(2) Unaudited Interim Financial Information

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on May 28, 2020. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included, and all material adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected to occur for the entire fiscal year.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis and reflect the financial statements of Virtusa Corporation and all of its subsidiaries that are directly or indirectly more than 50% owned or controlled. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity, but exerts a significant influence on the entity, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. For those majority-owned subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by the Company, the interests of the minority owners are accounted for as noncontrolling interests.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible assets, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Management re-evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis. The most significant estimates relate to the recognition of revenue and profits based on the percentage of completion method of accounting for fixed-price contracts, share-based compensation, income taxes, including reserves for uncertain tax positions, deferred taxes and liabilities, intangible assets and valuation of financial instruments including derivative contracts and investments. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual amounts may vary from the estimates used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued employee compensation and benefits, other accrued expenses and long-term debt, approximate their fair values due to the nature of the items. See Note 7 for a discussion of the fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Unless otherwise discussed below, the adoption of new accounting standards did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. The FASB subsequently issued guidance which provide clarifications and improvements to this new standard. The amendments in this update changed how companies measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets. The new credit loss model requires companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets (including accounts receivables) that are in the scope of the update. The standard update also made amendments to the current impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This update is effective for public entities from fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

The Company adopted this standard (“ASC Topic 326”) effective April 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. Prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting policies. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, therefore, the Company did not record any cumulative adjustments to the opening retained earnings in the consolidated financial statements.

See Note 9, “Revenues and Accounts Receivable” for additional information regarding credit losses.

New Accounting Pronouncements

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.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as step up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized and when it should be considered a separate transaction, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company isdoes ~~currently~~not ~~evaluating~~expect the ~~effect~~adoption of this ~~new~~guidance ~~standard~~to ~~will~~ have a material impact on ~~its~~the consolidated financial statements.

(3) Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share available to Virtusa common stockholders (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income, less any dividends and accretion of issuance cost on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. In computing diluted EPS, the Company adjusts the numerator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to add back the dividends (declared or cumulative undeclared) applicable to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Such add-back would also include any adjustments to equity in the period to accrete the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to its redemption price. The Company adjusts the denominator used in the basic EPS computation, subject to anti-dilution requirements, to include the dilution from potential shares resulting from the issuance of restricted stock units, unvested restricted stock and stock options along with the conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to common stock. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the periods set forth below:

The components of basic earnings per share are as follows:

(4) Proposed Merger with Austin HoldCo Inc., an entity wholly -owned by funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia

On September 9, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), with Austin HoldCo Inc., an entity wholly-owned by funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia (“Parent”), and Austin BidCo Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Sub”), with respect to the acquisition of the Company by Parent for $51.35 in cash for each share of Virtusa common stock.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among others, customary conditions relating to the approval of the Merger Agreement by the requisite vote of the Company’s stockholders, the receipt of certain foreign regulatory approvals and the approval or other clearance of the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (“CFIUS”). The applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (“HSR Act”), with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement expired on October 23, 2020 without any review. Consummation of the Merger is not subject to any financing condition, and is expected to occur in the first half of calendar year 2021. On December 21, 2020, the Company received written notice from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) that it had concluded its review under Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, of the Merger. CFIUS determined that there are no unresolved national security concerns with respect to the Merger. Receipt of the CFIUS clearance satisfies a certain condition to the closing of the Merger. On November 20, 2020, via a special meeting

The Company expects to incur significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the Merger. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, the Company incurred approximately $6,367 as transaction costs in connection with the Merger. If the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, the Company may be required to pay a termination fee of $54,330 to Austin HoldCo Inc.

(5) Business Combinations

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company acquired three individually immaterial businesses with an aggregate purchase price of $29,624 being paid at closing and a deferred consideration of $10,313 payable within a one-year period. The purchase price is also subject to adjustment after the closing of up to an additional $28,853 in contingent consideration, in the aggregate, upon the achievement of certain revenue and operating margin targets. The performance period for these targets are ranging from 12 months to 24 months from the respective acquisition date. These acquisitions enhanced the breadth and depth of digital offerings and expanded the Company’s relationship with certain existing customers.

Under the purchase method of accounting, assets acquired are recorded at their estimated fair values. During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company completed its purchase price allocation for ~~two~~all of the three acquired businesses and is in the process of obtaining additional information on the third acquired business, primarily regarding certain assets and liabilities and may continue to adjust the preliminary estimated fair values. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company paid $810,313 in deferred consideration and $4,051 in contingent consideration related to these acquisitions. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company recorded $5,942 as a reduction of goodwill related to updating the fair value assessment of contingent consideration of $4,178, customer relationships of $1,513 and other adjustments of $251.

The following table shows the aggregate ~~preliminary~~ purchase price allocation for these acquisitions:


	Amount		Useful Life
Consideration Transferred:
Cash paid at closing	$	29,624
Deferred consideration payable		10,313
Fair value of contingent consideration		20,786
Fair value of consideration		60,723
Less: Cash acquired		(477)
Total purchase price, net of cash acquired	$	60,246
Assets and Liabilities:
Cash and cash equivalents		477
Goodwill		21,374
Customer relationships		39,319	5 -7 years
Other net		(447)
Total purchase price	$	60,723

The primary items that generated goodwill for these acquisitions are the value of the acquired assembled workforce and other benefits expected to result from combining the acquired operations with those of the Company, neither of which qualify as a separate intangible asset.

During the six months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded $765 in the Company’s consolidated statements income as fair value changes to the contingent consideration related to events that occurred in the current period. As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of contingent consideration for these acquisitions is $16,086.

(6) Investment Securities

At September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, all of the Company’s investment securities were classified as time deposits, available-for-sale debt securities and equity securities. These were carried on its balance sheet at their fair market value. A fair market value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs was used to measure each security (See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the fair value of the Company’s other financial instruments).

The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses to determine whether a credit loss exists. The estimate of credit loss is determined by considering available information relevant to the collectability of the security and information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit loss is recorded as a charge to other income (expense), not to exceed the amount of the unrealized loss. Any excess unrealized loss greater than the credit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). We assess expected credit losses at the end of each reporting period and adjust the allowance through other income (expense). The Company does not hold any available-for-sale debt securities as of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

(8) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its foreign exchange policy on an ongoing basis to assess its ability to address foreign exchange exposures on its consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and consolidated statement of cash flows from all foreign currencies, including most significantly the U.K. pound sterling and Indian rupee. The Company enters into hedging programs with highly rated financial institutions in accordance with its foreign exchange policy (as approved by the Company’s audit committee and board of directors) which permits hedging of material, known foreign currency exposures. There is no margin required, no cash collateral posted or received by us related to our foreign exchange forward contracts.

The U.S. dollar notional value of all outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts was $~~117~~87,~~602~~693 and $128,728, respectively, at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and March 31, 2020~~, respectively~~. Unrealized net gains related to these contracts which are expected to be reclassified from AOCI to earnings during the next 12 months are $~~692~~573 at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020. At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the maximum outstanding term of any derivative instrument was 1512 months.

Table of Contents

The Company purchased interest rate swaps in July 2016 with an effective date of July 2017 and in November 2018. The interest rate swaps purchased in July 2016 matured in July 2020. The November 2018 interest rate swap was entered into to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with the Credit Agreement executed in February 2018 and subsequent additional borrowings. The November 2018 interest rate swap is at a fixed rate of 2.85% and is designed to maintain a 50% coverage of our LIBOR debt, therefore the notional amount changes over the life of the interest rate swap to retain the 50% coverage target. During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and operating as designed, the 2018 interest rate swap increased to cover the notional amount of debt that the expired interest rate swaps had been covering. In addition, the Company conducted a simultaneous de-designation and a re-designation of the hedge for this interest rate swap to align with the May 2020 debt amendment and maintain a highly effective hedge relationship given the increase of the notional amount of the interest rate swap and in consideration of the increase in interest rate floor to 1%. At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the total notional amounts of the interest rate swap was $~~172~~170,~~600~~200 with remaining maturity of approximately 2.52 years. As of the date of de-designation and re-designation, the unrealized losses associated with the interest rate swap of $10,864 will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining interest rate swap period. The unrealized losses associated with the interest rate swap agreement was $108,~~064~~884 and $11,128 at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively, which represents the estimated amount that the Company would pay to the counterparties in the event of an early termination.

Receivables and Contract Balances

The Company classifies its right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a contract asset. A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional (i.e. only the passage of time is required before payment is due). The Company presents such receivables in accounts receivable or unbilled accounts receivable, in its consolidated statements of financial position at their net estimated realizable value.

