HRCI Assumes ISO International Secretariat Role for Technical Committee 260 on Human Resource Management

ALEXANDRIA, Va., May 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HRCI®, the premier HR credentialing and learning organization, is honored to announce that the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has appointed HRCI as the International Secretariat for the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Technical Committee (TC) 260 on Human Resource Management. ANSI is the U.S. member body to the ISO.

ISO TC 260, formed in 2011, is responsible for the development of a series of standards for human resource management processes and practices. There are 19 standards and technical specifications published, with 13 more under development.

The forthcoming ISO 301415 standard will also be an important standard for organizations, helping them create a culture of Diversity and Inclusion.

HRCI looks forward to providing effective leadership and continuing the development of additional standards to guide and optimize organizational performance, value creation, sustainable development and workforce productivity/satisfaction/engagement.

“In keeping with HRCI’s role as the global leader in certification programs, we are excited to be selected as the ISO Technical Committee on Human Resource Management. Leading this initiative to develop standards and practices for global human resources management is a natural expansion of HRCI’s responsibilities to the HR community,” said Dr. Amy Dufrane, SPHR, CAE, HRCI Chief Executive Officer.

“We are proud that HRCI is at the helm of standardization efforts that focus on human resources, which is often a vital factor in an organization’s success,” said S. Joe Bhatia, ANSI president and CEO. “We are excited to see additional progress unfold that will protect and support the interests and vitality of companies, and their employees, on a global scale.”

First-Quarter 2021 Revenue Performance
Total reported revenues were $2.027 billion for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $2.012 billion in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $15 million. Revenue was negatively impacted by approximately $100 million in the first quarter of 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bausch + Lomb Segment5
Bausch + Lomb segment revenues were $881 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $875 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $6 million, or 1%. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $26 million and the impact of divestitures and discontinuations of $2 million, the Bausch + Lomb segment decreased organically1,4 by approximately 2% compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bausch Pharma7,8
Bausch Pharma revenues (non-GAAP)8 were $1.146 billion for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $1.137 billion for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $9 million, or 1%. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $7 million and the impact of divestitures and discontinuations of $8 million, revenue increased organically1,4 by 1%.

  • Salix Segment
    Salix segment reported and organic1,4 revenues were $472 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $477 million for the first quarter of 2020, a decrease of $5 million, or 1%. The decline was primarily driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including decreased sales of XIFAXAN® (rifaximin), which declined by 2% compared to the first quarter of 2020.

  • International Rx Segment5
    International Rx segment revenues were $306 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $291 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $15 million, or 5%. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $4 million and the impact of divestitures and discontinuations of $1 million, the International Rx segment increased organically1,4 by approximately 4% compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to increased revenues in Latin America.

  • Ortho Dermatologics Segment5
    Ortho Dermatologics segment revenues were $141 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $131 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $10 million, or 8%. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $3 million, the Ortho Dermatologics segment grew organically1,4 by approximately 5% compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily driven by sales of the Thermage® franchise, which grew by 39% compared to the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by a decrease in net realized pricing of our medical dermatology products and by the loss of exclusivity of products in the segment, which negatively impacted revenues by approximately $6 million.

  • Diversified Products Segment5
    Diversified Products segment revenues were $227 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $238 million for the first quarter of 2020, a decrease of $11 million, or 5%. Excluding the impact of divestitures and discontinuations of $7 million, the Diversified Products segment declined organically1,4 by 2% compared to the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to the previously reported loss of exclusivity for a basket of products.

Operating Results
Operating loss was $221 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to operating income of $248 million for the first quarter of 2020, an unfavorable change of $469 million. The change was primarily driven by a goodwill impairment charge of $469 million in our Ortho Dermatologics business and an impairment of $71 million related to the intangible assets of a certain product line in the Ortho Dermatologics business partially offset by profit protection measures taken to manage and reduce our operating expenses and preserve cash during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net Loss
Net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was $610 million, as compared to $152 million for the same period in 2020, an unfavorable change of $458 million. The change was primarily due to the unfavorable change in our operating results.

Adjusted net income (non-GAAP)1 for the first quarter of 2021 was $370 million, as compared to $316 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $54 million.

Cash Generated from Operations
The Company generated $443 million of cash from operations (GAAP basis) in the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $261 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $182 million, or 70%. The increase in cash from operations was primarily attributed to the timing of payments in the ordinary course of business.

EPS
GAAP Earnings Per Share (EPS) Diluted for the first quarter of 2021 was ($1.71), as compared to ($0.43) for the first quarter of 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)1
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)1 was $852 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $813 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of $39 million. The increase was primarily due to profit protection measures taken to manage and reduce our operating expenses and preserve cash during the COVID-19 pandemic.

2021 Financial Outlook
Bausch Health reiterated guidance for the full year of 2021 as follows:

  • Full
    -year revenue range of $8.60$8.80 billion
  • Full-year Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) range of $3.40$3.55 billion

Other than with respect to GAAP Revenues, the Company only provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. In periods where significant acquisitions or divestitures are not expected, the Company believes it might have a basis for forecasting the GAAP equivalent for certain costs, such as amortization, which would otherwise be treated as non-GAAP to calculate projected GAAP net income (loss). However, because other deductions (such as restructuring, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt and litigation and other matters) used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-looking Statements section of this news release.

Additional Highlights

  • Bausch Health’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $1.893 billion9,10 at March 31, 2021
  • The Company’s availability under its 2023 Revolving Credit Facility was $1.124 billion at March 31, 2021
  • Basic weighted average shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2021 were 356.8 million shares. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2021 were 363.5 million shares11

