financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Second-Quarter 2024 Operating Results
Revenue for the second quarter of $3,814 million increased 2.3
percent on a reported basis and 3.5 percent at constant currency,
compared to the second quarter of 2023. Technology & Analytics
Solutions (TAS) revenue of $1,495 million increased 2.7 percent on

“IQVIA delivered second quarter results at the high-end of our
guidance, driven mainly by better-than-expected TAS performance,"
stated Ari Bousbib, chairman and CEO of IQVIA. "The team is focused
on strong operational execution. In the quarter, profit margin
expanded, free cash flow was strong, and Adjusted Diluted EPS grew
8.6 percent. The R&DS segment continued to perform well and
again delivered strong bookings, reflecting demand for IQVIA’s
highly differentiated solutions. Forward-looking indicators, such
as RFP flow and qualified pipeline, remain healthy. TAS performance
in the quarter provides a smoother path to our full-year total
company and segment targets."

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, without
limitation, our full-year 2024 guidance. In this context,
forward-looking statements often address expected future business
and financial performance and financial condition, and often
contain words such as “expect,” “assume,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“plan,” “forecast,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,”
“target,” similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these
words that are intended to identify forward-looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements contain these
identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from our
expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited
to, the following: business disruptions caused by natural
disasters, pandemics such as the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak,
including any variants, and the public health policy responses to
the outbreak, and international conflicts or other disruptions
outside of our control such as the current situation in Ukraine and
Russia; most of our contracts may be terminated on short notice,
and we may lose or experience delays with large client contracts or
be unable to enter into new contracts; the market for our services
may not grow as we expect; we may be unable to successfully develop
and market new services or enter new markets; imposition of
restrictions on our use of data by data suppliers or their refusal
to license data to us; any failure by us to comply with
contractual, regulatory or ethical requirements under our
contracts, including current or future changes to data protection
and privacy laws; breaches or misuse of our or our outsourcing
partners’ security or communications systems; failure to meet our
productivity or business transformation objectives; failure to
successfully invest in growth opportunities; our ability to protect
our intellectual property rights and our susceptibility to claims
by others that we are infringing on their intellectual property
rights; the expiration or inability to acquire third party licenses
for technology or intellectual property; any failure by us to
accurately and timely price and formulate cost estimates for
contracts, or to document change orders; hardware and software
failures, delays in the operation of our computer and
communications systems or the failure to implement system
enhancements; the rate at which our backlog converts to revenue;
our ability to acquire, develop and implement technology necessary
for our business; consolidation in the industries in which our
clients operate; risks related to client or therapeutic
concentration; government regulators or our customers may limit the
number or scope of indications for medicines and treatments or
withdraw products from the market, and government regulators may
impose new regulatory requirements or may adopt new regulations
affecting the biopharmaceutical industry; the risks associated with
operating on a global basis, including currency or exchange rate
fluctuations and legal compliance, including anti-corruption laws;
risks related to changes in accounting standards; general economic
conditions in the markets in which we operate, including financial
market conditions, inflation, and risks related to sales to
government entities; the impact of changes in tax laws and
regulations; and our ability to successfully integrate, and achieve
expected benefits from, our acquired businesses. For a further
discussion of the risks relating to our business, see the “Risk
Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), as such factors may be amended or updated
from time to time in our subsequent periodic and other filings with
the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be
read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are
included in this release and in our filings with the SEC. We assume
no obligation to update any such forward-looking statement after
the date of this release, whether as a result of new information,
future developments or otherwise.
Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes information based on financial measures
that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States ("GAAP"), such as Adjusted EBITDA,
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Gross
Leverage Ratio, Net Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow. Non-GAAP
financial measures are presented only as a supplement to the
company’s financial statements based on GAAP. Non-GAAP financial
information is provided to enhance understanding of the company’s
financial performance, but none of these non-GAAP financial
measures are recognized terms under GAAP, and non-GAAP measures
should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute
analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in
accordance with GAAP. The company uses non-GAAP measures in its
operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is
useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it
regards to be a more meaningful indicator of the underlying
operating performance of the business. For example, the company
excludes all the amortization of intangible assets associated with
acquired customer relationships and backlog, databases, non-compete
agreements, trademarks and trade names from non-GAAP expense and
income measures as such amounts can be significantly impacted by
the timing and size of acquisitions. Although we exclude
amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP
expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to
understand that revenue generated from such intangibles is included
within revenue in determining net income. As a result, internal
management reports feature non-GAAP measures which are also used to
prepare strategic plans and annual budgets and review management
compensation. The company also believes that investors may find
non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although
investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a
substitute for GAAP disclosures.
The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance
with GAAP. Please refer to the schedules attached to this release
for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein
to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Our full-year 2024
guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP
basis without a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP
measure because the company is unable to predict with a reasonable
degree of certainty certain items contained in the GAAP measures
without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the company is
unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable
information. Such items include, but are not limited to,
acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses,
stock-based compensation and other items not reflective of the
company's ongoing operations.
Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts,
investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of
companies comparable to the company, many of which present non-GAAP
measures when reporting their results. Non-GAAP measures have
limitations as an analytical tool. They are not presentations made
in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or
liquidity and should not be considered as an alternative to profit
or loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP or
operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP
measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled
measures used by other companies. As a result, you should not
consider such performance measures in isolation from, or as a
substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as
determined in accordance with GAAP.
