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 nine months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 89% and 87%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was generated from our non-U.S. operations, and approximately 54% 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 historically have and expect to continue to 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. The tariff environment remains dynamic and 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.

We generate revenue by delivering our technology and services to our clients categorized in the above industry verticals. Our solutions focus on customer engagement, process optimization, and back-office automation.
Our revenue increased by 4.0% for the three months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended August 31, 2024. The increase in revenue resulted from increases in revenue across our five primary industry verticals. Foreign currency exchange rates had a positive impact of $33.6 million, or 1.4%, on revenue growth for the period. The favorable foreign currency rate impact on revenue was primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
Our revenue increased by 1.4% for the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended August 31, 2024. The increase in revenue resulted from increases in revenue primarily across our retail, travel and e-commerce vertical, communications and media vertical, and banking, financial services and insurance vertical, but was negatively impacted by the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of $28.3 million, or 0.4%. The unfavorable foreign currency rate impact on revenue was primarily due to the weakening of the Brazilian real and several other currencies against the U.S. dollar.
For the three months ended August 31, 2025, revenue increased in all of our primary industry verticals and decreased in our other vertical. Revenue in our technology and consumer electronics vertical increased by 0.9%, primarily due to increases in revenue from several social media and several other larger clients in the vertical, partially offset by a decrease in revenue with a larger client in the vertical. Revenue in our retail, travel and e-commerce vertical increased by 4.9%, primarily due to increases in revenue across the majority of clients in this vertical. Revenue in our communications and media vertical increased by 8.1%, primarily due to increases in revenue with several larger clients in the vertical. Revenue in our banking, financial services and insurance vertical increased by 9.1%, primarily due to increases in revenue from the majority of clients in the vertical. Revenue in our healthcare vertical increased by 1.0%, primary due to increases in revenue from several larger clients in the vertical. Revenue in our other vertical decreased by 1.5%,
primarily related to decreases in revenue related to several clients in the vertical, partially offset by increases in revenue from several other clients in the vertical.
For the nine months ended August 31, 2025, revenue increased in all of our primary industry verticals, except healthcare, which remained flat year over year. Revenue also decreased in our other vertical. Revenue in our technology and consumer electronics vertical increased by 0.1%, primarily due to increases in revenue from several social media and several other larger clients in the vertical partially offset by a decrease in revenue with a larger client in the vertical. Revenue in our retail, travel and e-commerce vertical increased by 2.6%, primarily due to increases in revenue from several larger clients in this vertical. Revenue in our communication and media vertical increased by 2.9%, primarily due to increases in revenue from several larger clients in the vertical. Revenue in our banking, financial services and insurance vertical increased by 3.5%, primarily due to increases in revenue from the majority of clients in the vertical. Revenue in our healthcare vertical remained flat over the prior year period, primarily due to increases in revenue for two larger clients in the vertical offset by a revenue decrease from a larger client in the vertical. Revenue in our other vertical decreased by 2.6%, primarily related to decreases in revenue from an automotive client and several other clients in the vertical, partially offset by increases in revenue from several other clients in the vertical.

Our cost of revenue increased by 6.9% in the three months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended August 31, 2024. Our cost of revenue increased due to increases in underlying revenue due to volumes and included an increase in cost of revenue of $16.0 million, or 1.1%, due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Percentage of revenue 2.9 % 3.4 % 3.0 % 3.4 %
Amounts recorded in interest expense and finance charges, net consist primarily of interest expense on our senior notes issued in August 2023, interest expense on term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility, interest expense on borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility (the "Securitization Facility"), and interest expense on the promissory note issued by us to certain Sellers in connection with the Webhelp Combination (the "Sellers' Note").
The decrease in interest expense and finance charges, net for the three months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the three months ended August 31, 2024, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on our term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility of $8.9 million. The decrease is a result of the decrease in outstanding borrowings and a decrease in the effective interest rate on the borrowings.
The decrease in interest expense and finance charges, net for the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the nine months ended August 31, 2024, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on our term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility of $29.5 million. The decrease is a result of the decrease in outstanding borrowings and a decrease in the effective interest rate on the borrowings. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest expense on our Securitization Facility of $5.0 million primarily due to the increase in outstanding borrowings in comparison to the prior year period.