Forward-looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking information and statements, within the meaning of applicable securities laws (collectively, “forward-looking statements”), including, but not limited to, Bausch Health’s future prospects and performance, including the Company’s 2021 full-year guidance, the Company’s plan to separate its eye health business from the remainder of Bausch Health and the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company and the Company’s recovery therefrom. Forward-looking statements may generally be identified by the use of the words “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “believes,” “estimates,” “potential,” “target,” or “continue” and variations or similar expressions, and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results may, could, should or will be achieved, received or taken, or will occur or result, and similar such expressions also identify forward-looking information. These forward-looking statements, including the Company’s full-year guidance, are based upon the current expectations and beliefs of management and are provided for the purpose of providing additional information about such expectations and beliefs, and readers are cautioned that these statements may not be appropriate for other purposes. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in the Company’s most recent annual and quarterly reports and detailed from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Canadian Securities Administrators, which risks and uncertainties are incorporated herein by reference. They also include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the Company’s proposed plan to separate its eye health business from the remainder of Bausch Health, including the expected benefits and costs of the separation transaction, the expected timing of completion of the separation transaction and its terms, the Company’s ability to complete the separation transaction considering the various conditions to the completion of the separation transaction (some of which are outside the Company’s control, including conditions related to regulatory matters and a possible shareholder vote, if applicable), that market or other conditions are no longer favorable to completing the transaction, that any shareholder, stock exchange, regulatory or other approval (if required) is not obtained on the terms or timelines anticipated or at all, business disruption during the pendency of or following the separation transaction, diversion of management time on separation transaction-related issues, retention of existing management team members, the reaction of customers and other parties to the separation transaction, the qualification of the separation transaction as a tax-free transaction for Canadian and/or U.S. federal income tax purposes (including whether or not an advance ruling from either or both of the Canada Revenue Agency and the Internal Revenue Service will be sought or obtained), potential dis-synergy costs between the separated entity and the remainder of Bausch Health, the impact of the separation transaction on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business counterparties, general economic conditions, conditions in the markets Bausch Health is engaged in, behavior of customers, suppliers and competitors, technological developments and legal and regulatory rules affecting Bausch Health’s business. In particular, the Company can offer no assurance that any separation transaction will occur at all, or that any separation transaction will occur on the terms and timelines anticipated by the Company. They also include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties caused by or relating to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the fear of that pandemic, the availability and effectiveness of vaccines for COVID-19, and the potential effects of that pandemic, the severity, duration and future impact of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and which may have a material adverse impact on the Company, including but not limited to its supply chain, third-party suppliers, project development timelines, employee base, liquidity, stock price, financial condition and costs (which may increase) and revenue and margins (both of which may decrease). In addition, certain material factors and assumptions have been applied in making these forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, assumptions regarding our 2021 full-year guidance with respect to expectations regarding base performance and management’s belief regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated responses on such base performance and the operations and financial results of the Company generally, expected currency impact, the expected timing and impact of loss of exclusivity for certain of our products, expectations regarding gross margin, adjusted SG&A expense (non-GAAP) and the Company’s ability to continue to manage such expense in the manner anticipated and the anticipated timing and extent of the Company’s R&D expense; and the assumption that the risks and uncertainties outlined above will not cause actual results or events to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. Management has also made certain assumptions in assessing the anticipated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company and its results of operations and financial conditions, including: that there will be no material restrictions on access to health care products and services resulting from a possible resurgence of the virus and variant strains thereof on a global basis in 2021; there will be increased availability and use of effective vaccines; that the strict social restrictions in the first half of 2020 will not be materially re-enacted in the event of a material resurgence of the virus and variant strains thereof; that there will be an ongoing, gradual global recovery as the macroeconomic and health care impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic run their course; that the largest impact to the Company’s businesses were seen in the second quarter of 2020; that our revenues will likely return to pre-pandemic levels during 2021, but that rates of recovery will vary by geography and business unit, with some regions and business units expected to lag in recovery possibly beyond 2021; and no major interruptions in the Company’s supply chain and distribution channels. If any of these assumptions regarding the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are incorrect, our actual results could differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements.

Additional information regarding certain of these material factors and assumptions may also be found in the Company’s filings described above. The Company believes that the material factors and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable in the circumstances, but readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. Bausch Health undertakes no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law.

Non-GAAP Information
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP), (ii) organic growth/change, (iii) constant currency and (iv) Bausch Pharma revenues. As discussed below, we also provide Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP) to provide supplemental information to readers. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as key metrics in the evaluation of the Company’s performance and the consolidated financial results and, in part, in the determination of cash bonuses for its executive officers. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in their assessment of our operating performance and the valuation of the Company. In addition, these non-GAAP measures address questions the Company routinely receives from analysts and investors, and in order to assure that all investors have access to similar data, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all investors.

However, these measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP nor do they have any standardized meaning under GAAP. In addition, other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Accordingly, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to such similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such non-GAAP measures, but instead to consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The reconciliations of these historic non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in the tables below. However, as indicated above, for guidance purposes, the Company does not provide reconciliations of projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations.


Specific Non-GAAP Measures


Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is GAAP net loss attributable to Bausch Health Companies Inc. (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for interest expense, net, (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other items described below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP), along with the GAAP measures used by management, most appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally and sets operational goals and incentives. In particular, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) focuses management on the Company’s underlying operational results and business performance. As a result, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) both to assess the actual financial performance of the Company and to forecast future results as part of its guidance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is a useful measure to evaluate current performance. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors. In addition, cash bonuses for the Company’s executive officers and other key employees are based, in part, on the achievement of certain Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) targets.

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is net loss attributable to Bausch Health Companies Inc. (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for interest expense, net, (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and the following items:

  • Asset impairments, including loss on assets held for sale: The Company has excluded the impact of impairments of finite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets, as well as impairments of assets held for sale, as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions and divestitures. The Company believes that the adjustments of these items correlate with the sustainability of the Company’s operating performance. Although the Company excludes impairments of intangible assets from measuring the performance of the Company and the business, the Company believes that it is important for investors to understand that intangible assets contribute to revenue generation.
  • Goodwill impairments: The Company excludes the impact of goodwill impairments. When the Company has made acquisitions where the consideration paid was in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired, the remaining purchase price is recorded as goodwill. For assets that we developed ourselves, no goodwill is recorded. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment. The amount of goodwill impairment is measured as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its fair value. Management excludes these charges in measuring the performance of the Company and the business.
  • Restructuring and integration costs: The Company has incurred restructuring costs as it implemented certain strategies, which involved, among other things, improvements to its infrastructure and operations, internal reorganizations and impacts from the divestiture of assets and businesses. With regard to infrastructure and operational improvements which the Company has taken to improve efficiencies in the businesses and facilities, these tend to be costs intended to right size the business or organization that fluctuate significantly between periods in amount, size and timing, depending on the improvement project, reorganization or transaction. The Company believes that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company’s operating performance, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors.
  • Acquisition-related costs and adjustments excluding amortization of intangible assets: The Company has excluded the impact of acquisition-related contingent consideration non-cash adjustments due to the inherent uncertainty and volatility associated with such amounts based on changes in assumptions with respect to fair value estimates, and the amount and frequency of such adjustments is not consistent and is significantly impacted by the timing and size of the Company’s acquisitions, as well as the nature of the agreed-upon consideration. In addition, the Company excludes the impact of acquisition-related costs and fair value inventory step-up resulting from acquisitions as the amounts and frequency of such costs and adjustments are not consistent and are impacted by the timing and size of its acquisitions. There were no acquisition-related costs or fair value inventory step-up for the periods presented.
  • Loss on extinguishment of debt: The Company has excluded loss on extinguishment of debt as this represents a cost of refinancing our existing debt and is not a reflection of our operations for the period. Further, the amount and frequency of such charges are not consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of debt financing transactions and other factors in the debt market out of management’s control.
  • Share-based compensation: The Company has excluded costs relating to share-based compensation. The Company believes that the exclusion of share-based compensation expense assists investors in the comparisons of operating results to peer companies. Share-based compensation expense can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted.
  • Separation costs and separation-related costs: The Company has excluded certain costs incurred in connection with activities taken to: (i) separate the eye-health business from the remainder of the Company and (ii) register the eye-health business as an independent publicly traded entity. Separation costs are incremental costs directly related to effectuating the separation of the eye-health business and include, but are not limited to, legal, audit and advisory fees, employee hiring, relocation and travel costs and costs associated with establishing a new board of directors and audit committee. Separation-related costs are incremental costs indirectly related to the separation of the eye-health business and include, but are not limited to, IT infrastructure and software licensing costs, rebranding costs and costs associated with facility relocation and/or modification. As these costs arise from events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations, the Company believes that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company’s operating performance, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors.
  • Other Non-GAAP adjustments: The Company has excluded certain other amounts, including legal and other professional fees incurred in connection with legal and governmental proceedings, investigations and information requests regarding certain of our legacy distribution, marketing, pricing, disclosure and accounting practices, litigation and other matters, and net gain on sale of assets. Given the unique nature of the matters relating to these costs, the Company believes these items are not normal operating expenses. For example, legal settlements and judgments vary significantly, in their nature, size and frequency, and, due to this volatility, the Company believes the costs associated with legal settlements and judgments are not normal operating expenses. In addition, as opposed to more ordinary course matters, the Company considers that each of the recent proceedings, investigations and information requests, given their nature and frequency, are outside of the ordinary course and relate to unique circumstances. The Company has also excluded expenses associated with in-process research and development, as these amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing, size and nature of acquisitions. Furthermore, as these amounts are associated with research and development acquired, the Company does not believe that they are a representation of the Company’s research and development efforts during any given period. The Company has also excluded IT infrastructure investment, that are the result of other, non-comparable events to measure operating performance. These events arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. The Company believes that the exclusion of such out-of-the-ordinary-course amounts provides supplemental information to assist in the comparison of the financial results of the Company from period to period and, therefore, provides useful supplemental information to investors. However, investors should understand that many of these costs could recur and that companies in our industry often face litigation.

Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP)
Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) is net loss attributable to Bausch Health Companies Inc. (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for restructuring and integration costs, acquired in-process research and development costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, asset impairments (including loss on assets held for sale), acquisition-related adjustments, excluding amortization, separation costs and separation-related costs and other non-GAAP charges as these adjustments are described above, and amortization of intangible assets as described below:

  • Amortization of intangible assets: The Company has excluded the impact of amortization of intangible assets, as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. The Company believes that the adjustments of these items correlate with the sustainability of the Company’s operating performance. Although the Company excludes amortization of intangible assets from its non-GAAP expenses, the Company believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets.

Historically, management has used Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating current performance. This non-GAAP measure excludes the impact of certain items (as described above) that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. By disclosing this non-GAAP measure, it is management’s intention to provide investors with a meaningful, supplemental comparison of the Company’s operating results and trends for the periods presented. It is management’s belief that this measure is also useful to investors as such measure allowed investors to evaluate the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate past performance and prospects for future performance. Accordingly, it is the Company’s belief that Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) is useful to investors in their assessment of the Company’s operating performance and the valuation of the Company. It is also noted that, in recent periods, our GAAP net income (loss) was significantly lower than our Adjusted net income (non-GAAP). Commencing in 2017, management of the Company identified and began using certain new primary financial performance measures to assess the Company’s financial performance. However, management still believes that Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) may be useful to investors in their assessment of the Company and its performance.

Organic Growth/Change
Organic growth/change, a non-GAAP metric, is defined as a change on a period-over-period basis in revenues on a constant currency basis (if applicable) excluding the impact of recent acquisitions, divestitures and discontinuations (if applicable). Organic growth/change is change in GAAP Revenue (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for certain items, as further described below, of businesses that have been owned for one or more years. Organic revenue growth/change is impacted by changes in product volumes and price. The price component is made up of two key drivers: (i) changes in product gross selling price and (ii) changes in sales deductions. The Company uses organic growth/change to assess performance of its business units and operating and reportable segments, and the Company in total, without the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations and recent acquisitions, divestitures and product discontinuations. The Company believes that such measures are useful to investors as they provide a supplemental period-to-period comparison.

Organic growth/change reflects adjustments for: (i) the impact of period-over-period changes in foreign currency exchange rates on revenues and (ii) the revenues associated with acquisitions, divestitures and discontinuations of businesses divested and/or discontinued. These adjustments are determined as follows:

  • Foreign currency exchange rates: Although changes in foreign currency exchange rates are part of our business, they are not within management’s control. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates, however, can mask positive or negative trends in the business. The impact for changes in foreign currency exchange rates is determined as the difference in the current period reported revenues at their current period currency exchange rates and the current period reported revenues revalued using the monthly average currency exchange rates during the comparable prior period.
  • Acquisitions, divestitures and discontinuations: In order to present period-over-period organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth/change on a comparable basis, revenues associated with acquisitions, divestitures and discontinuations are adjusted to include only revenues from those businesses and assets owned during both periods. Accordingly, organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth/change excludes from the current period, revenues attributable to each acquisition for twelve months subsequent to the day of acquisition, as there are no revenues from those businesses and assets included in the comparable prior period. Organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth/change excludes from the prior period, all revenues attributable to each divestiture and discontinuance during the twelve months prior to the day of divestiture or discontinuance, as there are no revenues from those businesses and assets included in the comparable current period.

Constant Currency
Changes in the relative values of non-U.S. currencies to the U.S. dollar may affect the Company’s financial results and financial position. To assist investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, we have adjusted for foreign currency effects. Constant currency impact is determined by comparing 2021 reported amounts adjusted to exclude currency impact, calculated using 2020 monthly average exchange rates, to the actual 2020 reported amounts.

Please also see the reconciliation tables below for further information as to how these non-GAAP measures are calculated for the periods presented.

Bausch Pharma Revenues
Bausch Pharma revenues, a non-GAAP metric, are determined by subtracting Bausch + Lomb segment revenues for the applicable period from total Bausch Health Company revenues for the applicable period.

 


1

Please see the tables at the end of this news release for a reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measure.


2

Bausch Health acquired an exclusive license from Novaliq GmbH for the commercialization and development of NOV03 in the United States and Canada.


3

The Company Board has proposed that these individuals be appointed as CEO and CFO of Bausch + Lomb at the time of the separation. Such individuals will continue to serve in their current roles at the Company prior to the separation.


4

Organic growth/change, a non-GAAP metric, is defined as a change on a period-over-period basis in revenues on a constant currency basis (if applicable) excluding the impact of recent acquisitions, divestitures and discontinuations.


5

In connection with the planned separation of the Company’s eye health business into an independent publicly traded entity from the remainder of Bausch Health Companies Inc., the Company has realigned and has begun managing its operations in a manner consistent with the organizational structure of the two separate entities as proposed by the separation. Commencing in 2021, the Company realigned its segment reporting structure and now operates in five reportable segments.


6

To assist investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, we have adjusted for changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Change at constant currency, a non-GAAP metric, is determined by comparing 2021 reported amounts adjusted to exclude currency impact, calculated using 2020 monthly average exchange rates, to the actual 2020 reported amounts. 


7

The remainder of Bausch Health is referred to as “Bausch Pharma” and will assume a new name upon the separation of the Company’s eye health business, Bausch + Lomb.


8

Bausch Pharma revenues, a non-GAAP metric, are determined by subtracting Bausch + Lomb segment revenues for the applicable period from total Bausch Health Company revenues for the applicable period.


9

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at March 31, 2021 includes remaining net proceeds from the December 2019 bond issuance intended to be used to finance the $1.210 billion settlement of the U.S. Securities litigation due in 2021.


10

As of March 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents excludes $54 million of cash and cash equivalents classified as held for sale associated with the Company’s agreement to sell all of its equity interests in Amoun Pharmaceutical Company S.A. E.


11

Diluted weighted average shares includes the dilutive impact of options and restricted stock units, which are approximately 6,657,000 common shares for the 3 months ended March 31, 2021, and which are excluded when calculating GAAP diluted loss per share because the effect of including the impact would be anti-dilutive.

The impact for changes in foreign currency exchange rates is determined as the difference in the current period reported revenues at their current period currency exchange rates and the current period reported revenues revalued using the monthly average currency exchange rates during the comparable prior period.

(b)

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information about the Company’s use of such non-GAAP financial measures, refer to the body of the news release to which these tables are attached. Organic revenue (non-GAAP) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is calculated as revenue as reported adjusted for the impact for changes in exchange rates (previously defined in this news release). Organic revenue (non-GAAP) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is calculated as revenue as reported less revenues attributable to divestitures and discontinuances during the twelve months prior to the day of divestiture or discontinuance, as there are no revenues from those businesses and assets included in the comparable current period. Organic revenue (non-GAAP) is also adjusted for acquisitions, however, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no acquisitions.

