We are a digitally native technology services company. We leverage the latest technologies in the digital and cognitive fields to empower organizations. We want to help our clients emotionally connect with consumers and employees. We are the place where engineering, design, and innovation meet scale. Our principal operating subsidiary is based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Over the past several years, new technologies have emerged to revolutionize the way end-users interact with technology and reshape businesses and competitive landscapes for organizations.
We believe that we are at the forefront of two disruptive revolutions: the digital and cognitive revolutions. Today’s users move quickly and are keen to interact with their digital ecosystem anywhere and anytime, in a fast, seamless and personalized way that will simplify their lives. In addition, there is abundant demand for more intelligent and human-like behavior and technology. This is the cognitive revolution that artificial intelligence (“AI”) has enabled.
AI and machine learning (“ML”) capabilities have advanced exponentially in recent years, blurring the line between fantasy and reality, and creating a significant market opportunity for whoever can deliver the technology to eager consumers.
Like many radical transformations in the past, AI is poised to be a disruptive force in the near future. Although AI has been available for decades, it has recently matured due to technological advancements that have driven innovation in many industries and accelerated investment in AI. We believe that we have concrete ways to fill that demand.
Our employees (“Globers”) are our most valuable asset. As of March 31, 2018, we had 6,940 Globers and 37 offices in 30 cities in Latin America, Asia, Europe and North America, throughout 12 countries, supported by four client management locations in the United States, and one client management location in each of United Kingdom, Colombia, Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil. Our reputation for cutting-edge work for global blue chip clients and our footprint across the world provide us with the ability to attract and retain well-educated and talented professionals. We are culturally similar to our clients and we function in multiple time zones. We believe that these characteristics have helped us build solid relationships with our clients in the United States and Europe and facilitate a high degree of client collaboration.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, 78.6%, 13.5%, 7.6% and 0.3% of our revenues were generated by clients in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2017, 78.8%, 11.8%, 9.3% and 0.2% of our revenues were generated by clients in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia, respectively. Our clients include companies such as Google, Electronic Arts, Southwest Airlines Co. and Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Online, each of which was among our top ten clients by revenues for at least one Studio in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017. 82.0% and 88.3% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were attributable to repeat clients who had used our services in the prior year. We believe our success in building our attractive client base in the most sophisticated and competitive markets for IT services demonstrates the superior value proposition of our offering and the quality of our execution as well as our culture of innovation and entrepreneurial spirit.
S-2

Our revenues increased from $253.8 million for 2015 to $413.4 million for 2017, representing a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 27.6% over the two-year period. Our revenues for 2017 increased by 28.1% to $413.4 million, from $322.9 million for 2016. Our net income for 2017 was $30.5 million, compared to a net income of  $35.9 million for 2016. The $5.4 million decrease in net income from 2016 to 2017 was primarily driven by lower gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and efficiencies in the effective income tax rate.
Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased by 34.9% to $119.7 million, from $88.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our net income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $10.1 million, compared to net income of  $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The $1.3 million increase in net income from the three months ended March 31, 2017 to the comparable period of 2018 was primarily driven by higher gross margin, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, finance expense net, a decrease in the other income net and an increase in the effective income tax rate.
In 2015, 2016 and 2017, we made several acquisitions to enhance our strategic capabilities, none of which contributed a material amount to our revenues in the year the acquisition was made. See “Information on the Company — History and Development of our Company” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Our Industry
Over the last several years, a number of technologies have emerged to revolutionize the way end users interact with technology, reshape businesses and change the competitive landscapes for organizations. The proliferation and accelerated adoption of technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, virtual reality, cloud computing and related market trends including the focus on omni-relevant experiences, automation of processes and the consumerization of information technology are leading this transformation.
In this new environment, companies’ customers, employees, partners, and stakeholders have become voracious users of technology with high expectations. These users move fast from place to place and are keen to interact with their digital ecosystem anywhere and anytime, in a painless, fast, relevant, and unrestricted way. They demand personalized, seamless and frictionless experiences that will simplify their lives.
We believe that these changes are resulting in a paradigm shift in the technology services industry and are creating a demand for service providers that possess a deep understanding of how to deliver a digital and cognitive transformation, taking into account the following emerging technologies and related market trends:
Tech Trends

Artificial Intelligence:   AI encompasses a set of technologies that blur the line between fantasy and reality and have advanced exponentially in recent years. While AI has been available of decades, it has matured significantly as a result of recent advancements, creating a significant market opportunity for whoever can bring the technology to eager consumers. These technologies include big data and fast data, speech recognition, natural language generation and processing, deep learning, machine learning, robotic process automation and biometrics.

Cybersecurity:   In the last few years, security breaches have become more high profile, pushing all industries to improve their security programs and become more transparent. Healthcare, finance and enterprise-related data are included on all types of devices and, consequently, a concrete cybersecurity framework that protects all the touch points is needed. Enterprises must be ready with a ransomware deflection plan and should be transparent and upfront with any data breach.

Virtual Reality, Augmented and Mixed Reality:   Experiences will be expanded from visual and sound to include more senses, such as touch and smell. These technologies now exist and will continue to be used by more industries, ranging from entertainment to healthcare.
S-3


Blockchain technology:   A blockchain is a distributed database in which information is listed sequentially in “blocks.” This helps prevent the tampering of data and promises increased trust and less business friction by offering transparent access to the chain. Several industries and use cases, including gaming, music distribution, title registry, and identity verification, are already starting to leverage this technology in initiatives that are likely to launch during 2018.

Cloud computing:   Cloud computing is a model for consuming and delivering business and consumer products and services, using Internet-based computing, storage and connectivity technology to house content distributed to an increasing variety of devices. This trend fosters the development of new applications and devices that can access cloud-based software.
Market Trends

Future of Organization:   Companies depend on their ability to recruit the right talent and empower employees, which can be accomplished by offering a work experience that is innovative and fulfilling. Companies are striving to fix poor employee experiences by developing new processes and products from the principles of creating customer experiences.

Omnirelevant experiences:   Focusing on relevance and quality of user interaction over quantity of touch points is at the heart of an effective digital strategy for companies. This requires consumer-centric thinking from the outset. It means being aware of the moments that impact customers and taking action throughout their digital journey while, taking into consideration five key elements: harmony, familiar security, contextual content, sensory and surprise.

Personalization of products, services and content:   Consumers are interested in having trusting relationships with brands, and these relationships require emotional intimacy at every step of the journey. Personalization of products, services and content substantially depends on accurately capturing and reading micro moments of users. User interface and design experimenters are introducing customized interface and persona-mapped user journeys that will shape the user’s experience based on his or her mood and emotions by using brainwave biometrics, and other sensory receptions, such as gaze and hand gestures. These inputs will guide the user’s interaction with dynamic content and navigate the journey of using an application.

Automation:   Automation continues to surge as many industries create technology to handle repetitive tasks. This is affecting traditional production tasks as well as digital ones such as for marketing and analysis purposes. For example, the use of machine learning allows for anomalies to be detected without the need of human intervention. Companies will continue to find ways to improve efficiency by automating their processes.

Consumerization of Information Technology:   This process increases as consumers continue to adopt emerging technologies into their personal lives, and come to expect the same experience, communication and features from business applications. Employees and enterprises are leveraging tools that originated in the consumer world to communicate, collaborate and share knowledge in the workplace, as well as with clients.

Chat and business bots:   These software programs include AI components to interact with people over messaging apps. They have been used for practical purposes such as customer service or information acquisition, but businesses are beginning to see that they can be leveraged to incite conversations that deliver personalized and meaningful content to their customers at scale.
Our Approach
We create software designed to appeal to, and connect emotionally with, consumers. We focus on bringing engineering, innovation and design to scale. We assist our clients in their digital and cognitive transformations.
S-4

We utilize an ecosystem designed to foster creative engineering and successful digital and cognitive transformations, together with a drive to accompany our clients as they Stay Relevant within their industries through research and events.
The four key components of our ecosystem are: our Studios; our Services over Platforms division; our Agile Pods Methodology; and, our Stay Relevant approach.
Studios:
We believe that our Studio model is an effective way of organizing our Company into smaller operating units, fostering creativity and innovation while allowing us to build, enhance and consolidate expertise around a variety of emerging technologies. Each of our Studios has specific domain knowledge and delivers tailored solutions focused on specific technology challenges. This method of delivery is the core of our services offering and our success. We group them in three different categories: Strategic (these studios are key to shaping our clients’ business strategy; they help ensure that organizations are relevant and sustainable); Specialty (studios that power digital transformations and create quality digital products with innovative technologies and emerging trends); Foundation (the engine that allows us to meet scale and provides efficiency and quality to our clients’ digital transformations).
Service Over Platforms:
Our experience building software products allows us to develop a set of platforms designed to help deliver digital and cognitive transformations in an agile and innovative manner. These products have the flexibility to adapt to our clients’ needs as we provide microservices to complement them.
Within our Services over Platforms, we provide specific platforms as a starting point, and then customize them to the specific need of the customers using our services force. We price this service in the same way SaaS companies do: cost per transaction, cost per user or cost per month according to each platform.
Agile Pods Methodology:
We have created a software product design and development model, known as Agile Pods. This model aligns business and technology teams and is driven by a culture of self-regulated teamwork and collaboration across skills, partners and country borders.
Leveraged across divisions, Agile Pods are dedicated to mature emerging technologies and market trends, and provide a constant influx of mature talent and solutions that create intellectual property for our clients. They are self-organized teams that work to meet creative and production goals, make technology decisions and reduce risk. These teams are fully responsible for creating solutions, building and sustaining features, products or platforms.
In addition, savings are delivered to clients due to sustained productivity boosts as the Agile Pods begin to operate at a higher maturity level. We ensure consistency, accountability and replicability by having Agile Pods follow a well-defined set of maturity criteria. Maturity models describe levels of growth and development as follows: Maturity, Quality, Velocity, and Autonomy. Each level acts as a foundation for the next and lays out a path for learning and growth. As Agile Pods evolve from one level to the next, they are equipped with the understanding and tools to accomplish goals more effectively.
Associated metrics guide improvement efforts and generate quantitative and qualitative insights to inform iterative design and planning decisions.
Stay Relevant
We work to provide helpful information and initiatives to understand our customers’ environment, competitors and user behavior. Our thought leaders help our customers stay relevant within their industries by creating and publishing research, organizing SME gatherings, and participating in webinars and conferences, among other initiatives. Our mission is to provide valuable insights to help organizations create their customers’ journeys, experiences, and to foster emotional connections with the audience.

