Business Overview

iGATE’s service offerings include Information Technology (“IT”) and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions and services to large and medium-sized organizations using an offshore/onsite model.

The use of offshore outsourcing for IT and IT enabled operations outsourcing solutions and services has emerged as a global trend in numerous countries and industries. Our clients recognize that offshore outsourcing is an effective way to provide high quality and cost-effective services.

Our principal strategy is to offer offshore-based Integrated Technology and Operations (“iTOPS”) solutions that integrate IT outsourcing and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions and services in a seamless

1

offering as well as conventional IT and business process outsourcing services to our clients in various industries. Some of our current service offerings are non-IT related and include services as diverse as call centers and mortgage and claims processing. We may continue to expand our IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing service offerings through acquisitions and strategic relationships and internal initiatives.

Our iTOPS offerings include outsourcing solutions focused primarily on insurance, banking, financial services and capital markets industries as well as finance and accounting process outsourcing delivered out of our offshore facilities in India that targets diverse industries.

IT services that we deliver using our offshore centers include software application development and maintenance, implementation and support of enterprise applications, package evaluation and implementation, re-engineering, data warehousing, business intelligence, analytics, data management and integration, software testing and IT infrastructure management services. We believe that we deliver high quality solutions to our clients at a substantial savings by using our global pool of highly talented people.

IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions and services offered include business process outsourcing, transaction processing services and call center services. The call center services are offered to clients in several industries and are not industry specific. The transaction processing services offered are focused on the mortgage banking, financial services, insurance and capital market industries, except for the delivery of finance and accounting functions such as accounts payable which can be performed for clients across all industries.

iGATE has offshore development centers located in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai and Noida in India. iGATE has global development centers located in Australia, Mexico, Canada, Malaysia and the U.S. The centers can deliver both near shore (work performed primarily at the client site) and offshore services, dependent upon customer location and expectations. iGATE operates in India, Canada, the U.S., Europe, Mexico, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan and Australia.

iGATE markets its service offerings to large and medium-sized organizations. Certain contracts are based upon a fixed price with payment based upon deliverables and/or project milestones reached. Certain contracts are time-and-material based where contract payments are based on the number of consultant hours worked on the project. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables have a designated workforce and are based on fixed periodic payments. Some process outsourcing contracts provide pricing per transaction. Customers typically have the right to cancel contracts with minimal notice. Contracts with deliverables or project milestones can provide for certain penalties if the deliverables or project milestones are not met within contract timelines.

Recent Events

None.

Reportable Financial Segments

The Company’s reportable segments through June 30, 2008 were iGATE Solutions (“iGS”), iGATE Professional Services (“iPS”) and iGATE Shared Services (“iSS”). The iGS segment’s service offerings include IT and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions and services to large and medium-sized organizations. The iPS segment’s offerings included a variety of client-managed and supervised IT staffing service offerings. This segment services are offered principally in the United States of America. The iSS segment’s offerings included the operations of the clinical research business (i.e. iGATE Clinical Research International Inc. and iGATE Clinical Research International Private Limited collectively “iCRI”) and the corporate shared service division of the Company.

2

On July 31, 2008, the Company sold off its clinical research business. Additionally, pursuant to an enterprise reorganization, the Company assigned the resources, including employees, relating to the corporate shared service division in the iSS segment to the iGS segment of its business. Also, as more fully explained in Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective September 30, 2008, the Company spun off the iPS segment of its business into a newly formed company known as Mastech Holdings, Inc (“Mastech”).

As a consequence of the above mentioned events, currently the business of the Company is comprised solely of what was formerly known as the iGS segment, which is conducted through our wholly owned subsidiary, iGATE Global Solutions Limited.

Seasonality

Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants’ billable hours are affected by national holidays and vacation policies, which vary by country.

Competition

The IT and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing services industries are highly competitive, and are served by numerous global, national, regional and local firms. Primary competitors in the IT and IT enabled outsourcing industry include participants from a variety of market segments, including the major consulting firms, systems consulting and implementation firms, Internet services and consulting companies, applications software firms, India based offshore outsourcing companies, service groups of computer equipment companies, general management consulting firms, programming companies and temporary staffing firms. Many companies also choose to perform some or all of their back office IT and IT enabled operations internally. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the IT and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing markets include the range of services offered, size and scale of service provider, global reach, technical expertise, responsiveness to client needs, speed in delivery of IT solutions, quality of service and perceived value.

Our Partner Companies and Affiliates

We operate our business through our wholly owned subsidiary iGATE Global Solutions Limited, which is engaged in IT and IT enabled operations involving offshore outsourcing solutions and services.

Intellectual Property Rights

We rely upon a combination of nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements and trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws to protect our proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of third parties from whom we license intellectual property. We enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and limit the distribution of proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the steps we take in this regard will be adequate to deter misappropriation of proprietary information or that we will be able to detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights.

Generally, all software that we develop in connection with a client engagement is typically assigned to the client.

Human Resources

Our success depends in large part on our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled IT and IT enabled service professionals. We recruit in a number of countries, including India, the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Japan and Australia. We advertise in newspapers and trade magazines. In addition, our employees are a valuable recruiting tool and are actively involved in referring new employees and screening candidates for new positions.

3

We have a focused retention strategy that includes career planning, training, benefits and an incentive plan. Our benefits package includes subsidized health insurance, a 401(k) plan, group life insurance and a long-term disability plan. We intend to continue to use stock options and restricted stock grants as part of our recruitment and retention strategy. We also have a training infrastructure. We train employees on a variety of platforms and help them transition from legacy to advanced architecture skills by providing cross-platform training in new technologies. We have implemented an Intranet to allow our employees to access our courseware and computer-based training modules via the Internet so that the training is available to all employees worldwide at their individual convenience and pace.

At December 31, 2008, iGATE had 6,658 non-unionized employees comprised of 6,141 IT and IT enabled service professionals (including subcontractors) and 517 individuals working in sales, recruiting, general and administrative roles. As of December 31, 2008, 29% of our U.S. workforce was working under H-1B temporary work permits in the United States. We believe that our relationships with our employees are good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our New Business Strategy is Unproven

In 2008, we significantly reorganized our business to reflect our business strategy to increase the focus on our offshore delivery business and to become a “pure-play” IT/IT enabled operations business. After these changes, iGATE was left with only service offerings that include Information Technology and IT enabled operations, offshore outsourcing solutions and services to large and medium-sized organizations using an offshore/onsite model. In the judgment of the Board of Directors, the Company will provide greater value to its shareholders as a focused IT and IT enabled outsourcing company, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to profitably manage the iGS segment as a standalone business. In particular, the Company’s professional services business, which was spun off at the end of the third quarter of 2008, historically provided the Company with substantial free cash flow. We cannot be certain that this standalone strategy will improve our performance, and it is possible that the strategy will detract from our performance.

Difficulties in Providing Expanded Service Options

We have been expanding the nature and scope of our engagements by extending the breadth of the IT / BPO services we offer. The success of some of our newer service offerings, such as operations and business process consulting, IT consulting, business process management, systems integration and infrastructure management, depends in part, upon continued demand for such services by our existing and new clients and our ability to meet this demand in a cost-competitive and effective manner. Our ability to effectively offer a wider breadth of end-to-end business solutions depends on our ability to attract existing or new clients to these service offerings. To obtain engagements for our end-to-end solutions, we are competing with large, well-established international consulting firms as well as other India-based technology services companies, resulting in increased competition and marketing costs. Accordingly, our new service offerings may not effectively meet client needs and we may be unable to attract existing and new clients to these service offerings.

The increased breadth of our service offerings may result in larger and more complex client projects. This will require us to establish closer relationships with our clients and potentially with other technology service providers and vendors, and require a more thorough understanding of our clients’ operations. Our ability to establish these relationships will depend on a number of factors including the proficiency of our technology professionals and our management personnel. Larger projects often involve multiple components, engagements or stages, and a client may choose not to retain us for additional stages or may cancel or delay additional planned engagements. These terminations, cancellations or delays may result from the business or financial condition of our clients or the economy generally, as opposed to factors related to the quality of our services. Cancellations or delays make it difficult to plan for project resource requirements, and resource planning inaccuracies may have a negative impact on our profitability.

Intense Competition in the IT and Offshore Outsourcing Services Industries

The IT and offshore outsourcing services industries are highly competitive and served by numerous global, national, regional and local firms. Primary competitors include participants from a variety of market segments, including the major consulting firms, systems consulting and implementation firms, India based offshore outsourcing services, applications software firms, service groups of computer equipment companies, specialized interest consulting firms, programming companies and temporary staffing firms. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources and greater name recognition than we have. There are relatively few barriers to entry into our markets and we may face additional competition from new competitors who are more powerful and companies who provide different services. This increase in competition may result in lower prices, higher cost of resources and thus lower profitability.

In addition, there is a risk that clients may elect to increase their internal resources to satisfy their applications solutions needs. Further, the IT services industry is undergoing consolidation, which may result in increasing pressure on margins. These factors may limit our ability to increase prices commensurate with increases in compensation. There can be no assurance that we will compete successfully with existing or new competitors in the IT and offshore outsourcing services markets.

