June 14, 2016 (Hoboken, NJ) – John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (NYSE: JWa and JWb), a global provider of knowledge and learning solutions that improve outcomes in research, professional practice, and education, today announced the following results for the fourth quarter and twelve months of fiscal year 2016:
% Change

Revenue: | | | | | |
Q4 | $434.3 | $441.6 | | (1%) | (2%) |

There is no cash impact from the change. Adjusted results exclude restructuring charges and certain tax benefits as more fully described in the attached financial schedules. |
Management Commentary
“Our fourth quarter results capped the fiscal year in line with our guidance for revenue and earnings,” said Mark Allin, President and CEO. “We continued to make good progress in our transition to a digital knowledge and learning company, with nearly two-thirds of our revenue now generated from digital products and services. Our solutions businesses again delivered double-digit top line growth, notably online test preparation, corporate learning, and online program management, offsetting much of the market-driven revenue decline in traditional book publishing. Finally, our journals business achieved marginal revenue growth for the year, driven by steady subscription results and double digit growth in author-funded access.”
Fiscal Year 2017 Outlook
Operationally, Wiley’s fiscal year 2017 outlook is for revenue to be flat and adjusted EPS to be down by mid single-digits excluding both foreign exchange and the favorable impact from shifting to time-based journal subscription agreements (+$37 million in revenue and +$0.42 in EPS). The revenue projection anticipates continued modest growth in Journals and double-digit growth in Solutions to be largely offset by further declines in Book publishing. The Adjusted EPS projection reflects marginally lower operating income due to the continued book decline and investment in Solutions growth, as well as higher taxes and an anticipated rate hike impact on interest expense.
Foreign Exchange (FX)
Wiley generates half of its revenue from outside the United States, and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, particularly in relation to the euro and pound sterling. For fiscal year 2015, the weighted average rates for sterling and the euro were 1.60 and 1.25, respectively, on a US dollar equivalent basis. The weighted average rates for fiscal 2016 were 1.50 and 1.11, respectively. Note that foreign exchange was adverse to full year revenue and EPS by $61 million and $0.13, respectively. Throughout this report, references are made to variances “excluding foreign exchange” or “on a constant currency basis”; such amounts exclude both currency translation effects and transactional gains and losses.
Adjusted Results
The Company provides financial measures referred to as “adjusted” contribution to profit and EPS, which exclude restructuring charges and certain tax benefits. Variances to adjusted contribution to profit and EPS are on a constant currency basis unless otherwise noted. Management believes the exclusion of such items provides additional information to facilitate the analysis of results. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace the financial results reported in accordance with GAAP.
Fourth Quarter Summary
· | Revenue declined 1% on a constant currency basis to $434.3 million but rose 1% excluding both currency and the shift to time-based journal subscriptions ($8 million transitional impact). Operational performance was driven by growth in journal subscriptions (+1%), and double-digit growth in Corporate Learning (+35%), Author-Funded Access (+30%), WileyPLUS Course Workflow (+26%), and Online Program Management (+18%). The positive operational performance offset a 23% decline in Education textbooks and an 8% decline in Research Books and References. On a US GAAP basis, revenue declined 2% due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange and the transitional impact of shifting to time-based journal subscriptions. |
· | Adjusted EPS declined 6% excluding both currency and the shift to time-based journal subscriptions ($0.10 transitional impact). Adjusted EPS excludes restructuring charges in the current and prior year related to the outsourcing of US distribution operations and the implementation of other operational efficiency initiatives. In addition, adjusted EPS excludes a prior year non-recurring tax benefit (+$3.1 million) on the write-up of certain foreign tax assets to fair market value. The adjusted EPS decline was mainly due to higher technology costs and investments to build share in Online Program Management and Corporate Learning. Fourth quarter EPS on a US GAAP basis declined 25% to $0.59. |
· | Share Repurchases: Wiley repurchased 216,186 shares this quarter at a cost of $10.3 million, an average of $47.52 per share. Approximately 747,000 shares remain in the current repurchase authorization. |
Fiscal Year Summary
· | Revenue declined 2% on a constant currency basis to $1,727.0 million but was flat excluding both currency and the shift to time-based journal subscriptions ($37 million transitional impact). Steady performance in journal subscriptions and double-digit growth in Author-Funded Access (+21%), Online Test Preparation (+27%), Online Program Management (+18%), Corporate Learning (+31%), and WileyPLUS Course Workflow (+10%) offset declines in Education books (-15%), Professional Development books (-4%), and Research Books and References (-1%). Wiley’s percentage of revenue from print books decreased from 25% in FY15 to 23% in FY16. On a US GAAP basis, revenue declined 5% due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange and the transitional impact of shifting to time-based journal subscriptions. |
· | Adjusted EPS declined 13% on a constant currency basis to $2.70 but was flat excluding both currency and the shift to time-based journal subscriptions ($0.42 transitional impact). Adjusted EPS excludes restructuring charges in the current and prior year related to the books businesses, the outsourcing of US distribution operations, and the implementation of other operational efficiency initiatives. It also excludes a deferred tax benefit (+$5.9 million) recorded in fiscal year 2016 related to a future reduction in the UK income tax rate and a prior year non-recurring tax benefit (+$3.1 million) related to the write-up of certain foreign tax assets to fair market value. Gross profit improvement and cost savings from the restructuring programs were offset by continued investment in Online Program Management and Corporate Learning, an increase in technology expense related to digital product development and the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation, and higher employment costs. Full year GAAP EPS declined 16% to $2.48. |