Competitive Strengths
We believe the following strengths differentiate Globant and create the foundation for continued rapid growth in revenues and profitability:
Ability to deliver digital and cognitive transformations
Over the past several years, new technologies have emerged to revolutionize the way end-users interact with technology and reshape businesses and competitive landscapes for organizations.
We create software designed to appeal to, and connect emotionally with, consumers. We focus on bringing engineering, innovation and design to scale. We assist our clients in their digital and cognitive transformations.
We believe that we are at the forefront of two disruptive revolutions: the digital and cognitive revolutions. Today’s users move quickly and are keen to interact with their digital ecosystem anywhere and anytime, in a fast, seamless and personalized way that will simplify their lives. In addition, there is abundant demand for more intelligent and human-like behavior and technology. This is the cognitive revolution that AI has enabled.
AI and ML capabilities have advanced exponentially in recent years, blurring the line between fantasy and reality, and creating a significant market opportunity for whoever can deliver the technology to eager consumers.
Like many radical transformations in the past, AI is poised to be a disruptive force in the near future. Although AI has been available for decades, it has recently matured due to technological advancements that have driven innovation in many industries and accelerated investment in AI. We believe that we have concrete ways to fill that demand.
Deep domain expertise in emerging technologies and related market trends
We have developed strong core competencies in emerging technologies and practices such as artificial intelligence, mobility, big data, wearables, internet of things, cybersecurity, digital content, block chain and cloud computing. We have a deep understanding of market trends, including the focus on omnirelevant experiences, automation of processes, user experience, personalization, Cognitive Computing and open collaboration.

Long-term relationships with blue chip clients
We have built a roster of blue chip clients such as Google, Electronic Arts, Southwest Airlines Co. and Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Online, many of which themselves are at the forefront of emerging technologies. In particular, we have been working with Disney and Electronic Arts for more than eight and ten years, respectively. We believe that our success in developing these client relationships reflects the innovative and high value-added services that we provide along with our ability to positively impact our clients’ business. Our relationships with these enterprises provides us with an opportunity to access large IT, research and development and marketing budgets. These relationships have driven our growth and have enabled us to engage with new clients.
Global delivery with access to deep talent pool
As of March 31, 2018, we provided our services through a network of 37 offices in 30 cities throughout 12 countries. Our delivery locations are in United States (San Francisco, New York, Seattle, Raleigh, Chicago and Dallas), Argentina (Buenos Aires, Tandil, Rosario, Tucumán, Córdoba, Resistencia, Bahía Blanca, Mendoza, Mar del Plata and La Plata), Uruguay (Montevideo), Colombia (Bogotá and Medellín), Brazil (São Paulo), Peru (Lima), Chile (Santiago), México (México City), India (Pune and Bangalore), Spain (Madrid) and United Kingdom (London). We also have client management locations in the United States (San Francisco, New York, Boston and Miami),
S-6

Brazil (São Paulo), Colombia (Bogotá), Uruguay (Montevideo), Argentina (Buenos Aires) and the United Kingdom (London). The main administrative offices of our principal subsidiary (which also include a delivery center) are located in Buenos Aires. Our principal executive office is located in Luxembourg. All of our facilities (with the exceptions of Tucumán and Bahía Blanca) are leased. We also have two offices under construction in Buenos Aires and La Plata.
Latin America has an abundant talent pool of individuals skilled in IT. Over 315,000 engineering and technology students have graduated annually from 2011 – 2015 from universities in Latin America and the Caribbean region according to The Science and Technology Indicator Network (Red de Indicadores de Ciencia y Tecnología), a research organization that tracks science and technology indicators in the region. Latin America’s talent pool (including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Uruguay) is composed of approximately 1,000,000 professionals according to SmartPlanet and NearshoreAmericas. Our highly skilled Globers come from leading universities in the regions where our delivery centers are located. Among our surveyed Globers, approximately 95.0% have obtained a university degree or are enrolled in a university while they are employed by our Company, approximately 3.2% have obtained a graduate level degree, and many have specialized industry credentials or licensing, including in Systems Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems Administration, Business Administration and Graphic and Web Design. Our time zone and cultural similarity have helped us build solid relationships with our clients in the United States and Europe and differentiate us on projects that require a high degree of client collaboration.
A key element of our strategy is to expand our delivery footprint, including increasing the number of employees that are deployed onsite at our clients or near client locations. In particular, we intend to focus our recruitment efforts on the United States. We will continue to focus on expanding our delivery footprint both within and outside Latin America to gain access to additional pools of talent to effectively meet the demands of our clients and to increase the number of Globers that are deployed onsite at our clients or near client locations.
Highly experienced management team
Our management team is comprised of seasoned industry professionals with global experience. Our management sets the vision and strategic direction for Globant and drives our growth and entrepreneurial culture. On average, the members of our senior management team have 19 years of experience in the technology industry giving them a comprehensive understanding of the industry as well as insight into emerging technologies and practices and opportunities for strategic expansion.
Strategy
We seek to be a leading provider of software that appeals and connects emotionally with millions of consumers. The key elements of our strategy for achieving this objective are as follows:
Grow revenue with existing and new clients
We will continue to focus on delivering innovative and high value-added solutions that drive revenues for our clients, thereby deepening our relationships and leading to additional revenue opportunities with them. We will continue to target new clients by leveraging our engineering, design and innovation capabilities and our deep understanding of emerging technologies. We will focus on building our brand in order to further penetrate our existing and target markets where there is a strong demand for our knowledge and services.
Remain at the forefront of innovation and emerging technologies
We believe our Studios have been highly effective in enabling us to deliver innovative software solutions that leverage our deep domain expertise in emerging technologies and related market trends. As new technologies emerge and as market trends change, we will continue to add Studios to remain at the forefront of innovation, to address new competencies that help us stay at the leading-edge of emerging technologies, and to enable us to enter new markets and capture additional business opportunities.
S-7

Attract, train and retain top quality talent
We place a high priority on recruiting, training, and retaining employees, which we believe is integral to our continued ability to meet the challenges of the most complex software development assignments. In doing so, we seek to decentralize our delivery centers by opening centers in locations that may not have developed IT services markets but can provide professionals with the caliber of technical training and experience that we seek. Globant offers highly attractive career opportunities to individuals who might otherwise have had to relocate to larger IT markets. We will continue to develop our scalable human capital platform by implementing resource planning and staffing systems and by attracting, training and developing high-quality professionals, strengthen our relationships with leading universities in different countries, and help universities better prepare graduates for work in our industry. We have agreements to teach, provide internships, and interact on various initiatives with the several universities in Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay, Mexico, Brazil and India.
Selectively pursue strategic acquisitions
Building on our track record of successfully acquiring and integrating complementary companies, we will continue to selectively pursue strategic acquisition opportunities that deepen our relationship with key clients, extend our technology capabilities, broaden our service offerings and expand the geographic footprint of our delivery centers, including beyond Latin America, in order to enhance our ability to serve our clients. Our acquisitions of Ratio and PointSource in the first and second quarter of 2017, respectively, illustrate our commitment to this strategy.

To supplement our gross profit presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted gross profit, which is adjusted from gross profit, the most comparable IFRS measure, to exclude depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues. For a reconciliation of gross profit to adjusted gross profit, see footnote (11). We also present the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted gross profit margin percentage, which reflects adjusted gross profit margin as a percentage of revenues. To supplement our selling, general and administrative expenses presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses, which is adjusted from selling, general and administrative expenses, the most comparable IFRS measure, to exclude acquisition-related charges, depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses. For a reconciliation of selling, general and administrative expenses to adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses, see footnote (11). We believe that excluding such acquisition-related charges, depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expense amounts from gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses and acquisition-related charges, depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues from gross profit margin helps investors compare us and similar companies that exclude acquisition-related charges, depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense from gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses and acquisition-related charges, depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues

We believe these measures help illustrate underlying trends in our business and use such measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing our business and evaluating its performance. These non-IFRS financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but should not be considered as substitutes for or superior to IFRS results. In addition, our calculation of these non-IFRS financial measures may be different from the calculation used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited.

To supplement our profit (loss) from operations presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted profit from operations, which is adjusted from profit (loss) from operations the most comparable IFRS measure, to exclude acquisition-related charges, share-based compensation expense and impairment of tax credits, net of recoveries. For a reconciliation of profit from operations to adjusted profit from operations, see footnote (11). In addition, we present the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted profit from operations margin percentage, which reflects adjusted profit from operations as a percentage of revenues.

To supplement our net income (loss) and adjusted diluted EPS presented in accordance with IFRS, we use the non-IFRS financial measure of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS for the year, which is adjusted from net income (loss) for the year, the most comparable IFRS measure, to exclude acquisition-related charges, share-based compensation expense, impairment of tax credits, net of recoveries, and US settlement agreement, net (See “Financial Information — Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information — Legal Proceedings” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017).

RISK FACTORS
Investment in our common shares involves risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017, or any updates in our reports on Form 6-K that we incorporate by reference herein, together with all of the other information appearing in, or incorporated by reference into, the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement. The risks so described are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our common shares.
Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Shares
The market price of our common shares may fluctuate significantly following the offering, and you may not be able to resell our common shares at or above the price you paid or at all, and you could lose all or part of your investment as a result.
The market price of our common shares may experience volatility following this offering. Market volatility often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. You may not be able to resell your shares at or above the public offering price or at all due to a number of factors, including those listed in “— Risks Related to Our Business and Industry” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017 which is incorporated by reference herein, and the following:

the failure of financial analysts to cover our common shares or changes in financial estimates by analysts;

actual or anticipated variations in our operating results;

changes in financial estimates by financial analysts, or any failure by us to meet or exceed any of these estimates, or changes in the recommendations of any financial analysts that elect to follow our common shares or the shares of our competitors;

announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts or acquisitions;

future sales of our common shares; and

investor perceptions of us and the industries in which we operate.
In addition, the equity markets in general have experienced substantial price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies affected. These broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of certain companies’ securities, securities class action litigation has been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted against us, could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.
S-16

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein may constitute forward-looking statements that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, all statements other than statements of historical facts, including, without limitation, those regarding our future financial position and results of operations, strategy, plans, objectives, goals and targets, future developments in the markets in which we operate or are seeking to operate or anticipated regulatory changes in the markets in which we operate or intend to operate. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “projected,” “should” or “will” or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology.
The forward-looking statements contained in the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our management’s experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors that we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements. These factors include but are not limited to:

If we are unable to maintain current resource utilization rates and productivity levels, our revenues, profit margins and results of operations may be adversely affected;

If we are unable to manage attrition and attract and retain highly-skilled IT professionals, we may not have the necessary resources to maintain client relationships, and competition for such IT professionals could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations

If the pricing structures we use for our client contracts are based on inaccurate expectations and assumptions regarding the cost and complexity of performing our work, our contracts could be unprofitable;

We may not be able to achieve our anticipated growth, which could materially adversely affect our revenues, results of operations, business and prospects;

We may be unable to effectively manage our rapid growth, which could place significant strain on our management personnel, systems and resources;