Contract assets included in unbilled accounts receivable are recorded when services have been provided but the Company does not have an unconditional right to receive consideration. Contract assets are primarily related to unbilled amounts on fixed-price contracts utilizing the input method of revenue recognition. The timing between services rendered and timing of payment is less than one year. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the contract carrying amount is greater than the remaining consideration receivable, less directly related costs to be incurred.

19The table below shows the movements in contract assets during the nine months ended:

Remaining performance obligation

ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers requires that the Company discloses the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied as of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020. This disclosure is not required for:

(1)

contracts with an original duration of one year or less, including contracts that can be terminated for convenience without a substantive penalty,

(2)

contracts for which the Company recognizes revenues based on the right to invoice for services performed,

Table of Contents

(3)

variable consideration allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-14(b), for which the criteria in ASC 606-10-32-40 have been met, or

(4)

variable consideration in the form of a sales-based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property.

Many of the Company’s performance obligations meet one or more of these exemptions. As of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, other than those meeting the exclusion criteria above, was $1613,~~711~~627 and will be recognized as revenue within 4 years.

From time to time, the Company enters into arrangements to deliver IT services that include upfront payments to its clients. As of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the total unamortized upfront payments related to these services were $1715,~~790~~735 and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheet. These upfront payments are expected to be amortized as a reduction to revenue over a benefit period of 43 years.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Accounts Receivable

The allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable is determined using the loss-rate approach and is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Where financial instruments do not share risk characteristics, they are evaluated on an individual basis. The Company calculates expected credit losses for accounts receivable based on historical credit loss rates for each aging category as adjusted for the current market conditions and forecasts about future economic conditions. The allowance is based on relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable:

(10) Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On May 3, 2017, the Company entered into an investment agreement with The Orogen Group (‘‘Orogen’’) pursuant to which Orogen purchased 108,000 shares of the Company’s newly issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, initially convertible into 3,000,000 shares of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $108,000 with an initial conversion price of $36.00 (the ‘‘Orogen Preferred Stock Financing’’). Under the terms of the investment, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a 3.875% dividend per annum, payable quarterly in additional shares of common stock and/or cash at the Company’s option. If any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have not been converted into common stock prior to May 3, 2024, the Company will be required to repurchase such shares at a repurchase price equal to the liquidation preference of the repurchased shares plus the amount of accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon. If the Company fails to effect such repurchase, the dividend rate on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will increase by 1% per annum and an additional 1% per annum on each anniversary of May 3, 2024 during the period in which such failure to effect the repurchase is continuing, except that the dividend rate will not increase to more than 6.875% per annum.

In connection with the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company incurred direct and incremental expenses of $1,154, including financial advisory fees, closing costs, legal expenses and other offering-related expenses. These issuance costs are recorded as a reduction to the proceeds received from issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. These direct and incremental expenses reduced the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and will be accreted through retained earnings as a deemed dividend from the date of issuance through the first possible known redemption date, May 3, 2024. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded accretions to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock related to its issuance cost. Holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend at the rate of 3.875% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. During the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has paid $2,092 as cash dividend on Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had declared and accrued dividends of $686 associated with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

The intangible assets are being amortized based upon the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are being utilized.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets of three consulting companies located in the United States, which were accounted as asset acquisitions and were not material to the Company. The purchase price was approximately $9,651 in cash and an additional earn-out consideration of up to $9,853 payable within one year based on achievement of certain revenue targets. During the six months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid $3,228 towards earn-out consideration based on achievement of revenue targets. The remaining probable and estimable value of the contingent consideration as of September 30, 2020 is $598.

The remaining probable and estimable value of the contingent consideration as of December 31, 2020 is $204.

(12) Income Taxes

The Company applies an estimated annual effective tax rate to its year-to-date operating results to determine the interim provision (benefit) for income tax expense. The Company’s effective tax rates were 2931.96% and 2931.51% for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, respectively, as compared to an effective tax rates of 4044.07% and 4143.93% for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019, respectively. The ~~Company’s~~decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September 30~~December 31, 2020, was ~~impacted~~primarily bydue ~~executive~~to ~~stock~~a ~~compensation~~reduction ~~limitations~~in Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (“BEAT) impact, the election of foreign tax credits ~~in the U.S.~~, ~~the~~reduction ~~election~~of toglobal ~~treat~~intangible ~~certain~~low-taxed ~~foreign~~income, ~~entities~~lower asstatutory ~~dis-regarded~~rates ~~for~~in ~~U.S.~~India ~~tax~~and ~~purposes,~~ the ~~application~~merger of ~~lower~~our ~~tax~~Indian ~~rates~~operations, inpartially ~~India~~offset ~~and~~by ~~surrendering~~tax ~~any~~expense ~~tax~~on ~~holidays~~increased inincome ~~India~~from operations. The Company’s reported effective tax rate is also impacted by jurisdictional mix of profits and losses in which the Company operates, foreign statutory tax rates in effect, unusual or infrequent discrete items requiring a provision during the period and certain exemptions or tax holidays applicable to the Company.

A valuation allowance is required if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the asset will not be realized due to the inability of the Company to generate sufficient taxable income in a specific jurisdiction. The Company has $3029,~~316~~888, ~~and~~ $2,~~148~~152 and $76 of net deferred tax assets in the United States, ~~and~~ the United Kingdom and Sweden, respectively, at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020. The Company has a valuation allowance in the U.S. related to utilization of certain foreign tax credits, which are not expected to be realized.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company merged Polaris Consulting and Software Limited (“Polaris”) with into Virtusa Consulting Services Private Limited (“Virtusa India”). The merger of Polaris into Virtusa India is considered an entity liquidation for US income tax purposes. The earnings of this entity will be subject to US taxation as well as local taxation with a corresponding foreign tax credit or deduction, at the election of the Company. The election also makes available to the Company the benefits of future foreign tax credits. The merger makes available to the Company tax deductions under Indian Laws for interest on debt used to purchase the group as well as amortization of intangible assets. Under local Indian law, the merger was retroactive to April 1, 2018 resulting in amended tax return filing in India for the year ended March 31, 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, reflects the merger of Polaris India into Virtusa India.

The Company’s income tax provision for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 includes the expected impact of the Global Intangible Low-taxed Income (“GILTI”) and executive compensation limitations of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) impacting the operating results. The Company’s aggregate income tax rate in foreign jurisdictions is comparable to its income tax rate in the United States, as a result of the Tax Act, other than in Singapore and Sri Lanka in which the Company has tax holiday benefits and eligible tax exemptions respectively.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, the Company elected to treat several foreign entities as disregarded entities. The earnings of these subsidiaries will be subject to US taxation as well as local taxation with a corresponding foreign tax credit or deduction, at the election of the Company. GILTI provisions and executive compensation limitations enacted in the Tax Act, enacted on December 22, 2017 by the U.S. government continue to impact the results. The Company’s reported effective tax rate is also impacted by jurisdictional mix of profits and losses in which the Company operates, foreign statutory tax rates in effect, unusual or infrequent discrete items requiring a provision and certain exemptions or tax holidays applicable to the Company.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act provided for net operating losses arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2021, may be carried back to each of the five tax years preceding the tax year of such loss. Net operating losses have an unlimited carry forward period, although there are annual limitations on their use suspended for certain years as result of CARES Act. The Company has filed an immediate carry back claim in the United States for losses generated in fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019. The income tax expense for the six months ended September 30, 2020, included an immaterial adjustment to reflect actual tax receivable.

On September 20, 2019, the Indian government issued Ordinance 2019 making certain amendments in the Income-tax Act 1961, which substantially reduces tax rates. The effective rate of tax on India-based companies was reduced from 34.9% to 25.17%, effective for fiscal years beginning April 1, 2019. The Company adopted the new ordinance for the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2019. The new rates require the surrendering of tax holidays and other attributes of which the Company historically was taking advantage of and favorably impacting our tax rate.

In addition, the Company’s Sri Lankan subsidiary, Virtusa (Private) Limited, was operating under a 12-year income tax holiday arrangement that expired on March 31, 2019 and required Virtusa (Private) Limited to retain certain job creation and investment criteria through the expiration of the holiday period. The Company believes it had fulfilled its hiring and investment commitments and is eligible for tax holiday through March 2019. Beginning April 1, 2019, the Company is taking advantage of certain tax exemptions offered to IT service providers in Sri Lanka.

