Revenue of $383.0 million an increase of 7% over Q3 2017 on a pro forma basis; Net Loss of $28.9 million; EBITDA of $43.7 million; Expect 2018 revenue to be between $1.58 billion to $1.59 billion


Exela Technologies, Inc. (“Exela” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: XELA), a leader in location agnostic Business Process Automation (“BPA”), announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018. 

Exela reported strong financial growth with third quarter revenue of $383 million, an increase of 7% on a pro forma basis, and Adjusted EBITDA of $69 million, an increase of 24% on a year-over-year pro forma basis for 2017. Exela has invested approximately $60 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to further accelerate growth and integration, capitalize on our leading position in the marketplace and strengthen our differentiated offerings.

“Our transformative business process automation solutions are resonating well with customers. Exela’s differentiated location agnostic high automation services, Enterprise SaaS offerings and our BPA suite, Digital NowSM are beginning to show results with substantial growth in pipeline. Recently, a top 10 bank and financial services company that we have worked with for over a decade expanded their relationship with Exela, signing a contract estimated to be $100 million of revenue over the next three years.” said Ronald Cogburn, Chief Executive Officer of Exela.

James Reynolds, Chief Financial Officer of Exela, said “We expect our full year 2018 revenue to be between $1.58 billion to $1.59 billion with growth of 8.5 to 9% year-over-year. The increasing market receptiveness to Digital NowSM has exceeded our expectations, and therefore we have accelerated our investments for future profitable growth. This key strategic initiative, when coupled with lower project revenue in our LLPS segment and the exit from a low margin contract, will have some short-term impact on our Adjusted EBITDA.. Accordingly, we are now forecasting Adjusted EBITDA for the year to be between $280 million to $290 million, representing year-over-year growth of 14 to 18%”.

Financial information contained in this press release, unless otherwise stated, is presented pro forma for the business combination of Quinpario Acquisition Corp. 2 (now Exela), SourceHOV Holdings, Inc. (“SourceHOV”) and Novitex Holdings, Inc. (“Novitex”), which closed on July 12, 2017 (the “Business Combination”). The primary pro forma adjustment is to include the results of Novitex for the period January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017. For more information, please refer to the reconciliation of reported to pro forma financial results contained in the Schedules to this press release.

Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2018 Financial Highlights(Note: all third quarter 2017 numbers, unless otherwise stated, are presented on a pro forma basis.)

  • Revenue: Revenue of $383.0 million, an increase of 7.0% from $358.2 million in the third quarter of 2017 on a pro forma basis. Please refer to the pro forma revenue reconciliation contained in this press release for the third quarter of 2017. Revenue for our Information and Transaction Processing Solutions (“ITPS”) segment was $307.3 million, an increase of 9.8% year-over-year, driven primarily by revenue from the Digital NowSM model, growth investments and acquisitions offset by a decline in business with lower automation. Healthcare Solutions (“HS”) revenue was $56.8 million, an increase of 1% year-over-year due to its ramp up of new business and is poised to grow in future periods. Legal and Loss Prevention Services (“LLPS”) revenue was $18.9 million. Results in LLPS are event driven and were negatively impacted by projects that generated lower revenue.  
  • Low customer concentration with top 150 customers comprising 68% of revenue. 
  • 10 customers generating over $25 million in annual revenue, an increase from 6 customers at the beginning of 2018.  
  • 249 customers with over $1 million in annual revenue, an increase from 200 in December 2017. 
  • 8%(3) increase in revenue per FTE to $72 thousand, from $66 thousand per FTE in December 2017. 
  • $60 million invested in the business year-to-date to drive growth and integration. 
  • Net Loss: Net Loss for the third quarter of 2018 totaled $28.9 million, an improvement of $101.6 million when compared to a pro forma net loss of $130.5 million in the third quarter of 2017. The improvement in third quarter 2018 net loss was driven by $81.9 million higher operating income that was offset by higher income tax expense of $36.3 million, for a net increase of $45.6 million. The third quarter of 2017 also included $53 million in charges for extinguishment of debt. 
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2018 was $68.9 million a margin of 18% and increased 23.6% when compared to pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of $55.5 million and a margin of 16% in the third quarter of 2017. The increase in third quarter 2018 Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by revenue growth, the Company’s cost savings initiatives, and partially offset by investments the Company made for growth.  
  • Capital Expenditures: Capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2018 was 1.7% of revenue compared to 2.2% on a year over year basis.  
  • Common Stock: As of September 30, 2018, total shares outstanding were 158,278,484 which includes 1,043,497 of treasury stock and 5,586,344 shares for outstanding preferred shares on an as-converted basis.  
  • Share buyback: During the third quarter of 2018, the Company repurchased 225,504 shares. The cumulative shares repurchased under the Company’s share buyback program totaled 1,043,497 in the aggregate since the inception of the program.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

  • At September 30, 2018, Exela’s total liquidity was $124 million, measured as $45(4) million of cash excluding restricted cash, and an undrawn revolving credit facility of $100 million with $20.6 million reserved for letters of credit.  Total net debt was $1.383 billion.

Updated 2018 guidance

  • Revenue range $1.58 billion to $1.59 billion, approximately 8.5% growth y-o-y.
  • Adjusted EBITDA range $280 million to $290 million, over 14% growth y-o-y.

Note: Guidance is based on constant-currency.

Note on Outlook: The Company has not forecasted net income/(loss) on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect GAAP net income/(loss). Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict net income/(loss) as the difference between the two measures is variable.

The above guidance is based on third quarter 2018 results.

Please refer to attached schedules for reconciliations. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this document may not add up precisely to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely reflect absolute figures.

(3) – Presented on a pro forma basis with acquisitions for the TTM period.(4) – Calculated as cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents totaling $49.6 million, less $4.6 million of restricted cash that is subject to legal restrictions as of September 30, 2018.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This press release includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Exela believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity and allows investors to better understand the trends in our business and to better understand and compare our results. Exela’s board of directors and management use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess Exela’s financial performance, because it allows them to compare Exela’s operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of Exela’s capital structure (such as varying levels of debt and interest expense, as well as transaction costs resulting from the Business Combination and other such capital markets based activities. Adjusted EBITDA also seeks to remove the effects of integration and related costs to achieve the savings, any expected reduction in operating expenses due to the Business Combination, asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and other similar non-routine items outside the control of our management team.  Exela does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to liquidity or financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Exela’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures and therefore the basis of presentation for these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not required to be uniformly applied, are not audited and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Net loss is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to the non-GAAP measures presented here. For reconciliation of the comparable GAAP measures to these non-GAAP financial measures, see the schedules to this release. Optimization and restructuring expenses and merger adjustments are primarily related to the implementation of strategic actions and initiatives related to the Business Combination. All of these costs are variable and dependent upon the nature of the actions being implemented and can vary significantly driven by business needs. Accordingly, due to that significant variability, we exclude these charges since we do not believe they truly reflect our past, current or future operating performance.
