Summary of Fourth-Quarter 2020 Business Results

Company:

Fourth-quarter revenue was up 5.5% year over year (4.7% on a constant-currency⁽¹⁾ basis) to $576.9 million, versus $546.8 million in the prior-year period, and was up 16.5% sequentially. Non-GAAP adjusted revenue⁽⁴⁾ was up 5.9% year over year to $576.9 million, relative to $544.6 million in the prior-year period, and was up 16.5% sequentially. These results reflect ongoing improvement and stabilization in COVID-disrupted portions of the business such as Field Services, BPO and Travel & Transportation, along with stronger ClearPath Forward^® renewal volumes than expected. Fourth-quarter TCV was up 22% year over year.

Fourth-quarter operating profit was up over 300% year over year to $47.7 million, versus $10.3 million in the prior-year period, and was up 72.2% sequentially. Operating profit margin was up 640 bps year over year to 8.3% and was up 270 bps sequentially. Total company non-GAAP operating profit margin was up 790 basis points year over year to 14.0% and was up 550 bps sequentially.  

The company recognized $223.9 million of after-tax non-GAAP charges in the fourth quarter 2020, including charges related to post-retirement obligations ($166.0 million) and cost reductions, relative to charges of $48.2 million in the prior-year period. As a result, net loss from continuing operations was $174.7 million versus $31.0 million in the prior-year period, and diluted loss per share was $2.77, compared to $0.50 in the prior-year period. Non-GAAP net income⁽⁹⁾ was up 186% year over year to $49.2 million, versus $17.2 million in the prior-year period, and was up 42.2% sequentially. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share⁽⁹⁾ was up 170% year over year to $0.73, versus $0.27 in the prior-year period, and was up 43.1% sequentially.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽⁸⁾ was up 65.8% year over year to $124.2 million, versus $74.9 million in the prior-year period, and was up 67.8% sequentially. Net income margin was (30.3)%, compared to (5.7)% in the prior-year period, driven by the charges noted above. Adjusted EBITDA margin was up 770 bps year over year to 21.5% and was up 660 bps sequentially.

The company made $487.7 million in postretirement contributions during the fourth quarter of 2020, relative to $27.1 million in the prior-year period. These contributions reduced the pension deficit and future required cash contributions, but resulted in cash used in operations of $355.4 million, versus $125.7 million provided by operations in the prior-year period and free cash flow⁽¹⁰⁾ of $(390.4) million, relative to $95.6 million in the prior-year period. The company received tax credits in the prior-year period versus having required tax payments in the current period, which resulted in adjusted free cash flow⁽¹¹⁾ of $104.6 million versus $112.0 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted free cash flow was up $52.2 million sequentially. At December 31, 2020, the company had $898.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, versus $538.8 million at year-end 2019. 

Services:

Services non-GAAP adjusted revenue was $445.0 million, relative to $456.7 million in the prior-year period, down 2.6% year over year (down 3.0% in constant-currency), and was up 4.5% sequentially. COVID-disrupted businesses improved and stabilized relative to the third quarter, though volumes were still down year over year as were volumes in the company's check-processing JV, as expected.  Services gross profit margin was up 320 bps year over year to 18.4%. Non-GAAP adjusted Services gross profit margin⁽⁶⁾ was up 360 bps year over year to 18.4%. Services operating profit margin was up 260 basis points year over year to 1.6%. Non-GAAP adjusted Services operating profit⁽⁷⁾ margin was up 310 bps year over year to 1.6%. Services backlog was $3.4 billion, up 3.0% versus the end of the third quarter.

Technology gross profit margin was up 130 bps year over year to 73.2% and was up 1350 bps sequentially. Technology operating profit margin was up 460 bps year over year to 54.3% and was up 2120 bps sequentially. The improvements to revenue and margin were driven by higher volumes on ClearPath Forward renewals in the period than anticipated.

Summary of Full-Year 2020 Business Results

Company:

2020 revenue was $2.03 billion, versus $2.22 billion in 2019, down 8.8% year over year (7.7% on a constant-currency⁽¹⁾ basis), better than the company's stated expectations for a year-over-year decline of 10%. Non-GAAP adjusted revenue⁽⁴⁾ was $2.03 billion, relative to $2.21 billion in 2019, down 8.2% year over year. Year-over-year comparisons reflect the impact of COVID-disrupted portions of the business such as Field Services, BPO and Travel & Transportation, as well as anticipated declines in the company's check-processing JV. Full-year TCV was up 8% year over year. 

2020 operating profit was $87.0 million, versus $137.9 million in 2019. Operating profit margin was 4.3%, versus 6.2% in 2019. The year-over-year decline in operating profit and margin was driven by $62.2 million of cost-reduction charges incurred during 2020, versus $11.2 million in 2019. Total company non-GAAP operating profit margin was up 30 basis points year over year to 7.5%, above stated company expectations of 5.2% to 6.7%.   

The company recognized $392.5 million of after-tax non-GAAP charges in 2020, including charges related to post-retirement obligations ($237.7 million) and cost reductions, versus $153.4 million in 2019. As a result, net loss from continuing operations was $317.7 million versus $92.2 million in 2019, and diluted loss per share was $5.05, compared to $1.65 in 2019. Non-GAAP net income⁽⁹⁾ was $74.8 million, versus $61.2 million in 2019. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share⁽⁹⁾ was up 6.7% year over year to $1.12, versus $1.05 in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽⁸⁾ was up 0.4% year over year to $319.8 million, relative to $318.5 million in 2019. Net income margin was (15.7)%, compared to (4.1)% in 2019, driven by the charges noted above. Adjusted EBITDA margin was up 140 basis points year over year to 15.8%, relative to 14.4% in 2019.

