ATLANTA, OCTOBER 28, 2002 - PRG-Schultz International, Inc. (Nasdaq: PRGX) today
announced financial results for the third quarter 2002, updated its 2002
fourth-quarter and full-year outlook and provided an outlook for full-year 2003.
The Company also announced plans to integrate its US Retail and US Commercial
Accounts Payable operations. In addition, PRG-Schultz announced that its Board
of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of PRG-Schultz
common shares.
THIRD QUARTER 2002 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
o Reported EPS from continuing operations was $0.13 per share on a diluted
basis, in line with the Company's previously provided outlook.
o Pro-forma EPS from continuing operations was $0.17 per share excluding
non-recurring expenses of $0.01 per diluted share and transition expenses
of $0.03 per diluted share.
o Revenues totaled $116.1 million:
o Revenues from Accounts Payable Services totaled $101.9 million.
o Revenues from Other Ancillary Services totaled $14.2 million.
o Cash flow from operating activities increased to $27.5 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, from $9.8 million for the same period a
year ago.
o Operating income margin increased to 14.9% of revenues from 6.5% during the
third quarter of 2001. Excluding non-recurring and transition expenses,
operating income margin was 19.2% for the third quarter of 2002.
o EBITDA margin improved to 18.6% of revenues from 13.7% during the third
quarter of 2001. Excluding non-recurring and transition expenses, EBITDA
margin was 22.7% for the third quarter of 2002.
"I am very pleased we achieved our earnings objective, significantly enhanced
cash flow and improved operating margins during the quarter," said John Cook,
chief executive officer of PRG-Schultz. "Several areas of our business,
including our key US Retail accounts, our European Accounts Payable operations,
5
and our Other Ancillary Services segment, performed better than we expected.
Despite revenue challenges in our US Commercial Accounts Payable business and
the specialty services area of our US Retail Accounts Payable business, the
PRG-Schultz team continues to deliver exceptional service to our clients in a
clearly difficult economic environment. Looking ahead, our revenue outlook for
the remainder of the year is more conservative, reflecting these challenges."
"PRG-Schultz continues to take meaningful steps to leverage our successful
business model, while positioning the company for long-term growth and
delivering enhanced value to our shareholders," added Cook. "Our experience and
success to-date with the merger of PRG and HS&A has convinced me of the power of
one combined and streamlined organization, and I firmly believe that integrating
our US Accounts Payable businesses will further enable us to leverage our
combined industry expertise, effectively and efficiently align and execute our
service delivery to the needs and opportunities of our clients, and capitalize
on broad-scope audit opportunities."
THIRD QUARTER 2002 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues for the third quarter of 2002 totaled $116.1 million, compared to $74.7
million in the third quarter of 2001. Revenues from Accounts Payable Services
and Other Ancillary Services totaled $101.9 million and $14.2 million,
respectively, for the quarter, compared to $61.6 million and $13.1 million,
respectively, a year ago.
Reported earnings from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2002 were
$9.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $0.9 million, or $0.02 per
diluted share, in the third quarter of 2001. As required under generally
accepted accounting principles, after-tax interest and amortization expense
related to the Company's convertible notes of approximately $1.0 million and
$3.1 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002
has been added back to earnings from continuing operations for the purpose of
calculating diluted earnings per share. Correspondingly, the approximately 16.1
million common shares into which the convertible notes can be exchanged have
been added to the diluted share count for both the third quarter and first nine
months of 2002.
Operating income (EBIT) totaled $17.3 million, or 14.9% of revenues, compared to
$4.8 million, or 6.5% of revenues, in the same period a year ago. Earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) totaled $21.6
million, or 18.6% of revenues, compared to $10.2 million, or 13.7% of revenues
in the third quarter of 2001.
Excluding non-recurring expenses of $1.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share
after-tax, earnings from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2002
were $10.0 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. The analysts' consensus estimate
as published on October 25, 2002 by First Call, which also excluded
non-recurring charges, was $0.13 per diluted share. Excluding these
non-recurring expenses, and also excluding transition expenses of $3.9 million,
6
or $0.03 per diluted share after-tax, earnings from continuing operations for
the third quarter of 2002 were $12.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share.
Excluding both non-recurring and transition expenses, operating income totaled
$22.3 million, or 19.2% of revenues and EBITDA totaled $26.4 million or 22.7% of
revenues.
During the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded an after-tax gain from
discontinued operations of $0.4 million to reflect receipt of a portion of the
revenue-based royalty from the sale of the Logistics Management Services segment
in October 2001.
