Insights

ADT's Q2 2024 results demonstrate a solid financial performance with some notable highlights and challenges. The 3% year-over-year revenue growth to $1.2 billion and 2% increase in recurring monthly revenue (RMR) to $355 million indicate steady expansion of the company's core business. However, the decline in GAAP income from continuing operations by $54 million to $126 million raises some concerns.

The company's focus on cash generation is evident, with a 14% increase in net cash provided by operating activities to $563 million. This, coupled with the $150 million debt reduction, demonstrates ADT's commitment to improving its financial position. The strong customer retention with a gross revenue attrition of 12.9% and revenue payback of 2.2 years suggests a stable customer base.

Looking ahead, ADT's decision to affirm its full-year 2024 guidance metrics indicates confidence in its business model and growth strategies. The company's focus on innovative offerings like the ADT+ platform and Trusted Neighbor service could potentially drive future growth. However, investors should monitor the impact of legal settlements and increased allowance for credit losses on future earnings.

Overall, while ADT shows resilience in its core operations, the mixed results warrant careful observation of future quarters to assess the long-term trajectory of the company's financial performance.

ADT's technological initiatives in Q2 2024 showcase a strategic focus on innovation and AI integration, positioning the company at the forefront of smart home security. The continued rollout of the ADT+ platform is a significant move, offering next-generation hardware and a proprietary app that serves as a foundation for future innovations.

The introduction of Trusted Neighbor in partnership with Google and Yale is particularly noteworthy. This feature, allowing secure, temporary access to homes through the ADT+ app, addresses a growing need in the smart home market for flexible access solutions. Its planned availability for select new customers in Q3 2024 could be a key differentiator for ADT in the competitive smart home security landscape.

ADT's leveraging of Google Cloud's AI technology for enhancing operational efficiency and customer experience is a forward-thinking approach. The focus on implementing AI in customer care operations and retention programs could lead to improved service quality and potentially lower operational costs in the long run.

The nationwide rollout of the Alarm Scoring program is another technological advancement that could enhance ADT's value proposition to both customers and first responders. By providing more precise alarm data, ADT is not only improving its service but also contributing to public safety efforts.

These technological initiatives, combined with ADT's strong partnership with Google Nest, indicate a clear strategy to stay ahead in the evolving smart home security market. However, the success of these initiatives will depend on customer adoption rates and the company's ability to effectively integrate these technologies into its existing systems.

Continued strong operating cash generation

Solid revenue growth, up 3% versus prior year period

Improved leverage and over $150 million debt reduction in the quarter

BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADT Inc. (NYSE: ADT), the most trusted brand in smart home and small business security, today reported results for the second quarter of 2024.

Total revenue was $1,205 million for the second quarter, up 3%. Monitoring and related services (M&S) revenue growth was driven by an increase in the recurring revenue base due primarily to higher average pricing. Security installation, product, and other revenue increased primarily from higher amortization of deferred subscriber acquisition revenue.

Income from continuing operations was $126 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, down $54 million. This was primarily attributable to a current year charge and prior year credit related to legal settlements in aggregate amount of approximately $40 million, an increase in the allowance for credit losses, and higher net interest expense due to a decrease in unrealized gains on interest rate swaps, partially offset by continued recurring revenue growth.

Adjusted income from continuing operations was $156 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, up $3 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $629 million, down $12 million. These measures included improvements from increases in recurring revenue, and were negatively impacted by the aforementioned legal settlements and allowance for credit losses.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter was $563 million, up $70 million or 14% and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) increased by $30 million. These measures, which benefited from lower cash interest resulting from debt reduction and timing of working capital and other items, were partially offset by the net results of the commercial and solar businesses. In addition, Adjusted Free Cash Flow also includes the lower net cash flows associated with the receivables facility.

The Company returned $50 million to shareholders in dividends. As of June 30, 2024, approximately $257 million remains available for future repurchases under the Share Repurchase Plan.

Total cash and cash equivalents were $38 million and no amounts were outstanding under the Company’s first lien revolving credit facility at the end of the quarter.

In April, the Company redeemed the remaining $100 million of its First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2024 and completed a repricing of the $1.4 billion First Lien Term Loan B reducing borrowing costs by 25 basis points. There are no other significant debt maturities until 2026.

In May, the Company amended and restated its First Lien Credit Agreement, which included the refinancing of $618 million principal amount of loans under the Company’s Term Loan A Facility for its First Lien Term Loan B due 2030. The Term Loan A Facility has been terminated, and there is approximately $2.0 billion of First Lien Term Loan B outstanding.

2024 Financial Outlook

The Company is reiterating its 2024 financial guidance for Total Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow while updating the range for Adjusted EPS to reflect the presentation of the solar business as a discontinued operation.

(in millions, except per share data)  
Total Revenue $4,800 - $5,000
Adjusted EBITDA $2,525 - $2,625
Adjusted EPS $0.65 - $0.75
Adjusted Free Cash Flow
(including interest rate swaps)
 $700 - $800
The Company is not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP financial measures other than Total Revenue or a quantitative reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure for its non-GAAP financial guidance shown above because the GAAP measures cannot be reliably estimated and the reconciliations cannot be performed without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items that the Company cannot reasonably predict at this time but which may be material. Please see "Non-GAAP Measures" for additional information.

