These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

Consequently, all of the disclosures required in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for annual financial statements are not included herein, hence, these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the year ended December 31, 2017 included in our 2017 Form 20-F filed within the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The financial information as of December 31, 2017 presented in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The results of operations for three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full years. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on May 9, 2018, which is the date that the condensed interim financial statements were available for issuance.

NOTE 3 - BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The basis of consolidation and subsidiaries included are the same as for the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.

NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of January 1, 2018, as described below.

4.1 – Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards

Adoption of new and revised standards

The Company has adopted all of the new and revised standards and interpretations issued by the IASB that are relevant to its operations and that are mandatorily effective at March 31, 2018 as described in note 2.1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017. The impact of the new and revised standards and interpretations mentioned on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements is described as follows.

The Company has initially adopted IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from January 1, 2018.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 sets out requirements for recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standard replaces IAS 39 Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement . IFRS 9 largely retains the existing requirements in IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, it eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories for financial assets of held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. The adoption of IFRS 9 has not had a significant effect on the Company's accounting policies related to financial liabilities. The impact of IFRS 9 on the classification and measurement of financial assets is set out below.

Under IFRS 9, on initial recognition, a financial assets is classified as measured at: amortised cost; Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI); or Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL). The classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics.

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met and is not designated as at FVTPL:

it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

GLOBANT S.A.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(amounts are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where expressly indicated that amounts are stated in thousands of other currency)

its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A financial asset is measured at FVOCI if both of the following conditions are met and is not designated as at FVTPL:

it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above, are measured at FVTPL.

The following table explains the original measurement categories under IAS 39 and the new measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of the Company's financial asset as at January 1, 2018.

	Original classification under IAS 39	New classification under IFRS 9
Cash and cash equivalents	Loans and receivables	Amortised cost
Trade receivables	Loans and receivables	Amortised cost
Other receivables	Loans and receivables	Amortised cost
Investments
Mutual funds	Held for trading	FVTPL
LEBACs ⁽¹⁾	Available for sale	FVOCI
Other financial assets
Foreign exchange forwards and future contracts	Held for trading	FVTPL
Financial assets related to business combinations	FVTPL	FVTPL
Convertible notes	Loans and receivables	Amortised cost
Call option on minority interest	FVTPL	FVTPL

(1)

As described in note 27.8 to the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, LEBACs were initially classified as held-to-maturity investments (HTM). Under IAS 39, HTM were measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. However, during December, 2015, the Company sold some of those LEBACs and consequently, changed the classification of the remaining LEBACs to Available-for-sale investments, since it was not permitted to classify investments as held-to-maturity in accordance with IAS 39. Changes in the carrying amount of AFS financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method were recognised in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of AFS financial assets were recognized in other comprehensive income. Consequently, under IFRS 9 LEBACs continue to be measured on the same basis than it was under IAS 39.

GLOBANT S.A.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(amounts are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where expressly indicated that amounts are stated in thousands of other currency)

All financial assets and financial liabilities continue to be measured on the same basis as is previously adopted under IAS 39.

Additionally, IFRS 9 replaces the 'incurred loss' model in IAS 39, with an 'expected credit loss' model. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortised cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under IFRS 9, credit losses are recognised earlier than under IAS 39. The Company's financial assets that are subject to IFRS 9's new expected credit loss model are: cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, convertible notes and other financial assets related to business combinations. However, the change in the impairment methodology under IFRS 9 did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Impairment losses related to trade and other receivables are presented separately in the statement of profit or loss. As a result, the Company reclassified an impairment gain that amounted to 360, recognised under IAS 39, from Selling, general and administrative expenses, to Net impairment (losses) gain on financial assets in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2017.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaced IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and related interpretations. The Company has adopted IFRS 15 using the cumulative effect method (without practical expedients) with the effect of initially applying this standard recognised at the date of initial application, however, as per the management of the Company's assessment, no effect had to be recognised at January 1, 2018. The details of the new significant accounting policies and the nature of the changes to previous accounting policies in relation to the Company's services are set out below.

