Statutory auditors' reports on the interim financial information

Period from January 1, 2014 to June 30, 2014

This is a free translation into English of the Statutory Auditors' review report issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English speaking readers. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional auditing standards applicable in France.

To the Shareholders,

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

  • the review of the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Cap Gemini S.A., for the six months ended 30 June 2014;
  • the verification of the information contained in the interim financial review.

These condensed interim 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.

1. 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 interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 - the standard of IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

2. Specific verification

We have also verified the information given in the interim financial review on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements subject to our review. We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

FIRST-HALF 2014 HIGHLIGHTS

In an economic context marked by only slightly positive activity growth in continental Europe, the Group successfully continued to improve its operating profitability. Revenues for the first-half 2014 totaled €5,104 million, up 1.4% (and 2.6% like-for-like) on the first-half 2013. Foreign exchange impacts were unfavorable over the period and weighed 1.9 points on half-year growth, primarily due to the depreciation against the euro of the US, Australian and Canadian dollars and the Brazilian real, partially offset by the appreciation of the British pound. The integration of Euriware had a favorable impact of 0.7 points on reported growth for the firsthalf. Like-for-like growth remained strong in the Asia-Pacific and Latin America area (+9.1%) and North America (+6.1%), but is only slightly positive across Europe as a whole (+1.1%). The second quarter nonetheless enjoyed an upturn in trends, with Group revenues rising 3% like-for-like.

An analysis of new orders confirms the overall improvement in demand: bookings totaled €5,653 million in the first-half 2014, up 20% on the same period in 2013.

The Group operating margin for the first-half 2014 is €402 million or 7.9% of revenues (representing an increase of 0.6 points on the first-half 2013). This result supports the forecast increase for 2014 announced at the beginning of the year of between 0.3 and 0.5 points. Restructuring costs recorded a further decrease to €19 million compared with €31 million in the first-half 2013, already an all-time low. On this basis, operating profit for the half-year reached €354 million, up 17% on the same period last year.

After a net financial expense of €34 million and an income tax expense of €91 million, profit for the half-year is €229 million compared with €169 million for the first-half 2013 and profit for the period attributable to owners of the Company is €240 million compared with €176 million for the first-half 2013, an increase of over 36%.

Since January 1, the Group has announced several contracts, the launch of new services and partnerships, bearing witness to the growing success of the implementation of Capgemini's strategy:

  • ► Launch of a new global service line "Digital Customer Experience", to help organizations make the most of digital opportunities in their customer relationship;
  • ► Signature of a partnership with VMWare to develop new cloud orchestration solutions;
  • ► Signature of a contract for more than €40 million with Lloyd's Register, the oldest British maritime classification company, for the performance of new infrastructure and application management services;
  • ► Signature with AREVA of an IT services agreement worth €1 billion over 10 years;
  • ► Signature of a BPO contract with Honeywell to transform its accounting and finance function;
  • ► Extension of the partnership with Cloudera to help organizations implement their Big Data initiatives;
  • ► Signature of an application services agreement with Office Dépot.

Following a dividend payment of €1.10 per share (€174 million) and in spite of the seasonal increase in working capital requirements, net cash and cash equivalents remains positive at €205 million at the end of June 2014. Group organic free cash flow is -€148 million in the first-half 2014, compared with -€313 million in the first-half 2013.

Organic free cash flow is generally negative in the first-half of the year due to the seasonality of certain payments (primarily bonuses). The improvement noted this year is due to the increase in profitability and the reduction in interest payments, as well as ongoing working capital requirement management efforts.

The Group headcount totals 138,809 at June 30, 2014, up on June 30, 2013 (127,968) and December 31, 2013 (131,430). The attrition rate of 16.3% observed during the first half is unchanged on the first-half 2013. 45% of employees are now located off-shore.

North America revenues (20.3% of Group revenues) remained practically stable due to the impact of the depreciation of the US and Canadian dollars. Like-for-like growth was 6.1%. The first-half 2014 therefore confirmed the return to growth in this area which commenced in the second-half 2013. The operating margin rate is 11.9% and remains close to the highly satisfactory level attained in 2013, bearing witness to the success of the offshore strategy of the Group, which adapted its production model in response to client demand in this market where it is now a major player.

