ST. LOUIS, July 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Amdocs Limited (NYSE: DOX)
today reported that for its fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2008,
revenue was $820.3 million, an increase of 15.2% from last year's third
quarter. Net income on a non-GAAP basis was $132.5 million, or $0.61 per
diluted share (excluding acquisition-related costs, which include
amortization of purchased intangible assets and in-process research and
development write-off, and excluding equity-based compensation expense, net
of related tax effects, of $31.8 million), compared to non-GAAP net income
of $120.6 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, in the third quarter of
fiscal 2007 (excluding acquisition-related costs, which include
amortization of purchased intangible assets and equity-based compensation
expense, net of related tax effects, of $32.4 million). The Company's GAAP
net income was $100.7 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to GAAP
net income of $88.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the third
quarter of fiscal 2007. Free cash flow for the quarter was $83.2 million,
comprised of cash flow from operations of $115.1 million less $31.9 million
in net capital expenditures and other.
"Our role as a strategic partner with our customers is translating into
excellent business results for Amdocs," said Dov Baharav, chief executive

providers around the world. Our unique combination of industry-leading
integrated products, services and domain expertise provides us with growth
opportunities in areas such as managed services and transformational
projects in developed markets and in emerging markets around the world. We
continue to see strong demand at this time but there are macro-economic
uncertainties which may have an impact on our results in the future. We
believe that we are well-positioned for future growth."
In the third quarter Amdocs had numerous wins across lines of business
and geographies. The Company had a win in North America with the Amdocs CES
- Qpass 7.5 offering and continues to show momentum in broadband cable and
satellite with wins for operational support systems (OSS) and mediation
solutions. Amdocs had additional OSS success including a win in Asia
Pacific, which builds on a strong existing relationship, and in Europe with
Slovak Telecom. Amdocs enjoyed success in emerging markets as Bakcell in
Azerbaijan selected Amdocs Compact Convergence Suite and another service
provider chose Amdocs CRM.
Financial Outlook

be approximately $825-$835 million. Amdocs expects diluted earnings per
share on a non-GAAP basis for the fourth quarter to be $0.61-$0.63,
excluding acquisition-related costs and approximately $0.06-$0.07 per share
of equity-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects. Diluted
GAAP EPS is expected to be approximately $0.47-$0.50.
Amdocs will host a conference call on July 23, 2008 at 5 p.m. Eastern
Time to discuss the Company's third quarter results. The call will be
carried live on the Internet via www.InvestorCalendar.com and the Amdocs
website, www.amdocs.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other
non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow, non-GAAP cost of
service, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and
administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP income taxes and
non-GAAP net income. These non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:
-- amortization of purchased intangible assets;
-- in-process research and development write-off and other;
-- restructuring charges;
-- equity-based compensation expense; and
-- tax effects related to the above.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an
alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be
different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In
addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any
comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Amdocs believes that
non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect
all of the amounts associated with Amdocs' results of operations as
determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be
used to evaluate Amdocs' results of operations in conjunction with the
corresponding GAAP measures.
Amdocs believes that the presentation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per
share and other financial measures, including free cash flow, non-GAAP cost
of service, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general
and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP income taxes and
non-GAAP net income, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP
measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding
financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and
results of operations as well as the net amount of cash generated by its
business operations after taking into account capital spending required to
maintain or expand the business.
For its internal budgeting process and in monitoring the results of the
business, Amdocs' management uses financial statements that do not include
amortization of purchased intangible assets, in-process research and
development write-off and other, restructuring charges, equity-based
compensation expense, and related tax effects. Amdocs' management also uses
the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding
GAAP measures, in reviewing the financial results of Amdocs. In addition,
Amdocs believes that significant groups of investors exclude these non-cash
expenses in reviewing its results and those of its competitors, because the
amounts of the expenses between companies can vary greatly depending on the
assumptions used by an individual company in determining the amounts of the
expenses.
Amdocs further believes that, where the adjustments used in calculating
non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are based on specific, identified
amounts that impact different line items in the Consolidated Statements of
Income (including cost of service, research and development, selling,
general and administrative, operating income, income taxes and net income),
it is useful to investors to understand how these specific line items in
the Consolidated Statements of Income are affected by these adjustments.

GAAP to Non-GAAP tables below.
