Insights

The recent financial report from IQVIA shows a positive overall performance for the company. Revenue for the second quarter was $3,814 million, growing 2.3% year-over-year. This is modest but indicates steady growth, especially when considering the 3.5% growth at constant currency. The Adjusted EBITDA of $887 million also reflects strong operational efficiency and the GAAP Net Income of $363 million further consolidates the company's profitability.

The update to the full-year 2024 guidance with revenue projected between $15,425 million and $15,525 million and Adjusted Diluted EPS between $11.10 and $11.30 indicates confidence in continued financial health.

From a retail investor perspective, IQVIA's consistent revenue growth, strong profit margins and robust earnings per share growth signal the company's sound business strategy and operational excellence, making the stock an attractive long-term investment.

IQVIA's R&D Solutions saw significant traction with quarterly bookings of $2.7 billion and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.27x. This high book-to-bill ratio suggests strong demand and bodes well for future revenue conversion, with approximately $7.8 billion expected to convert over the next twelve months.

The R&D backlog of $30.6 billion, growing 7.7% year-over-year, highlights the company's strong market position and continued investment in innovation and product development. This is important for maintaining a competitive edge in the life sciences analytics and technology solutions industry.

For investors, these metrics demonstrate IQVIA's ability to secure and sustain long-term contracts, providing revenue visibility and stability, which is highly valued in the volatile tech market.

The reported growth in Technology & Analytics Solutions (TAS) revenue, up 2.7% on a reported basis and 3.8% at constant currency, signifies the increasing adoption of IQVIA's advanced analytics and tech solutions. This segment's performance, driven by robust demand for data-driven insights and technology integration, underscores the company's role in the digital transformation of life sciences.

However, it's notable that the Contract Sales & Medical Solutions (CSMS) saw a slight decline of 2.3%. This may warrant closer scrutiny to understand market dynamics better and the impact on future revenue streams in this segment.

For investors, the growth in TAS is promising as it aligns with broader industry trends towards digital and data-centric approaches. The potential for scalability and recurring revenue streams from tech solutions makes this segment particularly attractive for future growth prospects.

For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see the “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as such factors may be amended or updated from time to time in our subsequent periodic and other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release and in our filings with the SEC. We assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statement after the date of this release, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes information based on financial measures that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Gross Leverage Ratio, Net Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented only as a supplement to the company’s financial statements based on GAAP. Non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance understanding of the company’s financial performance, but none of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP, and non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. The company uses non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful indicator of the underlying operating performance of the business. For example, the company excludes all the amortization of intangible assets associated with acquired customer relationships and backlog, databases, non-compete agreements, trademarks and trade names from non-GAAP expense and income measures as such amounts can be significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining net income. As a result, internal management reports feature non-GAAP measures which are also used to prepare strategic plans and annual budgets and review management compensation. The company also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not presented in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the schedules attached to this release for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Our full-year 2024 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis without a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition related expenses, restructuring and related expenses, stock-based compensation and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.

Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to the company, many of which present non-GAAP measures when reporting their results. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool. They are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or liquidity and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, you should not consider such performance measures in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
