NEW YORK, May 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: KD), the world's largest IT infrastructure services provider, today released financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
"In Kyndryl's first full quarter as an independent company, we've expanded our technology ecosystem and invested in our people to better serve our customers and drive toward profitable revenue growth," said Kyndryl Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Martin Schroeter.
"I'm enthusiastic about our momentum. We're making meaningful progress on our three key initiatives – Alliances, Advanced Delivery and Accounts – which focus on expanding our relationships with key technology partners, transforming our service delivery through upskilling and automation, and proactively addressing existing accounts with substandard margins. We'll continue executing on this strategy to drive shareholder value."

"Our results include the initial benefits of our freedom of action as an independent company," said Kyndryl Chief Financial Officer David Wyshner. "I'm especially encouraged by the support this quarter from our Alliances, Advanced Delivery and Accounts initiatives, which over the next three to five years will each contribute hundreds of millions of dollars to our pretax income."
Recent Developments
- Progress on our initiatives – In the quarter, the Company began marketing cloud-related services tied to hyperscaler alliances, completed its first signings and built a pipeline of more than
$1 billion of signings opportunities. As part of the Advanced Delivery initiative, the Company redeployed over 900 delivery professionals to serve new revenue streams and backfill attrition, generating annualized savings of roughly$46 million . In its Accounts initiative, the Company began to address accounts with substandard margins, resulting in$26 million of annualized benefits. - Global strategic partnerships – The Company continued to sign significant strategic partnerships, including with Amazon Web Services as a premier global alliance partner. Through this hyperscaler partnership, Kyndryl is providing solutions for enterprise customers and offering state-of-the-art customer solutions and services through the AWS Cloud Center of Excellence. This partnership is in addition to Kyndryl's alliances with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, signed in late 2021.
The Company has also announced strategic alliances in direct support of its practice areas, including: - An extended collaboration with SAP, leveraging SAP's Business Technology Platform and Kyndryl's deep expertise in artificial intelligence, data and cyber resiliency services to enable a cost-effective path to the cloud for customers
- A network and edge computing alliance with Nokia to provide LTE and 5G solutions for customers
- A partnership with Cloudera to help customers enable and drive hybrid cloud, multicloud and edge computing data initiatives
- An expanded relationship with Lenovo to develop and deliver scalable hybrid cloud solutions and edge computing implementations
- An alliance with Pure Storage to deliver application and infrastructure modernization, automation, multi-cloud management and containerization solutions
- An expanded global alliance with Dell Technologies to help customers use data optimization, infrastructure management services and a cyber resiliency solution to protect their critical business needs
- Technology certifications – The Company further increased its cloud-related capabilities, with Kyndryl having more than 17,500 hyperscaler certifications among its employees at the end of the quarter, a
10% increase from year-end. - Change in fiscal year – As previously announced, Kyndryl changed its fiscal year-end from December 31 to March 31, effective for the fiscal year that began April 1, 2022 and ends March 31, 2023. This change moves Kyndryl's year-end away from the holiday season and many of its customers' year-ends, which the Company believes will be better for its customers and customer relationships.
- Transaction-related costs – The Company's reported results reflect
$58 million of transaction-related costs associated with its spin-off, including systems migration and rebranding costs.
Outlook
Kyndryl is providing the following outlook for its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2022 and ending March 31, 2023:
- Double-digit constant-currency signings growth compared to pro forma signings in calendar year 2021
- Revenue of
$16.5 to$16.7 billion , which includes an approximately$1.0 billion or six-percentage-point negative currency impact. This represents a decline of (4)% to (3)% in constant currency compared to pro forma revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022 - Adjusted EBITDA margin of
13% to14% , reflecting currency headwinds and spin-off-related impacts on amortization, as discussed below - Adjusted pretax margin of
0% to1% , consistent with calendar year 2021 pro forma results

NON-GAAP METRIC DEFINITIONS AND RECONCILIATIONS
(dollars in millions, except signings)
We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. We also present certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide useful supplemental information to investors. We provide these non-GAAP financial measures as we believe it improves visibility to management decisions and their impacts on operational performance; enables better comparison to peer companies; and allows us to provide a long-term strategic view of the business going forward.