The Company has been under income tax examination in India, the U.K., Singapore and the United States. The Indian taxing authorities issued an assessment order with respect to their examination of the various tax returns for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2006 to March 31, 2017 of the Company’s Indian subsidiary, Virtusa (India) Private Ltd, and Polaris Consulting & Services Limited (Polaris India) now merged with and into Virtusa Consulting Services Private Limited (collectively referred to as “Virtusa India”). At issue were several matters, the most significant of which was the redetermination of the arm’s-length profit which should be recorded by Virtusa India on the intercompany transactions with its affiliates. These matters are currently at different level of appeals beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006. In the United Kingdom, the Company is currently under examination for transfer pricing and research benefits for the years ended March 31, 2014 to March 31, ~~2018~~2019. In Singapore, the Inland Revenue Authority is confirming the appropriateness of the Company’s deductions for the year ended March 31, 2017. In the United States, the Internal Revenue Service has concluded an examination of fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2017. These ongoing audits are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company considers its reserve position adequate to cover any anticipated exposure from these or other positions taken on filed tax returns.

Unrecognized tax benefits represent uncertain tax positions for which the Company has established reserves. At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the total liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $6,~~598~~674 and $6,627, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits may be adjusted upon the closing of the statute of limitations for income tax returns filed in various jurisdictions. The unrecognized tax benefits ~~decreased~~increased by $2947 and $161 during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 and ~~increased~~nine ~~by $362 during the six~~ months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019, respectively. The ~~decrease~~increase in unrecognized tax benefits in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 was predominantly due to increase in the liability related to the UK audit, certain sale proceeds in India and incremental interest accrued on existing uncertain tax positions offset by the release of certain benefits no longer considered required.

Undistributed Earnings of Foreign Subsidiaries

A substantial amount of the Company’s income before provision for income tax is from operations earned in its Indian and Sri Lankan subsidiaries. The Company intends to use accumulated and future earnings of foreign subsidiaries to expand operations outside the United States and, accordingly, undistributed income is considered indefinitely reinvested. The Company does not provide for U.S. income taxes on foreign currency translation or applicable withholding tax until a distribution is declared. At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company had approximately $~~212~~126,~~568~~648 of cash, cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments that would otherwise be available for potential distribution, if not indefinitely reinvested. If required, such cash and investments could be repatriated to the United States. Due to the various methods by ~~which such earnings could be repatriated in the future, the amount of taxes attributable to the undistributed earnings is not practicably determinable.~~

The Company executed the Second Credit Agreement Amendment to provide additional lending capacity which the Company used to fund the completion of the Polaris delisting transaction, as well as to provide excess lending capacity in the event of future opportunistic, strategic, investment opportunities.

(15) Stock-Based Compensation Plans

In May 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”) which was also approved by the Company’s stockholders on September 1, 2015. The 2015 Plan permits the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock awards, performance share awards, performance-based awards to covered employees, cash-based awards and dividend equivalent rights. Stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units generally vest over four years. Performance share awards and performance-based awards generally vest over three years. Under the 2015 Plan, the Company grants both service condition awards and performance condition awards. Performance awards are contingent upon meeting various departmental or company-wide performance goals in addition to service conditions. Stock compensation is recognized over the vesting period based on the probability of achievement of the performance condition.

In May 2020, the Company issued 250,075 performance shares to its executive officers with a three-year performance measurement period. As of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company had not yet established the significant terms of the performance shares relevant to vesting (three-year cumulative target) for the three-year performance measurement period. Therefore, as of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, a grant date for financial accounting purposes had not occurred and the Company did not record any stock compensation related to these performance shares during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020. Upon the grant date, the Company will recognize the stock compensation expense over the remaining future requisite service period from the grant date.

(17) Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees.

The Company indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences under its charter or by-laws and under indemnification agreements while the officer or director is, or was, serving at its request in a defined capacity. The term of the indemnification period is with respect to the period that such person was an officer or director of the Company. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification obligations is unlimited. The costs incurred to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification obligations have not been material. As a result, the Company believes that its estimated exposure on these obligations is minimal. Accordingly, the Company had no liabilities recorded for these obligations as of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

The Company is insured against any actual or alleged act, error, omission, neglect, misstatement or misleading statement or breach of duty by any current or former officer, director or employee while rendering information technology services. The Company believes that its financial exposure from such actual or alleged actions, should they arise, is minimal and no liability was recorded at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

From time to time the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation related to employee claims, contractual disputes and taxes 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. Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of such matters, the Company has no reason to believe the disposition of any current matter, other than the specific matters described below, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s balance sheets, income of operations and cash flows or the ability to carry on any of its business activities. This assessment is based on our current understanding of relevant facts and circumstances. As such, our view of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and may change in the future.

One of the Company’s larger clients made a demand for damages related to a project in which the Company was performing services. The client ~~alleges~~alleged ~~breaches~~breach of certain representations and warranties regarding the Company’s performance and issought ~~seeking~~ indemnification for damages from those alleged breaches. No ~~litigation~~During ~~has been filed. The Company believes that it has defenses against~~ the ~~claims~~three ~~described~~months inended ~~the~~December ~~demand~~31, ~~and intends to zealously defend against those claims. However~~2020, the ~~Company~~parties ~~cannot~~agreed ~~provide~~to ~~any~~a ~~assurance~~commercial ~~that~~settlement ~~the~~whereby ~~Company~~each ~~will~~party ~~prevail~~provided ina ~~the~~full ~~dispute~~release orof ~~even~~all ~~partially~~claims ~~prevail. Further,~~provided ~~if the Company is unsuccessful in any settlement discussions, the Company also cannot provide any assurance~~ that ~~the~~Virtusa ~~client~~make ~~will~~certain ~~not~~cash ~~use~~payments ~~set~~(which ~~off~~were ~~rights~~subject into ~~the~~reimbursement ~~contract,~~under ~~even if~~ the ~~Company~~terms ~~disputes the claims or amount~~ of damages alleged. In the event the Company does not fully prevail in this dispute, the Company may have to pay damages in amounts for which it may not have reserved or which may or may not be covered by the CompanyVirtusa’s insurance policies;) ~~further,~~and ~~even~~provide ifcertain ~~the~~service ~~damages~~credits ~~are~~with ~~covered,~~respect ~~depending on the outcome, the Company’s insurance may not cover or be adequate~~ to ~~pay~~ the ~~entire~~execution ~~claim. In~~of ~~addition, the Company cannot guarantee that the Company will not lose~~ future ~~business with such client as a result of such dispute~~work.

On February 28, 2019, the Supreme Court of India issued a ruling interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers, which altered historical understandings of such obligations, extending them to cover additional portions of employee income. As a result, contributions by our employees and the Company will increase in future periods. There is uncertainty as to whether the Indian government will apply the Supreme Court's ruling on a retroactive basis and if so, how this liability should be calculated as it is impacted by multiple variables, including the period of assessment, the application with respect to certain current and former employees and whether interest and penalties may be assessed. As such, the ultimate amount of our obligation is difficult to quantify. If the Indian government were to apply the Supreme Court ruling retroactively, without assessing interest and penalties, the impact would be a charge of approximately $7,500 to the Company’s income from operations and cash flows.

In connection with the proposed acquisition of the Company by certain investments funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, several lawsuits were filed by stockholders of the Company against the Company. The Company believes that the claims asserted against them are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against these lawsuits.

If the Merger is not completed within the expected time frame or at all, we may be subject to a number of material risks. The price of our common stock may decline to the extent that current market prices reflect a market assumption that the Merger will be completed. We could be required to reimburse certain expenses of Parent or pay Parent a termination fee of $54,330 if the Merger Agreement is terminated under specific circumstances described in the Merger Agreement.

industry standard technique designed to accelerate application development. We use our Digital Transformation Studio (“DTS”) engineering tools to drive software development lifecycle automation to improve quality, enabling speed and increasing productivity. Our proprietary DTS was built by Virtusa’s engineering teams that have decades of industry knowledge and experience. These teams are certified and leverage Virtusa’s industry leading tools and assets, providing increased speed and transparency.

In fiscal year 2020, we initiated a multi-year strategy to increase our revenue growth, operating margin accretion, and earnings per share growth. Our strategy focuses on three fundamental pillars: increasing profitable revenue growth by targeting large digital and cloud transformation engagements, achieving greater revenue diversification, categorized by geography, industry and client, and increasing gross and operating margins through pyramid efficiencies, project profitability and general and administrative expense leverage.

The significant negative impact of COVID-19 on the global economy has created near-term challenges for us and the entire IT services industry. Simultaneously, the global pandemic has revealed unique opportunities for us to strengthen and advance our three-pillar plan. As a result, in late fiscal year 2020 and early fiscal year 2021, we launched several new initiatives under our three-pillar strategy designed to enable us to navigate the pandemic’s near-term economic impacts, and strengthen our overall market, financial and operational positioning going forward.