Rapid Technological Change; Dependence on New Solutions

The IT and offshore outsourcing services industries are characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changing client preferences and new product introductions. Our success will depend in part on our ability to develop IT solutions that keep pace with industry developments. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing these developments on a timely basis or that, if these developments are addressed, we will be successful in the marketplace. In addition, there can be no assurance that products or technologies developed by others will not render our services noncompetitive or obsolete. Our failure to address these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

A significant number of organizations are attempting to migrate business applications to advanced technologies. As a result, our ability to remain competitive will be dependent on several factors, including our ability to develop, train and hire employees with skills in advanced technologies, breadth and depth of process and technology expertise, service quality, knowledge of industry, marketing and sales capabilities. Our failure to hire, train and retain employees with such skills could have a material adverse impact on our business. Our ability to remain competitive will also be dependent on our ability to design and implement, in a timely and cost-effective manner, effective transition strategies for clients moving to advanced architectures. Our failure to design and implement such transition strategies in a timely and cost-effective manner could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Risk of Preferred Vendor Contracts

We are party to several “preferred vendor” contracts and we are seeking additional similar contracts in order to obtain new or additional business from large or medium-sized clients. Clients enter into these contracts to reduce the number of vendors and obtain better pricing in return for a potential increase in the volume of business to the preferred vendor. While these contracts are expected to generate higher volumes, they generally result in lower margins. Although we attempt to lower costs to maintain margins, there can be no assurance that we will be able to sustain margins on such contracts. In addition, the failure to be designated a preferred vendor, or the loss of such status, may preclude us from providing services to existing or potential clients, except as a subcontractor, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

5

Concentration of Revenues

Our revenues are highly dependent on clients primarily located in the United States, as well as clients concentrated in certain industries. Economic slowdowns, changes in U.S. law and other restrictions or factors that affect the economic health of these industries may affect our business. In the year ended December 31, 2008, approximately 56% of our revenues were derived from customers located in the United States. We have in the past derived, and may in the future derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a relatively limited number of clients. Our five largest clients represented approximately 61%, 55% and 50% of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Consequently, if our top clients reduce or postpone their IT spending significantly, this may lower the demand for our services and negatively affect our revenues and profitability. Further, any significant decrease in the growth of the financial services or other industry segments on which we focus may reduce the demand for our services and negatively affect our revenues and profitability.

Risks Associated with Termination

Most of our projects are terminable by the client without penalty. An unanticipated termination of a major project could result in the loss of substantial anticipated revenues and could require us to maintain or terminate a significant number of unassigned IT professionals, resulting in a higher number of unassigned IT professionals and/or significant termination expenses. The loss of any significant client or project could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Negative Economic Conditions in the United States and Abroad

A majority of our revenues is from clients located in the United States. Due to the current economic downturn, there is decreased economic activity in the United States. The trend of slowdown is also impacting most of the major economies in the world where we have our business. Our business depends on the overall demand for information technology and on the economic health of our clients. As the economic downturn progresses, companies may be forced to reduce their information technology outsourcing budgets. Weak economic conditions and reduced outsourcing budgets may adversely affect demand for our services, thus reducing our revenues.

Risks Related to Inability to Acquire Additional Businesses

We plan to continue to expand our operations gradually through the acquisition of, or investment in, additional businesses and companies in order to seek opportunities to add or enhance the services, to enter into new markets or to strengthen our global presence. We may be unable to identify businesses that complement our strategy for growth. If we do succeed in identifying a company with such a business, we may not be able to proceed to acquire the company, its relevant business or an interest in the company for many reasons, including:

• a failure to agree on the terms of the acquisition or investment;

• incompatibility between the Company and the management of the company which we wish to acquire or invest;

• competition from other potential acquirers;

• a lack of capital to make the acquisition or investment; and

• the unwillingness of the company to partner with us.

If we are unable to continue acquiring and investing in attractive businesses, our strategy for growth may not succeed.

Risks Related to Acquisitions

There can be no assurance that we will be able to profitably manage additional businesses or successfully integrate any acquired businesses without substantial expenses, delays or other operational or financial problems.

6

Further, acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including diversion of management’s attention, failure to retain key acquired personnel, unanticipated events or circumstances and legal liabilities and amortization of acquired intangible assets, risk that business we acquire may lose customers, some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Client satisfaction or performance problems at a single acquired firm could have a material adverse impact on our reputation as a whole. In addition, there can be no assurance that acquired businesses, if any, will achieve anticipated revenues and earnings. Our failure to manage our acquisition strategy successfully could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Potential U.S Regulation of Offshore Outsourcing

Some U.S. states have enacted legislation restricting government agencies from outsourcing their back office processes and Information Technology solutions work to companies outside the United States. It is also possible that U.S. private sector companies that work with these states may be restricted from outsourcing their work related to government contracts. We currently do not have significant contracts with U.S. federal or state government entities; however, there can be no assurance that these restrictions will not extend to private companies, such as our clients. Any changes to existing laws or the enactment of new legislation restricting offshore outsourcing may adversely impact our ability to do business in the United States, particularly if these changes are widespread.

Variability of Quarterly Operating Results

The revenues and operating results are subject to significant variations from quarter to quarter depending on a number of factors, including the timing and number of client projects commenced and completed during the quarter, the number of working days in a quarter, employee hiring, attrition and utilization rates and the mix of time-and-material projects versus proportional performance and maintenance projects during the quarter. We recognize revenues on time-and-material projects as the services are performed, while revenues on proportional performance projects are recognized using the proportional performance method. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. Although proportional performance projects have not contributed significantly to revenues and profitability to date, operating results may be adversely affected in the future by cost overruns on proportional performance projects. Because a high percentage of the expenses are relatively fixed, variations in revenues may cause significant variations in operating results. Additionally, periodically our cost increases due to both the hiring of new employees and strategic investments in infrastructure in anticipation of future opportunities for revenue growth.

Risks of International Operations

We have international operations in twelve countries. Our international IT and IT enabled outsourcing development depend greatly upon business immigration and technology transfer laws in those countries, and upon the continued development of technology infrastructure. There can be no assurance that our international operations will be profitable or support our growth strategy. The risks inherent in our international business activities include:

• unexpected changes in regulatory environments or failure to adhere to regulations that govern our client’s businesses;

• foreign currency fluctuations;

• tariffs and other trade barriers;

• difficulties in managing international operations; and

• the burden of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and regulations.

7

Our failure to manage growth, attract and retain personnel, manage major development efforts, profitably deliver services, or a significant interruption of our ability to transmit data via satellite, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to successfully maintain and develop our international operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Market Price of our Shares may Continue to be Volatile

The market price of our shares may continue to be unstable or unpredictable due to market conditions and other factors some of which are beyond our control. Factors affecting market price of our shares are:

• Fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

• Loss of one or more significant clients;

• Loss of one or more key management personnel;

• Natural disasters or any other events effecting the countries where we or our clients have operations; and

• Changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts.

Concentration of Ownership in Founders

Sunil Wadhwani and Ashok Trivedi, co-founders of iGATE, own approximately 57% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, Messrs. Wadhwani and Trivedi together have sufficient voting power to elect all the members of the Board of Directors and to effect transactions without the approval of our other public shareholders, except for those limited transactions that require a supermajority vote under our bylaws or articles of incorporation. The interests of Messrs. Wadhwani and Trivedi may from time to time diverge from our interests. Our Audit Committee consists of independent directors and addresses certain potential conflicts of interest and related party transactions that may arise between us and our directors, officers or our other affiliates. However, there can be no assurance that any conflicts of interest will be resolved in our favor.

Impairment Analysis May Lead to Recognition of Losses

The carrying amount of the goodwill on our balance sheet was $29.2 million as of December 31, 2008. We periodically assess the potential impairment of our long-lived assets, such as goodwill, as appropriate. If, as a result of such an assessment, we were to determine that the carrying amount of this goodwill was not recoverable, we would reduce the carrying amount in the period in which the determination was made. Any reduction would result in the recognition of a one-time impairment loss, which would have an adverse effect on our financial results in the period in which the loss was recognized.

Risks Associated with Intellectual Property Rights

Our success depends in part upon certain methodologies and tools we use in designing, developing and implementing applications systems and other proprietary intellectual property rights. We rely upon a combination of nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements and trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws to protect our proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of third parties from whom we license intellectual property. We enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and limit distribution of proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the steps we take in this regard will be adequate to deter misappropriation of proprietary information or that we will be able to detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights.

Although we believe that our services do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others and that we have all rights necessary to utilize the intellectual property employed in our business, we are subject to the

8

risk of litigation alleging infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Any claims, whether or not meritorious, could:

• be expensive and time-consuming to defend;

• cause significant installation delays;

• divert management’s attention and resources; and/or

• require us to enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or may not be available at all.

A successful claim of product infringement against us or our failure or inability to license the infringed or similar technology could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fixed-Price Projects

We undertake certain projects billed on a fixed-price basis. We recognize revenue from these contracts on a proportional performance basis, which is different from our principal method of billing, the time-and-material basis. Failure to accurately estimate the resources or time required to complete a fixed price project or to maintain the required quality levels or any unexpected increase in cost due to increase in employee cost, office space cost, technology cost or failure to complete such projects within budget would expose us to risks associated with cost overruns. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Recruitment and Retention of IT Professionals

Our industry relies on large numbers of skilled IT employees, and our success depends upon our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain a sufficient number of skilled IT professionals and project managers who possess the technical skills and experience necessary to deliver our services. Qualified IT professionals are in demand worldwide and are likely to remain a limited resource for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that qualified IT professionals will be available to us in sufficient numbers, or that we will be successful in retaining current or future employees. Failure to attract or retain qualified IT professionals in sufficient numbers may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Historically, we have done much of our recruiting outside of the countries where the client work is performed. Accordingly, any perception among our IT professionals, whether or not well founded, that our ability to assist them in obtaining temporary work visas and permanent residency status has been diminished, could lead to significant employee attrition.

Exposure to Regulatory and General Economic Conditions in India

Our subsidiary iGATE Global Solutions (“iGS”) utilizes offshore software development centers based in Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Noida, India. iGS also operates recruiting and training centers in India. The Indian government exerts significant influence over its economy. In the recent past, the Indian government has provided significant tax incentives and relaxed certain regulatory restrictions in order to encourage foreign investment in certain sectors of the economy, including the technology industry. Certain of these benefits that directly affect us include, among others, tax holidays (temporary exemptions from taxation on operating income), liberalized import and export duties and preferential rules on foreign investment and repatriation. To be eligible for certain of these tax benefits, we must continue to meet certain conditions. A failure to meet such conditions in the future could result in the cancellation of the benefits. There can be no assurance that such tax benefits will be continued in the future and also it is not clear whether new tax policies will provide equivalent benefits and incentives. Any new tax legislation and the results of actions by taxing authorities may have adverse effect on our operations and our overall tax rate.