Schedules 3 and 4 provide summary financial results from continuing operations
for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 and 2001 by operating
segment on both a reported and pro-forma basis.
FIRST NINE MONTHS 2002 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues for the first nine months of 2002 totaled $344.7 million, compared to
$227.7 million in the first nine months of 2001. Revenues from Accounts Payable
Services and Other Ancillary Services totaled $304.2 million and $40.5 million,
respectively, compared to $186.3 million and $41.4 million, respectively, a year
ago.
Reported earnings from continuing operations before the cumulative effect of an
accounting change for the first nine months of 2002 were $22.5 million or $0.32
per diluted share, compared to $2.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the
first nine months of 2001.
New Accounting Pronouncement
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company implemented SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." SFAS 142 requires that an intangible asset with a finite
life be amortized over its useful life and that an intangible asset with an
infinite life and goodwill not be amortized but evaluated for impairment.
Accordingly, results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 do not
include any goodwill amortization. For purposes of comparison, goodwill
amortization expense totaled $2.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share after-tax,
in the third quarter of 2001 and $7.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share
after-tax, for the first nine months of 2001.
CASH FLOW, DSO'S AND CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
Net cash from operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2002
was approximately $18.7 million, compared to $13.8 million in 2001. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, net cash from operations was $27.5 million,
compared to $9.8 million a year ago.
Company-wide, Days Sales Outstanding (DSO's) for the third quarter of 2002 stood
at 52 days, compared to 64 days a year ago. DSO's for Accounts Payable Services
were 57 days, compared to 64 days a year ago. Company-wide DSO's were lower than
those for Accounts Payable Services, as two of the three business units which
7
comprise the Other Ancillary Services reporting segment are on the cash basis of
revenue recognition in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission
guidance.
Capital expenditures totaled approximately $4.8 million for the third quarter of
2002 and $19.4 million year-to-date.
INTEGRATION OF US ACCOUNTS PAYABLE OPERATIONS
The Company announced that in order to further leverage its combined industry
expertise, effectively and efficiently align and execute service delivery to the
needs and opportunities of existing and prospective clients, and capitalize on
broad-scope audit opportunities, it will integrate its US Retail and US
Commercial Accounts Payable operations. This organizational change entails the
integration of the US Retail and US Commercial operations, sales and account
management teams as well as the consolidation of certain functional support
areas. The Company currently expects to achieve related cost savings of at least
$6.0 million in 2003. The Company also expects to incur a non-recurring charge
of approximately $4.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share after-tax, during the
fourth quarter 2002 related to severance and facilities consolidation. The
integration of the US Retail and US Commercial operations is expected to be
completed by the end of the first quarter 2003.
BOARD AUTHORIZATION FOR SHARE REPURCHASES
The Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase
of up to $50 million of PRG-Schultz common shares. Purchases may be made in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time, and will
depend on market conditions, business opportunities and other factors. The
Company anticipates funding the purchases through a combination of cash flow
from operations and borrowings under the Company's senior bank credit facility.
Included in this authorization is the possibility of the Company exercising its
second option to purchase up to approximately 1.45 million shares from an
affiliate of PRG-Schultz director Howard Schultz as previously announced in
August 2002.
2002 OUTLOOK
"For the remainder of 2002, we believe it prudent to be more conservative with
respect to our revenue expectations in our US Commercial Accounts Payable
business, as we continue to witness an acceleration of certain trends that
adversely impact revenues including increased competitive pressures and
continued weakness in some of the major industries served," said Cook. "We also
expect revenues from the specialty services area of our US Retail operations to
be lower than previously anticipated. Specialty services comprise certain
centrally-provided services including client statement reviews and auditing of
direct-to-store-delivery transactions."
8
"PRG-Schultz's earnings for the fourth quarter and full-year 2002, excluding
non-recurring and transition expenses, are expected to approach or meet our
previous expectations," Cook added.
The Company today updated its outlook for the fourth quarter and full-year 2002.
Revenues, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, non-recurring
and transition expenses, and resulting pro-forma earnings per diluted share from
continuing operations are expected to approximate the amounts set forth in the
table below:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMPANY OUTLOOK: Q4 2002 FULL YEAR 2002
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounts Payable Revenues $105 - 109 million $409 - 413 million
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other Ancillary Services Revenues $13 million $53 million
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Revenues $118 - 122 million $462 - 466 million
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diluted EPS $0.08 - 0.11 $0.40 - 0.43
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Recurring Expenses (HS&A Integration) $0.04 $0.07
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transition Expenses (HS&A Integration) $0.03 $0.16
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
US Accounts Payable Integration
& Other Non-Recurring Expenses $0.04 $0.04
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pro-Forma Diluted EPS $0.19 - 0.22 $0.67 - $0.70
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: Full-year diluted EPS and pro-forma diluted EPS exclude cumulative effect
of accounting change of approximately $(0.21).