(c)

In connection with the planned separation of the Company’s eye-health business into an independently traded entity from the remainder of Bausch Health Companies Inc, the Company has realigned and has begun managing its operations in a manner consistent with the organizational structure of the two separate entities as proposed by the separation. Commencing in 2021, the Company realigned its segment reporting structure and now operates in five reportable segments. Also, certain products historically included in the reported results of the Generics business unit in the Diversified Products segment are included in the reported results of the Global Ophtho Rx business unit in the Bausch + Lomb segment and certain products historically included in the reported results of the Global Consumer Products business unit in the Bausch + Lomb segment are included in the reported results of the Neurology and Other business unit in the Diversified products segment. All segment and business unit references in this news release are to this realigned segment and business unit reporting structure and prior period presentations of results have been conformed to the current segment and business unit reporting structure to allow investors to evaluate results between periods on a constant basis. For more information about the current segment reporting structure, please see “New Segment Structure” slide in the appendix to our First-Quarter 2021 Financial Results presentation.

(d)

Bausch Pharma revenues, a non-GAAP metric, are determined by subtracting Bausch + Lomb segment revenues for the applicable period from total Bausch Health revenues for the applicable period.

SOMERSET, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Catalent, Inc. (NYSE: CTLT), the leading global provider of advanced delivery technologies, development, and manufacturing solutions for drugs, biologics, cell and gene therapies, and consumer health products, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2021, which ended March 31, 2021.

“I am proud of Catalent’s robust third-quarter results and excited by the strong foundation we’ve built for continued growth, through the dedication and ingenuity of our talented workforce,” said John Chiminski, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Catalent, Inc. “Throughout the pandemic, we’ve worked around-the-clock to deliver for patients, while also investing in capabilities and capacity to ensure Catalent can continue to meet global demand for COVID-19 vaccines and other important customer programs for years to come.”

Fiscal Year 2021 Outlook

Catalent is raising its previously issued guidance to account for higher net underlying demand for COVID-19 vaccines and treatments.

The revised guidance assumes no major unforeseen change to either the current status of the COVID-19 pandemic generally or its effect on Catalent’s operations and business. The revised guidance does not assume the receipt of any vaccine or treatment order from any of our customers beyond what either has been received to date or is deemed required under executed take-or-pay arrangements. The revised guidance ranges are wider than the ranges we have forecasted in the previous few fiscal years due to the continuing uncertainty in both revenues and costs across our businesses engendered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The revised guidance projects:

  • Net revenue for fiscal 2021 in the range of $3.875 billion to $3.975 billion, compared to the previous range of $3.80 billion to $3.95 billion;
  • Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2021 in the range of $975 million to $1.015 billion, compared to the previous range of $950 million to $1.000 billion;
  • Adjusted Net Income for fiscal 2021 in the range of $500 million to $540 million, compared to the previous range of $475 million to $525 million; and
  • A fully diluted share count in the range of 180 million to 182 million shares on a weighted-average basis, which includes the outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock as-if converted.

Board Member Appointment

On April 28, 2021, Michael J. Barber was elected as the newest member of the Company’s Board of Directors, effective immediately. The board size increased to 12 members to accommodate his appointment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Use of EBITDA from operations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Segment EBITDA

Management measures operating performance based on consolidated earnings from operations before interest expense, expense (benefit) for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests (“EBITDA from operations”). EBITDA from operations is not defined under U.S. GAAP, is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.

Catalent believes that the presentation of EBITDA from operations enhances an investor’s understanding of its financial performance. Catalent believes this measure is a useful financial metric to assess its operating performance across periods by excluding certain items that it believes are not representative of its core business and uses this measure for business planning purposes.

In addition, given the significant investments that Catalent has made in the past in property, plant and equipment, depreciation and amortization expenses represent a meaningful portion of its cost structure. Catalent believes that EBITDA from operations will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of its ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt and to undertake capital expenditures because it eliminates depreciation and amortization expense. Catalent presents EBITDA from operations in order to provide supplemental information that it considers relevant for the readers of its consolidated financial statements, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede U.S. GAAP measures. Catalent’s definition of EBITDA from operations may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Catalent evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment earnings before non-controlling interest, other (income) expense, impairments, restructuring costs, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization (“segment EBITDA”). Moreover, under Catalent’s credit agreement, its ability to engage in certain activities, such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments and paying certain dividends, is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA, which is not defined under U.S. GAAP, is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. Adjusted EBITDA is the covenant compliance measure used in the credit agreement governing debt incurrence and restricted payments. Because not all companies use identical calculations, Catalent’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Management also measures operating performance based on Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is not defined under U.S. GAAP, is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is subject to important limitations. Catalent believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share enhances an investor’s understanding of its financial performance. Catalent believes these measures are a useful financial metric to assess its operating performance across periods by excluding certain items that it believes are not representative of its core business and Catalent uses these measures for business planning purposes. Catalent defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net earnings (loss) adjusted for amortization attributable to purchase accounting and adjustments for other cash and non-cash items included in the table below, partially offset by its estimate of the tax effects of such cash and non-cash items. Catalent believes that Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share provides investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of its ability to generate cash from operations available to its stockholders. Catalent’s definition of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure to EBITDA from operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is net earnings (loss). Included in this release is a reconciliation of net earnings (loss) to EBITDA from operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income.

Catalent does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods, Catalent does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a U.S. GAAP analysis as that would require estimates for various cash and non-cash reconciling items that would be difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy. For example, equity compensation expense would be difficult to estimate because it depends on Catalent’s future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of its common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. It is equally difficult to anticipate the need for or magnitude of a presently unforeseen one-time restructuring expense or the values of end-of-period foreign currency exchange rates. As a result, Catalent does not believe that a U.S. GAAP reconciliation would provide meaningful supplemental information about its outlook.

Use of Constant Currency

As changes in exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, Catalent believes the presentation of results on a constant-currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand its operating results and evaluate its performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant-currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period over period. Catalent uses results on a constant-currency basis as one measure to evaluate its performance. Catalent calculates constant currency by calculating current-year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. Catalent generally refers to such amounts calculated on a constant-currency basis as excluding the impact of foreign exchange or being on a constant-currency basis. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Results on a constant-currency basis, as Catalent presents them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains both historical and forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact, are, or may be deemed to be, 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. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of statements that include phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “foresee,” “likely,” “may,” “will,” “would,” or other words or phrases with similar meanings. Similarly, statements that describe Catalent’s objectives, plans, or goals are, or may be, forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations of future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from Catalent’s expectations and projections. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, the following: the current or future effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Catalent’s and its clients’ businesses; participation in a highly competitive market and increased competition that may adversely affect Catalent’s business; demand for its offerings, which depends in part on its customers’ research and development and the clinical and market success of their products; product and other liability risks that could adversely affect Catalent’s results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows; failure to comply with existing and future regulatory requirements; failure to provide quality offerings to customers could have an adverse effect on Catalent’s business and subject it to regulatory actions and costly litigation; problems providing the highly exacting and complex services or support required; global economic, political and regulatory risks to Catalent’s operations; inability to enhance existing or introduce new technology or service offerings in a timely manner; inadequate patents, copyrights, trademarks and other forms of intellectual property protections; fluctuations in the costs, availability, and suitability of the components of the products Catalent manufactures, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients, purchased components and raw materials; changes in market access or healthcare reimbursement in the United States or internationally; fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against other currencies, including as a result of the U.K.’s exit from the European Union; adverse tax legislative or regulatory initiatives or challenges or adjustments to Catalent’s tax positions; loss of key personnel; risks generally associated with information systems; inability to complete any future acquisitions or other transactions that may complement or expand its business or divest of non-strategic businesses or assets and difficulties in successfully integrating acquired businesses and realizing anticipated benefits of such acquisitions; risks associated with timely and successfully completing, and correctly anticipating the future demand predicted for, capital expansion projects at existing facilities, offerings and customers’ products that may infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties; environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, which could increase costs and restrict operations; labor and employment laws and regulations or labor difficulties, which could increase costs or result in operational disruptions; additional cash contributions required to fund Catalent’s existing pension plans; substantial leverage that may limit its ability to raise additional capital to fund operations and react to changes in the economy or in the industry; and exposure to interest-rate risk to the extent of its variable-rate debt preventing it from meeting its obligations under its indebtedness. For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see the information under the caption “Risk Factors” in Catalent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, filed August 31, 2020. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this release or as of the date they are made, and Catalent does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement as a result of new information or future events or developments except to the extent required by law.

