Significant balance sheet improvement driven by divestiture of commercial business

Record high CSB recurring monthly revenue balance driven by strong retention

Improved capital efficiency with record revenue payback of 2.0 years

Continued innovation in core smart home security markets and rationalization of solar footprint

BOCA RATON, Fla., Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADT Inc. (NYSE:ADT), the most trusted brand in smart home and small business security, today reported results for the third quarter of 2023.

Financial highlights for the third quarter of 2023 are listed below. Except for cash flow measures, prior period amounts have been recast to exclude the commercial business, consistent with continuing operations GAAP presentation following the sale of the commercial business. Variances are on a year-over-year basis unless otherwise noted.

Total revenue of $1.2 billion with end-of-period recurring monthly revenue (RMR) up 3% to $350 million
High customer retention with gross revenue attrition maintaining 12.9%
Record revenue payback of 2.0 years
GAAP loss from continuing operations of $21 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, up $148 million, which includes $88 million negative impact from Solar segment goodwill impairment in the current quarter, compared to $201 million in the prior year quarter
Adjusted income from continuing operations of $69 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, down $3 million
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $583 million, flat compared to prior year with CSB Adjusted EBITDA of $623 million, up 6%

"ADT's core security and smart home business delivered a strong third quarter with recurring monthly revenue topping $350 million, revenue payback at a record low of 2.0 years and continued progress in product development. The solar business continued to perform below our expectations and we've undertaken a substantial restructuring in an effort to drive more positive results," said ADT Chairman, President and CEO, Jim DeVries. "In October, ADT closed on the previously announced divestiture of the commercial business with all net proceeds allocated to debt reduction. Additionally, following this transaction and a credit rating upgrade, ADT refinanced approximately $1.4 billion of debt, extending the maturity from 2026 to 2030 and reducing borrowing costs. Closing out 2023, ADT is in a position of strength, focused on continued value creation, growing cash flow, and optimized capital allocation."

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

Foundation for Growth

Continued growth of RMR – The end-of-period RMR balance was a record at $350 million, representing a 3% increase over the prior year period. Over 85% of total Consumer and Small Business (CSB) revenue was generated from this durable recurring revenue.
Maintained near record customer retention and improved revenue payback – With strong customer satisfaction, trailing 12-month gross customer revenue attrition was 12.9%, flat versus the prior year period, and revenue payback ended the third quarter of 2023 at a record 2.0 years, reflecting a 0.2 year improvement versus the prior year.

Unlocking Shareholder Value

Completed sale of commercial business – On Oct. 2, 2023, the Company completed the previously announced divestiture of its commercial business for a purchase price of approximately $1.6 billion.
Balance sheet fortification – Following the close of the third quarter, the Company significantly reduced leverage, improved borrowing costs and extended debt maturities. Additionally, improvements in both the balance sheet and operations of the business were recognized in a corporate rating upgrade by Moody's.
- Significant debt reduction – Net proceeds from the commercial divestiture and cash on hand used or committed to significantly reduce the Company's leverage by approximately $2.0 billion in 2023.
- Successful refinancing – The Company refinanced approximately $1.4 billion of debt extending the maturity from 2026 to 2030 and reducing borrowing costs by approximately 35 basis points.
- Credit rating upgrade – Moody's upgraded ADT's corporate credit rating to ‘Ba3' from ‘B1' with a stable rating outlook in recognition of the Company's debt reduction and improving operating metrics for the core residential business.
Solar restructuring – The Company is taking immediate and decisive action to streamline the Solar business by focusing on the top performing markets and rationalizing the overhead and infrastructure of the business accordingly.

Innovative Offerings

ADT Home Security Program for State Farm expands – ADT's program for State Farm customers continues to ramp and is currently available in 13 states. In those states, State Farm homeowners can participate in the program to receive ADT home security products and professional monitoring at a reduced cost.
ADT+ professional installation – The Company expects to begin a phased rollout of the ADT+ app to pro-install customers in the fourth quarter. With this rollout, our customers will have next generation hardware and technology through the ADT+ app which will be the conduit for future innovation and premium differentiation.

Unrivaled Safety

Alarm Scoring pilot activated – ADT activated its Alarm Scoring pilot program in five U.S. cities. This innovative system offers a uniform and reliable approach for categorizing alarm severity levels. Alarm scoring enhances the accuracy of assessing potential life or property threats and gives first responders the most precise and crucial alarm data for improved emergency responses.

Premium Experience

Virtual Assistance Wifi Fix – In addition to the ADT Virtual Assistance program, the Company rolled out the ADT Wifi Fix app. The tool allows virtual customer service agents to diagnose and address any Wifi issues impacting customers' ADT equipment or other devices.

