in foreign exchange gain/loss. The Company’s primary exchange rate exposure is with the Indian Rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine peso. The Company also has exposure to Colombian pesos, Czech Koruna, Euro, South African ZAR and other local currencies in which it operates. Outstanding foreign currency forward contracts amounted to $59,290 and GBP 14,147 as of March 31, 2016 and amounted to $61,641 and GBP 13,256 as of December 31, 2015.

The Company estimates that approximately $3,257 of net derivative gains included in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) could be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months based on exchange rates prevailing as of March 31, 2016. At March 31, 2016, the maximum outstanding term of the cash flow hedges was forty-five months.

The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at the time a contract is entered into as well as on an ongoing basis. If during this time, a contract is deemed ineffective, the change in the fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of income and is included in foreign exchange gain/(loss). For hedging positions that are discontinued because the forecasted transaction is not expected to occur by the end of the originally specified period, any related derivative amounts recorded in equity are reclassified to earnings. There were no such significant amounts of gains or losses that were reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The following tables set forth the fair value of the foreign currency exchange contracts and their location on the unaudited consolidated financial statements:

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company acquired 14,548 and 12,866 shares of common stock, respectively from employees in connection with withholding tax payments related to the vesting of restricted stock for a total consideration of $652 and $397, respectively. The weighted average purchase price of $44.83 and $30.83, respectively, was the average of the high and low price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the trading day prior to the vesting date of the shares of restricted stock.

On December 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized up to an annual $20,000 common stock repurchase program (the “2014 Repurchase Program”), under which shares may be purchased by the Company from time to time from the open market and through private transactions during each of the fiscal years 2015 to 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company purchased 138,638 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $6,202 including commissions, representing an average purchase price per share of $44.74 under the 2014 Repurchase program. There were no such shares of common stock purchased during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Repurchased shares have been recorded as treasury shares and will be held until the Board of Directors designates that these shares be retired or used for other purposes.

10. Borrowings

On October 24, 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provided for a $50,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), including a letter of credit sub-facility, for a period of five years. The Company had an option to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50,000, subject to certain approvals and conditions as set forth in the Credit Agreement. On February 23, 2015, via an amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company exercised its option to increase credit commitments by another $50,000 upon the same terms and conditions which were available in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of October 24, 2019 and is voluntarily pre-payable from time to time without premium or penalty. The Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement effective as of September 28, 2015 to address a minor clarification to the definition of change of control.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital, general corporate purposes and for acquisitions. The Company has an outstanding debt of $65,000 and $70,000 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, of which $10,000 is expected to be repaid within next twelve months and is included under “short-term borrowings” in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The Credit Facility carried an effective interest rate of 1.90% per annum and 1.56% per annum, respectively during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

In connection with the financing, the Company incurred certain debt issuance costs, which are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility. The unamortized debt issuance costs as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $344 and $368, respectively and is included under "other current assets" and "other assets" in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

11. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company’s Gratuity Plans in India and the Philippines ("Gratuity Plan") provide for lump sum payment to vested employees on retirement or upon termination of employment in an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and years of employment with the Company. Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plans are determined by actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Current service costs for the Gratuity Plan are accrued in the year to which they relate. Actuarial gains or losses or prior service costs, if any, resulting from amendments to the plans are recognized and amortized over the remaining period of service of the employees.

Net gratuity cost includes the following components:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2016			2015
Service cost	$	400		$	423
Interest cost	149			142
Expected return on plan assets	(104		)	(100		)
Actuarial loss	22			55
Net gratuity cost	$	467		$	520

The Gratuity Plan in India is partially funded. The Company makes annual contributions to the employees' gratuity fund established with Life Insurance Corporation of India and HDFC Standard Life Insurance Company. They calculate the annual contribution required to be made by the Company and manage the Gratuity Plans, including any required payouts. Fund managers manage these funds on a cash accumulation basis and declare interest retrospectively on March 31 of each year. The Company earned a return of approximately 9.0% on these Gratuity Plans for the year ended March 31, 2016.

The operating leases are subject to renewal periodically and have scheduled rent increases. The Company recognizes rent on such leases on a straight line basis over the non-cancelable lease period determined under ASC topic 840, “Leases”. Rent expense under both cancelable and non-cancelable operating leases was $5,148 and $4,985 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Deferred rent as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $7,419 and $7,066, respectively, and is included under “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Non-current liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets.

13. Income Taxes

The Company determines the tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of annual effective tax rate, and if its estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $5,895 and $6,213 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The effective tax rate decreased from 39.4% during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 29.9% during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was the result of a higher income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to income tax expense of $1,818 related to immaterial errors for prior years. This decrease is partially offset by lower tax holiday benefits and an increase in the corporate tax rate applicable to certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016:

Effect of exchange rate changes	(4		)
Balance as of March 31, 2016	$	2,793

The unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2016 of $2,793, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has recognized interest of $50 and $99, respectively, which are included in the income tax expense in the unaudited consolidated statements of income. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has accrued approximately $1,319 and $1,269, respectively in interest relating to unrecognized tax benefits.

Fixed Asset Commitments

At March 31, 2016, the Company has committed to spend approximately $6,510 under agreements to purchase fixed assets. This amount is net of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases.

Other Commitments

Certain units of the Company’s Indian subsidiaries were established as 100% Export-Oriented units or under the Software Technology Parks of India (“STPI”) scheme promulgated by the Government of India. These units are exempt from customs, central excise duties, and levies on imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares. The Company has undertaken to pay custom duties, service taxes, levies, and liquidated damages payable, if any, in respect of imported and indigenous capital

goods, stores and spares consumed duty free, in the event that certain terms and conditions are not fulfilled. The Company’s management believes, however, that these units have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required conditions.

The Company’s operations centers in the Philippines are registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (“PEZA”). The registration provides the Company with certain fiscal incentives on the import of capital goods and requires ExlService Philippines, Inc. to meet certain performance and investment criteria. The Company’s management believes that these centers have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required criteria.

Contingencies

U.S. and Indian transfer pricing regulations require that any international transaction involving associated enterprises be at an arm’s-length price. Accordingly, the Company determines the appropriate pricing for the international transactions among its associated enterprises on the basis of a detailed functional and economic analysis involving benchmarking against transactions among entities that are not under common control. The tax authorities have jurisdiction to review this arrangement and in the event that they determine that the transfer price applied was not appropriate, the Company may incur increased tax liability, including accrued interest and penalties. The Company is currently involved in disputes with the Indian tax authorities over the application of some of its transfer pricing policies for some of its subsidiaries. Further, the Company and a U.S. subsidiary are engaged in tax litigation with the income-tax authorities in India on the issue of permanent establishment.

The aggregate disputed amount demanded by Indian tax authorities from the Company related to its transfer pricing issues for years ranging from tax years 2003 to 2013 and its permanent establishment issues ranging from tax years 2003 to 2007 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is $20,835 and $21,360, respectively, of which the Company has made payments or provided bank guarantee to the extent $14,342 and $14,668, respectively. Amounts paid as deposits in respect of such assessments aggregating to $12,342 and $12,665 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are included in “Other assets” and amounts deposited for bank guarantees aggregating to $2,000 and $2,003 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are included in “Restricted cash” in the non-current assets section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Based on advice from its Indian tax advisors, the facts underlying the Company’s position and its experience with these types of assessments, the Company believes that the probability that it will ultimately be found liable for these assessments is remote and accordingly has not accrued any amount with respect to these matters in its consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect any impact from these assessments on its future income tax expense. It is possible that the Company might receive similar orders or assessments from tax authorities for subsequent years. Accordingly even if these disputes are resolved, the Indian tax authorities may still serve additional orders or assessments.

