"We are focused on driving returns for our shareholders by investing to expand the business while executing a balanced approach to capital deployment,” said Chris Caldwell, Concentrix President and CEO. “Our outlook for the balance of the year includes increased foreign currency headwinds with changes in a small portion of our client base looking to move more work offshore. Broad-based strength across the business, strong wins with enterprise and new-economy clients, and a robust pipeline across



our strategic verticals keep us confident that we will continue to grow faster than the market while expanding our margins."

Quarterly Dividend and Share Repurchase Program:
Concentrix paid a $0.25 per share quarterly dividend on May 10, 2022. The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share payable on August 9, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 29, 2022.
Concentrix repurchased 0.4 million shares in the second quarter at a cost of $57.8 million under its previously announced share repurchase program. At May 31, 2022, the Company’s remaining share repurchase authorization was $417.1 million.

Third Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2022 Outlook
The following statements are based on Concentrix’ current expectations for the third quarter and full year fiscal 2022. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, share-based compensation and the related tax effects thereon. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Expectations:
Third quarter revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.575 billion to $1.605 billion, up approximately 13% to 15% as reported, including a 3-point negative impact of foreign exchange rates compared with the prior year period. This equates to 7% to 9% growth on an adjusted constant currency basis, which excludes a 9-point positive impact of businesses acquired and divested since the start of the prior year third quarter and the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.
Third quarter operating income is expected to be in the range of $161 million to $176 million and non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $220 million to $235 million.
The effective tax rate is expected to approximate 24% to 25%.

Full Year 2022 Expectations:
Revenue is expected to be in the range of $6.365 billion to $6.415 billion, up approximately 14% to 15% as reported, including a 3-point negative impact of foreign exchange rates compared with the prior year. This equates to 9% to 10% growth on an adjusted constant currency basis, which excludes an 8-point positive impact of businesses acquired and divested since the start of fiscal year 2021 and the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.
Operating income is expected to be in the range of $663 million to $688 million and non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $890 million to $915 million.
The effective tax rate is expected to approximate 24% to 25%.

Use of Non-GAAP Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial information, including:

Constant currency revenue growth, which is revenue growth adjusted for the translation effect of foreign currencies so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Constant currency revenue growth is calculated by translating the revenue of each fiscal year in the billing currency to U.S. dollars using the comparable prior year’s currency conversion rate in comparison to prior year’s revenue. Generally, when the U.S. dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, revenue growth at constant currency rates or adjusting for currency will be higher or lower than revenue growth reported at actual exchange rates.
Adjusted constant currency revenue growth, which is constant currency revenue growth excluding revenue for businesses acquired or divested since the beginning of the prior year period so that revenue growth can be viewed without the impact of acquisitions or divestitures, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.
Non-GAAP operating income, which is operating income, adjusted to exclude acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, and share-based compensation.
Non-GAAP operating margin, which is non-GAAP operating income, as defined above, divided by revenue.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, which is non-GAAP operating income, as defined above, plus depreciation.
Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, divided by revenue.
Non-GAAP net income, which is net income excluding the tax effected impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, and share-based compensation.
Free cash flow, which is cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful measure of cash flows since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations. However, free cash flow has limitations because it does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example, free cash flow does not incorporate payments for business acquisitions.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”), which is diluted EPS excluding the per share, tax effected impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, amortization of intangible assets, and share-based compensation.

We believe that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand our base operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods and for planning and forecasting in future periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in some cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude amortization of intangible assets. Although intangible assets contribute to our revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the services performed for our clients. Additionally, intangible asset amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of our acquisition activity. Accordingly, we believe excluding the amortization of intangible assets, along with the other non-GAAP adjustments, which neither relate to the ordinary course of our business nor reflect our underlying business performance, enhances our and our investors’ ability to compare our past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. These non-GAAP financial measures also exclude share-based compensation expense. Given the subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use when calculating share-based compensation expense, management believes this additional information allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of our peers. As these non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not



be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

(1) The tax effect of taxable and deductible non-GAAP adjustments was calculated using the tax-deductible portion of the expenses and applying the entity-specific, statutory tax rates applicable to each item during the respective periods presented.

(2) In the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, we reached an agreement to sell our Concentrix Insurance Solutions (“CIS”) business and, therefore, we were no longer indefinitely reinvested with respect to our investment in this subsidiary. This amount represents the income tax impact of the change in this reinvestment assertion.

(3) Diluted EPS is calculated using the two-class method. Unvested restricted stock awards granted to employees are considered participating securities.
