ACXIOM ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Maintains Guidance for the Year
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – August 4, 2014 Acxiom® (Nasdaq: ACXM), an enterprise data, analytics and software-as-a-service company, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended June 30, 2014.
First Quarter Financial Highlights
· | Total revenue was down 6 percent compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of expected IT Infrastructure Management declines and European restructuring. |
o | Marketing and Data Services revenue was $187 million, slightly down compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2014. |
o | IT Infrastructure Management revenue was down, as expected, approximately 20 percent compared to the same period a year ago. |
o | Gross media spend through the Audience Operating System™ was approximately $28 million, up 87 percent compared to the fourth quarter of last year. |
· | GAAP operating income and diluted earnings per share were down due to one-time expenses associated with business separation and transformation activities. |
o | Net loss per diluted share from continuing operations was $0.08 compared to earnings per share of $0.17 a year ago. Unusual items and non-cash compensation expense impacted GAAP earnings per share by $0.21 in the quarter. Unusual items included expenses associated with the Company’s restructuring activities, separation and transformation initiatives, and the acquisition of LiveRamp, Inc. |
o | Operating cash flow from continuing operations was $149 million for the trailing twelve months, down 11 percent compared to the same period a year ago. Free cash flow to equity was $56 million for the trailing twelve-month period compared to $70 million for the comparable period. The decline was primarily due to cash restructuring and separation and transformation expenses and higher capital spending. |
· | Non-GAAP operating income and diluted earnings per share were down primarily due to the declines in the IT Infrastructure Management business. |
o | Excluding unusual items and non-cash compensation expense, diluted earnings per share were $0.13 compared to $0.19 a year ago. |
o | Excluding unusual items and non-cash compensation expense, operating income was $19 million, down from $27 million for the same period last year. The change was due to the expected declines in the IT Infrastructure Management business and, to a lesser extent, higher R&D expenses. |
· | The Company reiterates its full year revenue and earnings per share guidance. |
A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP results is attached to this release.
During the quarter, the Company announced its acquisition of LiveRamp, an industry leader in connecting first and third party offline data with the digital marketing ecosystem. In addition, Acxiom completed the sale of its U.K. call center business, 2Touch. As a result, 2Touch results for the current and prior years are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations. Revenue and expenses related to discontinued operations are netted and presented on one line, net of tax, in the statement of operations.
“The integration of LiveRamp is off to a great start,” said Acxiom CEO Scott Howe. “This quarter we added 7 new AOS™ clients and are in the process of introducing LiveRamp to our customer base. Exciting opportunities lie ahead as we build toward a connected ecosystem of customers, publishers and marketing applications.”
First Quarter Business Highlights
· | The Company sold its U.K. call center operation, 2Touch, to Parseq Ltd. to increase its focus on its core Marketing and Data Services business. |
· | Acxiom signed several Marketing and Data Services agreements during the quarter including new database contracts with Zurich-based ACE Insurance Group and Australia-based Sevenwest Media Group, and renewals with Virgin Media and First National Bank of Omaha. |
· | Acxiom signed 7 new AOS agreements during the quarter with several industry-leading companies including Carrefour Media, J. Jill, a global investment management firm and a major airline. |
· | Subsequent to quarter end, Acxiom completed its acquisition of LiveRamp, a leading service for onboarding customer data into digital marketing applications. Together, Acxiom and LiveRamp become the industry-leading solution for bringing first and third party data online with better matching, more connectivity and faster onboarding. |
Financial Outlook
The following projections are forward-looking and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially as detailed in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this press release. Our guidance includes the impact of the LiveRamp acquisition but excludes the impact of unusual items, acquisition related expenses and non-cash compensation expense. Acxiom’s estimates for fiscal 2015 are as follows:
· | We continue to expect revenue from continuing operations for the fiscal year to be down roughly five percent compared to fiscal year 2014. The decline in revenue is primarily due to the impact of lost IT Infrastructure Management customers and the exit of our analog paper survey business in Europe. |
· | Adjusting for the 2Touch divestiture, we continue to expect earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $0.73 to $0.83. |

With respect to the provision of products or services outside our primary base of operations in the United States, all of the above factors apply, along with the difficulty of doing business in numerous sovereign jurisdictions due to differences in scale, competition, culture, laws and regulations.
We undertake no obligation to update the information contained in this press release or any other forward-looking statement.
