Ziff Davis Reports First Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Reaffirms 2023 Guidance

Ziff Davis, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZD) (“Ziff Davis” or “the Company”) today reported unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“While the operating environment remains challenging, we’re pleased to see incremental improvements in several of our businesses,” said Vivek Shah, Chief Executive Officer of Ziff Davis. “The quarter's strong free cash flow reinforces our healthy balance sheet while we actively seek capital allocation opportunities."

FIRST QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

  • Q1 2023 quarterly revenues decreased 2.5% to $307.1 million compared to $315.1 million for Q1 2022.
  • Income from operations decreased 14.1% to $26.3 million compared to $30.6 million for Q1 2022.
  • Net (loss) income decreased to $(7.6) million compared to $24.5 million for Q1 2022 primarily due to unrealized loss from investment in equity securities in Q1 2023 compared to unrealized gain in Q1 2022 and higher losses from equity method investment in Q1 2023 compared to those in Q1 2022.
  • Net (loss) income per diluted share(2) decreased to $(0.16) in Q1 2023 compared to $0.51 for Q1 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the quarter decreased 6.4% to $94.3 million compared to $100.8 million for Q1 2022.
  • Adjusted net income(1) decreased 10.7% to $51.7 million compared to $57.9 million for Q1 2022.
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share(1)(2) (or “Adjusted diluted EPS”) for the quarter decreased 10.6% to $1.10 compared to $1.23 for Q1 2022.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $115.3 million in Q1 2023 compared to $116.5 million in Q1 2022. Free cash flow(1) was $85.3 million in Q1 2023 compared to $86.0 million in Q1 2022.
  • Ziff Davis ended the quarter with approximately $876.6 million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments after deploying approximately $14.7 million during the quarter for current and prior year acquisitions.

The following table reflects additional results for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 (in millions, except per share amounts).

ZIFF DAVIS GUIDANCE

The Company reaffirms its guidance for fiscal year 2023 as follows (in millions, except per share data):

Low

 

High

Revenue

$

1,350.0

_______________
*

Adjusted diluted EPS for 2023 excludes share based compensation ranging between $32 million and $34 million, amortization of acquired intangibles, and the impact of any currently unanticipated items, in each case net of tax. It is anticipated that the Adjusted effective tax rate for 2023 will be between 23.0% and 25.0%.

A reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted diluted EPS to the corresponding GAAP guidance financial measures is not available without unreasonable effort due, primarily, to variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of non-operating matters that may arise in the future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income per diluted share, Free cash flow, and Adjusted effective tax rate (collectively the “non-GAAP financial measures”). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results or, in certain cases, may be non-cash in nature. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures presented in accordance with GAAP, and our use of these terms may vary from that of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the certain items listed below. Excluding these items from the non-GAAP measures facilitates comparisons to historical operating results and comparisons to peers, many of which exclude similar items. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures excluding these items provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. We further believe these measures are useful to investors in that they allow for greater transparency of certain line items in the Company’s financial statements.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net income (loss) with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain items including:

  • Interest expense, net;
  • (Gain) loss on debt extinguishment, net;
  • (Gain) loss on sale of business;
  • Unrealized (gain) loss on short-term investments held at the reporting date, including the unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in Consensus Cloud Solutions, Inc. (“Consensus”);
  • (Gain) loss on investments, net;
  • Other (income) expense, net;
  • Income tax (benefit) expense;
  • (Income) loss from equity method investments, net;
  • Depreciation and amortization;
  • Share-based compensation;
  • Acquisition, integration, and other costs, including adjustments to contingent consideration, lease terminations, retention bonuses, other acquisition-specific items, and other costs, such as severance and legal settlements;
  • Disposal related costs associated with disposal of certain businesses;
  • Lease asset impairments and other charges; and
  • Goodwill impairment on business.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenue.

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as Net income (loss) with adjustments to reflect the addition or elimination of certain statement of operations items including, but not limited to:

  • Interest costs related to the difference between the imputed and coupon interest expense associated with the 4.625% Senior Notes in each period presented;
  • (Gain) loss on debt extinguishment, net;
  • (Gain) loss on sale of business;
  • Unrealized (gain) loss on short-term investments held at the reporting date, including the unrealized (gain) loss on our investment in Consensus;
  • (Gain) loss on investments, net;
  • (Income) loss from equity method investments, net;
  • Amortization of patents and intangible assets that we acquired;
  • Goodwill impairment on business;
  • Share-based compensation;
  • Acquisition, integration and other costs, including adjustments to contingent consideration, lease terminations, retention bonuses, other acquisition-specific items, and other costs, such as severance and legal settlements;
  • Disposal related costs associated with disposal of certain businesses;
  • Lease asset impairments and other charges; and
  • Dilutive effect of the convertible debt.

Adjusted net income per diluted share is calculated by dividing Adjusted net income (loss) by the diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding that excludes the effect of convertible debt dilution.

Free cash flow is defined as Net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, plus changes in contingent consideration.