Under IFRS 15, an entity recognises revenue when or as performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when control of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by IFRS 15.

The Company’s services are mainly performed under both time-and-material and fixed-price contracts. For revenues generated under time-and-material contracts, revenues are recognised as services are performed with the corresponding cost of providing those services reflected as cost of revenues when incurred. The majority of such revenues are billed on an hourly, daily or monthly basis whereby actual time is charged directly to the client. The Company's performance obligations are the hours performed. The Company has assessed that these performance obligations are satisfied over time and that the method currently used to measure the progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations continue to be appropriate under IFRS 15.

The Company recognises revenues from fixed-price contracts is recognized in the accounting periods in which services are rendered. The Company has assessed that these performance obligations are satisfied over time, applying the input method by recognizing revenue on the basis of the Company’s efforts to the satisfaction of the performance obligation relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Accordingly, the method used to measure the progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations continue to be appropriate under IFRS 15.

5.2 - Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into a three-level fair value hierarchy as mandated by IFRS 13, as follows:

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities.

The Company has applied the market approach technique in order to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction to sell the asset or to transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable (i.e., similar) assets, liabilities or a group of assets and liabilities.

5.3 - Level 3

5.3.1 - Foreign exchange futures and forwards contracts

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Argentinian subsidiaries, Sistemas Globales S.A. and IAFH Global S.A. have acquired foreign exchange futures contracts with SBS Sociedad de Bolsa S.A. (SBS) in U.S. dollars, with the purpose of hedging the possible decrease of assets’ value held in Argentine Pesos due to the risk of exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency. The foreign exchange futures contracts were recognized, according to IFRS 9, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. For the three months periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 the Company has recognized a gain of 73 and a loss of 112, respectively.

GLOBANT S.A.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(amounts are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where expressly indicated that amounts are stated in thousands of other currency)

These futures contracts have daily settlements, in which the futures value changes daily. Sistemas Globales S.A. and IAFH Global S.A. recognize daily variations in SBS primary accounts, and the gains or losses generated by each daily position through profit or loss. Thus, at the closing of each day, according to the future price of the exchange rate U.S. dollar – Argentine peso, the companies perceive a gain or loss for the difference. As future contracts have daily settlements, hence fair value as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was zero.

Pursuant to these contracts, Sistemas Globales S.A. and IAFH Global S.A. are required to maintain collaterals in an amount equal to a percentage of the notional amounts purchased until settlement of the contracts.This ensures minimal funding, in case SBS has to transfer funds to “Mercado a Término de Rosario S.A” (ROFEX) if losses are generated by daily settlements. This amount must also remain restricted during the term of the contracts, and invested in mutual funds in order to generate a return. As of March 31, 2018, collaterals regarding the transactions are restricted assets for an amount of 125 in LETEs included as investments. As of December 31, 2017, collaterals regarding the transactions are restricted assets for an amount of 473 in LEBACs included as investments.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the subsidiaries Sistemas Globales S.A., IAFH Global S.A. and Sistemas Globales Uruguay S.A., have acquired foreign exchange forward contracts with HSBC and Citibank in U.S. dollars, with the purpose of hedging the possible decrease of assets’ value held in Argentine Pesos and Uruguayan Pesos, due to the risk of exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency. Those contracts were recognized, according to IFRS 9, as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the subsidiary Globant LLC, has acquired foreign exchange forward contracts with Bridge Bank in rupees currency, with the purpose of hedging the risk of exposure to fluctuations in that currency within the Group. Those contracts were recognized as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. For the three months periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has recognized a a gain of 70 and loss of 118, respectively.

5.3.3. Put and call option on minority interests

As described in note 23 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, on October 22, 2015, the Company entered into a Shareholders Agreement (the “Minority Interest SHA”) with the “non-controlling shareholders” to agree on a put option over the 33.27% of the remaining interest of Dynaflows.

