Insights
The reported financial results from Concentrix Corporation indicate a significant revenue increase of 46.8% year-over-year, which is a robust indicator of growth, particularly in the customer experience solutions and technology sector. However, the increase in revenue did not translate to a proportional increase in operating income or net income, with operating income seeing a decline of 4.9% and net income decreasing by 40.7%. This discrepancy suggests rising costs or potential inefficiencies that may be eroding margins. The operating margin contraction by 330 basis points is a critical point of analysis for stakeholders, as it could signal challenges in scaling operations while maintaining profitability.
Concentrix's commitment to a $100 million share repurchase program reflects a confidence in future cash flows and a shareholder-friendly capital allocation strategy. This, coupled with a steady dividend, may signal to investors a stable financial position. However, the cash flow used in operations and the adjusted free cash flow figures being in the negative territory are areas of concern. They could indicate that despite strong revenue growth, the company's cash management and operational efficiency need scrutiny.
For long-term implications, investors should monitor the company's ability to improve profit margins and cash flow in the context of its revenue growth. The guidance for the full year suggests a conservative revenue growth forecast on a proforma constant currency basis, which indicates management's cautious stance possibly due to macroeconomic factors or industry-specific challenges.
Concentrix's performance in the customer experience sector is notable for its AI and technology-led solutions, which are driving the high end of revenue guidance. The sector is increasingly competitive and innovation-driven, so the company's emphasis on AI could be a differentiator that supports sustained growth. The growth in adjusted EBITDA by 50.2% is a positive sign, as it suggests that the company's core operations are generating increased profits before accounting for non-operational financial factors.
From a market perspective, the guidance for the second quarter and full fiscal year reflects a cautious optimism with expected pro forma constant currency revenue growth. The impact of foreign exchange rates is not negligible; it's expected to negatively impact revenue, which is a common challenge for global businesses like Concentrix. Investors should appreciate the transparency in how these external factors are expected to influence financial performance.
Understanding the company's market positioning and competitive landscape is essential. Investors should consider how Concentrix's pipeline and innovation in AI solutions position it against competitors and how effectively it can capitalize on the increasing demand for advanced customer experience services.
The financial results of Concentrix must be contextualized within the broader economic environment. The negative impact of foreign exchange rates on revenue projections is a reflection of the current volatility in global currency markets. This volatility can be attributed to various macroeconomic factors, including trade tensions, interest rate differentials and geopolitical uncertainties. Companies like Concentrix that operate on a global scale are particularly susceptible to these fluctuations.
Furthermore, the company's pro forma constant currency revenue growth is modest, which could be indicative of a maturing market or increased competition. It's also possible that it reflects a strategic focus on profitable growth rather than expansion at any cost. Investors should consider these growth rates in light of the overall economic conditions and industry trends, such as digital transformation and the increasing importance of customer experience in business strategy.
Long-term, the company's investment in AI and technology, as well as its share repurchase program, suggest a belief in its own growth potential. However, it's important to assess whether these investments will yield the expected returns in an economic climate that may be facing headwinds such as potential recessions or continued currency instability.
- Revenue at high end of guidance range
- Well-positioned for Q2 with a strong pipeline
- Confirming full year business outlook for revenue, profit, cash flow
- Committed to share repurchases of
$100 million over remainder of 2024

Business Outlook
The following statements are based on the Company’s current expectations for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and the full year fiscal 2024. 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. The non-GAAP EPS guidance assumes no impact from changes in acquisition contingent consideration and foreign currency losses (gains), net included in other expense (income), net. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Expectations:
- Second quarter reported revenue is expected to be in the range of
$2.32 5 billion to$2.37 2 billion. Based on current exchange rates, our expectations assume an approximately 160-basis point negative impact of foreign exchange rates compared with the prior year period. Our guidance implies pro forma constant currency revenue growth for the second quarter in the range of1% to3% . - Operating income is expected to be in the range of
$161 million to$163 million and non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of$320 million to$330 million . - Non-GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of
$2.55 t o$2.70 , assuming approximately 65.5 million diluted common shares outstanding and approximately4% of net income attributable to participating securities. - The effective tax rate is expected to approximate
26% to27% .
Full Year Fiscal 2024 Expectations:
- Full year reported revenue is expected to be in the range of
$9.51 0 billion to$9.70 0 billion. Based on current exchange rates, our expectations assume an approximately 70-basis point negative impact of foreign exchange rates compared with the prior year. Our guidance implies pro forma constant currency revenue growth for the full year in the range of1% to3% . - Operating income is expected to be in the range of
$770 million to$800 million and non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of$1,390 million to$1,450 million . - Non-GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of
$11.69 t o$12.50 , assuming approximately 65.3 million diluted common shares outstanding and approximately4% of net income attributable to participating securities. - The effective tax rate is expected to approximate
26% to27% . - We expect to repurchase
$100 million of our common stock over the final three quarters of fiscal 2024.
The Company believes that a quantitative reconciliation of the non-GAAP EPS outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measures cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts due to (a) the inability to forecast future changes in acquisition contingent consideration, which is based, in part, on the future trading price of the Company’s common stock, and (b) the inability to forecast future foreign currency losses (gains), net included in other expense (income), net. For the same reason, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which may have a material impact on the Company’s GAAP results.

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.
- Pro forma constant currency revenue growth, which is constant currency revenue growth measured against the Company’s combined pro forma results of operations as if the combination with Webhelp had occurred on December 1, 2022.
- Non-GAAP operating income, which is operating income, adjusted to exclude acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, step-up depreciation, 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 (exclusive of step-up 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, step-up depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, imputed interest related to the sellers’ note, change in acquisition contingent consideration and foreign currency losses (gains), net.
- Free cash flow, which is cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, and adjusted free cash flow, which is free cash flow excluding the effect of changes in the outstanding factoring balance. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful measure of cash flows since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations. We believe that adjusted free cash flow is a meaningful measure of cash flows because it removes the effect of factoring which changes the timing of the receipt of cash for certain receivables. However, free cash flow and adjusted cash flow have limitations because they do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow do not incorporate payments for business acquisitions.
- Non-GAAP diluted EPS, which is diluted EPS excluding the per share, tax-effected impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, step-up depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, imputed interest related to the sellers’ note, change in acquisition contingent consideration and foreign currency losses (gains), net. Non-GAAP EPS excludes net income attributable to participating securities and the related per share, tax-effected impact of adjustments to net income described above reflect only those amounts that are attributable to common shareholders.
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.
