The Company delivered revenues of $411.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2025, a 7.1% increase compared to the same period in the prior year due to growth from existing and new clients launched throughout fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 to-date. Net income during the nine months ended March 31, 2025 was $27.3 million, a 14.5% increase from $23.8 million during the same period in the prior year. Fully diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 of $1.70 increased from $1.29 in the prior year period. These increases were driven by revenue growth in our higher margin offshore regions, improved gross margin performance, and fewer diluted shares outstanding compared to the prior year period.

Macroeconomic factors, including but not limited to, increasing inflation and interest rates, global economic and geopolitical uncertainty, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and the impact that these factors are having on our clients and their customers, have also impacted our financial results during the nine months ended March 31, 2025. Some of our customers have increased their focus on cost reduction, resulting in decisions to shift work from onshore sites to offshore sites, which may impact our revenues and operations in the near term. However, we also believe that they present opportunities with both new and existing clients, as companies maintain a focus on cost reduction and look for new solutions and delivery options.

Demand for customer interaction services reflects a client’s underlying business performance and priorities. Growth in a client’s business often results in increased demand for our customer engagement solutions. Conversely, a decline in a client’s business generally results in a decrease in demand for our customer engagement solutions, shifting volume to lower cost geographies, and potential increases in demand for our customer acquisition and expansion solutions. The correlation between a client's business performance and demand for outsourced customer interaction solutions can therefore be complex, and depends upon several factors, such as industry consolidation, client investments in growth, and overall macroeconomic environment, all of which can result in short term revenue volatility for outsourcing providers. Demand during the nine months ended March 31, 2025 was higher when compared to the prior year quarter due to increased demand for our digital-first solutions, growth in our existing clients, and recent new client wins in strategic verticals.

Previous wording
As demand for delivery locations has continued to shift towards lower cost geographies during the nine months ended March 31, 2025, we have continued to fill the additional capacity in our offshore region and expect this capacity to be absorbed quickly as clients and prospective clients look to relocate work to cost advantageous markets in the near term. In addition, we continue to realize cost savings as we geographically optimize our delivery centers in higher cost regions.
Current wording

Previous wording
When compensation levels of our employees increase, we may not be able to pass on such increased costs to our clients or do so on a timely basis, which tends to depress our operating profit margins if we cannot generate sufficient offsetting productivity gains. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, we continued to see increasing wage pressure in all of our geographies, in part brought on by the current global inflation and labor shortage, which is increasing competition for contact center agents from other sectors of the economy. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, we have offset some of these wage increases with higher agent quality and increased productivity, higher agent retention, and increased client prices under contractual cost of living adjustments (“COLA”). Furthermore, our overall labor cost as a percentage of revenue is impacted by the aforementioned shift in delivery location from onshore delivery centers to offshore centers.

Previous wording
We generate greater profit margins from our work carried out by agents located in offshore and nearshore regions compared to our work carried out from onshore locations in the United States. As a result, our operating margins are influenced by the proportion of our work delivered from these higher margin locations. Over time we have expanded and further diversified our delivery network by adding facilities in these locations, offering a significant relative cost advantage. Our percentage of workstations in nearshore and offshore centers is approximately 97% as of March 31, 2025. We regularly evaluate whether to procure additional space or enter into new markets as we continue to add employees and expand geographically to meet the demands of our business.

We have a strong track record of winning key new client accounts and as a result of our land and expand strategy, we have been successful in winning an increasing number of new client engagements, and subsequently increasing our revenues with these clients period over period. Historically, our in-year new client wins have generated 2.5x to 3.0x revenue in the second and third years of the engagement. The slowing economic environment impacted the length of our sales cycles during recent years, however, we have experienced a recovery in the pace of sales activity beginning the second half of fiscal year 2024.

Our revenues are dependent upon both volumes and unit pricing for our services. Client pricing is often expressed in terms of a base price per minute or hour as well as, in limited cases, with bonuses and occasionally penalties depending upon our achievement of certain client objectives. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the tightening in the global labor market and corresponding wage inflation, as well as increasing facilities expenses have resulted in us pursuing and successfully negotiating price increases or COLA with many of our clients.
