NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share data and as otherwise disclosed) 
 
1.ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES    
EPAM Systems, Inc. (the “Company” or “EPAM”) is a leading digital transformation services and product engineering company, providing digital platform engineering and software development services to clients across six continents. In a business landscape that is constantly challenged by the pressures of digitization, EPAM focuses on building long-term partnerships with clients in various industries through delivery of innovative and scalable software solutions, integrated strategy, experience and technology consulting, and a continually evolving mix of advanced capabilities. The Company is incorporated in Delaware with headquarters in Newtown, Pennsylvania.
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of EPAM have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of EPAM Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries with all intercompany balances and transactions eliminated.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected to occur for the entire year. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2024 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods presented.
Risks and Uncertainties — As a result of its global operations, the Company may be subject to certain inherent risks.
Concentration of Credit — Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and trade receivables. The Company maintains cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments with financial institutions. The Company believes its credit policies reflect normal industry terms and business risk and there is no expectation of non-performance by the counterparties.
The Company has cash in several countries, including Ukraine and Belarus, where the banking sector remains subject to periodic instability; banking and other financial systems generally do not meet the banking standards of more developed markets; and bank deposits made by corporate entities are not insured. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $57.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in banks in Ukraine and $31.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in banks in Belarus. Cash in Ukraine and Belarus is used for the operational needs of the local entities and cash balances change with the expected operating needs of these entities. The Company regularly monitors cash held in these countries and, to the extent the cash held exceeds amounts required to support its operations in these countries, the Company distributes the excess funds into markets with more developed banking sectors to the extent it is possible to do so. In April 2024, Belarus instituted new restrictions on distributing dividends from Belarus to shareholders in certain countries, including the U.S. The restrictions are initially scheduled to remain in place until the end of 2025 and may prevent EPAM from distributing excess funds, if any, out of Belarus. The Company does not expect these new restrictions to have a material impact on its ability to meet its worldwide cash obligations during this period. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions considered stable in the region, limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution and conducts ongoing evaluations of the credit worthiness of the financial institutions with which it does business. However, a banking crisis, bankruptcy or insolvency of banks that process or hold the Company’s funds, or sanctions may result in the loss of deposits or adversely affect the Company’s ability to complete banking transactions, which could adversely affect the Company’s business and financial condition.
Trade receivables are generally dispersed across many clients operating in different industries; therefore, concentration of credit risk is limited. Historically, credit losses and write-offs of trade receivables have not been material to the consolidated financial statements. If the Company’s clients enter bankruptcy protection or otherwise take steps to alleviate their financial distress, the Company’s credit losses and write-offs of trade receivables could increase, which would negatively impact its results of operations.

Foreign currency risk — The Company’s global operations are conducted predominantly in U.S. dollars. Other than U.S. dollars, the Company generates revenues in various currencies, principally, euros, British pounds, Swiss francs and Canadian dollars and incurs expenditures principally in euros, Polish zlotys, Indian rupees, British pounds, Swiss francs, Hungarian forints, Mexican pesos, Canadian dollars, Colombian pesos, Armenian drams and Chinese yuan renminbi. The Company’s international operations expose it to risk of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through the remeasurement of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (both third-party and intercompany) and translation of earnings and cash flows into U.S. dollars. The Company has a hedging program whereby it enters into a series of foreign exchange forward contracts with durations of twelve months or less that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted Polish zloty, Indian rupee and Hungarian forint transactions. See Note 6 “Derivative Financial Instruments for further information on the Company’s hedging program.
Interest rate risk — The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. Exposure to interest rate risk results primarily from variable rates related to cash and cash equivalent deposits, short-term investments and the Company’s borrowings, mainly under the 2021 Credit Agreement, which is subject to a variety of rates depending on the type and timing of funds borrowed (See Note 8 “Debt”). The Company does not believe it is exposed to material direct risks associated with changes in interest rates related to these deposits, investments and borrowings.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
There were no recently adopted accounting standards which had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Pending Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that the Company will adopt according to the various timetables the FASB specifies. Unless otherwise discussed below, the Company believes the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there have been no material updates regarding pending accounting standards as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
2.    IMPACT OF THE INVASION OF UKRAINE
On February 24, 2022, Russian forces attacked Ukraine and its people, and through the issuance date of these interim financial statements, there has been no resolution to this attack. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $60.8 million of Property and equipment, net in Ukraine consisting of a building classified as construction-in-progress located in Kyiv with a net book value of $51.7 million, laptops with a net book value of $4.5 million, most of which are in the possession of employees, various office furniture, equipment and supplies with a net book value of $3.8 million, and leasehold improvements located throughout Ukraine with a net book value of $0.8 million. Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, the Company had Operating lease right-of-use assets located throughout Ukraine with a net book value of $5.5 million. Through the issuance date of these interim financial statements, the Company is not aware of any damage to its long-lived assets in Ukraine and the Company expects to continue to use these assets as part of its global delivery model.
On March 4, 2022, the Company announced a $100.0 million humanitarian commitment to support its employees and their families in and displaced from Ukraine. This humanitarian commitment is in addition to donations from EPAM's clients and employees and the work of EPAM volunteers on the ground. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company expensed $3.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively, related to this commitment, which included special cash payments to support impacted employees, financial and medical support for impacted families, travel, meals and lodging expenses, and donations to third-party humanitarian organizations. Of the expensed amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $0.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, is classified in Cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), and $2.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively, is classified in Selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has $34.5 million remaining to be expensed under this humanitarian commitment.