9

Increase in Wages of our Employees

Salaries and other related benefits constitute a major portion of our total cost. Most of our employees are based in India and our wage costs in India have historically been significantly lower than wage costs in the United States and Europe for comparably skilled professionals, and this has been one of our competitive advantages.

However, wage increases in India or other countries where we have our operations may prevent us from sustaining this competitive advantage and may negatively affect our profit margins. We may need to increase the levels of our employee compensation more rapidly than in the past to retain talent. Unless we are able to continue to increase the efficiency and productivity of our employees, wage increases in the long term may reduce our profit margins.

Dependence on Senior Leadership Team

Our success is highly dependent on the efforts and abilities of our Chief Executive Officer, Phaneesh Murthy and senior management team. These personnel possess business and technical capabilities that are difficult to replace. Although each executive has entered into employment agreements containing non-competition, non-disclosure and non-solicitation covenants, these contracts do not guarantee that they will continue their employment with us or that such covenants will be enforceable. If we lose service of any of the key executives, we may not be able to effectively manage our current operations and meet our ongoing and future business challenges and this may have material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Potential Liability to Clients

Many of our engagements involve projects that are critical to the operations of our clients’ businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. Although we attempt to contractually limit our liability for damages arising from errors, mistakes, omissions or negligent acts in rendering our services, there can be no assurance that our attempts to limit liability will be successful. Our failure or inability to meet a client’s expectations in the performance of our services could result in a material adverse change to the client’s operations and therefore could give rise to claims against us or damage our reputation, adversely affecting our business, operating results and financial condition.

We may also be liable to our clients for damages caused by disclosure of confidential information of the client. We are often required to collect and store sensitive and confidential data of the client to perform the services under the contract. If any of our current or former employees misappropriates client’s sensitive or confidential data or if we do not adapt to latest changes in the data protection legislation, we could be subject to significant liability to our clients.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

iGATE Corporation (“iGATE” or “the Company”) is a leading provider of Information Technology (“IT”) and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions services to large and medium-size organizations. iGATE provides end-to-end business solutions that leverage technology thus enabling its clients to enhance business performance.

On July 31, 2008, the Company completed the sale of iGATE Clinical Research International Inc and iGATE Clinical Research International Private Limited (collectively, “iCRI’”), its clinical research business, and on September 30, 2008, the Company completed the spin-off of its Professional Services business segment (“iPS”). In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”, the assets and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of iCRI and iPS have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented through the date of sale and spin-off. Cash flows of iCRI and iPS have been segregated in the consolidated statement of cash slows as separate line items within operating, investing and financing activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following explains our most critical accounting policies and estimates. See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements set forth on pages 39 to 46 of this Form 10-K for a complete description of our significant accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue on time-and-material contracts as the services are performed. Time-and-material contracts typically bill at an agreed upon hourly rate. A price for an entire project is agreed upon for a predetermined fee before the project starts. We recognize revenues on fixed-price contracts using the proportional performance method. We prepare a budget for each fixed price project, and based upon the budget that we prepare, we estimate what our costs should be. We determine performance by comparing the actual cost of work performed to date to the estimated total cost for each contract. We recognize revenue based upon costs incurred by our consultants during the period. The Company follows this revenue recognition method for fixed-price contracts because there is a direct and consistent relationship between the service patterns and services provided to the customer and the direct costs incurred to provide such services. If our cost estimates indicate a loss on a particular fixed price contract, we record a provision for the estimated loss without regard to the stage of completion. Changes in job performance, conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and revenues and are recognized in the period in which the changes are identified. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, we recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. Revenue on these contracts is ratable and predetermined based upon the negotiated contract. We also bill customers based on a transaction fee basis. Revenue from these unit prices contracts are recognized on rendering of the services as per the terms of the contract.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

Investments in equity shares of unconsolidated entities that are not quoted or publicly traded in which the Company owns less than 20% of the voting interest are accounted for at cost. For investments in entities in which the Company owns between 20% and 50% of the voting interest or otherwise acquires management influence are accounted for using the equity method and initially recognized at cost. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of the post acquisition profits and losses is recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

15

For investments accounted for using the cost or equity method of accounting, management evaluates information (e.g., budgets, business plans, financial statements, etc.) in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value exists. Factors indicative of an other-than-temporary decline include recurring operating losses, credit defaults and subsequent rounds of financings at an amount below the cost basis of an investment. This list is not all inclusive and management weighs all quantitative factors in determining if an other-than-temporary decline in value of an investment has occurred.

In evaluating these factors above, management presumes a decline in value to be other-than-temporary if the fair value of the security is 20% or more below the investment’s carrying value for a period of six months or more (the “20% criteria”). However, the presumption of an other-than-temporary decline in these instances may be overcome if there is persuasive evidence indicating that the decline is temporary in nature (e.g., strong operating performance of investee, historical volatility of investee, etc.). Additionally, there may be instances where impairment losses are recognized even if the 20% criterion is not satisfied (e.g., plan to sell the security in the near term and the fair value is below the Company’s carrying basis). In 2007, the Company recorded an impairment of its remaining investment in Concours, Inc. of $0.6 million. There were no impairments recorded in 2008 or in 2006.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

Accounts receivables are reviewed periodically to determine the probability of loss. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined using the combination of the specific identification method for balances deemed uncollectible, as well as judgments made by the Company based upon historical and expected collection experience.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if indicators arise. The evaluation is based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value to the carrying value of the assets and liabilities. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated based upon the Company’s market capitalization and the discounted future cash flow analysis. These cash flow projections are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions including operating results, business plans and future cash flows. Intangible assets are initially valued at fair market value using generally accepted valuation methods appropriate for the type of intangible asset. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over the estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment, if indicators of impairment arise. The evaluation of impairment is based upon a comparison of the carrying amount of the intangible asset to the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is considered impaired. The impairment expense is determined by comparing the estimated fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying value, with any shortfall from fair value recognized as an expense in the current period. Amortization of the Company’s definite lived intangible assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Income taxes

In determining taxable income for financial statement reporting purposes, we make certain estimates and judgments. These estimates and judgments are applied in the calculation of certain tax liabilities and in the determination of the recoverability of deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial statement reporting purposes. In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax rules and the potential for future adjustment of our uncertain tax positions by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing jurisdiction. If our estimates of these taxes are greater or less than actual results, an additional tax benefit or charge will result.

We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. We consider estimated future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax

16

planning strategies, including reversals of deferred tax liabilities and tax holiday periods in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. If we determine that we will not realize all or part of our deferred tax assets in the future, we make an adjustment to the carrying value of the deferred tax asset, which would be reflected as income tax expense. Conversely, if we determine that we will realize a deferred tax asset, which currently has a valuation allowance, we reverse the valuation allowance which would be reflected as an income tax benefit or as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity for tax assets related to stock options. We have recorded a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at entities or units that have been unprofitable and where we believe that such assets may not be utilized in the near term.

Derivative instruments and hedging activities

The Company purchases forward foreign exchange contracts/option contracts (derivatives) to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on accounts receivable and forecasted cash flows denominated in certain foreign currencies.

The Company designates derivative contracts as cash flow hedges if they satisfy the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Changes in fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are deferred and recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (losses), net of taxes until the hedged transactions occur and are then recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income included in other income (expense), net. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the ineffective portion of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and are included in other income (expense), net.

With respect to derivatives designated as hedges, the Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company also formally assesses both at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis, whether each derivative is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative or a portion thereof is not highly effective as a hedge, or if a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, the Company prospectively discontinues hedge accounting with respect to that derivative.

In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative is retained, the Company continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet and recognizes any subsequent change in its fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Income. When it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting and recognizes immediately in the Consolidated Statement of Income the gains and losses attributable to such derivative that were accumulated in other comprehensive income.

Stock based compensation

Effective January 1, 2006 we adopted revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments, including grants of stock options, restricted stock units and employee stock purchase rights, to be recognized in our financial statements based on their respective grant date fair values. Under this standard, the fair value of each employee stock option and employee stock purchase right is estimated on the date of grant using an option pricing model that meets certain requirements.

We currently use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of our share-based payments. The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards utilizing the Black-Scholes model is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility of our stock options at grant date based

17

on the historical traded prices of our stock as the expected volatility assumption required in the Black-Scholes model. The expected life of the stock options is based on historical and other data including life of the option and vesting period. The risk-free interest rate assumption is the implied yield currently available on zero-coupon government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term. The dividend yield assumption is based on our history and expectation of dividend payouts. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in our financial statements in 2006 and thereafter was based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The amount of stock-based compensation expense in 2006 and thereafter was reduced for estimated forfeitures based on historical experience. Forfeitures are required to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ significantly from those estimated.

We evaluate the assumptions used to value stock-based awards on a periodic basis. If factors change and we employ different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the past. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying unvested securities, we may be required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense. To the extent that we grant additional equity securities to employees or we assume unvested securities in connection with any acquisitions, our stock-based compensation expense will be increased by the additional unearned compensation resulting from those additional grants or acquisitions.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property and equipment, carrying amount of property and equipment, intangibles and goodwill, valuation allowance for receivables and deferred tax assets, valuation of derivative instruments, valuation of share-based compensation, assets and obligations related to employee benefits, income tax uncertainties and other contingencies and commitments. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Although these estimates are based upon management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008 were $218.8 million, an increase of $17.1 million or 8.5%, as compared to $201.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our revenue increase for the periods presented is directly attributable to a combination of increased business with our recurring customers which contributed an increase of $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, and the balance from new customer wins. There was an increase in billable headcount from 5,765 as of December 31, 2007 to 6,141 as of December 31, 2008. The increase in billable headcount directly resulted in increased billable hours and a corresponding increase in revenue. Our top ten customers accounted for 73.8% and 65.5% of the revenue for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The gross margin as a percentage of sales (“gross margin percentage”) was 37.6% for the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to 32.3% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The increase in gross margin percentage was largely attributable to an increase in realized rates for offshore and onsite work and improved utilization. The average onsite and offshore rates improved by 5.0% and 1.5%, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2008 over the year ended December 31, 2007. The volume of work done offshore increased from 76.5% to 78.2%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) include all costs that are not directly associated with revenue generating activities. S,G&A expenses include employee costs, corporate costs and facilities costs. Employee costs include administrative salaries and related employee benefits, travel, recruiting and training costs. Corporate costs include costs such as legal, accounting and outside consulting fees. Facilities costs primarily include rent and communications costs.