The United Kingdom and Ireland area (21.2% of Group revenues) reported a 7% increase in revenues and a like-for-like increase of 3.3% for the half-year. This upturn was achieved in a context of renewed investment in the commercial sector, while the public sector, which still accounts for 60% of business in this area, contracted slightly. The operating margin rate increased 1.8 points on the first-half 2013 to 9.9%.

France (22.4% of Group revenues) reported an increase of 4.7% in revenues. Adjusted for the impact of the Euriware transaction on the consolidation scope, like-for-like growth is 1.5%. Given the difficult nature of the French market, this increase once again bears witness to the improved competitive position of the Group in France. The operating margin rate fell 0.5 points on the firsthalf 2013 to 6.7%.

Benelux (10.3% of Group revenues) reported a slight 2.1% decrease in activity. The contraction was limited to 1.2% in the second quarter. The economic context was particularly unfavorable in this area in the first-half 2014. The operating margin rate is 8.9% (8.2% in the first-half 2013), confirming the return to profitability of this area following the measures taken at the end of 2012.

The Rest of Europe (18.1% of Group revenues) contracted 2.1% and only 0.1% like-for-like. The near stability of revenues reflects differences in economic momentum between the markets of Northern and Southern Europe. The operating margin rate increased 1.7 points in one year to 7.9%, with the Group demonstrating in this area the effectiveness of offshore activities in increasing profitability despite a weak market context.

Activity in the Asia-Pacific and Latin America area (7.7% of Group revenues) fell 5.7% due to the weakness of the main currencies in this area and particularly the Brazilian real. Revenues rose 9.1% like-for-like. Latin America continued to benefit from the ramp-up of a major contract signed in 2012. The operating margin rate remains limited at 2.7%, an improvement of 0.1 points on the first-half 2013. The seasonality of the operating margin is more marked in this area and the Group expects a higher margin rate in the second-half.

Growing demand from clients to group application development and maintenance services in a single contract led the Group to review the presentation of its segment reporting by business. The distinction between technology services, which include application development and outsourcing services, which include the maintenance activity, has therefore become artificial.

Accordingly, with effect from January 1, 2014, segment reporting by business is presented as follows:

  • ► Consulting Services, which help to enhance the performance of organizations based on in-depth knowledge of client industries and processes,
  • ► Local Professional Services, which provide assistance and support to internal IT teams within client companies,
  • ► Application Services, which devise, develop, implement and maintain IT applications covering the Group's system integration and application maintenance activities.
  • ► Other Managed Services, which integrate, manage and/or develop either fully or partially, client's IT Infrastructure systems (or that of a group of clients), transaction services, on demand services and/or business activities (Business Process Outsourcing, BPO).

* like-for-like

Consulting Services (4.4% of Group revenues) remains the Group business most affected by the economic environment in the first-half 2014 (4.7% contraction in activities, like-for-like). Growth in Germany and France, which enjoyed an upturn following the contraction reported in 2013, proved insufficient to offset the fall in other geographic areas. The utilization rate was 65% in the first quarter and 69% in the second quarter. The operating margin rate fell 0.7 points on the first-half 2013 to 7%.

Local Professional Services (Sogeti, 15.2% of Group revenues) reported a limited 0.6% increase in revenues, like-for-like. This overall stability was the result of growth in North America and the United Kingdom, offset by a downturn in France and Benelux. The operating margin rate slipped 0.9 points on the first-half 2013 to 8.2%.

Application Services (56.4% of Group revenues) reported 2.2% growth in revenues, like-for-like. The position is, however, more contrasted across geographic areas: the Asia-Pacific and Latin America area remained extremely dynamic, while North America, the United Kingdom and Ireland grew and Continental Europe as a whole contracted. The operating margin rate increased 0.9 points on the first-half 2013 to 9.3%.

Other Managed Services (24% of Group revenues) reported like-for-like activity growth of 6.5% on the first-half 2013. All geographic areas, with the exception of Germany and Central Europe contributed to this growth. The operating margin rate increased significantly by 1.3 points on the first-half 2013 to 7.3%, boosted by the improved profitability of the infrastructure services business.

ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

Consolidated Income Statement

Revenues for first-half 2014 totaled €5,104 million, compared with €5,033 million for first-half 2013, up 1.4% (2.6% like-for-like).

