SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 8, 2014--WageWorks, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: WAGE), a leader in administering Consumer-Directed Benefits (CDBs), which empower employees to save money on taxes while also providing corporate tax advantages for employers, today announced the Company's financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

“Our first quarter was a strong start to 2014. Our results are directly attributable to our record 2013 selling season, strong client renewal period, successful integration and performance of our portfolio purchases, and our relationships with channel partners and private exchanges. We are excited about our new agreement with Liazon Corporation to be their national administration partner for Consumer Directed Benefits in their private exchanges throughout the United States. We are very well positioned in the marketplace, and I am confident that we will continue to execute on our business and growth strategies throughout the remainder of the year and beyond,” said Joe Jackson, Chief Executive Officer of WageWorks.

For the first quarter, WageWorks reported total revenue of $62.6 million, compared to $56.1 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 12 percent. Healthcare revenue was $40.0 million, compared to $35.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 12 percent. Commuter revenue was $16.0 million, compared to $14.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 9 percent. Other revenue was $6.6 million, compared to $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 16 percent.

GAAP operating income was $10.9 million for the first quarter of 2014, compared to GAAP operating income of $7.5 million for the first quarter of 2013. On a non-GAAP basis, first quarter of 2014 operating income was $15.2 million, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $11.2 million for the first quarter of 2013.

GAAP net income was $6.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2014, compared to GAAP net income of $4.6 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013.


On a non-GAAP net income basis, first quarter of 2014 net income was $9.0 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $6.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2013 and 2014 excludes expenses related to stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangibles, contingent consideration expense and the related tax impact of these items.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $18.1 million for the first quarter of 2014, a 29 percent increase compared to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $14.0 million for the first quarter of 2013.

The reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures for the first quarter 2014 and 2013 is detailed in the tables provided in this press release.

As of March 31, 2014, WageWorks had cash and cash equivalents totaling $353.3 million. This compares to cash and cash equivalents totaling $360.0 million as of December 31, 2013.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company provides non-GAAP financial measure of net income, operating income, adjusted EBITDA and diluted earnings per share. By providing information about both the overall GAAP financial performance and the non-GAAP measures that focus on what management believes to be its ongoing business operations, the Company believes that the additional information enhances investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s business. The Company’s management believes it is useful for itself and investors to review, as applicable, both GAAP information that includes stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangibles, contingent consideration gain and expense and the related tax impact of all of these items on the provision for income taxes, and the non-GAAP measures that exclude such information in order to assess the performance of the Company’s business for planning and forecasting in subsequent periods. The Company’s management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Whenever the Company uses such a non-GAAP financial measure, it provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as detailed in the tables provided in this press release. Investors are also encouraged to review the Company’s GAAP financial statements as reported in its SEC filings.