ITEM 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion in connection with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. Some of the statements in the following discussion are forward looking statements. See “Forward Looking Statements.” Dollar amounts within Item 2 are presented as actual, approximated, dollar amounts.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. These statements often include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions. These statements are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements. These factors include but are not limited to:

•our dependence on a limited number of clients in a limited number of industries;

• worldwide political, economic or business conditions;

• negative public reaction in the U.S. or elsewhere to offshore outsourcing;

• fluctuations in our earnings;

• our ability to attract and retain clients;

• our ability to successfully consummate or integrate strategic acquisitions;

• restrictions on immigration;

• our ability to hire and retain enough sufficiently trained employees to support our operations;

• our ability to grow our business or effectively manage growth and international operations;

• increasing competition in our industry;

• telecommunications or technology disruptions;

• our ability to withstand the loss of a significant customer ;

• regulatory, legislative and judicial developments, including changes to or the withdrawal of governmental fiscal incentives;

• technological innovation;

• political or economic instability in the geographies in which we operate;

• unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client and customer data; and

• adverse outcome of our disputes with the Indian tax authorities.

These and other factors are more fully discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These and other risks could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The forward looking statements made by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or elsewhere, speak only as of the date on which they were made. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. We have no obligation to update any forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except as required by federal securities laws.

Executive Overview

We are a leading Operations Management and Analytics company that helps businesses enhance growth and profitability. Using our proprietary platforms, methodologies and tools we look deeper to help companies improve global operations, enhance data-driven insights, increase customer satisfaction, and manage risk and compliance. We serve the insurance, healthcare, banking and financial services, utilities, travel, transportation and logistics industries, among others.

23

Our operating segments are significant strategic business units that align our products and services with how we manage our business, approach our key markets and interact with our clients. Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, we merged two of our operating segments (Operations Consulting and Finance Transformation, previously part of the Analytics and Business Transformation reportable segment) into the Consulting operating segment to reflect recent organizational changes. We have also revised our reportable segments to reflect management’s focus on the Analytics operating segment. All our other operating segments have been aggregated into the Operations Management reportable segment.

Our new reportable segments are as follows:

• Operations Management, and

• Analytics.

We have restated the segment information for all prior periods presented herein to conform to the current presentation. This change in segment presentation does not affect our consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. For further descriptions of our operating segments, see Note 4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein.

Our global delivery network, which include highly trained industry and process specialists across the United States, Latin America, South Africa, Europe and Asia (primarily India and the Philippines), is a key asset. We have operations centers in India, the U.S., the Philippines, Bulgaria, Colombia, South Africa, Romania and the Czech Republic.

Revenues

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we had revenues of $167.0 million compared to revenues of $143.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $23.5 million, or 16.4%. Revenues from operations management services were $128.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $123.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Revenues from analytics services were $39.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $19.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

We serve clients mainly in the U.S. and the U.K., with these two regions generating approximately 80.3% and 16.4%, respectively, of our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and approximately 78.0% and 18.0%, respectively, of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, our total revenues from our top ten clients accounted for 40.5% and 43.9% of our total revenues, respectively. None of our clients accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. Although we are continually increasing and diversifying our customer base, we expect in the near future that a significant portion of our revenue will continue to be contributed by a limited number of large clients.

Our Business

Our business is divided into two reporting segments: Operations Management and Analytics. We market our services to our existing and prospective clients through our sales and client management teams, which are aligned by key industry verticals and cross-industry domains such as finance and accounting. Our sales and client management teams operate from the U.S., Europe and Australia.

Operations Management: We provide our clients with a range of operations management solutions principally in the insurance, healthcare, utilities, banking and financial services, and travel, transportation and logistics sectors, among others, as well as cross-industry operations management solutions, such as finance and accounting services.

Our Operations Management solutions typically involve the transfer to the Company of select business operations of a client such as claims processing, clinical operations, or financial transaction processing, after which we administer and manage the operations for our client on an ongoing basis. As part of this transfer, we hire and train employees to work at our operations centers on the relevant business operations, implement a process migration to these operations centers and then provide services either to the client or directly to the client’s customers. Each client contract has different terms based on the scope, deliverables and complexity of the engagement.

We have been observing a shift in industry pricing models toward transaction-based pricing, outcome-based pricing and other pricing models. We believe this trend will continue and we have begun to use transaction-based, outcome-based and other pricing models with some of our current clients and are seeking to move certain other clients from a billing rate model

24

to a transaction-based or other pricing model. These transaction-based pricing models place the focus on operating efficiency in order to maintain our operating margins. In addition, we have also observed that prospective larger clients are entering into multi-vendor relationships with regard to their outsourcing needs. We believe that the trend toward multi-vendor relationships will continue. A multi-vendor relationship allows a client to seek more favorable pricing and other contract terms from each vendor, which can result in significantly reduced operating margins from the provision of services to such client for each vendor. To the extent our large clients expand their use of multi-vendor relationships and are able to extract more favorable contract terms from other vendors, our operating margins and revenues may be reduced with regard to such clients if we are required to modify the terms of our relationships with such clients to meet competition.

As we increase our capabilities utilizing technology service platforms and other software-based services, we expect that revenues from such services will continue to grow in proportion to our total revenues. Revenues from annual maintenance and support contracts for our software platforms provide us with a relatively predictable revenue base and are generally recognized ratably over the terms of the contracts. New license sales and implementation projects have a long selling cycle and it is difficult to predict the timing of when such new contracts will be signed, which may lead to fluctuations in our revenues over the short term.

Analytics: Our Analytics services focus on driving improved business outcomes for our customers by generating data-driven insights across all parts of our customers’ business. Our teams deliver predictive and prescriptive analytics in the areas of customer acquisition and lifecycle management, risk underwriting and pricing, operational effectiveness, credit and operational risk monitoring and governance, regulatory reporting, and data management. We actively cross-sell and, where appropriate, integrate our Analytics services with Operations Management as part of a comprehensive solution for our clients.

We anticipate that revenues from our Analytics services will grow as we expand our service offerings and client base, both organically and through acquisitions.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

Revenues.

	Three months ended March 31,						Percentage change
	2016		2015		Change
	(dollars in millions)
Operations Management	$	128.1	$	123.9	$	4.2	3.4	%
Analytics	38.9		19.6		19.3		98.2	%
Total revenues, net	$	167.0	$	143.5	$	23.5	16.4	%

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $167.0 million, up $23.5 million or 16.4% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Revenue growth in Operations Management of $4.2 million was driven by net volume increases from our new and existing clients of $6.9 million. This increase in revenues was offset by a $2.7 million impact due to the depreciation of the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Revenue growth in Analytics of $19.3 million was driven by an incremental revenue of $11.9 million from our RPM acquisition and net volume increases in our recurring and project based engagements from our existing clients of $7.2 million and new client wins of $0.5 million. The increase was offset by a decrease of $0.3 million due to the depreciation of the U.K. pound sterling against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Cost of Revenues.