If we were to lose the services of our senior management team or other key employees, our business operations, competitive position, client relationships, revenues and results of operation may be adversely affected;

If we do not continue to innovate and remain at the forefront of emerging technologies and related market trends, we may lose clients and not remain competitive, which could cause our results of operations to suffer;

If any of our largest clients terminates, decreases the scope of, or fails to renew its business relationship or short-term contract with us, our revenues, business and results of operations may be adversely affected;

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from clients located in the United States and, to a lesser extent, Europe. Worsening general economic conditions in the United States, Europe or globally could materially adversely affect our revenues, margins, results of operations and financial condition;
S-17


Uncertainty concerning the instability in the current economic, political and social environment in Argentina may have an adverse impact on capital flows or other relevant variables and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations; and

As of June 12, 2018, our greater than 5% shareholders, directors and executive officers and entities affiliated with them beneficially own approximately 45.09% of our outstanding common shares (this calculation includes common shares subject to options that are currently exercisable or will be exercisable within 60 days of June 12, 2018 as well as common shares issuable upon settlement of restricted stock units that have vested or will vest within 60 days of June 12, 2018), of which approximately 18.63% of our outstanding common shares are owned by the selling shareholder. These shareholders therefore continue to have substantial control over us at the date of this prospectus supplement and could prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions, such as approval of key transactions, including a change of control.
You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on the cover of this prospectus supplement, or, in the case of forward-looking statements incorporated by reference, the date of the filing that includes the statement. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements may differ from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse to our security holders. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
We have identified some of the important factors that could cause future events to differ from our current expectations and they are described in the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement under the caption “Risk Factors,” as well as in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017, and in other documents that we may file with the SEC, all of which you should review carefully. Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of those risks as you read the accompanying prospectus and this prospectus supplement.

SELLING SHAREHOLDER
This prospectus supplement relates to the resale of up to a total of 6,687,548 common shares by the selling shareholder. On July 23, 2014, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the selling shareholder pursuant to which we agreed to prepare and file a registration statement to permit the resale of the shares covered by this prospectus supplement. The selling shareholder identified below may currently hold or acquire at any time common shares in addition to those registered hereby.
Beneficial ownership for the purposes of the following table is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting thereof, or to dispose or direct the disposition thereof or has the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to the table below and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each shareholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power over all common shares shown as beneficially owned by the shareholder.
Our calculation of the beneficial ownership in the following table is based on 35,892,809 of our common shares outstanding as of June 12, 2018.

TAXATION
The following is a summary of the material Luxembourg and U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the ownership and disposition of our common shares. This summary is based upon Luxembourg tax laws and U.S. federal income tax laws (including the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, rulings, judicial decisions and administrative pronouncements), all currently in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change or changes in wording or administrative or judicial interpretation occurring after the date hereof, possibly with retroactive effect. To the extent that the following discussion relates to matters of Luxembourg tax law, it represents the opinion of Arendt & Medernach, Luxembourg, our Luxembourg counsel, and to the extent that the discussion relates to matters of U.S. federal income tax law, it represents the opinion of DLA Piper LLP (US), our U.S. counsel.
As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of one or more of our common shares:
a)
that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes one of the following:
i)
an individual citizen or resident of the United States,
ii)
a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or
ii)
an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source;
b)
who holds the common shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and
c)
who owns, directly, indirectly or by attribution, less than 10% of the voting power and value of the share capital of Globant.
This summary does not address all of the tax considerations that may apply to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as U.S. expatriates, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, certain financial institutions, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, dealers and certain traders in securities, persons holding common shares as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion or other integrated transaction, accrual basis taxpayers subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code, persons who acquired their common shares pursuant to the exercise of employee shares options or otherwise as compensation, partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Such holders may be subject to U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below. This summary does not address the U.S. Medicare tax on net investment income. In addition, this summary does not address all of the Luxembourg tax considerations that may apply to holders that are subject to special tax rules.
If a partnership holds common shares, the tax treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A partnership, or partner in a partnership, that holds common shares is urged to consult its own tax advisor regarding the specific tax consequences of owning and disposing of the common shares.
Potential investors in our common shares should consult their own tax advisors concerning the specific Luxembourg and U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common shares in light of their particular situations as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
Luxembourg Tax Considerations
Introduction
The following is an overview of certain material Luxembourg tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of the common shares issued by us. It does not purport to be a complete
S-21

analysis of all possible tax situations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase, own or deposit our common shares. It is included herein solely for preliminary information purposes and is not intended to be, nor should it construed to be, legal or tax advice. Prospective purchasers of our common shares should consult their own tax advisers as to the applicable tax consequences of the ownership of our common shares, based on their particular circumstances. The following description of Luxembourg tax law is based upon the Luxembourg law and regulations as in effect and as interpreted by the Luxembourg tax authorities as of the date of this prospectus supplement and is subject to any amendments in law (or in interpretation) later introduced, whether or not on a retroactive basis. Please be aware that the residence concept used under the respective headings below applies for Luxembourg income tax assessment purposes only. Any reference in this section to a tax, duty, levy impost or other charge or withholding of a similar nature refers to Luxembourg tax laws and/or concepts only. Also, please note that a reference to Luxembourg income tax encompasses corporate income tax (impôt sur le revenu des collectivités), municipal business tax (impôt commercial communal), a solidarity surcharge (contribution au fonds pour l’emploi), as well as personal income tax (impôt sur le revenu). Corporate taxpayers may further be subject to net worth tax (impôt sur la fortune), as well as other duties, levies or taxes. Corporate income tax, municipal business tax, as well as the solidarity surcharge invariably applies to most corporate taxpayers resident of Luxembourg for tax purposes. Individual taxpayers are generally subject to personal income tax and the solidarity surcharge. Under certain circumstances, where an individual taxpayer acts in the course of the management of a professional or business undertaking, municipal business tax may apply as well.
Taxation of our Company
Income tax
As we are a fully-taxable Luxembourg company, our net taxable profit is as a rule subject to corporate income tax (“CIT”) and municipal business tax (“MBT”) at ordinary rates in Luxembourg.
The taxable profit as determined for CIT purposes is applicable, with minor adjustments, for MBT purposes. CIT is levied at an effective maximum rate of 19.26% as from 2018 (inclusive of the 7% surcharge for the employment fund). MBT is levied at a variable rate according to the municipality in which we are located (6.75% in the City of Luxembourg). The maximum aggregate CIT and MBT rate consequently amounts to 26.01% as from 2018 for companies located in the City of Luxembourg.
Dividends and other payments derived from the participations we hold in our subsidiaries are subject to income taxes, unless the conditions of the participation exemption regime, as described below, are satisfied. A tax credit is generally granted for withholding taxes levied at source within the limit of the tax payable in Luxembourg on such income, whereby any excess withholding tax is not refundable.
Under the participation exemption regime (subject to the relevant anti-abuse rules), dividends derived from shares may be exempt from income tax if  (i) the distributing company is a qualified subsidiary (“Qualified Subsidiary”) and (ii) at the time the dividend is put at the company’s disposal, the company has held or commits itself to hold for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months shares representing a direct participation in the share capital of the Qualified Subsidiary (i) of at least 10% or of  (ii) an acquisition price of at least €1.2 million. A Qualified Subsidiary means (a) a Luxembourg resident fully-taxable company limited by share capital (société de capitaux), (b) a company covered by Article 2 of the Council Directive 2011/96/EU of November 30, 2011 as amended (the “EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive”) or (c) a non-resident company limited by share capital (société de capitaux) liable to a tax corresponding to Luxembourg CIT.
Liquidation proceeds are assimilated to a received dividend and may be exempt under the same conditions. If the conditions of the participation exemption regime are not met, dividends derived by our Company from Qualified Subsidiaries may be exempt for 50% of their gross amount if they are received from (i) a Luxembourg resident fully-taxable company limited by share capital, or (ii) a company limited by share capital resident in a State with which the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has concluded a double tax treaty and liable to a tax corresponding to Luxembourg CIT, or (iii) a company resident in a EU Member State and covered by Article 2 of the EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive.
S-22

Capital gains realized by us on shares are subject to CIT and MBT at ordinary rates, unless the conditions of the participation exemption regime, as described below, are satisfied. Under the participation exemption regime, capital gains realized on shares of a Qualified Subsidiary may be exempt from CIT and MBT at the level of our Company if at the time the capital gain is realized, we have held or commit ourselves to hold for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months shares representing a direct participation in the share capital of the Qualified Subsidiary (i) of at least 10% or of  (ii) an acquisition price of at least €6 million. Taxable gains are defined as being the difference between the price for which shares have been disposed of and the lower of their cost or book value.
Withholding tax
Dividends paid by us to the holders of our common shares are as a rule subject to a 15% withholding tax in Luxembourg, unless a reduced withholding tax rate applies pursuant to an applicable double tax treaty or an exemption pursuant to the application of the participation exemption, and, to the extent withholding tax applies, we are responsible for withholding amounts corresponding to such taxation at its source.
A withholding tax exemption may apply under the participation exemption if cumulatively (i) the holder of our shares is an eligible parent (an “Eligible Parent”) and (ii) at the time the income is made available, the holder of our shares has held or commits itself to hold for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months a direct participation of at least 10% of our share capital or a direct participation of an acquisition price of at least €1.2 million (or an equivalent amount in another currency). Holding a participation through an entity treated as tax transparent from a Luxembourg income tax perspective is deemed to be a direct participation in proportion to the net assets held in this entity. An Eligible Parent includes (a) a company covered by Article 2 of the EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive or a Luxembourg permanent establishment thereof, (b) a company resident in a State having a double tax treaty with Luxembourg and subject to a tax corresponding to Luxembourg CIT or a Luxembourg permanent establishment thereof, (c) a company limited by share capital (société de capitaux) or a cooperative society (société coopérative) resident in the European Economic Area other than an EU Member State and liable to a tax corresponding to Luxembourg CIT or a Luxembourg permanent establishment thereof or (d) a Swiss company limited by share capital (société de capitaux) which is effectively subject to corporate income tax in Switzerland without benefiting from an exemption.
No withholding tax is levied on capital gains and liquidation proceeds.
Net wealth tax
We are as a rule subject to Luxembourg net wealth tax (“NWT”) on our net assets as determined for net wealth tax purposes. NWT is levied at the rate of 0.5% on net assets not exceeding EUR 500 million and at the rate of 0.05% on the portion of the net assets exceeding EUR 500 million. Net worth is referred to as the unitary value (valeur unitaire), as determined at 1 January of each year. The unitary value is in principle calculated as the difference between (i) assets estimated at their fair market value (valeur estimée de réalisation), and (ii) liabilities vis-à-vis third parties.
Under the participation exemption regime, a qualified shareholding held by us in a Qualified Subsidiary is exempt for net wealth tax purposes.
A minimum net wealth tax (“MNWT”) is levied on companies having their statutory seat or central administration in Luxembourg. For entities for which the sum of fixed financial assets, receivables against related companies, transferable securities and cash at bank exceeds 90% of their total balance sheet and EUR 350,000, the MNWT is set at EUR 4,815. For all other companies having their statutory seat or central administration in Luxembourg which do not fall within the scope of the EUR 4,815 MNWT, the MNWT ranges from EUR 535 to EUR 32,100, depending on the total balance sheet.
Other taxes
The issuance of our common shares and any other amendment of our articles of association are currently subject to a €75 fixed registration duty. The disposal of our common shares is not subject to a Luxembourg registration tax or stamp duty, unless recorded in a Luxembourg notarial deed or otherwise registered in Luxembourg.
S-23

