FIVE had a team of 157 operational employees as of the date of acquisition, based in Brooklyn, NY and Croatia. The majority of its people are based in delivery centers in Croatia’s four largest cities.
-
On April 1, 2021, Endava announced the acquisition of Levvel LLC, headquartered in Charlotte, NC (“Levvel”). Levvel is an award-winning U.S. technology strategy, consulting and engineering firm focused on helping companies create sophisticated technology through human-centered problem solving, rooted in deep industry expertise. Levvel has a strong focus in the Payments and Financial Services, Logistics/Mobility and TMT segments, and Endava expects the acquisition to enable it to continue to expand in the United States while serving clients in these core market sectors. Levvel delivers from the United States and Mexico and had 172 operational employees as of the date of acquisition, many of whom hold certifications, and maintains partnerships with key cloud platforms and leading and emerging technologies.
OUTLOOK:
At this time, the general economic environment remains fluid and it continues to be challenging to anticipate the ultimate full scope and duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Endava is providing guidance for the fourth quarter of its 2021 fiscal year and its full 2021 fiscal year based upon what it currently sees in its markets.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2021:
Endava expects revenues will be in the range £130.0 million to £132.0 million, representing constant currency revenue growth of between 51.0% and 53.0%. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of £0.34 to £0.36 per share.
Full Fiscal Year 2021:
Endava expects revenues will be in the range £443.0 million to £445.0 million, representing constant currency growth of between 29.0% and 30.0%. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of £1.22 to £1.24 per share.
The constant currency growth figure now quoted for the full fiscal year 2021 guidance still includes the proforma adjustment for the Worldpay Captive, which Endava sold in August 2019, as it remains in the full year comparative.
This above guidance for Q4 Fiscal Year 2021 and the Full Fiscal Year 2021 assumes the exchange rates at the end of April (when the exchange rate was 1 British Pound to 1.39 US Dollar and 1.15 Euro).
Endava is not able, at this time, to provide an outlook for IFRS diluted EPS for Q4 FY2021 or FY2021 because of the unreasonable effort of estimating on a forward-looking basis certain items that are excluded from adjusted diluted EPS, including, for example, share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets and foreign currency exchange (gains)/losses, the effect of which may be significant. Endava is also not able, at this time, to reconcile to an outlook for revenue growth not at constant currency because of the unreasonable effort of estimating foreign currency exchange gains/losses, the effect of which may be significant, on a forward-looking basis.
The guidance provided above is forward-looking in nature. Actual results may differ materially. See the cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” below.
CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS:
The Company will host a conference call at 8:00 am EDT today, May 19, 2021, to review its Q3 FY2021 results.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
To supplement Endava’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow presented in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses non-IFRS measures of certain components of financial performance. These measures include: revenue growth rate at constant currency, revenue growth at constant currency adjusted for the sale of Endava Technology SRL, also referred to as “the Worldpay Captive” to Worldpay on August 31, 2019, adjusted profit before tax, adjusted profit for the period, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow.
Revenue growth rate at constant currency is calculated by translating revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into British Pounds using the comparable foreign currency exchange rates from the prior period. For example, the average rates in effect for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020 were used to convert revenue for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 and the revenue for the comparable prior period.
Revenue growth at constant currency adjusted for the sale of the Worldpay Captive is revenue growth at constant currency adjusted to exclude the impact of the sale of the Worldpay Captive.
Adjusted profit before tax (“Adjusted PBT”) is defined as the Company’s profit before tax adjusted to exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense, discretionary EBT bonus, amortisation of acquired intangible assets, realised and unrealised foreign currency exchange gains and losses, and net gain on disposal of subsidiary. Share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets and unrealized foreign currency gains are non-cash expenses. Adjusted PBT margin is Adjusted PBT as a percentage of total revenue.
Adjusted profit for the period is defined as Adjusted PBT together with the tax impact of these adjustments.
Adjusted diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted profit for the period, divided by weighted average number of shares outstanding – diluted.
Adjusted free cash flow is the Company’s net cash from operating activities, plus grants received, less net purchases of non-current assets (tangible and intangible).
Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in the Company’s business and uses the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing the Company’s business and evaluating its performance. Management also believes the presentation of its non-IFRS financial measures enhances an investor’s overall understanding of the Company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS, and its non-IFRS measures may be different from non-IFRS measures used by other companies. Investors should review the reconciliation of the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures to the comparable IFRS financial measures included below, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