	Three months ended March 31,								Percentage change
	2016			2015			Change
	(dollars in millions)
Revenues, net	$	167.0		$	143.5		$	23.5	16.4	%
Cost of revenues	108.3			93.1			15.2		16.3	%
Gross profit	$	58.7		$	50.4		$	8.3	16.4	%
As a percentage of revenues	35.1		%	35.1		%

The increase in cost of revenues was primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs of $11.2 million (including $1.3 million of incremental employee-related costs related to our RPM acquisition). The remaining increase of $9.9 million in employee-related cost was primarily due to annual wage increases and an increase in our average headcount of personnel directly involved in providing services to our clients. We also experienced an increase in facilities, technology and other operating expenses of $7.8 million (including incremental cost of revenues of $6.5 million related to our RPM acquisition) and in reimbursable expenses of $0.8 million, resulting in a corresponding increase in revenues. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $4.6 million due to the impact of depreciation of the Indian rupee, the U.K pound sterling and the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $8.3 million, or 16.4%, from $50.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $58.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to higher revenues in our Analytics services and depreciation of the Indian rupee, the Philippine peso and the U.K. pound sterling against the U.S. dollar.

27

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses.

	Three months ended March 31,								Percentage change
	2016			2015			Change
	(dollars in millions)
General and administrative expenses	$	20.6		$	18.6		$	2.0	10.7	%
Selling and marketing expenses	13.5			11.2			2.3		19.7	%
Selling, general and administrative expenses	$	34.1		$	29.8		$	4.3	14.1	%
As a percentage of revenues	20.4		%	20.8		%

The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs of $5.0 million (including $2.1 million of incremental employee-related costs related to our RPM acquisition). The remaining increase of $2.9 million in employee-related cost was primarily due to annual wage increments and an increase in our average headcount to support the increased business volumes. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $0.7 million due to the impact of depreciation of the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Depreciation and Amortization.

	Three months ended March 31,								Percentage change
	2016			2015			Change
	(dollars in millions)
Depreciation expense	$	5.4		$	5.0		$	0.4	8.0	%
Intangible amortization expense	2.7			2.1			0.6		28.6	%
Depreciation and amortization expense	$	8.1		$	7.1		$	1.0	15.3	%
As a percentage of revenues	4.9		%	4.9		%

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.0 million, or 15.3%, from $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in amortization of intangibles of $0.6 million was primarily due to amortization of intangibles associated with our RPM acquisition. Further, there was an increase in our depreciation expense of $0.7 million, due to depreciation related to our new capital investments in India, South Africa and the Philippines to support the business growth. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million due to depreciation of Indian rupee and the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Income from Operations. Income from operations increased $3.0 million, or 22.1%, from $13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $16.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. As a percentage of revenues, income from operations increased from 9.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 9.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Foreign Exchange Gain /( Loss). Net foreign exchange gains and losses are primarily attributable to movement of the U.S. dollar against the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine peso during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The average exchange rate of the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar increased from 62.06 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 67.51 during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The average exchange rate of the U.K. pound sterling against the U.S. dollar increased from 0.66 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 0.71 during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The average exchange rate of the Philippine peso against the U.S. dollar increased from 44.29 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 47.09 during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

We recorded a net foreign exchange gain of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Interest and Other Income, net

	Three months ended March 31,									Percentage change
	2016			2015			Change
	(dollars in millions)
Interest and dividend income	$	2.2		$	1.4		$	0.8		57.1	%
Interest expense	(0.4		)	(0.3		)	(0.1		)	(33.3	)%
Change in fair value of earn-out consideration	0.3			—			0.3			100.0	%
Other, net	0.7			0.1			0.6			600.0	%
Other income, net	$	2.8		$	1.2		$	1.6		137.2	%

Increase in interest and dividend income was primarily due to higher cash balances in our foreign susbsidiaries and higher yield on our investments during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Other income further increased by $0.7 million due to interest on deposits received from income tax authorities in India on completion of a tax assessment. This increase in interest and other income was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $0.1 million related to the Credit Facility and the amortization of related deferred financing cost.

Income Tax Expense. The effective tax rate decreased from 39.4% during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 29.9% during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was a result of higher income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2015, as a result of income tax expense related to immaterial errors for prior years of $1.8 million. The decrease is partially offset by lower tax holiday benefits and an increase in the corporate tax rate applicable to certain of our foreign subsidiaries during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Net Income. Net income increased from $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $13.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily due to higher income from operations of $3.0 million and increase in other income and foreign exchange gain of $0.9 million and a lower income tax expense of $0.3 million. As a percentage of revenues, net income increased from 6.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 8.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Effect of exchange rate changes	0.7			(0.3		)
Closing cash and cash equivalents	$	95.8		$	151.3

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $192.9 and $219.0 million, respectively in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (including $134.7 million and $136.0 million, respectively, held by our foreign subsidiaries). We do not intend to repatriate funds held by our foreign subsidiaries since our future growth partially depends upon continued infrastructure and technology investments, geographical expansions and acquisitions outside of the U.S. Therefore, we anticipate that we will indefinitely reinvest the earnings generated outside of the U.S. If we were to repatriate our overseas funds, we would accrue and pay applicable taxes.

Operating Activities: Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $10.5 million from $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to a negative cash flow from operating activities of $10.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Generally, factors that affect our earnings—including pricing, volume of services, costs and productivity—affect our cash flows provided from operations in a similar manner. However, while management of working capital, including timing of collections and payments affects operating results only indirectly, the impact on the working capital and cash flows provided by operating activities can be significant.

29

The decrease in cash flows from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015 was due to an increase in working capital of $39.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to an increase of $23.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in working capital was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivables and a decrease in accrued employee costs. This decrease in cash flows from operations was partially offset by an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash expenses of $4.6 million, primarily due to an increase in net income by $4.3 million.

Investing Activities: Cash flows used for investing activities increased by $33.6 million from $56.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $89.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to an increase in short-term investments of $78.4 million (net of redemption) during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015, partially offset by cash paid for the RPM acquisition (net of cash acquired) of $44.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and further by a decrease in capital expenditures of $0.4 million.

Financing Activities: Cash flows used for financing activities was $10.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to cash flow provided by financing activities of $31.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease in cash flow from financing activities is primarily due to $30.0 million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement (as described below in “—Financing Arrangements”) during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and repayment of $5.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Cash flows from financing activities further decreased due to higher purchases of treasury stock of $6.2 million under the 2014 Repurchase Program during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

We expect to use cash from operating activities to maintain and expand our business. As we have focused on expanding our cash flow from operating activities we continue to make capital investments, primarily related to new facilities and capital expenditures associated with leasehold improvements to build our facilities and the purchase of telecommunications equipment and computer hardware and software in connection with managing client operations. We incurred $8.5 million of capital expenditures in the three months ended March 31, 2016. We expect to incur capital expenditures of between $25 million to $30 million in 2016, primarily to meet our growth requirements, including additions to our facilities as well as investments in technology applications and infrastructure.