Our fiscal year 2021 plan ~~builds~~built on and ~~strengthens~~strengthened our three-pillar strategy of increased profitable revenue growth, revenue and client diversification, and margin expansion. On the first pillar, we are increasing our efforts to capture new opportunities created by a change in Global 2000 enterprises’ buying behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, in late fiscal year 2020, we launched several go-to-market campaigns targeting remote workforce enablement, cost reduction and efficiency programs, and end-to-end deep digital transformation. In addition to our COVID-19 specific actions, we ~~are~~have ~~also~~sharpened ~~sharpening~~ our sales and marketing efforts in fiscal year 2021 to target an increasing number of large, recurring, high-margin, and faster growing digital and cloud transformation engagements.

On the second pillar of revenue and client diversification, we continue to make headway against our long-term goals of a more diversified portfolio of geographies, industries and accounts. Our ~~recent~~ efforts to increase our geographic diversification, including the realignment of our regional supervision and key local leadership hires made in Europe and the Middle East, continued to drive closer relationships with our clients in Europe, Middle East and Asia~~, and thus increased opportunities in the first half of fiscal 2021~~. With respect to industry group diversification, our ~~second~~third quarter fiscal 2021 results reflect continued steady progress. Our Communications and Technology (C&T) industry group revenue ~~grew~~decreased 56.39% year-over-year in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021, and C&T as a percentage of total revenue ~~increased~~decreased 200 basis points from 2324% to 2522% over the same time period in fiscal 2020. Our Media, Information and Other revenue increased 2313.35% year-over-year in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021. We broke out our Healthcare industry group revenue for the first time in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 to provide our investors with increased transparency into this high-potential industry vertical. In the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021, Healthcare revenue was 1315.0% of our total revenue. Lastly, our Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (“BFSI”) revenue mix continued to ~~decline~~grow in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2021 to 5455.0% of our total revenue from 5754.0% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020. Given the significant opportunity we ~~have~~had toand continue to have expanding our presence in high-growth sectors such as High-Tech and Healthcare, in fiscal year 2021 we ~~are~~have ~~increasing~~increased our investments in our domain expertise, skills, and sales and marketing programs in these sectors.

Regarding client level diversification, we recognize the importance over the long-term to reduce client revenue concentration by accelerating growth of high potential accounts and adding targeted new clients. To do so, in fiscal year 2021, we ~~will~~have ~~direct~~directed more of our sales and marketing efforts toward smaller accounts that have the ability to expand significantly with us. We have had success with this strategy at our strategic clients. We will apply these same techniques to grow high potential accounts faster than our total company in order to accelerate account diversification.

Finally, with respect to Virtusa’s third pillar, margin expansion, our fiscal year 2021 plan ~~includes~~included several strategies underway aimed to improve our gross and operating margins by reducing our costs and creating operating efficiencies. Specifically, our fiscal year 2021 plan includes actions underway to improve pyramid efficiencies, reduce the use of sub-contractors, increase utilization, and reduce general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue. In ~~the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, our gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin expanded by 370 basis points~~

the third quarter of fiscal year 2021, our gross margin and ~~480~~non-GAAP operating margin expanded by 644 basis points and 637 basis points, respectively, over the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2021 driven in part by sequential revenue growth, higher utilization and execution of our cost containment initiatives such as reduced use of subcontractors.

Proposed Merger with Austin HoldCo Inc., an entity wholly -owned by funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia

On September 9, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), with Austin HoldCo Inc., an entity wholly-owned by funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia (“Parent”), and Austin BidCo Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Sub”), with respect to the acquisition of the Company by Parent for $51.35 in cash for each share of Virtusa common stock (“Baring Transaction”). On October 20, 2020, the Company announced a special meeting of its stockholders to be held on November 20, 2020. At the stockholder meeting, stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among others, customary conditions relating to the approval of the Merger Agreement by the requisite vote of the Company’s stockholders, the receipt of certain foreign regulatory approvals and the approval or other clearance of the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (“CFIUS”). The applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (“HSR Act”), with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement expired on October 23, 2020 without any review. Consummation of the Merger is not subject to any financing condition and is expected to occur in the first half of calendar year 2021. ~~The~~On ~~waiting~~December ~~period~~21, 2020, the Company received written notice from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) that it had concluded its review under Section 721 of the ~~HSR~~Defense Production Act ~~expired~~of ~~without~~1950, ~~any~~as ~~review~~amended, of the Merger. CFIUS determined that there are no unresolved national security concerns with respect to the Merger. Receipt of the CFIUS clearance satisfies a certain condition to the closing of the Merger. On November 20, 2020, via a special meeting of stockholders, the stockholders of the Company approved and adopted the Merger Agreement. On January 11, 2021, the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”) approved the Merger. The closing of the Merger remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the remaining conditions to the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement.

We expect to incur significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the Merger. If the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $54.3 million to Austin HoldCo Inc.

For more information regarding the Merger and Merger Agreement, please see the Form 8-K filed with the SEC by the Company on September 11, 2020.

COVID-19 and factors impacting our business and operating results

During ~~the~~our ~~second quarter of~~ fiscal 2021, the global pandemic related to COVID-19 presented significant challenges and adversely impacted our business and operating results. We are unable at this time to predict the full impact of COVID-19 on our operations, liquidity and financial results, and, depending on the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, such impact may be material. We expect to see continued adverse impacts to our revenue, earnings and cash flows due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, which may also continue into the fourth quarter or beyond. Accordingly, current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends. Refer to “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report for further discussion of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Virtusa quickly initiated a rigorous plan to protect the health and safety of its global team members, while continuing to serve clients in a safe and sustainable manner. As the world faces unprecedented challenges caused by COVID-19, Virtusa is committed to doing everything possible to help our team members and clients manage through these turbulent times. Actions include:

Human Capital

At December 31, 2020, we had 23,837 employees, or team members. Our human capital development framework is aligned to our ability to hire, retain and grow which allows us to invest in the development of our team members in a focused manner, while keeping our team members culturally anchored to our core values. We are able to accomplish this by focusing our people management strategy on six key components: recruiting, performance management, training and development, employee engagement and communication, as well as compensation and retention. The principal purposes of our equity and cash incentive plans are to attract, retain and reward personnel through the granting of stock-based and cash-based compensation awards, in order to increase stockholder value and the success of our company by motivating such individuals to perform to the best of their abilities and achieve our objectives. We measure our team members performance by certain key performance areas, their self-development, their teamwork and their impact on our overall organization.

High repeat business and client concentration are common in our industry. During the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, 97% and 96%, respectively, of our revenue was derived from clients who had been using our services for more than one year. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, 96% and 97%, respectively, of our revenue was derived from clients who had been using our services for more than one year. Accordingly, our global account management and service delivery teams focus on expanding client relationships and converting new engagements to long-term relationships to generate repeat revenue and expand revenue streams from existing clients.

Revenue from fixed-price contracts represented 45% and 41% of total revenue and revenue from time-and-materials contracts represented 55% and 59% for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The revenue earned from fixed-price contracts in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 primarily reflects our client preferences.

Our gross profit decreased by $5.9 million to $84.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $89.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Our gross profit decreased by $21.6 million to $152.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $174.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in gross profit during the three and six months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, was primarily due to lower utilization and the impact of productivity savings provided to our largest client as part of the vendor consolidation process, partially offset by lower onsite effort, decrease in travel and related expense as well as cost optimization programs with respect to our subcontractors implemented in the three and six months ended September 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin decreased from 27.4% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 26.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Revenue from fixed-price contracts represented 43% and 40% of total revenue and revenue from time-and-materials contracts represented 57% and 60% for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The revenue earned from fixed-price contracts in the three and six months ended September 30, 2020 primarily reflects our client preferences.

As ~~an IT services company, our revenue growth is highly dependent on our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain skilled IT professionals.~~ We monitor our overall attrition rates and patterns to align our people management strategy with our growth objectives. At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, our attrition rate for the trailing 12 months, which reflects voluntary and involuntary attrition as part of our cost reduction initiatives, was approximately 2219.09%. Our attrition rate at ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 reflects a higher rate of attrition as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The majority of our attrition occurs in India and Sri Lanka, and is weighted towards the more junior members of our staff. In response to higher attrition and as part of our retention strategies, we have experienced increases in compensation and benefit costs, which may continue in the future. However, we try to absorb such cost increases through price increases or cost management strategies such as managing discretionary costs, the mix of professional staff and utilization levels and achieving other operating efficiencies. If our attrition rate increases or is sustained at higher levels, our growth may slow and our cost of attracting and retaining IT professionals could increase.

