(1)
|
Diluted earnings per share assumes the redemption of all Accenture SCA Class I common shares owned by holders of noncontrolling interests and the exchange of all Accenture Canada Holdings Inc. exchangeable shares for Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis. The income effect does not take into account “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests — other,” since those shares are not redeemable or exchangeable for Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares.
|
|
(2)
|
Diluted weighted average Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares and earnings per share amounts for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2012 have been restated to reflect the impact of the issuance of additional restricted share units to holders of restricted share units in connection with the payments of cash dividends during fiscal 2013. This did not result in a change to previously reported Diluted earnings per share.

•
|
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by volatile, negative or uncertain economic conditions and the effects of these conditions on our clients’ businesses and levels of business activity.
|
|
•
|
Our business depends on generating and maintaining ongoing, profitable client demand for our services and solutions, and a significant reduction in such demand could materially affect our results of operations.
|
|
•
|
If we are unable to keep our supply of skills and resources in balance with client demand around the world and attract and retain professionals with strong leadership skills, our business, the utilization rate of our professionals and our results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
|
|
•
|
The markets in which we compete are highly competitive, and we might not be able to compete effectively.
|
|
•
|
We could have liability or our reputation could be damaged if we fail to protect client and/or Accenture data or information systems as obligated by law or contract or if our information systems are breached.
|
|
•
|
Our results of operations and ability to grow could be materially negatively affected if we cannot adapt and expand our services and solutions in response to ongoing changes in technology and offerings by new entrants.
|
|
•
|
As a result of our geographically diverse operations and our growth strategy to continue geographic expansion, we are more susceptible to certain risks.
|
|
•
|
Our Global Delivery Network is increasingly concentrated in India and the Philippines, which may expose us to operational risks.
|
|
•
|
Our results of operations could materially suffer if we are not able to obtain sufficient pricing to enable us to meet our profitability expectations.
|
|
•
|
If our pricing estimates do not accurately anticipate the cost, risk and complexity of performing our work or third parties upon whom we rely do not meet their commitments, then our contracts could have delivery inefficiencies and be unprofitable.
|
|
•
|
Our work with government clients exposes us to additional risks inherent in the government contracting environment.
|
|
•
|
Our business could be materially adversely affected if we incur legal liability in connection with providing our services and solutions.
|
|
•
|
Our results of operations could be materially adversely affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
|
|
•
|
Our alliance relationships may not be successful or may change, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
|
|
•
|
Outsourcing services and the continued expansion of our other services and solutions into new areas subject us to different operational risks than our consulting and systems integration services.
|
|
•
|
Our services or solutions could infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others or we might lose our ability to utilize the intellectual property of others.
|
|
•
|
We have only a limited ability to protect our intellectual property rights, which are important to our success.
|
|
•
|
Our ability to attract and retain business and employees may depend on our reputation in the marketplace.
|
|
•
|
We might not be successful at identifying, acquiring or integrating businesses or entering into joint ventures.
|
|
•
|
Our profitability could suffer if our cost-management strategies are unsuccessful, and we may not be able to improve our profitability through improvements to cost-management to the degree we have done in the past.
|
|
•
|
Many of our contracts include payments that link some of our fees to the attainment of performance or business targets and/or require us to meet specific service levels. This could increase the variability of our revenues and impact our margins.
|
|
•
|
Changes in our level of taxes, and audits, investigations and tax proceedings, or changes in our treatment as an Irish company, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
|
|
•
|
If we are unable to manage the organizational challenges associated with our size, we might be unable to achieve our business objectives.
|
|
•
|
If we are unable to collect our receivables or unbilled services, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.
|
|
•
|
Our share price and results of operations could fluctuate and be difficult to predict.
|
|
•
|
Our results of operations and share price could be adversely affected if we are unable to maintain effective internal controls.
|
|
•
|
We are incorporated in Ireland and a significant portion of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it might not be possible for shareholders to enforce civil liability provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the United States. We may also be subject to criticism and negative publicity related to our incorporation in Ireland.
|
|
•
|
Irish law differs from the laws in effect in the United States and might afford less protection to shareholders.
|
|
•
|
We might be unable to access additional capital on favorable terms or at all. If we raise equity capital, it may dilute our shareholders’ ownership interest in us.