10

Following the invasion, the Company executed its business continuity plans to assist relocating employees residing in Ukraine and the surrounding region, who were impacted by the war and geopolitical uncertainty, to other countries and to assign delivery personnel in locations outside of the region to serve in unbilled standby or backup capacities to ensure the continuity of delivery for its clients who have substantial delivery exposure to Ukraine or other delivery concerns resulting from the invasion and ongoing war. In addition to costs incurred as part of EPAM’s humanitarian commitment to Ukraine, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred no expenses related to the standby resources and incurred expenses of $0.7 million related to its geographic repositioning efforts, classified as Selling, general and administrative expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company incurred expenses of $7.4 million related to the standby resources, classified as Cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) and $0.2 million related to its geographic repositioning efforts, classified as Selling, general and administrative expenses.
3.ACQUISITIONS
2023 Acquisitions — During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company completed two acquisitions with a total purchase price of $42.6 million including contingent consideration with acquisition-date fair value of $14.9 million. These acquisitions expanded EPAM’s capabilities in software design and product development, as well as added $13.9 million of intangible assets, consisting of customer relationships. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of these acquisitions on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements was not material.
2024 Acquisitions - During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company completed two acquisitions with a total purchase price of $53.7 million including contingent consideration with acquisition-date fair value of $7.3 million. These acquisitions expanded EPAM’s geographical reach across Latin America and Europe, as well as added $16.6 million of intangible assets, consisting mainly of customer relationships. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of these acquisitions on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements was not material.

$23,398 $ $248 $23,150 
The foreign exchange derivatives are valued using pricing models and discounted cash flow methodologies based on observable foreign exchange data at the measurement date. See Note 6 “Derivative Financial Instruments” in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for additional information regarding derivative financial instruments.
The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a probability-weighted expected return method and is based on the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired businesses in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. Although there is significant judgment involved, the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable. In determining fair value, the Company considered a variety of factors, including future performance of the acquired businesses using financial projections developed by the Company and market risk assumptions that were derived for revenue growth and earnings before interest and taxes. The Company estimated future payments using the earnout formula and performance targets specified in the purchase agreements and adjusted those estimates to reflect the probability of their achievement. Those weighted-average estimated future payments were then discounted to present value using a rate based on the weighted-average cost of capital of guideline companies. The discount rates used to determine the fair value of contingent consideration for the 2024 Acquisitions ranged from a minimum of 12% to a maximum of 20%. The discount rate used to determine the fair value of contingent consideration for the 2023 Acquisitions was 16.0%. Changes in financial projections, market risk assumptions, discount rates or probability assumptions related to achieving the various earnout criteria would result in a change in the fair value of the recorded contingent liabilities. Such changes, if any, are recorded within Interest and other income, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of Level 3 contingent consideration liabilities using significant unobservable inputs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 is as follows:

Non-Marketable Securities Without Readily Determinable Fair Values
The Company holds investments in equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. These investments are recorded at cost and are remeasured to fair value based on certain observable price changes or impairment events as they occur. The carrying amount of these investments was $31.9 million and $31.7 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is classified as Other noncurrent assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
6.DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company has a hedging program whereby it enters into a series of foreign exchange forward contracts with durations of twelve months or less that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted Polish zloty, Indian rupee and Hungarian forint transactions.
As of March 31, 2024, all of the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts were designated as hedges and there is no financial collateral (including cash collateral) required to be posted by the Company related to the foreign exchange forward contracts.

7.LEASES
The Company leases office space, corporate apartments, office equipment, and vehicles. Many of the Company’s leases contain variable payments including changes in base rent and charges for common area maintenance or other miscellaneous expenses. Due to this variability, the cash flows associated with these variable payments are not included in the minimum lease payments used in determining the right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for such payments is incurred. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 0.1 to 7.8 years. Certain lease agreements, mainly for office space, include options to extend or terminate the lease before the expiration date. The Company considers such options when determining the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company leases and subleases a portion of its office space to third parties. Lease income and sublease income were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the components of lease cost were as follows:

8.DEBT
Revolving Credit Facility — On October 21, 2021, the Company replaced its 2017 credit facility with a new unsecured credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association; PNC Capital Markets LLC; Citibank N.A.; Wells Fargo Bank, National Association; Santander Bank, N.A.; and Raiffeisen Bank International AG (collectively the “Lenders”). The 2021 Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “2021 Revolving Facility”) with a borrowing capacity of $700.0 million, with the potential to increase the borrowing capacity up to $1.000 billion if certain conditions are met. The 2021 Credit Agreement matures on October 21, 2026.
Borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Facility may be denominated in U.S. dollars or up to a maximum of $150.0 million equivalent in British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars, euros or Swiss francs and other currencies as may be approved by the administrative agent and the Lenders. Borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Facility bear interest at either a base rate or Euro-rate plus a margin based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The base rate is equal to the highest of (a) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate, plus 0.5%, (b) the Prime Rate, or (c) the Daily Simple SOFR Rate, plus 1.0%, so long as the Daily Simple SOFR Rate is offered, ascertainable and not unlawful. As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s outstanding borrowings are subject to a SOFR-based interest rate, which resets regularly at issuance, based on lending terms.
The 2021 Credit Agreement includes customary business and financial covenants that may restrict the Company’s ability to make or pay dividends (other than certain intercompany dividends) if a potential or an actual event of default has occurred or would be triggered. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the 2021 Credit Agreement.
The following table presents the outstanding debt and borrowing capacity of the Company under the 2021 Credit Agreement:

9.COST OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM
During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company initiated a Cost Optimization Program to streamline operations and optimize corporate functions. This program is expected to include workforce reduction and closure of underutilized facilities.
15

The total costs related to the Cost Optimization Program are classified in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company did not allocate these charges to individual segments as they are not considered by the chief operating decision maker during the review of segment results. Accordingly, such expenses are presented in our segment reporting as part of “Other unallocated expenses” (See Note 15 “Segment Information”).
Activity in the Company’s restructuring reserves was as follows:
Balance at December 31, 2023ChargesPayments MadeBalance at March 31, 2024
2023 Cost Optimization Program
Employee separation costs $6,966 $7,017 $(11,326)$2,657 
Total $6,966 $7,017 $(11,326)$2,657 

The Company expects to complete all restructuring actions commenced during the year ended December 31, 2023 by the end of the first half of 2024 and to incur additional charges of approximately $3.0 million related primarily to employee severance. The actual amount and timing of severance and other costs are dependent in part upon local country consultation processes and regulations and may differ from our current expectations and estimates.

