ICF (NASDAQ: ICFI), a global consulting and digital services provider, reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Commenting on the results, John Wasson, chairman and chief executive officer, said, "We continued to deliver strong results in the third quarter, led by double-digit growth in revenue from government clients and the steady growth of commercial energy. Similarly, year-to-date growth in these client categories has been robust, with government up 14% and commercial energy up 8.7%, representing 88% of nine-month revenue in the aggregate.

"ICF's year-to-date 7.1% increase in service revenue demonstrates how well our domain expertise and qualifications are aligned with market demand. This performance reflects the combined strength of our growth markets, including IT modernization, public health and disaster management, which together with our climate, environmental consulting and utility programs continued to drive positive revenue comparisons for both the third quarter and nine-month periods.

"Operating income increased 14.2% in the third quarter, benefitting from higher utilization, the timing of energy efficiency incentive fees, lower depreciation and amortization expense and reduced facility-related costs. Although certain operating expense items will increase in future periods in tandem with the return of pre-pandemic activities, we believe that ICF's diversified business model will continue to yield operating leverage.

"We are very pleased with the pace of our contract awards, which at $604 million represented a 1.5 book-to-bill ratio for the third quarter, and approximately two-thirds of the $1.6 billion in contract wins in the first nine months related to the capture of new business.

"Today we announced the acquisition of ESAC, also known as Enterprise Science and Computing, a highly specialized 40-person firm with advanced health analytics and bioinformatics capabilities that will expand ICF's services at existing federal government clients in the public health arena. ESAC has contracts with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Department of Veterans Affairs and other federal agencies, in addition to its roster of academic, federally funded research centers and private organizations. Importantly, ESAC is an excellent cultural fit with ICF, bringing deep expertise at the juncture of biomedical science and technology and the strong commitment of its people to improve all aspects of human health," Mr. Wasson said.

Summary and Outlook

"ICF's year-to-date performance has set the stage for 2021 to be a year of substantial growth and has led us to increase our guidance ranges for full year GAAP EPS and Non-GAAP EPS. The revised ranges of $4.05 to $4.25 for GAAP EPS and $4.70 to $4.90 for Non-GAAP EPS represent year-on-year growth of 44.6% and 15.1%, respectively, at the midpoints. EBITDA is expected to be at the high end of the range or slightly above. The guidance ranges for total revenue and service revenue remain the same. As previously disclosed and referenced above, total revenue in this year's fourth quarter will reflect a significant year-on-year reduction in pass-through revenues associated with the completion of the large commercial marketing contract in the 2020 fourth quarter. Conversely, we expect fourth quarter service revenue to be similar to third quarter levels, with growth in government and commercial energy client work more than offsetting lower comparisons in commercial marketing services, where activity has not recovered to pre-pandemic levels. Also, we are raising our full year operating cash flow guidance to $110 million from $100 million.

"In the first nine months of 2021, ICF derived over 60% of service revenue from work in key growth areas in which we expect growth rates, in the aggregate, to be at least 10% over the next several years. These areas include IT modernization, public health, disaster management and utility consulting as well as climate, environment and infrastructure, which align well with the current administration's priorities and expected government funding, as well as with utility and other commercial energy spending trends. At the end of the third quarter, our business development pipeline was a record $7.3 billion, after winning over $600 million in new awards, and represented a diversified set of opportunities in areas in which ICF has built substantial expertise and experience. This robust pipeline together with our substantial backlog will support ICF's continued growth in 2022 and beyond.

"Underpinning the strength of these forward-looking metrics is the ICF culture, which has attracted an exceptional group of people dedicated to making a difference by bringing together subject matter expertise with a broad range of cross-cutting skills that enable us to deliver positive results for our clients. We have accelerated our investments in recruitment and retention to ensure that ICF has the top talent to support our future growth, which is especially important in today's business environment.

"ICF works every day to demonstrate its commitment to carbon neutrality, diversity, social justice and equality. We encourage you to visit our website to learn more about how ICF addresses its environmental, social and governance responsibilities," Mr. Wasson concluded.

(2)These tables provide reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most applicable GAAP numbers. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may define similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently and, accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how we define these measures.
(3)Subcontractor and other direct costs is direct costs excluding direct labor and fringe costs.
(4) Adjustment related to impairment of long-lived assets: We recognized impairment expense of $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2021 related to impairment of a right-of-use lease asset.
(5) Special charges related to acquisitions: These costs consist primarily of consultants and other outside third-party costs and integration costs associated with an acquisition and/or a potential acquisition.
(6) Special charges related to severance for staff realignment: These costs are mainly due to involuntary employee termination benefits for our officers, groups of employees who have been notified that they will be terminated as part of a consolidation or reorganization or, to the extent that the costs are not included in the previous two categories, involuntary employee termination benefits for employees who have been terminated as a result of COVID-19.
(7)Special charges related to facilities consolidations and office closures:  These costs are exit costs or gains associated with office lease contraction, terminated office leases, or full office closures. The exit costs include charges incurred under a contractual obligation that existed as of the date of the accrual and for which we will continue to pay until the contractual obligation is satisfied but with no economic benefit to us.
(8) Special charges related to retirement of the former Executive Chair: As a result of the employment agreement, the departing officer was able to maintain certain equity awards beyond his date of employment. The 2019 and 2020 equity awards held by the former Executive Chair were updated for a change in the performance factor.
(9) EBITDA Margin Percent and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Percent were calculated by dividing the non-GAAP measure by the corresponding revenue.
(10)Income tax effects were calculated using an effective U.S. GAAP tax rate of 31.6% and 27.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 29.8% and 25.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