Communications, Media & Technology net revenues decreased
3%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues declined modestly, due to a significant decline in Electronics & High Tech in EMEA, principally due to an expected year-over-year revenue decline from one contract. The revenue decline on this contract is expected to continue to impact outsourcing revenue growth in the near term. In addition, outsourcing revenues decreased in Electronics & High Tech in Asia Pacific. These declines were partially offset by strong growth in Americas across all industry groups. Consulting revenues declined slightly, due to Media & Entertainment and Communications in Americas and Electronics & High Tech in Asia Pacific and EMEA. These declines were partially offset by strong growth in Communications in EMEA and Electronics & High Tech in Americas. Some of our clients continued to reduce and/or defer their investment in consulting, which had a negative impact on our consulting revenues during the third quarter of fiscal 2013. We expect these trends will continue to impact our net revenue growth in the near term.
|
|
•
|
Financial Services net revenues increased
8%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected very strong growth, driven by all industry groups in Americas and Banking in EMEA. Consulting revenues reflected slight growth, driven by growth in Insurance in Asia Pacific and Americas and Capital Markets in EMEA. These increases were partially offset by declines in Insurance in EMEA and Banking in EMEA and Americas. Changes in the banking and capital markets industries continue to influence the business needs of our clients. This is resulting in higher current demand for outsourcing services, including transformational projects, and lower demand for short-term consulting services.
|
|
•
|
Health & Public Service net revenues increased
11%
in local currency. Consulting revenues reflected strong growth, led by Public Service in Americas and Asia Pacific and Health in Americas and EMEA. This growth was partially offset by declines in Public Service in EMEA and Health in Asia Pacific. Outsourcing revenues also reflected strong growth, led by Health in Americas and Asia Pacific, and Public Service in Americas.
|
|
•
|
Products net revenues increased
4%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected strong growth, driven by growth across all geographic regions and industry groups, led by Life Sciences, Retail and Industrial Equipment. Consulting revenues reflected a modest decline, due to declines in Americas in Consumer Goods & Services and Retail, Asia Pacific across most industry groups and EMEA in Retail. These decreases were partially offset by growth in EMEA in Consumer Goods & Services and Life Sciences, and Americas in Industrial Equipment. Some of our clients are reducing and/or deferring their level of consulting investments, particularly short-term projects. This had a higher than expected negative impact on our consulting revenues during the third quarter of fiscal 2013. In addition, several large systems integration projects have ended or have transitioned to smaller phases. We expect to continue to experience higher demand for outsourcing services, including transformational projects, and a lower demand for short-term consulting services in the near term.
|
|
•
|
Resources net revenues decreased
3%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues were flat, as growth in Utilities and Energy in Asia Pacific and all industry groups in EMEA, was offset by declines in all industry groups in Americas. Consulting revenues reflected a modest decline, as significant growth in Chemicals in Americas was more than offset by declines in Natural Resources in Asia Pacific and Americas, Utilities in EMEA and Energy in Americas. Some of our clients, primarily in Natural Resources and Utilities, reduced their level of consulting investments and demand for our outsourcing services continued to moderate. These trends had a higher than expected negative impact on our revenues during the third quarter of fiscal 2013, particularly in Brazil. In addition, several large systems integration projects have ended or have transitioned to smaller phases. We expect Resources year-over-year net revenue growth to continue to decline slightly in the near term.
|
|
•
|
Americas net revenues increased
8%
in local currency, driven by growth in the United States, partially offset by a decline in Brazil.
|
|
•
|
EMEA net revenues decreased
1%
in local currency. We experienced a significant decline in Finland, principally due to an expected year-over-year decline from one contract in Communications, Media & Technology, as well as declines in Spain, Sweden and Norway. These declines were partially offset by growth in most countries across the remainder of the region, led by Switzerland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany, South Africa and Italy.
|
|
•
|
Asia Pacific net revenues were flat in local currency, as growth in China and India was offset by declines in Australia and Japan.