We engage in a foreign currency hedging strategy using foreign currency forward contracts designed to hedge fluctuations in the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar and the GBP, as well as the euro, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar and the GBP against the U.S. dollar, when consolidated into U.S. dollars. There is no assurance that these hedging programs or hedging contracts will be effective. Because these foreign currency forward contracts are designed to reduce volatility in the Indian rupee, GBP and euro exchange rates, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger Indian rupee, weaker GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar but also could reduce the positive impact of a weaker Indian rupee on our Indian rupee expenses or reduce the impact of a stronger GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar on our GBP, euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar denominated revenues.

Application of critical accounting estimates and risks

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the recoverability of tangible assets, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, in particular those related to the recognition of revenue and profits based on the percentage of completion method of accounting for fixed-price contracts, share-based compensation, income taxes, including reserves for uncertain tax positions, deferred taxes and liabilities, intangible assets and valuation of financial instruments including derivative contracts and investments. Actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates. Our management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Additional information about these critical accounting policies may be found in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section included in the Annual Report.

our BFSI industry group, primarily financial services, a decrease in revenue from our healthcare industry group and a decrease in growth of revenue from several of our top ten clients, primarily in our healthcare industry group, partially offset by an increase in revenue from our largest banking and telecommunication clients and revenue from several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Revenue from North American clients in the nine months ended December 31, 2020 decreased by $10.1 million, or 1.4%, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2019, particularly due to the decrease in revenue from clients in the healthcare industry group, partially offset by revenue from several tuck-in asset and business acquisitions closed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Revenue from European clients decreased by $11.5 million, or 6.6%, as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to decline in revenue from one of our large banking clients, partially offset by increase in revenue from our largest telecommunication client.

Cost of revenue

Costs of revenue decreased from $~~473~~709.37 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019 to $~~465~~697.68 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, a decrease of $711.79 million, or 1.67%. The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily due to a decrease in travel and related expenses of $1217.52 million, a decrease in subcontractor costs of $416.2 million, which also reflect certain cost reduction actions initiated during the nine months ended December 31, 2020, partially offset by an increase in the number of IT professionals and related compensation and benefit costs of $820.31 million, ~~which also reflect certain cost reduction actions initiated during the six months ended September 30, 2020~~. We also incurred an increase in facilities and other costs of $10.29 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

Our gross profit decreased by $~~21.~~6.3 million, or 122.43%, to $~~152~~266.6 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, as compared to $~~174~~272.29 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019, primarily due to lower utilization and the impact of productivity savings provided to our largest client as part of the vendor consolidation process, partially offset by lower onsite effort, a decrease in travel and related expense as well as cost optimization programs with respect to our subcontractors implemented in the six months ended September 30, 2020. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin was 2627.98% in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019 and 2427.76% in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September 30~~December 31, 2020.

The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a decrease in compensation expense, including stock and variable compensation expense as well as cost reduction initiatives of $84.04 million, a decrease in travel and related expenses of $69.23 million and a decrease in ~~facilities and~~ other ~~costs~~operating expense of $32.35 million, partially offset by substantial legal, banking and advisory combined professional service fees of $812.37 million incurred in connection with the proxy solicitation contest as well as with the Baring Transaction. As a percentage of revenue, our operating expenses decreased from 21.94% in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019 to 21.53% in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense decreased by $54.51 million, from $919.69 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019 to $415.18 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

The decrease in tax expense and effective tax rate for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, was primarily due to a ~~decrease in income from operations,~~ reduction in ~~Base~~BEAT ~~erosion tax~~ impact, the election of foreign tax credits, reduction of global intangible low-taxed income, lower statutory rates in India and the merger of our Indian operations, partially offset by tax expense on increased income from operations. The merger of our Indian operations permits previous nondeductible items to be deducted in computing local taxable income.

Liquidity and capital resources

We have financed our operations primarily from sales of shares of common stock, cash from operations, debt financing and from sales of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Our ability to expand and grow our business to execute our strategic objectives will depend on many factors, including our willingness to make opportunistic acquisitions, strategic investments and partnerships.

On September 9, 2020, we entered into the Merger Agreement, with Parent, and Sub, with respect to the acquisition of the Company by Parent for $51.35 in cash for each share of Virtusa common stock. We expect to incur significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, we incurred approximately $6.4 million as transaction costs in connection with the Merger. If the Merger Agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $54.3 million to Austin HoldCo Inc. For more information regarding the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement and Merger Agreement, please see the Form 8-K filed with the SEC by the Company on September 11, 2020.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, which had and is having a negative business impact on our operations, in March 2020, we drew down approximately $84.0 million dollars from our revolving credit facility to supplement our liquidity and working capital in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our clients and our results of operations. For additional liquidity, on May 27, 2020, we entered into Amendment No. 3 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “ Administrative Agent” ) and the lenders party thereto (the “ Third Credit Agreement Amendment” ), which amends the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2018, with such parties (as amended, “Credit Agreement” ) to, among other things, (i) provide for $62.5 million in incremental 364-day delayed draw term loans (the “New Delayed Draw Term Loans” ), which can be drawn down up to three times on or before September 27, 2020 and (ii) extend out the debt to EBITDA ratio covenant step down by two quarters such that the leverage covenant remains at 3.25:1.00 through December 31, 2020. The Company can use the proceeds of the New Delayed Draw Term Loans to fund general working capital and refinance existing indebtedness under the credit facility. On May 27, 2020, the Company prepaid $55.0 million on its existing revolving facility as a condition to closing the Third Credit Agreement Amendment. The Third Credit Agreement Amendment contains customary terms for amendments of this type, such as representations, warranties and covenants, including pro forma compliance with the Credit Agreement debt to EBITDA covenant as a condition to borrowing. Interest under the New Delayed Draw Term Loans accrues at a rate per annum of LIBOR plus 3.50%. The Company did not elect to draw down on the New Delayed Draw Term Loans.

On October 15, 2019, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”) and the lenders party thereto (the “Second Credit Agreement Amendment”), which amends the Credit Agreement to, among other things, increase the revolving commitments available to us under the Credit Agreement from $200.0 million to $275.0 million, reduce the interest rate margins applicable to term loans and revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement from time to time and reduce the commitment fee payable by us to the lenders in respect of unused revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement. We executed the Second Credit Agreement Amendment to provide additional lending capacity which we used to fund the completion of the Polaris delisting transaction, as well as to provide excess lending capacity in the event of future opportunistic, strategic, investment opportunities. The Second Credit Agreement Amendment contains customary terms for amendments of this type, including representations, warranties and covenants. Interest under the credit facility accrues at a rate per annum of LIBOR plus 2.75%, subject to step-downs based on the Company’s ratio of debt to EBITDA. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Company drew down $145.0 million from the credit facility, inclusive of $84.0 million drawn in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as a proactive measure in light of the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier draws in the fiscal year March 31, 2020 were used to fund the eTouch 18-month anniversary payment of $17.5 million and to fund opportunistic, strategic, investment opportunities.

46For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, we are required to make principal payments of $4.3 million per quarter. The term of the Credit Agreement is five years ending February 6, 2023. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, the Company paid $13.0 million and $105.0 million towards the term loan and the revolver facility, respectively. At December 31, 2020, the total outstanding amount under the Credit Agreement to $382.0 million and the weighted average interest rate on the term loan and revolving line of credit was 3.50%.

For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, we are required to make principal payments of $4.3 million per quarter. The term of the Credit Agreement is five years ending February 6, 2023. At September 30, 2020, the Company made a payment of $28.5 million on the revolver facility bringing down the total outstanding amount under the Credit Agreement to $407.8 million. At September 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan and revolving line of credit was 3.50%. Subsequently, in October of 2020, the Company paid down $21.5 million on the revolving credit facility.

At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants set forth in our Credit Agreement. Based upon our current plans, we expect our operating cash flows, together with our cash and short-term investment balances, to be sufficient to meet our operating requirements and service our debt for the foreseeable future. However, given the dynamic nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurances that its future impact will not have a material adverse effect on our ongoing business, results of operations, liquidity needs, debt covenant compliance or overall financial performance.

At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, we had approximately $~~300~~349.8 million of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and long term investments, of which we hold approximately $~~212~~126.56 million of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and long-term investments in non-U.S. locations, particularly in India, Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom. ~~Cash~~We inintend ~~these~~to ~~non-U.S.~~use ~~locations~~accumulated ~~may~~and ~~not~~future ~~otherwise~~earnings beof ~~available~~foreign ~~for~~subsidiaries ~~potential~~to ~~investments~~expand or operations inoutside the United States orand, ~~certain other geographies where needed~~accordingly, asundistributed weincome ~~have stated that this cash~~ is considered indefinitely reinvested ~~in these non-U~~.~~S. locations.~~ If our intent were to change and we elected to repatriate this cash back to the United States, or this cash was deemed no longer permanently invested, this cash could be subject to additional taxes and the change in such intent could have an adverse effect on our cash balances as well as our overall statement of income. Notwithstanding these limitations, in April 2020, we were able to repatriate $25.0 million of cash from our India entity to our U.S. entity, without tax implication, to support our U.S. legal entity’s liquidity needs. Due to various methods by which cash could be repatriated to the United States in the future, the amount of taxes attributable to the cash is dependent on circumstances existing if and when remittance occurs. In addition, some countries could have restrictions on the movement and exchange of foreign currencies which could further limit our ability to use such funds for global operations or capital or other strategic investments. Due to the various methods by which such earnings could be repatriated in the future, it is not practicable to determine the amount of applicable taxes that would result from such repatriation.