In connection with any tax assessment orders that have been issued or may be issued against us or our subsidiaries, we may be required to deposit additional amounts with respect to such assessment orders (refer to Note 16 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for further details). We anticipate that we will continue to rely upon cash from operating activities to finance our smaller acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital needs. If we have significant growth through acquisitions, we may need to obtain additional financing.

Financing Arrangements (Debt Facility)

On October 24, 2014 we entered into a Credit Agreement that provides for a $50 million revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”). We had an option to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50 million, subject to certain approvals and conditions as set forth in the Credit Agreement. On February 23, 2015, pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement we exercised this option to increase credit commitments by another $50 million upon the same terms and conditions which were available in the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2016, we had outstanding indebtedness of $65.0 million. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries and for acquisitions

Depending on the type of borrowing, loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to the specified prime rate (alternate base rate) or adjusted LIBO rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is tied to the Company’s leverage ratio and ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% per annum with respect to loans pegged to the specified prime rate, and 1.25% to 1.75% per annum on loans pegged to the adjusted LIBO rate. The revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement are subject to a commitment fee. The commitment fee is also tied to the Company’s leverage ratio, and ranges from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum on the average daily amount by which the aggregate revolving commitments exceed the sum of outstanding revolving loans and letter of credit obligations. The credit facility carried can effective interest rate of 1.90% per annum during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Certain units of our Indian subsidiaries were established as 100% Export-Oriented units under the “STPI” scheme promulgated by the Government of India. These units are exempt from customs, central excise duties, and levies on imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares. We have undertaken to pay custom duties, service taxes, levies, and liquidated damages payable, if any, in respect of imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares consumed duty free, in the event that certain terms and conditions are not fulfilled. We believe, however, that these units have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required conditions.

Our operations centers in the Philippines are registered with the “PEZA.” The registration provides us with certain fiscal incentives on the import of capital goods and requires that ExlService Philippines, Inc. meet certain performance and investment criteria. We believe that these centers have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required criteria.

Executive acknowledges that Executive’s agreement to enter into this Agreement and be bound by the service commitments set forth herein and the restrictive covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 hereof, is a material inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, and the Company would not otherwise enter into this Agreement if Executive did not agree to be bound by the commitments set forth herein and the restrictive covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 hereof, and make the commitments to the Company set forth herein.

(b)    Executive acknowledges (i) that the business of the Company and its Affiliates is global in scope, without geographical limitation, and capable of being performed from anywhere in the world, and (ii) notwithstanding the jurisdiction of formation or principal office of the Company, or the location of any of their respective executives or employees (including, without limitation, Executive), the Company and its Affiliates have business activities and have valuable business relationships within their respective industries throughout the world.

(c)    Executive acknowledges that Executive has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Executive by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to the necessity of such restraints for the reasonable and proper protection of the Confidential Information, business strategies, employee and customer relationships and goodwill of the Company and its Affiliates now existing or to be developed in the future. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every commitment and restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area, in light of (i) the scope of the business of the Company and its Affiliates, (ii) the importance of Executive to the business of the Company and its Affiliates, (iii) Executive’s status as an officer of the Company business, (iv) Executive’s knowledge of the business of the Company and its Affiliates and (v) Executive’s relationships with the Company’s clients or customers.

7.    Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation. (a) Executive acknowledges that the services Executive are to render to the Company are of a special and unusual character, with a unique value to the Company, the loss of which cannot adequately be compensated by damages or an action at law. In view of the unique value to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, the “Group”) of the services of Executive for which the Company has contracted hereunder, because of the confidential information to be obtained by, or disclosed to, Executive as herein above set forth, Executive covenants and agrees that during Executive’s employment and during the “Non-Competition Period,” as defined below, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into the employment of, tender consulting or other services to, acquire any interest in (whether for Executive’s own account as an individual proprietor, or as a partner, associate, stockholder, officer, director, trustee or otherwise), or otherwise participate in any business that competes, directly or indirectly, with any member of the Group (i) in the same lines of business in the business process outsourcing industry that the members of the Group are engaged in at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) in the provision of the business processes provided by the Group at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any member of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group has taken substantial steps to provide to customers at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; or (iv) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group are in the process of marketing to existing or potential clients that any of the Group are taking measures to retain as clients of the Group, at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive are an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement, during Executive’s employment with the Group. Executive and the Company acknowledge that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed or interpreted to narrow or otherwise limit the scope of clause (i) of such sentence. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Non-Competition Period” shall be the one year period following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent (A) the purchase or ownership by Executive of up to two percent (2%) in the aggregate of any class of securities of any entity if such securities (i) are listed on a national securities exchange or (ii) are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or (B) the direct or indirect ownership of securities of a private company, provided that, Executive is only a

8

passive investor in such company (having no role, duty or responsibility whatsoever in the management, operations or direction of such company) and owns no more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate of any securities of such company. If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, and after such termination Executive wish to take any action, including without limitation, taking a position with another company, which action could potentially be deemed a violation of this Agreement, Executive shall have the right, after providing the Board with all relevant information, to request a consent to such action from the Board which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Board shall respond to Executive’s request by granting or denying such consent within not more than 30 calendar days from the date the Company receives written notice of such request from Executive. If Executive disagrees with the Board’s decision relating to the consent, then a third-party arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) shall be appointed within five (5) days of the date Executive notifies the Company of Executive’s disagreement, and the third party Arbitrator shall be instructed to make a determination with respect to whether Executive’s action would constitute a legally valid and enforceable violation of this Agreement within not more than thirty (30) days following his appointment and such determination shall be binding on all of the parties hereto. Such arbitrator is to be selected based on mutual agreement of the Company and Executive. If no mutual agreement is reached, each party shall select one arbitrator and these two arbitrators will in turn select a third arbitrator. The three arbitrators will then make a collective determination in accordance with the terms of this paragraph. The cost of the Arbitrator(s) shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, if the Arbitrators’ determination is inconsistent with Executive’s position, then the cost of the Arbitrator shall be borne by Executive.

(b)    During Executive’s employment with the Group and for a period of oneyear thereafter Executive shall make no unfavorable, disparaging or negative comment, remark or statement, whether written or oral (a “Disparaging Statement”), about the Company or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, consultants, or employees; provided that Executive may give truthful testimony before a court, governmental agency, arbitration panel, or similar person or body with apparent jurisdiction and may discuss such matters in confidence with Executive’s attorney(s) and other professional advisors. Similarly, during the foregoing period, the Company and its officers and directors (acting in their capacity as officers and directors of the Company) shall make no disparaging statement about Executive; provided that any officer or director may give truthful testimony before a court, governmental agency, arbitration panel, or similar person or body with apparent jurisdiction and may discuss such matters in confidence with their or the Company’s attorney(s) and other professional advisors.

On and after the date hereof, during Executive’s employment and for one year following termination of Executive’s employment, Executive may not directly or indirectly (i) solicit, encourage, or induce or attempt to solicit, encourage, or induce any (A) current employee, marketing agent, or consultant of any of the Group to terminate his or her employment, agency, or consultancy with any member of the Group or any (B) prospective employee with whom the Company has had discussions or negotiations within six months prior to Executive’s termination of employment not to establish a relationship with any of the Group, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any current customer to terminate its relationship with any of the Group, or (iii) induce any potential customer with whom the Company has had discussions or negotiations within six months prior to Executive’s termination of employment not to establish a relationship with any of the Group.

