IRVING, Texas, March 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exela Technologies, Inc. (“Exela” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: XELA), a global business process automation (“BPA”) leader, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

“We are pleased with our execution and meeting our latest revenue expectations for the full year 2021 while also producing higher gross profit dollars despite lower year-over-year revenue. As COVID-19 headwinds subside, we are pleased with higher renewal rates, expansion with existing customers, new wins and a healthy pipeline,” said Ronald Cogburn, Chief Executive Officer of Exela.

Cogburn continued, “The completion of the debt exchange offer reduced the overall amount of debt and will substantially reduce our debt interest expense. We expect further improvements within our underlying business that will lead to additional improvements in margins and cash flow in future periods.”

Full Year Highlights

  • Revenue: Revenue was $1,166.6 million, in-line with guidance in 2021, a decline of 9.7% from $1,292.6 million in 2020 primarily due to lower volumes and transition revenue.
    • Revenue for the Information and Transaction Processing Solutions (“ITPS”) segment was $874.2 million, representing a decline of 13.0% year-over-year.
    • Healthcare Solutions revenue was $217.8 million, a decrease of 0.5% year-over-year.
    • Legal and Loss Prevention Services revenue was $74.6 million, representing an increase of 9.1% from 2020.
    • 88% customer renewal rate in 2021.
  • Operating income: Operating income in 2021 was $21.4 million, compared with an operating loss of $16.4 million in 2020. The year-over-year improvement was primarily attributable to better operating performance led by higher gross profit(2), lower SGA costs and depreciation and amortization expenses, partially offset by higher related party expenses.
  • Net Loss: Net Loss for 2021 was $142.4 million, compared with a net loss of $178.5 million in 2020. The year-over-year improvement in net loss primarily reflects the aforementioned improvement in operating income, lower interest expense and gain on extinguishment of debt.
    • EBITDA: EBITDA(3) in 2021 was $114.5 million; improved compared with EBITDA of $102.9 million in 2020. EBITDA margin for 2021 was 9.8%; improved compared with EBITDA margin of 8.0% in 2020, primarily driven by the higher operating income.
    • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA(4) in 2021 was $173.3 million, compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $173.4 million in 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin for 2021 was 14.9% compared with Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.4% in 2020, an increase of 144 basis points.
  • Capital Expenditures: Capital expenditures for 2021 were 1.4% of revenue compared to 1.2% of revenue in 2020, in-line with guidance.
  • Common Stock: As of December 31, 2021, there were 265,194,961 total shares outstanding and an additional 1,309,187 shares of common stock reserved for issuance for our outstanding preferred shares on an as-converted basis.
  • Total employees: 17,000 total employees as of December 31, 2021, as compared to 19,000, as of December 31, 2020.

Fourth Quarter Highlights

  • Revenue: Revenue for Q4 2021 was $294.3 million, a decline of 6.3% compared to $314.1 million in Q4 2020.
    • Revenue for the ITPS segment was $216.7 million, a decline of 11.0% year-over-year, primarily due to lower volumes and underutilization of resources as a result of COVID-19 and in particular to its impact on the onsite business. Exela believes it is well positioned to see these volumes return in the ITPS segment as COVID-19 impacts subside.
    • Healthcare Solutions revenue was $56.5 million, an increase of 9.5% year-over-year.
    • Legal and Loss Prevention Services revenue was $21.1 million, an increase of 11.6% year-over-year.
    • Q4 2021 DrySign user growth of 135% and DMR customer growth of 44% from Q3 2021.
    • Announced partnership with UK’s Post Office, that country's largest provider of transactional banking services with over 11,500 branches to process checks securely and expeditiously.
    • Expanded PCH Global Deployment for one of the world’s largest specialty care services insurance companies, highlighting the Company’s ability to rapidly implement PCH Global for claims submitted by providers, in this case servicing a multinational managed care.
  • Operating income: Operating loss for Q4 2021 was $10.7 million, compared with operating loss of $13.9 million in Q4 2020. The year-over-year decrease in operating loss was primarily attributable to lower depreciation and amortization expenses, partially offset by lower gross profit and higher SGA expenses.
  • Net Loss: Net loss for Q4 2021 was $70.6 million, compared with a net loss of $88.9 million in Q4 2020, primarily driven by lower interest expense.
    • EBITDA: EBITDA loss for Q4 2021 was $3.1 million, compared to a loss of $8.6 million in Q4 2020. EBITDA margin for Q4 2021 was negative 1.0%, an increase of 172 basis points from negative 2.8% in Q4 2020.
    • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for Q4 2021 was $39.5 million, an increase of 6.4% compared to $37.2 million in Q4 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin for Q4 2021 was 13.4%, an increase of 160 basis points from 11.8% in Q4 2020 and flat from 13.0% in Q3 2021.
  • Capital Expenditures: Capital expenditures for Q4 2021 were 2.9% of revenue compared to 2.0% of revenue in Q4 2020.

Key additional Highlights

Expanding financial flexibility:

As of December 31, 2021, Exela raised a total of $407 million in gross proceeds from equity offerings. In accordance with Exela's plan to strategically reduce its debt and associated interest expense obligations as well as explore ways to invest in its growth, Exela used proceeds from its equity offerings to repurchase or repay an aggregate principal amount of $438.8 million of its debt as of December 31, 2021 resulting in a year-over-year reduction in our Long-term debt of $454 million.

Exela expects its annual operating cash flow to improve by approximately $50 million in 2022.

Today Exela announced the successful completion of its previously announced offer to exchange shares of its Common Stock for its 6.00% Series B Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), with each 20 shares of Common Stock being exchanged for one share of Series B Preferred Stock having a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (the “Offer”). Pursuant to the Offer, 17,676,880 shares of Common Stock (excluding shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures) were validly tendered for exchange and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Date. Exela will exchange all such shares of Common Stock for a total of 883,844 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

Exela plans to continue working on expanding its financial flexibility with the objective to improve consolidated cash flows from all activities.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This press release includes constant currency, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Exela believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity and allows investors to better understand the trends in our business and to better understand and compare our results. Exela’s board of directors and management use constant currency, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess Exela’s financial performance, because it allows them to compare Exela’s operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of Exela’s capital structure (such as varying levels of debt and interest expense, as well as transaction costs resulting from the combination of Quinpario Acquisition Corp. 2, SourceHOV Holdings, Inc. and Novitex Holdings, Inc. on July 12, 2017 (the “Novitex Business Combination”) and capital markets-based activities). Adjusted EBITDA also seeks to remove the effects of integration and related costs to achieve the savings, any expected reduction in operating expenses due to the Novitex Business Combination, asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and other similar non-routine items outside the control of our management team. Optimization and restructuring expenses and merger adjustments are primarily related to the implementation of strategic actions and initiatives related to the Novitex Business Combination. All of these costs are variable and dependent upon the nature of the actions being implemented and can vary significantly driven by business needs. Accordingly, due to that significant variability, we exclude these charges since we do not believe they truly reflect our past, current or future operating performance. The constant currency presentation excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We calculate constant currency revenue and Adjusted EBITDA on a constant currency basis by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the exchange rates from the corresponding prior-period and compare these adjusted amounts to our corresponding prior period reported results. Exela does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to liquidity or financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Exela’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures and therefore the basis of presentation for these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not required to be uniformly applied, are not audited and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Net loss is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to the non-GAAP measures presented here. For reconciliation of the comparable GAAP measures to these non-GAAP financial measures, see the schedules attached to this release.
