ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial and market risk (including foreign currency and interest rate risk).
Foreign currency exchange risk
The Company serves many of its U.S. based clients through our delivery centers located in various countries, primarily in the Philippines, Pakistan, Nicaragua, and Jamaica. Although contracts with these clients are typically priced in U.S. dollars, a substantial portion of related costs is denominated in the local currency of the country where services are provided, resulting in foreign currency exposure that could have an impact on our results of operations. Our primary foreign currency exposures are in Philippine Peso (“PHP”), Jamaican Dollar, and Pakistani Rupee. There can be no assurance that we can take actions to mitigate such exposure in the

future, and if taken, that such actions will be successful or that future changes in currency exchange rates will not have a material adverse impact on our future operating results. A significant change in the value of the U.S. dollar against the currency of one or more countries where we operate may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
The following table summarizes the relative strengthening / (weakening) of the U.S. dollar against the local currencies that are most relevant to our business:
June 30,
Currency 2025 2024 2023
Philippine Peso (4.3) % 6.2 % 0.5 %
Jamaican Dollar 2.2 % 1.5 % 1.2 %
Pakistani Rupee 1.9 % (2.7) % 39.6 %
To mitigate foreign exchange fluctuations on the PHP we hedge a portion of our Philippine operating costs. While our hedging strategy can protect us from short term risks related to foreign currency movements, an overall strengthening of the PHP would adversely impact margins over the long term.
Based upon our level of operations during the year ended June 30, 2025, a 10% appreciation/depreciation in the PHP against the U.S. dollar would have increased or decreased our expenses incurred and paid in PHP by approximately $14.1 million or $11.6 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2025. Based upon our level of operations during the year ended June 30, 2025, a 10% appreciation/depreciation in the Jamaican Dollar against the U.S. dollar would have increased or decreased our expenses incurred and paid in Jamaican Dollar by approximately $5.0 million or $4.1 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2025. Based upon our level of operations during the year ended June 30, 2025, a 10% appreciation/depreciation in the Pakistani Rupee against the U.S. dollar would have increased or decreased our expenses incurred and paid in Pakistani Rupee by approximately $4.4 million or $3.6 million, respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2025.
To mitigate against credit and default risk, we only enter into derivative contracts and other financial instruments with investment grade financial institutions and our derivative valuations reflect the creditworthiness of our counterparties. As of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not experienced, nor do we anticipate experiencing, any counterparty defaults.
Refer to Note 7, “Derivatives” in the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K for additional information on our foreign currency hedging program.
Interest rate risk
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk related primarily to the HSBC Credit Facilities. Borrowings under the U.S. Credit Facility bears interest at a per annum rate equal to term SOFR plus 2%, or equal to alternate base rate plus 1%. Borrowings under the UAE Loan Facility bears interest at a per annum rate equal to 3-month term SOFR plus 2%. As of June 30, 2025, the Company did not have any outstanding balances on the HSBC Credit Facilities. Accordingly, a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in SOFR would not cause a material increase or decrease in our interest expense over the next 12 months.
