Management Remarks

 

Shmuel Jonas, IDT’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our financial results in the fourth quarter were consistent with recent trends. Our core telecom offerings continued to face revenue and margin pressure stemming in significant part from deregulation of the Mexico telecom market. The impact was mitigated by our continued focus on reducing SG&A expense.”

 

“Operationally, our BOSS Revolution international money transfer business, Net2Phone’s unified communications as a service offerings and our National Retail Solutions initiative are all meeting or beating expectations. As they achieve scale, each of these initiatives has the potential to become a significant contributor to IDT’s bottom line. In addition, we beta launched two new products after the quarter close -- PicuP, a telephony solution for very small businesses and, just two weeks ago, the next generation of the BOSS Revolution app with free peer-to-peer calling and messaging. Both are getting rave reviews. Across the IDT enterprise, we are intensifying our commitment to developing, deploying, investing and supporting innovative growth initiatives,” Mr. Jonas added.

4Q16 AND FY 2016 OPERATING RESULTS BY SEGMENT

 

(Results are for 4Q16 unless otherwise noted).

 

TPS

 

IDT’s Telecom Platform Services (TPS) segment accounted for 99.2% of IDT’s revenue in 4Q16 and 98.8% in FY 2016. TPS markets and distributes multiple communications and payment services across four broad business verticals: Retail Communications, Wholesale Carrier Services, Payment Services and Hosted Platform Solutions.

 

TPS’ quarterly minutes of use (MOU) were 7.08 billion, a decrease from 7.47 billion (-5.1%) in 4Q15 and an increase from 6.97 billion (+1.6%) in 3Q16. The year over year decrease reflects declines in MOU in Retail Communications including both BOSS Revolution and traditional calling cards, and in Wholesale Carrier Services, while the sequential increase was due mostly to 4Q16 having 92 days compared to 90 in the prior quarter. For FY 2016, TPS’s MOU were 28.25 billion, a decrease from 29.31 billion (-3.6%) in FY 2015, primarily due to a decrease in Retail Communications MOU.

 

 

TPS’ revenue was $365.1 million, a decrease from $400.8 million (-8.9%) in the year ago quarter and an increase from $350.4 million (+4.2%) in the prior quarter. The sequential quarterly increase was driven by the greater number of days in the fourth quarter and an increase in Wholesale Carrier Services’ revenue. For FY 2016, TPS’ revenue was $1,477.9 million, a decrease from $1,572.7 million (-6.0%) in FY 2015.

 

TPS Revenue by Product Category (in millions)			4Q16				3Q16				4Q15				4Q16-4Q15 % Change in Revenue				4Q16 Revenue as a % of Total TPS Revenue
Retail Communications		$	165.3			$	164.5			$	185.0				(10.6	)%			45.3	%
Wholesale Carrier Services		$	136.5			$	123.3			$	151.5				(9.9	)%			37.4	%
Payment Services		$	55.5			$	55.0			$	55.7				(0.5	)%			15.2	%
Hosted Platform Solutions		$	7.8			$	7.6			$	8.6				(9.9	)%			2.1	%
Total TPS		$	365.1			$	350.4			$	400.8				(8.9	)%			100.0	%

 

TPS Revenue by Product Category (in millions)		FY 2016				FY 2015				FY16-FY15 % Change in Revenue				FY16 Revenue as a % of Total TPS Revenue
Retail Communications		$	672.2			$	735.0				(8.6	)%			45.5	%
Wholesale Carrier Services		$	555.1			$	590.9				(6.1	)%			37.6	%
Payment Services		$	219.2			$	208.3				+5.2	%			14.8	%
Hosted Platform Solutions		$	31.4			$	38.5				(18.5	)%			2.1	%
Total TPS		$	1,477.9			$	1,572.7				(6.0	)%			100.0	%

 

Retail Communications revenue was $165.3 million in 4Q16, a decrease from $185.0 million (-10.6%) in the year ago quarter, due to declines in our BOSS Revolution PIN-less service’s sales on the US - Mexico corridor and in sales of our legacy traditional card products both in the U.S. and overseas. For FY 2016, Retail Communications revenue totaled $672.2 million, a decrease from $735.0 million (-8.6%) in FY 2015.

 

Wholesale Carrier Services’ revenue decreased to $136.5 million from $151.5 million (-9.9%) in 4Q15. For the full year, Wholesale Carrier Services’ revenue decreased to $555.1 million from $590.9 million (-6.1%) in FY 2015. The quarterly and full year decreases resulted primarily from the termination of a Latin American pricing opportunity pertaining to local currency exchange rate disparities coupled with declining sales of traditional carrier services.

 

Payment Services’ revenue decreased to $55.5 million from $55.7 million (-0.5%). The decrease reflected declines in revenue from IDT’s Gibraltar-based bank and in sales of International Mobile Top-Up (IMTU) products, partially offset by a 52% increase in revenue from the BOSS Revolution international money transfer business. FY 2016 Payment Services’ revenue increased to $219.2 million from $208.3 million (+5.2%) in FY 2015. The full year increase was driven primarily by continued growth of both IMTU products and international money transfer sales.

