NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(currency and share amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
NOTE 1—BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Background
Concentrix Corporation (“Concentrix” or the “Company”), is a global technology and services leader that powers its clients’ brand experiences and digital operations. The Company designs, builds, and runs fully integrated, end-to-end solutions, including customer experience (“CX”) process optimization, technology innovation and design engineering, front- and back-office automation, analytics and business transformation services to clients in five primary industry verticals: technology and consumer electronics; retail, travel and e-commerce; communications and media; banking, financial services and insurance; and healthcare.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The amounts as of November 30, 2024 have been derived from the Company’s annual audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
On September 25, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition (the “Webhelp Combination”) of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Marnix Lux SA (“Webhelp”), from the holders thereof (the “Sellers”). The Webhelp Combination was funded by proceeds from the Company’s offering and sale of senior notes in August 2023, term loan borrowings under the Company’s senior credit facility, the issuance of a promissory note by Concentrix Corporation to certain Sellers (the “Sellers’ Note”), the issuance of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Concentrix Corporation, and cash on hand. See Note 7—Borrowings for a further discussion of the Company’s senior notes, term loan, senior credit facility, and the Sellers’ Note.
NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements are discussed below.
Concentration of credit risk
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, no client accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenue.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, no client comprised more than 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance.
Accounts receivable factoring
The Company has factoring programs with certain clients to sell accounts receivable to financial institutions under non-recourse agreements in exchange for cash proceeds. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company sold approximately $310,000 and $617,000 of accounts receivable under its factoring programs, respectively. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, the Company sold approximately $337,000 and $701,000 of accounts receivable under its factoring programs, respectively. As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $142,000 and $162,000 outstanding under its factoring programs. In some instances, the Company may continue to service the transferred receivables after factoring has occurred. However, any servicing of the trade receivable does not constitute significant continuing involvement.
Accounting pronouncements recently issued
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2023-07, which enhances the disclosures required for reportable segments in annual and interim consolidated financial statements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning with the fiscal year ending November 30, 2025 and for interim reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this update will have on its disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table and disaggregated information related to income taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for the Company for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this update will have on its disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes to the financial statements, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning with the fiscal year ending November 30, 2028 and for interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2029. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this update will have on its disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
No other new accounting pronouncements recently adopted or issued had or are expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3—SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION:
The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance-based restricted stock units based on estimated fair values.
In January 2025, the Company granted 176 restricted stock units and 489 performance-based restricted stock units under the Concentrix Corporation Amended and Restated 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2020 Plan”), which included annual awards to the Company’s senior executive team. The restricted stock units had a grant date weighted average fair value of $52.54 per share and vest ratably over a service period of three years. 170 of the performance-based restricted stock units under the 2020 Plan will vest, if at all, upon the achievement of certain financial targets during the three-year period ending November 30, 2027. These performance-based restricted stock units had a grant date weighted average fair value of $48.94 per share. 319 of the performance-based restricted stock units under the 2020 Plan will vest, if at all, upon the achievement of certain total shareholder return goals during the three-year period ending January 25, 2028. These performance-based restricted stock units are market condition awards and had a grant date weighted average fair value of $41.28 per share.
The Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $26,862 and $21,618 for the three months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense of
$53,462 and $43,264 for the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Share-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Refer to Note 5—Derivative Instruments for the location of gains and losses on cash flow hedges reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) to the consolidated statements of operations. Reclassifications of amortization of actuarial (gains) losses of defined benefit plans is recorded in “Other expense (income), net” in the consolidated statement of operations.
NOTE 5—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to foreign currency risk and credit risk. The Company enters into transactions, and owns monetary assets and liabilities, that are denominated in currencies other than the legal entity’s functional currency. The Company may enter into forward contracts, option contracts, or other derivative instruments to offset a portion of the risk on expected future cash flows, earnings, net investments in certain non-U.S. legal entities and certain existing assets and liabilities. However, the Company may choose not to hedge certain exposures for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, accounting considerations and the economic cost of hedging particular exposures. There can be no assurance the hedges will offset more than a portion of the financial impact resulting from movements in foreign currency exchange or interest rates. Generally, the Company does not use derivative instruments to cover equity risk and credit risk. The Company’s hedging program is not used for trading or speculative purposes.
All derivatives are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations, or as a component of AOCI in the consolidated balance sheets, as discussed below.
Cash Flow Hedges
To mitigate the impact on gross margins from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, certain of the Company’s legal entities with functional currencies that are not U.S. dollars may hedge a portion of forecasted revenue or costs not denominated in the entities’ functional currencies. These instruments mature at various dates through May 2027. Gains and losses on cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Deferred gains and losses associated with cash flow hedges of foreign currency revenue are recognized as a component of “Revenue” in the same period as the related revenue is recognized, and deferred gains and losses related to cash flow hedges of foreign currency costs are recognized as a component of “Cost of revenue” or “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the same period as the related costs are recognized. Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges must be de-designated as hedges when it is probable the forecasted
hedged transaction will not occur in the initially identified time period or within a subsequent two-month time period. Deferred gains and losses in AOCI associated with such derivative instruments are reclassified into earnings in the period of de-designation. Any subsequent changes in fair value of such derivative instruments are recorded in earnings unless they are re-designated as hedges of other transactions.
Non-Designated Derivatives
The Company uses short-term forward contracts to offset the foreign exchange risk of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the Company’s legal entities that own the assets or liabilities. These contracts, which are not designated as hedging instruments, mature or settle within twelve months. Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in the financial statement line item to which the derivative relates.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps
In connection with the closing of the Webhelp Combination, the Company entered into cross-currency swap arrangements with certain financial institutions for a total notional amount of $500,000 of the Company’s senior notes. In addition to aligning the currency of a portion of the Company’s interest payments to the Company’s euro-denominated cash flows, the arrangements, together with intercompany loans and additional intercompany cross-currency interest rate swap arrangements described below, effectively converted $250,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.650% Senior Notes due 2026 and $250,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.660% Senior Notes due 2028 into synthetic fixed euro-based debt at weighted average interest rates of 5.12% and 5.18%, respectively.