The expected payment is determined by considering the possible scenarios. The significant unobservable input used is forecasted Revenue Growth Rate of Dynaflows at the time of the delivery of such exercise of the put option.

Changing the significant unobservable input used in the reasonably possible alternative assumptions would have the following effects:

	Increase (Decrease) in unobservable input			Increase (Decrease) in put option
Forecasted Revenue Growth Rate		5	%		(316	)
		(5	)%		(506	)

As described in note 23 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, the Company also agreed on a call option over non-controlling interest. The fair value of the call option on minority interest was estimated by using the Black & Scholes method considering the EBITDA and Revenue of the Dynaflows' most recent audited annual financial statements at the time of the delivery of such exercise of the call option to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate.

The expected payment is determined by considering the possible scenarios. The significant unobservable inputs used are: (i) forecasted EBITDA and Revenue of Dynaflows’s most recent audited annual financial statements at the time of the delivery of such exercise of the call option, and (ii) risk-adjusted discount rate.

Changing one or more of the significant unobservable inputs used in the reasonably possible alternative assumptions would have the following effects:

	Increase (Decrease) in unobservable input			Increase (Decrease) in call option

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. The effective tax rate calculated for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was 23% and 20%. The higher effective tax rate for the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2018 is explained mainly by the variation of the Argentine Peso during the three months ended March 31, 2018 that caused that the profit before income tax includes a non taxable foreign exchange loss of 3,588. Whereas, the variation of some Latin America countries currencies, during the three months ended March 31, 2017 has caused that the profit before income tax of the related subsidiaries’ in local currency includes a taxable foreign exchange gain of 1,780, driven by accounts receivable expressed in U.S. dollars, decreasing the current income tax for the period.

The adjusted effective tax rate after detracting the effect of the exchange differences would have been 18% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The lower adjusted effective tax rate is explained by the decrease of the tax rates in United States and Argentina as a result of the tax reforms in those countries, explained in note 3.7 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017.

Salaries, employee benefits, social security taxes and share based compensation, the main component of cost of revenues, increased by $19.4 million, or 38.3% to $70.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $50.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Salaries, employee benefits and social security taxes include a $0.7 million share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and $0.3 million share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Travel and housing was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expense was $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, representing an increase of $6.9 million, or 28.4%, from $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to $3.9 million increase in salaries, employee benefits, social security taxes and share based compensation related to the addition of a number of senior sales executives in our main market, the United States; a $0.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense mainly due to the increase in amortization of intangible assets; and $0.8 million increase in office and rental expenses related to the opening of our new delivery centers. In addition, there was a $0.5 million increase in professional fees including audit and other professional services. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 26.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 27.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Share-based compensation expense within selling, general and administrative expenses accounted for $2.2 million, or 1.8%, as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and $0.6 million, or 0.7%, as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Net Impairment (Losses) Gain on Financial Assets

Net impairment (losses) gain on financial assets were insignificant for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to a gain of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which mainly resulted from a recovery in doubtful accounts during that period.

Finance Income

Finance income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $2.4 million compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily attributable to foreign exchange gains of $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to foreign exchange gains of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Finance Expense

Finance expense increased to $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily reflecting a foreign exchange loss of $2.9 million mainly related to the impact of the weakening of some Latin American currencies against the U.S. dollar on our monetary assets denominated in such currencies.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $14.0 thousand, as compared with a gain of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which included the remeasurement at fair value of the call and put option over our non-controlling interest in Dynaflows.

Income Tax

Income tax expense amounted to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of $0.7 million from $2.2 million income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our effective tax rate (calculated as income tax gain or expense divided by the profit before income tax) increased to 23.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 from 20.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The higher effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2018 is primarily attributable to an increase in the taxable foreign exchange gain from the devaluation of the Argentine peso during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Net Income for the Period

As a result of the foregoing, we had a net income of $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to net income of $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we derived 86.2% of our revenues from clients in North America and Europe pursuant to contracts that are entered into by our subsidiaries located in the United States, Spain and the United Kingdom.

