F1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND METHODS

1. Reporting entity

Teleperformance ("the company") is a company domiciled in France.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the company as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 includes the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "the group").

The consolidated financial statements of the group for the year ended December 31, 2013 are available upon request from the company's registered office at 21/25 rue Balzac, 75008 Paris or from its website www.teleperformance.com.

All financial information presented in millions of euros has been rounded to the nearest million, unless otherwise specified.

2. Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" and are presented in accordance with revised IAS 1. They do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the group as at and for the year ended December 31, 2013 which are included in the 2013 reference document D.14-0102 that was filed with the AMF (the French Stock Exchange regulator) on February 28, 2014.

The accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on July 28, 2014.

3. New accounting standards

The following standards, amendments and interpretations:

  • Standards relating to consolidated financial statements IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IFRS 12;
  • Amendments to IAS 27 and IAS 28 following the issue of IFRS 10, 11, 12;
  • Amendments to IAS 32 on offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities;
  • Amendments to IAS 36 on disclosures on the recoverable amount for non-financial assets;
  • Amendments to IAS 39 on novation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting;

did not have a significant impact on the group's financial statements.

The group has elected not to anticipate the application of IFRIC 21 prior to its date of application of January 1, 2015.

The group does not expect that its adoption will have a significant impact on the financial statements.

4. Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied by the group in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the group in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2013, with the exception of the new standards, amendments and interpretations set out above.

5. Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires making estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts in the financial statements, especially with respect to the following items:

  • the depreciation and amortization rates,
  • the calculation of losses on doubtful receivables,
  • the calculation of impairment losses on intangible assets and goodwill,
  • the measurement of provisions and commitments for retirement benefits,
  • the measurement of financial liabilities connected with purchase commitments to minority shareholders,
  • the measurement of share-based payment expense,
  • other provisions, particularly relating to legal claims,
  • restructuring provisions,
  • the measurement of intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination,
  • deferred taxation.

Such estimates are based on information available at the time of preparation of the financial statements, and may be revised, in a future period, if circumstances change, or if new information is available. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

6. Determination of fair values

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy is made up of three levels:

  • Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
  • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
  • Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

7. Financial risk management

During January 2014, the group renegotiated the financial conditions of the syndicated credit facility of € 300 million which had been put in place in June 2012. As a result, the facility is now repayable in February 2019 rather than the initial date of June 2017.

8. Segment reporting

Segments may be aggregated when they present similar economic characteristics.

The group's business is divided into the following three major management regions:

  • The English-speaking region (including Asia-Pacific), which covers the businesses in the following countries: Canada, United States, United Kingdom, South Africa, China, Indonesia, India, Philippines, Singapore and Jamaica.
  • The Ibero-Latam region, which covers the businesses in the following countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Mexico, Spain and Portugal.
  • The Continental Europe & MEA region, which covers the businesses in all countries of Europe, the Middle East and Africa, with the exception of the United Kingdom, Spain and Portugal; the TLS and GN Research sub-groups are also included.

Inter-segment sales are negligible and are made under arm's length conditions.

F2. CHANGES IN CONSOLIDATION SCOPE

The group made no significant acquisition or disposal during the first half of 2014.

F3. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

1. Goodwill

There were no changes to the composition of CGUs or groups of CGUs in the first half of 2014.

The group has reviewed these CGUs or group of CGUs to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.

In particular, the group reviewed closely the two CGU groups represented by Central Europe and Argentina for which the sensitivity analyses at December 31, 2013 had shown little margin for absorbing downward changes in assumptions.

The impairment reviews did not result in the recognition of any impairment losses in the first half of 2014.

6. Financial instruments

Foreign exchange hedging operations

Revenues and operating expenses of group companies are denominated principally in the currency of each country concerned. However, the group is exposed to foreign exchange risk in certain subsidiaries where revenues are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency.

To cover these exchange risks, hedge contracts are entered into in the following principal currencies:

  • - the US dollar and the Mexican peso;
  • - the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Philippine peso and the US dollar.

The policy of the group is to cover its highly probable forecast transactions denominated in foreign currency, usually up to 12 months ahead. The group uses forward exchange contracts and plain vanilla foreign exchange options.

In addition, following the extension of the cash pool in 2010 to countries outside the euro zone (particularly the United States and Mexico), hedging arrangements were put in place to cover the risk of changes in exchange rates amongst the various currencies managed in the cash pool.

Finally, a number of loans between Teleperformance SA and its subsidiaries are also hedged.

The principal derivative financial instruments in place at June 30, 2014 are as follows:

A. Group revenues in the first half year 2014

A.1 Business activity over the last half year

Consolidated revenue amounted to € 1,245.0 million in the first half of 2014, an increase of + 4.1% as reported and of + 10.3% at constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates (like-for-like).

Changes in exchange rates had a € 67.8 million negative impact on reported revenue that mainly reflected the decline in the Brazilian real, US dollar, and Argentine and Colombian pesos against the euro.