(c)    If a final and non-appealable judicial determination is made by a court of competent jurisdiction that any of the provisions of this Section 7 constitutes an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of this Section 7 will not be rendered void but will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to remain in force and effect for the longest period and largest geographic area that would not constitute such an unreasonable or unenforceable restriction (and such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or restrict or redefine the geographic scope of such provision and to enforce such provision as so reduced, restricted or redefined).

Executive acknowledges that the Company has a legitimate business interest and right in protecting its Confidential Information, business strategies, employee and customer relationships and goodwill, and that the Company would be seriously damaged by the disclosure of Confidential Information and the loss or deterioration of its business strategies, employee and customer relationships and goodwill. Executive acknowledges that Executive’s agreement to enter into this Agreement and be bound by the service commitments set forth herein and the restrictive covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 hereof, is a material inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, and the Company would not otherwise enter into this Agreement if Executive did not agree to be bound by the commitments set forth herein and the restrictive covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 hereof, and make the commitments to the Company set forth herein.

(b)    Executive acknowledges (i) that the business of the Company and its Affiliates is global in scope, without geographical limitation, and capable of being performed from anywhere in the world, and (ii) notwithstanding the jurisdiction of formation or principal office of the Company, or the location of any of their respective executives or employees (including, without limitation, Executive), the Company and its Affiliates have business activities and have valuable business relationships within their respective industries throughout the world.

6.Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

(a)     Executive acknowledges that the services Executive are to render to the Company are of a special and unusual character, with a unique value to the Company, the loss of which cannot adequately be compensated by damages or an action at law. In view of the unique value to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, the “Group”) of the services of Executive for which the Company has contracted hereunder, because of the confidential information to be obtained by, or disclosed to, Executive as herein above set forth, Executive covenants and agrees that during Executive’s employment and during the “Non-Competition Period,” as defined below, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into the employment of, tender consulting or other services to, acquire any interest in (whether for Executive’s own account as an individual proprietor, or as a partner, associate, stockholder, officer, director, trustee or otherwise), or otherwise participate in any business that competes, directly or indirectly, with any member of the Group (i) in the same lines of business in the business process outsourcing industry that the members of the Group are engaged in at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) in the provision of the business processes provided by the Group at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any member of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group has taken substantial steps to provide to customers at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; or (iv) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group are in the process of marketing to existing or potential clients that any of the Group are taking measures to retain as clients of the Group, at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive are an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement, during Executive’s employment with the Group. Executive and the Company acknowledge that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed or interpreted to narrow or otherwise limit the scope of clause (i) of such sentence. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Non-Competition Period” shall be the one year period following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent (A) the purchase or ownership by Executive of up to two percent (2%) in the aggregate of any class of securities of any entity if such securities (i) are listed on a national securities exchange or (ii) are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or (B) the direct or indirect ownership of securities of a private company, provided that, Executive is only a passive investor in such company (having no role, duty or responsibility whatsoever in the management, operations or direction of such company) and owns no more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate of any securities of such company. If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, and after such termination Executive wish to take any action, including without limitation, taking a position with another company, which action could potentially be deemed a violation of this Agreement, Executive shall have the right, after providing the Board with all relevant information, to request a consent to such action from the Board which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Board shall respond to Executive’s request by granting or denying such consent within not more than 30 calendar days from the date the Company receives written notice of such request from Executive. To the extent that the Board does not deny such consent within such 30 day period, the consent will be deemed granted. If Executive disagrees with the

8

Board’s decision relating to the consent, then a third-party arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) shall be appointed within five (5) days of the date Executive notifies the Company of Executive’s disagreement, and the third party Arbitrator shall be instructed to make a determination with respect to whether Executive’s action would constitute a legally valid and enforceable violation of this Agreement within not more than thirty (30) days following his appointment and such determination shall be binding on all of the parties hereto. Such arbitrator is to be selected based on mutual agreement of the Company and Executive. If no mutual agreement is reached, each party shall select one arbitrator and these two arbitrators will in turn select a third arbitrator. The three arbitrators will then make a collective determination in accordance with the terms of this paragraph. The cost of the Arbitrator shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, if the Arbitrator’s determination is inconsistent with Executive’s position, then the cost of the Arbitrator shall be borne by Executive.

(b)    During Executive’s employment with the Group and for a period of oneyear thereafter Executive shall make no unfavorable, disparaging or negative comment, remark or statement, whether written or oral (a “Disparaging Statement”), about the Company or any of its affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, consultants, or employees; provided that Executive may give truthful testimony before a court, governmental agency, arbitration panel, or similar person or body with apparent jurisdiction and may discuss such matters in confidence with Executive’s attorney(s) and other professional advisors. Similarly, during the foregoing period, the Company and its officers and directors (acting in their capacity as officers and directors of the Company) shall make no Disparaging Statement about Executive; provided that any officer or director may give truthful testimony before a court, governmental agency, arbitration panel, or similar person or body with apparent jurisdiction and may discuss such matters in confidence with their or the Company’s attorney(s) and other professional advisors.

On and after the date hereof, during Executive’s employment and for one year following termination of Executive’s employment, Executive may not directly or indirectly (i) solicit, encourage, or induce or attempt to solicit, encourage, or induce any (A) current employee, marketing agent, or consultant of any of the Group to terminate his or her employment, agency, or consultancy with any member of the Group or any (B) prospective employee with whom the Company has had discussions or negotiations within six months prior to Executive’s termination of employment not to establish a relationship with any of the Group, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any current customer to terminate its relationship with any of the Group, or (iii) induce any potential customer with whom the Company has had discussions or negotiations within six months prior to Executive’s termination of employment not to establish a relationship with any of the Group.

(c)    If a final and non-appealable judicial determination is made by a court of competent jurisdiction that any of the provisions of this Section 7 constitutes an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of this Section 7 will not be rendered void but will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to remain in force and effect for the longest period and largest geographic area that would not constitute such an unreasonable or unenforceable restriction (and such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or restrict or redefine the geographic scope of such provision and to enforce such provision as so reduced, restricted or redefined).

7.Confidential Information and Trade Secrets.

(a)    Access to Confidential Information and Trade Secrets. Executive understands and acknowledges that as an employee of the Company, he will learn or have access to, or may assist in the development of, highly confidential and sensitive information and trade secrets about the Company, its operations and its clients or prospective clients. “Confidential Information” includes without limitation: (i) financial and business information relating to the Company, such as information with respect to costs, commissions, fees, profits, sales, markets, mailing lists, strategies and plans for future business, new business, product or other development, potential acquisitions or

9

divestitures, and new marketing ideas; (ii) product and technical information relating to the Company, such as product and service formulations, new and innovative product and service ideas, methods, procedures, devices, machines, equipment, data processing programs, software, software codes, computer models, and research and development projects; (iii) client information, such as the identity of the Company’s clients, the names of representatives of the Company’s clients responsible for entering into contracts with the Company, the amounts paid by such clients to the Company, specific client needs and requirements; (iv) information regarding prospective clients, such as the identity of prospective clients, the names of representatives of the prospective clients responsible for entering into contracts with the Company, the amounts proposed to paid by such prospective clients to the Company, specific needs and requirements of such prospective clients; (v) personnel information, such as the identity and number of the Company’s other employees, their salaries, bonuses, benefits, skills, qualifications, and abilities; (vi) any and all information in whatever form relating to any client or prospective client of the Company, including without limitation its business, employees, operations, systems, assets, liabilities, finances, products, and marketing, selling and operating practices; (vii) any information which Executive knows or should know is subject to a restriction on disclosure or which Executive knows or should know is considered by the Company or the Company’s clients or prospective clients to be confidential, sensitive, proprietary, a trade secret or is not readily available to the public; and (viii) intellectual property, including inventions and copyrightable works.