Concurrent with entering into the cross-currency interest rate swaps with certain financial institutions, Marnix SAS, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Concentrix, entered into corresponding U.S. dollar denominated intercompany loan agreements with certain other subsidiaries of Concentrix with identical terms and notional amounts as the underlying $500,000 U.S. dollar denominated senior notes, with reciprocal cross-currency interest rate swaps.
The cross-currency interest rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges.
Fair Values of Derivative Instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets
The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are disclosed in Note 6—Fair Value Measurements and summarized in the table below: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Value as of |

Other current assets and other assets | | 20,717 | | | 578 | |
Other accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities | | 821 | | | 22,155 | |
Volume of activity
The notional amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts represent the gross amounts of foreign currency, including, principally, the Philippine peso and the Indian rupee, that will be bought or sold at maturity. The notional amounts for outstanding derivative instruments provide one measure of the transaction volume outstanding and do not represent the amount of the Company’s exposure to credit or market loss. The Company’s exposure to credit loss and market risk will vary over time as currency exchange rates change.
The Effect of Derivative Instruments on AOCI and the Consolidated Statements of Operations
The following table shows the location of gains and losses, before taxes, of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges and not designated as hedging instruments in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and the consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented:

(1) The gains and losses largely offset the currency gains and losses that resulted from changes in the assets and liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies.
There were no material gain or loss amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness. Existing net gains in AOCI that are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the normal course of business within the next twelve months are $14,162.
Offsetting of Derivatives
In the consolidated balance sheets, the Company does not offset derivative assets against liabilities in master netting arrangements.
Credit exposure for derivative financial instruments is limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties’ obligations under the contracts exceed the Company’s obligations to the counterparties. The Company manages the potential risk of credit losses by selecting counterparties from a limited group of financial institutions with high credit standing.
NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:
The Company’s fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
The following table summarizes the valuation of the Company’s investments and financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| As of May 31, 2025 | | As of November 30, 2024 |

Carrying amount | 2,137,524 | | | — | | | — | | | — | | | 2,135,576 | | | — | | | — | | | — | |
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on hand, including bank deposits, money market fund securities and term deposits with maturity periods of three months or less. The carrying values of cash equivalents approximate fair value since they are near their maturity. Restricted cash balances relate primarily to funds held for clients. The carrying values of restricted cash balances approximate fair value since they are highly liquid and short-term in nature. The Company does not adjust the quoted market price for such financial instruments. The fair values of forward exchange contracts are measured based on the foreign currency spot rates, forward rates, and volatility. Fair values of long-term foreign currency exchange contracts are measured using valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and are valued by reference to similar financial instruments, adjusted for terms specific to the contracts. The fair values of the cross-currency interest rate swaps are determined using a market approach that is based on observable inputs other than quoted market prices, including contract terms, interest rates, currency rates, and other market factors. The estimated fair value of the acquisition contingent consideration entered into in connection with the Webhelp Combination is determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. The inputs include the closing price of Concentrix common stock as of the reporting period end date, Concentrix-specific historical equity volatility, and the risk-free rate.
The effect of nonperformance risk on the fair value of derivative instruments was not material as of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024.
The carrying values of term deposits with maturities less than one year, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities and interest rates that are variable in nature. The carrying values of the outstanding balance on the term loan under the Company’s senior credit facility and the outstanding balance on the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”) approximate their fair values since they bear interest rates that are similar to existing market rates. The fair values of the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, and 2033 Notes (as defined in Note 7) are based on quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company does not adjust the quoted market prices for such financial instruments.
During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no transfers between the fair value measurement category levels.

Senior Notes
On August 2, 2023, the Company issued and sold (i) $800,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.650% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), (ii) $800,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.600% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and (iii) $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.850% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes” and, together with the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were sold in a registered public offering pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3, which became effective upon filing, and a Prospectus Supplement dated July 19, 2023, to a Prospectus dated July 17, 2023.
The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture, dated as of August 2, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), between Concentrix and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2026 Notes, a second supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2028 Notes, and a third supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2033 Notes (such supplemental indentures, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains customary covenants and restrictions, including covenants that limit Concentrix Corporation’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to create or incur liens on shares of stock of certain subsidiaries or on principal properties, engage in sale/leaseback transactions or, with respect to
Concentrix Corporation, consolidate or merge with, or sell or lease substantially all its assets to, another person. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default.
Restated Credit Agreement
On April 11, 2025, Concentrix Corporation entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as the administrative agent, the L/C issuer and the swing line lender, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the existing administrative agent, the existing L/C issuer and the existing swing line lender, to amend and restate the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 21, 2023 (the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as so amended and restated by the Amendment Agreement, the “Restated Credit Agreement”). The Amendment Agreement appoints Bank of America, N.A. as the Administrative Agent under the Restated Credit Agreement, as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
The Restated Credit Agreement provides for (i) an unsecured three-year term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $750,000 (the “New Term Loan Facility”), (ii) an unsecured three-year delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250,000 (the “3-Year DD Term Loan Facility”), (iii) an unsecured five-year delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500,000 (the “5-Year DD Term Loan Facility”, and together with the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”), and (iv) a senior unsecured revolving credit facility not to exceed an aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Restated Credit Agreement also provides for the conversion and continuation of loans in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000 under the Company’s existing unsecured term loan facility pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement into loans under an unsecured term loan facility with the same maturity as such converted and continued loans (the “Continued Term Loan Facility”). Aggregate borrowing capacity under the Restated Credit Agreement may be increased by up to an additional $500,000 by increasing the amount of the revolving credit facility commitments or by incurring additional term loans, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Restated Credit Agreement, including the receipt of additional commitments for such increase(s).
