Commenting on this performance, Teleperformance Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Daniel Julien said:
“The strong growth dynamic observed in the first three months of the year picked up pace during the second quarter. Our Core Services and D.I.B.S. operations in the Ibero-LATAM and CEMEA regions continued their expansion, but I was particularly pleased to see faster growth in North American markets and in Specialized Services. Our first-half 2019 results also bring to light an improvement in margins that outpaced our revenue growth, demonstrating the validity of our strategy to upscale and expand our services. Constant attentiveness to our clients and their needs – achieved notably thanks to the Group-wide deployment of our digital solutions – is now a key differentiating factor. In addition, our growth is healthy, and our capacity to generate increasing cash flows has once again been proven by our performance in the first half of the year. Based on these results and on our current visibility, we are confident about our ability to exceed the financial targets set for 2019. We are therefore raising our full-year 2019 guidance. We now expect to achieve like-for-like revenue growth of at least + 8.5% and growth in EBITA margin before non-recurring items of at least + 20 bps.”
FIRST-HALF AND SECOND-QUARTER 2019 REVENUE
CONSOLIDATED REVENUE
Consolidated revenue came in at €2,564 million for the first half of 2019, representing a year-on-year increase of + 10.4% at constant exchange rates and scope of consolidation (like-for-like) and + 23.9% as reported. The difference between reported and like-for-like growth reflects a favorable currency effect of €48 million, due notably to the rise of the US dollar against the euro, and the €226 million positive scope effect from the consolidation of ex-Intelenet operations in the Group’s financial statements since October 1, 2018.
Like-for-like growth remained strong, supported by further sharp gains in Core Services and D.I.B.S., notably reflecting faster growth in the EWAP region, and by the return to a satisfactory level of growth in Specialized Services.
Second-quarter 2019 revenue came in at €1,293 million, representing a year-on-year increase of + 10.9% at constant exchange rates and scope of consolidation (like-for-like). On a reported basis, second-quarter revenue growth was + 23.9%, reflecting a favorable currency effect and the positive scope effect following the consolidation of ex-Intelenet operations.

