(1) Fundamental net income and earnings per share is GAAP net (loss) income and (loss) earnings per share excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, net of deferred taxes, transaction-related costs and stock-based compensation charges. In addition, the calculation of fundamental net income and earnings per share for 3Q 2011 and F2011 also excludes an impairment loss, net of deferred taxes, and amortization of facility fees related to the KSNET acquisition. |
|||||
The following factors impacted the comparability of our 3Q 2011 and 3Q 2010 results:
- Impairment loss related to Net1 UTA customer relationships: The Company recorded an impairment loss of $41.8 million related to Net1 UTA's customer relationships, which resulted in an operating loss for the quarter. The Company also reversed a deferred tax liability of $10.4 million associated with these customer relationships. As a result, the Company's reported net income was reduced by $31.3 million;
- SASSA price and volume reductions: The Company's contract with SASSA has reduced its revenue and operating income, before impairment loss, as a result of the previously announced price and volume reductions;
- Favorable impact from the weakness of the US dollar: The US dollar depreciated by 7% compared to the ZAR during the third quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to fiscal 2010 which positively impacted the Company's reported results;
- Increased revenue from KSNET at lower operating margins than the Company's legacy businesses, before acquired intangible asset amortization: The KSNET acquisition increased the Company's revenue during the entire third quarter of fiscal 2011, however, because KSNET has an operating margin that is lower than the Company's legacy businesses, before acquired intangible asset amortization, it reduced the Company's overall operating margin. The inclusion of KSNET in the Company's results has also contributed to the increase in selling, general and administration and depreciation and amortization expenses;
- Increased transaction volumes at EasyPay: Reported results were favorably impacted by increased transaction volumes at EasyPay resulting from growth in value-added services;
- Lower revenue and operating loss generated by MediKredit: MediKredit's revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was lower than the comparable period due to the inclusion in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 of claims processing support fees received from a customer it lost in late calendar 2009 and which contractually continued to pay fees through the end of April 2010. MediKredit generated an operating loss during the third quarter of fiscal 2011, in line with the Company's expectations;
- Increased revenue from FIHRST at lower operating margins than other SA transaction-based activity business: FIHRST increased the Company's revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2011, however, because FIHRST has an operating margin that is lower than the Company's other SA transaction-based activity businesses, it negatively impacted the Company's overall operating margin. The inclusion of FIHRST in the Company's results has also contributed to the increase in selling, general and administration expense;
- Increased user adoption in Iraq: The Company recorded increased transaction revenues at NUETS from the adoption of the Company's UEPS technology in Iraq;
- Lower revenues and margins from hardware, software and related technology sales segment: The hardware, software and related technology sales segment was adversely impacted by lower revenues at NUETS, partially offset by increased sales by Net1 UTA;
- Intangible asset amortization related to acquisitions: Reported results were adversely impacted by additional intangible asset amortization of approximately $3.1 million related to the acquisition of KSNET in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, as well as FIHRST during the third quarter of fiscal 2010;
- Lower interest income and increased interest expense resulting from KSNET acquisition: Reported results were adversely impacted by lower interest income due to the payment of a portion of the KSNET purchase price in cash and increased interest expense due to the payment of a portion of the KSNET purchase price utilizing long-term debt; and
- Non-recurring items included in selling, general and administration expense: During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company incurred transaction-related expenses of $0.5 million, primarily for the acquisition of KSNET.
Comments and Outlook
"Our results for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 represent the performance by our established businesses, namely pension and welfare, KSNET and EasyPay, which were consistent with management's expectations, as well as investments in Net1 Virtual Card and MediKredit to drive accelerating growth in those businesses," said Dr. Serge Belamant, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Net1. "We are disappointed though not surprised with the decision by one of Net1 UTA's largest customers to transition away from the DUET platform given our focus on transitioning to a transaction based revenue stream as opposed to the sale of hardware and software, which may not always be the preferred model by all customers. However, this customer decision together with uncertainty surrounding the timing and quantum of Net1 UTA's future net cash inflows, resulted in the evaluation and subsequent write down of its intangible assets related to customer relationships during 3Q11. We have taken actions to return Net1 UTA to at least break even in the near term and remain cautiously optimistic about its prospects given its pipeline of opportunities. In April 2011, SASSA issued its new long-term tender for the distribution of social grants in South Africa. Our current contract with SASSA currently continues through September 30, 2011, and as previously discussed, SASSA expects to conclude its evaluation process prior to that time," he concluded.
