Management Commentary
“We are very pleased with our results this quarter, generating strong growth in both revenue and profitability, underscoring the resilience of our organization and each and every one of our employees,” said Aparup Sengupta, Executive Chairman and Global CEO of Startek. “We delivered growth across our key verticals, healthcare in particular, aided by contributions from the COVID-19 assistance programs we supported throughout the United States as domestic vaccine rollout efforts accelerated. Our continued commitment to prudent cost management further enhanced our operational efficiency during the quarter. I am proud of our robust recovery from the lows of the pandemic last year, which is a testament to our team’s strong execution on driving new business, as well as leveraging the increasing flexibility of our platform.
“Across our client base, we maintained our focus on high-quality customer service and partnerships, as our clients continued to navigate their recovery amid various macroeconomic and industry-specific factors. Recovery-related tailwinds benefited our partners across business and financial services, media and cable, local travel, and e-commerce, with even long-challenged verticals such as telecom beginning their return to growth. Contributions from our U.S. COVID-19 assistance support initiatives drove significant growth within our health and education sector as we used our platform’s expanded range of capabilities to help facilitate vaccine drives in communities throughout the U.S. While we do not expect to continue this government program in the back half of the year, the comprehensive support we were able to provide demonstrates that our improved scale and resources position us well for future extensive, large-scale government opportunities.
“On the digital front, we continue to focus and invest in expanding our capabilities, paving the way for a best-in-class omni-channel customer experience. Most recently, we announced our collaboration with Automation Anywhere™, a global leader in cloud robotic process automation that will enable us to implement AI-powered capabilities across our customer experience value chain. Initiatives like these spur efficiency among our workforce and client base alike, allowing our client organizations to spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time on business-critical projects.
“As we continue into the second half of 2021, we are closely monitoring changes in recovery progress and health protocols around the world as we further support our clients and workforce. Within our ongoing digital transformation, we plan to balance our prudent cost management with strategic investments in support of key market-facing growth initiatives. We remain committed to optimizing our platform and maximizing our organizational efficiency as we work to generate additional value for our clients and shareholders.”

STARTEK, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURE
(In thousands)
(Unaudited)
This press release contains references to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA. Reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to its comparable GAAP measure is included below. This non-GAAP information should not be construed as an alternative to the reported results determined in accordance with GAAP. It is provided solely to assist in an investor’s understanding of these items on the comparability of the Company’s operations.
Adjusted EBITDA:
The Company defines non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as Net loss plus Income tax expense, Interest and other expense, net, Exchange gain / (loss), net, Depreciation and amortization expense, Restructuring and other acquisition-related costs, Share-based compensation expense, and Warrant contra revenue (if applicable). Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure to analyze the performance of our business. Management believes that excluding these non-cash and other non-recurring items permits a more meaningful comparison and understanding of the strength and performance of our ongoing operations for our investors and analysts.
Adjusted EPS:
Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure presenting the earnings generated by the ongoing operations that we believe are useful to investors in making meaningful comparisons to other companies, although our measure of Adjusted EPS may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies, and period-over-period comparisons. Adjusted EPS is defined as our diluted earnings per common share attributable to StarTek shareholders adjusted to exclude the effects of the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, investments that investors may want to evaluate separately (such as based on fair value), and the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges that affect period-over-period comparisons. Acquisition-related intangible assets are recognized as a result of the application of Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (such as customer relationships and Brand), and their amortization is significantly affected by the size and timing of our acquisitions.