Taxation of the holders of common shares
A holder of our common shares will not become resident, nor be deemed to be resident, in Luxembourg by reason only of the holding and/or disposing of our common shares or the execution, performance or enforcement of his/her rights thereunder.
Income tax
Luxembourg resident holders
Luxembourg individual residents
Dividends and other payments derived from our common shares by resident individual holders of our common shares, who act in the course of the management of either their private wealth or their professional or business activity, are subject to income tax at the ordinary progressive rates. A tax credit may be granted, under certain circumstances, for Luxembourg withholding tax levied. 50% of the gross amount of dividends received from our Company by resident individual holders of our common shares are exempt from income tax.
Capital gains realized on the disposal of our common shares by resident individual holders of our common shares, who act in the course of the management of their private wealth, are not subject to income tax, unless said capital gains qualify either as speculative gains or as gains on a substantial participation. Capital gains are deemed to be speculative and are subject to income tax at ordinary rates if our common shares are disposed of within six months after their acquisition or if their disposal precedes their acquisition. Speculative gains are subject to income tax as miscellaneous income at ordinary rates. A participation is deemed to be substantial where a resident individual holder of our common shares holds or has held, either alone or together with his spouse or partner and/or minor children, directly or indirectly at any time within the five years preceding the disposal, more than 10% of the share capital of the company whose common shares are being disposed of. A holder of our common shares is also deemed to alienate a substantial participation if he acquired free of charge, within the five years preceding the transfer, a participation that was constituting a substantial participation in the hands of the alienator (or the alienators in case of successive transfers free of charge within the same five-year period). Capital gains realized on a substantial participation more than six months after the acquisition thereof are taxed according to the half-global rate method, (i.e. the average rate applicable to the total income is calculated according to progressive income tax rates and half of the average rate is applied to the capital gains realized on the substantial participation). A disposal may include a sale, an exchange, a contribution or any other kind of alienation of the participation.
Capital gains realized on the disposal of our common shares by resident individual holders of our common shares, who act in the course of their professional or business activity, are subject to income tax at ordinary rates. Taxable gains are determined as being the difference between the price for which our common shares have been disposed of and the lower of their cost or book value.
Luxembourg fully-taxable corporate residents
Dividends and other payments derived from our common shares by Luxembourg-resident, fully-taxable companies are subject to income taxes, unless the conditions of the participation exemption regime, as described below, are satisfied. A tax credit may, under certain circumstances, be granted for any Luxembourg withholding tax levied. If the conditions of the participation exemption regime are not met, 50% of the gross amount of dividends received by Luxembourg-resident, fully-taxable companies from our common shares are exempt from income tax.
Under the participation exemption regime, dividends derived from our common shares may be exempt from income tax at the level of the holder of our common shares if cumulatively (i) the holder of our common shares is a Luxembourg-resident, fully-taxable company and (ii) at the time the dividend is put at the holder of our common shares’ disposal, the holder of our common shares has held or commits itself to hold for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months a qualified shareholding
S-24

(“Qualified Shareholding”). A Qualified Shareholding means common shares representing a direct participation of at least 10% of our share capital or a direct participation in our Company of an acquisition price of at least €1.2 million (or an equivalent amount in another currency). Liquidation proceeds are assimilated to a received dividend and may be exempt under the same conditions. Common shares held through a tax-transparent entity are considered as being a direct participation proportionally to the percentage held in the net assets of the transparent entity.
Capital gains realized by a Luxembourg-resident, fully-taxable company on our common shares are subject to income tax at ordinary rates, unless the conditions of the participation exemption regime, as described below, are satisfied. Under the participation exemption regime, capital gains realized on our common shares may be exempt from income tax at the level of the holder of our common shares if cumulatively (i) the holder of our common shares is a Luxembourg fully-taxable corporate resident and (ii) at the time the capital gain is realized, the holder of our common shares has held or commits itself to hold for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months our common shares representing a direct participation in the share capital of our Company of at least 10% or a direct participation in our Company of an acquisition price of at least €6 million (or an equivalent amount in another currency). Taxable gains are determined as being the difference between the price for which our common shares have been disposed of and the lower of their cost or book value.
Luxembourg residents benefiting from a special tax regime
Holders of our common shares who are either (i) an undertaking for collective investment governed by the amended law of December 17, 2010, (ii) a specialized investment fund governed by the amended law of February 13, 2007, (iii) a family wealth management company governed by the amended law of May 11, 2007, or (iv) a reserved alternative investment fund treated as a specialized investment fund for Luxembourg tax purposes governed by the law of July 23, 2016, are exempt from income tax in Luxembourg. Dividends derived from and capital gains realized on our common shares are thus not subject to income tax in their hands.
Luxembourg non-resident holders
Non-resident holders of our common shares who have neither a permanent establishment nor a permanent representative in Luxembourg to which or whom our common shares are attributable, are not liable to any Luxembourg income tax on income and gains derived from our common shares except capital gains realized on (i) a substantial participation before the acquisition thereof or within the first six months of the acquisition thereof, or (ii) a substantial participation more than six months after the acquisition thereof by a holder of our common shares who has been a former Luxembourg resident for more than fifteen years and has become a non-resident, at the time of transfer, less than five years ago. A participation is deemed to be substantial where a shareholder holds or has held, either alone or, in case of an individual shareholder, together with his/her spouse or partner and/or minor children, directly or indirectly at any time within the five years preceding the disposal, more than 10% of the share capital of the company whose common shares are being disposed of. A shareholder is also deemed to alienate a substantial participation if he acquired free of charge, within the five years preceding the transfer, a participation that was constituting a substantial participation in the hands of the alienator (or the alienators in case of successive transfers free of charge within the same five-year period).
Non-resident holders of our common shares which have a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in Luxembourg to which or whom our common shares are attributable, must include any income received, as well as any gain realized, on the sale, disposal or redemption of our common shares, in their taxable income for Luxembourg tax assessment purposes, unless the conditions of the participation exemption regime, as described below, are satisfied. If the conditions of the participation exemption regime are not fulfilled, 50% of the gross amount of dividends received by a Luxembourg permanent establishment or permanent representative may be, however, exempt from income tax. Taxable gains are determined as being the difference between the price for which the common shares have been disposed of and the lower of their cost or book value.
S-25

Under the participation exemption regime, dividends derived from our common shares may be exempt from income tax if cumulatively (i) our common shares are attributable to a qualified permanent establishment (“Qualified Permanent Establishment”) and (ii) at the time the dividend is put at the disposal of the Qualified Permanent Establishment, it has held or commits itself to hold a Qualified Shareholding for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months. A Qualified Permanent Establishment means (a) a Luxembourg permanent establishment of a company covered by Article 2 of the EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive, (b) a Luxembourg permanent establishment of a company limited by share capital (société de capitaux) resident in a State having a tax treaty with Luxembourg, and (c) a Luxembourg permanent establishment of a company limited by share capital (société de capitaux) or a cooperative society (société coopérative) resident in the European Economic Area other than a EU Member State. Liquidation proceeds are assimilated to a received dividend and may be exempt under the same conditions. Common shares held through a tax transparent entity are considered as being a direct participation proportionally to the percentage held in the net assets of the transparent entity.
Under the participation exemption regime, capital gains realized on our common shares may be exempt from income tax if  (i) our common shares are attributable to a Qualified Permanent Establishment and (ii) at the time the capital gain is realized, the Qualified Permanent Establishment has held or commits itself to hold, for an uninterrupted period of at least 12 months, our common shares representing a direct participation in our share capital of at least 10% or a direct participation in our Company of an acquisition price of at least €6 million (or an equivalent amount in another currency). Taxable gains are determined as being the difference between the price for which our common shares have been disposed of and the lower of their cost or book value.
Net wealth tax
Luxembourg resident holders of our common shares, as well as non-resident holders of our common shares who have a permanent establishment or a permanent representative in Luxembourg to which or whom our common shares are attributable, are subject to Luxembourg net wealth tax on our common shares, except if the holder is (i) a resident or non-resident individual taxpayer, (ii) a securitization company governed by the amended law of March 22, 2004 on securitization, (iii) a company governed by the amended law of June 15, 2004 on venture capital vehicles, (iv) a professional pension institution governed by the amended law of July 13, 2005, (v) a specialized investment fund governed by the amended law of February 13, 2007, (vi) a family wealth management company governed by the amended law of May 11, 2007, (vii) an undertaking for collective investment governed by the amended law of December 17, 2010 or (viii) a reserved alternative investment fund governed by the law of July 23, 2016. However, (i) a securitization company governed by the amended law of March 22, 2004 on securitization, (ii) a company governed by the amended law of June 15, 2004 on venture capital vehicles, (iii) a professional pension institution governed by the amended law of July 13, 2005 and (iv) a reserved alternative investment fund treated as a venture capital vehicle for Luxembourg tax purposes and governed by the law of July 23, 2016, remain subject to minimum net wealth tax.
Under the participation exemption, a Qualified Shareholding held in our Company by an Eligible Parent or attributable to a Qualified Permanent Establishment may be exempt. The net wealth tax exemption for a Qualified Shareholding does not require the completion of the 12-month holding period.
Other taxes
Under Luxembourg tax law, where an individual holder of our common shares is a resident of Luxembourg for inheritance tax purposes at the time of his or her death, our common shares are included in his or her taxable basis for inheritance tax purposes. On the contrary, no inheritance tax is levied on the transfer of our common shares upon the death of an individual holder in cases where the deceased was not a resident of Luxembourg for inheritance purposes.
Gift tax may be due on a gift or donation of our common shares, if the gift is recorded in a Luxembourg notarial deed or otherwise registered in Luxembourg.
S-26