Total Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA reflect the results of the former CSB segment. GAAP cash flows include results of Solar discontinued operations. Adjusted Free Cash Flow excludes amounts related to the exit from the solar business, consistent with the definition of this measure. Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, all remaining cash flows attributable to activities of the solar business will be excluded from Adjusted Free Cash Flow as the business is now substantially wound down.
 

Dividend Declaration

Effective Aug. 1, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.055 per share to holders of the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock of record as of Sep. 13, 2024. This dividend will be paid on Oct. 4, 2024.

(1) All variances are year-over-year unless otherwise noted. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps), Adjusted Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share (or, Adjusted EPS), Net Debt, and Net Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Measures” section for the definitions of the terms and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures included herein. The operating metrics such as Gross Customer Revenue Attrition, Unit Count, RMR, Gross RMR Additions, and Revenue Payback are approximated as there may be variations to reported results in each period due to certain adjustments the Company might make in connection with the integration over several periods of acquired companies that calculated these metrics differently, or otherwise, including periodic reassessments and refinements in the ordinary course of business. These refinements, for example, may include changes due to systems conversion or historical methodology differences in legacy systems. Results of the commercial and solar businesses are presented as discontinued operations. Except for cash flow measures, and unless otherwise noted, amounts herein have been recast to reflect the results of the Company’s continuing operations.

ADT sometimes uses information (“non-GAAP financial measures”) that is derived from the consolidated financial statements, but that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Under SEC rules, non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.

The following information includes definitions of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures used in this release, reasons management believes these measures are useful to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, additional purposes, if any, for which management uses the non-GAAP financial measures, and limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented following the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The limitations of non-GAAP financial measures are best addressed by considering these measures in conjunction with the appropriate GAAP measures. In addition, computations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

With regard to the Company’s financial guidance for 2024, the Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP income (loss) from continuing operations, Adjusted EPS to GAAP diluted income (loss) per share from continuing operations, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) to GAAP net cash provided by operating activities, which are the most directly comparable respective GAAP measures. These GAAP measures cannot be reliably predicted or estimated without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as the adjustment of items used in the following reconciliations. Additionally, information not currently available to the Company about other adjusting items could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

Unless otherwise noted, non-GAAP measures herein reflect the results of only the Company’s continuing operations. Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) reflect the results of both continuing and discontinued operations, which is consistent with the presentation of the GAAP measure net cash provided by (used in) operating activities. Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) exclude amounts related to the exit from the solar business, consistent with the definition of these measures. Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, all remaining cash flows attributable to activities of the solar business will be excluded from these measures as the business is now substantially wound down.

Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps

The Company defines Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less cash outlays related to capital expenditures. The Company defines capital expenditures to include accounts purchased through the Company’s network of authorized dealers or third parties outside of the Company’s authorized dealer network, subscriber system asset expenditures, and purchases of property and equipment. These items are subtracted from cash flows from operating activities because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities.

The Company defines Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Free Cash Flow adjusted for net cash flows related to (i) net proceeds from the Company’s consumer receivables facility; (ii) restructuring and integration payments; (iii) integration-related capital expenditures; and (iv) transaction costs and other payments or receipts that may mask operating results or business trends. Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps reflects Adjusted Free Cash Flow plus net cash settlements on interest rate swaps presented outside of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

The Company believes the presentations of these non-GAAP measures are appropriate to provide investors with useful information about the Company’s ability to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. The Company believes the presentation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow is also a useful measure of the cash flow attributable to normal business activities, inclusive of the net cash flows associated with the acquisition of subscribers, as well as the Company’s ability to repay other debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. Further, Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps is a useful measure of Adjusted Free Cash Flow inclusive of all cash interest.

There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures adjust for cash items that are ultimately within management’s discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash available than the most comparable GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.

The non-GAAP measures in the table below include cash flows associated with both continuing and discontinued operations consistent with the applicable GAAP presentation on the Statement of Cash Flows.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations (“Adjusted EBITDA Margin”)

The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors to measure the operational strength and performance of its business. The Company believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful as it provides investors additional information about operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-routine items the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items not core to its operations. Further, the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because the Company uses it for evaluating business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing company performance against other peer companies using similar measures.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets; (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions; (v) share-based compensation expense; (vi) merger, restructuring, integration, and other items; (vii) impairment charges; and (viii) non-cash, non-routine, or other adjustments or charges not necessary to operate our business.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA as it does not include certain significant items which directly affect income (loss) from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP measure).

The discussion above is also applicable to Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue.

_______________________
(1) During 2024, primarily includes unrealized (gains) / losses related to interest rate swaps presented in other income (expense) and loss on extinguishment of debt.

Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations (“Adjusted Income (Loss)”) and Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per Share from Continuing Operations (“Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per Share” or “Adjusted EPS”)

The Company defines Adjusted Income (Loss) as income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for (i) merger, restructuring, integration, and other; (ii) share-based compensation expense; (iii) unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts not designated as hedges; (iv) impairment charges; (v) non-cash, non-routine, or other adjustments or charges not necessary to operate our business; and (vi) the impact these adjusted items have on taxes.

Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share is Adjusted Income (Loss) divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock. When the control number for the GAAP calculation is negative, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock does not include the assumed conversion of Class B common stock and other potential shares, such as share-based compensation awards, to shares of common stock.

The Company believes Adjusted Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share are benchmarks used by analysts and investors who follow the industry for comparison of its performance with other companies in the industry, although these measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

There are material limitations to using these measures, as they do not reflect certain significant items which directly affect income (loss) from continuing operations and related per share amounts (the most comparable GAAP measures).