Progress on our ESG Journey

Supporting Fight Blight Bmore – ADT made a $100,000 donation to charity partner Fight Blight Bmore, a nonprofit focused on creating safe, smart and sustainable spaces in West Baltimore to combat the city's blight.
ADT and Miami Marlins "Rookies" program – As part of our existing partnership, ADT and the Miami Marlins teamed up to host the first Marlins Rookies program, a safe place for South Florida youth to stay active while developing social and emotional competencies.

2023 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

The Company is revising its financial guidance for 2023, primarily to account for the recent divestiture of the commercial business, which is now reported as discontinued operations, and updated operating performance. Strong CSB performance is mostly offsetting weaker Solar underperformance, which has allowed ADT to maintain slightly narrowed guidance within the prior ranges after adjusting for the divestiture.

Total Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS reflect only the Company's continuing operations. Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) and Adjusted Free Cash Flow include amounts related to the commercial business through the date of sale, consistent with the presentation on the GAAP Statement of Cash Flows.

The Company is not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP financial measures other than Total Revenue or a quantitative reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures for its non-GAAP financial guidance shown above because the GAAP measures cannot be reliably estimated and the reconciliations cannot be performed without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items that the Company cannot reasonably predict at this time but which may be material.

Adjusted EBITDA	$	623		$	590		$	34	6	%
Adjusted EBITDA Margin (as a % of Total CSB Revenue)		53	%		53	%

Total CSB revenue was $1,180 million for the third quarter, up 6% versus the prior year. Monitoring and related services (M&S) revenue increased year-over-year resulting primarily from higher average pricing. Security installation, product, and other increased year-over-year resulting primarily from an increase in the volume of transactions under the customer-owned equipment ownership model and higher amortization of deferred subscriber acquisition revenue.

CSB Adjusted EBITDA increased 6% to $623 million in the third quarter compared to the prior year period. These improvements were driven by revenue growth, net of associated costs, and enhanced cost discipline. CSB Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter includes receipts from Google related to our joint marketing efforts.

Solar

Adjusted EBITDA Margin (as a % of Total Solar Revenue)	(71		)%	(4		)%
Note: M&S revenue is not applicable to the Solar segment.

Total Solar revenue for the third quarter was $58 million, down 68% versus the third quarter of last year. This performance was driven by lower installations and weaker sales performance.

Solar Adjusted EBITDA was a $41 million loss for the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by the lower revenue discussed above.

The Company announced today it is taking decisive action to streamline the Solar business to focus on the top performing markets and rationalize the overhead and infrastructure of the business accordingly. As part of this plan, we are taking immediate steps to restructure our solar footprint, reducing from 38 to 16 branches. The remaining branches represented approximately 70% of Solar revenue in the third quarter. These actions are expected to remove more than $80 million of annualized costs from the Solar business.

As a result of continuing challenges in our Solar business and continued deterioration of macroeconomic and industry conditions, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $88 million during the third quarter. Following the impairment, the balance of goodwill in the Solar reporting unit is zero. This goodwill impairment charge has been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the third quarter of 2023 was $446 million, down $52 million or 10% versus the third quarter of last year, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including the benefit of interest rate swaps) increased by $28 million versus the prior year period. During the third quarter, the Company had improved CSB operating profitability and lower net subscriber investments versus the prior year period. These improvements, which benefited from execution on our cost reduction initiatives and receipts from Google related to our joint marketing efforts, were partially offset by the performance of our Solar business.

The Company returned $32 million to shareholders in dividends during the third quarter of 2023.

On Oct. 5, 2023, the Company repaid $1,318 million of First Lien Senior Secured Term Loan B due 2026 using proceeds from the divestiture of its commercial business. On Oct. 18, 2023, the Company provided notice to redeem in December 2023 $500 million of First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2024 using the $200 million remaining net proceeds from the commercial divestiture and cash on hand.

On Oct. 13, 2023 the Company amended and extended the remaining $1,391 million of First Lien Senior Secured Term Loan B due 2026 with $1,375 million of First Lien Senior Secured Term Loan B due 2030 at approximately 35 basis points in lower borrowing expense, and repaid approximately $16 million from cash on hand.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

Effective Nov. 2, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.035 per share to holders of the Company's Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of record as of Dec. 14, 2023. This dividend will be paid on Jan. 9, 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps), Adjusted Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share (or, Adjusted EPS), and Net Leverage Ratio are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Measures" section for the definitions of these terms and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures. The operating metrics such as Gross Customer Revenue Attrition, Unit Count, RMR, Gross RMR Additions, and Revenue Payback are approximated as there may be variations to reported results in each period due to certain adjustments the Company might make in connection with the integration over several periods of acquired companies that calculated these metrics differently, or otherwise, including periodic reassessments and refinements in the ordinary course of business. These refinements, for example, may include changes due to systems conversion or historical methodology differences in legacy systems. Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, results of the commercial business are presented as discontinued operations. Except for cash flow measures, and unless otherwise noted, amounts herein have been recast to reflect the results of the Company's continuing operations.