The maturity date of the New Term Loan Facility and the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility is September 30, 2028. The maturity date of the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility is April 11, 2030, subject, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, to two one-year extensions upon Concentrix’ prior notice to the lenders and the agreement of the lenders to extend such maturity date. The maturity date of the Continued Term Loan Facility remains December 27, 2026.
The outstanding principal amount of each of the New Term Loan Facility and the Delayed Draw Term Loans is payable in quarterly installments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the existing principal balance of the applicable term loan, commencing on September 30, 2025, in the case of the New Term Loan Facility, and on the last day of the second full calendar quarter after the Delayed Draw Term Loans are borrowed, in the case of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, with the outstanding principal amount of the New Term Loan Facility, the Delayed Draw Term Loans, and the Continued Term Loan Facility due in full on the applicable maturity date.
Borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of SOFR rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (but not less than 0.00%), plus an applicable margin, based on the credit ratings of Concentrix’ senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money plus a credit spread adjustment to the SOFR rate of 0.10%. The applicable margin ranges from 1.000% to 1.500% for the New Term Loan Facility and the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, 1.100% to 1.600% for the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility, 1.125% to 2.000% for the Continued Term Loan Facility, and 0.875% to 1.500% for the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement that are base rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate (but not less than 1.0%) equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the “prime rate” (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) in effect on such day, (B) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) in effect on such day plus 0.500%, and (C) the adjusted one-month term SOFR rate plus 1.0% per annum, plus (ii) an applicable margin, based on the credit ratings of Concentrix’ senior unsecured non-credit enhanced lon
g-term indebtedness for borrowed money. The applicable margin ranges from 0.000% to 0.500% for the New Term Loan Facility, the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, and the Revolving Credit Facility, 0.100% to 0.600% for the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility, and 0.125% to 1.000% for the Continued Term Loan Facility.
The Restated Credit Agreement contains certain loan covenants that are customary for credit facilities of this type and that restrict the ability of Concentrix and its subsidiaries to take certain actions, including the creation of liens, mergers, consolidations or other fundamental changes to the nature of their business, and, solely with respect to subsidiaries of Concentrix, incurrence of indebtedness. In addition, the Restated Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require Concentrix to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter, (i) a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) not to exceed 3.75 to 1.00 (or for certain periods following certain qualified acquisitions, 4.25 to 1.00) and (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) no less than 3.00 to 1.00. The Restated Credit Agreement also contains various customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, and a change of control of Concentrix.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance on the Company’s term loans was $1,350,000 and $1,500,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company voluntarily prepaid $150,000 of the principal balance on the Company’s term loans, without penalty.
None of Concentrix’ subsidiaries guarantees the obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, no amounts were outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
Securitization Facility
On January 14, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the Securitization Facility to increase the commitment of the lenders to provide available borrowings from up to $600,000 to up to $700,000 and extend the termination date of the Securitization Facility from April 24, 2026 to January 14, 2027. For borrowings that are funded by certain lenders through the issuance of commercial paper, the amendment also reduced the spread to the applicable commercial paper rate from 0.80% to 0.75%. Other borrowings bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (subject to a SOFR related adjustment of 0.10%), plus a spread of 0.90%.
Under the Securitization Facility, Concentrix Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Originators”) sell or otherwise transfer all of their accounts receivable to a special purpose bankruptcy-remote subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”) that grants a security interest in the receivables to the lenders in exchange for available borrowings of up to $700,000. The amount received under the Securitization Facility is recorded as debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Borrowing availability under the Securitization Facility may be limited by the Company’s accounts receivable balances, changes in the credit ratings of the clients comprising the receivables, client concentration levels in the receivables, and certain characteristics of the accounts receivable being transferred (including factors tracking performance of the accounts receivable over time).
The Securitization Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio covenant that is consistent with the Restated Credit Agreement and customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, a change in control of Concentrix Corporation, and certain events negatively affecting the overall credit quality of the transferred accounts receivable.
The Borrower’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of the receivables and related security from the Originators and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such receivables and related security to the administrative agent under the Securitization Facility for the benefit of the lenders. The Borrower is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets prior to any assets or value in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s equity holders, and the assets of the Borrower are not available to pay creditors of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Sellers’ Note
On September 25, 2023, as part of the consideration for the Webhelp Combination, Concentrix Corporation issued the Sellers’ Note in the aggregate principal amount of €700,000 to certain Sellers. The stated rate of interest associated with the Sellers’ Note is two percent (2.00%) per annum, which is below the Company’s expected borrowing rate. As a result, the Company discounted the Sellers’ Note by €31,500 using an approximate 4.36% imputed annual interest rate. This discounting resulted in an initial value of €668,500 or $711,830. The discounted value is being amortized into interest expense over the two-year term. All stated principal and accrued interest will be due and payable on September 25, 2025.
The Company currently intends to use the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, when drawn, to repay in full the Sellers’ Note. As a result, the amount outstanding on the Sellers’ Note has been classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2025. The amount outstanding on the Sellers’ Note as of November 30, 2024 was also classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet based on the Company’s ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis.
Covenant compliance
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, Concentrix was in compliance with all covenants for the above arrangements.

NOTE 10—PENSION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PLANS:
The Company has a 401(k) plan in the United States under which eligible employees may contribute up to the maximum amount as provided by law. Employees become eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the first day of the month after their employment date. The Company may make discretionary contributions under the plan. Employees in most of the Company’s non-U.S. legal entities are covered by government mandated defined contribution plans. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, the Company contributed $19,266 and $47,887, respectively, to defined contribution plans. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, the Company contributed $25,516 and $51,632, respectively, to defined contribution plans.