S,G&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2008 were $45.3 million or 20.7% of revenues, as compared to $42.5 million or 21.1% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our net employee costs increased approximately $0.2 million for the year as compared to the prior year. Our net corporate costs decreased by $0.4 million due to decrease in accounting and insurance of $1.0 million, which was offset by an increase in bad debt expense. Our facilities costs increased $3.1 million mainly due to increases in rental and communication related expenses.

19

Depreciation and amortization cost was $9.3 million or 4.3% of revenue, as compared to $10.4 million or 5.2% of revenue a decrease of $1.1 million.

In June 2007, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $2.0 million, related to our July 2006 acquisition of LoanPro. This impairment charge was not considered as part of our discussion of S,G&A cost and was recorded on a separate line item on our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Operating income percentage was 12.7% for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to 4.7% for the year ended December 31, 2007. This increase was due primarily to the increase in gross margin by 5.3% and the decrease in S,G&A costs as a percentage of revenue by 0.4%. The increase in operating income percentage was mainly due to increases in revenues and gross margins.

Other Income (Expense) Components

Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2008, totaled $2.7 million, compared to $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. The following paragraphs discuss significant components of other income (expense) and changes within each of the years presented.

In 2008, our investment income totaled $2.7 million as compared to $3.9 million for 2007. The decrease was due to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and short term investment from $72.0 million in December 31, 2007 to $65.5 million in December 31, 2008. The decrease in cash was due to $30.8 million spent to purchase shares from minority shareholders in iGS. In 2008, we recognized $3.7 million of favorable foreign currency gain related to our intercompany debt in India which was offset by $4.6 million of realized loss on our hedges. In 2007, we recognized $0.3 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation losses related to our intercompany debt with India which was offset by $2.4 million of realized gain on our hedges. As of December 31, 2008, all of our outstanding forward contracts met the qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting.

During the year ended December 31, 2008 there was a gain of $0.4 million on termination of land sale contract. During June 2007 we took an investment write off for $0.6 million.

Minority interest expense was $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 and relates to the minority interest portion of the income of iGS. Minority interest expense was $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 also related to the income of iGS. This has reduced due to the acquisition of minority interest in our subsidiary iGS during the year as part of delisting from Indian Stock Exchanges.

Income Taxes

Federal income taxes calculated at the U.S. statutory rate were $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. State income taxes which totaled $0.1 million for 2008 were calculated using a blended statutory rate, and are net of federal income tax benefit. Our income tax provision was $0.7 million at an effective rate of 2.3% for the year.

Several items caused variations from our statutory tax provision. iGS is eligible to claim a tax holiday on the majority of its operating income through March 2010. Taxable income for determining the income tax provision of iGS includes non operating income, such as interest income and capital gains income and operating income of one of its units for which tax holiday has expired. The tax holiday resulted in a benefit of $8.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Other variations typically arise because certain expenses or benefits recorded to our financial statements are either limited or disallowed when calculating our income tax provision. Certain expenses such as minority interest expense are not deductible at all. In addition to these limited or disallowed deductions, valuation allowances have been provided against certain deductions for which the recognition of the corresponding tax benefit is unlikely.

20

These deductions include net operating losses realized by iGS’s U.S. Branch and capital gains / losses realized from the disposition of certain subsidiary and equity investments. The aggregate impact of these variations on the Company’s effective tax rate was a benefit of $1.3 million.

Federal income taxes calculated at the U.S. statutory rate were $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. State income taxes which totaled $0.1 million for 2007 were calculated using a blended statutory rate, and are net of federal income tax benefit. Our income tax provision was $1.8 million at an effective rate of 14.4% for the year.

Several items caused variations from our statutory tax provision. iGS is eligible to claim a tax holiday on the majority of its operating income through March 2010. The tax holiday resulted in a benefit of $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. iGS’ non-operating income, such as interest income, is not included in the tax holiday, and has been considered as part of our income tax provision.

Other variations typically arise because certain expenses or benefits recorded to our financial statements are either limited or disallowed when calculating our income tax provision. Certain expenses such as minority interest expense are not deductible at all. In addition to these limited or disallowed deductions, valuation allowances have been provided against certain deductions for which the recognition of the corresponding tax benefit is unlikely. These deductions include net operating losses realized by iGS’s U.S. Branch and capital losses realized from the disposition of certain subsidiary and equity investments. The aggregate impact of these variations on the Company’s effective tax rate was $2.0 million.

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $201.7 million, an increase of $31.3 million or 18.4%, as compared to $170.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our revenue increase for the periods presented is directly attributable to a combination of increased business with our recurring customers which contributed an increase of $27.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the balance from new customer wins. There was an increase in billable headcount from 5,299 as of December 31, 2006 to 5,765 as of

21

December 31, 2007. This resulted in increased billable hours and a corresponding increase in revenue. Revenues from the top 10 customers increased by more than $20 million from the prior year.

The gross margin as a percentage of sales (“gross margin percentage”) was 32.3% for the year ended December 31, 2007, as compared to 28.2% for the year ended December 31, 2006. This improvement was due primarily to the increasing mix of higher profit margin projects from existing customers, higher offshore and onsite billing rates, higher offshore volumes and improved resource utilization. The average onsite and offshore rates improved by 6.7% and 4.2%, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2007 over the year ended December 31, 2006 this improvement was due primarily to the increasing mix of higher profit margin projects from existing customers, higher offshore and onsite billing rates, higher offshore volumes and improved resource utilization. The volume of work done offshore increased from 72.8% to 76.5%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) include all costs that are not directly associated with revenue generating consultants. S,G&A expenses include employee costs, corporate costs and facilities costs. Employee costs include administrative salaries and related employee benefits, travel, recruiting and training costs. Corporate costs include costs such as legal, accounting and outside consulting fees. Facilities costs include rent and communications costs. S,G&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $42.5 million or 21.1% of revenues, as compared to $40.5 million or 23.8% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006. Our employee cost increased approximately $0.4 million for the year ended as compared to the prior year. Our net corporate cost increased approximately $0.1 million for the year due to increases in bad debt expense and legal and accounting costs. Our net facilities costs increased $1.5 million mainly due to increases in rent and non-capital equipment expenditures at our new campus in Bangalore, India.

Depreciation and amortization cost was $10.4 million or 5.2% of revenue, as compared to $10.3 million or 6.0% of revenue.

In June 2007, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $2.0 million, related to our July 2006 acquisition of LoanPro. This impairment charge was not considered as part of our discussion of iGS’ S,G&A cost and was recorded on a separate line item on our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Operating income percentage was 4.7% for the year ended December 31, 2007 as against operating loss percentage of 0.2% for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in operating income percentage was mainly due to significant increases in revenues and gross margins.

Other Income (Expense) Components

Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2007, totaled $5.9 million, compared to $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The following paragraphs discuss significant components of other income (expense) and changes within each of the years presented.

In 2007, our interest income totaled $3.9 million as compared to $3.1 million for 2006. The increase was due to increased investment yields as well as increases in invested cash during 2007 as our cash flows increased during 2007, allowing us to invest additional cash. In 2007, we recognized $0.3 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation losses related to our intercompany debt with India which was offset by $2.4 million of realized gain on our hedges. In 2006, we recognized $0.5 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation losses related to our intercompany debt with India, which was offset by $1.2 million of realized gain on our hedges. As of July 1, 2007, our hedging activities met the minimum requirements for effective hedge accounting treatment under current accounting rules. As a result, from July 1, 2007 onwards, we only recognize realized gains or losses as current period income or loss.

In 2007, we recorded an impairment charge in our investment in Concours of $0.6 million, which was offset by a gain of $0.4 million from an escrow account related to a prior sale of a business. In 2006, we sold our

22

investment in Brainbench for $0.6 million. These gain and losses are included as a component of Gain (loss) on Venture Investments and Affiliated Companies in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

We recognized income on affiliated companies of less than $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. All activity in both periods was related to our investment in the Software AG joint venture.

Minority interest expense was $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and relates to the minority interest portion of the income of iGS. Minority interest expense was $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 also related to the income of iGS. The year over year increase in minority interest expense was directly attributable to the greater profitability of iGS in 2007.

Income Taxes

Federal income taxes calculated at the U.S. statutory rate were $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. State income taxes which totaled $0.1 million for 2007, were calculated using a blended statutory rate, and are net of federal income tax benefit. Our income tax provision was $1.8 million at an effective rate of 14.4% for the year.

Several items caused variations from our statutory tax provision. iGS is eligible to claim a tax holiday on the majority of its operating income through March 2010. The tax holiday resulted in a benefit of $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. iGS’ non-operating income, such as interest income, is not included in the tax holiday, and has been considered as part of our income tax provision.

Other variations typically arise because certain expenses or benefits recorded to our financial statements are either limited or disallowed when calculating our income tax provision. Certain expenses such as minority interest expense are not deductible at all. In addition to these limited or disallowed deductions, valuation allowances have been provided against certain deductions for which the recognition of the corresponding tax benefit is unlikely. These deductions include net operating losses realized by iGS’s U.S. branch and capital losses realized from the disposition of certain subsidiary and equity investments. The aggregate impact of these variations on the Company’s effective tax rate was $2.0 million.

