RBR for the Healthcare segment increased 18% year-over-year for third quarter 2015 with 13% organic growth for the period. Overall RBR growth for the segment was driven by increased demand in all areas of healthcare consulting and business process management services. Segment operating profit margin increased to 32% compared to 30% in the same period last year, driven by better operating leverage within the segment.
The Energy segment RBR for third quarter 2015 increased 5% compared to third quarter 2014, all of which represented organic growth. The RBR growth in the quarter was partially driven by an increase in market intelligence and strategy and operations engagements, reflecting the benefits of increased client penetration from the segment’s key client accounts program. Third quarter 2015 segment operating profit was down 12% compared to the same period last year, as higher RBR was offset by higher compensation and benefits expenses associated with senior hiring to expand the segment’s capabilities.
2
The Disputes, Investigations & Economics segment RBR results for third quarter 2015 were steady compared to the same period of the prior year. Performance was driven by continued demand for our global construction expertise, international arbitration, financial services disputes, healthcare disputes and commercial litigation consulting, offset by lower contributions from forensic investigations and economic consulting engagements. Segment operating profit increased 4% in third quarter 2015 compared to the same period of 2014, driven by better alignment of resources and higher utilization.
The Financial, Risk & Compliance segment RBR for third quarter 2015 decreased 24% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting the continued lower volume of work from an ongoing large financial institution client due to the extension of a regulatory deadline. Third quarter 2015 segment operating profit was down 40% year-over-year largely as a result of lower RBR and our decision to maintain capabilities in the segment based on expected future market demand.
Cash Flow
Free cash flow was $18.2 million for third quarter 2015 compared to $24.0 million for the same period in 2014, reflecting the impact of increased capital investment spending. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) was 81 days as of September 30, 2015, up 4 days compared to September 30, 2014.
Bank debt was $146.8 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $158.0 million at September 30, 2014. Leverage (bank debt divided by trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA) was 1.22 at September 30, 2015 compared to 1.36 at September 30, 2014.
Navigant repurchased 399,200 shares of common stock during third quarter 2015 at an aggregate cost of $6.1 million and an average cost of $15.35 per share. As of September 30, 2015, $93.9 million remained on the Company’s share repurchase authorization.
2015 Outlook
Navigant updated its 2015 financial outlook. Full year 2015 RBR is now expected to range between $822.5 and $837.5 million while 2015 total revenues are estimated to be between $907.5 and $922.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2015 is now expected to range between $115.0 and $120.0 million and adjusted EPS for full year 2015 is estimated to be between $0.96 and $1.01.
Non-GAAP Financial Information and Key Operating Metrics
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) are included in the financial schedules attached to this press release.

As used in this press release, organic growth represents RBR adjusted to include the impact of acquisitions as if the Company owned them from the beginning of each comparable period and adjusted to exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Our definition of organic growth may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics at other companies. Management believes that organic growth reflects the growth of our existing business and is, therefore, useful in analyzing the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Below are the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to GAAP financial measures to assess the Company’s operations and financial results and believes they are useful indicators of operating performance and the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations that are available for interest, debt service, taxes and capital expenditures. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies.

Footnotes
(1) | Per share data may not sum due to rounding. |
(2) | For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss. For those periods, the basic weighted average common shares outstanding equals the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating U.S. GAAP earnings per share because potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive. |
(3) | All non-GAAP financial measures are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. |
(4) | EBITDA is earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of severance expense and other operating costs (benefit). Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share exclude the net income (loss) and per share net income (loss) impact of discontinued operations, severance expense and other operating costs (benefit). Severance expense and other operating costs (benefit) are not considered to be non-recurring, infrequent or unusual to our business. Management believes that these measures provide investors with enhanced comparability of the Company’s results of operations across periods. |
(5) | Effective income tax expense (benefit) has been determined based on specific tax jurisdiction. |
(6) | A portion of the deferred contingent acquisition liability adjustment for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was non-taxable in nature. |
(7) | On May 15, 2015, we executed an Amendment to Merger Agreement with the Cymetrix Sellers, establishing a definitive amount for the obligation and eliminating the contingent aspect of the Cymetrix acquisition liability. As a result of this agreement, the Company will no longer record an interest expense for imputed interest resulting from the contingent aspect of the acquisition liability. Based on this change, the Company re-evaluated the need for a deferred tax liability associated with expected non-deductible imputed interest and recorded an $826 thousand benefit to reverse the remaining tax impact in the quarter ended June 30, 2015. |
(8) | The loss on dispositions recorded during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 is subject to capital loss treatment in Canada. The tax benefit associated with this capital loss is subject to a full valuation allowance. |
(9) | For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss. For non-GAAP purposes, the per share and share amounts presented here reflect the inclusion of potentially dilutive shares based on the impact of the add backs included in Adjusted Net Income. |
(10) | Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided from operations excluding changes in assets and liabilities and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable less cash payments for property and equipment and deferred acquisition related payments. Free cash flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayment. However, management believes that it provides investors with an indicator of cash flows available for on-going business operations and long term value creation. |
(11) | Leverage ratio is calculated as bank debt at the end of the period divided by adjusted EBITDA for the prior twelve-month period. Management believes that leverage ratio provides investors with an indicator of the cash flows available to repay the Company’s debt obligations. |