Defined Benefit Plans
For eligible employees in the United States, the Company maintains a frozen defined benefit pension plan (“the cash balance plan”), which includes both a qualified and non-qualified portion. The pension benefit formula for the cash balance plan is determined by a combination of compensation, age-based credits and annual guaranteed interest credits. The qualified portion of the cash balance plan has been funded through contributions made to a trust fund.
The Company maintains funded or unfunded defined benefit pension or retirement plans for certain eligible employees in the Philippines, Malaysia, India, and France. Benefits under these plans are primarily based on years of service and compensation during the years immediately preceding retirement or termination of participation in the plans.
Net benefit costs related to defined benefit plans were $3,827 and $7,710, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, respectively. Net benefit costs related to defined benefit plans were $3,510 and $7,089, during the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, respectively. Service costs are recorded in cost of services and selling, general and administrative expenses while the remaining components of total pension costs are recorded within other expense (income), net in the consolidated statements of operations. On an aggregate basis, the plans were underfunded by $81,702 and $77,942 at May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively.
NOTE 11—INCOME TAXES:
Income taxes consist of current and deferred tax expense resulting from income earned in domestic and international jurisdictions. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024 were impacted by the geographic mix of worldwide income and certain discrete items.
The liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $112,741 and $112,961 at May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively, and is included in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would affect income tax expense if recognized in the consolidated financial statements was $83,517 and $60,512, respectively. This amount includes net interest and penalties of $13,616 and $12,613 for the respective periods. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease between approximately $44,052 and $46,725 in the next twelve months; however, actual developments in this area could differ from those currently expected.

NOTE 13—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
From time to time, the Company receives notices from third parties, including customers and suppliers, seeking indemnification, payment of money, or other actions in connection with claims made against them. Also, from time to time, the Company has been involved in various bankruptcy preference actions where the Company was a supplier to the companies now in bankruptcy. In addition, the Company is subject to various other claims, both asserted and unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company evaluates these claims and records the related liabilities. It is possible that the liabilities ultimately incurred by the Company could differ from the amounts recorded.
The Company does not believe that the above commitments and contingencies will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
NOTE 14—STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY:
Share repurchase program
In September 2021, the Company’s board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500,000 of the outstanding shares of Concentrix common stock from time to time as market and business conditions warrant, including through open market purchases or Rule 10b5-1 trading plans.

Overview and Basis of Presentation
Concentrix is a global technology and services leader that powers our clients’ brand experiences and digital operations. We design, build, and run fully integrated, end-to-end solutions, including customer experience (“CX”) process optimization, technology innovation and design engineering, front- and back-office automation, analytics and business transformation services to clients in five primary industry verticals. Our differentiated portfolio of solutions supports Fortune Global 500 clients across the globe in their efforts to deliver an optimized, consistent brand experience across all channels of communication, including voice, chat, email, generative AI-powered self-service, social media, asynchronous messaging, and custom applications. We strive to deliver exceptional services
globally supported by our deep industry knowledge, technology and security practices, talented people, and digital and analytics expertise.
We generate revenue from performing services that are generally tied to our clients’ products and services. Any shift in business or the size of the market for our clients’ products or services, or any failure of technology or failure of acceptance of our clients’ products or services in the market may impact our business. The staff turnover rate in our business is high, as is the risk of losing experienced team members. High staff turnover rates may increase costs and decrease operating efficiencies and productivity.
Webhelp Combination
On September 25, 2023, we completed our acquisition (the “Webhelp Combination”) of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock (the “Shares”) of Marnix Lux SA, (“Webhelp”), from the holders thereof (the “Sellers”). The purchase consideration for the acquisition of the Shares was valued at approximately $3,774.8 million, net of cash and restricted cash acquired.
Revenue and Cost of Revenue
We generate revenue through the provision of technology and services to our clients pursuant to client contracts. Our client contracts typically consist of a master services agreement, supported in most cases by multiple statements of work, which contain the terms and conditions of each contracted solution. Our client contracts can range from less than one year to over five years in term and are subject to early termination by our clients for any reason, typically with 30 to 90 days’ notice.
Our technology and services are generally characterized by flat unit prices. Approximately 98% of our revenue is recognized as services are performed, based on staffing hours or the number of client customer transactions handled using contractual rates. Remaining revenue from the sale of these solutions are typically recognized as the services are provided over the duration of the contract using contractual rates.
Our cost of revenue consists primarily of personnel costs related to the delivery of our technology and services. The costs of our revenue can be impacted by the mix of client contracts, where we deliver the technology and services, additional lead time for programs to be fully scalable, and transition and initial set-up costs. Our cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue has also fluctuated in the past, based primarily on our ability to achieve economies of scale, the management of our operating expenses, and the timing and costs incurred related to our acquisitions and investments.
For the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 89% and 88%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was generated from our non-U.S. operations, and approximately 55% and 50%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was priced in U.S. dollars. We expect that a significant amount of our revenue will continue to be generated from our non-U.S. operations while being priced in U.S. dollars. We have certain client contracts that are priced in non-U.S. dollar currencies for which a substantial portion of the costs to deliver the services are in other currencies. Accordingly, our revenue may be earned in currencies that are different from the currencies in which we incur corresponding expenses. Fluctuations in the value of currencies, such as the Philippine peso, the Indian rupee, the euro, and the Canadian dollar, against the U.S. dollar or other currencies in which we bill our clients, and inflation in the local economies in which these delivery centers are located, can impact the operating and labor costs in these delivery centers, which can result in reduced profitability. As a result, our revenue growth, costs, and profitability have been impacted, and we expect will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and inflation.
Margins
Our gross margins fluctuate and can be impacted by the mix of client contracts, services provided, shifts in the geography from which our technology and services are delivered, client volume trends, the amount of lead time that is required for programs or services to become fully scaled, and transition and set-up costs. Our operating margin fluctuates based on changes in gross margins as well as overall volume levels, as we are generally able to gain scale efficiencies in our selling, general and administrative costs as our volumes increase.