Our primary cash needs are for capital expenditures (consisting of additions to property and equipment and to intangible assets) and working capital. From time to time we also require cash to fund acquisitions of businesses.

Our primary working capital requirements are to finance our payroll-related liabilities during the period from delivery of our services through invoicing and collection of trade receivables from clients.

We incur capital expenditures to open new delivery centers, for improvements to existing delivery centers, for infrastructure-related investments and to acquire software licenses.

We will continue to invest in our subsidiaries. In the event of any repatriation of funds or declaration of dividends from our subsidiaries, there will be a tax effect because dividends from certain foreign subsidiaries are subject to taxes.

The following table sets forth our historical capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2018		2017
	(in thousands)
Capital expenditures	$	4,738	$	5,145

Investments

During the three months ended in March 31, 2018, we invested $4.7 million in capital expenditures primarily on the expansion of our delivery centers in Bogotá, Colombia and New York, U.S. and the opening of our delivery center in Dallas, U.S. Capital expenditures vary depending on the timing of new delivery center openings and improvements of existing delivery centers and, primarily with respect to the acquisition of hardware and software, on the specific requirements.

As of March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents and investments of $45.0 million.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2018			2017
	(in thousands)

Net cash used in operating activities	$	(5,005	)	$	(6,802	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(16,670	)		(15,972	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		4,586			1,587
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents		153			94
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period		52,525			50,532
Cash and cash equivalents at end of the period		35,589			29,439
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$	(16,936	)	$	(21,093	)

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities consists primarily of profits before taxes adjusted for non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization expense, and the effect of working capital changes.

Net cash used in operating activities was $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This variance of $1.8 million in net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a $6.7 million increase in profit before income tax expense adjusted for non-cash-items, a $6.2 million decrease in working capital and a $1.3 million decrease in income tax payments, net of reimbursements.

Investing Activities

Net cash of $16.7 million was used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $16.0 million of net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2017. We invested in mutual funds and sovereign bonds, which generated cash flows of $1.1 million and $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We invested $6.9 million in fixed and intangible assets and $9.0 million in payments related to acquisitions, compared with $6.2 million and $2.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We recognized a gain of $0.3 million from the proceeds of forward contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and an expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Financing Activities

Net cash of $4.6 million was provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $1.6 million of net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we received $3.8 million from the issuance of shares under our share-based compensation plan and $0.9 million proceeds from subscription agreements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of January 1, 2018, as described below.

Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards

We have adopted all of the new and revised standards and interpretations issued by the IASB that are relevant to our operations and that are mandatorily effective at March 31, 2018 as described in note 2.1 to our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017. The impact of the new and revised standards and interpretations mentioned on our condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is described as follows.

We have initially adopted IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from January 1, 2018.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 sets out requirements for recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standard replaces IAS 39 Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 largely retains the existing requirements in IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities. However, it eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories for financial assets of held to maturity, loans and receivables and available for sale. The adoption of IFRS 9 has not had a significant effect on our accounting policies related to financial liabilities. The impact of IFRS 9 on the classification and measurement of financial assets is set out below.

Under IFRS 9, on initial recognition, a financial assets is classified as measured at: amortized cost; Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI); or Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL). The classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions are met and is not designated as at FVTPL:

(amounts are expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where expressly indicated that amounts are stated in thousands of other currency)

it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and

its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A financial asset is measured at FVOCI if both of the following conditions are met and is not designated as at FVTPL:

it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or FVOCI as described above, are measured at FVTPL.

The following table explains the original measurement categories under IAS 39 and the new measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of our Company’s financial assets as at January 1, 2018.

