First quarter revenues of $200.0 million, up 25% year-over-year
Non-GAAP net income grew more than 34% for the first quarter year-over-year
Newtown, PA - May 6, 2015 - EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE: EPAM), a leading global
provider of complex software engineering solutions and a leader in delivery
capacity distributed across Central and Eastern Europe, today announced results
for its first quarter ended March 31, 2015.
First Quarter 2015 Highlights
Revenues increased to $200 million, up 24.7% over the same period last year and
up 33.7% in constant currency year over year and 1.4% sequentially.  GAAP income
from operations was $22.8 million, an increase of 4.4% compared to $21.9 million
in the first quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP income from operations was $33.4 million,
an increase of $7.1 million, or 27.1%, from $26.3 million in the first quarter
of 2014. Non-GAAP quarterly diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.61, up
29.8% from $0.47 in the first quarter of 2014. Quarterly diluted EPS on a GAAP
basis was $0.29, down from $0.35 in the year-ago quarter mainly due to non-
operating foreign exchange losses.
EPAM reported cash from operations of $6.9 million in the first quarter of
2015, a decrease of $9.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2014.
"We are pleased with our strong financial results for the first quarter of
2015. Our revenue growth is on target with our projections and we continue to
see broad-based gains across multiple dimensions of our business.  Despite the
currency headwinds, we are maintaining our market momentum and remain focused on
further differentiating our capabilities and enhancing our offerings." said
Arkadiy Dobkin, CEO and President of EPAM.
Full Year and Second Quarter 2015 Outlook
Based on current conditions, EPAM expects year-over-year revenue growth to be
between 21% and 23%. Non-GAAP net income growth for 2015 is expected to be in




the range of 20% to 22% year-over-year, with an effective tax rate of
approximately 20%. The full year weighted average share count is expected to be
approximately 51 million diluted shares outstanding.
For the second quarter of 2015, EPAM expects revenues between $213 million and
$215 million, representing a growth rate of 22% to 23% over second quarter 2014
revenues. Second quarter 2015 non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the
range of $0.62 to $0.64 based on an estimated second quarter 2015 weighted
average of 51.2 million diluted shares. GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in
the range of $0.30 to $0.32.

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, communicated 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 expense, write-off and recovery,
amortization of purchased intangible assets, goodwill impairment, legal
settlement, foreign exchange gains and losses, and acquisition-related costs.
Because EPAM's reported non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated according
to 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 according to GAAP.

Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the accuracy of which are necessarily subject to

those expressed or implied include general economic conditions and the factors