Contract liabilities included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities$34,390 $27,988 
Contract liabilities included in Other noncurrent liabilities$496 $951 
Contract assets comprise amounts where the Company’s right to bill is contingent on something other than the passage of time such as achievement of contractual milestones. Contract assets have increased from December 31, 2023 primarily due to contracts where the Company’s right to bill is contingent upon achievement of contractual milestones. Contract liabilities comprise amounts collected from the Company’s clients for revenues not yet earned and such amounts are anticipated to be recorded as revenues when services are performed in subsequent periods. Contract liabilities have increased from December 31, 2023 primarily due to higher levels of advance collections.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $12.1 million of revenues that were included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities at December 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized $19.2 million of revenues that were included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities at December 31, 2022.

The financial performance targets will be set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the beginning of each year. For the portion of the awards subject to market conditions, fair value was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The portion of the awards associated with financial performance in future years where the financial performance targets have not yet been determined are not considered granted for accounting purposes and there were 32 thousand of such awards as of March 31, 2024.

2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") enables eligible employees to purchase shares of EPAM’s common stock at a discount at the end of each designated offering period, which occurs every six months ending April 30th and October 31st. The purchase price is equal to 85% of the fair market value of a share of EPAM’s common stock on the first date of an offering or the date of purchase, whichever is lower. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, no purchases of common stock have been made under the ESPP.
The Company recognizes compensation expense related to share issuances pursuant to the ESPP on a straight-line basis over the six-month offering period. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $2.7 million of stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized $3.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP. As of March 31, 2024, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to the ESPP was $0.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 0.1 years.
Commitments for Future Equity Awards
In connection with the Company’s acquisitions of businesses as discussed in Note 3 “Acquisitions,” EPAM enters into agreements that contractually commit it to granting equity awards at future dates. The agreements are unique to each acquisition and terms vary, including specifying either the number of future awards to be issued or a monetary value that will be settled with equity awards valued at future stock prices.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company has commitments to grant up to $15.1 million of equity awards with the number of awards to be determined based on future stock prices. Additionally, these awards contain performance criteria that will determine the number of future awards to be issued and there is a service-based vesting requirement after the grant date associated with these awards. As these awards are considered granted for accounting purposes, in determining the expense, the Company adjusts the expected settlement based on the probability of achievement of the performance criteria. Related to these awards, the amount of stock-based compensation expense recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was not material.
Share Repurchases
On February 13, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $500.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. EPAM may repurchase shares of its common stock on a discretionary basis from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The timing and total amount of stock repurchases will depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices, and other considerations. The share repurchase program has a term of 24 months, may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the company to acquire any amount of common stock.
Share repurchase activity during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
20242023
Number of shares of common stock repurchased396 30 
Total cost of repurchases$120,593 $8,510 
As of March 31, 2024, a remaining balance of $214.5 million was available for purchases of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors.


12.INCOME TAXES
In determining its interim provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual profit before tax, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

21

The Company’s worldwide effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was 6.0% and 19.6%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate benefited from excess tax benefits recorded upon vesting or exercise of stock-based awards of $20.9 million and $6.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate benefited from the recognition of one-time benefits of $2.3 million, resulting from the Company’s decision to change the tax status and to classify certain of its foreign subsidiaries as disregarded entities for U.S. income tax purposes, and $1.7 million resulting from the reversal of a reserve for an uncertain tax position.
13.EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of computing basic earnings per share, any unvested shares of restricted stock that have been issued by the Company and are contingently returnable to the Company are excluded from the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, unvested restricted stock, unvested equity-settled RSUs and the stock to be issued under the Company’s ESPP. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock as follows:
 Three Months Ended

The number of shares underlying equity-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive was 363 thousand and 260 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
14.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Indemnification Obligations  In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to a variety of agreements under which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party for certain matters. These obligations typically arise in contracts where the Company customarily agrees to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants for certain matters, infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, data privacy violations, and certain tortious conduct in the course of providing services. The duration of these indemnifications varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite.

22

The Company is unable to reasonably estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the unique facts and circumstances of each agreement and the fact that certain indemnifications provide for no limitation to the maximum potential future payments under the indemnification. Management is not aware of any such matters that would have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Litigation — From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation, claims or other contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When a material loss contingency is reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and the amount of the claim, and an estimate of the loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can be made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. In the opinion of management, the outcome of any existing claims and legal or regulatory proceedings, if decided adversely, is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Ukraine Humanitarian Commitment — On March 4, 2022, EPAM announced that it has established a $100.0 million humanitarian commitment to support its employees in Ukraine and their families. See Note 2 “Impact of the Invasion of Ukraine” for more information regarding commitment to humanitarian aid for Ukraine.