** ex-Intelenet activities in the Middle East
(1) According to the new business segment reporting presentation adopted on January 1, 2019 (see Appendix 3)
- Core Services & Digital Integrated Business Services (D.I.B.S.)
Core Services & D.I.B.S. revenue amounted to €2,221 million in first-half 2019, a year-on-year increase of + 11.4% like-for-like. On a reported basis, revenue surged by + 26.1%, due in particular to the consolidation of ex-Intelenet operations in the Group’s financial statements since October 1, 2018.
Like-for-like growth remained strong during the first half, reflecting further sharp gains in the Ibero-LATAM, Continental Europe & MEA (CEMEA) and India & Middle East regions. It was also supported, as expected, by faster growth in the English-speaking & Asia-Pacific (EWAP) region during the second quarter.
Growth was driven by D.I.B.S., which posted revenue of €507 million in first-half 2019, representing 20% of the consolidated total.
- English-speaking & Asia-Pacific (EWAP)
In first-half 2019, revenue for the region came to €801 million, up + 4.4% like-for-like. The + 15.3% growth on a reported basis includes a favorable currency effect stemming from the US dollar's rise against the euro and a scope effect related to the consolidation of ex-Intelenet operations.
Like-for-like revenue growth accelerated sharply in the second quarter, as expected, to + 6.1%. The increase was mainly driven by the continued recovery of the Group’s businesses in North America, begun in late 2018, while revenue declined in the United Kingdom during the period, in a still uncertain economic environment.
Throughout the first half of the year, operations in North America continued to benefit from the renewed sales momentum triggered in late 2018 and the diversification of the client portfolio. The most dynamic client segments were e-tailing, healthcare, transportation services and logistics, while the insurance, entertainment and automotive industries continued to ramp up rapidly.
In Asia, growth was sustained in Malaysia, where Teleperformance continued its expansion with the recent opening of a second multilingual hub in Penang, which primarily provides B2B solutions for large accounts in the internet services industry.
- Ibero-LATAM
First-half 2019 revenue for the Ibero-LATAM region amounted to €645 million. Year-on-year growth came to + 16.1% on a like-for-like basis and to + 14.6% as reported, mainly reflecting a decline in the Argentine peso against the euro. Second-quarter revenue growth stood at + 16.2% like-for-like, confirming the positive trend observed in the first quarter, despite a less favorable basis of comparison.
Nearshore, pan-American solutions in Mexico and Colombia were the main growth drivers in the region. Teleperformance is growing its business in numerous industries in these countries, including financial services and logistics in Mexico and transportation services in Colombia. The domestic markets in both countries, as well as in Argentina, are also dynamic.
Portugal continues to be an important source of growth for the region. The Group’s business in the country is supported by the rapid expansion of multilingual hubs serving multinationals in such industries as entertainment and fast-moving consumer goods.
In Spain, growth in the Group’s businesses was driven by strong sales momentum in various industries, serving leading players in the digital economy.
Lastly, operations in Brazil progressed at a satisfactory pace, with good performances recorded by the Group in the financial services, transportation and fast-moving consumer goods segments.
- Continental Europe & MEA (CEMEA)
In the CEMEA region, revenue rose by + 14.5% like-for-like to €519 million in first-half 2019, or by + 14.3% as reported versus the prior-year period. Second-quarter like-for-like growth came to + 13.8%.
The increase was driven once again by a very solid sales performance among multinational clients and fast‑growing local market leaders in a wide range of industries.
The internet, online entertainment, e-tailing and utilities segments were the main drivers for growth in the region. Business is also ramping up rapidly in the automotive, transportation and logistics markets.
By country, the region’s growth was mainly driven by a continued increase in revenue in Greece (multilingual hubs), in Eastern Europe (Russia, Romania and Poland), where Teleperformance significantly enhanced its capacity in 2018 and in Turkey.
Operations in France continued to perform well thanks to the ongoing ramp-up of new contracts, primarily in the energy and utilities segments.
- India & Middle East
In the first half of 2019, operations in the India & Middle East region generated €255 million in revenue, up + 32.7% from the prior-year period on a like-for-like basis. Second-quarter like-for-like growth came to + 23.7%.
This solid performance is primarily attributable to the fast-paced expansion of Teleperformance operations in India (TP India), particularly in the transportation services and travel segments.
The region’s like-for-like growth for first-half 2019 does not include ex-Intelenet operations, which have only been consolidated since the fourth quarter of 2018. These activities recorded fast-paced growth during the period on a pro forma basis, particularly in the Indian domestic market.
- Specialized Services
In the first half of 2019, revenue rose by + 5.0% like-for-like and + 11.1% as reported, compared with the same prior-year period. Revenue increased by + 6.3% like-for-like in the second quarter, representing a much faster pace of growth than in the first three months of the year.
As expected, LanguageLine Solutions returned to normal growth in the first half of 2019.
Visa application management services (TLScontact) also saw a return to healthy levels of growth over the first half with an acceleration in the second quarter, thanks to satisfactory progress in sales of value-added services to applicants seeking UK visas.
FIRST-HALF 2019 RESULTS
EBITDA before non-recurring items stood at €505 million for first-half 2019, up + 56.7% from the prior-year period. It included a favorable + €96 million impact from the application of IFRS 16.
EBITA before non-recurring items rose by + 33.3% to €327 million from €246 million the year before. EBITA margin before non-recurring items widened by 90 bps to 12.8%, from 11.9% in first-half 2018. Excluding the impact of applying IFRS 16 from January 1, 2019, the margin increase came to + 40 bps.