For the full-year 2002, non-recurring expenses and transition expenses related
to the acquisition and integration of Howard Schultz & Associates are currently
estimated to be approximately $0.07 per diluted share after-tax and $0.16 per
diluted share after-tax, respectively, and in total are unchanged from the
Company's previous estimate. As outlined above, the Company now also expects to
incur approximately $4.8 million (or approximately $0.04 per diluted share
after-tax) in non-recurring charges related primarily to the integration of the
US Commercial and US Retail Accounts Payable operations, consisting of severance
and facilities consolidation.
9
2003 OUTLOOK
The Company also provided for the first time its initial outlook for 2003. Total
revenues from continuing operations are expected to range from $483 - 500
million. Revenues from Accounts Payable Services are estimated to range from
$430 - 447 million, representing growth over 2002 estimated Accounts Payable
revenues of approximately 5 - 8%. Revenues from Other Ancillary Services are
estimated to approximate $53 million, roughly even to 2002 levels.
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations are expected to range from
$0.70 - 0.77 in 2003.
Given the impact of the current economic environment on the major industries the
Company serves, the Company is taking a cautious approach to its 2003 full-year
outlook. The Company noted that revenue growth in its Accounts Payable business
next year will be driven by its international business, which is expected to
grow revenues by approximately 18-22%. Excluding certain merger-related issues,
the US Retail Accounts Payable business is expected to grow revenues by
approximately 6-8%. Those merger-related issues, which are primarily related to
the timing of certain audit cycles and the loss of some shared client revenues
in 2003 are expected to result in reported year-over-year revenue growth in 2003
of up to 5% for the US Retail Accounts Payable business. PRG-Schultz continues
to be cautious with respect to its US Commercial Accounts Payable business until
the implementation of broad-scope auditing is further along, and revenues
derived from that business in 2003 are currently anticipated to be even or
slightly down from anticipated 2002 revenue levels.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements made in this news release which look forward in time involve risks
and uncertainties and are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such risks and uncertainties
include the following: (i) we may not be able to successfully integrate Howard
Schultz and Associates (HS&A) and achieve the planned post-acquisition synergy
cost savings due to unexpected costs, loss of former HS&A auditors and other
personnel, loss of revenue with respect to shared clients and other reasons,
(ii) if the current economic slowdown continues, our clients may not return to
previous purchasing levels, and as a result we may be unable to recognize
anticipated revenues, (iii) the bankruptcy of any of our larger clients,
including without limitation, potential negative effects of the recent Kmart
bankruptcy filing, could impair then-existing accounts receivable and reduce
expected future revenues from such clients, (iv) since the businesses comprising
the other ancillary services segment were operated prior to January 24, 2002
primarily for the purpose of preparing them for sale, they may require
additional time and effort of Company executives and additional Company
resources to help them achieve desired profitability and may distract management
from its focus on the Company's core accounts payable business, and there is no
guaranty that the Company can operate these businesses efficiently and
profitably, (v) the previously announced intention to dispose of the
discontinued operations has in some instances resulted in the loss of key
personnel and diminished operating results in such operations which may be
difficult to reverse going forward, (vi) we may not achieve anticipated expense
savings, (vii) our past and future investments in technology and e-commerce may
not benefit our business, (viii) our accounts payable businesses may not grow as
expected, and we may not be able to increase the number of clients utilizing
broad-scope audits, and (ix) our international expansion may prove unprofitable,
and (x) the integration of our US Retail and US Commercial Accounts Payable
operations may not be successful or may require more time, management attention
or expense than we currently anticipate. Other risks and uncertainties that may
affect our business include (i) our ability to effectively manage our business
during our business integration with HS&A, (ii) the possibility of an adverse
judgment in pending securities litigation, (iii) potential timing issues that
could delay revenue recognition, (iv) future weakness in the currencies of
countries in which we transact business, (v) changes in economic cycles, (vi)
competition from other companies, (vii) changes in governmental regulations
applicable to us, and and other risk factors discussed in our Securities and
Exchange Commission filings, including the Company's Form 10-Q as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on August 9, 2002 and post-effective
amendment to Form S-3, as filed with the Securities and Exchange commission on
August 30, 2002. The Company disclaims any obligation or duty to update or
modify these forward-looking statements.