We believe that our sources of funding will be sufficient to satisfy our currently anticipated cash requirements including capital expenditures, working capital requirements, potential acquisitions, strategic investments and other liquidity requirements through at least the next 12 months.

Table of Contents

To the extent that existing cash from operations is insufficient to fund our working capital needs and other cash obligations, we may raise additional funds through debt or equity financing. We cannot give any assurance that additional financing, if required, will be available on favorable terms or at all.

We do not believe the deemed repatriation tax on accumulated foreign earnings related to the Tax Act will have a significant impact on our cash flows in any individual fiscal year.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, we completed multiple tuck-in asset and business acquisitions for an aggregate purchase price consideration of $49.6 million, with an additional earn-out consideration of $38.7 million, which, if earned, would be payable over the next two fiscal years. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, we paid $810.3 million and $7.36 million in deferred consideration and earn-out consideration respectively related to these tuck-in acquisitions. As of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the balance of undiscounted contingent consideration is $1617.71 million, of which $12.65 million is expected to be paid within the next 12 months.

On December 31, 2019, in connection with a request for proposal (“RFP”) and vendor consolidation process conducted by Citigroup Technology, Inc. (“Citi”), and as part of the Company being one of the vendors selected to continue preferred vendor status at Citi and have the opportunity to compete for additional vendor consolidation work, the Company and Citi entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Master Professional Services Agreement, by and between the Company and Citi, dated as of July 1, 2015, as amended (the “Amendment”). Pursuant to the Amendment, (i) Citi agreed to maintain the Company as a preferred vendor under the Resource Management Organization for the provision of IT services to Citi on an enterprise wide basis, (ii) the Company agreed to provide certain savings to Citi for the period from April 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (“Savings Period”), which savings can be achieved through productivity and efficiency measures and associated reduced spend; provided that if these productivity and efficiency measures do not achieve the projected savings amounts, the Company is required to provide certain discounts to Citi for the Savings Period to achieve the savings commitments; and (iii) to the extent that Citi awards the Company additional or new work in addition to the services covered by the RFP, the Company agreed to provide Citi with a certain percentage of savings (whether achieved through productivity measures, efficiencies, discounts or otherwise) as a condition to performing such services.

On May 3, 2017, we entered into an investment agreement with The Orogen Group (“Orogen”) pursuant to which Orogen purchased 108,000 shares of the Company’s newly issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, initially convertible into 3,000,000 shares of common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $108.0 million with an initial conversion price of $36.00 (the “Orogen Preferred Stock Financing”). In connection with the investment, Vikram S. Pandit, the former CEO of Citigroup, was appointed to our board of directors. Orogen is an operating company that was created by Vikram Pandit and Atairos Group, Inc., an independent private company focused on supporting growth-oriented businesses, to leverage the opportunities created by the evolution of the financial services landscape and to identify and invest in financial services companies and related businesses with proven business models.

Under the terms of the investment, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has a 3.875% dividend per annum, payable quarterly in additional shares of common stock and/or cash at our option. If any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have not been converted into common stock prior to May 3, 2024, the Company will be required to repurchase such shares at a repurchase price equal to the liquidation preference of the repurchased shares plus the amount of accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon. If we fail to effect such repurchase, the dividend rate on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will increase by 1% per annum and an additional 1% per annum on each anniversary of May 3, 2024 during the period in which such failure to effect the repurchase is continuing, except that the dividend rate will not increase to more than 6.875% per annum. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the Company paid $23.1 million as a cash dividend on its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Company also uses interest rate swaps to mitigate the Company’s interest rate risk on the Company’s variable rate debt. The Company’s objective is to limit the variability of cash flows associated with changes in LIBOR interest rate payments due on the Credit Agreement (See Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements), by using pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps to offset the future variable rate interest payments. The Company purchased interest rate swaps in July 2016 with an effective date of July 2017 and November 2018. The interest rate swaps purchased in July 2016 matured on in July 28, 2020. The November 2018 interest rate swap is at a fixed rate of 2.85% and is designed to maintain a 50% coverage of our LIBOR debt, therefore the notional amount changes over the life of the interest rate swap to retain the 50% coverage target. During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and operating as designed, the 2018 interest rate swap increased to cover the notional amount of debt that the expired interest rate swaps had been covering. In addition, the Company conducted a simultaneous de-designation and a re-designation of the hedge for this interest rate swap to align with the May 2020 debt amendment and maintain a highly effective hedge relationship given the increase of the notional amount of the interest rate swap and in consideration of the increase in interest rate floor to 1%.

The counterparties to the Interest Rate Swap Agreements could demand an early termination of the November 2018 Interest Rate Swap Agreements if we are in default under the Credit Agreement, or any agreement that amends or replaces the Credit Agreement in which the counterparty is a member, and we are unable to cure the default. An event of default under the Credit Agreement includes customary events of default and failure to comply with financial covenants, including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio commencing on December 31, 2017, of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 for all periods thereafter ending prior to December 31, 2019, of not more than 3.25 to 1.00 commencing December 31, 2019 and for periods thereafter through December 2021, and 3.00 to 1.00 thereafter and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with these covenants. The net unrealized 47

From time to time, the Company enters into arrangements to deliver IT services that include upfront payments to our clients. As of ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, the total unamortized upfront payments related to these services were $1715.87 million and are expected to be amortized as a reduction to revenue over a benefit period of 43 years.

Beginning in fiscal 2009, our U.K. subsidiary entered into an agreement with an unrelated financial institution to sell, without recourse, certain of its Europe-based accounts receivable balances from one client to the financial institution. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, we sold $42.6 million of receivables under the terms of the financing agreement. Fees paid pursuant to this agreement were not material during the nine months ended December 31, 2020. No amounts were due under the financing agreement at December 31, 2020, but we may elect to use this program again in future periods. However, we cannot provide any assurances that this or any other financing facilities will be available or utilized in the future.

On February 28, 2019, the Supreme Court of India issued a ruling interpreting certain statutory defined contribution obligations of employees and employers, which altered historical understandings of such obligations, extending them to cover additional portions of employee income. As a result, contributions by our employees and the Company will increase in future periods. There is uncertainty as to whether the Indian government will apply the Supreme Court's ruling on a retroactive basis and if so, how this liability should be calculated as it is impacted by multiple variables, including the period of assessment, the application with respect to certain current and former employees and whether interest and penalties may be assessed. As such, the ultimate amount of our obligation is difficult to quantify. If the Indian Government were to apply the Supreme Court ruling retroactively, without assessing interest and penalties, the impact would be a charge of approximately $7.5 million to our income from operations and cash flows.

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 compared to the ~~six~~nine ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable as a result of a decrease in our days sales outstanding during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 compared to the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2019 is primarily due to a decrease in the payments for acquisitions, ~~and~~proceeds from sale of land acquired in the Polaris Transaction, a decrease in purchase of property and equipment, partially offset by a decrease in net proceeds from sale or maturity of short-term investments.

Commitments and Contingencies

See Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not have investments in special purpose entities or undisclosed borrowings or debt.

We have entered into foreign currency derivative contracts with the objective of limiting our exposure to changes in the Indian rupee, the U.K. pound sterling, the euro, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar as described below and in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

We maintain a foreign currency cash flow hedging program designed to further mitigate the risks of volatility in the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar and U.K. pound sterling as described below in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.” From time to time, we may also purchase multiple foreign currency forward contracts designed to hedge fluctuation in foreign currencies, such as the U.K. pound sterling, euro, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency denominated revenue and expenses. Other than these foreign currency derivative contracts, we have not entered into off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are likely to affect liquidity or the availability of or requirements for capital resources.

Recent accounting pronouncements

See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our market risks, and the ways we manage them, are summarized in Part II, Item 7A of the Annual Report. There have been no material changes in ~~six~~nine months ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020 to such risks or to our management of such risks except for the additional factors noted below.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the ordinary course of business. We have historically entered into, and in the future we may enter into, foreign currency derivative contracts to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on both foreign currency denominated assets and forecasted revenue and expenses. The purpose of this foreign exchange policy is to protect us from the risk that the recognition of and eventual cash flows related to Indian rupee denominated expenses might be affected by changes in exchange rates. Some of these contracts meet the criteria for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges (See Note 8 of our consolidated financial statements included herein for a description of recent hedging activities).