** In accordance with IFRS 16
(1) According to the new business segment reporting presentation adopted on January 1, 2019 (c.f. Appendix 3)
- Core Services & D.I.B.S.
For Core Services & D.I.B.S., EBITA before non-recurring items came to €215 million in the first half of 2019, versus €151 million in the first half of 2018. EBITA margin before non-recurring items stood at 9.7%, versus 8.6% for the prior-year period. Excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16 in first-half 2019, the margin was still significantly higher than a year earlier.
The increase was primarily due to the continued recovery in margins in the EWAP and CEMEA regions. Margins in the Ibero-LATAM region remained high, despite a slight contraction due to the cost of starting up numerous new facilities.
- English-speaking & Asia-Pacific (EWAP)
The EWAP region generated EBITA before non-recurring items of €58 million in first-half 2019, compared to €43 million in the prior-year period, and the margin widened to 7.2% versus 6.2% the year before. Excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16, first-half 2019 still saw a satisfactory improvement in the margin year‑on-year.
Margin growth in the first half of 2019 was supported by the ramp-up of recently signed contracts, relating in particular to domestic business in North America and multilingual solutions in Malaysia.
The Group confirms its objective of further improving the region’s margins in 2019, excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16.
- Ibero-LATAM
EBITA before non-recurring items in the Ibero-LATAM region rose to €69 million in first-half 2019, from €61 million in the prior-year period.
Margin remained high, at 10.7%, but was slightly lower year-on-year excluding the impact of IFRS 16. The slight contraction was due to the cost of ramping up major new sites, notably including the new multilingual capabilities being developed in Portugal and the new contact centers opened in Colombia and Peru.
The Group confirms its objective of maintaining the region’s margins throughout 2019, excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16.
- Continental Europe & MEA (CEMEA)
Teleperformance continued to improve the profitability of its CEMEA operations. In first-half 2019, EBITA before non-recurring items came to €32 million, versus €19 million in the prior-year period, with the margin coming out at 6.2%. Excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16 in first-half 2019, the EBITA margin before non-recurring items still improved sharply year-on-year, benefiting from:
- Continued solid, profitable growth in business with global and premium clients in a number of countries in Southern and Eastern Europe, such as Greece with its highly efficient multilingual solutions, and Russia;
- Ongoing margin recovery in French-speaking businesses, notably reflecting the development of nearshore solutions.
The Group confirms its objective of achieving further improvements in the region’s margins in 2019, excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16.
- India & Middle East
EBITA before non-recurring items in the India & Middle East region amounted to €39 million, versus €6 million in the prior-year period. EBITA margin before non-recurring items came to 15.3%, representing an increase over the first half of 2018 (11.5%). Excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16 in first-half 2019, the margin still improved significantly.
It benefited fully from the profitable growth achieved by Teleperformance in India (TP India), and also included a scope effect related to the first-time consolidation in first-half 2019 of the high-value-added ex-Intelenet operations.
- Specialized Services
Specialized Services reported EBITA before non-recurring items of €112 million and a margin of 32.6%, representing an improvement over the prior-year period (30.7%). Excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16 in first-half 2019, the margin was significantly higher than a year earlier.
LanguageLine Solutions continued to post healthy margins in the first half of 2019, as did TLScontact, which benefited fully from the development of value-added services on behalf of the British government.
The Group confirms that it expects to see an improvement in Specialized Services margins for full-year 2019, excluding the positive impact of applying IFRS 16.
OTHER INCOME STATEMENT ITEMS
EBIT amounted to €255 million for the year, versus €190 million in 2018. It included:
- €54 million in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, versus €41 million in the prior-year period, with the increase due to the Intelenet acquisition, which closed on October 1, 2018;
- €11 million in accounting expenses relating to performance share plans;
- €5 million in other non-recurring expenses, corresponding to the last round of costs associated with changing the Group’s brand identity in late 2018;
- an €11 million favorable impact triggered by the application of IFRS 16 from January 1, 2019.
The financial result represented a net expense of €47 million, versus €19 million in first-half 2018. It included an expense of €21 million related to the application of IFRS 16.
Income tax expense amounted to €63 million. The Group's average tax rate was 30.1%, up from 27.8% in first‑half 2018, owing to the inclusion of ex-Intelenet operations in India.
Net profit - Group share totaled €145 million for the first half, up + 18.0% over the prior-year period, and included a negative €7 million impact related to the application of IFRS 16. Diluted earnings per share came to €2.49, versus €2.10 in first-half 2018, and included an unfavorable impact of €0.10 related to the application of IFRS 16.
CASH FLOWS AND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
Cash flow after lease expenses, interest and tax paid amounted to €286 million, versus €209 million in the prior-year period. The change in consolidated working capital requirement was an outflow of €13 million in first-half 2019, compared with an inflow of €28 million in first-half 2018.
Net capital expenditure amounted to €101 million (vs. €81 million in first-half 2018), or 3.9% of revenue, stable versus last year. Capital expenditure has been maintained at high levels, reflecting the robust growth in demand in the Group’s markets.
Net free cash flow came to €172 million, versus €156 million in first-half 2018.
After the payment of €111 million in dividends, net debt stood at €2,775 million at June 30, 2019. This includes an unfavorable impact relating to the application of IFRS 16, in the amount of €688 million.
The Group has a solid balance sheet and was able to renegotiate lending rates and covenants in 2018.
The Group confirms that its free cash flow should enable it to reduce outstanding debt quickly and bring the net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio back to around 2.0 in 2019, excluding the impact of applying IFRS 16.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Extensions and new facilities
In the first half of 2019, Teleperformance continued to deploy its strategy of expanding worldwide by opening new facilities in:

