Revenue in the first quarter was $207.8 million, representing a 3.1% decrease versus Q1 of last year and a 16.3% decrease from the previous quarter. Revenue less repair payments* in the first quarter was $201.4 million, a decrease of 4.8% year-over-year and 14.6% sequentially. Excluding exchange rate impacts, constant currency revenue less repair payments* in the fiscal first quarter were down 1.9% versus Q1 of last year and 12.5% sequentially. Both year-over-year and sequentially, fiscal Q1 revenue was adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic including lower volume requirements from certain clients and service delivery constraints resulting from the transition to a “work from home” delivery model, and by currency movements net of hedging.
 
Profit in the fiscal first quarter was $14.8 million, as compared to $27.6 million in Q1 of last year and $29.5 million in the previous quarter. Year-over-year, profit reductions were driven by lower revenue resulting from demand and service delivery impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, increased business continuity costs, higher share-based compensation expense, and a higher effective tax rate. These headwinds were partially offset by favorable currency movements net of hedging and reductions in travel, facility-related, and discretionary expenditures. Sequentially, Q1 profit was reduced as the company incurred a full quarter of COVID-related headwinds versus just two weeks of impact in the prior quarter, including revenue reductions resulting from service delivery constraints and lower demand, and additional business continuity costs.  Profit was also reduced as a result of increased share-based compensation expense and a higher effective tax rate. These sequential headwinds more than offset favorability from the $4.1 million non-recurring goodwill impairment charge in Q4 for WNS AutoClaims, and reductions in travel, facility-related, and discretionary expenditures.
 
Adjusted net income (ANI)* in Q1 was $26.1 million, down $11.5 million as compared to Q1 of last year and down $16.3 million from the previous quarter. Explanations for the ANI* movements on a year-over-year and sequential basis are the same as described for GAAP profit above with the exception of goodwill impairment, share-based compensation, and associated tax impacts, which are excluded from ANI*.
 
From a balance sheet perspective, WNS ended Q1 with $321.1 million in cash and investments and $33.5 million of debt. In the first quarter, the company generated $25.1 million in cash from operations and incurred $6.4 million in capital expenditures, including $2.0 million for the purchase of desktops and laptops related to COVID-19 “work from home” delivery. First quarter days sales outstanding were 39 days, as compared to 30 days reported in Q1 of last year and 31 days in the previous quarter.  The increase in DSO is the result of payment delays and payment term concessions relating to COVID-19.
 
“As expected, the COVID-19 pandemic had a material adverse impact on our fiscal first quarter financial performance. Revenue headwinds in Q1 were driven by volume reductions across several key verticals, and by service delivery constraints resulting from global facility lockdowns,” said Keshav Murugesh, WNS’s Chief Executive Officer.  “During Q1, WNS made tremendous progress in transitioning our delivery to a work-from-home model and providing business continuity to our clients.  Today, WNS is delivering 95% of our clients’ requirements, primarily from our employees’ homes.  In addition, we are beginning to see clients willing to discuss, and in some cases move forward with, new BPM opportunities despite the challenging and uncertain business environment. WNS remains focused on ensuring the health and safety of our more than 43,000 global employees and on securely servicing the needs of our clients.  While we understand that our financial performance in fiscal 2021 will be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, our goal is to manage what is within our control, continue to invest and innovate, and remain focused on the long-term BPM opportunity.  We believe that over the next few years, this pandemic may have potential to drive acceleration in the adoption of BPM services.”
 
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant impact on the global economy, our clients’ businesses, and on WNS’s operations, financials, and visibility. Revenue is currently being pressured by declining client volumes, delays in new business ramps, client concessions, and facility lockdowns which impact service delivery.  WNS is actively working to understand our clients’ changing requirements, adapt our service delivery models, ensure data security, and manage costs. The company is now able to deliver 95% of our clients’ current requirements, an increase from over 80% as reported on April 23, 2020. As expected, the adverse impact of COVID-19 on fiscal Q1 2021 operations and financials was much greater than in the previous quarter, as the fiscal Q4 2020 impact was limited to the second half of March. Impacts to our full year financial performance will be a function of how long the COVID-19 pandemic lasts on a global basis, and how long it takes our clients’ businesses to stabilize and recover.
 