"We remain comfortable with our Fundamental EPS guidance of at least $1.50 on a constant currency basis for fiscal 2011. We continue to expect KSNET to be accretive to Fundamental EPS for fiscal 2011, but it is too soon to provide guidance on such level of accretion," said Herman Kotze, Chief Financial Officer of Net1.
Results of Operations
Net1's frequently asked questions and operating metrics will be updated and posted on the Company's website (www.net1.com).
SA transaction-based activities
SA transaction-based activities revenue was $47.3 million, down 7% compared with 3Q 2010 in USD and 14% lower on a constant currency basis. In ZAR, the decrease in revenue was primarily due to the new SASSA contract at lower economics, which was partially offset by increased transaction volumes at EasyPay and the inclusion of FIHRST. Operating income margin of the Company's SA transaction-based activities decreased to 39% from 53% a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to the lower revenues generated under the SASSA contract, additional intangible asset amortization related to the acquisition of MediKredit and FIHRST and lower margins at MediKredit and FIHRST compared with the Company's legacy SA transaction-based activities. Excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, 3Q 2011 segment operating margin was 42% compared with 55% during 3Q 2010.
International transaction-based activities
KSNET is the largest contributor to the international transaction-based activities segment. International transaction-based activities revenue was $24.6 million and segment operating margin was 3% in 3Q 2011. Excluding the amortization of intangibles but including the start up costs related to the launch of Virtual Card in the United States, segment operating margin was 16%.
Smart card accounts
Smart card account revenue was $8.3 million, up 4% compared with 3Q 2010 in USD and 3% lower on a constant currency basis. Operating margin for the segment remained consistent at 45%.
Financial services
Financial services revenue was $2.2 million, up 89% compared with 3Q 2010 in USD and 75% higher on a constant currency basis, principally due to an increase in lending activities. Operating margin for this segment increased to 78% from 72% in 3Q 2010 largely as a result of the increased lending activities.
Hardware, software and related technology sales
Hardware, software and related technology sales revenue was $10.4 million, down 16% compared with 3Q 2010 in USD and 22% lower on a constant currency basis. The decrease in revenue and operating income for 3Q 2011 was primarily due lower revenues generated by NUETS and other hardware businesses but partially offset by increased sales at Net1 UTA. Excluding amortization of all intangibles and the impairment loss, segment operating margin was (3)% compared to 5% during 3Q 2010.
Cash flow and liquidity
At March 31, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $89 million, down from $154 million at June 30, 2010. The decrease in cash was due primarily to the use of approximately $124.3 million to fund a portion of the KSNET purchase price and the payment of STC of $14.7 million incurred related to dividends paid from South Africa to the United States connected with the KSNET transaction. For 3Q 2011, the Company generated net cash flow of $28.3 million for operating activities, compared to $31.7 million in 3Q 2010. The decrease in operating cash flow resulted mainly from the SASSA price and volume reductions which were effective July 1, 2010. Capital expenditures for 3Q 2011 and 2010 were $4.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. During 3Q 2011, the Company did not repurchase any shares under its $100 million authorization.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
US securities laws require that when the Company publishes any non-GAAP measures, it discloses the reason for using the non-GAAP measure and provides reconciliation to the directly comparable GAAP measure. The presentation of fundamental net income and fundamental earnings per share and headline earnings per share are non-GAAP measures.
Fundamental net income and fundamental earnings per share
The Company's GAAP net (loss) income and (loss) earnings per share for 3Q 2011 and 3Q 2010 include amortization of intangible assets, transaction-related costs and stock-based compensation. In addition, GAAP net (loss) income and (loss) earnings per share for 3Q 2010 and F2011 includes an impairment loss and facility fee amortization related to the KSNET acquisition. The Company excludes all of the above-mentioned amounts when calculating fundamental net income and earnings per share, because management believes that these adjustments enhance its own evaluation, as well as an investor's understanding, of the Company's financial performance. Attachment B presents the reconciliation between GAAP and fundamental net income and earnings per share.
Headline earnings per share ("HEPS")
The inclusion of HEPS in this press release is a requirement of the Company's listing on the JSE. HEPS basic and diluted is calculated using net (loss) income which has been determined based on GAAP. Accordingly, this may differ to the headline earnings per share calculation of other companies listed on the JSE as these companies may report their financial results under a different financial reporting framework, including but not limited to, International Financial Reporting Standards. HEPS basic and diluted is calculated as GAAP net (loss) income adjusted for impairment losses, net of taxes, and the loss (profit) on sale of property, plant and equipment, net of related tax effects. Attachment C presents the reconciliation between the Company's net (loss) income used to calculate earnings per share basic and diluted and HEPS basic and diluted.