Federal income taxes calculated at the U.S. statutory rate were $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. State income taxes which totaled $0.2 million for 2006, were calculated using a blended statutory rate, and are net of federal income tax benefit. Our income tax provision was $1.6 million at an effective rate of 46.2% for the year.

Several items caused variations from our statutory tax provision. iGS is eligible to claim a tax holiday on the majority of its operating income through March 2010. The tax holiday resulted in a benefit of $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. iGS’ non-operating income, such as interest income, is not included in the tax holiday, and has been considered as part of our income tax provision.

Other variations typically arise because certain expenses or benefits recorded to our financial statements are either limited or disallowed when calculating our income tax provision. Certain expenses such as minority interest expense are not deductible at all. In addition to these limited or disallowed deductions, valuation allowances have been provided against certain deductions for which the recognition of the corresponding tax benefit is unlikely. These deductions include capital losses realized from the disposition of certain subsidiary and equity investments. The aggregate impact of these variations on the Company’s effective tax rate was $3.9 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2008 we had cash and short-term investments of $30.9 million and $34.6 million, respectively, as compared to cash and short-term investments of $46.7 million and $25.3 million, respectively, at

23

December 31, 2007. Short-term investments at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 consisted mainly of highly liquid short-term investments. Our focus has been liquidity along with the preservation of our principal holdings.

Cash provided by operations is anticipated to be adequate to fund capital expenditures and other business needs over the next 12 months.

On May 21, 2008, iGS entered into a loan agreement with Citibank N.A. that provided for a $6.5 million working capital line of credit. The loan is secured by way of a charge on all of iGS’ present and future receivables, investments, rights to or on moveable properties and moveable current assets. As of December 31, 2008 and for the period from May 21, 2008 through December 31, 2008, iGS did not utilize the line of credit. There is no expiration date for the line of credit and the interest rate would be determined at the time of withdrawal of funds at the then applicable rates.

Cash from Operations

Cash provided by continuing operations was $43.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. Primary factors contributing to our cash provided by continuing operations were net income of $29.3 million for the period, plus significant non cash items of approximately $11.5 million. These non cash items included depreciation and amortization of $9.3 million, stock based compensation expense related to SFAS 123(R) of $4.8 million, deferred rent of $0.6 million, and minority interest of $0.4 million which was offset by deferred tax of $3.6 million.

The net effect on the Company’s working capital items for the year ended December 31, 2008 was a positive $4.7 million. Major changes in working capital were a decrease in prepaid and other current assets of $1.7 million and an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $8.2 million and deferred revenue of $0.3 million which was offset by an increase in accounts and unbilled receivables of $4.9 million, decrease in restructuring reserve of $0.6 million. The increase in accounts receivable was mainly due to an increase in sales partly offset by the decrease in day sales outstanding from 71 days at the end of 2007 to 65 days as of December 31, 2008.

Cash provided by continuing operations was $29.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. Primary factors contributing to our cash provided by operations were net income of $10.5 million for the period, plus significant non cash items of approximately $17.6 million. These non cash items included depreciation and amortization of $10.4 million, stock based compensation expense related to SFAS 123(R) of $3.7 million, impairment of goodwill of $2.0 million, a loss on the write down of an investment of an affiliated company for $0.6 million, and minority interest of $3.0 million, offset by deferred taxes of $2.4 million.

The net effect on the Company’s working capital items for the year ended December 31, 2007 was a positive $2.2 million. Major changes in working capital were a decrease in accounts and unbilled receivables of $4.2 million, in accounts payable and other liabilities of $3.6 million offset by an increase in prepaid assets of $5.7 million. The decrease in accounts receivable was directly related to a significant improvement in our days outstanding, as our days sales outstanding decreased from 75 days at the end of 2006 to 71 days as of December 31, 2007. The increase in prepaid assets consisted primarily of $5.0 million retained in an escrow account in India that was specifically earmarked for the repurchase of shares related to the delisting of iGS. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities was directly related to increased accruals for expenses due to the higher level of business at the end of 2007 versus the prior year end.

Cash provided by continuing operations was $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Primary factors contributing to our cash provided by operations were net income of $1.9 million for the period, plus significant non cash items of approximately $13.0 million. These non cash items included depreciation and amortization of $10.3 million and stock based compensation expense related to SFAS 123(R) of $3.4 million.

24

The net effect on the Company’s working capital items for the year ended December 31, 2006 was a negative $(8.5) million. Major changes in working capital were an increase in accounts and unbilled receivables of $4.5 million, a decrease in restructuring reserves of $4.8 million offset by an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $0.9 million. The increase in accounts receivable was directly related to a higher volume of revenues recorded in the last two months of 2006 versus the last two months of 2005. The decrease in restructuring reserves consisted primarily of cash payments of $1.5 million made during 2006 on previous established reserves and a liability reduction of $2.5 million for the sublease of office space in the UK. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities was directly related to increased accruals for expenses due to the higher level of business at the end of 2006 versus the prior year end.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $53.3 million, as compared to cash used in investing activities of $41.7 million in 2007 and $9.0 million in 2006.

Our capital expenditures were $14.2 million, $8.1 million and $9.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Significant portions of capital expenditures in all three years presented were due to expansion of our campus located in offshore centers in India.

In 2008, we acquired 2.2 million shares of iGS, representing 7% of iGS shares outstanding, from the Indian public at a price of approximately $10 per share and redemption of vested option settlement at a total cost of $30.8 million. The shares were purchased to delist iGS from the Indian stock exchanges. In 2007, we acquired 4.0 million shares of iGS, representing 12.65% shares outstanding of iGS from the Indian public at a cost of $42.2 million at a price of approximately $10.40 per share. Under applicable Indian laws, iGS could be delisted only after iGATE and its affiliates acquired over 90% of iGS’ common stock in accordance with the delisting guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Board of India. In 2006, we acquired cash of $0.3 million as part of our acquisition of an additional 55% of the equity of LoanPro.

We received net cash proceeds from the sale of iCRI of $2.9 million in 2008. In 2006, we sold our remaining interest in Brainbench for $0.6 million.

In 2008, we increased our investment portfolio by $14.6 million. In 2007, we decreased our Investment portfolio by $8.6 million. We increased our investment portfolio by $0.8 million in 2006. In 2007, we used our short-term investments for capital additions for our campus in Bangalore, India. In 2006, we were able to increase our short-term investments due to increases in cash.

Financing Activities

Cash used by financing activities was $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, and cash provided by financing activities of $2.7 million and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Sources of cash related to stock option exercises were $2.0 million, $3.0 million and $1.9 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Tax benefits recognized in conjunction with SFAS 123(R) were $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

On May 21, 2008, iGS entered into a loan agreement with Citibank N.A. that provided for a $6.5 million working capital line of credit. The loan is secured by iGS present and future receivables, investments, rights to or on moveable properties and movable current assets. As of December 31, 2008 iGS did not have any amounts outstanding under the line of credit.

Restructurings

We restructured our businesses in 2007 and 2004. As a result of these restructurings, we will be required to make cash payments in future years. The nature of the payments and the reasons for the restructurings are discussed more fully in Note 24 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table details the cash payments that we will be required to make in the future years:

	2009		2010		2011		2012		2013		Thereafter

Leases costs of office closure		79		85		—		—		—		—
Total	$	186	$	85	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—

Contractual Obligations

We also have financial commitments related to existing leases on our occupied space. Our commitments are as follows:

	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
	(Dollars in thousands)
Operating lease obligations	$	15,287	$	3,642	$	5,310	$	4,627	$	1,708

The Company is expanding Phase IV of its campus located in Bangalore, India. Total remaining estimated costs of the project will approximate $7.3 million at December 31, 2008 and will be paid out over the next 6 months. In January 2009, approximately $0.7 million was incurred towards this project. Phase I was completed in February 2004, Phase II was completed in December 2005 and Phase III was completed in January 2007. The Company has funded the entire project to date through a combination of available cash reserves and short term investments and expects to fund the costs of Phase IV through its net cash flows provided by operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Seasonality

Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants’ billable hours are affected by national holidays and vacation policies, which vary by country.

Economic Trends and Outlook

The outlook with respect to global spending on IT services is mixed. According to a forecast from IDC in November 2008, worldwide IT spending will grow 2.6% year over year in 2009. According to the Global IT Market Outlook for 2009, published by Forrester Research, Inc. in January 2009, global IT services and outsourcing spend is estimated to be approximately $484 billion, 3 percent less than in 2008. It is expected that IT outsourcing services will perform slightly better than IT consulting and systems integration services, as the latter is vulnerable to a reduced demand for software purchases to be implemented and integrated.

A majority of our business comes from the United States, which is currently going through an economic downturn. The majority of our top 10 customers are United States companies, and any negative impact in their business can result in reduced demand for our services, which would substantially also affect our future revenues and margins.

26

We believe that our business model is somewhat diversified, both geographically and operationally—we serve both IT and IT enabled solutions, and have opened centers in both Mexico and Australia. We believe our strategy of a Global delivery model positions us well to provide a greater breadth of services in catering to market needs and opportunities, even with substantial uncertainty in the current outlook with respect to global IT spending.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition-related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer’s income tax valuation allowance. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will adopt this statement for all acquisitions consummated beginning January 1, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). The standard changes the accounting for noncontrolling (minority) interests in consolidated financial statements, including the requirements to classify noncontrolling interests as a component of consolidated stockholders’ equity and the elimination of “minority interest” accounting in results of operations with earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests reported as part of consolidated earnings. Additionally, SFAS No. 160 revises the accounting for both increases and decreases in a parent’s controlling ownership interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this statement on its financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP No. 142-3”). FSP No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations. FSP No. 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe that adoption of this accounting standard effective January 1, 2009 will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 162 becomes effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company does not expect that the adoption of this statement will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk Factors

We are exposed to market risks from adverse changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, especially the Indian Rupee (“Rupee”). Our exchange rate risk arises from our foreign currency revenues, receivables and payables. We have sought to reduce the effect of any currency exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations by purchasing forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange options to cover a portion of our expected cash flows. These instruments typically have maturities of one to three years. We use these instruments as economic hedges and not for speculative purposes and they qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133. We do not engage in speculative or leveraged transactions, nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

Foreign Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The Company’s cash flow and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variation mainly between the Rupee and the U.S. Dollar (the “USD”). This foreign currency risk exists based upon the nature of the Company’s operations. The majority of the Company’s customers and revenue are U.S. based, which provides an inherent foreign currency risk between USD and Rupee exchange rates. We attempt to limit our exposure to changing Rupee rates mainly through financial market transactions.

We enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on inter-company transactions and forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies. All of these transactions meet the criteria for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. We designate contracts as cash flow hedges if they satisfy the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS 133. Changes in the fair value of these hedges are deferred and recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (losses), until the hedged transaction occur and are then recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Changes in fair value for the ineffective portion of hedging instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income of each period and are included in other income (expense), net.

We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedge items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions with respect to derivatives designated as hedges. In addition, we formally assess both at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis, whether each derivative is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative or a portion thereof is not highly effective as a hedge, or if a derivative ceases to be highly effective hedge, we will prospectively discontinue hedge accounting with respect to that derivative.

In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative is retained, we continue to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet and recognize any subsequent change in its fair value in the consolidated statement of income. When it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, we discontinue the hedge accounting and recognize immediately in the consolidated statement of income the gains and losses attributable to such derivative that were accumulated in other comprehensive income.

As of December 31, 2008, iGS’ forward contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows will all mature by April 30, 2010. As each contract matures, iGS will receive Rupees at the contracted rate (“strike price”) while delivering either the USD or Canadian Dollar (“CAD”) equivalent of Rupees at the prevailing Rupee exchange rate. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive income and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in “other income, net”. As of December 31, 2008 all of the contracts outstanding met qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and have been effective. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2008, iGS has appropriately recorded other comprehensive loss of $0.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2007, iGS recognized other comprehensive gain of $0.3 million.

As of December 31, 2008, iGS’ option contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows will all mature by August 31, 2009. As each contract matures and dependent upon prevailing Rupee exchange rates, iGS will sell USDs or CADs at each contracted “put” strike price. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive income and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in “other income and expense”. As of December 31, 2008 all the contracts met qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and have been deemed to be effective. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2008, iGS has appropriately recorded other comprehensive loss of $10.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2007, iGS recognized other comprehensive gain of $1.2 million.

Substantially all of the Company’s foreign affiliates’ financial instruments are denominated in their respective functional currencies (See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its investing activities used to maintain liquidity and fund business operations. The nature and amount of the Company’s long-term and short-

29

term debt can be expected to vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors.

Effect of Hypothetical 10% Fluctuation In Market Prices

Our primary net foreign currency exposure is the Rupee. The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

As of December 31, 2008, the potential gain or loss in the fair value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency contracts assuming hypothetical 10%, 5%, 2% and 1% fluctuations in currency rates would be approximately (in millions):

	Valuation given X% decrease in Rupee / USD rate											Fair Value as of December 31, 2008			Valuation given X% increase in Rupee / USD rate
	(10%)		(5%)			(2%)			(1%)						1%			2%			5%			10%
Rupee to USD rate		43.839		46.275			47.736			48.223			48.710			49.197			49.684			51.146			53.581
Derivative Instruments	$	0.1	$	(6.2	)	$	(10.0	)	$	(11.3	)	$	(11.3	)	$	(13.8	)	$	(15.1	)	$	(18.8	)	$	(25.1	)

However, it should be noted that any change in the fair value of the contracts, real or hypothetical, would be significantly offset by an inverse change in the value of the underlying hedged items. In relation to currency contracts, this hypothetical calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the USD.

Inflation

We do not believe that inflation had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to minimize any effects of inflation on our operating results by controlling operating costs and whenever possible, seeking to insure that billing rates reflect increases in costs due to inflation.

For all significant foreign operations, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each period end. Statement of Income accounts are translated at the average exchange rate prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in other income, net for the periods presented.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2008

1. Company overview and summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1.1 Company Overview

iGATE Corporation (“iGATE” or the “Company”) is leading provider of Information Technology (“IT”) and IT enabled operations offshore outsourcing solutions services to large and medium-size organizations. iGATE provides end-to-end business solutions that leverage technology thus enabling its clients to enhance business performance.

On July 31, 2008, the Company completed the divestiture and sale of iGATE Clinical Research International Inc and iGATE Clinical Research International Private Limited (collectively, “iCRI’”), its clinical research business, and on September 30, 2008, the Company completed the spin-off of its professional services business segment (“iPS”). In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”, the assets and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of iCRI and iPS have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented through the date of sale and spin-off. Cash flows of iCRI and iPS have been segregated in the consolidated statement of cash flows as separate line items within operating, investing and financing activities.

1.2 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements and Principals of Consolidation

The accompanying financial data has been prepared by us in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis and reflect the financial statements of iGATE and all of its subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned and 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. All inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

1.3 Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property and equipment, carrying amount of property and equipment, intangibles and goodwill, valuation allowance for receivables and deferred tax assets, valuation of derivative instruments, valuation of share-based compensation, assets and obligations related to employee benefits, income tax uncertainties and other contingencies and commitments. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Although these estimates are based upon management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from these estimates.

1.4 Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue on time-and-material contracts as the services are performed. We recognize revenues on fixed-price contracts using the proportional performance method. We determine performance by comparing the actual cost of work performed to date to the estimated total cost for each contract. If our cost estimates indicate a loss on a particular fixed price contract, we record a provision for the estimated loss without regard to

39

iGATE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

DECEMBER 31, 2008

the stage of completion. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, we recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract. We also bill customers based on a transaction fee basis. Revenue from these unit prices contracts are recognized on rendering of the services as per the terms of the contract.

1.5 Cash and cash equivalents

The Company classifies all highly liquid investments, including fixed term deposits, with original maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash equivalents.

1.6 Short term investments

Short-term investments consist of mutual funds and are stated at fair value. Such investments also include fixed term deposits that mature within one year but do not otherwise qualify as cash equivalents.

The Company accounts for its investments in mutual funds in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (“SFAS 115”). These investments are recorded at fair value, with the unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The unrealized gain or loss is the difference between the Company’s original cost for an investment and the investment’s fair value at each reporting period. Realized gains or losses on securities sold are calculated using the specific identification method.

1.7 Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investments in equity shares of unconsolidated entities that are not quoted or publicly traded in which the Company owns less than 20% of the voting interest are accounted for at cost. For investments in entities in which the Company owns between 20% and 50% of the voting interest or otherwise acquires management influence are accounted for using the equity method and initially recognized at cost. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of the post acquisition profits and losses is recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

1.8 Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Revenues

The Company extends credit to clients based upon management’s assessment of their creditworthiness. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues (and the resulting accounts receivable) are from Global 2000 companies, major systems integrators and governmental agencies.

Unbilled receivables represent amounts recognized as revenues for the periods presented based on services performed in accordance with the terms of client contracts that will be invoiced in subsequent periods.

1.9 Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

Accounts receivables are reviewed periodically to determine the probability of loss. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined using the combination of the specific identification method for balances deemed uncollectible, as well as judgments made by the Company based upon historical and expected collection experience.

1.10 Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company provides for depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Upon disposal, assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Company’s accounts and the resulting gains and losses are reflected in current earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Improvement and betterments that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the related asset.

The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

Building	25 years
Computer equipment	1.5 – 3 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Vehicles	5 years
Leasehold improvements	Shorter of the life of the improvement or lease term ranging from 3 to 10 years

Advances paid towards the acquisition of property and equipment and the cost of property and equipment not put to use before the balance sheet date are disclosed under the caption capital work-in-progress in Note 11.

Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment if indicators of impairment arise. There were no impairment charges related to property and equipment recognized during the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.

Software that has been purchased is included in property and equipment and is amortized using the straight-line method over two years.

Costs of improvements that substantially extend the useful life of particular assets are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance cost are charged to earnings when incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated financial statements upon sale or disposition of the asset.

1.11 Accounting for leases

The Company leases its delivery centers and office facilities under operating lease agreements that are renewable on a periodic basis at the option of the lessor and the lessee. The lease agreements contain rent free periods and rent escalation clauses. Lease payments under operating leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

1.12 Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if indicators arise. The evaluation is based upon a comparison of the estimated fair value to the carrying value of the assets and liabilities. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated based upon the market capitalization and discounted future cash flow analysis. Intangible assets are initially valued at fair market value using generally accepted valuation methods appropriate for the type of intangible asset. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over the estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment, if indicators of impairment arise. If

41

iGATE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

DECEMBER 31, 2008

estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is considered impaired. The impairment expense is determined by comparing the estimated fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying value, with any shortfall from fair value recognized as an expense in the current period. Amortization of the Company’s definite lived intangible assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which are as follows:

Intellectual property	3–5 years
Customer relationships	3–6 years
Beneficial employment contracts	2–4 years

1.13 Foreign currency

The consolidated financial statements are reported in U.S. Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. The functional currency for foreign subsidiaries is their respective local currency. The translation of the functional currencies of the respective subsidiaries into U.S. Dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using the exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date and for revenues and expense accounts using a monthly average exchange rate prevailing during the respective period. The gains or losses resulting from such translation are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Monetary assets and liabilities of each subsidiary denominated in currencies other than the subsidiary’s functional currency are translated into the respective functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. The gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

1.14 Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the diluted weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution from equity shares issuable through employee stock options by application of the treasury stock method.

1.15 Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method as described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of changes in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits of which future realization is not more likely than not. Changes in valuation allowance from period to period are reflected in the income statement of the period of change. Deferred taxes are not provided on the

undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries where it is expected that the earnings of the foreign subsidiary will be indefinitely reinvested. Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee stock options in excess of compensation charged to earnings are credited to additional paid in capital.

