First Quarter 2020 Detailed Results
First quarter 2020 total revenue was $151.3 million, up 11%
compared to the first quarter of 2019. First quarter 2020 Mailing
and Shipping revenue (which includes service, product and insurance
revenue but excludes Customized Postage) was $148.3 million, up 12%
compared to the first quarter of 2019. First quarter 2020
Customized Postage revenue was $3.1 million, down 8% compared to
the first quarter of 2019.
First quarter 2020 GAAP income from operations was $24.2
million, GAAP net income was $16.5 million, and GAAP net income per
share was $0.91 based on 18.2 million fully diluted shares
outstanding. This compares to first quarter 2019 GAAP income from
operations of $23.2 million, GAAP net income of $15.8 million, and
GAAP net income per share of $0.87 based on 18.0 million fully
diluted shares outstanding. First quarter 2020 GAAP income from
operations, GAAP net income, and GAAP income per fully diluted
share increased by 4%, 5%, and 4% year-over-year, respectively.
First quarter 2020 GAAP income from operations included $10.7
million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and $5.5
million of non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles. First
quarter 2020 GAAP net income included $93 thousand of non-cash
amortization of debt issuance costs. First quarter 2020 GAAP income
tax expense was $7.1 million and non-GAAP income tax expense was
$16.0 million, resulting in a $8.9 million non-GAAP tax expense
adjustment. The higher non-GAAP tax expense reflects the tax impact
on the non-GAAP pre-tax income at a non-GAAP effective tax rate of
40.0% for the first quarter. See the section later in this release
entitled, “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information
on how non-GAAP taxes are calculated. Excluding the non-cash
stock-based compensation expense and non-cash amortization of
acquired intangibles, first quarter 2020 non-GAAP income from
operations was $40.4 million. Also excluding non-cash amortization
of debt issuance costs and including the non-GAAP tax expense
adjustment, first quarter 2020 non-GAAP adjusted income was $24.0
million or $1.32 per share based on 18.2 million fully diluted
shares outstanding.
First quarter 2019 GAAP income from operations included $8.9
million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and $5.6
million of non-cash amortization of acquired intangibles. First
quarter 2019 GAAP net income included $93 thousand of non-cash
amortization of debt issuance costs. First quarter 2019 GAAP income
tax expense was $6.7 million and non-GAAP income tax expense was
$14.8 million, resulting in an $8.1 million non-GAAP tax expense
adjustment. The higher non-GAAP tax expense reflects the tax impact
on the non-GAAP pre-tax income at a non-GAAP effective tax rate of
40.0% for the first quarter. Excluding the non-cash stock-based
compensation expense and non-cash amortization of acquired
intangibles, first quarter 2019 non-GAAP income from operations was
$37.7 million. Also excluding non-cash amortization of debt
issuance costs and including the non-GAAP tax expense adjustment,
first quarter 2019 non-GAAP adjusted income was $22.2 million or
$1.23 per share based on 18.0 million fully diluted shares
outstanding.
Therefore, first quarter 2020 non-GAAP income from operations,
non-GAAP adjusted income, and non-GAAP adjusted income per fully
diluted share increased by 7%, 8%, and 7% year-over-year,
respectively.
Non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP adjusted income, and
non-GAAP adjusted income per share are described further in the
“About Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this press release

First Quarter GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted
EBITDA
First quarter 2020 GAAP net income was $16.5 million, up 5%
compared to $15.8 million in the first quarter of 2019.
First quarter 2020 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $41.5 million,
up 6% compared to $39.2 million in the first quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is
described further in the “About Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
section of this press release and is reconciled to GAAP net income
in the following table (unaudited):

Taxes
For the first quarter of 2020, the Company reported a GAAP
income tax expense of $7.1 million representing an effective tax
rate of 30.1%. For the first quarter of 2019, the Company reported
a GAAP income tax expense of $6.7 million representing an effective
tax rate of 30.0%. As discussed below under the heading, “About
Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” we believe our effective tax rate for
2020 will be approximately 40%. Accordingly, the first quarter 2020
effective rate of 30.1% should not be assumed to apply for 2020 as
a whole, and our after tax income during the remainder of 2020 will
likely reflect a materially higher rate than is reflected in our
after tax results for the first quarter of 2020. Our first quarter
2020 GAAP net income should also be understood to have been
positively impacted by the lower effective tax rate applicable
specifically to the quarter.