Deferred Consideration — During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company purchased software licenses for use in the regular course of business in exchange for an upfront payment and fixed, subsequent annual payments due over the next 4 years. This agreement was modified during the year ended December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, the undiscounted deferred consideration amounts owed totaled approximately $49.7 million and are expected to be paid as follows: $16.6 million during the remainder of 2024, $16.6 million in 2025, and $16.5 million in 2026.
Contractual Commitment — On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a 5-year agreement for cloud services through which it committed to spending at least $75.0 million over the term of the agreement. The Company has the ability to cancel the commitment whereby it would incur a cancellation penalty of 20% of the remaining contractual commitment.

15.SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines its business segments and reports segment information in accordance with how the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) organizes the segments to evaluate performance, allocate resources and make business decisions. Segment results are based on the segment’s revenues and operating profit, where segment operating profit is defined as income from operations before unallocated costs. Expenses included in segment operating profit consist principally of direct selling and delivery costs as well as an allocation of certain shared services expenses. Certain corporate expenses are not allocated to specific segments as these expenses are not controllable at the segment level. Such expenses include certain types of professional fees, certain taxes included in operating expenses, compensation to non-employee directors and certain other general and administrative expenses, including compensation of specific groups of non-production employees. In addition, the Company does not allocate amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related costs and certain other one-time charges and benefits. These unallocated amounts are combined with total segment operating profit to arrive at consolidated income from operations as reported below in the reconciliation of segment operating profit to consolidated income before provision for income taxes. Additionally, management has determined that it is not practical to allocate identifiable assets by segment since such assets are used interchangeably among the segments.
The Company manages its business primarily based on the managerial responsibility for its client base and market. As managerial responsibility for a particular client relationship generally correlates with the client’s geographic location, there is a high degree of similarity between client locations and the geographic boundaries of the Company’s reportable segments. In some cases, managerial responsibility for a particular client is assigned to a management team in another region and is usually based on the strength of the relationship between client executives and particular members of EPAM’s senior management team. In such cases, the client’s activity would be reported through the management team’s reportable segment.
On July 26, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its remaining holdings in Russia to a third party. As a result of this sale, the Company no longer has operations associated with this segment.

Business Update Regarding the War in Ukraine
On February 24, 2022, Russian forces attacked Ukraine and its people and EPAM has repeatedly called for an immediate end to this unlawful and unconscionable attack. EPAM’s highest priority is the safety and security of its employees and their families in Ukraine as well as in the broader region, and we have continued to support relocating our employees to lower risk locations, both in Ukraine and to other countries where we operate. The vast majority of our Ukraine employees are in safe locations and operating at levels of productivity consistent with those achieved prior to the attack. As of March 31, 2024, Ukraine continues to be our largest delivery location with the most delivery professionals. Furthermore, we have maintained our $100 million humanitarian aid commitment to our people in Ukraine in addition to our other donations and volunteer efforts.

27

The impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on our operations, personnel, and physical assets in Ukraine has had, and, along with any escalation of the war that includes Belarus’ territory or military, could continue to have a material adverse effect on our operations. Actions taken by other countries, including new and stricter sanctions by Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, the U.S. and other companies and organizations against officials, individuals, regions, and industries in Belarus, and Belarus’ responses to those sanctions, including counter-sanctions and other actions, have had and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our operations. Clients have and may continue to seek altered terms, conditions, and delivery locations for the performance of services, delay planned work or seek services from alternate providers, or suspend, terminate, fail to renew, or reduce existing contracts or services, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Some of our clients have implemented steps to block internet communications with Ukraine and Belarus to protect against potential cyberattacks or other information security threats, which has caused a material adverse effect on our ability to deliver our services to these clients from those locations. Such material adverse effects disrupt our delivery of services, cause us to shift all or portions of our work occurring in the region to other countries, restrict our ability to engage in certain projects in the region and serve certain clients in or from the region, and could negatively impact our personnel, operations, financial results and business outlook. Our Board of Directors continues its oversight of our strategic, geopolitical, and cybersecurity risks and the risks related to our geographic expansion. Our Board has received updates from management during both regular and special meetings, while also providing oversight of the risks associated with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and other strategic areas of importance related to the war.
Moving Forward
We continue to execute our business continuity plans and adapt to developments as they occur to protect the safety of our people and address impacts on our delivery infrastructure, including reallocating work to other geographies within our global footprint. We have engaged both our personnel and our clients to meet their needs while mitigating delivery challenges. EPAM continues to operate productively in more than 55 countries and provides consistent high-quality delivery to our clients. Our global delivery centers have sufficient resources, including infrastructure and capital, to support ongoing operations. We continue to rapidly respond to the difficult conditions in Ukraine while maintaining a focus on our clients and long-term growth.
In previous years after the invasion, implementation and execution of our business continuity plans, relocation costs, our humanitarian commitment to our people in Ukraine, and the cost of our phased exit from Russia resulted in materially increased expenses and some of these expenses continued during this quarter and we expect some of those expenses will continue to occur in subsequent quarters for some time in the future.
We have no way to predict the progress or outcome of the war in Ukraine because the conflict and government reactions change quickly and are beyond our control. Prolonged military activities, broad-based sanctions and counter-sanctions, or escalation of the war that includes Belarus’ territory or military could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. The information contained in this section is accurate as of the date hereof but may become outdated due to changing circumstances beyond our control or present awareness. For additional information on the various risks posed by the attack against Ukraine and the impact in the region as well as other risks to our business, please read “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this quarterly report.
Year-to-Date 2024 Developments and Trends
Our business continues to be disrupted by the war in Ukraine which has created and continues to create uncertainties through March 31, 2024 and beyond. In addition, our business and operating results were negatively impacted in the first three months of 2024 by uneven demand for our services as our clients took action to reduce their spending on information technology services. For the first three months of 2024, our revenues were $1.165 billion, a decrease of 3.8% from $1.211 billion reported for the same period of 2023. Income from operations as a percentage of revenues decreased to 9.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to 9.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, largely driven by an increase in compensation costs including stock-based compensation expense as a percentage of revenues, partially offset by a decrease in expenses associated with the geographic repositioning of our workforce and humanitarian efforts for Ukraine.
28

Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a recurring basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition and related allowances, impairments of long-lived assets including intangible assets, goodwill and right-of-use assets, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. In addition, our reported financial condition and results of operations could vary due to a change in the application of a particular accounting standard.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Results of Operations
The following table sets forth a summary of our consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated. This information should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report. The operating results in any period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period.