* Refer to Catalent’s description of non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted Net Income as referenced above.

(1) Represents the amortization attributable to purchase accounting for previously completed business combinations.

(2) Represents the gain on sale of subsidiary associated with the blow-fill-seal business divestiture.

(3) Represents unrealized (gains) losses related to the fair value of the derivative liability associated with the Series A convertible preferred stock.

(4) The tax effect of adjustments to Adjusted Net Income are computed by applying the statutory tax rate in the jurisdictions to the income or expense items that are adjusted in the period presented; if a valuation allowance exists, the rate applied is zero.

(5) Discrete period income tax expense (benefit) items are unusual or infrequently occurring items, primarily including: changes in judgment related to the realizability of deferred tax assets in future years, changes in measurement of a prior-year tax position, deferred tax impact of changes in tax law, and purchase accounting.

(6) Represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average sum of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, plus (b) the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued assuming exercise or vesting of all potentially dilutive instruments, plus (c) the number of shares of Common Stock equivalent to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding under the “if-converted” method. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the weighted average was 180.2 and 166.2, respectively.

Under Armour Reports First Quarter 2021 Results; Raises Full Year Outlook

PR Newswire

BALTIMORE, May 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Under Armour, Inc. (NYSE: UA, UAA) today announced unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021. The company reports its financial performance in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This press release refers to “currency neutral” and “adjusted” amounts, which are non-GAAP financial measures described below under the “Non-GAAP Financial Information” paragraph. References to adjusted financial measures exclude the impact of the company’s 2020 restructuring plan and related impairment charges, impairments associated with certain long-lived assets and goodwill and related tax effects, and with respect to certain measures, the non-cash amortization of debt discount on the company’s convertible debt, and related tax effects. The reconciliation of non-GAAP amounts to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated according to GAAP is presented in supplemental financial information furnished with this release. All per share amounts are reported on a diluted basis.

“Under Armour is off to an excellent start for the year. Our first-quarter results demonstrate that our improved operating model and investments we’re making to amplify our connection with consumers are enabling us to deliver against strong demand for our brand,” said Under Armour President and CEO Patrik Frisk. “Additionally, with a solid balance sheet and well-managed inventory, we’re confident in our ability to drive well through 2021 as we get back on offense and make measured progress to returning to sustainable, profitable growth over the long-term.”


First Quarter 2021 Review

  • Revenue was up 35 percent to $1.3 billion (up 32 percent currency neutral) compared to the prior year.
    • Wholesale revenue increased 35 percent to $800 million and direct-to-consumer revenue increased 54 percent to $437 million, driven by 69 percent growth in eCommerce.
    • North America revenue increased 32 percent to $806 million and international revenue increased 58 percent to $452 million (up 50 percent currency neutral). Within the international business, revenue increased 41 percent in EMEA (up 33 percent currency neutral), increased 120 percent in Asia-Pacific (up 107 percent currency neutral), and decreased 9 percent in Latin America (down 7 percent currency neutral).
    • Apparel revenue increased 35 percent to $810 million. Footwear revenue increased 47 percent to $309 million. Accessories revenue increased 73 percent to $117 million.
  • Gross margin increased 370 basis points to 50.0 percent compared to the prior year, driven primarily by benefits from pricing, supply chain initiatives, and channel mix.
  • Selling, general & administrative expenses decreased 7 percent to $515 million primarily due to lower legal and marketing costs than the prior year.
  • Restructuring and impairment charges were $7 million.
  • Operating income was $107 million. Adjusted operating income was $114 million.
  • Net income was $78 million. Adjusted net income was $75 million.
  • Diluted earnings per share was $0.17. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.16.
  • Inventory was down 9 percent to $852 million.
  • Cash and Cash Equivalents was $1.3 billion at the end of the quarter, and no borrowings were outstanding under the company’s $1.1 billion revolving credit facility.


Updated 2021 Outlook

Key points related to Under Armour’s full-year 2021 outlook include:

  • Revenue is now expected to be up at a high-teen percentage rate compared to the previous expectation of a high-single-digit percentage rate increase, reflecting a high-teen percentage growth rate in North America and low thirties percentage growth rate in the international business.
  • Gross margin is now expected to be up approximately 50 basis points compared to the previous expectation of ‘up slightly,’ versus the prior year adjusted gross margin of 48.6 percent with benefits from pricing and supply chain efficiency, being largely offset by the sale of MyFitnessPal, which carried a high gross margin rate.
  • Operating income is now expected to reach approximately $105 million to $115 million compared to the previous range of $5 million to $25 million. Excluding the impact of restructuring efforts, adjusted operating income is expected to reach $230 million to $240 million compared to the previous expectation of $130 million to $150 million.
  • Diluted loss per share is now expected to be about $0.02 to $0.04 compared to the previous expectation of a diluted loss per share of $0.18 to $0.20 and adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.28 to $0.30 compared to the previous expectation of adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.12 to $0.14.


2020 Restructuring Plan

In April 2020, Under Armour announced a restructuring plan designed to rebalance its cost base to improve profitability and cash flow. Of the estimated $550 million to $600 million restructuring plan range, the company has recognized $480 million of pre-tax charges, including $7 million in the first quarter of 2021. Of the $480 million recognized, there has been $126 million in cash-related charges and $354 million in non-cash-related charges. The company expects to realize approximately $35 million to $40 million in charges related to this plan in the second quarter.


COVID-19 Update

Under Armour remains focused on protecting teammate and consumer health and safety while working with its suppliers, partners, and customers to navigate potential disruptions. Given continued uncertainty related to COVID-19, there could be potential material impacts on its full-year business results in 2021.


Conference Call and Webcast

Under Armour will hold its first-quarter conference call and webcast today at approximately 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The call will be webcast live at https://about.underarmour.com/investor-relations/financials and will be archived and available for replay about three hours after the live event.


Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release refers to “currency neutral” and “adjusted” results as well as “adjusted” forward-looking estimates of the company’s fiscal 2021 outlook. Currency-neutral financial information is calculated to exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Management believes this information is helpful to investors to compare the company’s results of operations period-over-period. Adjusted financial measures exclude the impact of the company’s 2020 restructuring plan and related impairment charges, impairments associated with certain long-lived assets and goodwill, and related tax effects. Management believes this information is useful to investors because it enhances visibility into its actual underlying results, excluding these impacts. Adjusted interest expense, adjusted other expense, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted income (loss) per share exclude the non-cash amortization of debt discount on the company’s convertible senior notes. Management believes the non-cash portion of the interest expense, which represents the accretion of the bifurcated equity component of the convertible senior notes’ conversion option, is not core to the company’s operations given the intent and ability to settle in shares of the company’s Class C common stock. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation and should be contemplated in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company’s reported results prepared per GAAP. Additionally, the company’s non-GAAP financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

(1) Prior to Fiscal 2021, the Company’s Connected Fitness segment was discretely disclosed; however, effective January 1, 2021 Corporate Other now includes the remaining Connected Fitness business consisting of MapMyRun for Fiscal 2021 and the entire Connected Fitness, including MyFitnessPal for Fiscal 2020. All prior period balances were recast to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications did not affect total consolidated net revenues, consolidated income from operations, or consolidated net income. Corporate Other primarily includes foreign currency hedge gains and losses related to revenues generated by entities within the Company’s operating segments but managed through the Company’s central foreign exchange risk management program.


(2) Operating income (loss) percentage is calculated based on total segment net revenues. Additionally, the operating income (loss) percentage for Corporate Other is not presented as a meaningful metric (NM).

(1) Under the Company’s 2020 restructuring plan’s approved range of $550 million to $600 million in restructuring and impairment charges, the impact of total charges to be realized in fiscal 2021 assumes the high-end of an estimated $77 million to $127 million range.


In connection with the Company’s first-quarter conference call and webcast, the Company will discuss its projected adjusted diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and the full year ended December 31, 2021. As a result of restructuring expenses incurred in fiscal year 2021, in connection with the 2020 restructuring plan, the United States and certain other foreign jurisdictions are considered loss jurisdictions for fiscal year 2021. These jurisdictions are accounted for discretely and excluded from the annual effective tax rate computation for purposes of computing the interim tax provision and a separate annual effective rate is calculated for each of these jurisdictions and applied against their respective year-to-date ordinary income or loss each quarter. As a result, the income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021, is subject to significant variability based on the actual quarterly pre-tax results, and a meaningful estimated range of GAAP-based income tax expense cannot be provided. Given this variability, there is substantial uncertainty associated with accurately projecting the Company’s GAAP-based income tax expense and GAAP-based diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Alternatively, Adjusted income tax expense includes all global jurisdictions in the annual effective tax rate mitigating significant quarterly variability. Therefore, a reconciliation to the Company’s adjusted diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2021 has not been provided, as the Company believes the reconciliation is not meaningful.


The Company’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2021, is expected to be impacted by approximately $35 to $40 million of restructuring and impairment charges, and approximately $5 million of non-cash amortization of debt discount on its convertible debt, both of which are excluded for purposes of calculating adjusted net income.

AMETEK Announces First Quarter Results and Raises 2021 Guidance

PR Newswire

BERWYN, Pa., May 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — AMETEK, Inc. (NYSE: AME) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

AMETEK’s first quarter 2021 sales were $1.22 billion, a 1% increase over the first quarter of 2020, with organic sales growth of 1%. Operating income increased 6% to $293.3 million, and operating margins were up 110 basis points to 24.1%, both versus the prior year’s adjusted results.

On a GAAP basis, first quarter earnings per diluted share were $0.94. Adjusted earnings were $1.07 per diluted share, up 5% versus the prior year’s adjusted results. Adjusted earnings adds back non-cash, after-tax, acquisition-related intangible amortization of $0.13 per diluted share. A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to adjusted results is included in the financial tables accompanying this release and on the AMETEK website.

“AMETEK performed exceptionally well in the first quarter,” commented David A. Zapico, AMETEK Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We were pleased with the return to organic sales growth earlier than anticipated, while order momentum remains very strong with a record level of orders and 9% organic orders growth in the quarter. Additionally, our businesses delivered outstanding operating performance with robust margin expansion.”   

“We continue to generate strong cash flow with operating cash flow up 5% in the quarter and free cash flow conversion of 122% of net income. This excellent cash flow generation is being used to support an active acquisition environment. Thus far in 2021, we have deployed $1.85 billion on five strategic acquisitions. We remain well positioned with a pipeline of attractive acquisition opportunities and strong balance sheet capacity to support our continued growth,” noted Mr. Zapico.

Electronic Instruments Group (EIG)
First quarter EIG sales were $790.9 million, up 2% compared to the first quarter of 2020. EIG’s operating income in the quarter was up 7% to $206.9 million, and operating margins were up 110 basis points to 26.2%, versus the prior year’s adjusted results.

“EIG delivered strong results in the first quarter with solid sales growth and outstanding operating performance,” noted Mr. Zapico. “Sales were stronger than expected in the quarter as we continue to see improvements across our key end markets, in particular across our Process businesses.”

Electromechanical Group (EMG)
EMG sales in the first quarter were $424.8 million, down 1% compared to last year’s first quarter. Operating income for EMG was up 8% to a record $105.0 million, and operating margins were up 190 basis points to a record 24.7%, versus the prior year’s adjusted results.

“EMG also had an excellent first quarter with solid organic sales growth offset by the divestiture of Reading Alloys,” commented Mr. Zapico. “EMG’s automation businesses are benefitting from solid demand for their precision motion control solutions, while EMG’s operational initiatives delivered record operating profit and operating margins in the quarter.”

2021 Outlook
“The strength of the AMETEK Growth Model was reflected in our results this quarter and in our revised outlook for the balance of the year. Our differentiated businesses, diverse and balanced end market exposures, exceptional operating capability, robust cash flow generation and proven ability to deploy capital on value enhancing acquisitions, has positioned AMETEK extremely well for strong growth in 2021 and beyond,” continued Mr. Zapico.  

“Given our first quarter results and recent acquisition activity we are increasing our guidance for the year. For 2021, we now expect overall sales to be up high teens on a percentage basis compared to the prior year, with organic sales up high single digits. Adjusted earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $4.48 to $4.56, an increase of 13% to 15% over the comparable basis for 2020. This is an increase from our previous adjusted earnings guidance range of $4.18 to $4.30 per diluted share,” he added.

“Overall sales in the second quarter are expected to be up in the low 30% range versus the second quarter of 2020. We anticipate adjusted earnings per diluted share will be in the range of $1.08 to $1.10, up 29% to 31% versus last year’s second quarter. Our full year and second quarter guidance includes all five recently completed acquisitions,” concluded Mr. Zapico.

Conference Call
AMETEK will webcast its first quarter 2021 investor conference call on Tuesday, May 4, 2021, beginning at 8:30 AM ET. The live audio webcast will be available and later archived in the Investors section of www.ametek.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis with certain non–GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increased transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.  Reconciliation of non–GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying financial tables. These non–GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

 

The Company believes that these measures provide useful information to investors by reflecting additional ways of viewing AMETEK’s operations that, when reconciled to the comparable GAAP measure, helps our investors to better understand the long-term profitability trends of our business, and facilitates easier comparisons of our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers.

Xylem Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

Xylem Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

  • Revenue growth 12% on a reported basis, 8% organically
  • Double-digit orders growth across all business segments, reflecting strong commercial momentum and underlying demand in critical infrastructure
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 17.1%, up 480 basis points; net income as a percentage of revenue was 6.9%, up 350 basis points
  • Reported net income of $87 million or $0.48 per share; adjusted net income of $102 million or $0.56 per share
  • Raising full-year organic revenue guidance to a range of 5% to 7%, and adjusted earnings per share to a range of $2.50 to $2.70

RYE BROOK, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water technology company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported first quarter 2021 revenue of $1.26 billion. Revenues grew 12 percent on a reported basis, and 8 percent organically, reflecting demand growth across all segments.

