Slide 7: Great Start to FY2022

So, let's get going. Turning to slide 7, I am proud to report a greatstart to fiscal year 2022.

At our analyst and investor business update last November, we outlined our strategy to deliver accelerated revenue growth by bringing market-leadinginnovation designed to meet the industry's need for digital modernization, 5G monetization, journey to the cloud and network automation.

Based on our first quarter performance, I believe our strategy is continuously gaining traction in the market, evidenced by another quarter of strong sales momentum across long-standing global customers such as AT&T, T-Mobile,Vodafone, Globe Telecom, and others.

Additionally, we penetrated several new logos that support our ongoing growth and regional expansion, including PPF Group in Europe and Vodacom in Africa.

Our customer's investments in industry megatrends like 5G and cloud are gathering pace and translating to strong demand for our products and services. The relevancy of our offerings to the market results from our past and ongoing commitment to R&D investment which further extends our technological leadership and brings cutting- edge innovation to our customers.

To add a further point, I believe our capacity to win new business is a function of our unrivalled reputation for project delivery, as demonstrated by yet another record quarter for the number of deployment milestones achieved for our customers in Q1.

M&A is another important tool we use strategically to accelerate our capabilities in key growth areas.

  • Focusing on our cloud strategy, I am delighted to announce our acquisition of DevOpsGroup, a boutique UK-based cloud company specializing in engineering, consultancy and training services for enterprises implementing cloud and DevOps. DevOpsGroup geographically complements the high-end expertise we acquired with last year's acquisition of Sourced Group and further strengthens our professional services organization to support all aspects of our customers cloud journey including consulting, cloud-native software, migration of

Slide 9: Committed to our People

I would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm welcome to all those who have recently joined the Amdocs family, and my sincere thanks to all our people for their dedication, resilience, and commitment to ensuring a great start to our fiscal year.