Economic and Industry Trends
The industry in which we operate is competitive, including on the basis of pricing terms, delivery capabilities, and quality of services. Labor in various markets is also subject to competitive pressures that can result in increased labor costs. These factors subject us to pricing and labor cost pressures that can negatively affect our revenue, gross profit, and operating income.
Our business operates globally in 75 countries across six continents. We have significant concentrations in the Philippines, India, Brazil, the United States, Egypt, Türkiye, Colombia, Malaysia, Morocco, China, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere throughout EMEA, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific. Accordingly, we would be impacted by economic strength or weakness in these geographies and by the strengthening or weakening of local currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
In January 2025, the U.S. government began imposing, or threatening to impose, new or increased tariffs on certain countries, materials, and industries, and in response, certain impacted countries have imposed or threatened various retaliatory tariffs or other trade restrictions on imports from the United States. We cannot predict with certainty the effect of future changes in global trade policy and tariffs on our clients’ operations and demand for our services in future periods.
Seasonality
Our revenue and margins fluctuate with the underlying trends in our clients’ businesses and trends in the level of consumer activity. As a result, our revenue and margins are typically higher in the fourth fiscal quarter of the year than in any other fiscal quarter.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024.

Our provision for income taxes decreased for the three months ended May 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended May 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in income before taxes and a decrease in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2025 decreased compared to the three months ended May 31, 2024, primarily due to certain discrete items and a change in the mix of income earned in different tax jurisdictions between periods.
Our provision for income taxes decreased for the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to the six months ended May 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in income before taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended May 31, 2025 increased compared to the six months ended May 31, 2024, primarily due to a change in the mix of income earned in different tax jurisdictions between periods.
Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial information, including:
•Non-GAAP operating income, which is operating income, adjusted to exclude acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, step-up depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation.
•Non-GAAP operating margin, which is non-GAAP operating income, as defined above, divided by revenue.
•Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, which is non-GAAP operating income, as defined above, plus depreciation (exclusive of step-up depreciation).
•Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, divided by revenue.
•Non-GAAP net income, which is net income excluding the tax effected impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, step-up depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, certain debt costs, imputed interest related to the Sellers’ Note, certain legal settlement costs, change in acquisition contingent consideration and foreign currency losses (gains), net. Non-GAAP net income also excludes the income tax effect of certain tax law changes.
•Free cash flow, which is cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, and adjusted free cash flow, which is free cash flow excluding the effect of changes in the outstanding factoring balance. We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful measure of cash flows since capital expenditures are a necessary component of ongoing operations. We believe that adjusted free cash flow is a meaningful measure of cash flows because it removes the effect of factoring which changes the timing of the receipt of cash for certain receivables. However, free cash flow and adjusted cash flow have limitations because they do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow do not incorporate payments for business acquisitions.
•Non-GAAP diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”), which is diluted EPS excluding the per share, tax effected impact of acquisition-related and integration expenses, including related restructuring costs, step-up depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, certain debt costs, imputed interest related to the Sellers’ Note, certain legal settlement costs, change in acquisition contingent consideration and foreign currency losses (gains), net. Non-GAAP EPS also excludes the per share income tax effect of certain tax law changes. Non-GAAP EPS excludes net income attributable to participating securities, and the per share, tax-effected impact of adjustments to net income described above that are attributable to common shareholders.
We believe that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand our base operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods and for planning and forecasting in future periods, primarily because management typically monitors the business adjusted for these items in addition to GAAP results. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in some cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude amortization of intangible assets. Our acquisition activities have resulted in the recognition of intangible assets, which consist primarily of customer relationships, technology, and trade names. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are tested for impairment when events indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The amortization of intangible assets is reflected in our statements of operations. Although intangible assets contribute to our revenue generation, the amortization of intangible assets does not directly relate to the services performed for our clients. Additionally, intangible asset amortization expense typically fluctuates based on the size and timing of our acquisition activity. Accordingly, we believe excluding the amortization of intangible assets, along with the other non-GAAP adjustments, which neither relate to the ordinary course of our business nor reflect our underlying business performance, enhances our and our investors’ ability to compare our past financial performance with its current performance and to analyze underlying business performance and trends. Intangible asset amortization excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure represents the entire amount recorded within our GAAP financial statements, and the revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure. Intangible asset amortization is excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure because the amortization, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired, or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised. These non-GAAP financial measures also exclude share-based compensation expense. Given the subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use when calculating share-based compensation expense, management believes this additional information allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of our peers. As these non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with
GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

(1) For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, acquisition-related and integration expenses, including restructuring costs, primarily included integration costs associated with the Company’s combination with Webhelp. These costs primarily include severance and employee-related costs, costs associated with facilities consolidation, including lease terminations to integrate the businesses, and information technology system consolidation costs.
(2) For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, debt costs included debt extinguishment costs associated with our Restated Credit Agreement and our voluntary prepayment of a portion of our outstanding term loans.
(3) For the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, legal settlement costs consist of amounts incurred to settle certain litigation arising outside of the ordinary course of business.
(4) Foreign currency losses (gains), net are included in other expense (income), net and primarily consist of gains and losses recognized on the revaluation and settlement of foreign currency transactions and realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
(5) The tax effect of taxable and deductible non-GAAP adjustments was calculated using the tax-deductible portion of the expenses and applying the entity specific, statutory tax rates applicable to each item during the respective periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary uses of cash are working capital, capital expenditures to expand our delivery footprint and enhance our technology solutions, debt repayments, acquisitions, and acquisition-related and integration expenses, including in connection with the Webhelp Combination. Our financing needs for these uses of cash have been a combination of operating cash flows and third-party debt arrangements. Our working capital needs are primarily to finance accounts receivable. When our revenue is increasing, our net investment in working capital typically increases. Conversely, when revenue is decreasing, our net investment in working capital typically decreases. To increase our market share and better serve our clients, we may further expand our operations through investments or acquisitions. We expect that such expansion would require an initial investment in working capital, personnel, facilities, and operations. These investments or acquisitions would likely be funded primarily by our existing cash and cash equivalents, available liquidity, including capacity on our debt arrangements, or the issuance of securities. We funded the Webhelp Combination through (i) proceeds from our August 2023 offering and sale of senior notes, (ii) term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility, and (iii) cash on hand.
