PFSweb Reports Fourth Quarter and Year Ended 2008 Results
- - -
Company Achieves 2008 Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income Guidance
- - -
Service Fee Revenue Increases Year-over-Year 15% to $85.4 million
PLANO, Texas, March 31, 2009 — PFSweb, Inc. (Nasdaq: PFSW), an international business process outsourcing provider of end-to-end web commerce solutions and an online discount retailer, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2008.
Mark Layton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of PFSweb, stated, “We are pleased with our $10.1 million Adjusted EBITDA and $1.9 million non-GAAP net income results for calendar year 2008, both of which were within our previously provided guidance. Our 2008 results reflect the second consecutive year of positive non-GAAP net income and positive free cash flow results, and our December 2008 quarter marks our seventh consecutive quarter of positive non-GAAP net income performance.
“I am also pleased to announce that we have completed renewals of our financing facilities with IBM Global Finance and Comerica through March 2010. Along with the extension of our agreements with Wachovia and Fortis earlier this year, we believe we have the financing in place to support our current business needs.
“Looking forward, we believe the Company is in a good position to continue executing its business strategies and building shareholder equity. While growth in 2009 may be challenging due to the current economic environment and certain client modifications, we have adjusted and will continue to monitor our cost structure in an effort to target breakeven to positive free cash flow performance in calendar year 2009” Mr. Layton continued.
Summary of consolidated results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2008:
    Total reported revenue was $112.8 million compared to $122.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2007;
 
    Adjusted EBITDA (as defined) was $2.4 million versus $3.5 million for the same period last year;

 


 

    Net income, excluding a non-cash charge of $16.3 million attributable to the impairment of identifiable intangibles and goodwill of eCOST.com, was $0.1 million, or $.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $0.7 million, or $0.07 per basic share and $0.06 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2007;
  o   Including the impact of the non-cash impairment charge, net loss for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $16.3 million, or $1.63 per basic and diluted share. The charge was taken in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” primarily due to adverse equity market conditions and the global economic downturn that caused a decrease in the current market multiples and the Company’s stock price as of December 31, 2008. While the impairment charge reduced reported results for 2008, it does not affect operations, debt covenants, or the Company’s liquidity position as of December 31, 2008;
    Non-GAAP net income (as defined) was $387,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.1 million, or $0.11 per basic share and $0.10 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2007;
 
    Merchandise sales (as defined) totaled approximately $725 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 versus approximately $850 million for the same period last year; and
 
    Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash equaled $18.1 million as of December 31, 2008 compared to $16.3 million as of December 31, 2007.
Summary of consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2008:
    Total reported revenue was $451.8 million, compared to $446.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007;
 
    Adjusted EBITDA (as defined) was $10.1 million versus $10.9 million for the same period last year;
 
    Net income, excluding a non-cash impairment charge of $16.3 million attributable to the identifiable intangibles and goodwill of eCOST.com, was $0.6 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2007;
  o   Including the impact of the non-cash impairment charge, net loss for calendar year 2008 was $15.7 million, or $1.58 per basic and diluted share;
    Non-GAAP net income (as defined) was $1.9 million, or $0.20 per basic and diluted share, compared to a non-GAAP net income of $0.2 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, for the same period last year;
 
    Free cash flow (as defined) was $3.7 million, compared to free cash flow of $1.5 million for the same period last year; and
 
    Merchandise sales (as defined) totaled nearly $2.8 billion versus $2.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Summary of results by business:
Service Fee Business:
For the fourth quarter of 2008, Service Fee revenue was $21.7 million, compared with $21.5 million for the same period in 2007. The Service Fee business reported Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, compared to $2.2 million for the same period last year.

 


 