First quarter adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margin grew 480 basis points to 17.1 percent. The margin expansion was driven by volume benefits from strong demand, productivity gains and cost discipline. Xylem generated net income of $87 million, or $0.48 per share, and adjusted net income of $102 million, or $0.56 per share, which excludes the impact of restructuring, realignment and special charges.

“Our Xylem team performed exceptionally well in the first quarter, despite ongoing pandemic challenges around the world. I’m so proud of how the team has served our customers and communities,” said Patrick Decker, Xylem’s president and CEO. “We came into the year with growing momentum, and are taking full advantage of resurgent demand alongside broader economic recovery, posting double-digit orders growth across all segments.”

“The positive market signals we are seeing, and our team’s proven ability to manage through a challenging supply chain environment, give us confidence about the remainder of this year and beyond. On that basis, we are raising our guidance for the full year, for both top-line growth and earnings.”

Updated Outlook

Xylem now expects full year organic revenue growth to be in the range of 5 to 7 percent, and 8 to 10 percent on a reported basis. This represents an increase from the Company’s previous full-year organic revenue guidance of 3 to 5 percent, and 6 to 8 percent on a reported basis. Full-year adjusted earnings per share is now expected to be in the range of $2.50 to $2.70, up from the previous range of $2.35 to $2.60. The increased guidance primarily reflects commercial momentum and broad demand recovery.

Further 2021 planning assumptions are included in Xylem’s first quarter 2021 earnings materials posted at www.xylem.com/investors. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort.

First Quarter Segment Results

Water Infrastructure

Xylem’s Water Infrastructure segment consists of its portfolio of businesses serving wastewater transport and treatment, clean water delivery, and dewatering.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $509 million, up 11 percent organically, and up 16 percent as reported, compared with first quarter 2020. Double-digit growth in both utilities and industrial end markets was driven by strong demand in wastewater applications and project deliveries in Europe, along with strength in Emerging Markets compared to a COVID-challenged environment in the first quarter of the prior year.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.3 percent, up 430 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $71 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $5 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $76 million. The segment reported operating margin was 13.9 percent, up 500 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 490 basis points to 14.9 percent. Strong productivity and volume leverage offset inflation.

Applied Water

Xylem’s Applied Water segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in industrial, commercial building, and residential applications.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $393 million, representing 13 percent organic growth year-over-year, and 16 percent growth on a reported basis. Double-digit growth from strong demand in industrial and residential end markets was supplemented by mid-single digit growth in the commercial end market.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.1 percent, up 250 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $66 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $1 million of restructuring and realignment costs and $1 million of special charges, was $68 million. The segment reported operating margin was 16.8 percent, up 290 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 280 basis points to 17.3 percent. Strong productivity, cost savings and volume leverage more than offset inflation.

Measurement & Control Solutions

Xylem’s Measurement & Control Solutions segment consists of its portfolio of businesses in smart metering, network technologies, advanced infrastructure analytics and analytic instrumentation.

  • First quarter 2021 revenue was $354 million, flat organically and up 2 percent on a reported basis, as modest growth in water applications from strong demand in the test business was offset by declines in energy applications from COVID-19 related delays on smart metrology deployments.
  • First quarter adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.5 percent, up 770 basis points from the prior year. Reported operating income for the segment was $9 million and adjusted operating income, which excludes $2 million of restructuring and realignment costs, was $11 million. The segment reported operating margin was 2.5 percent, up 600 basis points versus the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin rose 600 basis points to 3.1 percent. Productivity gains and the effect of lapping a one-time warranty charge in the same period of the prior year more than offset inflation and timing delays on smart metrology deployments.

Xylem Inc. Non-GAAP Measures
 
Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, gross margins, segment operating income and margins, orders growth, working capital and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or “adjusted”) measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following items to represent the non-GAAP measures we consider to be key performance indicators, as well as the related reconciling items to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
 
“Organic revenue” and “Organic orders” defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales or discontinuance of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency translation impacts is determined by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate.
 
“Constant currency” defined as financial results adjusted for foreign currency translation impacts by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.
 
“EBITDA” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted Segment EBITDA” reflects the adjustments to EBITDA and segment EBITDA, respectively, to exclude share-based compensation charges, restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses and special charges.
 
“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” and “Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin” defined as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
“Adjusted Operating Income”, “Adjusted Segment Operating Income”, “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted EPS” defined as operating income, segment operating income, net income and earnings per share, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses, special charges and tax-related special items, as applicable.
 
“Adjusted Operating Margin” and “Adjusted Segment Operating Margin” defined as adjusted operating income and adjusted segment operating income divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.
 
“Free Cash Flow” defined as net cash from operating activities, as reported in the Statement of Cash Flow, less capital expenditures, and “Free Cash Flow Conversion” defined as Free Cash Flows divided by net income, excluding the gain on sale of businesses, non-cash impairment charges and significant deferred tax items. Our definitions of “free cash flow” and “free cash flow conversion” do not consider certain non-discretionary cash payments, such as debt.
 
“Realignment costs” defined as costs not included in restructuring costs that are incurred as part of actions taken to reposition our business, including items such as professional fees, severance, relocation, travel, facility set-up and other costs.
 
“Special charges” defined as costs incurred by the Company, such as acquisition and integration related costs, non-cash impairment charges and both operating and non-operating adjustments for pension costs.
 
“Tax-related special items” defined as tax items, such as tax return versus tax provision adjustments, tax exam impacts, tax law change impacts, excess tax benefits/losses and other discrete tax adjustments.

MCLEAN, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Liberty IT Solutions, LLC, a leading information technology and services firm, for $725 million. The acquisition will broaden and deepen Booz Allen’s digital solutions capabilities, expand its talent base and service delivery models, and strengthen its ability to work with strategic industry partners to help clients adapt and transform.

Liberty is headquartered in Herndon, VA, with a national presence including Exton, PA and a dedicated Agile Center of Excellence in Melbourne, FL. The company is a leading digital partner driving transformation across the federal IT ecosystem and employs approximately 600 solution architects, engineers, and other technical staff.

“This acquisition supports our long-term strategy to drive continued growth by investing in innovative technologies and talent at scale,” said Horacio Rozanski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Booz Allen. “The addition of Liberty strengthens our unique market position as a leader in digital transformation, accelerates already robust growth in our health business and beyond, and delivers value for our people, our clients, and our shareholders.”

The combination of Booz Allen’s and Liberty’s people and capabilities will give clients access to a deeper range of advanced, scalable technology solutions and deep digital expertise. This will create a powerful digital transformation portfolio, including:

End-to-End Digital Solutions: Liberty is a leading digital modernization organization that brings industry-recognized leadership in API development, as well as the implementation of cloud and Low Code / No Code (LCNC) solutions. Its successful IT modernization track record has quickly established Liberty as a top-tier provider of solutions in the federal space. Liberty will enhance Booz Allen’s ability to deliver end-to-end digital solutions for client—blending leading technologies and practices in smart cloud strategies, secure architecture, API-first design, Agile development, DevSecOps, human-centered design, and change management to drive technology adoption and deliver rapid and reliable value across a variety of markets.

Expanded Salesforce Capabilities: Booz Allen clients will have access to a broader suite of digital transformation and strategic Salesforce capabilities through more channels. Liberty is recognized as a Salesforce Navigator Expert for its demonstrated thought leadership in the Public Sector category, as well as proven delivery on the largest and most complex projects while achieving the highest standards of customer success. Its portfolio includes 70+ successful Salesforce projects and production scale implementations; 140+ Salesforce architects, administrators, managers, and developers; and 340+ Salesforce certifications.