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
Taxation of dividends
Distributions received by a U.S. Holder on common shares, including the amount of any Luxembourg taxes withheld, other than certain pro rata distributions of common shares to all shareholders, will constitute foreign source dividend income to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Because we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is expected that such distributions (including any Luxembourg taxes withheld) will be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends. Although it is our intention, if we pay any dividends, to pay such dividends in U.S. dollars, if dividends are paid in euros, the amount of the dividend a U.S. Holder will be required to include in income will equal the U.S. dollar value of the euro, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the payment is received by the U.S. Holder, regardless of whether the payment is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt. If the dividend is converted to U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. holder should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. A U.S. Holder may have foreign currency gain or loss if the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars after the date of its receipt. If a U.S. Holder realizes gain or loss on a sale or other disposition of euro, it will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss. U.S. Holders that are corporations generally will not be entitled to claim a dividends received deduction with respect to any distributions they receive from us. Subject to applicable limitations, dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders of common shares generally will be taxable at the reduced rate that otherwise applies to long-term capital gains. Non-corporate U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are subject to any special rules that limit their ability to be taxed at this favorable rate. Certain pro rata distributions of ordinary shares to all shareholders are not generally subject to U.S. federal income tax.
Luxembourg income taxes withheld from dividends on common shares (at a rate not exceeding the applicable rate under the U.S.-Luxembourg income tax treaty (the “Treaty”), assuming the U.S. Holder is eligible for the benefits of the Treaty) will be creditable against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, subject to applicable restrictions and limitations that may vary depending upon the U.S. Holder’s circumstances. Instead of claiming a credit, a U.S. Holder may elect to deduct foreign taxes (including any Luxembourg withholding taxes) in computing its taxable income, subject to generally applicable limitations. An election to deduct foreign taxes (instead of claiming foreign tax credits) applies to all taxes paid or accrued in the taxable year to foreign countries and possessions of the United States. The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex. Therefore, U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits in their particular circumstances.
Taxation upon sale or other disposition of common shares
A U.S. Holder will recognize U.S. source capital gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of common shares, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held such common shares for more than one year. The amount of the U.S. Holder’s gain or loss will be equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the common shares sold or otherwise disposed of and the amount realized on the sale or other disposition. Net long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders will be taxed at the reduced rate applicable to long-term capital gains.
Passive foreign investment company rules
We believe that we will not be a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes for this current taxable year and do not expect to become one in the foreseeable future. However, because PFIC status depends upon the composition of our income and assets and the market value of our assets (including, among others, less than 25% owned equity investments) from time to time, there can be no assurance that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. Because, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have valued our goodwill based on the market
S-27

value of our equity, a decrease in the price of our common shares may also result in us becoming a PFIC. If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held common shares, certain adverse tax consequences could apply to the U.S. Holder.
If we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held common shares, gain recognized by a U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition of common shares would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the common shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before we became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the resulting tax liability. The same treatment would apply to any distribution in respect of common shares to the extent it exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions on common shares received by the U.S. Holder during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter. Certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment) of the common shares.
In addition, if we were treated as a PFIC in a taxable year in which we pay a dividend or in the prior taxable year, the reduced rate discussed above with respect to dividends paid to certain non-corporate U.S. Holders would not apply.
Information reporting and backup withholding
Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to information reporting and to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder is a corporation or other exempt recipient or, in the case of backup withholding, the U.S. Holder provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
The foregoing is a summary of some of the important tax rules and considerations affecting U.S. Holders and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all relevant tax rules and considerations, nor does it purport to be a complete listing of all potential tax risks inherent in purchasing or holding common shares of our Company. Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisers to fully understand the federal, state and local, and foreign income tax consequences of an investment in the common shares of our Company.

UNDERWRITING
We, the selling shareholder and the underwriters named below have entered into an underwriting agreement with respect to the common shares being offered. Subject to certain conditions, each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase the number of common shares indicated in the following table. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the representatives of the underwriters.

The underwriters are committed to take and pay for all of the common shares being offered, if any are taken, other than the common shares covered by the option described below unless and until this option is exercised.
The underwriters have an option to buy up to an additional 872,289 common shares from the selling shareholder. They may exercise that option for 30 days. If any common shares are purchased pursuant to this option, the underwriters will severally purchase common shares in approximately the same proportion as set forth in the table above.
The following table shows the per share and total underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid to the underwriters by the selling shareholder. Such amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase 872,289 additional common shares.

Common shares sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement. Any common shares sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at a discount of up to $          per share from the initial public offering price. After the initial offering of the common shares, the representatives may change the offering price and the other selling terms. The offering of the common shares by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.
We, the selling shareholder and the directors and members of senior management of our Company have agreed with the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any of our common shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common shares during the period from the date of this prospectus supplement continuing through the date that is 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, except with the prior written consent of the representatives. This agreement does not apply to any existing employee benefit plans or to the common shares to be sold hereunder.
In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell common shares in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of common shares than they are required to purchase in the offering, and a short position represents the amount of such sales that have not been covered by subsequent purchases. A “covered short position” is a short position that is not greater than the amount of additional common shares for which the underwriters’ option described above may be exercised. The underwriters may cover any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional common shares or purchasing common shares in the open market. In determining the source of common shares to cover the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of common shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase

additional common shares pursuant to the option described above. “Naked” short sales are any short sales that create a short position greater than the amount of additional common shares for which the option described above may be exercised. The underwriters must cover any such naked short position by purchasing common shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of common shares made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.
The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased common shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions, as well as other purchases by the underwriters for their own accounts, may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of or common shares, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of our common shares. As a result, the price of the common shares may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. These transactions may be effected on NYSE, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relative Member State”) an offer to the public of our common shares may not be made in that Relevant Member State, except that an offer to the public in that Relevant Member State of our common shares may be made at any time under the following exemptions under the Prospectus Directive:

In any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive;
provided that no such offer of our common shares shall result in a requirement for the publication by us of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.
For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer to public” in relation to our common shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and our common shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase our common shares, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended), including by Directive 2010/73/EU and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form F-3 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we or any selling shareholders may, from time to time, sell our common shares in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of our common shares that we or any selling shareholders may offer. This prospectus may be supplemented from time to time by one or more prospectus supplements. The prospectus supplement may add, update or change information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus.
We are responsible for the information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of us. Neither we nor the selling shareholders have authorized anyone to provide you with additional or different information. We and the selling shareholders take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurances as to the reliability of, additional, different or inconsistent information that others may give you. If you are in a jurisdiction where offers to sell, or solicitations of offers to purchase, our common shares are unlawful, or if you are a person to whom it is unlawful to direct these types of activities, then the offer presented in this document does not extend to you. You should assume the information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as of the respective dates of such information. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.
The registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, contains more information than this prospectus regarding us and the matters discussed in this prospectus, including exhibits and schedules. You can obtain a copy of the registration statement from the SEC at the SEC’s website or at the SEC’s offices as described below under the heading “Where You Can Find Additional Information.” Statements in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement concerning any document we filed as an exhibit to the registration statement or that we otherwise filed with the SEC are not intended to be comprehensive and are qualified by reference to these filings. You should review the complete document to evaluate these statements. You should read this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information,” before making your investment decision.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The following is a summary of some of the terms of our common shares, based on our articles of association.
The following summary is not complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of our articles of association, the form of which has been filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is incorporated herein by reference, and applicable Luxembourg law, including the Luxembourg law of August 10, 1915 on commercial companies as amended from time to time (loi du 10 août 1915 sur les sociétés commerciales telle que modifiée, the “Luxembourg Corporate Law”). You may obtain copies of our articles of association as described under “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus.
General
We are a Luxembourg joint stock company (société anonyme) and our legal name is “Globant S.A.” We were incorporated on December 10, 2012.
We are registered with the Luxembourg Trade and Companies Register (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés de Luxembourg) under number B 173 727 and have our registered office at 37A Avenue J. F. Kennedy, L-1855, Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
Share Capital
As of June 12, 2018, our issued share capital was $43,071,370.80, represented by 35,892,809 common shares with a nominal value of  $1.20 each, of which 138,152 are treasury shares held by us.
As of June 12, 2018, we had an authorized share capital, excluding the issued share capital, of $7,808,433.60 consisting of 6,507,028 common shares with a nominal value of  $1.20 each.
Our shareholders’ meeting has authorized our board of directors to issue common shares within the limits of the authorized share capital at such time and such terms as our board of directors may decide during a period ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of publication in the Recueil Electronique des Sociétés et Associations (“RESA”) of the minutes of the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on May 8, 2017, which publication occurred on May 19, 2017 and which period ends on May 19, 2022, and may be renewed. Accordingly, our board of directors may issue up to 6,507,028 common shares until such date. We currently intend to seek renewals and/or extensions as required from time to time.
Our authorized share capital is determined by our articles of association, as amended from time to time, and may be increased or reduced by amending the articles of association by approval of the requisite two-thirds majority of the votes at a quorate extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting. Under Luxembourg law, our shareholders have no obligation to provide further capital to us.
Under Luxembourg law, our shareholders benefit from a pre-emptive subscription right on the issuance of common shares for cash consideration. However, our shareholders have, in accordance with Luxembourg law, authorized our board of directors to waive, suppress or limit, any pre-emptive subscription rights of shareholders provided by law to the extent our board of directors deems such waiver, suppression or limitation advisable for any issue or issues of common shares within the scope of our authorized share capital. Such common shares may be issued above, at or below market value as well as above, at or below nominal value by way of incorporation of available reserves (including premium).
Form and Transfer of Common Shares
Our common shares are issued in registered form only and are freely transferable under Luxembourg law and our articles of association. Luxembourg law does not impose any limitations on the rights of Luxembourg or non-Luxembourg residents to hold or vote our common shares.
Under Luxembourg law, the ownership of registered shares is established by the inscription of the name of the shareholder and the number of shares held by him or her in the shareholder register. Transfers of common shares not deposited into securities accounts are effective towards us and third parties either through the recording of a declaration of transfer into the shareholders’ register, signed and dated by the
8

transferor and the transferee or their representatives or by us, upon notification of the transfer to, or upon the acceptance of the transfer by, us. Should the transfer of common shares not be recorded accordingly, the shareholder is entitled to enforce his or her rights by initiating the relevant proceedings before the competent courts of Luxembourg.
In addition, our articles of association provide that our common shares may be held through a securities settlement system or a professional depositary of securities. The depositor of common shares held in such manner has the same rights and obligations as if such depositor held the common shares directly. Common shares held through a securities settlement system or a professional depositary of securities may be transferred from one account to another in accordance with customary procedures for the transfer of securities in book-entry form. However, we will make dividend payments (if any) and any other payments in cash, common shares or other securities (if any) only to the securities settlement system or the depositary recorded in the shareholders’ register or in accordance with its instructions.
Issuance of Common Shares
Pursuant to Luxembourg Corporate Law, the issuance of common shares requires the amendment of our articles of association by the approval of two-thirds of the votes at a quorate extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting; provided, however, that the general meeting may approve an authorized share capital and authorize our board of directors to issue common shares up to the maximum amount of such authorized unissued share capital for a five year period beginning either on the date of the relevant general meeting or the date of publication in the RESA of the minutes of the relevant general meeting approving such authorization. The general meeting may amend or renew such authorized share capital and such authorization of our board of directors to issue common shares.
As of June 12, 2018, we had an authorized share capital, excluding the issued share capital, of $7,808,433.60 and our board of directors was authorized to issue up to 6,507,028 common shares (subject to stock splits, consolidation of common shares or like transactions) with a nominal value of  $1.20 per common share.
Our articles of association provide that no fractional shares shall be issued or exist.
Pre-emptive Rights
Unless limited, waived or cancelled by our board of directors in the context of the authorized share capital or pursuant to a decision of an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders pursuant to the provisions of the articles of association relating to amendments thereof, holders of our common shares have a pro rata pre-emptive right to subscribe for any new common shares issued for cash consideration. Our articles of association provide that pre-emptive rights can be waived, suppressed or limited by our board of directors for a period ending on the fifth anniversary of the date of publication in the RESA of the minutes of the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on May 8, 2017, which publication occurred on May 19, 2017 and which period ends on May 19, 2022, in the event of an increase of the issued share capital by our board of directors within the limits of the authorized share capital.
Repurchase of Common Shares
We cannot subscribe for our own common shares. We may, however, repurchase issued common shares or have another person repurchase issued common shares for our account, subject to the following conditions:

the repurchase complies with the principle of equal treatment of all shareholders, except in the event such repurchase was the result of the unanimous decision of a general meeting at which all shareholders were present or represented (in addition, listed companies may repurchase their own shares on the stock exchange without an offer to repurchase having to be made to the shareholders);

prior authorization by a simple majority vote at an ordinary general meeting of shareholders is granted, which authorization sets forth the terms and conditions of the proposed repurchase,

including the maximum number of common shares to be repurchased, the duration of the period for which the authorization is given (which may not exceed five years) and, in the case of a repurchase for consideration, the minimum and maximum consideration per common share;

the repurchase does not reduce our net assets (on a non-consolidated basis) to a level below the aggregate of the issued share capital and the reserves that we must maintain pursuant to Luxembourg law or our articles of association; and

only fully paid-up common shares are repurchased.
No prior authorization by our shareholders is required for us to repurchase our own common shares if:

we are in imminent and severe danger, in which case our board of directors must inform the general meeting of shareholders held subsequent to the repurchase of common shares of the reasons for, and aim of such repurchase, the number and nominal value of the common shares repurchased, the fraction of the share capital such repurchased common shares represented and the consideration paid for such shares; or

the common shares are repurchased by us or by a person acting for our account in view of a distribution of the common shares to our employees.
On June 18, 2014, the general meeting of shareholders according to the conditions set forth in article 49-2 of Luxembourg Corporate Law granted our board of directors the authorization to repurchase up to a maximum number of shares representing 20% of the issued share capital immediately after the closing of our initial public offering for a net purchase price being (i) no less than 50% of the lowest stock price and (ii) no more than 50% above the highest stock price, in each case being the closing price, as reported by the New York City edition of the Wall Street Journal, or, if not reported therein, any other authoritative sources to be selected by our board of directors, over the ten trading days preceding the date of the purchase (or the date of the commitment to the transaction). The authorization is valid for a period ending five years from the date of the general meeting or the date of its renewal by a subsequent general meeting of shareholders. Pursuant to such authorization, our board of directors is authorized to acquire and sell our common shares under the conditions set forth in the minutes of such general meeting of shareholders. Such purchases and sales may be carried out for any purpose authorized by the general meeting of Globant S.A.
Capital Reduction
Our articles of association provide that our issued share capital may be reduced by a resolution adopted by a two-thirds majority of the votes at a quorate extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting. If the reduction of capital results in the capital being reduced below the legally prescribed minimum, the general meeting of the shareholders must, at the same time, resolve to increase the capital up to the required level.
General Meeting of Shareholders
Any regularly constituted general meeting of our shareholders represents the entire body of shareholders.
Each of our common shares entitles the holder thereof to attend our general meeting of shareholders, either in person or by proxy, to address the general meeting of shareholders and to exercise voting rights, subject to the provisions of Luxembourg law and our articles of association. Each common share entitles the holder to one vote at a general meeting of shareholders. Our articles of association provide that our board of directors shall adopt as it deems fit all other regulations and rules concerning the attendance to the general meeting.
A general meeting of our shareholders may, at any time, be convened by our board of directors, to be held at such place and on such date as specified in the convening notice of such meeting. Our articles of association and Luxembourg law provide that a general meeting of shareholders must be convened by our board of directors, upon request in writing indicating the agenda, addressed to our board of directors by one or more shareholders representing at least 10% of our issued share capital. In such case, a general meeting of shareholders must be convened and must be held within a period of one month from receipt of
10

such request. One or more shareholders holding at least 5% of our issued share capital may request the addition of one or more items to the agenda of any general meeting of shareholders and propose resolutions. Such requests must be received at our registered office by registered mail at least 22 days before the date of such meeting.
Our articles of association provide that if our common shares are listed on a stock exchange, all shareholders recorded in any register of our shareholders are entitled to be admitted and vote at the general meeting of shareholders based on the number of shares they hold on a date and time preceding the general meeting of shareholders as the record date for admission to the general meeting of shareholders (the “Record Date”), which the board of directors may determine as specified in the convening notice, subject to the law of May 24, 2011 on the exercise of certain rights of shareholders of listed companies (the “Shareholder Rights Law”). Furthermore, any shareholder, holder or depositary, as the case may be, who wishes to attend the general meeting must inform us thereof no later than on the fourteenth day preceding the date of such general meeting, or by any other date which the board of directors may determine and as specified in the convening notice, in a manner to be determined by our board of directors in the notice convening the general meeting of the shareholders. In the case of common shares held through the operator of a securities settlement system or with a depositary, or sub-depositary designated by such depositary, a shareholder wishing to attend a general meeting of shareholders should receive from such operator or depositary a certificate certifying the number of common shares recorded in the relevant account on the Record Date. The certificate should be submitted to us at our registered office no later than three business days prior to the date of such general meeting. In the event that the shareholder votes by means of a proxy, the proxy must be deposited at our registered office at the same time or with any of our agents duly authorized to receive such proxies. Our board of directors may set a shorter period for the submission of the certificate or the proxy in which case this will be specified in the convening notice.
The convening of, and attendance to, our general meetings is subject to the provisions of the Shareholder Rights Law.
General meetings of shareholders shall be convened in accordance with the provisions of our articles of association and the 1915 Luxembourg Companies Act, the Shareholder Rights Law and the requirements of any stock exchange on which our shares are listed. The Shareholder Rights Law provides inter alia that convening notices for any general meeting shall contain the agenda of the meeting and shall take the form of announcements published in the RESA, in a Luxembourg newspaper and in the media, in a manner which ensures effective dissemination of information to the public throughout the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and which ensures prompt access to such information on a non-discriminatory basis. Notices by mail shall also be sent at least 30 days before the meeting to registered shareholders; provided that no proof of compliance with this requirement is necessary. Where all the common shares are in registered form, the convening notices may be made only by registered letters.
In the event (i) an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders is convened to vote on an extraordinary resolution (see below under “— Voting Rights” for additional information), (ii) such meeting is not quorate and (iii) a second meeting is convened, the second meeting will be convened by means of announcements published in the RESA, in a Luxembourg newspaper and in the media, in a manner which ensures effective dissemination of information to the public throughout the EEA and which ensures prompt access to such information on a non-discriminatory basis, at least 17 days prior to the meeting if the agenda has not been modified or at least 30 days if the agenda has been modified.
Pursuant to our articles of association, if all shareholders are present or represented at a general meeting of shareholders and state that they have been informed of the agenda of the meeting, the general meeting of shareholders may be held without prior notice.
Our annual general meeting is held on the date set forth in the corresponding convening notice within six months of the end of each financial year at our registered office or such other place as specified in such convening notice.
11

Voting Rights
Each share entitles the holder thereof to one vote at a general meeting of shareholders.
Luxembourg law distinguishes between ordinary resolutions and extraordinary resolutions. Extraordinary resolutions relate to proposed amendments to the articles of association and certain other limited matters. All other resolutions are ordinary resolutions.
Ordinary Resolutions.   Pursuant to our articles of association and Luxembourg Corporate Law, ordinary resolutions shall be adopted by a simple majority of votes validly cast on such resolution at a general meeting. Abstentions and nil votes will not be taken into account.
Appointment and Removal of Directors.    Members of our board of directors are elected by ordinary resolution at a general meeting of shareholders. Under our articles of association, all directors are elected for a period of up to four years provided however that our directors shall be elected on a staggered basis. Any director may be removed with or without cause and with or without prior notice by a simple majority vote at any general meeting of shareholders. The articles of association provide that, in case of a vacancy, our board of directors may fill such vacancy on a temporary basis by a person designated by the remaining members of our board of directors until the next general meeting of shareholders, which will resolve on a permanent appointment. The directors shall be eligible for re-election indefinitely.
Extraordinary Resolutions.   Extraordinary resolutions are required for any of the following matters, among others: (a) an increase or decrease of the authorized share capital or issued share capital, (b) a limitation or exclusion of preemptive rights, (c) approval of a merger (fusion) or de-merger (scission), (d) dissolution, (e) an amendment to our articles of association and (f) a change of nationality. Pursuant to Luxembourg law and our articles of association, for any extraordinary resolutions to be considered at a general meeting, the quorum must generally be at least 50% of our issued share capital. Any extraordinary resolution shall generally be adopted at a quorate general meeting upon a two-thirds majority of the votes validly cast on such resolution. In case such quorum is not reached, a second meeting may be convened by our board of directors in which no quorum is required, and which must generally still approve the amendment with two-thirds of the votes validly cast. Abstentions and nil votes will not be taken into account.
Neither Luxembourg law nor our articles of association contain any restrictions as to the voting of our common shares by non-Luxembourg residents.
Amendment to Articles of Association
Shareholder Approval Requirements.   Luxembourg law requires that an amendment to our articles of association generally be made by extraordinary resolution. The agenda of the general meeting of shareholders must indicate the proposed amendments to the articles of association.
Pursuant to Luxembourg Corporate Law and our articles of association, for an extraordinary resolution to be considered at a general meeting, the quorum must generally be at least 50% of our issued share capital. Any extraordinary resolution shall be adopted at a quorate general meeting (save as otherwise required by law) upon a two-thirds majority of the votes validly cast on such resolution. If the quorum of 50% is not reached at this meeting, a second general meeting may be convened, in which no quorum is required, and may approve the resolution at a majority of two-third of votes validly cast.
Formalities.   Any resolutions to amend the articles of association or to approve a merger, de-merger, dissolution or change of nationality must be taken before a Luxembourg notary and such amendments must be published in accordance with Luxembourg law.
Merger and Division
A merger by absorption whereby one Luxembourg company, after its dissolution without liquidation, transfers to another company all of its assets and liabilities in exchange for the issuance of common shares in the acquiring company to the shareholders of the company being acquired, or a merger effected by transfer of assets to a newly incorporated company, must, in principle, be approved at a general meeting of
12

