Insights

TriNet delivered modest revenue growth despite WSE decline, with compressed margins but stable outlook, maintaining full-year guidance.

TriNet's Q1 2025 results show a company maintaining revenue stability amid operational challenges. Total revenues increased 1% to $1.3 billion, despite a 2% decline in Average Worksite Employees to approximately 341,000. This suggests improved revenue per employee despite the shrinking customer base.

Profitability metrics reveal more pronounced pressure points. Net income decreased to $85 million ($1.71 per diluted share) from $91 million ($1.78 per diluted share) year-over-year. More significantly, Adjusted EBITDA fell 10% to $162 million, with margin compression from 14.2% to 12.6% - a substantial 160 basis point decline.

Management's strategic approach centers on three pillars: customer care, benefits offering repricing, and growth/efficiency investments. The benefits repricing initiative is particularly noteworthy as it directly addresses the Insurance Cost Ratio, which management guides to 90-92% for the full year.

Despite Q1's compressed margins, TriNet maintained its full-year guidance, suggesting management anticipates improved performance in subsequent quarters. The company's robust capital return program returned $102 million to shareholders through repurchases (1.2 million shares) and dividends, demonstrating confidence in their financial foundation despite current headwinds.

CEO Mike Simonds' assertion of confidence in their "large market opportunity" and ability to "grow share over the medium term" signals a belief that current challenges are navigable rather than structural. The reiteration of full-year guidance provides stability and suggests Q1 results, while showing some softness, remain aligned with management's annual expectations.

In addition to the selected financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), we monitor other non-GAAP financial measures that we use to manage our business, to make planning decisions, to allocate resources and to use as performance measures in our executive compensation plan. These key financial measures provide an additional view of our operational performance over the long term and provide information that we use to maintain and grow our business.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance the understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. It is not meant to be considered in isolation from, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Measure

Definition

How We Use The Measure

Adjusted EBITDA

• Net income, excluding the effects of:

- income tax provision,

- interest expense, bank fees and other,

- depreciation,

- amortization of intangible assets,

- stock based compensation expense,

- amortization of cloud computing arrangements, and

- restructuring costs

 

• Provides period-to-period comparisons on a
consistent basis and an understanding as to
how our management evaluates the
effectiveness of our business strategies by
excluding certain non-recurring costs, which
include restructuring costs, as well as certain
non-cash charges such as depreciation and
amortization, and stock-based compensation
and certain impairment charges recognized
based on the estimated fair values. We
believe these charges are either not directly
resulting from our core operations or not
indicative of our ongoing operations

• Enhances comparisons to the prior period
and, accordingly, facilitates the development
of future projections and earnings growth
prospects

• Provides a measure, among others, used in
the determination of incentive compensation
for management

• We also sometimes refer to Adjusted
EBITDA margin, which is the ratio of Adjusted
EBITDA to total revenues

Adjusted Net Income

• Net income, excluding the effects of:

- effective income tax rate (1),

- stock based compensation expense,

- amortization of intangible assets, net,

- non-cash interest expense,

- restructuring costs, and

- the income tax effect (at our effective tax
rate (1) of these pre-tax adjustments.)

• Provides information to our stockholders
and board of directors to understand how our
management evaluates our business, to
monitor and evaluate our operating results,
and analyze profitability of our ongoing
operations and trends on a consistent basis
by excluding certain non-cash charges

Free Cash Flow

• Net cash provided by operating activities
reduced by capital expenditures

• Provides information on the strength of our
liquidity and available cash

• Provides management with a measure to
assist in making planning decisions, evaluate
our performance and allocate resources

(1)

Non-GAAP effective tax rate is 25.0% for the first quarters and full years of 2025 and 2024, which excludes the income tax impact from stock-based compensation, changes in uncertain tax positions, and nonrecurring benefits or expenses from federal legislative changes.