The operating margin for the first six months of 2014 was €402 million, compared with €367 million for the same period in 2013, representing a margin rate of 7.9% compared with 7.3%.

Other operating income and expenses represented a net expense of €38 million in the first-half 2014, with the improvement on the first-half 2013 (€50 million) mainly due to further significant reductions in restructuring costs from €31 million to €19 million.

Operating profit is therefore €354 million for the half-year ended June 30, 2014 (6.9% of revenues) compared with €302 million for the first-half 2013 (6.0% of revenues), representing a further 0.9 point improvement in operating profitability.

The net financial expense totaled €34 million in the first-half 2014, compared to €53 million on the same period in 2013. This decrease on the first-half 2013 was mainly due to the fall in interest on borrowings following the repurchase, conversion and redemption of the "OCEANE 2009" bond issue convertible/exchangeable into new or existing Cap Gemini shares in the secondhalf 2013.

The income tax expense for the first-half 2014 is €91 million, compared with €80 million for the first-half 2013 and the effective tax rate for the first-half 2014 is 28.6% (32.1% in the first-half 2013).

Profit for the period attributable to owners of the Company is therefore €240 million for the half-year ended June 30, 2014, a surge of 36.6% on the profit of €176 million for the first-half 2013. Earnings per share is therefore €1.51 based on 159,063,915 shares outstanding at June 30, 2014, compared with €1.10 based on 159,129,651 shares outstanding at June 30, 2013.

Consolidated Statement of Financial Position

Consolidated equity attributable to owners of the Company totaled €4,433 million at June 30, 2014, down €25 million compared with December 31, 2013. This decrease was mainly due to:

  • ► the payment of dividends to shareholders (€174 million);
  • ► a share capital reduction following the cancellation of treasury shares (€65 million);
  • ► the cancellation of treasury shares (€38 million);

partially offset by the recognition of profit for the period of €240 million.

Non-current assets totaled €5,502 million at June 30, 2014. This increase of €65 million on December 31, 2013 mainly reflects:

  • ► a €41 million net increase in goodwill, primarily due to positive foreign currency translation adjustments of €37 million on goodwill denominated in foreign currencies;
  • ► a €18 million increase in other non-current assets primarily due to the fair value remeasurement of cash flow hedging derivative instruments contracted pursuant to the central management of foreign exchange risk, recognized through equity (at December 31, 2013, the fair value of these instruments was recorded in "Other non-current liabilities").

Non-current liabilities excluding long-term borrowings amounted to €1,494 million at June 30, 2014. This €89 million increase on December 31, 2013 is mainly attributable to the following movements:

  • ► a €103 million increase in provisions for pensions and other post-employment benefits chiefly due to a net actuarial loss resulting from the decrease in discount rates in Canada and the United Kingdom between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014;
  • ► a €28 million decrease in other non-current liabilities primarily due to the fair value remeasurement of cash flow hedging derivative instruments contracted pursuant to the central management of foreign exchange risk, recognized through equity (these instruments are recognized in "Other non-current assets" at June 30, 2014).

Operating receivables, comprising accounts and notes receivable, totaled €2,811 million at June 30, 2014 compared with €2,694 million at June 30, 2013 and €2,587 million at December 31, 2013. Accounts receivable net of advances from clients and amounts billed in advance totaled €2,049 million at June 30, 2014, compared with €1,993 million one year earlier and €1,800 million at December 31, 2013.

Accounts and notes payable, consisting mainly of accounts payable and related accounts, amounts due to employees and accrued taxes other than on income, totaled €2,189 million at June 30, 2014, compared with €2,078 million at June 30, 2013 and €2,293 million at December 31, 2013.

Consolidated net cash and cash equivalents totaled €205 million at June 30, 2014, compared with €272 million at June 30, 2013 and €678 million at December 31, 2013. The €473 million decrease in net cash and cash equivalents on December 31, 2013 chiefly reflects:

  • ► organic free cash flow, equal to cash flow from operations adjusted for acquisitions of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets (net of disposals) and flows relating to the net interest cost, of -€148 million;
  • ► the payment of dividends to shareholders for a total amount of €174 million;
  • ► the repurchase of treasury shares in the amount of €103 million.

RELATED PARTIES

No material transactions with related parties took place in the first-half 2014.

MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES FOR THE SECOND-HALF 2014

The nature and degree of risks to which the Group is exposed have not changed from those presented on pages 25 to 29 of the 2013 Registration Document.

Among these risks, developments in the economic environment and particularly the resulting impact on prices is the main factor likely to influence business in the second half.

OUTLOOK FOR FISCAL YEAR 2014

First-half performance supports the Group's annual guidance:

  • ► organic revenue growth of 2% to 4%,
  • ► an operating margin rate of between 8.8% and 9%,
  • ► organic free cash flow expected to exceed €500 million.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

Note 1 Accounting policies

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements and related notes for the half-year ended June 30, 2014 were drawn up under the responsibility of the Board of Directors and approved by the Board of Directors' meeting of July 30, 2014.

ACCOUNTING BASIS

A) IFRS standards-base

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the half-year ended June 30, 2014 have been prepared in accordance with lAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and endorsed by the European Union.

The Group also takes account of the positions adopted by Syntec Numérique – an organization representing major consulting and computer services companies in France - regarding the application of certain IFRS.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the half-year ended June 30, 2014 should be read in conjunction with the 2013 consolidated financial statements.

B) New standards and interpretations applicable in 2014

The accounting policies applied by the Capgemini group are unchanged on those applied for the preparation of the 2013 consolidated financial statements.

The standards, interpretations and amendments of mandatory application from January 1, 2014 did not have a material impact for the Group.

The Group did not elect to adopt early the standards, amendments, and interpretations published by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the European Union at June 30, 2014 or in effect at January 1, 2014.

Changes in the presentation of segment reporting decided by the Group

Growing demand from clients to group application development and maintenance services in a single contract led the Group to review the presentation of its segment reporting by business. The distinction between technology services, which include application development and outsourcing services, which include the maintenance activity, has therefore become artificial.

Accordingly, with effect from January 1, 2014, segment reporting by business is presented as follows:

  • ► Consulting Services, which help to enhance the performance of organizations based on in-depth knowledge of client industries and processes,
  • ► Local Professional Services, which provide assistance and support to internal IT teams within client companies,
  • ► Application Services, which devise, develop, implement and maintain IT applications covering the Group's system integration and application maintenance activities,
  • ► Other Managed Services, which integrate, manage and/or develop either fully or partially, client's IT Infrastructure systems (or that of a group of clients), transaction services, on demand services and/or business activities (Business Process Outsourcing, BPO).

Note 2 Changes in Group structure

During the first-half 2014, the Group finalized the acquisition of Euriware and its subsidiaries, previously owned by Areva and acquired Strategic Systems & Products Corp. in the United States.

o/w financial income 52 14 18
o/w financial expenses (107) (42) (44)
NET FINANCIAL EXPENSE (102) (53) (34)

The decrease in net finance costs is mainly due to the repurchase, conversion and redemption of the OCEANE bonds convertible/exchangeable into new or existing Cap Gemini shares (OCEANE 2009) at the end of 2013 (see Note 17, Net Cash and Cash Equivalents, to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013).

Note 7 Goodwill

The increase in goodwill over the period is chiefly attributable to positive translation adjustments on goodwill denominated in foreign currencies in the amount of €37 million.

The increase in short-term borrowings on December 31, 2013 mainly reflects the increase in short-term financing (€81 million), particularly in the parent company and certain of its subsidiaries in Brazil, China and Australia, as well as the accrued coupon not yet due on the 2011 bond issue (€13 million).

The €473 million decrease in net cash and cash equivalents during the first six months of 2014 on December 31, 2013 chiefly reflects:

  • organic free cash flow, equal to cash flow from operations adjusted for acquisitions of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets (net of disposals) and flows relating to the net interest cost, of (€148) million;
  • the payment of dividends to shareholders for a total amount of €174 million;
  • the repurchase of treasury shares in the amount of €103 million.

Net obligation at end of period 1,053 962 1,065

The change in the net obligation in the first-half 2014 is chiefly due to the net actuarial loss resulting from the decrease in discount rates in Canada and the United Kingdom between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014.

Note 11 Other non-current and current liabilities

At June 30, 2014, other non-current and current liabilities include primarily liabilities related to acquisitions of consolidated companies of €222 million (comprising €126 million in other non-current liabilities and €96 million in other current liabilities).
