JERSEY CITY, NJ / ACCESS Newswire / February 3, 2026 / Amdocs Limited (NASDAQ:DOX), a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies, today reported operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

“First quarter financial results were consistent with our guidance as we continue to focus on our primary goal of reaccelerating Amdocs’ long-term growth and extending our position as a market leader for the generative AI era. I am proud to announce that Amdocs has extended our long-term relationship with T-Mobile under a new multi-year agreement which includes managed services, software development, and AI innovation. In addition, we signed an expanded multi-year engagement at Vodafone Germany, added two new western European logos, and closed the acquisition of Matrixx Software as a strategic consolidation move which complements and expands our activities at Verizon, Telus, Telefonica, Swisscom, Three, Virgin Media O2, Telstra and other customers. As to generative AI, our accelerated development roadmap is progressing as planned with today’s announcement of aOS, an agentic operating system purpose-built for telecommunications which we expect can provide a new long-term growth engine for Amdocs,” said Shuky Sheffer, president and chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

“Our first quarter profitability improved significantly from a year ago and was unchanged sequentially as we balanced internal efficiency gains with accelerated generative AI investments. Earnings-to-cash conversion was strong, reflecting consistent execution under the many milestone and outcome-based projects and managed services engagements we are supporting for our customers. Over the busy holiday period, we provided best-in-class mission critical operations support for our customers. We also maintained very high managed services renewal rates, signing expanded multi-year engagements with T-Mobile, Vodafone Germany and other customers which together strengthen our business resiliency, said Tamar Rapaport-Dagim, chief financial officer & chief operating officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

Sheffer concluded, “Across our serviceable addressable market of roughly $60 billion, many growth opportunities exist by expanding our value proposition with current customers, diversifying in new geographies and by addressing emerging domains such as Generative AI, cloud migration and fiber rollout. With our deep telco domain expertise and tech-led, outcomes-based business model, we are strongly positioned to monetize a rich deal pipeline. That said, we continue to monitor our customers’ demand and spending behavior within the global macroeconomic environment. Overall, we are reiterating our fiscal 2026 revenue growth outlook of 1.0% to 5.0% in constant currency⁽¹⁾, putting us on-track to achieve our target of high single-digit expected total shareholder returns⁽³⁾ for the year.”

The forward-looking statements regarding our second fiscal quarter 2026 and full year fiscal 2026 guidance take into consideration the Company’s current expectations regarding macro and industry specific risks and various uncertainties and certain assumptions that we will discuss on our earnings conference call. However, we note that market dynamics continue to shift rapidly and we cannot predict all possible outcomes, including those resulting from certain geopolitical events, the current inflationary environment, changes to trade policies including tariffs and trade restrictions and the resulting impact on economic activities (as our outlook assumes current economic conditions do not deteriorate significantly due to trade policy or other macro factors), global or regional events, and the prevailing level of macro-economic, business and operational uncertainty, which have created, and continue to create, a significant amount of uncertainty, or from current and potential customer consolidation or their other strategic corporate activities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow⁽²⁾, revenue on a constant currency⁽¹⁾ basis, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP interest and other expenses, net, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to Amdocs Limited and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth. These other non-GAAP measures exclude the following items:

• amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs;

• changes in certain acquisition-related liabilities measured at fair value;

• restructuring and unusual charges or benefits;

• equity-based compensation expense;

• other; and

• tax effects related to the above.

Free cash flow⁽²⁾ equals cash generated by operating activities less net capital expenditures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Amdocs believes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Amdocs’ results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate Amdocs’ results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Amdocs believes that the presentation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and other financial measures, including free cash flow⁽²⁾, revenue on a constant currency⁽¹⁾ basis, non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP interest and other expenses, net, non-GAAP income taxes, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to Amdocs Limited and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share growth when shown in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations, as well as the net amount of cash generated by its business operations after taking into account capital spending required to maintain or expand the business.

For its internal budgeting process and in monitoring the results of the business, Amdocs’ management uses financial statements that do not include amortization of purchased intangible assets and other acquisition-related costs, changes in certain acquisition-related liabilities measured at fair value, restructuring and unusual charges or benefits, equity-based compensation expense, other and related tax effects. Amdocs’ management also uses the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding GAAP measures, in reviewing the financial results of Amdocs. In addition, Amdocs believes that significant groups of investors exclude these items in reviewing its results and those of its competitors, because the amounts of the items between companies can vary greatly depending on the assumptions used by an individual company in determining the amounts of the items.

Amdocs further believes that, where the adjustments used in calculating non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are based on specific, identified amounts that impact different line items in the Consolidated Statements of Income (including cost of revenue, research and development, selling, general and administrative, operating income, interest and other expenses, net, income taxes and net income), it is useful to investors to understand how these specific line items in the Consolidated Statements of Income are affected by these adjustments. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Selected Financial Metrics from GAAP to Non-GAAP tables below.

These risks include, but are not limited to, the effects of general macroeconomic conditions, prevailing level of macroeconomic, business and operational uncertainty, including as a result of geopolitical events or other regional events or pandemics, changes to trade policies including tariffs and trade restrictions, as well as the current inflationary environment, and the effects of these conditions on the Company’s customers’ businesses and levels of business activity, including the effect of the current economic uncertainty and industry pressure on the spending decisions of the Company’s customers. Amdocs’ ability to grow in the business markets that it serves, Amdocs’ ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses, adverse effects of market competition, rapid technological shifts that may render the Company’s products and services obsolete, security incidents, including breaches and cyberattacks to our systems and networks and those of our partners or customers, potential loss of a major customer, our ability to develop long-term relationships with our customers, our ability to successfully and effectively implement artificial intelligence and Generative AI in the Company’s offerings and operations, and risks associated with operating businesses in the international market.