For the year ended December 31, 2008, Service Fee revenue increased 15% to $85.4 million, from $74.5 million for the same period in 2007. The Service Fee business reported Adjusted EBITDA of $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $6.5 million for the same period last year.
Mike Willoughby, President of PFSweb’s services division, commented, “We saw increased activity from the online retail segment of our client base as their programs ramped up during the year and were generally sustained within expectations during the fourth quarter.
“Our new end-to-end e-commerce solution, launched in the beginning of 2008, has performed especially well thus far. Our first end-to-end agreement went live in August with the re-launch of the Roots.com sites for the U.S. and Canadian markets. Since then, we have also launched the first site under a master agreement with a leading luxury goods retailer, which we previously reported. We expect to launch at least two additional brands under this master agreement during the remainder of 2009. We believe our expanded e-commerce capability has made us even more competitive and is playing an important role in helping us win large client agreements, particularly among prestigious and luxury brands.
“Since late December, we have entered into one new client relationship and are in the final contracting stage with three others. Our current pipeline of potential new agreements, including those in process of being finalized, has increased from previously announced levels, and now includes approximately $50 million in annual contract value. While we remain confident in our Service Fee business opportunities long-term, we expect total service fee revenues for 2009 will be lower than 2008, primarily due to the previously announced non-renewal of a large client engagement with an agency of the U.S. government, effective early-2009. While this contract’s non-renewal was disappointing, we have designed our business model to be flexible and we believe we have made the appropriate adjustments necessary in our cost structure to respond to the decline in revenue,” continued Mr. Willoughby.
Supplies Distributors Business:
For the fourth quarter of 2008, Supplies Distributors revenue was $52.9 million, compared to $60.6 million for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $0.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2008, compared to $1.6 million for the same period last year.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, Supplies Distributors revenue was $230.7 million, compared to $235.4 million for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $6.6 million for the same period last year.
Mr. Willoughby concluded, “Our Supplies Distributors business continues to perform well and met our Adjusted EBITDA expectations. Total revenue for the year was down slightly due to a decline in demand during the fourth quarter, which is primarily attributable to economic pressures during the period.”
eCOST.com Business:
For the fourth quarter of 2008, eCOST.com revenue was $25.1 million, compared to $28.5 million for the same period in 2007. Adjusted EBITDA for eCOST.com in the quarter was a loss of $0.2 million, a slight improvement compared to the loss of $0.3 million for the same period last year.

 


 

For the year ended December 31, 2008, eCOST.com revenues were $99.8 million, compared to $104.1 million for the same period in 2007. Adjusted EBITDA for eCOST.com in the year ended December 31, 2008 was a loss of $1.8 million, compared to a loss of $2.2 million for the same period last year.
Mr. Layton stated, “eCOST.com continued to experience strong growth in its business-to-consumer (B2C) segment during the fourth quarter and for the year, which was offset by a slowdown in the business-to-business (B2B) segment. The B2C business increased 13% as compared to the prior year, and represented 70% of eCOST.com’s total fourth quarter revenue. We remain focused on the B2C segment as we believe it is more financially attractive to our business and generally provides higher gross margins. As part of this focus, we have increased the number of targeted consumer demographic segments we service and dramatically increased the number of consumer products listed on the site.
“eCOST.com’s operations remain strong with a growing consumer business that has expanded certain product categories – including ‘for the home’ and ‘sports & leisure’ – and significant improvements to systems and support services to improve customers’ shopping experience – including adding PayPal Express Checkout. Also, in December 2008, eCOST.com launched new technology that allowed for the ‘Outrageous Offer’ marketing program. These outrageous offers – unveiled randomly multiple times each week with varying product selections – showcase outrageously low prices on a very limited selection of product units, allowing eCOST.com customers to share in the great flow of product deals that our merchants have sourced. For example in December 2008, eCOST.com showcased the Nintendo™ WII for as low as $79.00 and an Acer notebook for as low as $89.00. Due to pricing sensitivity, these offers are generally only available to Platinum Club members and are available only in very limited quantities. The Outrageous Offer program has driven substantial increases to site visitors, Platinum Club sales and new customer levels for eCOST.com since its introduction,” concluded Mr. Layton.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release contains the non-GAAP measures non-GAAP net income (loss), Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) represents net income (loss) calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP as adjusted for the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, amortization of identifiable intangible assets and impairment of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.

 


 

EBITDA represents earnings (or losses) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation, merger integration related expenses and impairment of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures.
Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are used by management, analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. The calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA further eliminates the effect of financing, income taxes, the accounting effects of capital spending and certain other merger related expenses, which items may vary from different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Free cash flow is used as a supplemental financial measure in our evaluation of liquidity and financial strength.
PFSweb believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of its core operating results. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. These non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the GAAP results in the attached tables.
Merchandise Sales
Merchandise sales represent the estimated value of all fulfillment activity that flows through PFSweb including whether or not PFSweb is the seller of the merchandise or records the full amount of such sales on its financial statements, excluding service fee revenues that PFSweb might recognize for the underlying sales transactions. PFSweb uses merchandise sales as an operating metric to allow investors to gain a more thorough understanding of its business and business volume, in addition to GAAP net revenue.