Consolidated Results Review
Revenues
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, our total revenues decreased by 3.8% to $1.165 billion compared to the corresponding period in 2023. Revenues have been negatively impacted by reduced demand for our services as our clients took action to reduce spending and as a result of the sale of our remaining holdings in Russia in the third quarter of 2023, and positively impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates which offset our revenue decline by 0.5% during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period last year.

Revenues by client location for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

(2)EMEA includes revenues from clients in Western Europe and the Middle East.
(3)APAC includes revenues from clients in East Asia, Southeast Asia and Australia.
(4)CEE includes revenues from clients in Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. As a result of the sale of the Company’s remaining holdings in Russia to a third-party on July 26, 2023, revenues from the CEE region are no longer material. Beginning in 2024, revenues from the CEE region are included in the EMEA region.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the United States continued to be our largest client location. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues in the United States decreased 1.8% to $667.1 million from $679.4 million in the first quarter of 2023, largely due to reduced spending at certain large accounts and generally slower growth in revenues across a range of clients in the region.
The top three revenue contributing client location countries in EMEA were the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the Netherlands, generating $135.9 million, $98.4 million and $51.7 million in revenues, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Revenues from clients in these three countries were $155.3 million, $89.9 million, and $59.1 million, respectively, in the corresponding period last year. Revenues in the EMEA region were negatively impacted by reduced spending at certain large accounts and were positively impacted by the strengthening of the euro, the British pound and Swiss franc relative to the U.S. dollar during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in the previous year.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues from clients in the APAC region comprised 2.0% of total revenues, a level consistent with the same period in the previous year.
Cost of Revenues (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization)
The principal components of our cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) are salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits, stock-based compensation, and project-related travel costs for our delivery professionals and fees for subcontractors who are assigned to client projects. Salaries and other compensation expenses of our delivery professionals are reported as cost of revenues regardless of whether the employees are actually performing services for clients during a given period. Our employees are a critical asset, necessary for our continued success and, therefore, we are continuously exploring new geographies, markets, and sources to locate talented personnel and present them with competitive compensation programs and educational opportunities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was $834.3 million representing a decrease of 2.5% from $855.9 million in the corresponding period of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in compensation costs other than stock-based compensation expense largely attributable to the 9.2% decrease in the average number of production professionals which reflects the impact from the Cost Optimization Program initiated in the third quarter of 2023. See Note 9 “Cost Optimization Program” for more information regarding the Company’s restructuring program. Other drivers that contributed to the year-over-year decrease were a decline in costs associated with our humanitarian efforts for Ukraine of $1.8 million and our unbilled business continuity resources of $7.4 million. The decreases were partially offset by higher expenses due to a $6.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and the negative impact from the appreciation of foreign currencies in certain of our delivery locations.
Expressed as a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was 71.6% and 70.7% in the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The year-over-year increase in the first quarter of 2024 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year is primarily due to a $6.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and the negative impact from the appreciation of foreign currencies in certain of our delivery locations.
30

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses represent expenditures associated with promoting and selling our services and general and administrative functions of our business. These expenses include the costs of salaries, bonuses, fringe benefits, stock-based compensation, severance, bad debt, travel, legal and accounting services, insurance, facilities including operating leases, advertising, and other promotional activities. Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses contain costs of relocating our employees and various one-time and unusual expenses such as impairment charges.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses were $198.5 million representing a 6.3% decrease as compared to $211.9 million in the corresponding period of 2023. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by a $9.2 million decrease in personnel-related costs resulting from a decrease in headcount which reflects the impact from the Cost Optimization Program initiated in the third quarter of 2023, partially offset by the impacts from salary increases and promotions for existing professionals. See Note 9 “Cost Optimization Program” for more information regarding the Company’s restructuring program. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the quarter also benefited from a $2.4 million reduction in facilities and infrastructure expenses and a $1.6 million decrease in bad debt expense as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year.
Expressed as a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 0.5% to 17.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period from the prior year, primarily driven by the decrease in personnel-related costs.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, depreciation and amortization expense was $22.1 million as compared to $22.8 million in the corresponding period last year. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily the result of lower depreciation on furniture, fixtures, other equipment and computer hardware, partially offset by increased depreciation on software licenses and increased amortization of acquired finite-lived intangible assets. Expressed as a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent at 1.9% during both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
Interest and Other Income, Net
Interest and other income, net includes interest earned on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, gains and losses from certain financial instruments, interest expense related to our borrowings, government grant income, and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration. Interest and other income, net increased from $11.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $15.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. This increase in Interest and other income, net during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023 was largely driven by a $7.1 million increase in interest income from our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, driven by improved interest rates, partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in loss due to the change in fair value of contingent consideration and a $2.8 million decrease in government grant income.
Foreign Exchange Loss
For discussion of the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations see “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”
Provision for Income Taxes
In determining its interim provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual profit before tax, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.
Determining the consolidated provision for income tax expense, deferred income tax assets and liabilities and any potential related valuation allowances involves judgment. We consider factors that may contribute, favorably or unfavorably, to the overall effective tax rate in the current year as well as the future. These factors include statutory tax rates and tax law changes in the countries where we operate and excess tax benefits upon vesting or exercise of equity awards as well as consideration of any significant or unusual items.