In September 2021, considering our strong free cash flow, low leverage, and adequate liquidity to support capital return to stockholders while maintaining flexibility to pursue acquisitions, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program. Under the share repurchase program, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our common stock from time to time as market and business conditions warrant, including through open market purchases or Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In January 2025, our board of directors extended our share repurchase program by authorizing an increase of the amount remaining for share repurchases under the existing share repurchase authorization to $600 million. The share repurchase program has no termination date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, we repurchased 923,899 and 1,463,701 shares, respectively, of our common stock under the share repurchase program for approximately $45.3 million and $71.2 million, respectively, in the aggregate. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2024, we repurchased 662,580 and 899,685 shares, respectively, of our common stock under the share repurchase program for approximately $40.6 and $62.3 million, respectively, in the aggregate. At May 31, 2025, approximately $537.0 million remained available for share repurchases under the existing authorization from our board of directors.
During June 2025, we repurchased 221,842 shares of our common stock under the share repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $12.2 million.
During fiscal years 2025 and 2024, we paid the following dividends per share approved by our board of directors:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Announcement Date | Record Date | Per Share Dividend Amount | Payment Date |
January 24, 2024 | February 5, 2024 | $0.3025 | February 15, 2024 |
March 26, 2024 | April 26, 2024 | $0.3025 | May 7, 2024 |
June 26, 2024 | July 26, 2024 | $0.3025 | August 6, 2024 |
September 25, 2024 | October 25, 2024 | $0.33275 | November 5, 2024 |
January 15, 2025 | January 31, 2025 | $0.33275 | February 11, 2025 |
March 26, 2025 | April 25, 2025 | $0.33275 | May 6, 2025 |
On June 26, 2025, we announced a cash dividend of $0.33275 per share to stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 25, 2025, payable on August 5, 2025.
We expect that future cash dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis. However, any decision to pay future cash dividends will be subject to our board of directors’ approval, and will depend on many factors, such as our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, debt service obligations, restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, industry practice, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. Our ability to pay dividends will depend on our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations and on our access to the capital markets. We cannot guarantee that we will continue to pay a dividend in the future.
Debt Arrangements
Senior Notes
On August 2, 2023, we issued and sold (i) $800 million aggregate principal amount of 6.650% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), (ii) $800 million aggregate principal amount of 6.600% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and (iii) $550 million aggregate principal amount of 6.850% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes”) and, together with the 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were sold in a registered public offering pursuant to our Registration Statement on Form S-3, which became effective upon filing, and a Prospectus Supplement dated July 19, 2023, to a Prospectus dated July 17, 2023.
The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture, dated as of August 2, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), between Concentrix and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2026 Notes, a second supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2028 Notes, and a third supplemental indenture dated as of August 2, 2023 between Concentrix and the Trustee relating to the 2033 Notes (such supplemental indentures, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Indenture contains customary covenants and restrictions, including covenants that limit Concentrix Corporation’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to create or incur liens on shares of stock of certain subsidiaries or on principal properties, engage in sale/leaseback transactions or, with respect to Concentrix Corporation, consolidate or merge with, or sell or lease substantially all its assets to, another person. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default.
In connection with the closing of the Webhelp Combination, we entered into cross-currency swap arrangements with certain financial institutions for a total notional amount of $500 million of the Senior Notes. In addition to aligning the currency of a portion of our interest payments to our euro-denominated cash flows, the arrangements effectively converted $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes and $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes into synthetic fixed euro-based debt at weighted average interest rates of 5.12% and 5.18%, respectively.
Concurrent with entering into the cross-currency interest rate swaps with certain financial institutions, Marnix SAS, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Concentrix Corporation, entered into corresponding U.S. dollar denominated intercompany loan agreements with certain other subsidiaries of Concentrix with identical terms and notional amounts as the underlying $500 million U.S. dollar denominated senior notes, with reciprocal cross-currency interest rate swaps.
Restated Credit Agreement
On April 11, 2025, we entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as the administrative agent, the L/C issuer and the swing line lender, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the existing administrative agent, the existing L/C issuer and the existing swing line lender, to amend and restate the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 21, 2023 (the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as so amended and restated by the Amendment Agreement, the “Restated Credit Agreement”). The Amendment Agreement appoints Bank of America, N.A. as the Administrative Agent under the Restated Credit Agreement, as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
The Restated Credit Agreement provides for (i) an unsecured three-year term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $750 million (the “New Term Loan Facility”), (ii) an unsecured three-year delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250 million (the “3-Year DD Term Loan Facility”), (iii) an unsecured five-year delayed draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500 million (the “5-Year DD Term Loan Facility”, and together with the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”), and (iv) a senior unsecured revolving credit facility not to exceed an aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Restated Credit Agreement also provides for the conversion and continuation of loans in an aggregate principal amount of $750 million under our existing unsecured term loan facility pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement into loans under an unsecured term loan facility with the same maturity as such converted and continued loans (the “Continued Term Loan Facility”). Aggregate borrowing capacity under the Restated Credit Agreement may be increased by up to an additional $500 million by increasing the amount of the revolving credit facility commitments or by incurring additional term loans, in each case subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Restated Credit Agreement, including the receipt of additional commitments for such increase(s).
