Bright Horizons Family Solutions® Reports Third Quarter of 2015 Financial Results
BOSTON, November 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Bright Horizons Family Solutions® Inc. (NYSE: BFAM), a leading provider of high-quality child care, early education and other services designed to help employers and families better address the challenges of work and life, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2015 and confirmed and updated certain financial guidance for the full year 2015.
Third Quarter 2015 Highlights (compared to third quarter 2014):
• | Revenue increased 9% to $366 million |
• | GAAP income from operations increased 26% to $42 million |
• | Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations* increased 27% to $42 million |
• | Adjusted EBITDA* increased 17% to $65 million |
• | GAAP net income increased 34% to $21 million and GAAP earnings per common share increased 43% to $0.33 |
• | Non-GAAP adjusted net income* increased 24% to $27 million and adjusted earnings per common share* increased 34% to $0.43 |
"We are very pleased to report another strong quarter, with solid top line growth and expanding operating performance across all of our business lines," said David Lissy, Chief Executive Officer. "We are delighted to welcome 22 new early care and education centers to the Bright Horizons family this past quarter, and continue to be very excited by the expansion of our newer lines of business. Our continued growth and commitment to quality in all that we do positions us well to advance our mission to make an impact in the lives of those we serve around the world.”
“We also recently released the results of our second annual Modern Family Index, which uncovers the challenges working parents in America face as they try to meet the overwhelming demands of work and family responsibilities and also explores employers’ attitudes towards the value of working parents to their workforce,” continued Lissy. “The survey once again underscored the value of workplace cultures that place an emphasis on a healthy integration between work and life. Our growing client base in our back-up care and educational advisory services segments, and the continued expansion of our full service child care business, collectively demonstrate that employers who understand this and are ready to meet these challenges can benefit in the race to recruit and retain top talent in a tightening labor market.”
Third Quarter 2015 Results
Revenue increased $30.9 million, or 9%, in the third quarter of 2015 from the third quarter of 2014 on contributions from new and ramping full-service child care centers, average price increases of 3-4%, and expanded sales of back-up dependent care and educational advisory services, partially offset by the effects of foreign currency translation on our European business.
Income from operations was $41.7 million for the third quarter of 2015, an increase of $8.7 million, compared to $33.0 million in the same 2014 period, primarily due to a $12.5 million increase in gross profit, partially offset by increases in recurring selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in gross profit and income from operations reflects operating leverage from enrollment gains in mature and ramping centers, contributions from new child care centers, back-up dependent care and educational advisory clients that have been added since the third quarter of 2014, and strong cost management, partially offset by the costs incurred during the ramp-up of certain new lease/consortium centers opened during 2014 and 2015 and the effects of foreign currency translation on our European business. Net income was $20.6 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to net income of $15.4 million in the same 2014 period, an increase of $5.2 million on the expanded income from operations. Diluted earnings per common share was $0.33 compared to $0.23 in the third quarter of 2014.
In the third quarter of 2015, adjusted EBITDA increased $9.4 million, to $64.7 million, and adjusted income from operations increased $8.9 million, to $41.9 million, from the third quarter of 2014 due primarily to the expanded gross profit. Adjusted net income increased by $5.1 million, or 24%, to $26.5 million on the expanded income from operations. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share was $0.43 compared to $0.32 in the third quarter of 2014.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company operated 928 early care and education centers with the capacity to serve 106,500 children and families.
*Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, straight line rent expense, stock-based compensation expense, expenses related to secondary offerings, and expenses associated with completed acquisitions. Adjusted income from operations represents income from operations before expenses related to the completion of secondary offerings, and expenses associated with completed acquisitions. Adjusted net income represents net income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense, secondary offering expenses, expenses associated with completed acquisitions and the income tax provision (benefit) thereon. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share is a non-GAAP measure, calculated using adjusted net income. These non-GAAP measures are more fully described and are reconciled from the respective measures determined under GAAP in "Presentation of Non-GAAP Measures" and "Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations."

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes statements that express the Company's opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements." The Company's actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements, which can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "projects," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates" or "anticipates," or, in each case, their negatives or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They include statements regarding the Company's intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies, the industries in which we and our partners operate, and our 2015 financial guidance. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. The Company believes that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in the demand for child care and other dependent care services, including variation in enrollment trends and lower than expected demand from
employer sponsor clients; the possibility that acquisitions may disrupt our operations and expose us to additional risk; our ability to pass on our increased costs; changes in our relationships with employer sponsors; our substantial indebtedness and the terms of such indebtedness; our ability to withstand seasonal fluctuations in the demand for our services; significant competition within our industry; our ability to implement our growth strategies successfully; and other risks and uncertainties more fully described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 2, 2015, and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Presentation of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") throughout this press release, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements - adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share - which present operating results on a basis adjusted for certain items. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures as key performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance internally. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with useful information with respect to our historical operations. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace, and should not be considered superior to, the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. The use of the terms adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share are reconciled from the respective measures under GAAP in the attached table "Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations."
