BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADT Inc. (NYSE:ADT) today reported the results for its second quarter of 2018.

“Our team made great progress delivering across the key operating metrics that drove our financial performance this quarter, including stronger cash flow generation,” stated Tim Whall, ADT’s Chief Executive Officer.  “We also further strengthened our critical role at the center of the connected home while continuing to capitalize on attractive opportunities in the commercial business.  Looking ahead, through our disciplined approach we are positioned to deliver efficient and profitable growth that generates strong cash flow and ultimately attractive returns for our shareholders.”

SECOND QUARTER 2018 RESULTS(1)

Total revenue was $1.13 billion, up 6% year-over-year.  Monitoring and related services revenue (“M&S revenue”), which comprised $1.02 billion of total revenue, was up 2% over the same period last year.  The growth in M&S revenue was attributable to an increase in monthly recurring revenue, largely driven by higher average prices combined with improvements in gross customer revenue attrition.  In addition to M&S revenue, installation and other revenue was up by an additional $48 million from last year, primarily driven by commercial revenues as a result of the successful execution of our commercial growth strategy.

The Company reported a net loss of $67 million, compared to prior year’s net loss of $93 million.  The improvement in net loss was due to growth in total revenue, lower interest expense, and higher other income primarily arising from a one-time license arrangement, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses.  Diluted earnings per share was $(0.09) versus $(0.14) in the prior year.  Diluted earnings per share before special items was $(0.07) versus $(0.11) in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter was $610 million, up 5%, or $27 million from the same period in the prior year.  Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA growth was a result of higher M&S revenue combined with lower net costs associated with the acquisition of customers.

Adjusted Net Income was $113 million versus $37 million in the same period in the prior year, an increase of $76 million.  The improvement in Adjusted Net Income was due to year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA and lower cash interest.

Trailing twelve-month gross customer revenue attrition improved 50 basis points year-over-year, ending at 13.6%.  The improvement was due to the Company’s focus on adding new high-quality customers and enhancing customer service levels in its field offices and call centers.

Trailing twelve-month customer revenue payback improved to 2.4 years from 2.6 years in the second quarter of 2017.  The improvement was the result of more efficient sales and marketing spend combined with reductions in net installation costs largely driven by higher upfront revenue collection and other actions.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first half of the year was $963 million, up from $743 million in the same period in the prior year.  The increase in operating cash flow was primarily due to year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA, lower cash interest paid, lower fees paid related to transactions with various investors and lenders, as well as the timing of other operating cash receipts and payments.  Net cash used in investing activities in the first half of the year was $696 million, compared to $649 million in the same period in the prior year, and primarily consisted of costs associated with the acquisition of customers through the Company’s direct and dealer channels.  The first half of 2018 also includes cash paid for acquisitions.  Net cash provided by financing activities in the first half of the year was $705 million and consisted primarily of the proceeds from our initial public offering, partially offset by repayments of our long-term borrowings.  In the same period in the prior year, net cash used in financing activities was $107 million and consisted of payments of dividends to our equity holders partially offset by the net proceeds from long-term borrowings.  Free Cash Flow before special items increased to $310 million from $191 million in the same period in the prior year.  The year-over-year improvement in Free Cash Flow before special items was driven by growth in Adjusted EBITDA, lower interest, and improvement in working capital and other.

HIGHLIGHTS

ADT Go: Extending 24/7 Protection Beyond the Home -  The Company announced the launch of ADT Go in Q1 during this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.  ADT Go now has over 150,000 free downloads and expands protection beyond the home, giving users peace of mind in knowing loved ones are safe regardless of where life takes them.  The mobile application allows individuals to stay connected using Family Location Sharing and an Emergency SOS feature.  ADT Go also extends safety to the road, with Roadside Assistance, Automatic Crash Detection and Response, and Safe Driving Reports.  ADT Go remains free to all users, with certain services expected to convert to a premium paid tier in late 2018.

Acquisitions: Expansion of Commercial Capabilities - In early July, the Company continued to execute on its commercial growth strategy of adding new talent and commercial capabilities by closing the acquisition of Access Systems Integration (“ASI”).  Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Eatontown, NJ, ASI is a regional systems integrator specializing in delivery, installation, and servicing of electronic security systems including enterprise-level access control, video and visitor management solutions, perimeter security, and security operation command centers.  The addition represents another strong step toward ADT’s strategy of driving further commercial growth and expansion.

The Company also acquired Secure Designs, Inc. (SDI), extending security solutions beyond the physical premise to help protect small businesses and their digital networks.  Based in Greensboro, North Carolina, SDI is an established leader in providing effective, high-value managed internet security services for micro, small and mid-sized businesses.  As part of ADT’s cybersecurity offering, the company will implement, monitor, and manage network defense systems, including firewall services and intrusion prevention, protecting small business networks from a diverse and challenging set of global cyber threats.

Koch Redemption - As previously communicated, on July 2, 2018, the Company redeemed the original stated value of $750 million of the Koch Preferred Securities for total consideration of approximately $950 million, which included approximately $200 million related to the payment of the redemption premium, accumulated dividends, and tax reimbursements.

Quarterly Dividend - On August 8, 2018, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.035 per share to common stockholders of record as of September 18, 2018.  This dividend will be paid on October 2, 2018.