· | Adjusted shared services and administrative costs rose 6% for the year to $518 million mainly due to investment in ERP and related systems, which are reported as unallocated shared services costs. |
· | Free Cash Flow was $219.0 million for the full year compared to $246.6 million in fiscal 2015 primarily due to the increase in capital investment (+$25 million) related to the ERP deployment and other systems. Cash from operations of $350.0 million was flat as expected. Wiley expects capex to increase again in fiscal 2017 primarily due to the Hoboken office transformation. |
· | Share Repurchases: In fiscal year 2016, Wiley repurchased 1.4 million shares for $70 million, an average cost of $48.86. As of April 30, the Company had nearly 747,000 shares remaining in the repurchase program announced in June 2013. |
· | Dividend: In June 2015, Wiley increased its quarterly dividend by 3% to $0.30, or $1.20 annualized. It was the 22nd consecutive annual increase. |
· | Net Debt and Cash Position:Net debt (long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents) at the end of April was $241.2 million, down from $292.6 million at the end of the prior year. Cash and cash equivalents as of April 30, 2016 were $363.8 million. |
· | Credit Facility: On March 1, Wiley amended its existing revolving credit agreement, increasing its capacity to $1.1 billion and extending the term by five years to March 2021. |
RESEARCH
· | Revenue: Fourth quarter revenue of $264.8 million was down 3% on a constant currency basis and flat excluding the $8 million transitional impact from the shift to time-based journal subscriptions. Steady performance in journal subscriptions and double-digit growth in Author-Funded Access (+30%) offset a decline in Books and References (-8%). For the full year, Research revenue was flat to prior year at constant currency and excluding the impact of the shift to time-based journal subscriptions. Full year Journal Subscriptions results were adversely impacted by the trailing effects of the Swets subscription agency bankruptcy (-$3 million). |
· | Calendar Year 2016 Journal Subscriptions: At the end of April, calendar year 2016 Journal Subscriptions were up 1% on a constant currency basis, with approximately 95% of targeted business under contract for the 2016 calendar year. |
· | Society Business: Two new society contracts were signed in the quarter with combined annual revenue of $4 million; four were renewed with combined annual revenue of $1 million; and two were not renewed with combined annual revenue of $3 million. For calendar year 2016, six new society contracts were signed (+$12 million of annual revenue) and eighteen were not renewed (-$11 million), for a net gain of $1 million in annual revenue. This compares to an annualized revenue loss of $4 million in calendar year 2015. Additionally, calendar year 2016 includes renewals of 87 contracts with combined annual revenue of $54 million. |
· | Adjusted Contribution to Profit (CTP): Fourth quarter adjusted CTP of $87.1 million declined 11% on a constant currency basis but was flat excluding currency and the margin impact from shifting to time-based journal subscriptions. CTP performance was adversely impacted by charges for bad debt in Venezuela (-$1 million) and an unfavorable court ruling related to royalty rights in Germany (-$1 million). For the year, adjusted CTP was down 10% at constant currency but up 2% excluding currency and the shift to time-based journal subscriptions. Fourth quarter and full year CTP on a US GAAP basis were down 11% and 14%, respectively. |
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
· | Revenue: Fourth quarter revenue rose 3% on a constant currency basis to $103.1 million primarily due to double-digit growth in Corporate Learning (+35%), with gains spread broadly across France, the US, and Central and South American markets. Revenue growth in Digital Books (+6%) and Online Test Preparation (+4%) offset a 4% decline in Print Books. For the year, Professional Development revenue grew 2% due to growth in Corporate Learning (+31%) and Online Test Preparation (+27%), offsetting a decline in Books (-4%). |
· | Adjusted Contribution to Profit (CTP): Adjusted CTP rose 71% on a constant currency basis to $20.5 million due to continued efficiency gains and restructuring savings. Fourth quarter and full year CTP on a US GAAP basis were up 72% and 95%, respectively. |
EDUCATION
· | Revenue: Fourth quarter revenue increased 1% on a constant currency basis to $66.5 million, with double-digit growth in WileyPLUS Course Workflow (+26%) and Online Program Management (+18%) offsetting a decline in Textbooks (-23%). For the year, Education revenue declined 2% at constant currency to $357.5 million. |
· | Adjusted Contribution to Profit (CTP): Fourth quarter adjusted CTP improved 6% on a constant currency basis to a seasonal loss of $7.5 million, reflecting cost savings and margin improvement, partially offset by continued investment in new programs for Online Program Management and lower Textbook revenue. For the year, Education CTP was down 17% at constant currency to $37.1 million, reflecting the Textbook revenue decline and investment in Online Program Management. Fourth quarter and full year CTP on a US GAAP basis were down 11% and 23%, respectively. |
· | Online Program Management (formerly Deltak): Wiley added four net new degree programs in the quarter. At the end of April, Wiley had 226 online degree programs under contract compared to 200 at the end of the prior year period. Wiley’s partner count stands at 38. |
· | WileyPLUS alliance: In March, Wiley and CareerShift announced a collaboration agreement to bring personalized career search resources to business students. This alliance will make searching for jobs easier and more efficient for students who use WileyPLUS platforms with their Wiley business textbooks in accounting and management. Wiley’s association with CareerShift will offer WileyPLUS students free access to CareerShift’s search tools for planning and executing job searches. |