Fiscal Q2 2021 Guidance
WNS is providing guidance for the fiscal 2021 second quarter ending September 30, 2020 as follows:
 
  • Revenue less repair payments* is expected to be between $198 million and $208 million. The company currently has over 98% visibility to the midpoint of this range. Guidance assumes an average GBP to USD exchange rate of 1.25 for the quarter.
  • ANI* is expected to range between $24 million and $30 million.  Guidance assumes an average USD to INR exchange rate of 75.00 for the quarter.
  • Based on a diluted share count of 51.7 million shares, the company expects adjusted diluted earnings* per ADS to be in the range of $0.46 to $0.58 for the quarter.

“Based on the volatility and lack of visibility stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated impacts on WNS’s and our clients’ businesses, the company has extended our suspension of annual guidance. WNS will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and plans to resume annual guidance when visibility improves. In the meantime, our business remains in a strong financial position, ending the first quarter with $288 million in net cash*, $84 million in unused lines of credit, and a business model with low capital requirements and substantial operating cost flexibility,” said Sanjay Puria, WNS’s Chief Financial Officer.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial information in this release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe more accurately reflect our core operating performance. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to our GAAP operating results are included below. A more detailed discussion of our GAAP results is contained in “Part I –Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 1, 2020.
 
For financial statement reporting purposes, WNS has two reportable segments: WNS Global BPM and WNS Auto Claims BPM. Revenue less repair payments is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as (a) revenue less (b) in the auto claims business, payments to repair centers for “fault” repair cases where WNS acts as the principal in its dealings with the third party repair centers and its clients. WNS believes that revenue less repair payments for “fault” repairs reflects more accurately the value addition of the business process management services that it directly provides to its clients. For more details, please see the discussion in “Part I – Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Overview” in our annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 1, 2020.
 
Constant currency revenue less repair payments is a non-GAAP financial measure. We present constant currency revenue less repair payments so that revenue less repair payments may be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance. Constant currency revenue less repair payments is presented by recalculating prior period’s revenue less repair payments denominated in currencies other than in US dollars using the foreign exchange rate used for the latest period, without taking into account the impact of hedging gains/losses. Our non-US dollar denominated revenues include, but are not limited to, revenues denominated in pound sterling, South African rand, Australian dollar and Euro.
 
WNS also presents or discusses (1) adjusted operating margin, which refers to adjusted operating profit (calculated as operating profit / (loss) excluding goodwill impairment, share-based expense and amortization of intangible assets) as a percentage of revenue less repair payments, (2) ANI, which is calculated as profit excluding goodwill impairment, share-based expense and amortization of intangible assets and including the tax effect thereon, (3) Adjusted net income margin, which refers to ANI as a percentage of revenue less repair payments, (4) net cash, which refers to cash and cash equivalents plus investments less long-term debt (including the current portion) and other non-GAAP financial measures included in this release as supplemental measures of its performance. WNS presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes they assist investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that are non-recurring in nature and those it believes are not indicative of its core operating performance. In addition, it uses these non-GAAP financial measures (i) as a factor in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation and (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for WNS’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS.
 
The company is not able to provide our forward-looking GAAP revenue, profit and earnings per ADS without unreasonable efforts for a number of reasons, including our inability to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the payments to repair centers, our future share-based compensation expense under IFRS 2 (Share Based payments), amortization of intangibles associated with future acquisitions, goodwill impairment and currency fluctuations. As a result, any attempt to provide a reconciliation of the forward-looking GAAP financial measures (revenue, profit, earnings per ADS) to our forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures (revenue less repair payments*, ANI* and Adjusted diluted earnings* per ADS, respectively) would imply a degree of likelihood that we do not believe is reasonable.

(1) The company applies GAAP methodologies in computing the tax impact on its non-GAAP ANI adjustments (including amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation expense). The company’s non-GAAP tax expense is generally higher than its GAAP tax expense if the income subject to taxes is higher considering the effect of the items excluded from GAAP profit to arrive at non-GAAP profit.