The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, on January 1, 2007. This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes and prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Accounting and disclosures of tax positions taken or expected to be taken by the Company are based on the recognition threshold and measurement attribute prescribed by FIN 48.

1.16 Derivative instruments and hedging activities

The Company purchases forward foreign exchange contracts/option contracts (derivatives) to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates on accounts receivable and forecasted cash flows denominated in certain foreign currencies.

The Company designates derivative contracts as cash flow hedges if they satisfy the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Changes in fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are deferred and recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (losses), net of taxes until the hedged transactions occur and are then recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income included in other income (expense), net. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the ineffective portion of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and are included in other income (expense), net.

1.17 Stock based compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004) as amended, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), and superseded APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123 (R) requires compensation costs related to share-based transactions, including employee share options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on its fair value. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (R) using the modified prospective application method. Under this transition method, the compensation cost recognized beginning January 1, 2006 includes compensation cost for (i) all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (ii) all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Additionally, upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company began to recognize compensation expense for stock options net of estimated forfeitures. SFAS No. 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As a result the expense has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Stock-based compensation recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest.

The Company elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model to determine the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant. Under the fair value method, the estimated fair value of awards is recorded as an expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting term.

1.18 Employee benefits

Defined Contribution Plans

Eligible employees of the Company in India receive benefits from the Provident Fund, administered by the Government of India, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the employees and the Company make monthly contributions to the Provident Fund equal to a specified percentage of the eligible employees’ salary.

Eligible United States employees of the Company participate in a employee retirement savings plan (“the Plan”) under Section 401(k) of the United States Internal Revenue Code (“the Code”). The Plan allows for employees to defer a portion of their annual earnings on a pre-tax basis through voluntary contributions to the Plan. The Plan does not provide for any Company matching.

The Company has no further obligation under defined contribution plans beyond the contributions made under these plans. Contributions are charged to income in the year in which they are incurred and are included in the consolidated statements of income.

Defined Benefit Plans

Employees in India are entitled to benefits under the Gratuity Act, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees of the Company. The plan provides for a lump-sum payment to eligible employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or on termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and tenure of employment. In India, contributions are made to funds administered and managed by the ING Vysya Life Insurance Company Ltd. (“Fund Administrator”) to fund the gratuity liability of the Indian subsidiaries. Under this scheme, the obligation to pay gratuity remains with the Company, although the Fund Administrator administer the scheme.

On December 31, 2008, the Company adopted the recognition, measurement and disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (“SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158 required the Company to recognize the funded status (i.e., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) of its pension plan in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 did not result in any significant adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income. The liability in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated annually by the Company using the projected unit credit method. Prior service cost, if any, resulting from an amendment to a plan is recognized and amortized over the remaining period of service of the covered employees. Additionally, the Company records the funded status of its defined benefit pension as a liability on its consolidated balance sheet with a corresponding offset, net of taxes, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity.

1.19 Fair value of financial instruments and concentration of credit risk

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, employee receivables, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. By their nature, all

44

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

such instruments involve risks including credit risks of non-performance by counterparties. A substantial portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested with nationally recognized banks located in the United States and India. A portion of the surplus funds are also invested in mutual funds and time deposits with nationally recognized banks in India. Accounts receivable are unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers in industries based primarily in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. The Company monitors the credit worthiness of its customers to whom it grants credit terms in the normal course of its business. Management believes there is no significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance of the counter parties to these financial instruments, other than the amounts already provided for in the consolidated financial statements.

1.20 Commitments

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with the same are expensed as incurred.

1.21 Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition-related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer’s income tax valuation allowance. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will adopt this standard for all acquisitions consummated beginning January 1, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). The standard changes the accounting for noncontrolling (minority) interests in consolidated financial statements, including the requirements to classify noncontrolling interests as a component of consolidated stockholders’ equity and the elimination of “minority interest” accounting in results of operations with earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests reported as part of consolidated earnings. Additionally, SFAS No. 160 revises the accounting for both increases and decreases in a parent’s controlling ownership interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this statement on its consolidated financial statements.

DECEMBER 31, 2008

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP No. 142-3”). FSP No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141 (R), “Business Combinations”. FSP No. 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe that adoption of this accounting standard effective January 1, 2009 will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 162 becomes effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Acquisition of stock from minority shareholders

In 2007, the Company, being the largest shareholder in iGATE Global Solutions Limited (iGS), decided to delist iGS from the Indian stock exchanges. As per the delisting guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Board of India, iGS could be delisted only after iGATE and its affiliates acquired over 90% of iGS’ common stock. The Company increased its ownership in iGS to 99.99% and 93.4% as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company is currently in the process of acquiring the remaining outstanding minority shares. The delisting process began in 2007 and the total cost of acquisition of shares through December 31, 2008 is approximately $64.6 million, including $0.2 million payable to the remaining minority shareholders, which is included in other current liabilities. The total estimated cost of acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a determination of their fair value. The following table summarizes the allocation (in thousands).

	Amount
Minority interest	$	19,234
Intangible (customer relationships)		4,352
Land		4,074
Building and other assets		2,067
Goodwill		26,569
Reversal of deferred tax liability on iGS dilution gain		9,710
Deferred tax liability		(1,418	)
Total purchase consideration	$	64,588

The Board of Directors of iGS in its meeting held on October 16, 2008 approved consolidation of the face value of the iGS share from Rs 4 to Rs 200,000 per share which was approved by the members of iGS in its Extraordinary General Meeting held on November 7, 2008. The consolidation exercise resulted in fraction shares and the fraction shares were pooled together and sold to iGATE Corp. and iGATE Inc. by the Trustee appointed by the Board of iGS at the rate of Rs 410 per share of face value of Rs 4 each, which was the same price paid to

the public shareholders in the reverse book building exercise conducted under the SEBI (Delisting of Securities) Guidelines 2003 in December 2007. After the consolidation exercise, there are only two shareholders in iGS i.e.; iGATE Inc. holding 75.20% and iGATE Corp. holding 24.79% of the equity capital of the Company.

3. Business Combination

On April 24, 2006, iGS entered into a Master Services Agreement with LoanPro, LLC (“LoanPro”) to perform offshore mortgage servicing. In conjunction with this agreement, iGS acquired a 5% ownership interest in LoanPro for a nominal amount with the option to acquire up to an additional 55%. iGS exercised this option on July 1, 2006 and acquired the additional 55% of LoanPro for a nominal amount. In the third quarter of 2006, the Company began to consolidate LoanPro’s operations. The net assets acquired were not significant and did not require a purchase price allocation. This acquisition resulted in goodwill of approximately $2 million.

LoanPro lost its largest customer in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 and as a result of this triggering event, the Company reassessed the carrying value of the goodwill associated with this acquisition was impaired and written off.

As of December 31, 2008, LoanPro has been dissolved.

4. Discontinued Operations

On July 31, 2008, the Company completed the divestiture and sale of iCRI for cash consideration of approximately $3.6 million which includes cash transfer of $0.7 million. This sale resulted in a gain of approximately $ 1.8 million, which is been included in income from discontinued operations.

On February 26, 2008, the Board of Directors of iGATE authorized management to pursue the divestiture of the iPS segment, either through a sale or a tax-free separation where the Professional Services business, subject to certain conditions, would be contributed to a new corporation known as Mastech Holdings Inc. (“Mastech”) and such corporation’s common stock would be distributed to iGATE’s shareholders, creating a separate public company with its own management and board of directors. On September 4, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized management to utilize a tax-free separation for the divestiture and declared a stock dividend consisting of 1 share of Mastech for each 15 shares of iGATE.

On September 30, 2008, the Company completed the spin-off of Mastech. The distribution of common stock of the newly formed company was considered a tax free transaction for the Company. The Company incurred costs of approximately $3.2 million including amounts associated with investment banking fees and other transaction costs related to the spin-off, which are included in income from discontinued operations. iGATE has continued to provide Mastech employees with coverage under iGATE employee benefit plans through December 31, 2008 and has been reimbursed by Mastech for premiums and costs related to such services and coverage.

In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue no. 03-13, “Applying the Conditions in Paragraph 42 of FASB Statement No. 144 in Determining Whether to Report Discontinued Operations” the Company determined that the outsourcing services provided by iGS to Mastech are not significant and hence do not result in significant continuing involvement in the operations of Mastech. These services are provided in the normal course of business and are expected to continue post spin-off.

7. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for on the cost basis in Air2Web, Inc., Peopleclick, Inc., and The Concours Group. The carrying value of such investments at December 31, 2008 and 2007 is nil because in prior periods the Company had recorded an impairment write-off on these investments, including approximately $0.6 million in 2007.

Software AG (India) Private Limited was a joint venture between the Company and Software AG, a German corporation, where the Company held 49% ownership. The Company’s investment in the joint venture had been accounted for under the equity method and the carrying value of the investment at December 31, 2007 was approximately $0.9 million. On March 14, 2008, the Company terminated its joint venture agreement with Software AG and sold its interest in the joint venture to Software AG resulting in a gain of approximately $0.1 million. Equity income related to the investment in Software AG was less than $0.1 million in 2008 and 2007 and approximately $0.3 million in 2006.

8. Accounts receivable and unbilled revenues

The Company extends credit to clients based upon management’s assessment of their creditworthiness. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues (and the resulting billed accounts receivable and unbilled receivable) are from Global 2000 companies, major systems integrators and governmental agencies. Unbilled receivables represent amounts recognized as revenues for the periods presented based on services performed in accordance with the terms of client contracts that will be invoiced in subsequent periods.

Receivables are reviewed periodically to determine the probability of loss. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined using the combination of the specific identification method for balances deemed uncollectible, as well as judgments made by the Company based upon historical and expected charge-off experience.

