SRCL - Stericycle Inc. Reports Results For the Third Quarter 2020

Stericycle Inc.

BANNOCKBURN, Ill., Nov. 05, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stericycle, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRCL) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Revenues for the quarter were $636.4 million, a decrease of 23.6% compared to $833.1 million in the third quarter of last year due to the impact of multiple divestitures and the COVID-19 pandemic.  Organic revenues declined 4.3% when excluding the impact of divestitures, foreign exchange rates, and changes in sorted office paper (“SOP”) pricing, primarily reflecting the impact of the pandemic.  Loss from operations was $55.8 million, compared to a loss from operations of $34.5 million in the third quarter of last year.  Net loss was $81.2 million, or $0.89 diluted loss per share, compared to a net loss of $59.2 million, or $0.65 diluted loss per share, in the third quarter of last year.  The year-over-year difference was related to a higher loss from operations of $21.3 million, primarily related to divestitures, and higher tax expense of $15.1 million, which were partially offset by lower interest expense of $12.2 million. Adjusted income from operations was $101.0 million, compared to $118.8 million in the third quarter of last year.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.68, compared to $0.80 in the 2019 comparable period.  Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $365.2 million, compared to $201.2 million in the same period in 2019. Free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $270.5 million, compared to $40.0 million in the same period in 2019.

KEY BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Cash flow from operations improved to $365.2 million and free cash flow improved to $270.5 million for the first nine months of 2020, compared to $201.2 million and $40.0 million, respectively, in 2019.

  • Net debt was reduced by approximately $135.5 million in the third quarter, decreasing total net debt to below $2.0 billion, the lowest net debt in the last five years.

  • Income from operations, normalized for divestitures and foreign exchange rates, improved $8.2 million in the third quarter, driven by operational efficiencies and cost reductions.

  • Regulated Waste and Compliance Services (“RWCS”) organic revenues grew 0.6%. Excluding the impact on maritime waste services from the pandemic, RWCS grew 1.9%.

  • The divestiture of the Argentina business was completed in the quarter, the seventh divestiture since January 2019 as the Company continued to streamline its portfolio.

“As we continue to manage through the COVID-19 pandemic volatility, Stericycle delivered strong third quarter results with significant year-over-year operating margin improvement and debt reduction,” said Cindy J. Miller, Chief Executive Officer.  “Our focus on quality of revenue improvements, disciplined cost management and operating efficiency is generating significant free cash flow.”

THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS –

U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Results

  • Revenues for the quarter were $636.4 million, compared to $833.1 million in the third quarter of last year. Of the $196.7 million year-over-year decline, the impact of divestitures and lower Secure Information Destruction (“SID”) revenues excluding SOP pricing was $198.6 million in the aggregate and $162.0 million and $36.6 million, respectively.
  • Loss from operations in the quarter was $55.8 million, compared to a loss from operations of $34.5 million in the third quarter of last year. The change was primarily due to divestitures, which included higher year-over-year divestiture losses of $20.9 million and decreased operating income of $8.6 million. The decline was partially offset by operational efficiencies and cost reductions of $8.2 million.
  • Net loss was $81.2 million, or $0.89 diluted loss per share, compared to a net loss of $59.2 million, or $0.65 diluted loss per share, in the third quarter of last year.  The year-over-year difference was related to a higher loss from operations of $21.3 million, primarily related to divestitures, and higher tax expense of $15.1 million, which were partially offset by lower interest expense of $12.2 million.
  • Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $365.2 million, compared to $201.2 million in the same period in 2019.  The year-over-year improvement of $164.0 million primarily includes:

    • lower payments for legal and professional fees, annual incentive compensation, and prepaid software totaling $50.5 million

    • lower accounts receivable of $26.6 million driven by collections exceeding revenues and collection process improvements

    • lower accounts payable of $17.4 million primarily driven by reduced costs

    • U.S. CARES Act net operating loss carryback refund of $48.0 million received in the third quarter

    • government relief tax-related payment deferrals of $22.4 million, roughly split between U.S. and international

    • advances received on executed service agreements of $19.2 million related to the Domestic Environmental Solutions divestiture in the second quarter

  • Cash paid for capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $94.7 million compared to $161.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by the timing of 2019 investments in the ERP and disciplined capital management throughout 2020.