2018 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

The Company is providing the following updated financial guidance for 2018:

(in millions, except attrition data) 2018 Original 2018 Revised
Total Revenue $4,450 - $4,550 $4,500 - $4,550
Adjusted EBITDA $2,415 - $2,435 $2,425 - $2,435
Free Cash Flow before special items(2) $475 - $525 $500 - $525
Gross Customer Revenue Attrition 13.0% - 13.3% 13.0% - 13.3%

The Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of our financial outlook for Adjusted EBITDA  and Free Cash Flow before special items to net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, which are their corresponding GAAP measures because these GAAP measures that we exclude from our non-GAAP financial outlook are difficult to reliably predict or estimate without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as special items discussed below under the heading — Non-GAAP Measures “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Free Cash Flow before special items.”  Additionally, information that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results.

 (1)   All reported amounts are on a quarter-to-date basis, unless otherwise noted.  All variances are year-over-year unless otherwise noted.  Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow before special items, Adjusted Net Income, and Diluted earnings per share before special items are non-GAAP measures.  Refer to the “Non-GAAP Measures” section for the definitions of these terms and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

To provide investors with additional information in connection with our results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow before special items, Adjusted Net Income, Net Income (Loss) before special items, and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) before special items.  These measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating income, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items.  Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss adjusted for (i) interest, (ii) taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets, (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions, (v) share-based compensation expense, (vi) purchase accounting adjustments under GAAP, (vii) merger, restructuring, integration, and other costs, (viii) financing and consent fees, (ix) foreign currency gains/losses, (x) losses on extinguishment of debt, (xi) radio conversion costs, (xii) management fees and other charges, and (xiii) other non-cash items.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA.  Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income tax expense, and other adjustments which directly affect our net income or loss.  These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.  The Adjusted EBITDA discussion above is also applicable to its margin measure, which is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of monitoring and related services revenue.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow as cash from operating activities less cash outlays related to capital expenditures. We define capital expenditures to include purchases of property, plant, and equipment; subscriber system asset additions; and accounts purchased through our network of authorized dealers or third parties outside of our authorized dealer network.  In arriving at Free Cash Flow, we subtract cash outlays related to capital expenditures from cash from operating activities because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities.  As a result, subject to the limitations described below, Free Cash Flow is useful measure of our cash available to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends.

Free Cash Flow adjusts for cash items that are ultimately within management’s discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash that is available than the most comparable GAAP measure.  Free Cash Flow is not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.  These limitations are best addressed by using Free Cash Flow in combination with the GAAP cash flow numbers.

Free Cash Flow before special items

We define Free Cash Flow before special items as Free Cash Flow adjusted for charges and gains related to (i) acquisitions, (ii) integrations, (iii) restructuring, (iv) impairments, and (v) other income or charges that may mask the operating results or business trends of the Company.  As a result, subject to the limitations described below, Free Cash Flow before special items is useful measure of our cash available to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends.

Free Cash Flow before special items adjusts for cash items that are ultimately within management’s discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash that is available than the most comparable GAAP measure.  Free Cash Flow before special items is not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.  These limitations are best addressed by using Free Cash Flow before special items in combination with the GAAP cash flow numbers.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP measure that we present to provide additional information to investors about our operating performance.  We define Adjusted Net Income as Adjusted EBITDA less (1) capitalized subscriber acquisition costs, (2) cash taxes, and (3) cash interest paid, including interest on our preferred securities.  Given our capital intensive business model, high debt levels, and the fact we are a low cash income tax paying Company due to our significant net operating loss, the Company uses this measure to reflect the cash portion of such adjusted items mentioned above to further evaluate our operational performance.  There are material limitations to using Adjusted Net Income. Adjusted Net Income does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income tax expense, and other adjustments which directly affect our net income or loss.  These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering Adjusted Net Income in conjunction with net income or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Net Income (Loss) and Diluted EPS before special items

Net Income (Loss) and Diluted EPS before special items are non-GAAP measures that may be used from time to time and should not be considered replacements for GAAP results.  Net Income (Loss) before special items is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) share-based compensation expense, (ii) purchase accounting adjustments under GAAP, (iii) merger, restructuring, integration, and other costs, (iv) financing and consent fees, (v) foreign currency gains/losses, (vi) loss on extinguishment of debt, (vii) radio conversion costs, (viii) management fees and other charges, (ix) other non-cash items, and (x) the impact these adjusted items have on the effective tax rate. Diluted EPS before special items is diluted earnings per share adjusted for the items above.  The difference between Net Income (Loss) before special items and diluted EPS before special items, and net income (loss) and diluted EPS (the most comparable GAAP measures) consists of the impact of the special items noted above on the applicable GAAP measure.  The Company believes that Net Income (Loss) and Diluted EPS both before special items are benchmarks used by analysts and investors who follow the industry for comparison of its performance with other companies in the industry, although our measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.  The limitation of these measures is that they exclude the impact (which may be material) of items that increase or decrease our reported operating income, operating margin, net income or loss, and EPS.  This limitation is best addressed by using the non-GAAP measures in combination with the most comparable GAAP measures in order to better understand the amounts, character, and impact of any increase or decrease on reported results.
