Luxoft Reports Results for First Quarter Fiscal 2019

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / August 15, 2018 / Luxoft Holding Inc. (NYSE: LXFT), a global IT service provider, today announced results for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Highlights - Three Months Ended June 30, 2018

  • Revenue of $212.8 million, up 1.7% year-over-year and down 8.6% sequentially. FX headwinds had negative impact of $5.3 million or 2.5% compared to previous quarter
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $23.8 million and adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.2%, compared to $26.4 million and 12.6% in the year-ago quarter
  • Diluted GAAP EPS of $0.14, compared to $0.18 in the year-ago quarter
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.43, compared to $0.50 in the year-ago quarter
  • As of June 30, 2018, total number of employees was 12,738; Annual revenue per billable engineer was $78,979, up 4.0% from the prior year.

Note: Reconciliations of non-GAAP to GAAP measures are included at the end of the release.

"We're off to a solid start this fiscal year with first quarter results largely ahead of our expectations," said Dmitry Loschinin, Luxoft's CEO and President. "We continue to transform our business through revenue diversification, allocation of resources to the highest-margin digital opportunities, and implementation of cost reduction efforts to strengthen our margin profile. Excluding Top Two accounts (DB & UBS)1, consolidated revenue increased 6.8% and Financial Services' revenue increased 25.4%. This was our 14th consecutive quarter of over 20% year-over-year growth in Financial Services, excluding Top-Two accounts, which speaks to the increasing value of our solutions, current market trends and our continued path for long-term growth."

We continue to see strong growth in Automotive and are transforming our Digital Enterprise business with a focus on higher-margin disruptive technologies. To that end, we recently made two small, strategic acquisitions: Smashing Ideas, a design and innovation firm, and Objective Software, a tech-focused automotive software company. These acquisitions enhance our offerings and strength our position on the value chain. Mr. Loschinin concluded, "We are committed to executing on our strategic priorities for fiscal 2019. I am confident we are taking the right steps to build a strong foundation for long-term sustainable growth and increasing shareholder returns. To the end, we have returned $20 million directly to shareholders via our share repurchase program announced in April."

First Quarter Key Operating Highlights

  • Revenue generated in North America represented 32.0% of revenue, while APAC and Europe grew 88.9% and 11.7% year over year, respectively.
  • Expanding global presence and growth outside of Financial Services is meaningfully reducing client concentration. Revenue by line of business was 55.5% Financial Services, 23.8% Digital Enterprise and 20.7% Automotive.
  • Top Two accounts amounted to 31.7% of revenue, representing a 3.2 percentage-point decrease over the prior year.
  • Top Five accounts amounted to 46.1% of revenue, an annual 4.6 percentage-point decrease, and Top Ten accounts amounted to 56.6% of revenue, a 5.3 percentage point decrease.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2019 Outlook

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $225 to $230 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of 13.5% to 14.5%.
  • Diluted GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.28 to $0.36.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with US GAAP, this press release includes the following measures defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); adjusted EBITDA; non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP diluted Earnings per share (EPS) and Free Cash Flow (FCF). EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, where interest includes unwinding of the discount rate for contingent liabilities. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of fair value adjustments to intangible assets and impairment thereof and other acquisitions related costs that may include changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities. Non-GAAP diluted EPS are calculated as non-GAAP net income divided by weighted average number of diluted shares. Free Cash Flow is calculated as operating cash flow less capital expenditure which consists of purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as defined in the cash flow statement.

We adjust our non-GAAP financial measures to exclude stock based compensation, because it is a non-cash expense. We also adjust our non-GAAP financial measures to exclude the change in fair value of contingent consideration, because we believe these expenses are not indicative of what we consider to be normal course of operations. Our non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted to exclude amortization of purchased intangible assets in order to allow management and investors to evaluate our results from operating activities as if these assets have been developed internally rather than acquired in a business combination. Finally, we adjust our non-GAAP financial measures to exclude acquisition-related costs, which comprise payments to consulting firms as well as fees paid upon successful completion of acquisition; as well as certain incentive payments for members of management of the acquired companies as provided for in the acquisition agreements. These payments are based on performance of the acquired businesses and are classified as part of management compensation rather than part of purchase consideration. These costs vary with the size and complexity of each acquisition and are generally inconsistent in amount and frequency, and therefore, we believe that they may not be indicative of the size and volume of future acquisition-related costs.

We provide these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that they present a better measure of our core business and management uses them internally to evaluate our ongoing performance. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enhancing and understanding of our operating performance. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, comparable US GAAP measures. The non-GAAP results and a full reconciliation between US GAAP and non-GAAP results are provided in the accompanying tables at the end of this press release.