Share Repurchase and Debt Repayment
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company repurchased
approximately 80 thousand shares at a total cost of approximately
$8.6 million.
On February 13, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a share
repurchase plan which became effective on February 24, 2020 and
which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $40 million of
stock over the six months following its effective date. On February
28, 2020, our Board of Directors adjusted the repurchase parameters
of the plan in response to increased market volatility to
repurchase an aggregate of approximately $19 million through the
plan’s expiration in August 2020. From February 24, 2020 to May 6,
2020, we have repurchased approximately $8.8 million under the
plan.
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company made a required
principal repayment of $3.1 million against the borrowings under
the Company’s existing credit agreement related to the Endicia
acquisition. As of March 31, 2020, total debt under the credit
agreement, excluding debt issuance costs, was $47.4 million.
Customized Postage
We received notification from the USPS that it was eliminating
its customized postage program and also revoking our authorization
to offer products pursuant to that program effective June 16, 2020.
Our primary product subject to termination is offered by the
Company under the brand PhotoStamps. The revenue and cost of
revenue associated with these products appear on our financial
statements as “Customized postage.” While the Company continues
discussions with the USPS to reverse or modify this decision, the
financial impact associated with the elimination of this product is
reflected in our updated financial guidance.
Summary of our Business Outlook
For fiscal year 2020, the Company is reaffirming its previous
guidance range and currently expects its GAAP financial outlook to
be as follows:
- We expect total revenue to be in a range of approximately $570
million to $600 million; this is unchanged from our previous
guidance.
- We expect GAAP net income to be in a range of approximately $41
million to $53 million; this is unchanged from our previous
guidance.
- We expect GAAP net income per fully diluted share to be in a
range of approximately $2.08 to $2.92; this is unchanged from our
previous guidance.
- We expect our 2020 effective tax rate to be approximately 40%;
this is unchanged from our previous guidance.
The above GAAP amounts, adjusted as detailed below, result in
the following non-GAAP financial outlook:
- We expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of
approximately $135 million to $155 million; this is unchanged from
our previous guidance.
- We expect non-GAAP adjusted income per fully diluted share to
be in a range of approximately $4.00 to $5.00; this is unchanged
from our previous guidance.
Detailed Discussion of our Business Outlook
As noted above, for 2020, the Company currently expects total
revenue to be in a range of approximately $570 million to $600
million; this is unchanged from our previous guidance.
Also, for 2020, the Company currently expects GAAP net income to
be in a range of approximately $41 million to $53 million; this is
unchanged from our previous guidance.
The expected GAAP net income range includes depreciation and
amortization expense of approximately $26 million, stock-based
compensation expense of approximately $40 million, interest and
other expense, net of approximately $1 million, and income tax
expense of approximately $27 million to $35 million. Excluding the
depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation
expense, interest and other expense, net and income tax expense, we
expect non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of approximately
$135 million to $155 million.

As noted above, for 2020, the Company currently expects GAAP net
income per fully diluted share to be in a range of approximately
$2.08 to $2.92. The expected GAAP net income per fully diluted
share range includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense of
approximately $40 million, non-cash amortization of acquired
intangibles expense of approximately $22 million, and non-cash
amortization of debt issuance costs of approximately $0.4 million.
Excluding the stock-based compensation expense, amortization of
acquired intangibles expense, and amortization of debt issuance
costs, and including higher expected non-GAAP income taxes of
approximately $25 million from the expected tax effects of these
adjustments at an assumed 40% effective full-year tax rate, we
expect non-GAAP adjusted income per fully diluted share to be in a
range of $4.00 to $5.00.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s condensed consolidated balance
sheets and consolidated statements of income presented in
accordance with GAAP, the Company uses non-GAAP measures of certain
components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures
include non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP adjusted income,
non-GAAP adjusted income per fully diluted share and adjusted
EBITDA.
Non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors’
overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and
prospects for the future and as a means to evaluate
period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes the non-GAAP
measures, which: (1) exclude certain non-cash items including
stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired
intangibles, amortization of debt issuance costs, and contingent
consideration charges; (2) exclude certain expenses and gains such
as acquisition related expenses, litigation settlement expenses,
executive consulting expenses, and insurance proceeds; and (3)
include income tax adjustments, provide meaningful supplemental
information regarding financial performance by excluding certain
expenses and benefits that may not be reflective of our underlying
operating performance.
