FLEETCOR Reports Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results

October 30, 2018

PEACHTREE CORNERS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 30, 2018-- FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:FLT), a leading global provider of commercial payment solutions, today reported financial results for its third quarter of 2018.

“Our third quarter revenues and profits once again finished above our expectations, with adjusted net income per diluted share growth of 23%. We delivered another solid organic revenue growth quarter of 11% overall, driven primarily by strong double digit growth rates in our Corporate Payments, Tolls, and Lodging categories,” said Ron Clarke, chairman and chief executive officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. “Also we continue to advance our beyond tolls strategy in Brazil by recently signing Estapar, the largest parking facility operator in Brazil, and McDonald’s to provide acceptance at their drive-thru’s. We believe both of these agreements will be supportive of our growth in 2019 and beyond.”

Financial Results for Third Quarter of 2018:

GAAP Results

  • Total revenues, including the impact of the new revenue recognition standard ASC 606, increased 7% to $619.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $577.9 million in the third quarter of 2017.
  • Net incomedecreased 22% to $157.7 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $202.8 million in the third quarter of 2017. Included in the third quarter of 2017 was a net benefit of approximately $65 million from the sale of the Nextraq business, partially offset by changes in our investment arrangement in Masternaut that caused a change in our accounting for the investment from the equity method to cost method.
  • Net incomeper diluted share decreased 21% to $1.71 in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $2.18 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2017, due to the reason discussed above.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606") and related cost capitalization guidance, using the modified retrospective method by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC 606 as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at January 1, 2018. As such, the Company is not required to restate comparative financial information prior to the adoption of ASC 606 and, therefore, such information for the three months ended September 30, 2017 continues to be reported under FASB ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition" ("ASC 605"). The adoption of ASC 606 did not materially impact the Company’s financial position. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the adoption of ASC 606 reduced revenue by $28.0 million and increased operating income by $1.3 million. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on net income or net income per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2018. A comparison of the current presentation under ASC 606 to the prior presentation under ASC 605 is provided below:

The above table presents the U.S. GAAP financial measures of Revenue, Operating Expense and Operating Income as reported, as well as the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on these measures for the period presented. The impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on net income and net income per diluted share was not material.

Non-GAAP Results1

  • Revenues under ASC 605 increased 12% to $647.5 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $577.9 million in the third quarter of 2017.
  • Adjusted net income1 increased 22% to $246.6 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $202.8 million in the third quarter of 2017.
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share1 increased 23% to $2.68 in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $2.18 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2017.

Fiscal-Year 2018 Outlook:

“We are raising our full year 2018 guidance to reflect our third quarter results compared to our prior guidance. In the quarter we successfully offset approximately $20 million of unfavorable macro through solid execution across our businesses,” said Eric Dey, chief financial officer, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. “We expect the macro in the fourth quarter to be similar to the third quarter and expect to again offset this negative impact, through revenue over achievement in our businesses and expense control.”

For fiscal 2018, FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. updated financial guidance is as follows:

  • Total revenues including the adoption of ASC 606 to be between $2,390 million and $2,420 million;
  • Net income to be between $695 million and $705 million;
  • Net income per diluted share to be between $7.50 and $7.60;
  • Revenues excluding the impact of ASC 606 to be between $2,495 million and $2,525 million;
  • Adjusted net income to be between $960 million and $970 million; and
  • Adjusted net income per diluted share to be between $10.40 and $10.50.

FLEETCOR’s guidance assumptions for the remainder of 2018 are as follows:

  • Weighted fuel prices equal to $2.95 per gallon average in the U.S. for those businesses sensitive to the movement in the retail price of fuel for the balance of the year;
  • Market spreads equal to the 2017 average;
  • Foreign exchange rates equal to the seven-day average as of October 7, 2018;
  • Interest expense of $140 million;
  • Fully diluted shares outstanding of approximately 93 million shares;
  • An adjusted tax rate of 22% to 24%; and
  • No impact related to acquisitions or material new partnership agreements not already disclosed.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income is calculated as net income, adjusted to eliminate (a) non-cash stock based compensation expense related to share based compensation awards, (b) amortization of deferred financing costs, discounts and intangible assets, amortization of the premium recognized on the purchase of receivables, and our proportionate share of amortization of intangible assets at our equity method investment, (c) other non-recurring items, including the impact of the Tax Reform Act, impairment charges, restructuring costs, gains due to disposition of business, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the unauthorized access impact. We calculate adjusted net income to eliminate the effect of items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted net income is a supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. We believe it is useful to exclude non-cash stock based compensation expense from adjusted net income because non-cash equity grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time and stock based compensation expense is not a key measure of our core operating performance. We also believe that amortization expense can vary substantially from company to company and from period to period depending upon their financing and accounting methods, the fair value and average expected life of their acquired intangible assets, their capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired; therefore, we have excluded amortization expense from our adjusted net income. We also believe one-time non-recurring gains, losses, and impairment charges do not necessarily reflect how our investments and business are performing. Reconciliations of GAAP results to non-GAAP results are provided in the attached exhibit 1. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP product revenue organic growth calculation is provided in the attached exhibit 5. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP guidance is provided in the attached exhibit 6. Furthermore, a reconciliation of the impact of the Company’s adoption of the new revenue standard, ASC 606, is provided in exhibit 7, along with its impact on 2018 guidance in exhibit 6.

Management uses adjusted net income:

  • as measurement of operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis;
  • for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget;
  • to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; and
  • to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies.

We believe adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are key measures used by the Company and investors as supplemental measures to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in our industry. By providing these non-GAAP financial measures, together with reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors' understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing strategic initiatives.

1 Reflects the impact of the Company's adoption of ASC 606 and related cost capitalization guidance, which was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings in our consolidated balance sheet for the cumulative effective of applying the standard, which included costs incurred to obtain a contract, as well as presentation changes in our statements of income, including the classification of certain amounts previously classified as merchant commissions and processing expense net with revenues. As a result of the application of the modified retrospective transition method, the Company's prior period results within its Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q will not be restated to reflect ASC 606. For purposes of comparability, 2017 revenue has been recast in this exhibit and is reconciled to GAAP in Exhibit 5, which includes certain estimates and assumptions made by the Company for the impact of ASC 606 on 2017 revenues, as the Company did not apply a full retrospective adoption.
 

2 Reflects adjustments from previously disclosed amounts for the prior period to conform to current presentation.

 

3 Other includes telematics, maintenance, food, and transportation related businesses.

 

4 See Exhibit 5 for a reconciliation of Pro forma and Macro Adjusted revenue by product, non gaap measures, to the gaap equivalent.

 

5 Fuel Cards product category further refined to Fuel, to reflect different ways that fuel is paid for by our customers and as a result, reflects immaterial reclassifications from previously disclosed amounts for the prior period.

1 Reflects the impact of the Company's adoption of ASC 606 and related cost capitalization guidance, which was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in an adjustment to retained earnings in our consolidated balance sheet for the cumulative effective of applying the standard, which included costs incurred to obtain a contract, as well as presentation changes in our statements of income, including the classification of certain amounts previously classified as merchant commissions and processing expense net with revenues. As a result of the application of the modified retrospective transition method, the Company's prior period results within its Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q will not be restated to reflect ASC 606.