Advanced Technology Integration: By integrating Booz Allen’s capabilities in artificial intelligence, machine learning, cybersecurity, and other advanced technologies across an expanded digital solutions portfolio, clients will have access to an even broader and deeper range of transformative technologies.

Strategic Growth: Liberty has built a backlog of more than $2 billion in digital transformation work over the past 18 months. The acquisition is expected to create significant opportunities through meaningful revenue synergies and be a growth driver within Booz Allen’s federal portfolio.

“As the government pushes to accelerate the modernization of IT systems to increase efficiencies and improve outcomes, this acquisition will strengthen our ability to meet their critical needs,” said Kristine Martin Anderson, Executive Vice President at Booz Allen. “The addition of the Liberty team and capabilities will help us meet those needs together, propelling our digital transformation journey by blending deep technical expertise with more than a century of consulting heritage.”

The transaction allows Liberty to expand its LCNC capabilities through Booz Allen’s broad reach across the federal market. Liberty employees will be a part of Booz Allen’s network of remote solution centers, including its digital hub in Charleston, SC.

Chris Bickell, Partner at Liberty, said of the announcement, “Booz Allen and Liberty share a deep commitment to helping organizations achieve their goals through best-in-class solutions delivered with integrity, courage, and ingenuity. By pairing Liberty’s leading Salesforce and LCNC qualifications with Booz Allen’s advanced technologies and proven people, processes, and systems, we are scaling that critical support to deliver the essential transformation that clients need.”

Booz Allen expects the transaction to be immediately accretive to Booz Allen’s revenue growth rate, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted diluted earnings per share upon closing. Booz Allen has sufficient available cash to fund the transaction but is exploring final funding sources. Net leverage of ~2.5x is expected at close.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2022 and is subject to customary closing conditions. Booz Allen will provide guidance on the next earnings call on May 21st, concurrent with the reporting of its results for the fourth quarter and full year of Fiscal Year 2021 ending March 31, 2021.

Global Payments Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

Global Payments Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

Returns to Growth in the First Quarter of 2021

Raises 2021 Targets

Reaches Agreement to Acquire Leading Real Estate Technology Provider Zego

Expands European Presence with Agreement to Purchase Wordline’s PAYONE Austrian Acquiring Business

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Global Payments Inc. (NYSE: GPN) today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20210504005419/en/

“We returned to growth in the first quarter and delivered the fastest rate of sequential expansion across our markets since the end of 2019,” said Jeff Sloan, Chief Executive Officer of Global Payments. “And our performance improved substantially as the quarter progressed with growth in each of our three segments in March. We also continued to deliver on our strategic priorities with today’s announcements of our agreements to acquire Zego, a leading property technology company with a comprehensive resident management software and payments platform, and Worldline’s PAYONE Austrian acquiring business.

“We have further widened our competitive moat. With Zego we underscore our distinctive focus on software driven solutions with an emphasis on commerce enablement. With Worldline’s PAYONE Austrian acquiring business, we deepen our presence in the most attractive markets worldwide.”

Sloan concluded, “By combining strategic investments in future growth with our entry into unique relationships with two of the world’s largest technology companies, ongoing consistency in execution and our longstanding focus on returning capital efficiently to our shareholders, we are as optimistic today as we have been since prior to the pandemic. We exited the first quarter of 2021 in a better position than we entered it.”

First Quarter 2021 Summary

  • GAAP revenues were $1.99 billion, compared to $1.90 billion in the first quarter of 2020; diluted earnings per share were $0.66 compared to $0.48 in the prior year; and operating margin was 13.8% compared to 12.8% in the prior year.
  • Adjusted net revenues increased 5% to $1.81 billion, compared to $1.73 billion in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted earnings per share increased 15% to $1.82, compared to $1.58 in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Adjusted operating margin of 40.6% expanded 160 basis points.

2021 Outlook

“We are pleased with our financial performance in the first quarter, which demonstrated meaningful sequential momentum,” said Paul Todd, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Consistent execution of our technology-enabled strategy resulted in adjusted net revenue growth, adjusted operating margin expansion and double-digit adjusted earnings per share growth during the quarter despite a difficult comparison given the late March onset of COVID-19 last year.

“While achieving these strong results, we have also made substantial progress with our integration activities and remain on track to realize our targeted synergies within three years from the close of the TSYS merger. Specifically, we continue to expect annual run rate revenue synergies to amount to at least $150 million and annual run rate expense synergies to amount to at least $400 million by September 2022.

“We are raising our expectations for full year 2021 adjusted net revenue to be in the range of $7.55 billion to $7.625 billion, reflecting growth of 12% to 13%, and we are increasing our adjusted earnings per share estimate to be in a range of $7.87 to $8.07, or growth of 23% to 26% over 2020.”

Todd concluded, “This outlook presumes we remain on a path toward recovery worldwide over the balance of the year and does not include any impact from the transactions we announced today. We expect the Zego and Worldline Austrian business acquisitions to close by the end of the second quarter and in the second half of 2021, respectively.”

Capital Allocation

Global Payments’ Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.195 per share payable June 25, 2021 to shareholders of record as of June 11, 2021.

(1)

Represents adjustments to revenues for gross-up related payments (included in operating expenses) associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, includes $1.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, to eliminate the effect of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for software-related contract liabilities associated with acquired businesses.

 

(2)

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, earnings adjustments to operating income include $329.2 million in cost of services (COS) and $128.9 million in selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A). Adjustments to COS represent amortization of acquired intangibles of $329.2 million. Adjustments to SG&A include share-based compensation expense of $37.2 million and acquisition and integration expenses of $91.7 million. Net income attributable to Global Payments also reflects the removal of $6.3 million of equity method investment earnings from our interest in a private equity investment fund.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, earnings adjustments to operating income included $320.3 million in COS and $107.5 million in SG&A expenses. Adjustments to COS include $314.8 million of amortization of acquired intangibles and $5.5 million of other items. Adjustments to SG&A include $27.8 million of share-based compensation expense, $71.6 million of acquisition and integration expenses and $8.1 million of other items. Other items included in COS and SG&A include employee termination benefits and other incremental charges directly related to COVID-19. Net income attributable to Global Payments also reflects the removal of a $6.7 million loss associated with the partial sale of an ownership position in a strategic partner.

 

(3)

Income taxes on adjustments reflect the tax effect of earnings adjustments to income before income taxes. The tax rate used in determining the tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Global Payments supplements revenues, income, operating income, operating margin and EPS determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP by providing these measures with certain adjustments (such measures being non-GAAP financial measures) in this document to assist with evaluating our performance. In addition to GAAP measures, management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to focus on the factors the company believes are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Management believes adjusted net revenue more closely reflects the economic benefits to the company’s core business and allows for better comparisons with industry peers. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, together with other metrics, to set goals for and measure the performance of the business and to determine incentive compensation. Adjusted net revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, revenues, operating income, net income and EPS determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted net revenue excludes gross-up related payments associated with certain lines of business to reflect economic benefits to the company. On a GAAP basis, these payments are presented gross in both revenues and operating expenses. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS exclude acquisition-related amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense and certain other items, such as unusual, direct and discrete costs due to the global pandemic, specific to each reporting period as more fully described in the accompanying reconciliations in Schedules 6 and 7. Adjusted operating margin is derived by dividing adjusted operating income by adjusted net revenue. The tax rate used in determining the income tax impact of earnings adjustments is either the jurisdictional statutory rate in effect at the time of the adjustment or the jurisdictional expected annual effective tax rate for the period, depending on the nature and timing of the adjustment.