 

Hosted Platform Solutions’ revenue decreased to $7.8 million from $8.6 million (-9.9%) while full year revenue declined to $31.4 million from $38.5 million (-18.5%) for FY 2015. The decreases were in-line with expectations as they reflected lower rates incorporated into contract renewals with key cable telephony customers.

 

TPS’ direct cost of revenue as a percentage of TPS’ revenue was 84.4% in 4Q16, an increase of 10 basis points year over year and an increase of 100 basis points sequentially. For FY 2016, TPS’ direct cost of revenue was 84.1% of TPS’ revenue – unchanged from the prior year.

 

 

TPS’ SG&A expense decreased to $44.9 million from $49.4 million (-8.9%) in 4Q15 and from $46.7 million (-3.8%) in 3Q16. The year over year and sequential decreases primarily reflect reduced employee compensation and legal costs. Expressed as a percentage of TPS’ revenue, TPS’ 4Q16 SG&A remained at 12.3% compared to the year ago quarter and dropped 100 basis points compared to the prior quarter. TPS’ SG&A expense in FY 2016 decreased to $186.6 million from $199.6 million (-6.5%) in FY 2015, reflecting reduced employee headcount and compensation expense, marketing and advertising costs, and call center expense. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense in FY 2016 decreased 10 basis points to 12.6% compared to FY 2015.

 

TPS’ depreciation and amortization expense increased to $4.5 million from $4.3 million (+4.1%) in 4Q15 and decreased from $4.9 million (-8.5%) in 3Q16. Depreciation increased year-over-year due to higher levels of capital expenditures in recent periods to support investments in new products, including Net2Phone’s ‘unified communications as a service’ offerings, National Retail Solutions and the new BOSS Revolution calling app with messaging. For FY 2016, depreciation and amortization expense increased to $18.5 million from $16.2 million (+14.7%) in FY 2015 for the same reason.

 

TPS’ income from operations increased to $8.9 million from $8.8 million (+0.7%) in 4Q15 and from $6.3 million (+40.3%) in 3Q16. For FY 2016, TPS’ income from operations totaled $31.2 million compared to $27.0 million (+15.8%) in FY 2015. Income from operations in 4Q16 and FY 2016 include severance expense of $6.0 million (compared to $0.2 million in both 4Q15 and 3Q16) and a gain of $7.5 million on the sale of IDT’s Gibraltar based bank’s member interest in Visa Europe. In FY 2015, TPS’ income from operations also included $7.7 million in severance expense.

 

TPS’ Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $11.9 million from $13.4 million (-11.3%) in 4Q15 and increased from $11.5 million (+3.4%) in 3Q16. For FY 2016, Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $48.8 million from $50.8 million (-3.9%) in FY 2015.

 

CPS

 

Consumer Phone Services (CPS) sells local and long distance services domestically in 11 states, marketed under the brand name IDT America. CPS has been in harvest mode since fiscal 2006 - maximizing revenue from current customers while maintaining SG&A and other expenses at the minimum levels essential to operate the business. Results this quarter and fiscal year conformed to expectations.

 

CPS’ revenue decreased to $1.6 million from $2.0 million (-19.2%) in 4Q15 and from $1.7 million (-5.0%) in the prior quarter. FY 2016 revenue decreased to $6.9 million from $8.6 million (-20.3%) in FY 2015. CPS’ income from operations decreased to $0.2 million from $0.3 million (-12.3%) in 4Q15 and $0.4 million (-31.7%) in 3Q16. Income from operations in FY 2016 was $1.2 million compared to $1.3 million (-3.2%) in FY 2015.

 

ALL OTHER

 

All Other includes IDT’s real estate holdings comprised of its public garage in Newark and commercial properties in Newark, Piscataway and Jerusalem, as well as other small businesses and investments.

 

All Other previously included Zedge, a platform and mobile app centered on self-expression, and Fabrix, a software development company specializing in cloud-based video storage and processing. Zedge was spun off from IDT to IDT’s shareholders on June 1, 2016. Because the disposition of Zedge did not meet the criteria to be reported as a discontinued operation, Zedge’s assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows were not reclassified. Accordingly, 4Q16 and FY 2016 results of operations for All Other include only one month and ten months of Zedge activity, respectively.

 

 

Fabrix was included in All Other until it was sold and deconsolidated in October 2014. In FY 2015, All Other includes two months of Fabrix’ results of operations compared to none in FY 2016 and none in the fourth quarter of either fiscal year.

 

All Other’s revenue was $1.4 million, a decrease from $3.0 million (-54.5%) in 4Q15. Zedge contributed revenue of $0.8 million in 4Q16 and $2.4 million in 4Q15. All Other’s FY 2016 revenue was $11.5 million compared to $15.4 million (-25.5%) in FY 2015. Zedge contributed $9.5 million and $9.1 million of All Other’s revenue in FY 2016 and FY 2015, respectively. In FY 2015, Fabrix contributed revenue of $4.2 million.