Communications, Media & Technology net revenues decreased
3%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected slight growth, driven by growth in Americas across all industry groups and Media & Entertainment in EMEA, partially offset by a significant decline in Electronics & High Tech in EMEA, principally due to an expected year-over-year revenue decline from one contract. The revenue decline on this contract is expected to continue to impact outsourcing revenue growth in the near term. In addition, outsourcing revenue growth was impacted by a decline in Electronics & High Tech in Asia Pacific. Consulting revenues decreased, due to declines in Communications and Media & Entertainment in Americas and Electronics & High Tech in EMEA and Asia Pacific, partially offset by strong growth in Electronics & High Tech in Americas. Some of our clients continued to reduce and/or defer their investment in consulting, which had a negative impact on our consulting revenues during the nine months ended May 31, 2013. We expect these trends will continue to impact our net revenue growth in the near term.

Financial Services net revenues increased
9%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected very strong growth, driven by all industry groups in Americas and Banking in EMEA, including the impact of an acquisition in Banking during fiscal 2012. Consulting revenues reflected slight growth, with significant growth in Insurance in Americas, all industry groups in Asia Pacific and Capital Markets in EMEA. These increases were partially offset by declines in Banking in EMEA and Americas and Insurance in EMEA. Changes in the banking and capital markets industries continue to influence the business needs of our clients. This is resulting in higher current demand for outsourcing services, including transformational projects, and lower demand for short-term consulting services.

Health & Public Service net revenues increased
12%
in local currency. Consulting revenues reflected strong growth, led by Public Service in Asia Pacific and Americas and Health in Americas and EMEA. This growth was partially offset by a decline in Public Service in EMEA and Health in Asia Pacific. Outsourcing revenues also reflected strong growth, led by Health in Americas and Asia Pacific, and Public Service in Americas.

•
|
Products net revenues increased
5%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected very strong growth, driven by growth across all geographic regions and industry groups, led by Retail, Life Sciences and Industrial Equipment. Consulting revenues reflected a slight decline, due to declines in Asia Pacific across most industry groups, EMEA and Americas in Retail, and Americas in Consumer Goods & Services. These decreases were partially offset by growth in EMEA and Americas in Life Sciences and Americas in Industrial Equipment. Some of our clients are reducing and/or deferring their level of consulting investments, particularly short-term projects. In addition, several large systems integration projects have ended or have transitioned to smaller phases. We expect to continue to experience higher demand for outsourcing services, including transformational projects, and a lower demand for short-term consulting services in the near term.

|
•
|
Resources net revenues decreased
1%
in local currency. Outsourcing revenues reflected modest growth, driven by all industry groups in EMEA and Utilities in Asia Pacific, partially offset by a decline in Utilities in Americas. Consulting revenues reflected a modest decline, as growth in Chemicals in Americas and Natural Resources in EMEA were more than offset by declines in Natural Resources in Americas and Asia Pacific, Utilities in EMEA and Energy in Americas. Some of our clients, primarily in Natural Resources and Utilities, reduced their level of consulting investments. In addition, several large systems integration projects have ended or have transitioned to smaller phases and demand for our outsourcing services has moderated. We expect Resources year-over-year net revenue growth to continue to decline slightly in the near term.

Americas net revenues increased
9%
in local currency, driven by growth in the United States.

•
|
EMEA net revenues decreased
1%
in local currency. We experienced a significant decline in Finland, principally due to an expected year-over-year decline from one contract in Communications, Media & Technology, as well as declines in Spain and Sweden. These declines were partially offset by growth in South Africa, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Ireland and Italy.