Adjustments: | | | | | | | | | | | |
a | Restructuring Charges: The adjusted results for the three and twelve months ended April 30, 2016 exclude restructuring charges related to the Company's Restructuring and Reinvestment Program of $7.8 million or $0.08 per share, and $28.6 million or $0.32 per share, respectively. The adjusted results for the three and twelve months ended April 30, 2015 exclude a restructuring charge of $4.9 million or $0.07 per share, and $28.8 million or $0.34 per share, respectively. |
b | Deferred Income Tax Benefit on UK Rate Change: The adjusted results for the twelve months ended April 30, 2016 exclude deferred tax benefits of $5.9 million, or $0.10 per share, associated with tax legislation enacted in fiscal year 2016 in the United Kingdom that reduced the U.K. corporate income tax rates by 2%. The benefits reflect the remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax balances to the new income tax rates of 19% effective April 1, 2017 and 18% effective April 1, 2020 and had no current cash tax impact. |
c | NON-RECURRING TAX BENEFIT: The adjusted results for the three and twelve months ended April 30, 2015 reflect a non-recurring tax benefit of $3.1 million or $0.05 per share related to tax deductions claimed on the write-up of certain foreign tax assets to fair market value. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures: | | | | | | | | | | | |

These non-GAAP financial measures are labeled as "Adjusted" and are used for evaluating the results of operations for internal purposes.

Note: As part of Wiley’s Restructuring and Reinvestment Program, the Company consolidated its Marketing Services functions into a single global shared service function. This newly centralized service group enables significant cost reduction opportunities, including efficiencies gained from standardized technology and centralized management. The cost of these functions were previously reported as direct operating expenses in each business segment but are now reported within Shared Services and Administrative Costs and then allocated to each business segment above. Prior year amounts have been restated to reflect the same reporting methodology. |

Note: The Company’s management evaluates performance using free cash flow. The Company believes free cash flow provides a meaningful and comparable measure of performance. Since free cash flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered as a substitute for other GAAP measures, including cash used for or provided by operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, as an indicator of performance. |