Confidential Information and Trade Secrets can be in any form: oral, written or machine readable, including electronic files, and stored in any media whatsoever or the unaided human memory.

(b)Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets. Executive acknowledges and agreesthat the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that its competitive position depends upon its ability to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets which were developed, compiled and acquired by the Company at its great effort and expense. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that any disclosing, divulging, revealing, or using of any of the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, other than in connection with the Company’s business or as specifically authorized by die Company, will be highly detrimental to the Company and cause it to suffer serious loss of business and pecuniary damage.

7.    Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation. (a) Executive acknowledges that the services Executive are to render to the Company are of a special and unusual character, with a unique value to the Company, the loss of which cannot adequately be compensated by damages or an action at law. In view of the unique value to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, the “Group”) of the services of Executive for which the Company has contracted hereunder, because of the confidential information to be obtained by, or disclosed to, Executive as herein above set forth, Executive covenants and agrees that during Executive’s employment and during the “Non-Competition Period,” as defined below, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into the employment of, tender consulting or other services to, acquire any interest in (whether for Executive’s own account as an individual proprietor, or as a partner, associate, stockholder, officer, director, trustee or otherwise), or otherwise participate in any business that competes, directly or indirectly, with any member of the Group (i) in the same lines of business in the business process outsourcing industry that the members of the Group are engaged in at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) in the provision of the business processes provided by the Group at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any member of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any member of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group has taken substantial steps to provide to customers at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive is an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement; or (iv) in the provision of business processes that any of the Group are in the process of marketing to existing or potential clients that any of the Group are taking measures to retain as clients of the Group, at the time Executive’s employment is terminated, or if Executive are an employee of any of the Group, at the time Executive is accused of being in competition with any of the Group pursuant to this Agreement, during Executive’s employment with the Group. Executive and the Company acknowledge that clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed or interpreted to narrow or otherwise limit the scope of clause (i) of such sentence. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Non-Competition Period” shall be the one year period following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent (A) the purchase or ownership by Executive of up to two percent (2%) in the aggregate of any class of securities of any entity if such securities (i) are listed on a national securities exchange or (ii) are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or (B) the direct or indirect ownership of securities of a private company, provided that, Executive is only a passive investor in such company (having no role, duty or responsibility whatsoever in the management, operations or direction of such company) and owns no more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate of any securities of such company. If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, and after such termination Executive wish to take any action, including without limitation, taking a position with another company, which action could potentially be deemed a violation of this Agreement, Executive shall have the right, after providing the Board with all relevant information, to request a consent to such action from the Board which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Board shall respond to Executive’s request by granting or denying such consent within not more than 30 calendar days from the date the Company receives written notice of such request from Executive. If Executive disagrees with the Board’s decision relating to the consent, then a third-party arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) shall be appointed within five (5) days of the date Executive notifies the Company of Executive’s disagreement, and the third party Arbitrator shall be instructed to make a determination with respect to whether Executive’s action would constitute a legally valid and enforceable violation of this Agreement within not more than thirty (30) days following his appointment and such determination shall be binding on all of the parties hereto. Such arbitrator is to be selected based on mutual agreement of the Company and Executive. If no mutual agreement is reached, each party shall select one arbitrator and these two arbitrators will in turn select a third arbitrator. The three arbitrators will then make a collective determination in accordance with the terms of this paragraph. The cost of the Arbitrator(s) shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, if the Arbitrators’ determination is inconsistent with Executive’s position, then the cost of the Arbitrator shall be borne by Executive.

shall reimburse Executive for expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable and necessary attorneyfees where the attorney is engaged in consultation with the Company, and shall schedule such cooperation to the extent reasonably practicable so as not to unreasonably interfere with Executive’s business or personal affairs.

15.    Withholding; Taxes. The Company may deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other taxes as are required or permitted to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. Executive shall be responsible for all taxes (including self-employment taxes) in connection with his status as a member of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

16.    Assignment. (a) This Agreement is personal to Executive and without the prior written consent of the Board shall not be assignable by Executive, and any assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be void.

(b)    This Agreement shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties to it and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns (including, without limitation, successors by merger, consolidation, sale or similar transaction and in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s estate and heirs in the case of any payments due to Executive hereunder).

(c)    Executive acknowledges and agrees that all of Executive’s covenants and obligations to the Company, as well as the rights of the Company hereunder, shall run in favor of and shall be enforceable by the Company and any successor or assign to all or substantially all of the Company’s business or assets.

17.    Governing Law; No Construction Against Drafter. This Agreement shall be deemed to be made in New York, and the validity, interpretation, construction, and performance of this Agreement in all respects shall be governed by the laws of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. No provision of this Agreement or any related document will be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured or drafted such provision.

18.    Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy or other claim, other than claims solely for injunctive relief pursuant to Section 7, 8, 9 or 10, arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, or (ii) Executive’s employment with the Company shall be resolved by binding confidential arbitration, to be held in New York, New York in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

19.    Amendment; No Waiver; 409A. (a) No provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified, waived or discharged except by a written document signed by Executive and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than Executive).

(b)    The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or power hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment of any steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.

(c)    It is the intention of the Company and Executive that this Agreement comply with the requirements of Section 409A, and this Agreement will be interpreted in a manner intended to comply with or be exempt

13

from Section 409A. The Company and Executive agree to negotiate in good faith to make amendments to this Agreement as the parties mutually agree are necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or for the account of Executive in connection with this Agreement (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any Affiliate shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Executive (or any beneficiary) harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Executive is deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), no payments hereunder that are “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A shall be made to Executive prior to the date that is six (6) months after the date of Executive’s “separation from service” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) or, if earlier, Executive’s date of death. Following any applicable six (6) month delay, all such delayed payments will be paid in a single lump sum on the earliest permissible payment date. For purposes of Section 409A, each of the payments that may be made under this Agreement are designated as separate payments.

(e)    For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to payments of any amounts that are considered to be “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A, references to “termination of employment” (and substantially similar phrases) shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 409A relating to “separation from service”.

(f)    To the extent that any reimbursements pursuant to Section 4(j) or 14 are taxable to Executive, any such reimbursement payment due to Executive shall be paid to Executive as promptly as practicable, and in all events on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. The reimbursements pursuant to Section 4(j) and 14 are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits and reimbursements that Executive receives in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such benefits or reimbursements that Executive receives in any other taxable year.