31

Our effective tax rate was 6.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 19.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate in the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, is primarily attributable to higher excess tax benefits recorded upon vesting or exercise of stock-based awards in the current period. Excess tax benefits recorded upon vesting or exercise of stock-based awards were $20.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $6.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 the Company’s effective tax rate benefited from the recognition of one-time benefits of $2.3 million, resulting from our decision to change the tax status and to classify certain of its foreign subsidiaries as disregarded entities for U.S. income tax purposes, and $1.7 million resulting from the reversal of a reserve for an uncertain tax position.
Results by Business Segment
Our operations have historically consisted of three reportable segments: North America, Europe, and Russia. On July 26, 2023, we completed the sale of our remaining holdings in Russia to a third party. As a result of this sale, we no longer have operations associated with the Russia segment. The segments represent components of EPAM for which separate financial information is available and used on a regular basis by our chief executive officer, who is also our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), to determine how to allocate resources and evaluate performance. Our CODM makes business decisions based on segment revenues and operating profit. Segment operating profit is defined as income from operations before unallocated costs. Expenses included in segment operating profit consist principally of direct selling and delivery costs as well as an allocation of certain shared services expenses. Certain corporate expenses are not allocated to specific segments as these expenses are not controllable at the segment level. Such expenses include certain types of professional fees, certain taxes included in operating expenses, compensation to non-employee directors and certain other general and administrative expenses, including compensation of specific groups of non-production employees. In addition, the Company does not allocate stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, goodwill and other asset impairment charges, acquisition-related costs and certain other one-time charges and benefits. These unallocated amounts are combined with total segment operating profit to arrive at consolidated income from operations.
We manage our business primarily based on the managerial responsibility for the client base and market. As managerial responsibility for a particular client relationship generally correlates with the client’s geographic location, there is a high degree of similarity between client locations and the geographic boundaries of our reportable segments. In some cases, managerial responsibility for a particular client is assigned to a management team in another region and is usually based on the strength of the relationship between client executives and particular members of EPAM’s senior management team. In such cases, the client’s activity would be reported through the respective management team member’s reportable segment. Our Europe segment includes our business in the APAC region, which is managed by the same management team.
Revenues from external clients and operating profit/(loss), before unallocated expenses, by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

North America Segment
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues for the North America segment decreased $5.2 million, or 0.7%, compared to the same period last year and segment operating profit decreased $2.2 million, or 1.8%, compared to the same period last year. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues from our North America segment were 60.5% of total segment revenues, an increase from 58.6% reported in the corresponding period of 2023. As a percentage of North America segment revenues, the North America segment’s operating profit margin decreased to 17.1% during the first quarter of 2024 from 17.3% in the first quarter of 2023, mainly impacted by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year, Software & Hi-Tech remained the largest industry vertical in the North America segment, which was a result of the continued focus on engaging with our technology clients. However, a reduction in revenues from a former top 20 client and overall declines in the technology sector in the U.S. during 2023 impacted the revenues in this vertical. Financial Services declined 13.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2024 largely impacted by fluctuations in demand from a group of wealth management and insurance clients. Consumer Goods, Retail & Travel declined 4.8% during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to declines from clients in the retail industry, partially offset by growth from our travel clients. Business Information & Media declined 8.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to decline in demand from clients in the information services and credit reporting sectors. Life Sciences & Healthcare grew 26.0% during the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to increased demand from pharmaceutical and medical device companies as well as an addition of a new healthcare client in the past 12 months. Emerging Verticals grew 26.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to growth from various clients in industries such as energy, education, telecommunications, industrial materials and professional services.
Europe Segment
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Europe’s segment revenues were $460.7 million, representing a decrease of $32.4 million, or 6.6%, from the same period last year. Revenues were positively impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the first quarter of 2024 and had our Europe segment revenues been expressed in constant currency terms using the exchange rates in effect during the first quarter of 2023, we would have reported a revenue decline of 8.0%. Europe’s segment revenues accounted for 39.5% and 40.7% of total segment revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the first quarter of 2024, the segment’s operating profit increased 1.0% to $60.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2023. Expressed as a percentage of revenues, Europe’s segment operating profit increased to 13.1% compared to 12.1% in the same period of the prior year. The increase was positively impacted by higher utilization during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year, Consumer Goods, Retail & Travel remained the largest industry vertical in the Europe segment. However, revenues in this vertical declined 7.6%, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding period in 2023 primarily due to decreased demand from clients in the retail and consumer goods industries. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues in Financial Services decreased 4.2% primarily driven by decreased revenues from commercial banking, investment banking and payment processing clients, partially offset by increased revenues from insurance clients as well as clients who provide other financial services. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenues in Business Information & Media decreased 26.1% primarily due to decreased demand from two clients who were historically included in our top 10 clients. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the 4.0% increase in revenues in the Software & Hi-Tech vertical was largely attributable to the expansion of services provided to one of our top 10 clients. Revenues in Life Sciences & Healthcare increased 27.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2024 with growth experienced from clients in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors. Revenues in Emerging Verticals increased 1.7% during the three months ended March 31, 2024 with growth experienced from clients in the energy industry and a client that was previously reported under the Russia segment, partially offset by declines from clients in the professional services industry.
Russia Segment
On July 26, 2023, we completed the sale of our remaining holdings in Russia to a third party. As a result of this sale, we no longer have operations associated with this segment.