Constant-currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period over period. We define constant-currency revenues as total revenues excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate movements and use it to determine the constant-currency revenue growth on a year-over-year basis. Constant-currency revenues are calculated by translating current period revenues using corresponding prior-period exchange rates.
Adjusted pretax income is defined as pretax income excluding transaction-related costs, pension costs other than pension servicing costs and multi-employer plan costs, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, workforce rebalancing charges, impairment expense, significant litigation costs and foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries. Adjusted pretax margin is calculated by dividing adjusted pretax income, as defined above, by revenue.
Pro forma adjusted pretax income is adjusted pretax income, further adjusted for excess cost allocations from our former Parent, incremental costs to support independence and growth, other adjustments related to post-Separation commercial pricing agreements with IBM, the portion of the IBM business that was conveyed to Kyndryl and ongoing effects of the Separation-related transactions. Pro forma adjusted pretax margin is calculated by dividing pro forma adjusted pretax income, as defined above, by pro forma revenue.
Management uses adjusted pretax income, pro forma adjusted pretax income, adjusted pretax margin and pro forma pretax margin to evaluate our performance. Management also uses these metrics when publicly providing our business outlook. We believe adjusted pretax income, pro forma adjusted pretax income, adjusted pretax margin and pro forma adjusted pretax margin are helpful supplemental metrics for investors in evaluating our operating performance because they can be used by investors to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such measure, which can vary substantially from company to company. Adjusted pretax income, pro forma adjusted pretax income, adjusted pretax margin and pro forma adjusted pretax margin eliminate the impact of expenses that do not relate to core business performance. These measures are financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets and amortization of capitalized contract costs), transaction-related costs, pension costs other than pension servicing costs and multi-employer plan costs, stock-based compensation, workforce rebalancing charges, impairment expense, significant litigation costs, and foreign currency impacts of highly inflationary countries.
Pro forma adjusted EBITDA is adjusted EBITDA, further adjusted for excess cost allocations from our former Parent, incremental costs to support independence and growth, other adjustments related to post-Separation commercial pricing agreements with IBM, the portion of the IBM business that was conveyed to Kyndryl and ongoing effects of Separation-related transactions.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, by revenue. Pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing pro forma adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, by pro forma revenue.
Management uses adjusted EBITDA, pro forma adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin to evaluate our performance. Management also uses these metrics when publicly providing our business outlook. We believe they are a helpful supplemental measure to assist investors in evaluating our operating results as they exclude certain items whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of our business. Adjusted EBITDA, pro forma adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and pro forma adjusted EBITDA margin are financial measures that are not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or other measures of financial performance or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations after adding back transaction-related costs and workforce rebalancing payments less net capital expenditures. Management uses adjusted free cash flow as a measure to evaluate its operating results, plan strategic investments and assess our ability and need to incur and service debt. We believe adjusted free cash flow is a useful supplemental financial measure to aid investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service our debt. Adjusted free cash flow is a financial measure that is not recognized under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operations or liquidity derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Signings are defined by Kyndryl as an initial estimate of the value of a customer's commitment under a contract. We calculate this based on various considerations including the type and duration of the agreement as well as the presence of termination charges or wind-down costs. Contract extensions and increases in scope are treated as signings only to the extent of the incremental new value. Signings can vary over time due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the timing of signing a small number of larger outsourcing contracts. The conversion of signings into revenue may vary based on the types of services and solutions, customer decisions and other factors, which may include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic environment or external events. Pro forma signings reflect the portion of the IBM business that was conveyed to Kyndryl and the ongoing effects of the Separation-related transactions. Management believes that the estimated value of signings provide insight into the Company's potential future revenue, and management uses signings as a tool to monitor the performance of the business including the business' ability to attract new customers and sell additional scope into our existing customer base, as well as views signings as useful decision-making information for investors.