We evaluate our foreign exchange policy on an ongoing basis to assess our ability to address foreign exchange exposures on our balance sheet, statement of income and operating cash flows from all foreign currencies, including most significantly the GBP and the Indian rupee.

50We have an 18 month rolling hedge program comprised of a series of foreign exchange forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. This program is designed to mitigate the impact of volatility in the U.S. dollar and the GBP equivalents of our Indian rupee denominated expenses. The U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of all outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts at December 31, 2020 was $87.7 million. There is no assurance that the hedging program or hedging contracts will be effective. As these foreign currency hedging programs are designed to reduce volatility in the Indian rupee, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger Indian rupee but also reduce the positive impact of a weaker Indian rupee on our Indian rupee expenses.

We have an 18 month rolling hedge program comprised of a series of foreign exchange forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. This program is designed to mitigate the impact of volatility in the U.S. dollar and the GBP equivalents of our Indian rupee denominated expenses. The U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of all outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts at September 30, 2020 was $117.6 million. There is no assurance that the hedging program or hedging contracts will be effective. As these foreign currency hedging programs are designed to reduce volatility in the Indian rupee, they not only reduce the negative impact of a stronger Indian rupee but also reduce the positive impact of a weaker Indian rupee on our Indian rupee expenses.

The GBP, the euro, the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) and the Australian dollar (“AUD”) exchange fluctuations can have an unpredictable impact on our GBP, euro, CAD and AUD revenues generated and costs incurred. In response to this volatility, we have an economic hedge program under which we have entered into hedging transactions designed to hedge our forecasted revenue and expenses denominated in the GBP, the euro, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar. These derivative contracts have maximum duration of 92 days and do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. Such hedges may not be effective in mitigating this currency volatility. These hedges are designed to reduce the negative impact of a weaker GBP, euro, CAD and AUD, however they also reduce the positive impact of a stronger GBP, euro, CAD or AUD on the respective revenues.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest under our credit facility accrues at the higher of LIBOR or 1.00%, plus 2.75% subject to step downs based on our ratio of debt to EBITDA. In the event that LIBOR is discontinued as expected in 2021, we expect the interest rates for our debt following such event will be based on either alternate base rates or an agreed upon replacement reference rates. While we do not expect a LIBOR discontinuation would affect our ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings, it could result in higher interest rates. We entered into interest rate swap agreements to minimize interest rate exposure. The Credit Agreement for our credit facility includes maximum debt to EBITDA and minimum fixed charge coverage covenants. The term of the Credit Agreement is five years, ending February 6, 2023. At September 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate on the term loan and line of credit was 3.50%. At September 30, 2020, the outstanding amount under the Credit Agreement was $407.8 million.

At September 30, 2020, we had $300.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, the interest income from which is affected by changes in interest rates. Our invested securities primarily consist of money market mutual funds and time deposits. Our investments are classified as available-for-sale debt securities, time deposits and equity securities. These investments are recorded at fair value. Our investments are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Interest rate changes would result in a change in the net fair value of these financial instruments due to the difference between the market interest rate at the period end and the market interest rate at the date of purchase of the financial instrument.50

At December 31, 2020, we had $349.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, the interest income from which is affected by changes in interest rates. Our invested securities primarily consist of money market mutual funds and time deposits. Our investments are classified as available-for-sale debt securities, time deposits and equity securities. These investments are recorded at fair value. Our investments are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Interest rate changes would result in a change in the net fair value of these financial instruments due to the difference between the market interest rate at the period end and the market interest rate at the date of purchase of the financial instrument.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term investments, accounts receivable, derivative contracts, other financial assets and unbilled accounts receivable. We place our operating cash, investments and derivatives in highly-rated financial institutions. We adhere to a formal investment policy with the primary objective of preservation of principal, which contains credit rating minimums and diversification requirements. We believe that our credit policies reflect normal industry terms and business risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties as we invest with highly-rated financial institutions and, accordingly, do not require collateral. Credit losses and write-offs of accounts receivable balances have historically not been material to our consolidated financial statements and have not exceeded our expectations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

At ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level in (i) enabling us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings within the required time period and (ii) ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the outcome of such claims and legal actions, if decided adversely, is not currently expected to have a material adverse effect on our operating results, cash flows or consolidated financial position, except as disclosed below;

One of ~~our~~the Company’s larger clients ~~during our fiscal year ending March 31, 2020~~ made a ~~written~~ demand for damages related to a project in which wethe ~~were~~Company was performing services. The client ~~alleges~~alleged ~~breaches~~breach of certain representations and warranties regarding ~~our~~the Company’s performance and issought ~~seeking~~ indemnification for damages from those alleged breaches. No ~~litigation~~During ~~has been filed. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will prevail in~~ the ~~dispute~~three ormonths ~~even~~ended ~~partially~~December ~~prevail.

In the event we do not fully prevail in this dispute, or we agree on a settlement for such~~ claims, weprovided ~~may~~that ~~have~~Virtusa tomake ~~pay~~certain ~~damages~~cash inpayments ~~amounts for~~ (which wewere ~~may~~subject ~~not~~to ~~have~~reimbursement ~~reserved~~under orthe ~~which~~terms ~~may~~of orVirtusa’s ~~may not be covered by our~~ insurance policies;) ~~further,~~and ~~even~~provide ifcertain ~~the~~service ~~damages~~credits ~~are~~with ~~covered,~~respect ~~depending on the outcome, our insurance may not cover or be adequate~~ to ~~pay~~ the ~~entire~~execution ~~claim. In~~of ~~addition, we cannot guarantee that we will not lose~~ future ~~business with such client as a result of such dispute~~work.

On September 9, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the merger agreement, pursuant to which Austin BidCo Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Austin HoldCo Inc., a Delaware corporation (which we refer to as Parent), and owned by funds affiliated with Baring Private Equity Asia, will be merged with and into us, with Virtusa surviving as a subsidiary of Parent, which we refer to as the merger. In connection with the proposed merger, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint on October 8, 2020 in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, captioned Stein v. Virtusa Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:20-CV-01363 (referred to as the “Stein complaint”), naming as defendants the Company and each member of our board of directors as of the date of the merger agreement. In addition, on October 15, 2020, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, captioned Williams v. Virtusa Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:20-CV-01389 (the “Williams complaint” and together with the Stein complaint, the “stockholder complaints”), naming as defendants the Company and each member of our board of directors as of the date of the merger agreement. The stockholder complaints contain substantially similar allegations and generally allege that the proxy statement filed by the Company with the SEC on October 7, 2020 in connection with the merger (referred to as the “preliminary proxy statement”), is materially incomplete and misleading by failing to disclose in violation of Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as well as Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, allegedly material information concerning (i) certain financial projections prepared by the Company’s management and summarized in the preliminary proxy statement, (ii) certain inputs and assumptions used in the financial analyses conducted by J.P. Morgan in connection with rendering its fairness opinion to our board of directors, and (iii) certain background regarding the Company’s retention of Citi. The relief sought in the stockholder complaints includes equitable relief, including among other things, to enjoin the consummation of the merger unless and until certain additional and allegedly material information is disclosed to the Company’s stockholders, to rescind the merger agreement, to the extent already implemented, or to recover rescissory damages, to direct the defendants to account to plaintiffs for all alleged damages suffered as a result of their alleged wrongdoing and to award plaintiffs costs and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys’ and expert fees and expenses. It is possible that additional similar cases may also be filed in connection with the merger.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, which we currently deem immaterial or which are similar to those faced by other companies in our industry or business in general, may also impair our business operations. There are no material changes to the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020, other than as set forth below.

~~Additional~~Risks ~~risks~~Related ~~and uncertainties not presently known~~ to us, which we currently deem immaterial or which are similar to those faced by other companies in our industry or business in general, may also impair our business operations. There are no material changes to the ~~Risk~~Proposed ~~Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020, other than as set forth below.~~Merger

We may not complete the proposed merger within the time frame we anticipate or at all, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial results and/or operations.

Completion of the merger is subject to a number of closing conditions, including obtaining approval of our stockholders and receipt of required regulatory approvals or clearances. Each party’s obligation to consummate the merger is also subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party (subject to certain materiality qualifications) and the performance in all material respects of the other party’s covenants under the merger agreement, including, with respect to us, covenants regarding operation of our business prior to closing. In addition, the merger agreement may be terminated under certain specified circumstances, including, but not limited to, by Parent in connection with a change in the recommendation of our board of directors or by us to enter into an agreement for a “Superior Proposal,” as defined in the merger agreement. As a result, we cannot assure you that the merger will be completed, even if our stockholders approve the merger, or that, if completed, it will be exactly on the terms set forth in the merger agreement or within the expected time frame.