Effects of Inflation
Economies in many countries where we operate have periodically experienced high rates of inflation. Periods of higher inflation may affect various economic sectors in those countries and increase our cost of doing business there. We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition to date. We continue to track the impact of inflation, particularly on wages, while attempting to minimize its effects through pricing and cost management strategies. A higher-than-normal rate of inflation in the future could adversely affect our operations and financial condition. For a discussion of our potential risks and uncertainties, including those related to inflation, see “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources
Our cash generated from operations has been our primary source of liquidity to fund operations, investments to support the growth of our business and share repurchases. As of March 31, 2024, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents totaling $1.984 billion, short-term investments totaling $61.6 million as well as $675.0 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. See Note 8 “Debt” of our condensed consolidated financial statements in “Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited)” for information regarding our debt.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period$1,990,397 $1,752,005 
Operating Activities
Our largest source of cash provided by operating activities is cash generated from our professional services that we provide to our clients. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities include compensation to our employees and related costs, payments for leased facilities, various general corporate expenditures and income tax payments. Since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, our operating activities included using cash on humanitarian efforts for Ukraine and geographic repositioning of our workforce.
Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the Company's cash collections from client contracts, which was partially offset by variable compensation payments and other operating outflows. The first three months of 2024 were positively impacted by lower payments for variable compensation as compared to the first three months of 2023 attributable to a lower level of financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2023 and were negatively impacted by an increase in days sales outstanding compared to a decrease in days sales outstanding during the first three months of 2023. Cash provided by operating activities in the corresponding period of 2023 was primarily driven by the Company's cash collections from client contracts, which were partially offset by variable compensation payments and EPAM’s humanitarian efforts for Ukraine and geographic repositioning.
Investing Activities
Our primary uses of cash from investing activities consist of purchases of computer hardware, software and office equipment, as well as investments into office buildings and new businesses. We also use cash for short-term investments and time deposits, and receive cash upon maturity of these deposits. Most of our investments are typically short-term and cash equivalent in nature but we may invest in longer term deposits if the terms are favorable. The cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to $6.7 million used for capital expenditures and $44.1 million used for the acquisitions of businesses, net of cash acquired. The cash used in investing activities during the same period in 2023 was primarily attributable to $7.9 million used for capital expenditures and no cash was used for the acquisitions of businesses in the corresponding period of 2023.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities mainly consists of repurchasing shares of EPAM common stock under a share repurchase program announced in 2023, payments of withholding taxes related to net share settlements of restricted stock units, repayments of debt, and settlements of the acquisition-date fair value of contingent consideration related to acquisitions of businesses. Cash provided by financing activities mainly consists of the proceeds from the purchases of shares under our ESPP and exercises of stock options issued under our long-term incentive plans as well as proceeds from debt. We typically do not rely on debt to supplement our cash flows. During the first three months of 2024 our main use of cash from financing activities consisted of $120.6 million of payments to repurchase our common stock, compared to $8.5 million in the corresponding period of 2023. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash received from the exercises of stock options issued under our long-term incentive plans of $14.6 million in the first three months of 2024, compared to $2.5 million received in the corresponding period of 2023.
35

Future Capital Requirements
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, combined with our expected cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to meet our projected operating and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months and that we possess the financial flexibility to execute our strategic objectives, including the ability to make acquisitions and strategic investments in the foreseeable future. However, the invasion of Ukraine, other various geopolitical events, and the related measures to contain their impact have caused and may continue to cause material disruptions in financial markets and economies. These disruptions may increase our costs of capital, decrease returns on investment, and otherwise adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
Our ability to generate cash is subject to our performance, general economic conditions, industry trends and other factors including the impact of the invasion of Ukraine, as described elsewhere in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We may require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. To the extent that existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and operating cash flows are insufficient to fund our future activities and requirements, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. If we issue equity securities in order to raise additional funds, substantial dilution to existing stockholders may occur. If we raise cash through the issuance of additional indebtedness, we may be subject to additional contractual restrictions on our business and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms or at all. Our ability to expand and grow our business in accordance with current plans and to meet our long-term capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate at which our cash flows increase or decrease and the availability of public and private debt and equity financing.
See Note 14 “Commitments and Contingencies” of our condensed consolidated financial statements in “Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited)” of this Quarterly Report and “Part II. Item 7. Future Capital Requirements” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for information regarding contractual obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements
We do not have any material obligations under guarantee contracts or other contractual arrangements other than as disclosed in Note 14 “Commitments and Contingencies” of our condensed consolidated financial statements in “Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited).” We have not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities where we have financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose us to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains estimates and forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, principally in “Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 also contains estimates and forward-looking statements, principally in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Our estimates and forward-looking statements are mainly based on our current expectations and estimates of future events and trends, which affect or may affect our business and operations. Those future events and trends may relate to, among other things, developments relating to the war in Ukraine and escalation of the war in the surrounding region, political and civil unrest or military action in the geographies where we conduct business and operate, difficult conditions in global capital markets, foreign exchange markets and the broader economy, and the effect that these events may have on client demand, our revenues, operations, access to capital and profitability. Although we believe that these estimates and forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, they are subject to several risks, uncertainties and assumptions as to future events that may not prove to be accurate and are made in light of information currently available to us. Important factors, in addition to the factors described in this quarterly report and in our Annual report, may materially and adversely affect our results. You should read this quarterly report, our Annual report and the documents that we have filed as exhibits hereto completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

As a result of the risks and uncertainties described above, the estimates and forward-looking statements discussed in this quarterly report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 might not occur and our future results, level of activity, performance or achievements may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to, including, but not limited to, the factors mentioned above, and the differences may be material and adverse. Because of these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily result from changes in concentration of credit risks, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In addition, our global operations are subject to risks related to differing economic conditions, civil unrest, political instability or uncertainty, military activities, broad-based sanctions, differing tax structures, and other regulations and restrictions.

