November 19, 2015

– Fourth Quarter Revenue of $79.3 million – GMV of $170.7 million - Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million

– Fiscal Year Revenue of $397.1 million – GMV of $799.0 million - Adjusted EBITDA of $33.1 million

- Long Term Commercial Growth Strategy Remains the Priority, LiquidityOne Platform Beta Testing Launched

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 19, 2015-- Liquidity Services (NASDAQ:LQDT; www.liquidityservices.com), a global solution provider in the reverse supply chain with the world’s largest marketplace for business surplus, today reported that gross merchandise volume (GMV) for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was $170.7 million, a decrease of 23.8% from the prior year’s comparable period. Revenue for the quarter was $79.3 million, adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation, acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, business realignment expenses, and gains or losses from business dispositions, was $1.9 million and adjusted net income was $2.0 million or $0.07 adjusted diluted earnings per share. Q4-FY15 results were within the company’s guidance range for both GMV and adjusted EBITDA and above the guidance range for adjusted EPS.

“Our focus remains on building the most innovative services and capabilities in the global reverse supply chain industry in response to what our customers want and need to improve their own performance,” said Bill Angrick, chairman and chief executive officer of Liquidity Services. “Our customers are playing an active role in the development and testing of our new LiquidityOne platform and the initial feedback is very positive. Our significant investment in delivering the next generation of cloud based marketplace, analytics and returns management solutions will transform how the world’s largest organizations capture value in their supply chain and leverages our unique insights from transacting over $6 billion in surplus goods. As our business undergoes this critical transformation, we are excited by the new opportunities and long-term value we are creating.”

Q4-FY15 results were led by our state and municipal government marketplace and our industrial capital assets marketplace which both experienced double digit growth driven by an increase in the number of sellers and transaction volume in these verticals. The company experienced a decline in the availability of supply in our consumer electronics vertical and unfavorable industry trends in our energy vertical which impacted pricing and transaction volume during the quarter. During the quarter, we also signed over 40 new commercial accounts and our registered buyer base and number of completed transactions grew 9% and 4%, respectively, over the prior year period. Q4-15 capped off a productive year serving multinational clients. Our Asia Pacific region grew over 100% annually as more international customers leveraged the superior service, scale, and results of our marketplace solution. Our state and municipal government marketplace also achieved record annual results with impressive growth in the U.S. and a successful expansion into Canada. We exited FY-15 in a strong financial position with $95.5 million in cash and a debt free balance sheet, not including the significant cash benefit from our recent sale of the Jacobs Trading business.

Comparative financial results reflect the re-set of our base business following the loss of our Department of Defense (DoD) rolling stock program, the removal of our Walmart-Jacobs Trading program, and ramp up of our LiquidityOne investment program. Our Q4-FY15 revenue and adjusted EBITDA decreased 33.0% and 79.3%, respectively, from the prior year’s comparable period, and adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased 50.3% and 46.1%, respectively, from the prior year’s comparable period. Net GAAP loss for Q4-15 was $43.7 million, which resulted in a $1.46 diluted loss per share based on 30.0 million fully diluted shares outstanding. The net loss included an impairment of goodwill of $51.2 million, based on the Company’s assessment that included the Company’s trading value during the quarter. The net loss also included an $8.0 million loss on the sale of the Jacobs Trading business on September 30, 2015. The Jacobs Trading business sale is expected to result in a $33.5 million cash benefit from prior year income taxes and a $7.0 million cash-tax benefit for 2015.

For FY-15, Liquidity Services reported revenue of $397.1 million, a decrease of 19.9% from the prior year’s comparable period, and adjusted EBITDA for FY-15 of $33.1 million, a decrease of 47.5% from the prior year’s comparable period. FY-15 GMV was $799.0 million, a decrease of 14.2% from the prior year’s comparable period. Net GAAP loss in FY-15 was $104.8 million or $3.50 diluted loss per share. Adjusted net income in FY-15 was $18.1 million or $0.60 adjusted diluted earnings per share based on 30.0 million fully diluted shares outstanding, a decrease of 44.1% and 41.7%, respectively, from the prior year’s comparable period.

FY-15 and Q4-15 adjusted net income and adjusted EPS benefitted from our effective tax rate benefit of 27.4% and 30.8%, respectively, which was lower due to the adverse effects of the goodwill impairments in Q1-15 and Q4-15.

Business Outlook

In the near term it remains difficult to forecast the sales and margins of our business, as our DoD business has seen significant changes in the volume and mix of property we handle which has reduced sales values and increased costs. Our new surplus contract with the DoD commenced operations in October and is still undergoing contract negotiations. We are also operating an extension of the wind-down period of our prior DoD contract which will maintain the pricing terms of that contract for those volumes. As we transition the contracts, the product mix and volume we receive and sell under each contract will include a mix of both the old and new surplus contracts during FY-16.