The maturity date of the New Term Loan Facility and the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility is September 30, 2028. The maturity date of the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility is April 11, 2030, subject, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, to two one-year extensions upon our prior notice to the lenders and the agreement of the lenders to extend such maturity date. The maturity date of the Continued Term Loan Facility remains December 27, 2026.
The outstanding principal amount of each of the New Term Loan Facility and the Delayed Draw Term Loans is payable in quarterly installments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the existing principal balance of the applicable term loan, commencing on September 30, 2025, in the case of the New Term Loan Facility, and on the last day of the second full calendar quarter after the Delayed Draw Term Loans are borrowed, in the case of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, with the outstanding principal amount of the New Term Loan Facility, the Delayed Draw Term Loans, and the Continued Term Loan Facility due in full on the applicable maturity date.
Borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement bear interest, in the case of SOFR rate loans, at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (but not less than 0.0%), plus an applicable margin, based on the credit ratings of Concentrix’ senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money plus a credit spread adjustment to the SOFR rate of 0.10%. The applicable margin ranges from 1.000% to 1.500% for the New Term Loan Facility and the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, 1.100% to 1.600% for the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility, 1.125% to 2.000% for the Continued Term Loan Facility, and 0.875% to 1.500% for the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement that are base rate loans bear interest at a per annum rate (but not less than 1.0%) equal to (i) the greatest of (A) the “prime rate” (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) in effect on such day, (B) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) in effect on such day plus 0.500%, and (C) the adjusted one-month term SOFR rate plus 1.0% per annum, plus (ii) an applicable margin, based on the credit ratings of Concentrix’ senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term indebtedness for borrowed money. The applicable margin ranges from 0.000% to 0.500% for the New Term Loan Facility, the 3-Year DD Term Loan Facility, and the Revolving Credit Facility, 0.100% to 0.600% for the 5-Year DD Term Loan Facility, and 0.125% to 1.000% for the Continued Term Loan Facility.
The Restated Credit Agreement contains certain loan covenants that are customary for credit facilities of this type and that restrict the ability of Concentrix and its subsidiaries to take certain actions, including the creation of liens, mergers, consolidations or other fundamental changes to the nature of their business, and, solely with respect to subsidiaries of Concentrix, incurrence of indebtedness. In addition, the Restated Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require Concentrix to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter, (i) a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) not to exceed 3.75 to 1.00 (or for certain periods following certain qualified acquisitions, 4.25 to 1.00) and (ii) a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Restated Credit Agreement) no less than 3.00 to 1.00. The Restated Credit Agreement also contains various customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, and a change of control of Concentrix.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance on our term loans was $1,350 million and $1,500 million. During the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, we voluntarily prepaid $150 million of the principal balance on our term loans, without penalty.
None of our subsidiaries guarantees the obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement.
At May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, no amounts were outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
Securitization Facility
On January 14, 2025, we entered into an amendment to the Securitization Facility to (i) increase in the commitment of the lenders to provide available borrowings from up to $600 million to up to $700 million and (ii) extend the termination date of the Securitization Facility from April 24, 2026 to January 14, 2027. For borrowings that are funded by certain lenders through the issuance of commercial paper, the amendment also reduced the spread to the applicable commercial paper rate from 0.80% to 0.75%. Other borrowings bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate (subject to a SOFR related adjustment of 0.10%), plus a spread of 0.90%.
Under the Securitization Facility, Concentrix Corporation and certain of its U.S. based subsidiaries sell or otherwise transfer all of their accounts receivable to a special purpose bankruptcy-remote subsidiary of Concentrix Corporation that grants a security interest in the receivables to the lenders in exchange for available borrowings of up to $700 million. Borrowing availability under the
Securitization Facility may be limited by our accounts receivable balances, changes in the credit ratings of our clients comprising the receivables, client concentration levels in the receivables, and certain characteristics of the accounts receivable being transferred (including factors tracking performance of the accounts receivable over time).
The Securitization Facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants, including a consolidated leverage ratio covenant that is consistent with the Restated Credit Agreement and customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults under certain other indebtedness, a change in control of Concentrix Corporation, and certain events negatively affecting the overall credit quality of the transferred accounts receivable.
Sellers’ Note
On September 25, 2023, as part of the consideration for the Webhelp Combination, we issued the Sellers’ Note in the aggregate principal amount of €700 million to certain Sellers. Pursuant to the Sellers’ Note, the unpaid principal amount outstanding accrues interest at a rate of two percent (2%) per annum, and all principal and accrued interest will be due and payable on September 25, 2025. The stated rate of interest is below our expected borrowing rate. As a result, we discounted the Sellers’ Note by €31,500. The discounted value is being amortized into interest expense over the two-year term.
We currently intend to use the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, when drawn, to repay in full the Sellers’ Note. As a result, the amount outstanding on the Sellers’ Note has been classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2025. The amount outstanding on the Sellers’ Note as of November 30, 2024 was also classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet based on the Company’s ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the debt covenants related to our debt arrangements.
Cash Flows – Six Months Ended May 31, 2025 and 2024
The following summarizes our cash flows for the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, as reported in our consolidated statement of cash flows in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended |
| May 31, 2025 | | May 31, 2024 |
| | | |
| ($ in thousands) |
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 237,944 | | | $ | 191,469 | |
Net cash used in investing activities | (107,073) | | | (120,649) | |
Net cash used in financing activities | (46,600) | | | (183,276) | |
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | 21,257 | | | (5,978) | |
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 105,528 | | | $ | (118,434) | |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at beginning of year | 429,604 | | | 516,487 | |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at the end of the period | $ | 535,132 | | | $ | 398,053 | |
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $237.9 million for the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to $191.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2024. The change over the prior year period was primarily due to favorable working capital changes and less cash required for acquisition-related and integration expenses.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended May 31, 2025 was $107.1 million, compared to $120.6 million for the six months ended May 31, 2024. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities over the prior year period primarily related to a decrease in capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended May 31, 2025 was $46.6 million, primarily consisting of net principal payments of $150.0 million on the term loans, share repurchases of $71.2 million, dividends paid of $44.5 million, change in funds held for clients of $8.8 million, payments on other borrowings of $6.0 million, debt issuance costs of $4.8 million, a deferred acquisition consideration payment of $6.5 million, all partially offset by net borrowings under our Securitization Facility of $247.0 million.