Concentration of Credit and Other Credit Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments and trade receivables.
We maintain our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments with financial institutions. We believe that our credit policies reflect normal industry terms and business risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.
We have cash in several countries, including Ukraine and Belarus, where the banking sector remains subject to periodic instability; banking and other financial systems in these countries generally do not meet the banking standards of more developed markets, and bank deposits made by corporate entities are not insured. As of March 31, 2024, we had $57.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in banks in Ukraine and $31.0 million of cash and cash equivalents in banks in Belarus. Cash in Ukraine and Belarus is used for the operational needs of the local entities and cash balances change with the expected operating needs of these entities. We regularly monitor cash held in these countries and, to the extent the cash held exceeds amounts required to support our operations in these countries, we distribute the excess funds into markets with more developed banking sectors to the extent it is possible to do so. In April 2024, Belarus instituted new restrictions on distributing dividends from Belarus to shareholders in certain countries, including the U.S. The restrictions are initially scheduled to remain in place until the end of 2025 and may prevent EPAM from distributing excess funds, if any, out of Belarus. The Company does not expect these new restrictions to have a material impact on our ability to meet our worldwide cash obligations during this period. We place our cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions considered stable in the region, limit the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution and conduct ongoing evaluations of the credit worthiness of the financial institutions with which we do business. However, a banking crisis, bankruptcy or insolvency of banks that process or hold our funds, or sanctions may result in the loss of our deposits or adversely affect our ability to complete banking transactions, which could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Trade receivables are generally dispersed across many clients operating in different industries; therefore, concentration of credit risk is limited and we do not believe significant credit risk existed as of March 31, 2024. Though our results of operations depend on our ability to successfully collect payment from our clients for work performed, historically, credit losses and write-offs of trade receivables have not been material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. If our clients enter bankruptcy protection or otherwise take steps to alleviate their financial distress, our credit losses and write-offs of trade receivables could increase, which would negatively impact our results of operations.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. Exposure to interest rate risk results primarily from variable rates related to cash and cash equivalent deposits, short-term investments, and our borrowings, mainly under our 2021 Credit Agreement, which is subject to a variety of rates depending on the currency and timing of funds borrowed. We do not believe we are exposed to material direct risks associated with changes in interest rates related to these deposits, investments and borrowings.
37

Foreign Exchange Risk
Our global operations are conducted predominantly in U.S. dollars. Other than U.S. dollars, we generate revenues principally in euros, British pounds, Swiss francs and Canadian dollars and incur expenditures principally in euros, Polish zlotys, Indian rupees, British pounds, Swiss francs, Hungarian forints, Mexican pesos, Canadian dollars, Colombian pesos, Armenian drams and Chinese yuan renminbi. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations in any of these currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could negatively impact our results of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, approximately 32.9% of consolidated revenues and 62.7% of consolidated operating expenses were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
To manage the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and hedge a portion of our forecasted foreign currency denominated operating expenses incurred in the normal course of business, we implemented a hedging program through which we enter into a series of foreign exchange forward contracts with durations of twelve months or less that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted Polish zloty, Indian rupee, and Hungarian forint transactions. As of March 31, 2024, all of EPAM’s foreign exchange forward contracts, were designated as hedges and there is no financial collateral (including cash collateral) required to be posted related to the foreign exchange forward contracts.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, foreign exchange loss was $1.9 million compared to a loss of $4.6 million reported in the corresponding period last year. Foreign exchange loss was primarily driven by the impact of fluctuations in foreign currencies on our assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Exchange rate movements can impact the reported value of our assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar or where the currency of such items is different than the functional currency of the entity where these items were recorded.
Management supplements results reported in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, referred to as GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in our business and uses the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing our business and evaluating its performance. When important to management’s analysis, operating results are compared on the basis of “constant currency,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure excludes the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations by translating the current period revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars at the weighted average exchange rates of the prior period of comparison.
During the first quarter of 2024, we reported a revenue decline of 3.8% compared to the first quarter of 2023. Had our consolidated revenues been expressed in constant currency terms using the exchange rates in effect during the first quarter of 2023, we would have reported a revenue decline of 4.3%. Our revenues denominated in the Swiss franc, British pound and euro experienced the most impact from the movements in foreign currencies. During the first quarter of 2024, we reported a decrease in income from operations of 8.2% compared to the first quarter of 2023. Had our consolidated results been expressed in constant currency terms using the exchange rates in effect during the first quarter of 2023, we would have reported an increase in income from operations of 3.1%. Income from operations was most significantly impacted by the movements of Polish zloty, Colombian peso, and Mexican peso exchange rates during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on management’s evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by this report, these officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in litigation and claims arising out of our business and operations in the normal course of business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceeding, nor are we aware of any material legal or governmental proceedings pending or contemplated to be brought against us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
For a discussion of our potential risks and uncertainties, including our significant operations in Belarus and Ukraine and the material adverse effect the invasion of Ukraine by Russia has had and may have on our operations, business, and financial results, see the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The risks and uncertainties that we face are not limited to those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business and the trading price of our common stock.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On February 13, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program for up to $500.0 million of our outstanding common stock. EPAM may repurchase shares of its common stock on a discretionary basis from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The share repurchase program has a term of 24 months, may be suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the company to acquire any amount of common stock.
