MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nDeluxe (NYSE: DLX), a Trusted Payments and Data company, today reported operating results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\u201cWe had a solid start to 2023 highlighted by increases in both comparable adjusted revenue and EBITDA,\u201d said Barry McCarthy, President and CEO of Deluxe. \u201cWe are pleased to see modest growth in both of these metrics, particularly with profits growing faster than revenue, demonstrating continued improvement in operating leverage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe are encouraged by our overall performance in the first quarter, and we are affirming our full-year 2023 guidance,\u201d said Chip Zint, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Deluxe. \u201cWe also completed the go-live of our ERP system, the last of our “Six Flags” infrastructure modernization initiatives. Now, in addition to continued top line growth, we are better positioned to see increases in operational efficiencies and free cash flow as the year progresses.\u201d<\/p>\n

- \n
- \nRevenue for the first quarter decreased $10.6 million from the previous year. Comparable adjusted revenue, where we have removed the impact of divesting non-core businesses, increased 0.5%.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nNet income of $2.8 million was down from $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to higher interest expense and a higher income tax rate.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted EBITDA margin was 18.4%, up 50 basis points from the prior year, driven by pricing actions and improved cost structure.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted diluted EPS was $0.80 versus $1.05 in the prior year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Outlook<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThe Company continues to expect the following for full-year 2023, inclusive of expected divestitures, and all figures are approximate:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nRevenue of $2.145 to $2.210 billion<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted EBITDA of $390 to $405 million<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted EPS of $2.90 to $3.25<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nFree cash flow of $80 to $100 million<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nAmong other things, the guidance outlined above is subject to the closure of the web hosting and logo divestiture in May 2023, prevailing macroeconomic conditions, labor supply issues, inflation, and the impact of other divestitures.<\/p>\n
Capital Allocation and Dividend<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThe Board of Directors recently approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share. The dividend will be payable on June 5, 2023 to shareholders of record as of market closing on May 22, 2023.<\/p>\n

Factors that could produce such a variation include, but are not limited to, the following: potential continuing negative impacts from pandemic health issues, such as the coronavirus \/ COVID-19, along with the impact of related government restrictions or similar directives on our future results of operations and our future financial condition; changes in local, regional, national and international economic or political conditions, including those resulting from heightened inflation, rising interest rates, a recession, or intensified international hostilities, and the impact they may have on the company, its customers or demand for the company\u2019s products and services; the effect of proposed and enacted legislative and regulatory actions affecting the company or the financial services industry as a whole; continuing cost increases and\/or declines in the availability of materials and other services; the company\u2019s ability to execute its transformational strategy and to realize the intended benefits; the inherent unreliability of earnings, revenue and cash flow predictions due to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the company\u2019s control; declining demand for the company\u2019s checks, check-related products and services and business forms; risks that the company\u2019s strategies intended to drive sustained revenue and earnings growth, despite the continuing decline in checks and forms, are delayed or unsuccessful; intense competition; continued consolidation of financial institutions and\/or bank failures, thereby reducing the number of potential customers and referral sources and increasing downward pressure on the company\u2019s revenue and gross profit; risks related to acquisitions, including integration-related risks and risks that future acquisitions will not be consummated; risks that any such acquisitions do not produce the anticipated results or synergies; risks that the company\u2019s cost reduction initiatives will be delayed or unsuccessful; risks related to any divestitures contemplated or undertaken by the company; performance shortfalls by one or more of the company\u2019s major suppliers, licensors or service providers; continuing supply chain and labor supply issues; unanticipated delays, costs and expenses in the development and marketing of products and services, including web services and financial technology and treasury management solutions; the failure of such products and services to deliver the expected revenues and other financial targets; risks related to security breaches, computer malware or other cyber-attacks; risks of interruptions to the company\u2019s website operations or information technology systems; and risks of unfavorable outcomes and the costs to defend litigation and other disputes.

<\/b>RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES

\n
(Unaudited)<\/p>\n\nNote that the company has not reconciled the adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS or free cash flow outlook for 2023 to the directly comparable GAAP financial measures because the company does not provide outlook guidance for the reconciling items between net income, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA, and certain of these reconciling items impact cash flows from operating activities. Because of the substantial uncertainty and variability surrounding certain of these forward-looking reconciling items, including: asset impairment charges, restructuring and integration costs, gains and losses on sales of businesses and facilities, and certain legal-related expenses, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort. The probable significance of certain of these reconciling items is high and, based on historical experience, could be material.<\/p>\n
EBITDA, ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN<\/b><\/p>\n
\nManagement discloses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin because it believes they are useful in evaluating the company’s operating performance, as the calculations eliminate the effect of interest expense, income taxes, the accounting effects of capital investments (i.e., depreciation and amortization) and in the case of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, certain items, as presented below, that may not be indicative of current period operating performance. In addition, management utilizes these measures to assess the operating results and performance of the business, to perform analytical comparisons and to identify strategies to improve performance. Management also believes that an increasing EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA depict an increase in the value of the company. Management does not consider EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be measures of cash flow, as they do not consider certain cash requirements, such as interest, income taxes, debt service payments or capital investments. Management does not consider EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA margin to be substitutes for operating income or net income. Instead, management believes that these amounts are useful performance measures that should be considered in addition to GAAP performance measures.<\/p>\n

(Unaudited)<\/p>\nADJUSTED DILUTED EPS<\/b><\/p>\n
\nBy excluding the impact of non-cash items or items that may not be indicative of current period operating performance, management believes that adjusted diluted EPS provides useful comparable information to assist in analyzing the company’s current and future operating performance. As such, adjusted diluted EPS is one of the key financial performance metrics used to assess the operating results and performance of the business and to identify strategies to improve performance. It is reasonable to expect that one or more of the excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized may vary significantly. Management does not consider adjusted diluted EPS to be a substitute for GAAP performance measures, but believes that it is a useful performance measure that should be considered in addition to GAAP performance measures.<\/p>\n

NET DEBT<\/b><\/p>\n
\nManagement believes that net debt is an important measure to monitor leverage and to evaluate the balance sheet. In calculating net debt, cash and cash equivalents are subtracted from total debt because they could be used to reduce the company\u2019s debt obligations. A limitation associated with using net debt is that it subtracts cash and cash equivalents, and therefore, may imply that management intends to use cash and cash equivalents to reduce outstanding debt. In addition, net debt suggests that our debt obligations are less than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates.<\/p>\n

(Unaudited)<\/p>\nFREE CASH FLOW<\/b><\/p>\n
\nManagement defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of capital assets. Management believes that free cash flow is an important indicator of cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments to maintain or expand the company\u2019s asset base. A limitation of using the free cash flow measure is that not all of the company\u2019s free cash flow is available for discretionary spending, as the company may have mandatory debt payments and other cash requirements that must be deducted from its cash available for future use. Free cash flow is not a substitute for GAAP liquidity measures. Instead, management believes that this measurement provides an additional metric to compare cash generated by operations on a consistent basis and to provide insight into the cash flow available to fund items such as dividends, mandatory and discretionary debt reduction, acquisitions or other strategic investments, and share repurchases.<\/p>\n