Non-GAAP adjusted income is calculated as GAAP net income plus
the cumulative impact of the adjustments outlined in the paragraph
immediately above.
Non-GAAP adjusted income per fully diluted share is calculated
as non-GAAP adjusted income divided by fully diluted shares.
Non-GAAP income tax expense for the first, second and third
quarters of our fiscal year are calculated by multiplying the
projected annual effective tax rate in that quarter by the non-GAAP
adjusted income before taxes for the quarter. The projected annual
effective tax rate does not reflect potential future employee
option exercises in the remaining quarters of the fiscal year due
to the inherent difficulty in forecasting employee option
exercises. The projected annual effective tax rate also considers
other factors including the Company’s tax structure and its tax
positions in various jurisdictions where the Company operates. The
actual annual effective tax rate realized for the fiscal year could
differ materially from our projected annual effective tax rate used
in the first, second and third quarters.
Non-GAAP income tax expense for the fourth quarter of the fiscal
year is calculated by multiplying the actual effective tax rate for
the fiscal year by the non-GAAP adjusted income before taxes for
the fiscal year and subtracting the non-GAAP income tax expense or
benefit reported in the first, second and third quarters. As a
result, the fourth quarter reflects the tax impact of reconciling
the first, second and third quarter projected annual effective
rates to the actual effective tax rate for the fiscal year.
The projected non-GAAP full-year tax rate for 2020 is 40%.
Adjusted EBITDA as calculated in this press release represents
earnings before interest and other expense, net, interest and other
income, net, income tax expense or benefit, depreciation and
amortization and excludes certain items, such as stock-based
compensation expense.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended
to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior
to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance
with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ from
similarly titled measures used by other companies. Reconciliation
of non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to
the corresponding GAAP measures can be found in the financial
tables of this press release.
The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when
viewed with GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation,
enhance the comparability of operating results against prior
periods and allow for greater transparency of operating results.
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures in making financial,
operating, compensation and planning decisions. The Company
believes non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management and
investors in comparing the Company’s financial performance to that
of prior periods as well as in performing trend analysis over
time.
Share Repurchase Timing
The timing of share repurchases, if any, and the number of
shares to be bought at any one time will depend on factors
including market conditions and the Company’s compliance with the
covenants in its Credit Agreement. Share repurchases may be made
from time to time on the open market or in negotiated transactions
at the Company's discretion in compliance with Rule 10b-18 of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company's
purchase of any of its shares may be subject to limitations imposed
on such purchases by applicable securities laws and regulations and
the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
"Safe Harbor" Statement Under the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This release includes “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical
facts, and may relate to future events or the company’s anticipated
results, business strategies or capital requirements, among other
things, all of which involve risks and uncertainties. You can
identify many (but not all) such forward-looking statements by
looking for words such as “assumes,” “approximates,” “believes,”
“expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “seeks,”
“intends,” “plans,” “could,” “would,” “may” or other similar
expressions, and include statements that refer to future responses
to and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Important factors which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements, include (i) the Company’s ability to
monetize its customers’ transactions with carriers, including
uncertainties regarding the duration, renegotiation and ultimate
impact of existing and potential future arrangements with carriers
and our success in implementing our strategy over the long term,
(ii) the significant and unprecedented uncertainty regarding the
business and economic impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (as
well as the impact of efforts of governments, businesses and
individuals to mitigate the effects of such pandemic) on the
Company, its customers, its carrier and integration partners and
the global economy, which makes it particularly difficult to
predict the nature and extent of impacts on demand for our products
and services, making our business outlook subject to considerable
uncertainty, (iii) the Company's ability to successfully integrate
and realize the benefits of its past or future strategic
acquisitions or investments, (iv) the Company’s ability to
diversify its relationships with carriers, (v) the impact of
foreign exchange fluctuations and geopolitical risks, and (vi)
other important factors that are detailed in filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made from time to time by
Stamps.com, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2019, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q
(particularly the “Risk Factors” sections of those reports), and
Current Reports on Form 8-K. Matters described in forward-looking
