CHARLES RIVER ASSOCIATES (CRA) ANNOUNCES
THIRD QUARTER 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

Broad-Based Revenue Growth Drives Improved Results

 

BOSTON, October 24, 2013 — Charles River Associates (NASDAQ: CRAI), a worldwide leader in providing management, economic and financial consulting services, today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended September 28, 2013.

 

Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $74.4 million, compared with $65.9 million for the fiscal third quarter ended September 29, 2012. Non-GAAP revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $72.9 million, compared with $64.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $3.3 million, or $0.32 per diluted share. This compares with a net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 of $0.7 million, or $0.07 per share. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $3.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with $2.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

The Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $12.4 million, or 16.6% of revenues, compared with $5.4 million, or 8.2% of revenues, for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. On a non-GAAP basis, the Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $12.2 million, or 16.7% of revenues, compared with $9.6 million, or 14.8% of revenues, for the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

A complete reconciliation between revenue, net income/loss and net income/loss per diluted share, and the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, for the third quarters of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 is provided in the financial tables at the end of this release.

 

Management Comments

 

“We are pleased with the broad-based performance improvement across our portfolio during the third quarter of fiscal 2013,” said Paul Maleh, CRA’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Third quarter contributions from both Litigation/Regulatory and Management Consulting resulted in 13.8% sequential revenue growth and 12.8% year-over-year revenue growth, on a non-GAAP basis. Our practices delivered strong performance during the quarter, led by Antitrust & Competition

Economics, Auctions & Competitive Bidding, Finance, Intellectual Property, Marakon, and Transfer Pricing, and most practices benefitted from ongoing assignments and new projects. The improvement in project activity and increased utilization that began at the end of the second quarter of 2013 continued through the third quarter and resulted in companywide utilization of 78%.”

 

“We remain focused on leveraging our infrastructure. For the third quarter of fiscal 2013, non-GAAP SG&A expenses, after adjusting for commissions to non-employee experts, decreased to 17.6% of revenue compared with 21.4% for the third quarter of the last fiscal year. We believe there is opportunity to further improve margins as we grow our top line.”

 

Outlook

 

“Throughout most of 2013, we experienced healthy lead flow and strong project conversions, and we began to realize dividends from these activities during the third quarter. We expect this trend to continue across our Litigation/Regulatory and Management Consulting lines of business. We enter the final quarter of fiscal 2013 with an improved cost structure and remain encouraged by our prospects for generating broad-based, profitable growth and attractive margins,” Maleh concluded.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

In addition to reporting its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company has also provided in this release non-GAAP financial information.  The Company believes the use of non-GAAP measures in addition to GAAP measures is an additional useful method of evaluating its results of operations.  The Company believes that presenting its financial results excluding certain restructuring costs, certain non-cash expenses, and the results of the Company’s NeuCo subsidiary is important to investors and management because it is more indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating results and financial condition.  These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in conjunction with, but not as a substitute for, the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and the expected results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those expected results should be carefully evaluated.  The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.  Specifically, for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company has excluded NeuCo’s results, and for the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company has excluded certain restructuring costs and NeuCo’s results. Also, in calculating “Adjusted EBITDA,” the Company has excluded the following non-cash expenses:  depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expenses, and amortization of forgivable loans.

 

Statements in this press release concerning the future business, operating results and financial condition of the Company, and statements using the terms “believes,” “expects,” “should,” “prospects,” “remain encouraged,” “opportunities,” or similar expressions are “forward-looking” statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements are based upon management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties.  Information contained in these forward-looking statements is inherently uncertain, and actual performance and results may differ materially due to many important factors.  Such factors that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made by the Company include, among others, the Company’s restructuring costs and attributable annual cost savings, changes in the Company’s effective tax rate, share dilution from the Company’s stock-based compensation, dependence on key personnel, attracting, recruiting and retaining qualified consultants, dependence on outside experts, utilization rates, completing

acquisitions and factors related to its completed acquisitions, including integration of personnel, clients and offices, and unanticipated expenses and liabilities, the risk of impairment write downs to the Company’s intangible assets, including goodwill, if the Company’s enterprise value declines below certain levels, risks associated with acquisitions it may make in the future, risks inherent in international operations, the performance of NeuCo, changes in accounting standards, rules and regulations, changes in the law that affect the Company’s practice areas, management of new offices, the potential loss of clients, the ability of customers to terminate the Company’s engagements on short notice, dependence on the growth of the Company’s management consulting practice, the unpredictable nature of litigation-related projects, the ability of the Company to integrate successfully new consultants into its practice, the Company’s ability to collect on forgivable loans should any become due, general economic conditions, intense competition, risks inherent in litigation, and professional liability.  Further information on these and other potential factors that could affect the Company’s financial results is included in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievement.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update any of its forward-looking statements after the date of this press release.

(3) Approximately 130,000 common stock equivalents were excluded from the GAAP results because they were antidilutive in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 due to the net loss, but they were included in the non-GAAP results because they were dilutive based upon the net income.