The change in other expense (income), net over the prior fiscal year period was primarily due to a year over year net benefit of $12.9 million related to the change in acquisition contingent consideration associated with the Webhelp Combination and a year over year net benefit of $69.0 million related to net changes in foreign currency transaction gains (losses).
Other expense (income), net for the nine months ended August 31, 2025 was income of $20.2 million, compared to an expense of $19.8 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2024.

Percentage of income before income taxes 20.9 % 37.0 % 24.1 % 27.3 %
Our provision for income taxes consists of our current and deferred tax expense resulting from our income earned in domestic and international jurisdictions.
Our provision for income taxes increased for the three months and nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to the three months and nine months ended August 31, 2024. The increases in expense were primarily due to an increase in income before taxes and a decrease in the effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the three months and nine months ended August 31, 2025 decreased compared to the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, primarily due to certain discrete items and 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 and certain legal entity restructuring activities.
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 and certain legal entity restructuring activities. 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.

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 nine months ended August 31, 2025, we repurchased 783,698 and 2,247,399 shares, respectively, of our common stock under the share repurchase program for approximately $41.6 million and $112.8 million, respectively, in the aggregate. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, we repurchased 607,298 and 1,506,983 shares, respectively, of our common stock under the share repurchase program for approximately $39.3 million and $101.6 million, respectively, in the aggregate. At August 31, 2025, approximately $495.4 million remained available for share repurchases under the existing authorization from our board of directors.
During September 2025, we repurchased 264,597 shares of our common stock under the share repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of $14.1 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

January 15, 2025 January 31, 2025 $0.33275 February 11, 2025
March 26, 2025 April 25, 2025 $0.33275 May 6, 2025
June 26, 2025 July 25, 2025 $0.33275 August 5, 2025
On September 25, 2025, we announced a cash dividend of $0.36 per share to stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 24, 2025, payable on November 4, 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.
The principal amount outstanding on the 2026 Notes as of August 31, 2025 was 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.
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 prior 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). On September 25, 2025, we drew $750 million on the Delayed Draw Term Loans and used the proceeds and cash on hand to repay in full the Sellers' Note.
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 August 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, the outstanding principal balance on our term loans was $1,350 million and $1,500 million. During the nine months ended August 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 August 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 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.
On September 25, 2025, we used the proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loans and cash on hand to repay the principal balance and accrued interest on the Sellers' Note. The principal amount outstanding on the Sellers' Note as of August 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024 was classified as long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet based on our ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis.
As of August 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the debt covenants related to our debt arrangements.
Cash Flows - Nine Months Ended August 31, 2025 and 2024

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $462.7 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to $383.1 million for the nine months ended August 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 nine months ended August 31, 2025 was $172.1 million, compared to $183.4 million for the nine months ended August 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 nine months ended August 31, 2025 was $211.4 million, primarily consisting of net principal payments of $150.0 million on the term loans, share repurchases of $112.8 million, dividends paid of $66.4 million, change in funds held for clients of $19.2 million, deferred acquisition consideration payments of $6.5 million, payments on other borrowings of $6.2 million, and debt issuance costs of $4.8 million, partially offset by net borrowings of $154.0 million under our Securitization Facility.
Net cash used by financing activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2024 was $268.1 million, consisting of principal payments of $350.0 million made on term loan borrowings under our senior credit facility, cash paid for acquired earnout liabilities of $22.7 million, share repurchases of $101.6 million, change in funds held for clients of $25.8 million, and dividends of $61.2 million, partially offset by net borrowings of $290.5 million under our Securitization Facility.

Our free cash flow was $291.3 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2025 compared to $204.2 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2024. The increase in free cash flow for the nine months ended August 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 $339.3 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2025 compared to $255.8 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2024. The increase in adjusted free cash flow for the nine months ended August 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 August 31, 2025, we had total liquidity of $1,625.3 million, which includes undrawn capacity on our revolving credit facility of $1,100.0 million, undrawn capacity of $175.0 million under our Securitization Facility, and cash and cash equivalents.
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $350.3 million and $240.6 million as of August 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively. Of our total cash and cash equivalents, 98% were held by our non-U.S. legal entities as of both August 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.
