“I am very pleased to report another very solid quarter, despite all the geo-political turmoil in Eastern Europe over the last six months. Our strong focus on the high growth portion of global software services market and continued delivery of high quality solutions to our clients allowed us to over-perform the original organic forecast as well as the general market.” said Arkadiy Dobkin, CEO and President of EPAM. “Combined with several relatively small but important acquisitions our top-line grew over 30% this quarter setting a good base for achieving our annual and longer-term strategic goals.”

Non-GAAP net income growth for 2014 is expected to be in the range of 26% to 28% year-over-year, with an effective tax rate of 20%. The full year weighted average share count is expected to be just over 50 million diluted shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EPAM supplements results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, referred to as GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in EPAM’s business and uses the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing EPAM’s business and evaluating its performance. Management also believes these measures help investors compare EPAM’s operating performance with its results in prior periods and compare EPAM and similar companies. EPAM anticipates that it will continue to report both GAAP and certain non-GAAP financial measures in its financial results, including non-GAAP results that exclude stock-based compensation expense, write-off and recovery, amortization of purchased intangible assets, goodwill impairment, legal settlement, foreign exchange gains and losses, and acquisition-related costs. However, because EPAM’s reported non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated according to GAAP, these measures are not comparable to GAAP and may not necessarily be comparable to similarly described non-GAAP measures reported by other companies within EPAM’s industry. Consequently, EPAM’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be evaluated in isolation or supplant comparable GAAP measures, but, rather, should be considered together with its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared according to GAAP.
