Financial Results for First Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 compared to First Quarter Fiscal Year 2022

Total revenues increased 8% to $1,283 million from $1,193 million in the prior year period.

Recurring revenues increased $56 million, or 7%, from $750 million. Organic growth of 9% was driven by 5pts of Net New Business and 5pts of Internal Growth. The growth in Net New Business contributed to growth in both ICS and GTO Recurring revenues. Internal Growth was driven primarily by growth within our GTO business.
Recurring revenue growth constant currency was 9% as changes in foreign currency reduced Recurring revenue growth by 2pts.
Event-driven revenues decreased $14 million, or 18%, to $63 million, primarily due to the decrease in volume of mutual fund proxy communications.
Distribution revenues increased $48 million, or 13%, to $415 million, primarily driven by the impact of current year postage rate increase of approximately $38 million, as well as an increase from higher volumes of mailings in our Customer Communications business.

Operating income was $88 million, a decrease of $16 million, or 15%. Operating income margin decreased to 6.8%, compared to 8.7% for the prior year period, due to lower event-driven revenues, an increase in low-margin distribution revenues, growth investments and other expenses, more than offsetting growth in Recurring revenues and lower amortization expense from acquired intangible assets.

Adjusted Operating income was $150 million, a decrease of $27 million, or 15%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower event-driven revenues, growth investments and other spending, partially offset by higher Recurring revenues. Adjusted Operating income margin decreased to 11.7% compared to 14.8% for the prior year period. An increase in pass through distribution revenues negatively impacted margins by approximately 90 basis points.

Interest expense, net was $27 million, an increase of $4 million, primarily due to an increase in interest expense from higher borrowing costs, partially offset by savings from the Company's cross-currency swap transaction.
The effective tax rate was 9.0% compared to 14.1% in the prior year period. The decrease in the effective tax rate was driven by the excess tax benefits related to equity compensation and other discrete tax benefits, relative to pre-tax income compared to the prior year period.
Net earnings decreased 25% to $50 million and Adjusted Net earnings decreased 21% to $100 million.

Diluted earnings per share decreased 26% to $0.42, compared to $0.57 in the prior year period, and
Adjusted earnings per share decreased 21% to $0.84, compared to $1.07 in the prior year period.

Segment and Other Results for First Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 compared to First Quarter Fiscal Year 2022

Investor Communication Solutions ("ICS")

ICS total revenues were $921 million, an increase of $67 million, or 8%.

Recurring revenues increased $33 million or 8%, to $443 million. Organic growth contributed 9pts of growth from a combination of new sales and Internal Growth.
Recurring revenue growth constant currency was 9% as changes in foreign currency reduced Recurring revenue growth by 1pt.
Event-driven revenues decreased $14 million, or 18%, to $63 million, primarily due to the decrease in volume of mutual fund proxy communications.
Distribution revenues increased $48 million, or 13%, to $415 million primarily driven by the impact of current year postage rate increase of approximately $38 million, as well as an increase from higher volumes of mailings in our Customer communications business.

ICS earnings before income taxes declined $22 million, or 27% to $60 million as segment operating expenses rose 12%, or $90 million, to $861 million. The earnings benefit from higher Recurring revenue was offset by lower event-driven revenue, higher postage and distribution expenses, and increased costs from prior year investments. Amortization expense from acquired intangibles decreased by $5 million to $15 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. Pre-tax margins decreased to 6.5% from 9.7%.

Global Technology and Operations ("GTO")

GTO Recurring revenues were $363 million, an increase of $23 million, or 7%. The increase was attributable to 10pts of organic growth driven by a combination of Internal Growth and new sales.
Recurring revenue growth constant currency was 10% as changes in foreign currency reduced Recurring revenue growth by 4pts.
GTO earnings before income taxes were $40 million, an increase of $22 million, or 117%. The increase was driven primarily by the $23 million growth in Recurring revenues compared to the prior year period. Pre-tax margins increased to 11.1% from 5.5%. Amortization expense from acquired intangibles decreased by $7 million to $40 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 period due to a combination of the impact of foreign exchange and the run-off of older acquisitions.

Other

Other loss before income tax increased to $45 million from $23 million in the prior year period, primarily due to $8 million of higher general and administrative expenses, $8 million in higher net interest expense and investment losses, and $3 million in Russia-Related Exit Costs.

