Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

Revenue of $184.4 million decreased by $32.6 million or 15%, compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Excluding $7.7 million of revenue from taskforce, which was divested at the beginning of fiscal 2023, and on a constant currency basis, revenue decreased by 11.5%, reflecting slower buying patterns from clients as a result of a softer macroeconomic environment. Compared to the prior year quarter on the same basis (i.e., excluding taskforce), billable hours decreased by 12.6%, while average bill rate improved by 0.9% on a constant currency basis.

Gross margin was 41.1%, compared to 41.3% in the prior year quarter. The change was primarily due to lower leverage on indirect cost of service as a result of softer topline performance, offset by a 150 basis points improvement in pay/bill ratio driven by the successful execution of ongoing pricing initiative to raise bill rates and the divestiture of taskforce which historically had less favorable pay/bill ratios.

SG&A for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $56.5 million, an improvement of $2.8 million compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in SG&A costs was primarily due to lower management incentive compensation expense, partially offset by higher technology transformation costs as the Company continued to execute its technology implementation project.

The fourth quarter had a provision for income taxes of $5.4 million (an effective tax rate of 31.4%) compared to $7.2 million (an effective tax rate of 26.1%) for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was attributed to lower international pre-tax income. The lower international pre-tax income causes the effective rate to increase, especially where there is a full valuation allowance that negates the tax benefit of losses.

Net income was $11.8 million (net income margin of 6.4%), compared to $20.5 million (net income margin of 9.5%) in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower topline revenue and higher SG&A as a percentage of revenue as the Company continued to execute on its technology implementation project to drive long-term growth and efficiency. Despite continued challenges posed by the macro environment, the Company delivered a solid Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.6% in the fourth quarter.

Full Fiscal Year 2023 Results

Annual revenue declined 3.6% versus a year ago to $775.6 million but increased by 1.1% on a same-day constant currency basis excluding taskforce. Gross margin improved by 110 basis points to 40.4%, driven by the 220 basis points improvement in pay/bill ratio as the Company’s pricing initiative continued to yield positive results and as a result of taskforce divestiture. The Company’s continued focus on operational efficiency supported a healthy ratio of SG&A to revenue of 29.5%, with SG&A of $228.8 million including $6.4 million of technology transformation costs. Despite a challenging macro environment throughout the fiscal year, the Company delivered net income of $54.4 million (net income margin of 7.0%) including a goodwill impairment charge of $3.0 million related to Sitrick, diluted earnings per common share of $1.59, and a strong Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.9%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company utilizes certain financial measures and key performance indicators that are not defined by, or calculated in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) to assess our financial and operating performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that (i) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Consolidated Statements of Operations; or (ii) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the comparable GAAP measure so calculated and presented. The following non-GAAP measures are presented in this press release:

• Same-day constant currency revenue is adjusted for the following items:
  • Currency impact. In order to remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company calculates same-day constant currency revenue, which represents the outcome that would have resulted had exchange rates in the current period been the same as those in effect in the comparable prior period.

  • Business days impact. In order to remove the fluctuations caused by comparable periods having a different number of business days, the Company calculates same-day revenue as current period revenue (adjusted for currency impact) divided by the number of business days in the current period, multiplied by the number of business days in the comparable prior period. The number of business days in each respective period is provided in the “Number of Business Days” section of the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table below.

• EBITDA is calculated as net income before amortization expense, depreciation expense, interest and income taxes.

• Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus stock-based compensation expense, technology transformation costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring costs, and contingent consideration adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA at the segment level excludes certain shared corporate administrative costs that are not practical to allocate.

• Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue.

• Cash tax rate excludes the non-cash tax impact of stock option expirations, non-cash tax impact of valuation allowances on international deferred tax assets, and other non-cash tax items.

• Adjusted income tax expense (benefit) is calculated based on the Company’s cash tax rates (as defined above).

• Adjusted diluted earnings per common share is calculated as diluted earnings per common share, plus or minus the per share impact of stock-based compensation expense, technology transformation costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring costs, contingent consideration adjustments, and adjusted for the related tax effects of these adjustments.

We believe the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures, which are used by management to assess the core performance of our Company, provide useful information and additional clarity of our operating results to our investors in their own evaluation of the core performance of our Company and facilitate a comparison of such performance from period to period. These are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as substitutes for revenue, net income or other cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP for purposes of analyzing our revenue, profitability or liquidity. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenue, net income, earnings per share, cash flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies, as other companies may calculate such financial results differently.

Segment Results

On May 31, 2022, the Company divested taskforce – Management on Demand GmbH, and its wholly owned subsidiary skillforce –Executive Search GmbH, a German professional services firm operating under the taskforce brand (“taskforce”). Since the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the business operated by taskforce, along with its parent company, Resources Global Professionals (Germany) GmbH, an affiliate of the Company, represented an operating segment of the Company and was reported as a part of Other Segments. Effective May 31, 2022, the Company’s operating segments consist of RGP and Sitrick, within the other segment category. Prior-period comparative segment information was not restated as a result of the divestiture of taskforce as the Company did not have a change in internal organization or the financial information that the Chief Operating Decision Maker uses to assess performance and allocate resources.

RGP is the Company’s only operating segment that meets the quantitative threshold of a reportable segment. Sitrick does not individually meet the quantitative threshold to qualify as a reportable segment. Therefore, Sitrick is disclosed in Other Segments.

The following table discloses the Company’s revenue and Adjusted EBITDA by segment for each of the periods presented (in thousands):