20.    Severability. If any provision or any part thereof of this Agreement, including Sections 7, 8, 9 and 10 hereof, as applied to either party or to any circumstances, shall be adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall in no way affect any other provision or remaining part thereof of this Agreement, which shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid or unenforceable provision or part thereof, or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

21.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral), between Executive and the Company, relating to such subject matter. None of the parties shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner by any representations and warranties or covenants relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt the Original Employment Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force and effect as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent any amounts are due and owing to the Executive under the Original Employment Agreement for services performed through December 31, 2015 and which have yet to be paid as of the date of signature, the Company shall not be relieved of its obligation to make all such payments. Survival. The rights and obligations of the parties under the provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, Sections 7 through 12 and Section 14) shall survive, and remain binding and enforceable, notwithstanding the expiration of the Term, the termination of this Agreement, the termination of Executive’s employment hereunder or any settlement of the financial rights and

14

obligations arising from Executive’s employment hereunder, to the extent necessary to preserve the intended benefits of such provisions.

22.    Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or sent by facsimile or sent, postage prepaid, by registered, certified or express mail or overnight courier service and shall be deemed given when so delivered by hand or facsimile, or if mailed, three days after mailing (one business day in the case of express mail or overnight courier service) to the parties at the following addresses or facsimiles (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

ExlService Holdings, Inc. (“ExlService Holdings”) is organized as a corporation under the laws of the state of Delaware. ExlService Holdings, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading Operations Management and Analytics company that helps businesses enhance growth and profitability. Using its proprietary platforms, methodologies and tools the Company looks deeper to help companies improve global operations, enhance data-driven insights, increase customer satisfaction, and manage risk and compliance. The Company’s clients are located principally in the U.S. and the U.K.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of such statements for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated statements of income for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any subsequent period.

Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, the Company merged two of its operating segments (Operations Consulting and Finance Transformation, previously part of the Analytics and Business Transformation reportable segment) into the Consulting operating segment to reflect recent organizational changes. The Company has also revised its reportable segments to reflect management’s focus on the Analytics operating segment. All other operating segments have been aggregated into the Operations Management reportable segment.

The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:

• Operations Management, and

• Analytics.

The segment information for all prior periods presented herein has been restated to conform to the current presentation. This change in segment presentation does not affect the Company’s consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ExlService Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The non-controlling interest at March 31, 2016 represents the minority partner’s interest in the operations of ExlService Colombia S.A.S. ("Exl Colombia") and the profits associated with the minority partner’s interest in those operations, in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income, respectively. The non-controlling interest in such operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was insignificant and is included under general and administrative expenses in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.

(b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited consolidated statements of income during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best assessment of the current business environment, actual results may be different from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful receivables, service tax receivables, assets and obligations related to employee benefit plans, deferred tax valuation allowances, income-tax uncertainties and other contingencies, valuation of derivative financial instruments, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization periods, purchase price allocation, recoverability of long-term assets including goodwill and intangibles, and estimates to complete the fixed price contracts.

Other non-current liabilities	1,549		5,501
Non-current liabilities	$	13,565	$	17,655

(f) Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

For the Company, accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of amortization of actuarial gain/(loss) on retirement benefits and changes in the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments. In addition, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"). Changes in the fair values of contracts that are deemed effective are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the settlement of those contracts. The balances as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are as follows:

	December 31, 2015			December 31, 2015

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. The comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Adoption of the new rules could affect the timing of revenue recognition for certain transactions of the Company. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 using either one of two methods: (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU No. 2014-09; or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and the implementation approach to be used. 

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities". This guidance makes targeted improvements to existing US GAAP for financial instruments, including requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; requiring entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset and requiring entities to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption of the own credit provision is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the identification of arrangements that should be accounted for as leases by lessees. In general, for lease arrangements exceeding a twelve month term, these arrangements must now be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet of the lessee. Under ASU No. 2016-02, a right-of-use asset and lease obligation will be recorded for all leases, whether operating or financing, while the income statement will reflect lease expense for operating leases and amortization/interest expense for financing leases. The balance sheet amount recorded for existing leases at the date of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate at the date of adoption. In addition, ASU No. 2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and the implementation approach to be used.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging: Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships, which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity has the option to apply ASU No. 2016-05 on either a prospective basis or a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-05 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting.” Among other things, the amendments in ASU No. 2016-07 eliminate the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The guidance includes indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customers. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted but all of the guidance must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents issued and outstanding at the reporting date, using the treasury stock method. Stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Segment Information

The Company's operating segments are significant strategic business units that align its products and services with how it manages its business, approach the key markets and interacts with its clients. Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015, the Company merged two of its operating segments (Operations Consulting and Finance Transformation, previously part of the Analytics and Business Transformation reportable segment) into the Consulting operating segment to reflect recent organizational changes. The Company has also revised its reportable segments to reflect management’s focus on the Analytics operating segment. All the other operating segments have been aggregated into the Operations Management reportable segment.

The new reportable segments are as follows:

• Operations Management

• Analytics

The Company has restated the segment information for the all prior periods presented herein to conform to the current presentation. This change in segment presentation does not affect the Company's consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) generally reviews operating segment revenues and cost of revenues. The Company does not allocate and therefore the CODM does not evaluate operating expenses, interest expense and income taxes by segment. The Company’s operating assets are shared by multiple segments. The Company manages assets on a total company basis, not by operating segment, and therefore asset information and capital expenditures by operating segment are not presented.

Revenues and cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 for Operations Management and Analytics segments, respectively, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2016						Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

* Includes short-term investments carried on fair value option under ASC 825 of $82,536 as of March 31, 2016.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Fair values for derivative financial instruments are based on independent sources including highly rated financial institutions and are classified as Level 2. See Note 7 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein for further details on Derivatives and Hedge Accounting.

Fair value of earn-out consideration: The fair value measurement of earn-out consideration is determined using Level 3 inputs. The Company’s earn-out consideration represents a component of the total purchase consideration for its March 2015 acquisition of RPM Direct, LLC and RPM Data Solutions, LLC (together "RPM"). The measurement is calculated using unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assessment of achievement of certain performance goals by RPM during the 2015 and 2016 calendar years. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company estimated the fair value of the earn out consideration to be $3,810 and $4,060, respectively, utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte-Carlo simulation model simulates a range of possible performance levels and estimates the probabilities of the potential payouts. This model also incorporates a range of assumptions like discount rate, risk-free rate, assumed cost of debt, etc.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives and Hedge Accounting

Derivatives and Hedge Accounting

The Company uses derivative instruments and hedging transactions to mitigate exposure to foreign currency fluctuation risks associated with forecasted transactions denominated in certain foreign currencies and to minimize earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are largely forward foreign exchange contracts that are designated effective and that qualify as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. The Company had outstanding cash flow hedges totaling $218,365 as of March 31, 2016 and $230,894 as of December 31, 2015. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is included in the other comprehensive loss on the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge its intercompany balances and other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currencies. These derivatives do not qualify as fair value hedges under ASC No. 815. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in the consolidated statements of income and are included in foreign exchange gain/loss. The Company’s primary exchange rate exposure is with the Indian Rupee, the U.K. pound sterling and the Philippine peso. The Company also has exposure to Colombian pesos, Czech Koruna, Euro, South African ZAR and other local currencies in which it operates. Outstanding foreign currency forward contracts amounted to $59,290 and GBP 14,147 as of March 31, 2016 and amounted to $61,641 and GBP 13,256 as of December 31, 2015.