 

All Other’s income from operations in 4Q16 was $86 thousand compared to $449 thousand in 4Q15. Zedge generated a loss from operations of $32 thousand in 4Q16 and income from operations of $270 thousand in the year ago quarter. All Other’s income from operations was $4.2 million in FY 2016 compared $78.0 million in FY 2015. Zedge contributed $2.3 million to income from operations in FY 2016 and $100 thousand in FY 2015. Fabrix’s income from operations in FY 2015 was $948 thousand. All Other’s results also included a gain of $1.1 million in FY 2016 and $76.9 million in FY 2015 on the sale of IDT’s interest in Fabrix.

 

OTHER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

 

Consolidated results for all periods presented include corporate overhead. In 4Q16, corporate G&A expense increased to $2.7 million from $2.3 million (+15.9%) in the year ago quarter and decreased from $2.8 million (-5.0%) in the prior quarter. Corporate G&A expense was $10.1 million in FY 2016 compared to $10.9 million (-7.8%) in FY 2015.

 

4Q16 net income attributable to IDT increased to $11.0 million from $1.3 million in the year ago quarter and from $4.2 million in 3Q16. Net income attributable to IDT in 4Q16 included a $2.7 million gain on foreign currency transactions and a benefit from income taxes of $2.1 million. For 4Q15, net income attributable to IDT was $1.3 million including a foreign currency transaction loss of $0.9 million and a provision for income taxes of $3.8 million.

FY 2016 net income attributable to IDT was $23.5 million including a $1.0 million gain on foreign currency transactions and a provision for income taxes of $4.1 million. In FY 2015, net income attributable to IDT was $84.5 million including a $1.7 million loss on foreign currency transactions and a provision for income taxes of $6.1 million. The full year decrease primarily reflects the $76.9 million gain on the sale of IDT’s interest in Fabrix in FY 2015.

 

At July 31, 2016, IDT had $162.5 million in unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Additionally, at that date, IDT reported $98.8 million in current restricted cash and cash equivalents, which included $98.5 million of customer deposits held by IDT’s Gibraltar-based bank.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2016 and 2015

 

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), IDT also disclosed, for the fourth quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, or EPS, which are non-GAAP measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

 

IDT’s measure of Adjusted EBITDA consists of revenues less direct cost of revenues, selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense. Another way of calculating Adjusted EBITDA is to start with income from operations, add depreciation and amortization, severance expense, and other operating losses, and subtract the gain on the sale of member interest in Visa Europe Ltd. and the gain on the sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd.

 

IDT’s measure of non-GAAP net income starts with net income in accordance with GAAP and adds depreciation and amortization, severance expense, stock-based compensation, and other operating losses, and subtracts the gain on the sale of member interest in Visa Europe Ltd., the gain on the sale of interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd. and the tax benefit from group relief in the United Kingdom.

 

IDT’s measure of non-GAAP diluted EPS is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by the diluted weighted-average shares.

 

These additions and subtractions are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 periods.

 

Management believes that IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and non-routine gains that may not be indicative of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as a relevant indicator of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision making. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS to evaluate operating performance in relation to IDT’s competitors. Disclosure of these financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, IDT has historically reported similar financial measures and believes such measures are commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance, therefore the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting at this time.

 

Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the GAAP measures income (loss) from operations and net income, on a segment and/or consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to the segments’ and IDT's historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.

 

While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. IDT’s operating results exclusive of depreciation and amortization charges are useful indicators of its current performance.

 

Severance expense is also excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS. Severance expense is reflective of decisions made by management in each period regarding the aspects of IDT’s and its segments’ businesses to be focused on in light of changing market realities and other factors. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of IDT’s core and continuing operations.

 

The gains on the sale of member interest in Visa Europe Ltd. and the sale of the interest in Fabrix Systems Ltd., and the other operating losses, which are components of income from operations, are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS. From time-to-time, IDT may select and incubate promising early stage businesses outside of its core business for eventual sale or spin-off to its stockholders. In addition, IDT will dispose of certain assets or incur costs related to legal matters. However, such gains or losses do not occur each quarter nor are they part of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results.

 

The other calculation of Adjusted EBITDA consists of revenues less direct cost of revenues, selling, general and administrative expense and research and development expense. As the other excluded items are not reflected in this calculation, they are excluded automatically and there is no need to make additional adjustments. This calculation results in the same Adjusted EBITDA amount and its utility and significance is as explained above.

 

 

Stock-based compensation recognized by IDT and other companies may not be comparable because of the variety of types of awards as well as the various valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from IDT’s calculation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results per share of IDT’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for IDT for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance.

 

The tax benefit from group relief in the United Kingdom is excluded from IDT’s calculation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS because it only indirectly related to the current results of IDT’s core operations. Group relief is only available after all prior net operating losses are utilized by one entity and that entity is able to utilize the current period losses of a related entity. Group relief is not anticipated to be ongoing and the related entities are expected to have a valuation allowance in future periods.

 

Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income (loss) from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income, basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, IDT’s measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

 

Following are reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which are, (a) for Adjusted EBITDA, income (loss) from operations for IDT’s reportable segments and net income for IDT on a consolidated basis, (b) for non-GAAP net income, net income and, (c) for non-GAAP EPS, basic and diluted earnings per share.