Change in Foreign Exchange Rates

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company changed reporting for segment revenues, segment earnings (loss) before income taxes, segment amortization of acquired intangibles and purchased intellectual property, and Closed sales to reflect the impact of actual foreign exchange rates applicable to the individual periods presented. The presentation of these metrics for the prior periods has been changed to conform to the current period presentation. Total consolidated revenues and earnings before income taxes were not impacted. For additional information, please see the Company's Form 8-K filed on September 26, 2022.

Explanation and Reconciliation of the Company's Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company's results in this press release are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP except where otherwise noted. In certain circumstances, results have been presented that are not generally accepted accounting principles measures ("Non-GAAP"). These Non-GAAP measures are Adjusted Operating income, Adjusted Operating income margin, Adjusted Net earnings, Adjusted earnings per share, Free cash flow, and Recurring revenue growth constant currency. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results.

The Company believes our Non-GAAP financial measures help investors understand how management plans, measures and evaluates the Company's business performance. Management believes that Non-GAAP measures provide consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of the Company's operating results and trends by providing an additional basis for comparison. Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to, among other things, evaluate our ongoing operations, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. In addition, and as a consequence of the importance of these Non-GAAP financial measures in managing our business, the Company's Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors incorporates Non-GAAP financial measures in the evaluation process for determining management compensation.

Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share

These Non-GAAP measures are adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items the exclusion of which management believes provides insight regarding our ongoing operating performance. Depending on the period presented, these adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain of the following items: (i) Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, (ii) Acquisition and Integration Costs, (iii) Real Estate Realignment and Covid-19 Related Expenses, and (iv) Russia-Related Exit Costs. Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property represents non-cash amortization expenses associated with the Company's acquisition activities. Acquisition and Integration Costs represent certain transaction and integration costs associated with the Company's acquisition activities. Real Estate Realignment and Covid-19 Related Expenses are comprised of two major components: Real Estate Realignment Expenses, and Covid-19 Related Expenses. Real Estate Realignment Expenses are expenses associated with the exit of certain of the Company's leased facilities in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, which consist of the impairment of certain right of use assets, leasehold improvements and equipment, as well as other related facility exit expenses directly resulting from, and attributable to, the exit of these leased facilities. Covid-19 Related Expense are direct and incremental expenses incurred by the Company to protect the health and safety of Broadridge associates during the Covid-19 outbreak, including expenses associated with monitoring the temperatures for associates entering our facilities, enhancing the safety of our office environment in preparation for workers to return to Company facilities on a more regular basis, ensuring proper social distancing in our production facilities, personal protective equipment, enhanced cleaning measures in our facilities, and other safety related expenses. Russia-Related Exit Costs are direct and incremental costs associated with the Company's wind down of business activities in Russia in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including relocation-related expenses of impacted associates.

We exclude Acquisition and Integration Costs, Real Estate Realignment and Covid-19 Related Expenses, and Russia-Related Exit Costs from our Adjusted Operating income (as applicable) and other adjusted earnings measures because excluding such information provides us with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of our business and enhances comparability across fiscal reporting periods, as these items are not reflective of our underlying operations or performance. We also exclude the impact of Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, as these non-cash amounts are significantly impacted by the timing and size of individual acquisitions and do not factor into the Company's capital allocation decisions, management compensation metrics or multi-year objectives. Furthermore, management believes that this adjustment enables better comparison of our results as Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property will not recur in future periods once such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Although we exclude Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property from our adjusted earnings measures, our management believes that it is important for investors to understand that these intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets.

Free Cash Flow

In addition to the Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, we provide Free cash flow information because we consider Free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated that could be used for dividends, share repurchases, strategic acquisitions, other investments, as well as debt servicing. Free cash flow is a Non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Company as Net cash flows provided by operating activities less Capital expenditures as well as Software purchases and capitalized internal use software.

Recurring revenue growth constant currency

As a multi-national company, we are subject to variability of our reported U.S. dollar results due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The exclusion of the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations from our Recurring revenue growth, or what we refer to as amounts expressed "on a constant currency basis," is a Non-GAAP measure. We believe that excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations from our Recurring revenue growth provides additional information that enables enhanced comparison to prior periods.

Changes in Recurring revenue growth expressed on a constant currency basis are presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the comparative year, rather than at the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year.
