Comments on the 3Q23 financial performance
The net revenue was R$529.1 million in 3Q23, a decline of 5.4% compared to 3Q22, or a reduction of 1.7% at constant currency. In the third quarter of 2023, 44% of the revenue came from Latam, 42% from North America, 10% from Europe and 4% from Asia Pacific.
The cost of services provided in 3Q23 was R$356.8 million, 1.9% lower than in 3Q22, and the gross profit was R$172.3 million. The Adjusted Gross Profit in 3Q23 was R$184.4 million, with an Adjusted Gross Profit margin of 34.8%.
In 3Q23, selling, general and administrative (SG&A), and other operating expenses were R$101.8 million, 22.3% lower than in 3Q22. This reduction can be primarily attributed to the non-recurring M&A expenses incurred in 2022 and our efforts to optimize operational expenses in 2023.
Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled R$22.9 million in 3Q23, a decrease of 2.9% compared to 3Q22, explained by the reduction of real estate property leases. Amortization of intangible assets from acquired companies was R$10.7 million in 3Q23, a 4.6% increase compared to 3Q22.
In 3Q23, the Adjusted EBITDA was R$97.8 million, a reduction of 7.1% compared to 3Q22, mainly due to the decline in the gross profit margin, partially offset by the improvement in SG&A expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.5% in the quarter.
In 3Q23, net financial expenses were R$20.3 million, R$12.8 million higher than in 3Q22, mainly driven by lower foreign exchange (FX) gains in the comparable period and a derivative gain from an interest rate swap that benefited our results in 3Q22.
In 3Q23, income tax expense was R$13.2 million, 20.4% lower than in 3Q22, mainly due to the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes from the Ntersol acquisition. The income tax paid (cash effect) was R$6.8 million, equivalent to a cash tax rate of 13.8%.
The net profit was R$36.2 million in 3Q23, 11% lower than 3Q22. Adjusted Net Profit was R$45.5 million, a decrease of 32.4% compared to 3Q22, mainly due to higher net financial expenses, as aforementioned. Consequently, the Adjusted Net Profit margin was 8.6%.
Business Outlook
We expect our net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 to be in the range of R$519 million to R$ 540 million on a reported basis (average FX rate of 4.95 BRL/USD in 4Q23).
For the full year of 2023, we expect our net revenue growth to be in the range of 4.0% to 5.0% year-over-year, assuming a constant currency outlook (average FX rate of 5.17 BRL/USD in 2022). In addition, we estimate our Adjusted EBITDA margin to be at least 19% for the full year of 2023.
These expectations are forward-looking statements, and actual results may differ materially. See "Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements" below.
Share Repurchase Program
On November 16, 2023, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program, pursuant to which CI&T may repurchase up to 2.5 million of its outstanding class A common shares until December 31, 2024.

Basis of accounting and functional currency
CI&T maintains its books and records in Brazilian reais, the presentation currency for its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the functional currency of our operations in Brazil. CI&T prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB, and International Financial Reporting Standard No 34—Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”).
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We regularly monitor certain financial and operating metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. These non-IFRS financial measures include Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Profit, Adjusted Net Profit Margin, Net Revenue at Constant Currency, and Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency, and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but not as substitutes for IFRS results. In addition, our calculation of these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from those used by other companies, and therefore, comparability may be limited. These non-IFRS financial measures are provided as additional information to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our operations’ historical and current financial performance.
CI&T is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Non-IFRS Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable IFRS measure because it is unable to reasonably predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable efforts. These items include but are not limited to, stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses, the tax effect of non-IFRS adjustments, foreign currency exchange gains/losses, and other items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on IFRS-reported results for the guidance period.
We calculate Net Revenue at Constant Currency and Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency by translating Net Revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into Brazilian reais using the comparable foreign currency exchange average rates from the prior period to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations.
In calculating Adjusted Gross Profit, we exclude cost components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments applied were: (i) depreciation and amortization related to costs of services provided; and (ii) stock-based compensation expenses.
In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments were: (i) stock-based compensation expenses; (ii) government grants related to tax reimbursement in the Chinese subsidiary; and (iii) acquisition-related expenses, including present value and fair value adjustment on accounts payable for business acquired , consulting expenses, and retention packages.
In calculating Adjusted Net Profit, we exclude components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments applied were acquisition-related expenses, including amortization of intangible assets from acquired companies, present value and fair value adjustment on accounts payable for business acquired , consulting expenses, and retention packages.
