Cash flow from operations was $8.5 million for the fourth quarter and $ 62.7 million for fiscal year 2018. Virtusa’s Chairman and CEO, Kris Canekeratne, stated, “We see a strong fiscal 2018 financial results, increasing our top-line by 19% and ending the year in excess of $1 billion of revenue for the first time in our company’s history.”

“Our continued above-industry growth is a testament to the success of our strategy. As we look to fiscal 2019 and beyond, we believe Virtusa is in a position of strength, given our ability to help transform our clients’ businesses at every level through end-to-end digital transformation and IT platform rationalization and modernization, driving significant ROI for our clients.”

Chief Financial Officer, Ranjan Kalia, said, “We delivered strong fiscal year 2018 financial results highlighted by approximately 19% revenue growth, 200 basis points of non-GAAP operating margin accretion, and 30% non-GAAP earnings per share growth.”

“Our fourth quarter revenue was modestly below the midpoint of our guidance range, and our non-GAAP EPS was above the midpoint driven by slightly better than expected eTouch contribution.”