Net cash used by financing activities for the six months ended May 31, 2024 was $183.3 million, consisting of principal payments of $250.0 million made on term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility, cash paid for acquired earnout liabilities of $22.7 million, share repurchases of $62.3 million, a change in funds held for clients of $30.6 million, and dividends of $41.0 million, partially offset by net borrowings of $223.0 million under our Securitization Facility.
Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP measures)
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended |
| May 31, 2025 | | May 31, 2024 |
| | | |
| ($ in thousands) |
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 237,944 | | | $ | 191,469 | |
Purchases of property and equipment | (106,410) | | | (116,145) | |
Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) | $ | 131,534 | | | $ | 75,324 | |
Change in outstanding factoring balances | 28,936 | | | 45,258 | |
Adjusted free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) | $ | 160,470 | | | $ | 120,582 | |
Our free cash flow was $131.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2025 compared to $75.3 million for the six months ended May 31, 2024. The increase in free cash flow for the six months ended May 31, 2025 compared to the prior fiscal year period was due to the increase in cash provided by operating activities and a decrease in capital expenditures.
Our adjusted free cash flow was $160.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2025 compared to $120.6 million for the six months ended May 31, 2024. The increase in adjusted free cash flow for the six months ended May 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period was due to an increase in free cash flow partially offset by a decrease in the change in outstanding factoring balances.
Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2025, we had total liquidity of $1,524.8 million, which includes undrawn capacity on our revolving credit facility of $1,100.0 million, undrawn capacity of $82.0 million under our Securitization Facility, and cash and cash equivalents.
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $342.8 million and $240.6 million as of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively. Of our total cash and cash equivalents, 99% were held by our non-U.S. legal entities as of both May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024. The cash and cash equivalents held by our non-U.S. legal entities are no longer subject to U.S. federal tax on repatriation into the United States; repatriation of some non-U.S. balances is restricted by local laws. Historically, we have fully utilized and reinvested all non-U.S. cash to fund our international operations and expansions; however, we have recorded deferred tax liabilities related to non-U.S. withholding taxes on the earnings of certain previously acquired non-U.S. entities that are likely to be repatriated in the future. If in the future our intentions change, and we repatriate the cash back to the United States, we will report in our consolidated financial statements the impact of the state and withholding taxes depending upon the planned timing and manner of such repatriation.
We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents balances, the cash flows expected to be generated from operations, and our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy our current and planned working capital and investment needs for the next twelve months. We also believe that our longer-term working capital, planned capital expenditures, and other general corporate funding requirements will be satisfied through cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, from our borrowing facilities and future financing activities.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market Risk
We are and will be exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from changes in market rates and prices. Our risk management strategy includes managing these risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. We utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge economic exposures, as well as reduce earnings and cash flow volatility resulting from shifts in market rates. In using derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposures to changes in exchange rates, we expose ourselves to counterparty credit risk. We manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk by entering into derivative financial instruments with investment grade-rated institutions that can be expected to perform fully under the terms of the agreements and by diversifying the financial institutions with which we enter into such agreements. There can be no guarantee that the risk management activities that we have entered into will be sufficient to fully offset market risk or reduce earnings and cash flow volatility resulting from shifts in market rates. See Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion of our financial risk management.
Foreign Currency Risk
While approximately 55% of our revenue is priced in U.S. dollars, we recognize a substantial amount of revenue under contracts that are denominated in euros, British pounds, Japanese yen, and Brazilian real, among other currencies. A significant increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to these currencies may have a material adverse effect on the value of those services when translated into U.S. dollars.
We serve many of our U.S.-based, European and British clients from our delivery centers located around the world. As a result, a substantial portion of the costs to deliver these services are denominated in the local currency of the country where the services are performed. This creates foreign exchange exposure for us. As of May 31, 2025, we have hedged a portion of our exposure related to the anticipated cash flow requirements denominated in certain foreign currencies by entering into hedging contracts with institutions to acquire a total of PHP 41,780.0 million at a fixed price of $726.1 million at various dates through May 2027; and INR 29,470.0 million at a fixed price of $338.1 million at various dates through May 2027. The fair value of these derivative instruments as of May 31, 2025 is presented in Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The potential loss in fair value at May 31, 2025 for such contracts resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the underlying foreign currency exchange rates is approximately $108.4 million. This loss would be substantially mitigated by corresponding gains on the underlying foreign currency exposures.
Other foreign currency exposures arise from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency. We periodically enter into hedging contracts that are not denominated as hedges. The purpose of these derivative instruments is to mitigate the risk of foreign currency exposure related to receivables, payables, and intercompany transactions that are denominated in currencies that are different from the functional currencies of our respective legal entities that are party to the transactions. As of May 31, 2025, all of these contracts have reached maturity.
Interest Rate Risk
At May 31, 2025, our outstanding debt under our Restated Credit Agreement and our Securitization Facility is variable rate debt, which exposes the Company to changes in interest rates. Holding other variables constant, including the total amount of outstanding indebtedness, a one hundred basis point increase in interest rates on our variable-rate debt would cause an estimated increase in interest expense of approximately $19.7 million per year.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as required by Rules 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Concentrix in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our second fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations, our financial position, or the cash flows of our business. During the three months ended May 31, 2025, there were no new material legal proceedings and no material developments in any legal proceedings reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2024.