The following table provides details of the allowance for doubtful accounts as recorded by the Company (in thousands):

As of December 31,	Balance at the beginning of the year		Additions charged to cost and expense		(Deductions) Recoveries			Balance at the end of the year
2006	$	625	$	423	$	(704	)	$	344
2007	$	344	$	246	$	15		$	605
2008	$	605	$	1,010	$	(309	)	$	1,306

As of December 31, 2008, iGS’ forward contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows will all mature by April 20, 2010. As each contract matures, iGS will receive Rupees at the contracted rate (“strike price”) while delivering either the U.S. Dollar (“USD”) or Canadian Dollar (“CAD”) equivalent of Rupees at the prevailing Rupee exchange rate. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive income and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in “other income, net”. At December 31, 2008 all of the contracts outstanding met qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and have been effective. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2008, iGS has appropriately recorded other comprehensive loss of $0.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2007, iGS recognized other comprehensive gain of $0.3 million.

As of December 31, 2008, iGS’ option contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows will all mature by August 31, 2009. As each contract matures and dependent upon prevailing Rupee exchange rates, iGS will sell USDs or CADs at each contracted “put” strike price. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive income and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in “other income, net”. At December 31, 2008 all the contracts met qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and have been deemed to be effective. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2008, iGS has recorded other comprehensive loss of $10.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2007, iGS recognized other comprehensive gain of $1.2 million.

DECEMBER 31, 2008

The weighted average assumptions used in accounting for the Gratuity Plan for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 are presented below:

	Year ended December 31,
	2008	2007	2006
Discount rate	9.5%	8%	8%
Rate of increase in compensation per annum	12% - 5 years	7.5 % - 5 years	7.5 % - 5 years
	10% - thereafter	5 % thereafter	5 % thereafter
Expected long term rate of return on plan assets per annum	9.5%	8%	8%

The Company evaluates these assumptions annually based on its long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards. The estimates of future salary increases, considered in the actuarial valuation, take account of historical compensation increases, inflation rate, seniority, promotions and other relevant factors such as supply and demand factors in the employment market. The discount rate is based on the sum of the risk free rate and the interest rate on high quality fixed income securities. The Company has invested the plan assets with ING Vysya Life Insurance Co. Ltd. The expected rate of return on the plan assets has been determined considering the plan asset allocation, historical rates of return earned on such plan assets and current market trends. Plan assets are primarily invested in long-term fixed income securities and to a lesser extent in money market funds.

Unrecognized actuarial loss is amortized over the average remaining service period of the employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.

The following benefit payments reflect expected future service, as appropriate, which are expected to be paid during the years shown (in thousands).

iGS/iGATE Exchange Options

Consequent to the delisting of iGS from the Indian stock exchanges, iGS exchanged 2.3 million of iGS employee stock options for 2.8 million of iGATE stock options on December 7, 2007. The exchange was not mandatory and was solely the prerogative of each employee. All iGS stock options contained time based vesting provisions and none of them had any performance conditions. Similarly all iGATE options granted in exchange only contain time based service conditions for vesting. The exchange ratio was computed as 1.202 iGATE options for every iGS option. This was arrived considering a price of approximately $10.40 for each for iGS option, and $8.66 for iGATE shares, the closing price of the Company’s stock on December 7, 2007.

The iGATE options issued are replacement awards for original iGS options, and as such, are treated as modification in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R). Hence, the fair value of the exchange options was estimated at the date of exchange and the incremental fair value of $0.5 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards. The Company also paid $8.3 million towards redemption of iGS vested options at their fair market values. The amount was recorded as a reduction of Additional Paid-in Capital in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss).

Pursuant to the delisting of iGS from the Indian stock exchanges and the exchange of iGS stock options with iGATE options, no further options will be granted under any of the iGS stock option plans.

iGATE Corporation Stock Incentive Plans

During 2000, the Company adopted the Second Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provided that up to 14.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock shall be allocated for issuance to directors, executive management and key personnel. This plan expired by its terms on November 3, 2006 and no options have been granted under the Plan since this date.

On May 25, 2006, the 2006 iGATE Corporation Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan” and together with the Plan, the “iGATE Plans”) was approved by the Company’s shareholders. The 2006 Plan replaced the Company’s expired Plan and is substantially similar to it. Revisions were made primarily to address changes in applicable law since 2000. The 2006 Plan provides that up to 14.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock shall be allocated for issuance to officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. At December 31, 2008, there were 10.6 million shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2006 Plan.

iGS also maintains an employee restricted stock unit plan herein referred to as “RSU Plan”. The RSU Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee appointed by the Board of Directors of iGS. The RSU Plan is a separate plan set up in partial modification of the above iGS Plans and provides for the issuance of a maximum of 3.0 million shares of iGS common stock. These restricted stock units are granted at a $0.08 strike price. Restricted stock unit grants for the RSU Plan generally vest over a four year period and expire twelve years from the date of grant or earlier if a holder ceases to be employed by or associated with iGS for any reason.

On October 10, 2006, iGS exchanged approximately 1.75 million of iGS employee stock options for approximately 0.5 million of iGS restricted stock units. The proposed exchange was approved by iGS’s Board on October 10, 2006. The exchange was not mandatory and was solely the prerogative of each employee. At the date of the exchange the iGS closing stock price was $4.20.

The fair value of restricted stock unit grants was estimated using the prevailing market value of iGS common stock at the date of grant. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. A forfeiture rate is also applied to the estimated compensation cost of the granted restricted stock units. Forfeitures are estimated based on voluntary termination behavior, as well as an analysis of actual option forfeitures.

Total available stock options and/or restricted units to be granted for all of the iGS Plans combined cannot exceed 7.5 million shares.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $0.1 million, $1.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The fair value of stock options vested during 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $nil, $3.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

In 2006, the Company recognized $2.8 million of compensation expense associated with the iGS stock option plans in its Consolidated Statements of Income as compared to $3.1 million in 2007. As of December 31, 2008, no additional compensation cost is expected to be recognized for the unvested shares.

The fair value of each option grant under the iGATE Plans and iGS Plans was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. Expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of either the iGATE or iGS common stock and volatility derived from exchange traded options. The average expected life was based on the contractual term of the option and expected employee exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate for each of the iGATE Plans was based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The risk-free rate for each of the iGS Plans was based on an equivalent Indian risk-free rate. Forfeitures are estimated based on voluntary termination behavior, as well as an analysis of actual option forfeitures. The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

Under the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, the Company’s Indian subsidiary is eligible to claim a tax holiday for 10 consecutive assessment years on profits derived from the export of software services from divisions registered under the Software Technology Parks at Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad and Noida. For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 the tax holiday resulted in income tax benefits of $8.6 million, $4.7 million and $3.7 million, respectively, when calculated at the statutory US rate. The majority of the remaining benefits will extend through March 2010. There are no adverse tax effects to be considered from the goodwill impairment as it is included as part of the subsidiary’s tax holiday. Non-operating income, such as interest income and capital gains income along with operating income to the extent of expiry of tax holiday is not included in the tax holiday, and has been considered as part of our income tax provision.

The Company’s Indian subsidiary has net operating loss carry forwards amounting to approximately $16.5 million, which are under litigation with the India Tax authorities and hence a benefit amounting to approximately $5.6 million was not recognized at December 31, 2008.

The US branch of the Company’s Indian subsidiary has approximately $4.3 million of net operating losses available to offset future federal and state taxable income. These losses are due to expire between the years of 2022 and 2025.

The Company has established a partial valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, due to uncertainty regarding their future realization. In assessing the realizability of its deferred tax assets, management considers the projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies. As a result, the Company has created a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at entities or units that have been unprofitable and where it believes that such assets may not be utilized in the near term.

The Company has not provided for U.S. deferred income taxes or foreign withholding tax on basis differences in its non-U.S. subsidiaries of $18.4 million that result primarily from undistributed earnings the

On July 31, 2008, the Company sold off its clinical research business. Additionally, pursuant to an enterprise reorganization, the Company assigned the resources, including employees, relating to the corporate shared service division in the iSS segment to the iGS segment of its business. Also, as more fully explained in Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective September 30, 2008, the Company spun off the iPS segment of its business into a newly formed company known as Mastech Holdings, Inc.

As a consequence of the above mentioned events, currently the business of the Company is comprised solely of the iGS segment.

SFAS No.157 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy based on observable and unobservable inputs, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2—Includes other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace which may require future adjustment based on the attributes of the financial asset and liability being measured or an inactive market transaction.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value is primarily based on internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. In accordance with SFAS 157, the Company measures cash equivalents, marketable securities and foreign currency derivative contracts at fair value. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are primarily classified within Level 1 or Level 2. This is because the cash equivalents and marketable securities are valued primarily using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. The foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within Level 2 as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments in inactive markets.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are summarized below:

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company also adopted SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”, which allows an entity to choose to measure certain financial instruments and liabilities at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis. Subsequent fair value measurement for the financial instruments and liabilities an entity chooses to measure will be recognized in earnings. As of December 31, 2008, the Company did not elect such an option for the financial instruments and liabilities.

In October 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” (“FSP 157-3”). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, in a market that is not active and is intended to address the following application issues

- How the reporting entity’s own assumptions (that is, expected cash flows and appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates) should be considered when measuring fair value when relevant observable inputs do not exist.

- How available observable inputs in a market that is not active should be considered when measuring fair value.

- How the use of market quotes (for example, broker quotes or pricing services for the same or similar financial assets) should be considered when assessing the relevance of observable and unobservable inputs available to measure fair value.

FSP 157-3 is effective on issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. As such, the FSP 157-3 was effective for the Company for the reporting period ended September 30, 2008. Adoption of FSP 157-3 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. The results of management’s assessment were reviewed with the Company’s Audit Committee.

The certification required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are filed as exhibits 31.01 and 31.02, respectively, to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become ineffective because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with established policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria described in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

Based upon this assessment, management has concluded and hereby reports that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young, has issued its report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in iGATE’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008.

Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of iGATE Corporation

We have audited iGATE Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). iGATE Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, iGATE Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the 2008 consolidated financial statements of iGATE Corporation and subsidiaries and our report dated February 23, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
