Year-to-Date 2017 Segment Discussion
Net Revenues, Bookings, Net Income, and Cash Income changes by segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period of 2016 were as follows:
Q3 - 2017 % Change | YTD - 2017 % Change | ||||||||||||||||
Net Revenues | Bookings | Net Income | Cash Income | Net Revenues | Bookings | Net Income | Cash Income | ||||||||||
Learning A-Z | 12 | % | 10 | % | 17 | % | 13 | % | 15 | % | 9 | % | 16 | % | 6 | % | |
ExploreLearning | 16 | % | 18 | % | 26 | % | 24 | % | 18 | % | 18 | % | 31 | % | 35 | % | |
Voyager Sopris Learning | (8 | )% | (4 | )% | (3 | )% | — | % | (11 | )% | (15 | )% | (5 | )% | (19 | )% | |
Shared Services | 7 | % | (2 | )% | 6 | % | 9 | % | |||||||||
Cambium Learning Group, Inc. | 3 | % | 6 | % | 69 | % | 12 | % | 4 | % | — | % | 98 | % | 12 | % | |
Bookings increased slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to 2016. By segment:
• | Learning A-Z reported a 9% growth in Bookings for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to prior year. |
• | ExploreLearning reported an 18% growth in Bookings for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 versus prior year. This segment had double-digit growth for both the Reflex® math product and the Gizmos® math and science simulations. |
• | Voyager Sopris Learning reported a 15% Bookings decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 versus prior year, with a third quarter decline of 4% showing some improvement over first half results. The Bookings decline came primarily from the segment’s legacy print and transactional solutions, which are not the strategic focus of the segment, and were 21% lower than prior year. Bookings for the segment’s technology-enabled solutions declined 2%, falling short of Company expectations for growth this year with slow traction for the new Velocity® solution combined with an expected decline in many of the older technology offerings. LANGUAGE!Live®, the segment’s digital flagship solution for technology-enabled adolescent intervention, had strong growth of 23% year to date and 38% for the third quarter. |
• | In November 2017, in response to the lower-than-expected results at Voyager Sopris Learning, management completed restructuring activities to reduce its cost structure. The Company expects full-year restructuring costs to total $1.5 million, with severance expense of $0.3 million incurred in the third quarter and an additional $1.2 million expected in the fourth quarter, which will be excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income. The 2017 restructuring activities are expected to result in approximately $3.1 million of annualized savings at the Voyager Sopris Learning segment. A leaner cost base and a flatter management structure will provide this segment with flexibility, allowing Voyager Sopris Learning time to complete its transformation as it generates profits from declining legacy products while gaining traction on the fewer, more impactful educational solutions that are expected to drive top-line growth and margin expansion over time. |
2017 Outlook
Mr. Campbell concluded, “After a strong start in July, third quarter Bookings growth moderated to some degree but, importantly, we continue to expect to end the year with double-digit top line growth at both Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning. Voyager Sopris Learning has had a challenging year, and although we saw sequential improvement in the seasonally important third quarter, we now expect Bookings to decline by at least 15% in 2017 compared to 2016, which will likely put our company-wide Bookings below our previous outlook. We have taken substantive additional action to right-size this segment’s cost basis to maximize its profitability as it completes its transformation. The strong performance by our online subscription segments Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning is expected to drive expanded net income, increased Adjusted EBITDA, greater Cash Income profitability and higher cash flow generation over prior year.”
The Company expects 2017 Bookings growth at Learning A-Z to be, given fourth quarter Bookings trends to date, at least 10%, and 2017 Bookings growth at ExploreLearning to be at least 17%. Bookings for the Voyager Sopris Learning segment are expected to decline by at least 15% over prior year. Company-wide Bookings growth for full year 2017 is expected to range between 1% and 4%, lower than the Company’s previous outlook, driven largely by the lower than previously forecasted Bookings performance at the Voyager Sopris Learning segment.
3
The Company expects 2017 capital expenditures to be roughly $19 million, with expenditures for product development ranging between $16 million and $17 million and the remainder for general capital expenditures. Full-year 2017 Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income margins are expected to grow slightly, expanding up to two percentage points compared to 2016. Company-wide top-line growth, coupled with continued careful expense management, is expected to drive expansion in 2017 Cash Income, Adjusted EBITDA and cash flow generation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly named, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors because they reflect the underlying performance of the ongoing operations of the Company and provide investors with a view of the Company’s operations from management’s perspective. Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income remove significant restructuring, non-operational, or certain non-cash items from earnings. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income to monitor and evaluate the operating performance of the Company and as the basis to set and measure progress toward performance targets. Further, the Cash Income measure directly affects compensation for employees and executives. The Company generally uses these non-GAAP measures as measures of operating performance and not as measures of the Company’s liquidity. The Company’s presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual, non-operational, or non-cash items.
