Operating Performance by Segment Information Management Group (IMG IMG International medical graduate, see there ) Excluding intercompany sales, third quarter 2003 Convergys IMG revenues decreased 16 percent to $188.9 million, from $224.6 million in the same period last year. Compared to the second quarter of 2003, revenues decreased by only 3 percent. Data processing data processing or information processing, operations (e.g., handling, merging, sorting, and computing) performed upon data in accordance with strictly defined procedures, such as recording and summarizing the financial transactions of a revenues decreased 19 percent to $109.3 million from $135.5 million, representing an 8 percent year-over-year decrease in wireless subscribers processed and lower average per-wireless-subscriber processing rates. The decrease in wireless subscribers resulted from conversions off Convergys systems, partially offset by slight subscriber growth among Convergys' other wireless clients. Professional and consulting revenues decreased 33 percent to $25.0 million from $37.1 million reflecting a reduction in system enhancement requests and implementations of new systems from Convergys' cable and wireless clients. License and other revenues decreased 28 percent to $12.9 million as a result of a large up-front license recognized in the prior year in connection with the expansion of a license arrangement with one of Convergys' largest cable clients. On a positive note, international revenues increased 22 percent to $41.7 reflecting combined revenue growth of approximately $10 million resulting from Convergys' expansion in the Asia Pacific and Latin American markets. This was partially offset by lower revenues resulting from the suspension of Orange France's 3G implementation. Convergys IMG third quarter operating income decreased 38 percent to $29.0 million from $46.4 million. Operating margin was 15.4 percent compared with 20.7 percent from the third quarter of last year reflecting lower revenues and higher benefit costs, partially offset by savings realized through the restructuring restructuring - The transformation from one representation form to another at the same relative abstraction level, while preserving the subject system's external behaviour (functionality and semantics). initiatives that Convergys began in the fourth quarter of 2002.

(stock symbol) CMG Companion (of the Order Of) St Michael and St George CMG Computer Measurement Group revenues were $381.8 million, a 13 percent increase compared to $336.6 million in the third quarter of 2002, primarily reflecting increased levels of business with many of Convergys' top 20 clients as well as revenues resulting from customer care services provided to the United States Postal Service postal service, arrangements made by a government for the transmission of letters, packages, and periodicals, and for related services. Early courier systems for government use were organized in the Persian Empire under Cyrus, in the Roman Empire, and in medieval and employee care services provided to the State of Florida. Compared to the second quarter of 2003, revenues increased 4 percent. Convergys CMG third quarter operating income increased 5 percent to $46.3 million compared to $44.1 million in the prior year, while it reported a 12.1 percent operating margin in the third quarter of 2003, down from the 13.1 percent reported in the third quarter of 2002. This reflects increases in wage and benefit costs as well as increased investment in the Employee Care business, partially offset by the increase in revenues.