The Company estimates that approximately $3,257 of net derivative gains included in accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) could be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months based on exchange rates prevailing as of March 31, 2016. At March 31, 2016, the maximum outstanding term of the cash flow hedges was forty-five months.

The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at the time a contract is entered into as well as on an ongoing basis. If during this time, a contract is deemed ineffective, the change in the fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of income and is included in foreign exchange gain/(loss). For hedging positions that are discontinued because the forecasted transaction is not expected to occur by the end of the originally specified period, any related derivative amounts recorded in equity are reclassified to earnings. There were no such significant amounts of gains or losses that were reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The following tables set forth the fair value of the foreign currency exchange contracts and their location on the unaudited consolidated financial statements:

On October 24, 2014, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provided for a $50,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), including a letter of credit sub-facility, for a period of five years. The Company had an option to increase the commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50,000, subject to certain approvals and conditions as set forth in the Credit Agreement. On February 23, 2015, via an amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company exercised its option to increase credit commitments by another $50,000 upon the same terms and conditions which were available in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of October 24, 2019 and is voluntarily pre-payable from time to time without premium or penalty. The Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement effective as of September 28, 2015 to address a minor clarification to the definition of change of control.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital, general corporate purposes and for acquisitions. The Company has an outstanding debt of $65,000 and $70,000 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, of which $10,000 is expected to be repaid within next twelve months and is included under “short-term borrowings” in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The Credit Facility carried an effective interest rate of 1.90% per annum and 1.56% per annum, respectively during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

In connection with the financing, the Company incurred certain debt issuance costs, which are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility.

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company’s Gratuity Plans in India and the Philippines ("Gratuity Plan") provide for lump sum payment to vested employees on retirement or upon termination of employment in an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and years of employment with the Company. Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plans are determined by actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Current service costs for the Gratuity Plan are accrued in the year to which they relate. Actuarial gains or losses or prior service costs, if any, resulting from amendments to the plans are recognized and amortized over the remaining period of service of the employees.

Net gratuity cost includes the following components:

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company determines the tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of annual effective tax rate, and if its estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $5,895 and $6,213 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The effective tax rate decreased from 39.4% during the three months ended March 31, 2015 to 29.9% during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was the result of a higher income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to income tax expense of $1,818 related to immaterial errors for prior years. This decrease is partially offset by lower tax holiday benefits and an increase in the corporate tax rate applicable to certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016:

Balance as of January 1, 2016	$	2,797
Increases related to prior year tax positions	—

The unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2016 of $2,793, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has recognized interest of $50 and $99, respectively, which are included in the income tax expense in the unaudited consolidated statements of income. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has accrued approximately $1,319 and $1,269, respectively in interest relating to unrecognized tax benefits.

Commitments and Contingencies

Fixed Asset Commitments

At March 31, 2016, the Company has committed to spend approximately $6,510 under agreements to purchase fixed assets. This amount is net of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases.

Other Commitments

Certain units of the Company’s Indian subsidiaries were established as 100% Export-Oriented units or under the Software Technology Parks of India (“STPI”) scheme promulgated by the Government of India. These units are exempt from customs, central excise duties, and levies on imported and indigenous capital goods, stores, and spares. The Company has undertaken to pay custom duties, service taxes, levies, and liquidated damages payable, if any, in respect of imported and indigenous capital goods, stores and spares consumed duty free, in the event that certain terms and conditions are not fulfilled. The Company’s management believes, however, that these units have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required conditions.

The Company’s operations centers in the Philippines are registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (“PEZA”). The registration provides the Company with certain fiscal incentives on the import of capital goods and requires ExlService Philippines, Inc. to meet certain performance and investment criteria. The Company’s management believes that these centers have in the past satisfied and will continue to satisfy the required criteria.

Contingencies

U.S. and Indian transfer pricing regulations require that any international transaction involving associated enterprises be at an arm’s-length price. Accordingly, the Company determines the appropriate pricing for the international transactions among its associated enterprises on the basis of a detailed functional and economic analysis involving benchmarking against transactions among entities that are not under common control. The tax authorities have jurisdiction to review this arrangement and in the event that they determine that the transfer price applied was not appropriate, the Company may incur increased tax liability, including accrued interest and penalties. The Company is currently involved in disputes with the Indian tax authorities over the application of some of its transfer pricing policies for some of its subsidiaries. Further, the Company and a U.S. subsidiary are engaged in tax litigation with the income-tax authorities in India on the issue of permanent establishment.

The aggregate disputed amount demanded by Indian tax authorities from the Company related to its transfer pricing issues for years ranging from tax years 2003 to 2013 and its permanent establishment issues ranging from tax years 2003 to 2007 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is $20,835 and $21,360, respectively, of which the Company has made payments or provided bank guarantee to the extent $14,342 and $14,668, respectively. Amounts paid as deposits in respect of such assessments aggregating to $12,342 and $12,665 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are included in “Other assets” and amounts deposited for bank guarantees aggregating to $2,000 and $2,003 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, are included in “Restricted cash” in the non-current assets section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Based on advice from its Indian tax advisors, the facts underlying the Company’s position and its experience with these types of assessments, the Company believes that the probability that it will ultimately be found liable for these assessments is remote and accordingly has not accrued any amount with respect to these matters in its consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect any impact from these assessments on its future income tax expense. It is possible that the Company might receive similar orders or assessments from tax authorities for subsequent years. Accordingly even if these disputes are resolved, the Indian tax authorities may still serve additional orders or assessments.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2016

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Preparation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of such statements for the interim periods presented. The unaudited consolidated statements of income for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or for any subsequent period.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ExlService Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited consolidated statements of income during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best assessment of the current business environment, actual results may be different from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful receivables, service tax receivables, assets and obligations related to employee benefit plans, deferred tax valuation allowances, income-tax uncertainties and other contingencies, valuation of derivative financial instruments, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization periods, purchase price allocation, recoverability of long-term assets including goodwill and intangibles, and estimates to complete the fixed price contracts.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. The comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Adoption of the new rules could affect the timing of revenue recognition for certain transactions of the Company. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 using either one of two methods: (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU No. 2014-09; or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption and the implementation approach to be used. 

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities". This guidance makes targeted improvements to existing US GAAP for financial instruments, including requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; requiring entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset and requiring entities to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption of the own credit provision is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 2016-02 requires the identification of arrangements that should be accounted for as leases by lessees. In general, for lease arrangements exceeding a twelve month term, these arrangements must now be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet of the lessee. Under ASU No. 2016-02, a right-of-use asset and lease obligation will be recorded for all leases, whether operating or financing, while the income statement will reflect lease expense for operating leases and amortization/interest expense for financing leases. The balance sheet amount recorded for existing leases at the date of adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate at the date of adoption. In addition, ASU No. 2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and the implementation approach to be used.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging: Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships, which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity has the option to apply ASU No. 2016-05 on either a prospective basis or a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-05 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting.” Among other things, the amendments in ASU No. 2016-07 eliminate the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The guidance includes indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customers. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). ASU No. 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted but all of the guidance must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