If the merger is not completed within the expected time frame or at all, we may be subject to a number of material risks. The price of our common stock may decline to the extent that current market prices reflect a market assumption that the merger will be completed. We could be required to reimburse certain expenses of Parent or pay Parent a termination fee of $54.3 million if the merger agreement is terminated under specific circumstances described in the merger agreement. The failure to complete the merger may result in negative publicity and negatively affect our relationship with our stockholders, employees and clients. We may also be required to devote significant time and resources to litigation related to any failure to complete the merger or related to any enforcement proceeding commenced against us to perform our obligations under the merger agreement.

The merger agreement provides us with limited remedies in the event of a breach by Parent that results in termination of the merger agreement, including the right to a reverse termination fee payable under certain specified circumstances, as described in the merger agreement. We cannot assure you that a remedy will be available to us in the event of such a breach or that the damages we incur in connection with such breach will not exceed the amount of the reverse termination fee. In addition, Parent requires significant third-party debt financing to complete the merger and in the event that the Parent’s lenders do not provide such debt financing, we may only be entitled to receive the reverse termination fee as provided under the merger agreement.

The announcement and pendency of the merger could adversely affect our business, financial results and/or operations.

Our efforts to complete the merger could cause substantial disruptions in, and create uncertainty surrounding, our business, which may materially adversely affect our results of operation and our business. Uncertainty as to whether the merger will be completed may affect our ability to recruit prospective employees or to retain and motivate existing employees. Employee retention may be particularly challenging while the merger is pending because employees may experience uncertainty about their roles following the merger. A substantial amount of our management’s and employees’ attention is being directed toward the completion of the merger and thus is being diverted from our day-to-day operations. Uncertainty as to our future could adversely affect our business and our relationship with clients and potential clients. For example, clients and other counterparties may defer decisions concerning working with us, or seek to change existing business relationships with us. Changes to or termination of existing business relationships could adversely affect our revenue, earnings and financial condition, as well as the market price of our common stock. The adverse effects of the pendency of the merger could be exacerbated by any delays in completion of the merger or termination of the merger agreement.

While the merger agreement is in effect, we are subject to restrictions on our business activities.

While the merger agreement is in effect, we are subject to restrictions on our business activities, including, among other things, restrictions on our ability to acquire other businesses and assets, dispose of our assets, make investments, enter into certain contracts, repurchase or issue securities, pay dividends, make capital expenditures, take certain actions relating to intellectual property, amend our organizational documents and incur indebtedness. These restrictions could prevent us from pursuing strategic business opportunities, taking actions with respect to our business that we may consider

enter into certain contracts, repurchase or issue securities, pay dividends, make capital expenditures, take certain actions relating to intellectual property, amend our organizational documents and incur indebtedness. These restrictions could prevent us from pursuing strategic business opportunities, taking actions with respect to our business that we may consider advantageous and responding effectively and/or timely to competitive pressures and industry developments, and may as a result materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In certain instances, the merger agreement requires us to pay a termination fee to Parent, which could affect the decisions of a third party considering making an alternative acquisition proposal.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, we may be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $54.3 million under specified conditions including in the event we terminate the merger agreement to enter into a “Superior Proposal,” as defined in the merger agreement or in the event Parent terminates the merger agreement following a change in the recommendation of our board of directors that our stockholders approve the merger. This payment could affect the structure, pricing and terms proposed by a third party seeking to acquire or merge with us and could discourage a third party from making a competing acquisition proposal, including a proposal that would be more favorable to our stockholders than the merger.

We have incurred, and will continue to incur, direct and indirect costs as a result of the merger.

We have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs and expenses, including fees for professional services and other transaction costs, in connection with the merger. We must pay substantially all of these costs and expenses whether or not the merger is completed. There are a number of factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these costs and expenses.

Legal proceedings in connection with the merger, the outcomes of which are uncertain, could delay or prevent the completion of the merger.

Since the announcement of the merger, putative class actions have been filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in connection with the proposed merger against us and the members of our board of directors. The lawsuits allege that the preliminary ~~that the~~ proxy statement violates Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934 by materially omitting material information related to Company’s projections and the explanation of the analysis of the Company’s financial advisor, among other claims. Among other remedies, the plaintiffs in these lawsuits seek to enjoin the merger. This and other potential legal proceedings could delay or prevent the merger from becoming effective.

Risks Related to U.S. Immigration Laws

Changes in U.S. immigration law may increase our cost of revenue and may substantially restrict or eliminate our ability to obtain visas to use offshore resources onsite, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, revenue, profitability and utilization rates.

The issue of companies outsourcing services to organizations operating in other countries is a topic of political discussion in many countries, including the United States, which is our largest market. The U.S. Congress regularly considers proposals that could make extensive changes to U.S. immigration laws regarding the admission of high-skilled temporary and permanent workers. Further, the current U.S. administration or Congress may seek to limit the admission of high-skilled temporary and permanent workers and has issued and may continue to issue executive orders designed to limit immigration. For instance, on April 22, 2020 the Trump Administration suspended the issuance of most immigrant visas for a sixty-day period, and on October 8, 2020, the Trump Administration issued interim final rules on changes to computation of prevailing wages and to amend and strengthen the H-1B nonimmigrant visa classification program. On May 7, 2020 four U.S. Senators, noting the increase in U.S. unemployment rate, urged the President to expand that order to restrict the admission of nonimmigrant (including H-1B) workers and limit the issuance of employment authorization to various categories of non-immigrants currently in the US, including certain F-1 students and H dependents. They also urged the President to extend that order for either one year, or until national unemployment rates return to normal levels. Any such proposal, if enacted, or policy change, if implemented, may increase our cost of doing business in the United States and may discourage customers from seeking our services. Our international expansion strategy and our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected if changes in immigration and work permit laws and regulations or the administration or enforcement of such laws or regulations impair our ability to staff projects with professionals who are not citizens of the country where the work is to be performed.

permit laws and regulations or the administration or enforcement of such laws or regulations impair our ability to staff projects with professionals who are not citizens of the country where the work is to be performed.

The potential risks and impact to our business if changes are made to immigration laws relating to use of H-1(B) and L-1 visas are approved could include:

●

Reduced ability to bring in foreign workers on an L-1 or H-1(B) visa

●

Increased scrutiny and requests for proof of eligibility on the use of L-1 and H-1(B) visas

●

Higher costs, including wages and benefits, for H-1(B) and L-1 visa holders

●

Elimination of our ability to pay the living expenses of an L-1 visa holder on a tax-free basis

●

Increased oversight by the Department of Labor (“DOL”) over issuance, use and administration of L-1 visas, as the DOL currently only oversees H-1(B) visas

Even if we are able to apply for, or obtain, such visas, we could incur substantial delays and costs in processing any such requests and our costs of operations could materially rise, thus materially and negatively impacting our gross margins and our statement of income. Any inability to obtain, or extended delays in obtaining, these visas, or any delays or inability to hire resources for existing or future client projects could materially delay or prevent our commencement or fulfillment of client projects, which could hamper our growth and cause our revenue to decline.

In the EU, many countries continue to implement new regulations to move into compliance with the EU Directive of 2014 to harmonize immigration rules for intracompany transferees in most EU member states and to facilitate the transfer of managers, specialists and graduate trainees both into and within the region. The changes have had significant impacts on mobility programs and have led to new notification and documentation requirements for companies sending professionals to EU countries.

Recent changes or any additional adverse revisions to immigration laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate may cause us delays, staffing shortages, additional costs or an inability to bid for or fulfill projects for clients, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Any such delays or inability to staff needed resources on client engagements may cause client dissatisfaction, project and staffing delays in new and existing engagements, project cancellations, higher project costs and loss of revenue, resulting in decreases in profits and a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Item 2. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Under the terms of our 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”) and 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), we have issued shares of restricted stock to our employees. On the date that these restricted shares vest, we automatically withhold, via a net exercise provision pursuant to our applicable restricted stock agreements and the 2007 Plan and 2015 Plan, as the case may be, the number of vested shares (based on the closing price of our common stock on such vesting date) equal to tax liability owed by such grantee. The shares withheld from the grantees under the 2007 Plan or the 2015 Plan, as the case may be, to settle their tax liability are reallocated to the number of shares available for issuance under the 2015 Plan. For the three ~~month~~months period ended ~~September~~December 3031, 2020, we withheld an aggregate of 42,~~193~~201 shares of restricted stock at a weighted average price of $3950.7905 per share.