	Original classification	New classification
	under IAS 39	under IFRS 9
Cash and cash equivalents	Loans and receivables	Amortized cost
Trade receivables	Loans and receivables	Amortized cost
Other receivables	Loans and receivables	Amortized cost
Investments
Mutual funds	Held for trading	FVTPL
LEBACs (1)	Available for sale	FVOCI
Other financial assets
Foreign exchange forwards and future contracts	Held for trading	FVTPL
Financial assets related to business combinations	FVTPL	FVTPL
Convertible notes	Loans and receivables	Amortized cost
Call option on minority interest	FVTPL	FVTPL

(1) As described in note 27.8 to our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, LEBACs were initially classified as held-to-maturity investments (HTM). Under IAS 39, HTM were measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. However, during December, 2015, we sold some of those LEBACs and consequently, changed the classification of the remaining LEBACs to Available-for-sale investments, since it was not permitted to classify investments as held-to-maturity in accordance with IAS 39. Changes in the carrying amount of AFS financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method were recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of AFS financial assets were recognized in other comprehensive income. Consequently, under IFRS 9 LEBACs continue to be measured on the same basis than it was under IAS 39.

All financial assets and financial liabilities continue to be measured on the same basis as is previously adopted under IAS 39.

Additionally, IFRS 9 replaces the 'incurred loss' model in IAS 39, with an 'expected credit loss' model. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under IFRS 9, credit losses are recognized earlier than under IAS 39. Our financial assets that are subject to IFRS 9's new expected credit loss model are: cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, convertible notes and other financial assets related to business combinations. However, the change in the impairment methodology under IFRS 9 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements. Impairment losses related to trade and other receivables are presented separately in the statement of profit or loss. As a result, we reclassified an impairment gain that amounted to 360, recognized under IAS 39, from Selling, general and administrative expenses, to Net impairment (losses) gain on financial assets in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2017.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaced IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and related interpretations. We have adopted IFRS 15 using the cumulative effect method (without practical expedients) with the effect of initially applying this standard recognized at the date of initial application, however, as per the management of our assessment, no effect had to be recognized at January 1, 2018. The details of the new significant accounting policies and the nature of the changes to previous accounting policies in relation to our services are set out below.

Under IFRS 15, an entity recognizes revenue when or as performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when control of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by IFRS 15.

Our services are mainly performed under both time-and-material and fixed-price contracts. For revenues generated under time-and-material contracts, revenues are recognized as services are performed with the corresponding cost of providing those services reflected as cost of revenues when incurred. The majority of such revenues are billed on an hourly, daily or monthly basis whereby actual time is charged directly to the client. Our performance obligations are the hours performed. We have assessed that these performance obligations are satisfied over time and that the method currently used to measure the progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations continue to be appropriate under IFRS 15.

We recognize revenues from fixed-price contracts in the accounting periods in which services are rendered. We have assessed that these performance obligations are satisfied over time, applying the input method by recognizing revenue on the basis of our efforts to the satisfaction of the performance obligation relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of the performance obligation. Accordingly, the method used to measure the progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations continue to be appropriate under IFRS 15.

New accounting pronouncements

Each of the new accounting pronouncements issued during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the new and revised IFRSs that have been issued but are not yet mandatorily effective are described in Note 2.1 to our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017.

Legal Proceedings

Certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries are currently under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding payroll and employment taxes primarily in connection with services performed by employees of certain of our subsidiaries in the United States from 2013 to 2015. On May 1, 2018, the IRS issued 30-day letters to those subsidiaries proposing total assessments of $1.4 million plus penalties and interest for employment taxes for those years. Our subsidiaries intend to file protests of these proposed assessments with the IRS. Management currently estimates that the amount of possible loss in respect of taxes, interest and penalties for those years could range between $0.3 million and $0.5 million. However, at this stage we cannot make any predictions about the final outcome of this matter or the timing thereof.

Risk Factors

Argentina and International Monetary Fund staff reached an agreement on an economic plan that can be supported by International Monetary Fund financing, however, there can be no assurance that such plan will be approved or, if it is approved, that it will meet it objectives in supporting the Argentine government’s economic priorities, nor are we able to predict what the future consequences will be for the Argentine economy in general or our business in particular.