- the Ibero-LATAM region: mainly in Colombia and Portugal, as well as in Spain and Argentina;
- the Continental Europe & MEA region: primarily in Greece and in Turkey;

- the Continental Europe & MEA region: in Tunisia, Turkey, Russia, Egypt and Bosnia;
- the India & Middle East region: in India.

OUTLOOK
Teleperformance is raising its full-year 2019 financial objectives:
- like-for-like revenue: growth objective from “at least + 7%” to “at least + 8.5%”;
- EBITA margin before non-recurring items: the Group is now targeting an improvement of at least 20 bps, excluding the positive impact of the first application of IFRS 16 from January 1, 2019.
The Group remains confident about its ability to continue to generate a strong level of cash flow during the year, enabling it to pursue its dynamic development strategy while maintaining strict financial discipline.

APPENDICES
APPENDIX 1 – APPLICATION OF IFRS 16 CONCERNING LEASE ACCOUNTING FROM JANUARY 1, 2019
The accounting policies applied in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2019 are the same as those at June 30, 2018, with the exception of IFRS 16 concerning lease accounting which has been applied from January 1, 2019.
As the group has elected to apply IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach, the 2018 comparative amounts have not been restated.
Under IFRS 16, all lease contracts are now recognized on the statement of financial position, measured by discounting the future contractual lease payments to present value. This results in the recognition of a new specific non-current asset and financial liabilities.
The “right-of-use” asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term; the lease liability is increased by the interest expense of the period and reduced by the amount of lease payments.

* Praxidia has been grouped with Intelenet’s Knowledge Services operations, based in India. |
In addition, following the acquisition of Intelenet and the execution of the Group's strategy to deploy its digital solutions across the organization, Teleperformance's “digital” activities in each of the four Core Services regions now come under the umbrella of Digital Integrated Business Services (D.I.B.S.).
In addition to the activities in the India & Middle East region, D.I.B.S. includes BPO activities, as well as e-mail, chat and social networks (content moderation) solutions of the Group.
This business reporting presentation reflects the new organization to consider the upscaling of the solutions and the digitalization of the offering of Teleperformance to more effectively meet its clients’ needs in terms of their development and their digital transformation.
