About Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. Such non-GAAP financial measures are measures of our historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that are adjusted to exclude or include amounts that are excluded or included, as the case may be, from the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.

The table on page 7 provides IT Services Revenue on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by translating IT Services Revenue from the current reporting period into U.S. dollars based on the currency conversion rate in effect for the prior reporting period. We refer to growth rates in constant currency so that business results may be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.


This non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition to this non-GAAP measure, the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure should be carefully evaluated.

Results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2015, prepared under IFRS, along with individual business segment reports, are available in the Investors section of our website www.wipro.com.

Quarterly Conference Call

We will hold an earnings conference call today at 07:15 p.m. Indian Standard Time (09:45 a.m. US Eastern Time) to discuss our performance for the quarter. An audio recording of the management discussions and the question and answer session will be available online and will be accessible in the Investor Relations section of our website at www.wipro.com.

8. Business Combination

Opus Capital Markets Consultants LLC

On January 14, 2014, the Company had obtained control of Opus Capital Markets Consultants LLC (‘Opus’) by acquiring 100% of its share capital. Opus is a US-based provider of mortgage due diligence and risk management services. The acquisition will strengthen Wipro’s mortgage solutions and complement its existing offerings in mortgage origination, servicing and secondary market.

The acquisition was executed through a share purchase agreement for a consideration of LOGO 4,589 million (US$ 75 million) which includes a deferred earn-out component of LOGO 1,285 million (US$ 21 million), which is dependent on achievement of revenues and earnings over a period of 3 years. This earn-out liability was fair valued at LOGO 782 million and recorded as part of preliminary purchase price allocation.

During the three months ended 31 December 2014, the Company concluded the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on acquisition. Consequently, the fair value of earn-out liability was recorded at LOGO 589 million. Comparatives have not been retrospectively revised as the amounts are not material.

The goodwill of LOGO 2,810 comprises of value of expected synergies arising from the acquisition.

As at December 31 2014, the fair value of earn-out liability was determined to be LOGO 144 as a result of changes in estimates of revenue and earnings over the earn-out period. The revision of the estimates has inter alia resulted in reduction in the carrying value of intangibles recognized on acquisition. Accordingly, a net gain of LOGO 470 has been recorded in the statement of income.

The fair value of earn-out consideration as at the period end was estimated by applying the Discounted Cash Flow approach. The fair value estimates are based on discount rate of 7% and probability adjusted revenue and earnings estimates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, an amount of LOGO 39 has been paid to the sellers representing earn-out payments for the calendar year 2014.

ATCO I-Tek Inc.

On August 15, 2014, the Company obtained control of ATCO I-Tek Inc., a Canadian entity, by acquiring 100% of its share capital and certain assets of IT services business of ATCO I-Tek Australia (hereafter the acquisitions are collectively referred to as ‘acquisition of ATCO I-Tek’) for an all-cash consideration of LOGO 11,420 million (Canadian Dollars 204 million). ATCO I-Tek provides IT services to ATCO Group. The acquisition will strengthen Wipro’s IT services delivery model in North America and Australia.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, LOGO 349 has been adjusted to the purchase price representing closure of certain closing conditions. This has resulted in reduction of goodwill as at March 31, 2015. Consequently, the Company concluded the fair value adjustments of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on acquisition.