The Argentine government requested International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) financial support in late May 2018 to help strengthen the Argentine economy in light of the recent financial market turbulence. In early June 2018, Argentina and IMF staff reached an agreement on an economic plan that can be supported by IMF financing in the form of a Stand-By Arrangement for $50.0 billion. The agreement is pending review by IMF’s Executive Board which is expected to consider Argentina’s request on or about June 20, 2018. If approved, Argentina would be eligible to access the initial installment of the loan.

The purpose of the Stand-By Arrangement is to support the Argentine government’s economic priorities, which include strengthening the Argentine economy and protecting the living standards of the Argentine people.

The Argentine government has stated that it intends to take measures to accelerate the pace at which the federal government’s fiscal deficit is reduced. This measure is expected to ultimately lessen the government’s financing needs and put public debt on a downward path.

In addition, the Argentine government’s economic plan is intended to put in place measures to offer opportunity and support to the less well-off members of Argentine society. The authorities have committed to ensuring that spending on social assistance, as a share of gross domestic product, will not decline during the next three years.

The Argentine authorities have requested that one third of the $50.0 billion available under the Stand-By Arrangement be disbursed upon approval of the program and that one-half of that amount ($7.5 billion) would be made available for budget support.

As of the date of this report, we cannot guarantee that the IMF Executive Board will approve the Stand-By Arrangement or that this financing package will be sufficient to enable the Argentine government to achieve the goals of its economic plan, nor are we able to predict what the future consequences will be for the Argentine economy in general or our business in particular.

Reconciliation of IFRS to Non IFRS Financial Measures: Reconciliation of Non - IFRS Financial Data Overview To supplement our financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, we use certain non - IFRS financial measures including ( i ) adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), (ii) adjusted net income, (iii) adjusted gross profit, (iv) adjusted selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses, and (v) adjusted pr ofi t from operations. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS, and other companies may use similarly titled non - IFRS financial measures that are calculated differently fro m the way we calculate such measures. Accordingly, our non - IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similar non - IFRS measures presented by other companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such non - IFRS measures, but instead to consider them with the most directly comparable IFRS measures. Non - IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical too ls and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with IF RS . The reconciliations of these non - IFRS measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in ac cordance with IFRS are shown in the tables below. We use these non - IFRS measures as key measures in the evaluation of our performance and our consolidated financial results. We believe these non - IFRS measures are useful to investors in their assessment of our operating performance and the valuation of our company. In addition, these non - IFRS measures address questions we routine ly receive from analysts and investors and, in order to assure that all investors have access to similar data, we have determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all inv estors . Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted Net Income We utilize non - IFRS measures of adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted net income for strategic decision making, forecasting future r esults and evaluating current performance. Adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted net income are most directly comparable to the IFRS measures of EPS and net income, respectively. Our non - IFRS meas ures of adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted net income exclude the impact of certain items, such as acquisition - related charges, impairment of tax credits, net of recoveries, share - ba sed compensation expense and expense related to the US settlement agreement ( See “Financial Information - Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information - Legal Proceedings” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20 - F). Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted SG&A Expenses We utilize non - IFRS measures of adjusted gross profit and adjusted SG&A expenses as supplemental measures for period - to - period c omparisons. Adjusted gross profit and adjusted SG&A expenses are most directly comparable to the IFRS measures of gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses, res pectively. Our non - IFRS measures of adjusted gross profit and adjusted SG&A expenses exclude the impact of certain items, such as amortization and depreciation expense, share - based compensat ion expense and, only with respect to adjusted SG&A expenses, acquisition - related charges. Adjusted Profit from Operations We utilize the non - IFRS measure of adjusted profit from operations as a supplemental measure for period - to - period comparisons. A djusted profit from operations is most directly comparable to the IFRS measure of profit from operations. Adjusted profit from operations excludes the impact of certain items, such as share - base d compensation expense, impairment of tax credits, net of recoveries and acquisition - related charges.