shareholders by an extraordinary resolution of the Luxembourg company, and the general meeting of shareholders must be held before a Luxembourg notary. Further conditions and formalities under Luxembourg law are to be complied with in this respect.
Liquidation
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets remaining after allowing for the payment of all liabilities will be paid out to the shareholders pro rata according to their respective shareholdings. Generally, the decisions to liquidate, dissolve or wind-up require the passing of an extraordinary resolution at a general meeting of our shareholders, and such meeting must be held before a Luxembourg notary.
Mandatory Takeover, Squeeze-Out and Sell-Out Rights under the Luxembourg Takeover Law
Mandatory bid
The Luxembourg law of May 19, 2006 implementing Directive 2004/25/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of April 21, 2004 on takeover bids (the “Takeover Law”) provides that, if a person acting alone or in concert acquires securities of our Company which, when added to any existing holdings of our securities, give such person voting rights representing at least one-third of all of the voting rights attached to the issued shares of our Company, this person is required to make an offer for the remaining shares of our Company. In a mandatory bid situation, a “fair price” is in principle considered to be the highest price paid by the offeror or a person acting in concert with the offeror for the securities during the 12-month period preceding the mandatory bid.
Squeeze-out right
The Takeover Law provides that, when an offer (mandatory or voluntary) is made to all of the holders of voting securities of our Company and after such offer the offeror holds at least 95% of the securities carrying voting rights and 95% of the voting rights, the offeror may require the holders of the remaining securities to sell those securities (of the same class) to the offeror. The price offered for such securities must be a fair price. The price offered in a voluntary offer would be considered a fair price in the squeeze-out proceedings if the offeror acquired at least 90% of our shares carrying voting rights that were the subject of the offer. The price paid in a mandatory offer is deemed a fair price. The consideration paid in the squeeze-out proceedings must take the same form as the consideration offered in the offer or consist solely of cash. Moreover, an all-cash option must be offered to the remaining shareholders. Finally, the right to initiate squeeze-out proceedings must be exercised within three months following the expiration of the offer.
Sell-out right
The Takeover Law provides that, when an offer (mandatory or voluntary) is made to all of the holders of our voting securities and if after such offer the offeror holds securities carrying more than 90% of the voting rights, the remaining security holders may require that the offeror purchase the remaining securities of the same class. The price offered in a voluntary offer would be considered “fair” in the sell-out proceedings if the offeror acquired at least 90% of our shares carrying voting rights and which were the subject of the offer. The price paid in a mandatory offer is deemed a fair price. The consideration paid in the sell-out proceedings must take the same form as the consideration offered in the offer or consist solely of cash. Moreover, an all-cash option must be offered to our remaining shareholders. Finally, the right to initiate sell-out proceedings must be exercised within three months following the expiration of the offer.
We also fall under the scope of the Luxembourg law of July 21, 2012 on the squeeze-out and sell-out of securities of companies admitted or having been admitted to trading on a regulated market or which have been subject to a public offer (the “Luxembourg Mandatory Squeeze-Out and Sell-Out Law”). The Luxembourg Mandatory Squeeze-Out and Sell-Out Law provides that, subject to the conditions set forth therein being met, if any individual or legal entity, acting alone or in concert with another, holds a number of shares or other voting securities representing at least 95% of our voting share capital and 95% of our voting rights: (i) such holder may require the holders of the remaining shares or other voting securities to sell those remaining securities (the “Mandatory Squeeze-Out”); and (ii) the holders of the remaining shares
13

or securities may require such holder to purchase those remaining shares or other voting securities (the “Mandatory Sell-Out”). The Mandatory Squeeze-Out and the Mandatory Sell-Out must be exercised at a fair price according to objective and adequate methods applying to asset disposals. The procedures applicable to the Mandatory Squeeze-Out and the Mandatory Sell-Out are subject to further conditions and must be carried out under the supervision of the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the “CSSF”).
Disclosure of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities
Pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 16, 2014 on market abuse and related regulations (collectively referred to as the “Market Abuse Regulation”), persons discharging managerial responsibilities as well as persons closely associated with them, must notify the CSSF and us of every transaction conducted on their own account (a concept that must be interpreted within the meaning of the Market Abuse Regulation) relating to our common shares or to derivatives or other financial instruments, the value of which depends on or has an effect on the price or value of our common shares. The obligation applies to any subsequent transaction once a total amount of €5,000 has been reached within a calendar year, calculated by adding without netting all relevant transactions relating to the securities. The notification must be made promptly and no later than three business days after the date of the transaction. We must ensure that any information related to relevant transactions which we receive is made public promptly, and no later than three business days after the transaction, in the manner reserved for regulated information (see “Publication of regulated information”).
For the purpose of the Market Abuse Regulation, a “person discharging managerial responsibilities” means a person who is (a) a member of the administrative, management or supervisory body of that entity; or (b) a senior executive who is not a member of the bodies referred to in clause (a), who has regular access to inside information relating directly or indirectly to that entity and power to take managerial decisions affecting the future developments and business prospects of that entity.
“Persons discharging senior managerial responsibilities” within our Company are the members of our board of directors and the members of our senior management identified in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC.
Publication of regulated information
Pursuant to directive 2004/109/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of December 15, 2004 on the harmonization of transparency requirements in relation to information about issuers whose securities are admitted on trading on a regulated market (the “Transparency Directive”), issuers that fall within the scope of that directive are required to provide ongoing and periodic information which the directive defines as “regulated information.” As regards that regulated information, the Transparency Directive imposes three obligations on issuers:

publish the regulated information;

make this information available to an Officially Appointed Mechanism (“OAM”) for the central storage of regulated information; and

file the regulated information with the competent authority of the relevant home Member State within the EEA.
In accordance with article 20 of the Luxembourg law of January 11, 2008 implementing the Transparency Directive (the “Luxembourg Transparency Law”), issuers are required to disclose regulated information in a manner ensuring fast access to such information on a non-discriminatory basis. Thus, they shall use such media as may reasonably be relied upon for the effective dissemination of information to the public in all EEA Member States.
We are required to file the aforementioned information with the CSSF and to make this information available to the OAM in Luxembourg.
14

No Appraisal Rights
Neither Luxembourg law nor our articles of association provide for any appraisal rights of dissenting shareholders.
Distributions
Subject to Luxembourg law, if and when a dividend is declared by the general meeting of shareholders or an interim dividend is declared by our board of directors, each common share is entitled to participate equally in such distribution of funds legally available for such purposes. Pursuant to our articles of association, our board of directors may pay interim dividends, subject to Luxembourg law.
Declared and unpaid distributions held by us for the account of the shareholders shall not bear interest. Under Luxembourg law, claims for unpaid distributions will lapse in our favor five years after the date such distribution became due and payable.
Any amount payable with respect to dividends and other distributions declared and payable may be freely transferred out of Luxembourg, except that any specific transfer may be prohibited or limited by anti-money laundering regulations, freezing orders or similar restrictive measures.
Annual Accounts
Under Luxembourg law, our board of directors must prepare annual accounts and consolidated accounts. Except for certain cases as provided for by Luxembourg law, our board of directors must also annually prepare management reports on the annual accounts and consolidated accounts. The annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, management reports and auditor’s reports must be available for inspection by shareholders at our registered office and on our website for an uninterrupted period beginning at least 30 calendar days prior to the date of the annual ordinary general meeting of shareholders.
The annual accounts and consolidated accounts are audited by an approved statutory auditor (réviseur dentreprises agréé).
The annual accounts and the consolidated accounts will be filed with the Luxembourg Trade and Companies Register (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés of Luxembourg) and disseminated as regulated information.
Information Rights
Luxembourg law gives shareholders limited rights to inspect certain corporate records prior to the date of the annual ordinary general meeting of shareholders, including the annual accounts with the list of directors and auditors, the consolidated accounts, the notes to the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts, a list of shareholders whose common shares are not fully paid up, the management reports, the auditor’s report and, in case of amendments to the articles of association, the text of the proposed amendments and the draft of the resulting consolidated articles of association.
In addition, any registered shareholder is entitled to receive, upon request, a copy of the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, the auditor’s reports and the management reports free of charge prior to the date of the annual ordinary general meeting of shareholders.
Under the Shareholder Rights Law, every shareholder has the right to ask questions related to items on the agenda of the general meeting. The company shall answer the questions put to it by shareholders, subject to the measures which it may take to ensure the identification of shareholders, the good order of general meetings and their preparation, and the protection of confidentiality and its business interests. The company may provide one overall answer to questions having the same content. Where the relevant information is available on its Internet site in a question and answer format, the company shall be deemed to have answered to the questions asked by referring to its site.
Disclosure of Significant Ownership of Our Common Shares
Holders of common shares, including depositary receipts representing common shares admitted to trading on a regulated market and for which Luxembourg is the home Member State within the meaning of the Luxembourg Transparency Law and to which voting rights are attached (the “Securities”) and
15

derivatives or other financial instruments linked to the Securities may be subject to notification obligations pursuant to the Luxembourg Transparency Law and the Grand ducal regulation of January 11, 2008 on transparency requirements for issuers, as amended. The following description summarizes these obligations. Our shareholders are advised to consult with their own legal advisers to determine whether the notification obligations apply to them.
The Luxembourg Transparency Law provides that, subject to limited exceptions, if a person acquires or disposes of our Securities, and following such acquisition or disposal, the proportion of voting rights held by such person reaches, exceeds or falls below one of the thresholds of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 3313% , 50% or 6623% (each, a “Relevant Threshold”) of our total voting rights existing when the situation giving rise to a declaration occurs, such person must simultaneously notify us and the CSSF of proportion of voting rights held by it after such event. The voting rights shall be calculated on the basis of all of the common shares, including depositary receipts representing common shares, to which voting rights are attached, even if the exercise thereof is suspended. Moreover, this information shall be given in respect of all of the common shares, including depositary receipts representing common shares, which are in the same class and to which voting rights are attached. A person must also notify us and the CSSF of the proportion of his or her voting rights if that proportion reaches, exceeds or falls below any Relevant Threshold as a result of events changing the breakdown of voting rights and on the basis of the information disclosed by us.
The same notification requirements apply to a natural person or legal entity to the extent such person or entity is entitled to acquire, dispose of, or exercise voting rights in any of the following cases or a combination of them:
(a)
voting rights held by a third party with whom that person or entity has concluded an agreement, which obliges them to adopt, by concerted exercise of the voting rights they hold, a lasting common policy towards the management of the issuer;
(b)
voting rights held by a third party under an agreement concluded with that person or entity providing for the temporary transfer for consideration of the voting rights in question;
(c)
voting rights attaching to Securities which are lodged as collateral with that person or entity, provided the person or entity controls the voting rights and declares his intention of exercising them;
(d)
voting rights attaching to Securities in which that person or entity has the life interest;
(e)
voting rights which are held, or may be exercised within the meaning of clauses (a) to (d), by an undertaking controlled by that person or entity;
(f)
voting rights attaching to Securities deposited with that person or entity which the person or entity can exercise at his discretion in the absence of specific instructions from the Securities holders;
(g)
voting rights held by a third party in its own name on behalf of that person or entity;
(h)
voting rights which that person or entity may exercise as a proxy where the person or entity can exercise the voting rights at his discretion in the absence of specific instructions from the Securities holders.
The above notification requirements also apply to a natural person or legal entity that holds, directly or indirectly, financial instruments linked to our common shares.
Board of Directors
Globant S.A. is managed by our board of directors which is vested with the broadest powers to take any actions necessary or useful to fulfill our corporate purpose with the exception of actions reserved by law or our articles of association to the general meeting of shareholders. Our articles of association provide that our board of directors must consist of at least seven members and no more than 15 members. Our board of directors meets as often as company interests require.
16

