Global professional services firm Huron (NASDAQ: HURN) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“Our first quarter results reflect our steady progress toward achieving the medium-term financial objectives we set forth in 2022 for double-digit revenue growth, expanded adjusted EBITDA margins, and accelerated adjusted EPS growth,” said Mark Hussey, chief executive officer and president of Huron. “Driven by strong growth across all three operating segments and in our Digital capability, revenues grew 22% over the prior year quarter, reflecting continued demand across our portfolio of end markets. Consistent with our goal to expand our profitability, adjusted EBITDA margins increased 80 basis points over the prior year quarter.”

“Our clients face significant strategic, financial and operational challenges in their markets, exacerbated by an increasingly uncertain macro environment. We believe these challenges will continue to drive solid demand for our business as we further innovate and build upon our deep, collaborative relationships with our clients,” added Hussey.

FIRST QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

Revenues increased $57.8 million, or 22.2%, to $317.9 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $260.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. This revenue growth was highlighted by 28.5% growth from the Digital capability in the aggregate across all segments and growth in the Healthcare and Education segments' Consulting and Managed Services capability of 21.5% and 20.5%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2023, compared to the same prior year period, which reflects the company's focus on accelerating growth in the healthcare and education industries.

Net income was $13.4 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $26.9 million for the same quarter last year. Diluted earnings per share was $0.68 for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $1.27 for the first quarter of 2022. Results for the first quarter of 2022 included a non-recurring, unrealized gain of $19.8 million, net of tax, related to the increase in fair value of the company's investment in a hospital-at-home company.

First quarter 2023 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")(6) was $26.7 million, compared to $47.4 million in the same prior year period.

In addition to using EBITDA to evaluate the company’s financial performance, management uses other non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the effect of the following items (in thousands):

Adjusted net income(6) increased $6.7 million, or 65.2%, to $17.1 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $10.3 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the same quarter in 2022.

The number of revenue-generating professionals(1) increased 24.6% to 5,013 as of March 31, 2023 from 4,023 as of March 31, 2022.

The utilization rate(5) for the company's Digital capability decreased to 71.0% during the first quarter 2023, compared to 72.4% during the same period last year.

Additionally, in the first quarter of 2023, Huron repurchased 632,894 shares of the company's common stock for $44.3 million.

OPERATING INDUSTRIES

Huron’s results reflect a portfolio of service offerings focused on helping clients address complex business challenges.

The company’s first quarter 2023 revenues by operating segment as a percentage of total company revenues are as follows: Healthcare (47%); Education (33%); and Commercial (20%). Financial results by operating industry are included in the attached schedules and in Huron's forthcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filing for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

OUTLOOK FOR 2023

Based on currently available information, the company is affirming guidance for full year 2023 revenues before reimbursable expenses in a range of $1.22 billion to $1.28 billion. The company also anticipates adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues in a range of 12.0% to 12.5% and non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share in a range of $3.75 to $4.25.

FIRST QUARTER 2023 WEBCAST

The company will host a webcast to discuss its financial results today, May 2, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, 4:00 p.m. Central Time. The conference call is being webcast by Notified and can be accessed from Huron's website at http://ir.huronconsultinggroup.com. A replay will be available approximately two hours after the conclusion of the webcast and for 90 days thereafter.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES(6)

In evaluating the company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the company's comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts). These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in their financial and operating decision making because management believes they reflect the company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing their business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Huron’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flows or liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Management has provided its outlook regarding adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude certain charges. Management has not reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP financial measures because guidance for the various reconciling items is not provided. Management is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because they cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of the company's control and cannot be reasonably predicted since these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

Utilization rate is calculated by dividing the number of hours our billable consultants worked on client assignments during a period by the total available working hours for these billable consultants during the same period. Available hours are determined by the standard hours worked by each billable consultant, adjusted for part-time hours, and U.S. standard work weeks. Available working hours exclude local country holidays and vacation days. Utilization rates are presented for our revenue-generating professionals who primarily bill on an hourly basis. We have not presented utilization rates for our Managed Services professionals as most of the revenues generated by these employees are not billed on an hourly basis.

In evaluating the company’s financial performance and outlook, management uses earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to gain an understanding of the company's comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts). These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in their financial and operating decision making because management believes they reflect the company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures when publicly providing the company's business outlook, for internal management purposes, and as a basis for evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Huron’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and in comparing in a consistent manner Huron’s current financial results with Huron’s past financial results. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flows or liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
