Form 8-K   Convergys Corporation            

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

Sprint Nextel has informed Convergys Corporation that it plans to end its billing relationship with Convergys over time by migrating subscribers off the Convergys Legacy Precedent 2000® system.

 

Based on discussions with Sprint Nextel, Convergys understands that Sprint Nextel’s current plan is to migrate subscribers off the Precedent 2000® platform during 2006 and 2007. In 2005 Convergys’ Information Management Group generated approximately $100 million in revenue from Sprint Nextel at profitability levels comparable to the average of the IMG business. Despite Sprint Nextel’s decision, Convergys remains comfortable with 2006 earnings guidance of at least $1.07 per share.