A majority of the members of our board of directors present or represented at a board meeting constitutes a quorum, and resolutions are adopted by the simple majority vote of our board members present or represented. In the case of a tie, the chairman of our board shall have the deciding vote. Our board of directors may also make decisions by means of resolutions in writing signed by all directors.
Directors are elected by the general meeting of shareholders, and appointed for a period of up to four years; provided, however, that directors are elected on a staggered basis, with one-third of the directors being elected each year; and provided, further, that such term may be exceeded by a period up to the annual general meeting held following the fourth anniversary of the appointment, and each director will hold office until his or her successor is elected. The general shareholders’ meeting may remove one or more directors at any time, without cause and without prior notice by a resolution passed by simple majority vote. If our board of directors has a vacancy, such vacancy may be filled on a temporary basis by a person designated by the remaining members of our board of directors until the next general meeting of shareholders, which will resolve on a permanent appointment. Any director shall be eligible for re-election indefinitely.
Within the limits provided for by applicable law and our articles of association, our board of directors may delegate to one or more directors or to any one or more persons, who need not be shareholders, acting alone or jointly, the daily management of Globant S.A. and the authority to represent us in connection with such daily management. Our board of directors may also grant special powers to any person(s) acting alone or jointly with others as agent of Globant S.A.
Our board of directors may establish one or more committees, including without limitation, an audit committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee and a compensation committee, and for which it shall, if one or more of such committees are set up, appoint the members, determine the purpose, powers and authorities as well as the procedures and such other rules as may be applicable thereto. Our board of directors has established an audit committee pursuant to the Luxembourg law of 23 July 2016 concerning the audit profession, as well as a compensation committee, a corporate governance and nominating committee.
No contract or other transaction between us and any other company or firm shall be affected or invalidated by the fact that any one or more of our directors or officers is interested in, or is a director, associate, officer, agent, adviser or employee of such other company or firm. Any director or officer who serves as a director, officer or employee or otherwise of any company or firm with which we shall contract or otherwise engage in business shall not, by reason of such affiliation with such other company or firm only, be prevented from considering and voting or acting upon any matters with respect to such contract or other business.
Any director who has, directly or indirectly, a conflicting interest in a transaction submitted for approval to our board of directors that conflicts with our interest, must inform our board of directors thereof and to cause a record of his statement to be included in the minutes of the meeting. Such director may not take part in these deliberations and may not vote on the relevant transaction. At the next general meeting, before any resolution is put to a vote, a special report shall be made on any transactions in which any of the directors may have had an interest that conflicts with our interest.
No shareholding qualification for directors is required.
Any director and other officer, past and present, is entitled to indemnification from us to the fullest extent permitted by law against liability and all expenses reasonably incurred or paid by such director in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding in which he or she is involved as a party or otherwise by virtue of his or her being or having been a director. We may purchase and maintain insurance for any director or other officer against any such liability.
No indemnification shall be provided against any liability to us or our shareholders by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of a director or officer. No indemnification will be provided with respect to any matter as to which the director or officer shall have been finally adjudicated to have acted in bad faith and not in our interest, nor will indemnification be provided in the event of a settlement (unless approved by a court or our board of directors).
17

Registrars and Registers for Our Common Shares
All of our common shares are in registered form only.
We keep a register of common shares at our registered office in Luxembourg. This register is available for inspection by any shareholder. In addition, we may appoint registrars in different jurisdictions who will each maintain a separate register for the registered common shares entered therein. It is possible for our shareholders to elect the entry of their common shares in one of these registers and the transfer thereof at any time from one register to any other, including to the register kept at our registered office. However, our board of directors may restrict such transfers for common shares that are registered, listed, quoted, dealt in or have been placed in certain jurisdictions in compliance with the requirements applicable therein.
Our articles of association provide that the ownership of registered common shares is established by inscription in the relevant register. We may consider the person in whose name the registered common shares are registered in the relevant register as the owner of such registered common shares.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our common shares is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, with an address at 6201 15th Avenue Brooklyn, New York, New York 11219.
Our common shares are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “GLOB” and on the on the LuxSE and admitted to trade on the regulated market of the LuxSE under the International Securities Identification Number LU0974299876.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
General
We or any selling shareholders may sell the shares directly to purchasers or to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents in one or more transactions at any time at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices, or through any combination of the foregoing. Such sales may be effected in transactions on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the shares may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions other than on such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market. We or any selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

underwritten public offerings;

block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the common shares as agent, but may position or resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by such broker-dealer for its account;

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

in privately negotiated transactions; or

through a combination of any of these methods of sale or by any other legally available means.
We or any selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions from time to time in which a selling shareholder may:

enter into transactions with a broker-dealer or any other person in connection with which such broker-dealer or other person will engage in short sales of the shares, in which case such broker-dealer or other person may use the shares received from we or any selling shareholders to close out its short positions;

sell common shares short and re-deliver shares offered by this prospectus to close out its short positions;

enter into options or other types of transactions that require we or any selling shareholder to deliver the shares to a broker-dealer, affiliate or third party, who will then resell or transfer the shares under this prospectus; or

loan or pledge the shares to a broker-dealer or any other person, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares under this prospectus.
We or any selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Selling Shareholders
The selling shareholders, and their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may offer our securities in one or more offerings, and if required by applicable law or in connection with an underwritten offering, pursuant to one or more prospectus supplements, and any such prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of the relevant offering as described above. To the extent our shares offered by a selling shareholder pursuant to a prospectus supplement remain unsold, the selling shareholder may offer those shares on different terms pursuant to another prospectus supplement. Sales by the selling shareholders may not require the provision of a prospectus supplement.
In addition to the foregoing, each of the selling shareholders may offer our securities at various times in one or more of the following transactions: through short sales, derivative and hedging transactions; by pledge to secure debts and other obligations; through offerings of securities exchangeable, convertible or
19

exercisable for our securities; under forward purchase contracts with trusts, investment companies or other entities (which may, in turn, distribute their own securities); through distribution to its members, partners or shareholders; in exchange or over-the-counter market transactions; and/or in private transactions.
There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the common shares covered by this prospectus.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of our common shares. We or any selling shareholders will bear the fees, discounts, concessions and commissions incurred by the selling shareholders in connection with resales of the common shares.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are a Luxembourg joint stock company (société anonyme). Most of our assets are located outside the United States. Furthermore, most of our directors and officers and some experts named in this prospectus reside outside the United States and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, investors may not be able to effect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons or to enforce judgments obtained against us or these persons, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities law. Likewise, it may also be difficult for an investor to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained against us or these persons in courts located in jurisdictions outside the U.S., including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.
Luxembourg
It may be difficult for an investor to bring an original action in a Luxembourg court predicated solely upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us, our directors or our officers. There is doubt as to whether Luxembourg courts would permit such actions or enforce any civil liabilities thereon. Furthermore, Luxembourg law does not recognize a shareholder’s right to bring a derivative action on our behalf, except in limited cases.
As there is no treaty in force on the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters between the United States and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, courts in Luxembourg will not automatically recognize and enforce a final judgment rendered by a U.S. court. A valid judgment in civil or commercial matters obtained from a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States may be entered and enforced through a court of competent jurisdiction in Luxembourg, subject to compliance with the enforcement procedures (exequatur). The enforceability in Luxembourg courts of judgments rendered by U.S. courts will be subject, prior to any enforcement in Luxembourg, to the procedure and the conditions set forth in the Luxembourg procedural code, which conditions may include the following as of the date of this prospectus:

the judgment of the U.S. court is final and enforceable (exécutoire) in the United States;

the U.S. court had jurisdiction over the subject matter leading to the judgment (that is, its jurisdiction was in compliance both with Luxembourg private international law rules and with the applicable domestic U.S. federal or state jurisdictional rules);

the U.S. court has applied to the dispute the substantive law that would have been applied by Luxembourg courts;

the judgment was granted following proceedings where the counterparty had the opportunity to appear and, if it appeared, to present a defense, and the decision of the foreign court must not have been obtained by fraud, but in compliance with the rights of the defendant;

the U.S. court has acted in accordance with its own procedural laws; and

the judgment of the U.S. court does not contravene Luxembourg international public policy or rules, nor has the judgment been given in proceedings of a tax or criminal nature or rendered subsequent to an evasion of Luxembourg law (fraude a la loi).
In addition, awards of damages made under civil liabilities provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, or other laws, which are classified by Luxembourg courts as being of a penal or punitive nature (for example, fines or punitive damages) may not be recognized by Luxembourg courts). While an ordinary award of monetary damages would not be considered as a penalty, if an award of monetary damages includes punitive damages, a Luxembourg court may consider such punitive damages a penalty.
Argentina
It may be difficult for an investor to bring an original action in an Argentine court predicated solely upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us, our directors or our officers. There is doubt as to whether Argentine courts would permit such actions or enforce any civil liabilities thereon.
21

Prior to any enforcement in Argentina, a judgments entered by a U.S. court will be subject to the procedures and conditions set forth in of Article 517 of the Argentine Civil and Commercial Procedure Code (approved by Law No. 17,454 as amended by Law No. 22, 434), which includes the following conditions:

the judgment must be final in the jurisdiction where rendered, issued by a competent court in accordance with Argentine jurisdictional principles and result from (a) a personal action or (b) in rem action with respect to personal property which was transferred to Argentina during or after the prosecution of the foreign action;

the defendant against whom enforcement of the judgment is sought must be personally served with the summons, in accordance with due process of law, and given an opportunity to defend against the foreign action;

the judgment must be valid in the jurisdiction where rendered and its authenticity must be established in accordance with the requirements of Argentine law;

the judgment cannot contravene Argentine principles of public order; and

the judgment cannot be contrary to a prior or simultaneous judgment of an Argentine court.