During 2020, the company made $832.2 million of pension contributions versus $109.4 million in 2019. These contributions reduced the pension deficit and future required cash contributions, but resulted in cash used in operations of $681.2 million, versus $123.9 million provided by operations in 2019, and free cash flow⁽¹⁰⁾ of $(811.3) million, relative to $(35.9) million in 2019. Adjusted free cash flow⁽¹¹⁾ was up 59.6% year over year to $42.6 million.  

Services:

Services revenue was $1.69 billion, relative to $1.89 billion in 2019, down 10.6% year over year (9.4% in constant-currency). Services non-GAAP adjusted revenue was $1.69 billion, relative to $1.88 billion in 2019. As noted above, the year-over-year declines were due to the COVID-related disruptions during 2020, as well as expected declines in the company's check-processing JV. Services gross profit margin was up 30 bps year over year to 16.5%. Non-GAAP adjusted Services gross profit margin⁽⁶⁾ was up 90 bps year over year to 16.4%. Services operating profit margin was 0.7%, versus 1.1% in 2019. Non-GAAP adjusted Services operating profit⁽⁷⁾ margin was up 50 bps year over year to 0.7%.

Technology:

Technology revenue was up 1.0% year over year (2.2% in constant currency) to $333.4 million, relative to $330.1 million in 2019, exceeding the company's stated expectations as a result of higher volumes on ClearPath Forward renewals than anticipated. Year-over-year margin comparisons were largely driven by increased amortization costs, as well as higher third-party hardware sales in 2020, which come with lower margins. As a result, Technology gross profit margin was 65.0%, compared to 69.0% in 2019, and Technology operating profit margin was 40.8%, versus 46.1% in 2019.

⁽¹⁾ Constant currency – The company refers to growth rates in constant currency or on a constant currency basis so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the company's business performance from one period to another. Constant currency is calculated by retranslating current and prior period results at a consistent rate.

⁽²⁾ Pipeline – Pipeline represents prospective sale opportunities being pursued or for which bids have been submitted.  There is no assurance that pipeline will translate into recorded revenue.

⁽³⁾ Total Contract Value – TCV is the estimated total contractual revenue related to contracts signed in the period without regard for cancellation terms. New business TCV represents TCV attributable to new scope for existing clients and new logo contracts.

Non-GAAP and Other Information

Although appropriate under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the company's results reflect revenue and charges that the company believes are not indicative of its ongoing operations and that can make its revenue, profitability and liquidity results difficult to compare to prior periods, anticipated future periods, or to its competitors' results. These items consist of certain portions of revenue, post-retirement, debt exchange and extinguishment and cost-reduction and other expenses. Management believes each of these items can distort the visibility of trends associated with the company's ongoing performance. Management also believes that the evaluation of the company's financial performance can be enhanced by use of supplemental presentation of its results that exclude the impact of these items in order to enhance consistency and comparativeness with prior or future period results. The following measures are often provided and utilized by the company's management, analysts, and investors to enhance comparability of year-over-year results, as well as to compare results to other companies in our industry.

⁽⁴⁾  Non-GAAP adjusted revenue – In 2019 and 2020, the company's non-GAAP results reflect adjustments to exclude certain revenue and related profit relating to reimbursements from the company's check-processing JV partners for restructuring expenses included as part of the company's restructuring program.

⁽⁵⁾ Non-GAAP operating profit – The company recorded pretax post-retirement expense and pretax charges in connection with cost-reduction activities, debt exchange/extinguishment and other expenses. For the company, non-GAAP operating profit excluded these items. The company believes that this profitability measure is more indicative of the company's operating results and aligns those results to the company's external guidance, which is used by the company's management to allocate resources and may be used by analysts and investors to gauge the company's ongoing performance. During 2019 and 2020, the company included the non-GAAP adjustments discussed in (4) herein.

⁽⁶⁾  Non-GAAP adjusted Services gross profit – During 2019 and 2020, the company included the adjustments discussed in (4) herein.

⁽⁷⁾  Non-GAAP adjusted Services operating profit – During 2019 and 2020, the company included the adjustments discussed in (4) herein.

⁽⁸⁾ EBITDA & adjusted EBITDA – Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") is calculated by starting with net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Unisys Corporation common shareholders and adding or subtracting the following items: net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, interest expense (net of interest income), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes post-retirement, debt exchange/extinguishment, and cost-reduction and other expenses, non-cash share-based expense, and other (income) expense adjustment. In order to provide investors with additional understanding of the company's operating results, these charges are excluded from the adjusted EBITDA calculation. During 2019 and 2020, the company included the adjustments discussed in (4) herein.

⁽⁹⁾ Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share – The company has recorded post-retirement expense and charges in connection with debt exchange/extinguishment and cost-reduction activities and other expenses. Management believes that investors may have a better understanding of the company's performance and return to shareholders by excluding these charges from the GAAP diluted earnings/loss per share calculations. The tax amounts presented for these items for the calculation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share include the current and deferred tax expense and benefits recognized under GAAP for these amounts. During 2019 and 2020, the company included the adjustments discussed in (4) herein.

⁽¹⁰⁾ Free cash flow – The company defines free cash flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. Management believes this liquidity measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from on-going operating activities in excess of amounts used for reinvestment.

⁽¹¹⁾ Adjusted free cash flow – Because inclusion of the company's post-retirement contributions, discontinued operations and cost-reduction charges/reimbursements and other payments in free cash flow may distort the visibility of the company's ability to generate cash flow from its operations without the impact of these non-operational costs, management believes that investors may be interested in adjusted free cash flow, which provides free cash flow before these payments. This liquidity measure was provided to analysts and investors in the form of external guidance and is used by management to measure operating liquidity.
