New bookings for the quarter were $17.0 billion, a 10% increase in U.S. dollars and 15% in local currency from the third quarter last year, with consulting bookings of $9.1 billion and outsourcing bookings of $7.8 billion.

Business Outlook

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2022

Accenture expects revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 to be in the range of $15.0 billion to $15.5 billion, 20% to 24% growth in local currency, reflecting the company’s assumption of a negative 8% foreign-exchange impact compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Fiscal Year 2022

Accenture’s business outlook for the full 2022 fiscal year now assumes that the foreign-exchange impact on its results in U.S. dollars will be approximately negative 4.5% compared with fiscal 2021; the company previously expected a negative 3% foreign-exchange impact.

For fiscal 2022, the company now expects revenue growth to be in the range of 25.5% to 26.5% in local currency, compared with 24% to 26% previously.

Accenture continues to expect operating margin for the full fiscal year to be 15.2%, an expansion of 10 basis points from fiscal 2021.

The company now expects its annual effective tax rate to be in the range of 23.5% to 24.5%, compared with 23% to 25% previously.

The company now expects diluted EPS to be in the range of $10.61 to $10.70, an increase of 21% to 22% over adjusted FY21 diluted EPS of $8.80—which exclude gains on an investment of $0.36 from FY21 GAAP diluted EPS of $9.16. The company previously expected fiscal 2022 diluted EPS to be in the range of $10.61 to $10.81.

For fiscal 2022, the company continues to expect operating cash flow to be in the range of $8.7 billion to $9.2 billion; continues to expect property and equipment additions to be $700 million; and continues to expect free cash flow to be in the range of $8.0 billion to $8.5 billion.

The company continues to expect to return at least $6.5 billion in cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This news release includes certain non-GAAP financial information as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G. Pursuant to the requirements of this regulation, reconciliations of this non-GAAP financial information to Accenture’s financial statements as prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) are included in this press release. Financial results “in local currency” are calculated by restating current-period activity into U.S. dollars using the comparable prior-year period’s foreign-currency exchange rates. Accenture’s management believes providing investors with this information gives additional insights into Accenture’s results of operations. While Accenture’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures herein are useful in evaluating Accenture’s operations, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accenture provides full-year revenue guidance on a local-currency basis and not in U.S. dollars because the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations could vary significantly from the company’s stated assumptions.