ADT sometimes uses information ("non-GAAP financial measures") that is derived from the consolidated financial statements, but that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Under SEC rules, non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.

The following information includes definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures used in this release, reasons our management believes these measures are useful to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations, additional purposes, if any, for which our management uses the non-GAAP financial measures, and limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented following the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The limitations of non-GAAP financial measures are best addressed by considering these measures in conjunction with the appropriate GAAP measures. In addition, computations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

With regard to our financial guidance for 2023, the Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to income (loss) from continuing operations, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) to net cash provided by operating activities, which are the most directly comparable respective GAAP measures. These GAAP measures cannot be reliably predicted or estimated without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as the adjustment of items used in the following reconciliations. Additionally, information about other adjusting items that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, the Company is presenting the results of the commercial business as a discontinued operation (with the exception of certain costs previously reflected in the Commercial segment that do not qualify to be presented as discontinued operations and are now reflected in the CSB segment). Except for Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) which, consistent with the presentation of the GAAP measure net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, continue to reflect the results of both continuing and discontinued operations (through the date of sale), and unless otherwise noted, non-GAAP measures herein have been recast for prior periods to reflect the results of only the Company's continuing operations and to exclude the results of discontinued operations related to the commercial business to conform with the current period presentation.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations ("Adjusted EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations ("Adjusted EBITDA Margin")

We believe the presentation of our non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA, provides useful information to investors about our operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-routine items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items that are not core to our operations. Further, we believe this provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as income or loss from continuing operations adjusted for (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets; (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions; (v) share-based compensation expense; (vi) merger, restructuring, integration, and other items such as separation costs; (vii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (viii) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue earned; (ix) adjustments related to acquisitions, such as contingent consideration and purchase accounting adjustments, or dispositions; (x) impairment charges; and (xi) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as changes in fair value of certain financial instruments or financing and consent fees.

There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA as it does not reflect certain significant items which directly affect our income or loss from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP measure).

The discussion above is also applicable to Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue.

Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps

We define Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less cash outlays related to capital expenditures. We define capital expenditures to include accounts purchased through our network of authorized dealers or third parties outside of our authorized dealer network, subscriber system asset expenditures, and purchases of property and equipment. These items are subtracted from cash flows from operating activities because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities.

We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Free Cash Flow adjusted for net cash flows related to (i) net proceeds from our consumer receivables facility; (ii) financing and consent fees; (iii) restructuring and integration; (iv) integration-related capital expenditures; (v) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue collected; and (vi) other payments or receipts that may mask our operating results or business trends. Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps reflects Adjusted Free Cash Flow plus net cash settlements on interest rate swaps presented within net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.

We believe the presentations of these non-GAAP measures are appropriate to provide investors with useful information about our ability to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. We believe the presentation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow is also a useful measure of our cash flow attributable to our normal business activities, inclusive of the net cash flows associated with the acquisition of subscribers, as well as our ability to repay other debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. Further, Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps is a useful measure of Adjusted Free Cash Flow inclusive of all cash interest.

There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures adjust for cash items that are ultimately within management's discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash available than the most comparable GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.

The non-GAAP measures in the table below include cash flows associated with both continuing and discontinued operations consistent with the applicable GAAP presentation on the Statement of Cash Flows.

Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations ("Adjusted Income (Loss)") and Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per Share from Continuing Operations ("Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per Share") (or, Adjusted EPS)

We define Adjusted Income (Loss) as income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for (i) merger, restructuring, integration, and other items such as separation costs; (ii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (iii) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue earned; (iv) share-based compensation expense; (v) unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts not designated as hedges; (vi) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as changes in fair value of certain financial instruments, impairment charges, financing and consent fees, or acquisition-related adjustments; and (vii) the impact these adjusted items have on taxes.

Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share is Adjusted Income (Loss) divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock.

We believe Adjusted Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share are benchmarks used by analysts and investors who follow the industry for comparison of its performance with other companies in the industry, although our measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

There are material limitations to using these measures, as they do not reflect certain significant items which directly affect our income (loss) from continuing operations and related per share amounts (the most comparable GAAP measures).

Prior to the third quarter of 2023, the Company presented Adjusted Net Income along with a reconciliation to GAAP net income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share along with a reconciliation to GAAP Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. As the Company did not report discontinued operations prior to the third quarter of 2023, net income (loss) reflected all of the Company's operations, including the commercial business. Since the beginning of the third quarter of 2023, results of the commercial business are presented in accordance with GAAP as discontinued operations. Therefore, the Company now presents Adjusted Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Income (Loss) per share along with reconciliations to GAAP income (loss) from continuing operations and GAAP Diluted income (loss) from continuing operations per share, respectively, as the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