During the next 18 months our organization is responsible for maintaining the ‘as-is’ business while investing in the development of an integrated global business and marketplace platform. Our costs during this transition process will be elevated and we will also face a drag on productivity as we teach and implement new ways of doing business. We will have uneven periods of financial performance as we execute our strategy. However, what will emerge will be a much more scalable and capable organization that is able to focus entirely on growth activities in the global reverse supply chain.

Our FY-16 outlook remains cautious due to the changing mix and volume of supply in our DoD and commercial business, in part due to lower commodity prices and macro weakness in the energy and industrial sectors. While we anticipate a benefit to earnings in FY-16 compared to FY-15 from the sale of the Jacobs Trading business, client engagements and the mix of property received under select retail client programs are unpredictable. We also plan to further allocate management time and resources to accomplish our LiquidityOne transformation program, which may result in reduced productivity and growth that is difficult to forecast. We anticipate incremental spending in Q1-16 for LiquidityOne to be approximately $1 million to $2 million, with project spending levels varying quarterly.

In the longer term, we expect our business to benefit from: (i) innovative new service capabilities and more efficient business operations from our LiquidityOne investment program; (ii) improved monetization of our buyer base through the deployment of our new integrated marketplace system and data warehouse; (iii) increased outsourcing of reverse supply chain activities in response to our new model and the rise of e-commerce and sustainability programs; and (iv) increased brand recognition as a market leader due to our proven track record, innovative scalable solutions and the ability to make a strategic impact in the reverse supply chain.

The following forward-looking statements reflect trends and assumptions for Q1-16:

 
(i) increased investment spending under our LiquidityOne Transformation initiative;
(ii) increased costs in our DoD business which commenced operation of our new surplus contract;
(iii) steady results and year-over-year growth from our state and local government sector marketplace;
(iv) lower than average sales prices and margins realized in our energy marketplace;
(v) variability in the timing of large asset sales in our commercial capital assets marketplaces related to both underwritten and consignment programs;
(vi) lower volume in our retail goods marketplaces, including from the disposition of Jacobs Trading; and
(vii) soft commodity prices affecting our Scrap business.
 

GMV – We expect GMV for Q1-16 to range from $140 million to $160 million.

Adjusted EBITDA –We expect Adjusted EBITDA for Q1-16 to range from ($2.0) million to $2.0 million.

Adjusted Diluted EPS – We estimate Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share for Q1-16 to range from ($0.09) to zero. This guidance assumes that we have an average fully diluted number of shares outstanding for the quarter of 30.1 million and that we will not repurchase shares with the approximately $5.1 million yet to be expended under the share repurchase program.

Our first quarter guidance adjusts EBITDA and Diluted EPS for stock based compensation costs, which we estimate to be approximately $3.5 million to $4.0 million. These stock based compensation costs are consistent with fiscal year 2015.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to net income (loss) plus interest and other expense, net; provision (benefit) for income taxes; amortization of contract intangibles; and depreciation and amortization. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA differs from EBITDA because we further adjust EBITDA for stock-based compensation, acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, business realignment expenses, and gains or losses from business dispositions.

Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to net income (loss) plus tax effected stock compensation expense, amortization of contract-related intangible assets associated with the Jacobs Trading acquisition, acquisition costs including changes in earn out estimates, and impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets. For 2015, the tax rate used to tax effect these items is our current rate of 27.4%. Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share are determined using Adjusted Net Income.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and prospects for the future. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: (a) as measurements of operating performance because they assist us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as they do not reflect the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations; (b) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget; (c) to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; (d) to evaluate the effectiveness of our operational strategies; and (e) to evaluate our capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand our business.

We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our core operating measures. In addition, because we have historically reported certain non-GAAP measures to investors, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in our financial reporting. These measures should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. A reconciliation of all historical non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, may be found in the financial tables included in this press release.

Supplemental Operating Data

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain supplemental operating data as a measure of certain components of operating performance. We review GMV because it provides a measure of the volume of goods being sold in our marketplaces and thus the activity of those marketplaces. GMV and our other supplemental operating data, including registered buyers, auction participants and completed transactions, also provide a means to evaluate the effectiveness of investments that we have made and continue to make in the areas of customer support, value-added services, product development, sales and marketing and operations. Therefore, we believe this supplemental operating data provides useful information to both management and investors. In addition, because we have historically reported certain supplemental operating data to investors, we believe the inclusion of this supplemental operating data provides consistency in our financial reporting. This data should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
