FULL-YEAR REVENUE GROWTH OF 4.4%; SAME-UNIT GROWTH OF 0.8%

2012 DILUTED EPS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS OF $0.63 VS. $0.58 FOR PRIOR YEAR

Cleveland, Ohio (February 13, 2013)—CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE: CBZ) today announced results for the fourth-quarter and year-ended December 31, 2012.

CBIZ reported revenue of $172.9 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $10.0 million, or 6.1%, over the $162.9 million reported for the fourth quarter of 2011. Same-unit revenue increased by $4.1 million, or 2.5% for the fourth quarter 2012, compared to the same period a year ago, with core Financial Services and Employee Services segments recording 2.6% same-unit growth in the fourth quarter. Newly acquired operations contributed $5.9 million to revenue in the 2012 fourth quarter compared to the same period a year ago. Income from continuing operations was $1.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $1.2 million, or ($0.02) per diluted share reported in the fourth quarter of 2011. Included in the fourth quarter results is a favorable legal settlement reflected in other income that impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.02.

For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, CBIZ reported total revenue of $766.1 million, an increase of $32.3 million or 4.4%, compared to $733.8 million for the prior year. Same-unit revenue increased by $5.7 million, or 0.8% for the full year 2012, compared to the same period a year ago. Newly acquired operations contributed $26.6 million to revenue during 2012. Income from continuing operations was $31.1 million, or $0.63 per diluted share for the full-year 2012, compared to $28.6 million, or $0.58 per diluted share for the prior year. Included in full year earnings is a gain on the 2011 sale of the Company’s wealth management business that impacted diluted earnings per share by $0.03 in 2012, and $0.02 in 2011.

The outstanding balance of the Company’s $275.0 million unsecured bank line of credit at December 31, 2012, was $208.9 million compared with a balance of $145.0 million at December 31, 2011. During 2012, the Company used $106.5 million to fund acquisition-related payments. The Company repurchased 874 thousand shares of its common stock at a cost of $5.0 million during 2012.


Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, which includes certain non-cash charges and credits to income from continuing operations, was $1.22 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared with $1.10 per diluted share a year ago. A schedule which reconciles non-GAAP earnings per diluted share with GAAP earnings per diluted share is attached. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2012, was $85.3 million compared to $81.7 million for the year ended 2011.

Steven L. Gerard, CBIZ Chairman and CEO stated, “Throughout 2012, we have seen an improving environment for our business, and this trend continued in the fourth quarter, with all of our core businesses reporting same-unit revenue growth. During 2012, we continued to make investments in each of our businesses that are expected to enhance our future growth prospects. In addition, we were very active with our acquisition program in all segments of our business during 2012, having closed five acquisitions in the fourth quarter and ten acquisitions during the full year. Going into 2013, we expect stronger growth in revenue and earnings per share than we achieved in 2012, while continuing our strategic acquisition and investment program,” concluded Mr. Gerard.

Outlook for 2013: In 2013 the Company expects total revenue to grow within a range of 7% - 9% and diluted earnings per share to grow within a range of 12% - 15%, compared with the $0.58 per diluted share in 2012 normalized to exclude the impact of the non-recurring gain on sale in the first quarter and the favorable impact of the legal settlement in the fourth quarter of 2012. Cash flow will continue to be positive and Adjusted EBITDA for 2013 is projected to increase within a range of 12% - 14% over the $85.3 million reported for 2012.

(3) The Company believes Non-GAAP earnings and Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share more clearly illustrate the impact of certain non-cash charges and credits to “income (loss) from continuing operations” and are a useful measure for the Company and its analysts. Non-GAAP earnings is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding: depreciation and amortization, non-cash interest expense, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration related to prior acquisitions. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share is calculated by dividing Non-GAAP earnings by the number of weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the period indicated. Non-GAAP earnings and Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share should not be regarded as a replacement or alternative to any measurement of performance under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
(4) Capital spending was $4.2 million and $4.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(2) Ratio is notes payable, convertible notes and bank debt divided by total stockholders’ equity.
(3) DSO is provided for continuing operations and represents accounts receivable (before the allowance for doubtful accounts) and unbilled revenue (net of realization adjustments) at the end of the period, divided by trailing twelve month daily revenue. The Company has included DSO data because such data is commonly used as a performance measure by analysts and investors and as a measure of the Company’s ability to collect on receivables in a timely manner. DSO should not be regarded as an alternative or replacement to any measurement of performance under generally accepted accounting principles.
