HERNDON, Va., Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ePlus inc. (NASDAQ: PLUS), a leading provider of technology and financing solutions, today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.

Management Comment

"ePlus delivered strong third quarter financial results, driven by robust customer demand in our focus areas of digital transformation, hybrid workforce, cloud solutions, and security," said Mark Marron, president and chief executive officer of ePlus. "Consolidated net sales increased 26% year-over-year to $623.5 million, while diluted earnings per share rose nearly 37% to $1.34, reflecting the strong top line momentum and efficient expense management. The ePlus team once again executed at a high level, meeting our customers' evolving needs with cost-effective and innovative solutions. As our customers have prioritized their technology investments, we continue to invest in our teams and in our capabilities to expand our solutions portfolio and our market share."

Mr. Marron continued, "While supply chain constraints persist, we saw a gradual easing in availability of certain products during the third quarter, enabling us to fulfill a portion of our customer backlog and reduce our inventories sequentially compared to the fiscal second quarter. We remain focused on driving long-term growth, with emphasis on expanding our managed and annuity-quality services revenue while continuing to target high-growth opportunities in our focus markets."

Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Results

For the third quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the prior fiscal year third quarter ended December 31, 2021:

Consolidated net sales increased 26.0% to $623.5 million, from $494.8 million.

Technology segment net sales increased 28.3% to $611.8 million, from $477.0 million due to higher sales of product and services. Service revenues increased 7.9% to $67.5 million, from $62.5 million due to increases in managed services. Adjusted gross billings increased 29.7% to $888.6 million from $685.0 million. 

Financing segment net sales decreased 34.5% to $11.7 million, from $17.9 million due to lower portfolio earnings and less proceeds from sales of leased equipment. 

Consolidated gross profit increased 18.1% to $138.4 million, from $117.1 million. Consolidated gross margin was 22.2%, down from 23.7% last year due to lower product margin and lower service margins caused by increases in managed services costs and a change in our mix of services.

Operating expenses were $91.9 million, up 13.4% from $81.0 million last year, primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits, variable compensation stemming from higher gross profit, professional fees, software license and maintenance, travel expenses, and changes in allowance for credit losses. Our headcount at the end of the quarter was 1,745, up 191 from a year ago, including 25 employees from the Future Com acquisition that closed July 15, 2022. Of the 191 additional employees, 158 were customer-facing employees, including 101 professional services and technical support personnel due to demand for our services.

Consolidated operating income increased 28.7% to $46.5 million. During the quarter we had other income of $2.9 million, due to foreign currency transaction gain of $0.9 million and a $1.9 million related to our claim in a class action lawsuit received in December 2022.

Our effective tax rate for the quarter was 27.7%, higher than the prior year quarter of 26.4% due to a tax benefit from restricted stock in the prior year.

Net earnings increased 35.1% to $35.7 million.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 27.6% to $53.3 million.

Net earnings per common share-diluted was $1.34, compared with $0.98 in the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP earnings per common share-diluted was $1.38, compared with $1.10 last year. 

First Nine Months Fiscal Year 2023 Results

For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the prior fiscal year nine months ended December 31, 2021:

Consolidated net sales increased 15.0% to $1,575.5 million, from $1,369.5 million.

Technology segment net sales increased 16.6% to $1,532.0 million, from $1,313.6 million due to higher sales of product and services. Service revenues increased 9.4% to $195.7 million, from $179.0 million due to increases in professional services and managed services. Adjusted gross billings was $2,356.3 million, an increase of 18.9% from $1,982.2 million. 

Financing segment net sales decreased 22.1% to $43.5 million, from $55.9 million, due to lower portfolio earnings and less proceeds from sales of leased equipment.

Consolidated gross profit increased 11.4% to $385.2 million, from $345.6 million. Consolidated gross margin was 24.4%, lower than 25.2% last year, due to lower service margins partially offset by higher product margin.

Operating expenses were $261.5 million, up 12.3% from $232.8 million last year, primarily due to increases in variable compensation stemming from higher gross profit, salaries and benefits, professional fees, advertising and marketing, software license and maintenance, travel expenses, and changes in allowance for credit losses.

Consolidated operating income increased 9.7% to $123.7 million. During the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we incurred foreign currency transaction losses of $5.2 million, which was partially offset by $1.9 million related to our claim in a class action lawsuit.

Our effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2023 was 28.3%, higher than 27.7% in the corresponding period in fiscal 2022 due to foreign currency transaction losses incurred in lower tax jurisdictions.

Net earnings increased 6.3% to $86.5 million.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 9.0% to $141.9 million.

Net earnings per common share-diluted was $3.24, compared with $3.03 in the prior year. Non-GAAP net earnings per common share-diluted was $3.66, compared with $3.38 last year.

Balance Sheet Highlights

As of December 31, 2022, ePlus had cash and cash equivalents of $99.4 million, compared with $155.4 million as of March 31, 2022. Inventory, which represents equipment ordered by customers but not yet delivered, increased 57.9% to $244.8 million from March 31, 2022 due to ongoing projects with customers coupled with continued supply chain constraints; however, sequentially, inventory decreased 10.9%.

We included reconciliations below for the following non-GAAP financial measures: (i) Adjusted gross billings, (ii) Adjusted EBITDA, (iii) Segment Adjusted EBITDA, (iv) Non-GAAP: Net earnings and (v) Non-GAAP: Net earnings per common share - diluted.

We define Adjusted gross billings as our technology segment net sales calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted to exclude the costs incurred related to sales of third-party maintenance, software assurance and subscription/SaaS licenses, and services. 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted for the following: interest expense, depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, acquisition and integration expense, provision for income taxes, and other income (expense). Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted for interest expense, share based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, and depreciation and amortization. We consider the interest on notes payable from our financing segment and depreciation expense presented within cost of sales, which includes depreciation on assets financed as operating leases, to be operating expenses. As such, they are not included in the amounts added back to net earnings in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation.

Non-GAAP: Net earnings and Non-GAAP: Net earnings per common share – diluted are based on net earnings calculated in accordance with US GAAP, adjusted to exclude other income (expense), share based compensation, and acquisition related amortization expense, and the related tax effects.

Our use of non-GAAP information as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under US GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, might calculate Adjusted gross billings, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP: Net earnings and Non-GAAP: Net earnings per common share-diluted or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.