Non-GAAP Results

  • RWCS organic revenues grew 0.6%. Excluding the impact on maritime waste services from the pandemic, RWCS grew 1.9%.  Organic revenues of SID, excluding the impact of SOP pricing, and Communication and Related Services (“CRS”) declined 16.8% and 2.9%, respectively, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Adjusted income from operations was $101.0 million, compared to $118.8 million in the third quarter of last year.  Excluding the impact of divestitures and foreign exchange rates of $12.9 million, adjusted income from operations declined $4.9 million. However, adjusted operating margin improved 160 basis points, primarily driven by divestitures and sustainable operating efficiencies, despite reduced revenues resulting from the pandemic.

  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.68, compared to $0.80 in the third quarter of last year. The year-over-year decline includes the impact of divestitures and foreign exchange rates of $0.12, higher adjusted tax rate impact of $0.07, and lower income from operations of $0.04. These factors were partially offset by lower interest expense of $0.11.

  • Free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $270.5 million, compared to $40.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.  The significant year-over-year improvement of $230.5 million was due to higher cash flow from operations and lower capital expenditures, as described above.

(1) Growth is the change in revenues excluding the impact of SOP pricing, divestitures and foreign exchange.
(2) The comparisons at constant currency rates (foreign exchange) reflect comparative local currency balances at prior period’s foreign exchange rates. Stericycle calculated these percentages by taking current period reported Revenues less the respective prior period reported Revenues, divided by the prior period reported Revenues, all at the respective prior period’s foreign exchange rates.  This measure provides information on the change in Revenues assuming that foreign currency exchange rates have not changed between the prior and the current period.  Management believes the use of this measure aids in the understanding of changes in Revenues without the impact of foreign currency.
(3) For the three months ended September 30, 2019, RWCS revenues include $7.4 million associated with the Argentina business which was divested in July 2020; $119.5 million associated with the Domestic Environmental Solutions business which was divested in April 2020; $6.3 million and $5.0 million, respectively, associated with Chile and Mexico operations, which were divested in 2019.
(4) For the three months ended September 30, 2019, CRS revenues include $23.8 million associated with North America telephone answering service (“TAS”) and retail pharmaceutical returns service which were divested in 2019.
(5) For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, RWCS revenues include $7.4 million associated with the Argentina business which was divested in July 2020; $233.6 million associated with the Domestic Environmental Solutions business which was divested in April 2020; $19.3 million and $14.0 million, respectively, associated with Chile and Mexico operations, which were divested in 2019.
(6) For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, CRS revenues include $75.7 million associated with North America TAS, retail pharmaceutical returns service, and U.K. (the “United Kingdom”) texting business which were divested in 2019.

(a) The Non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release are reconciled to the most comparable measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the schedules attached to this release.  Management believes the Non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures of Stericycle’s performance because they provide additional information about Stericycle’s operations and exclude certain adjusting items, allowing better evaluation of underlying business performance and better period-to-period comparability.  Additionally, the Company uses such Non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating business unit and management performance.  All Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the applicable U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation from, or a replacement for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to or calculated in the same manner as Non-GAAP financial measures published by other companies.

(b) Three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 exclude depreciation charges of $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively, that are included in Business Transformation.

(c) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is (Loss) Income from operations excluding certain adjusting items, Depreciation and Intangible Amortization.

(d) Under the Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Common Shareholders column, adjustments are shown net of tax in aggregate of $13.9 million and $23.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, based on applying the statutory tax rate for the jurisdictions in which the adjustment occurred or, by adjusting the tax effect to consider the impact of applying an annual effective tax rate on an interim basis.