Continental Europe & MEA 382.9 346.9 + 10.4 % + 12.8 %
TOTAL 1,245.0 1,196.1 + 4.1 % + 10.3 %

First-half 2014 revenue was primarily shaped by the steep increase in business in the English speaking market & Asia-Pacific region especially in the United States and in the Continental Europe & MEA region, which is benefiting from the fast ramp-up of business at the TLScontact subsidiary, specialized in managing visa applications.

During the period, the English speaking market & Asia-Pacific region represented 39.7% of consolidated revenue, the Ibero-LATAM region 29.5% and Continental Europe & MEA 30.8%.

English-speaking market & Asia-Pacific

Compared with the prior year, regional revenue rose by + 8.8% as reported and + 13.7% like-for-like in the first half and by + 11.3% as reported and + 17.6% like-for-like in the second quarter alone.

In the United States, growth is gaining momentum, led by the many new contracts won since last year, especially in the health, banking, insurance and retail sectors.

Business is expanding quickly in the United Kingdom, thanks to the sustained diversification of the business base in the key public sector and retail markets.

The pace of growth also remains strong in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in China where Teleperformance has successfully forged preferred partnership relations with locally based North American multinationals.

Ibero-LATAM

Operations in the Ibero-LATAM region delivered satisfactory growth for the first half, with a like-for-like increase of + 3.9% despite a high prior-year basis of comparison. As reported, however, revenue was down 6.8%, reflecting the unfavorable currency environment during the period, notably with the Brazilian real losing more than 15% and the Argentine peso nearly 40% against the euro compared with first-half 2013.

In the second quarter, regional revenue rose by + 2.8% like-for-like, but declined by - 7.2% as reported due to the adverse currency effect.

Mexico and Portugal reported the fastest growth, while business in Argentina continued to suffer from the lackluster economy. The slowdown in business in Brazil, which emerged in the final quarter of 2013, continued over the period.

Continental Europe & MEA

Regional revenue rose by + 12.8% like-for-like and by + 10.4% as reported in the first half and by + 13.5% likefor-like and + 11.4% in the second quarter alone.

This performance is being led by the sustained, solid sales drive with global customers, notably in the Netherlands, Russia and Southern Europe (Greece and Turkey), by the ongoing upturn in growth in several countries such as Italy, and by the fast first-half ramp-up in business at the TLScontact subsidiary, specialized in managing visa applications. In fact, TLScontact's contribution for the first-half more than doubled year-on-year.

The faster growth in the second quarter compared with the prior-year period primarily resulted from the start-up of a major contract signed in late 2013 with UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI), covering the Euro-Med and Africa regions.

A.2 First-half 2014 results

EBITA before non-recurring items stood at € 100.2 million, up + 4.5% from the € 95.9 million reported in first-half 2013. EBITA margin before non-recurring items widened to 8.1% from 8.0% a year earlier.

The English-speaking market & Asia-Pacific region saw its EBITA margin before non-recurring items improve to 9.4% from 8.8% in first-half 2013, lifted by the sharp growth in business volumes and a favorable transaction effect, mainly due to the weakening of the Philippine peso against the US dollar over the period.

EBITA in the Ibero-LATAM region contracted to € 36.6 million from € 44.6 million in first-half 2013, mainly as a result of an unfavorable currency environment with the decline in the Brazilian real and the Colombian and Mexican pesos against the euro. While down due to the geographic mix in the region, EBITA margin remained high, at 9.8%.

With EBITA of € 3.9 million, representing 1.0% of revenue, the Continental Europe & MEA region confirmed the return to breakeven reached in first-half 2013. The Group benefited from a speed-up in business growth in a certain number of countries in Southern and Northern Europe and the fast expansion of TLScontact's operations.

Reported EBIT amounted to € 88.9 million, up + 7.1% from € 83.0 million in first-half 2013.

First-half 2014 EBIT reflects the amortization of intangible assets in an amount of € 4.1 million as well as the following non-recurring expenses:

  • € 2.9 million in accounting costs on the performance share plans set up in 2013.
  • € 4.4 million in other non-recurring costs, of which €1.8 million relating to the cost of acquiring Aegis USA Inc.

Net financial expense stood at € 5.1 million, versus € 4.1 million in first-half 2013.

Income tax expense amounted to € 26.3 million, corresponding to an effective tax rate of 31.4%, versus 32.6% in the prior first half.

Minority interests in net profit amounted to € 0.4 million, versus € 0.1 million last year.

Net profit attributable to shareholders rose by + 7.3% over the period, to € 57.0 million from € 53.1 million in firsthalf 2013. Diluted earnings per share stood at € 1.00, up + 6.4% year-on-year.

4. Statutory auditors' review report on 2014 Half-yearly Financial Information

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014

This is a free translation into English of the statutory auditors' review report on the half-yearly financial information issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English speaking users. This report includes information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group's interim management report. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional standards applicable in France.

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your shareholders meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 of the French Monetary and Financial Code ("Code monétaire et financier"), we hereby report to you on:

  • the review of the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements of Teleperformance SA, for the period from January 1st, 2014 to June 30, 2014;
  • the verification of the information presented in the interim management report.

These condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of Directors. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

I. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 - standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

II. Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the half-yearly management report on the condensed halfyearly consolidated financial statements subject to our review. We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements.
