  • For the full year, EPAM increases expected range for revenues to now be $4.685 billion to $4.695 billion, increases expected GAAP diluted EPS to now be in the range of $7.78 to $7.86 and non-GAAP diluted EPS to now be in the range of $10.73 to $10.81

NEWTOWN, Pa., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE: EPAM), a leading digital transformation services and product engineering company, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

"We are pleased with our strong third-quarter results and the ongoing improvement across our business. We continue to help our clients adapt and modernize their businesses, including deploying world-class solutions enabled by GenAI," said Arkadiy Dobkin, CEO & President at EPAM. "Our recent acquisition of NEORIS illustrates our strong commitment to diversifying our global delivery platform and our readiness to enter new markets to best serve our enterprise clients."

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

  • Revenues increased to $1.168 billion, a year-over-year increase of $15.4 million, or 1.3%. On an organic constant currency basis excluding the impact of the exit from Russia, revenues were down 0.3% compared to the third quarter of 2023;
  • We recorded a benefit of $52.0 million for research & development government incentives in Poland. Specifically, $22.9 million of the benefit related to activities performed during 2023 and $29.1 million of the benefit related to activities performed during the first nine months of 2024. This benefit was included as a reduction to our Cost of revenues. The incentives are granted under Polish law, which allows businesses to reduce their tax base through bonus deductions for certain costs, including compensation expenses, incurred while performing innovative activities. The impact of this benefit on net income was partially offset as the incentives drove a higher effective tax rate for both GAAP and non-GAAP results. We expect the incentive will be recurring with benefits recognized in the fourth quarter and continuing thereafter.
  • GAAP income from operations was $177.0 million, an increase of $63.0 million, or 55.2%, compared to $114.0 million in the third quarter of 2023. GAAP income from operations benefited from the recognition of $52.0 million of incentives related to research and development activities performed in Poland;
  • Non-GAAP income from operations was $222.9 million, an increase of $27.3 million, or 14.0%, compared to $195.6 million in the third quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP income from operations benefited from the recognition of $29.1 million of incentives related to research and development activities performed in Poland in 2024;
  • Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on a GAAP basis was $2.37, an increase of $0.72, or 43.6%, compared to $1.65 in the third quarter of 2023. EPS on a GAAP basis was positively impacted by the recognition of the Polish incentives, which increased income from operations. However, this benefit was partially offset by an increase to the effective tax rate;
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $3.12, an increase of $0.39, or 14.3%, compared to $2.73 in the third quarter of 2023. EPS on a non-GAAP basis was positively impacted by the recognition of the Polish incentives for activities performed during the first nine months of 2024, which increased income from operations. However, this benefit was partially offset by an increase to the effective tax rate; and
  • On November 1, 2024, EPAM completed its acquisition of NEORIS, a Miami -headquartered global advanced technology consultancy with approximately 4,800 professionals across major talent hubs in Latin America, Spain and the U.S.

Cash Flow and Other Metrics

  • Cash provided by operating activities was $428.9 million for the first nine months of 2024, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $391.3 million for the first nine months of 2023;
  • Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $2.041 billion as of September 30, 2024, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 0.1%, from $2.043 billion as of December 31, 2023; and
  • Total headcount was approximately 53,250 as of September 30, 2024. Included in this number were approximately 47,750 delivery professionals, an increase of 1.6% from June 30, 2024.

2024 Outlook - Full Year and Fourth Quarter

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EPAM supplements results reported in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, 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, communicate 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. 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 expenses, acquisition-related costs including amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of assets, expenses associated with EPAM's humanitarian commitment to its professionals in Ukraine, unbilled business continuity resources resulting from Russia's invasion of Ukraine, costs associated with the geographic repositioning of EPAM employees based outside of Ukraine impacted by the war and geopolitical instability in the region, employee separation costs incurred in connection with restructuring programs including the Company's exit from Russia, certain other one-time charges and benefits, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, foreign exchange gains and losses, excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, and the related effect on income taxes of the pre-tax adjustments. Management also compares revenues on an "organic constant currency basis excluding the impact of the exit from Russia " and an "organic constant currency basis," which are also non-GAAP financial measures. These measures exclude the effect of acquisitions by removing revenues from an acquired company in the twelve months after completing an acquisition and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations by translating the current period revenues into U.S. dollars at the weighted average exchange rates of the prior period of comparison. In addition, revenues on an "organic constant currency basis excluding the impact of the exit from Russia " reflect the decision to exit from Russia by removing revenues from clients located in Russia in both the current period and prior period of comparison. Because EPAM's reported non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, these measures are not comparable to GAAP and may not 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 the information in EPAM's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(a) We have excluded from non-GAAP results the portion of the benefit from Poland R&D incentives related to qualifying activities performed in 2023 as it represents a nonrecurring one-time benefit.


(b) Humanitarian support in Ukraine includes expenses related to EPAM's $100 million humanitarian commitment in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine to support EPAM professionals and their families in and displaced from Ukraine. These expenses are incremental to those expenses incurred prior to the crisis, clearly separable from normal operations, and not expected to recur once the crisis has subsided and operations return to normal.


(c) Given the uncertainty in the region introduced by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, EPAM has assigned delivery professionals in locations outside of the region to ensure the continuity of delivery for clients who have substantial delivery exposure to Ukraine or other delivery concerns resulting from the invasion. These employees are not billed to clients and operate largely in a standby or backup capacity. These expenses are incremental to those expenses incurred prior to the crisis, clearly separable from normal operations, and not expected to recur once the crisis has subsided and operations return to normal.


(d) Cost Optimization charges include severance, facilities and contract termination charges incurred in connection with the programs initiated in the third quarter of 2023 and second quarter of 2024. Consistent with the Company's historical non-GAAP policy, costs incurred in connection with formal restructuring initiatives have been excluded from non-GAAP results as these are one-time and unusual in nature.


(e) Geographic repositioning includes expenses associated with the relocation to other countries of employees based outside of Ukraine impacted by the war and geopolitical instability in the region, and includes the cost of accommodations, travel and food. These expenses are incremental to those expenses incurred prior to the crisis, clearly separable from normal operations, and not expected to recur once the crisis has subsided and operations return to normal.


(f) On July 26, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its remaining operations in Russia and recorded a loss on sale of approximately $25.9 million during the third quarter of 2023, including the recognition of the accumulated currency translation loss related to this foreign entity that was previously included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company excluded this loss from non-GAAP results as it is one-time and unusual in nature.


(g) One-time benefit related to the implementation of tax planning to disregard certain foreign subsidiaries as separate entities for U.S. income tax purposes. Consistent with the Company's historical non-GAAP policy, the benefit related to the implementation of tax planning has been excluded from non-GAAP results as it is one-time and unusual in nature.
