Bright Horizons Family Solutions Reports First Quarter of 2021 Financial Results

Bright Horizons Family Solutions® Inc. (NYSE: BFAM), a leading provider of high-quality education and care solutions designed to help employers support employees across life and career stages, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2021.

First Quarter 2021 Highlights (compared to first quarter 2020):

  • Revenue of $391 million (decrease of 23%)
  • Income from operations of $14 million (decrease of 68%)
  • Net income of $7 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.12 (decrease of 77%)

Non-GAAP measures

  • Adjusted income from operations* of $14 million (decrease of 72%)
  • Adjusted EBITDA* of $46 million (decrease of 43%)
  • Adjusted net income* of $14 million and diluted adjusted earnings per common share* of $0.23 (decreases of 68% and 69%, respectively)

“I am pleased to report a solid start to 2021 as we continue to make strides in recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Stephen Kramer, Chief Executive Officer. “Our recovery continues to illustrate the unique strength and resilience of our model and reflects the actions we have taken to support clients, families and staff through the challenges of the past year.”

“We are thrilled to have been named one of FORTUNE Magazine’s '100 Best Companies to Work For' for the 20th time,” Kramer continued. “We are incredibly proud of the manner in which our passionate and dedicated team has stepped up during the pandemic. This honor truly demonstrates our employees commitment to preserving a trusting and caring work environment for each other, which is key in our ability to deliver high quality care, education and service to the clients and families we have the privilege to serve.”

First Quarter 2021 Results

Revenue decreased $115.5 million, or 23%, in the first quarter of 2021 from the first quarter of 2020, primarily from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, the associated reduction in enrollment in our open child care centers and the continued temporary closure of certain child care centers. While enrollment in our child care centers had improvements during the quarter as the economy continues to recover, our centers continue to operate below pre-COVID-19 enrollment levels during this re-ramping phase. The decrease in revenue in the full service center-based child care segment was partially offset by contributions from our back-up care and educational advisory services.

Income from operations was $13.7 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $43.3 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease in income from operations reflects reduced gross profit contributions in the full service center-based child care segment arising from lower enrollment as centers re-ramp and the temporary closure of certain centers, partially offset by incremental contributions from our back-up care services. Net income was $7.1 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to net income of $30.7 million in the same 2020 period, a decrease of $23.6 million, or 77%, due to the decrease in income from operations, partially offset by a lower effective tax rate. Diluted earnings per common share was $0.12 for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $0.52 for the first quarter of 2020.

In the first quarter of 2021, adjusted EBITDA* decreased $35.2 million, or 43%, to $46.3 million, and adjusted income from operations* decreased $35.2 million, or 72%, to $13.7 million from the first quarter of 2020, due primarily to the decrease in gross profit in the full service center-based child care segment, partially offset by growth in back-up care services. Adjusted net income* decreased by $29.8 million, or 68%, to $13.9 million, due to the decrease in income from operations. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share* was $0.23 for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $0.74 for the same period in 2020.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had more than 1,300 client relationships with employers across a diverse array of industries, and operated 1,015 child care and early education centers with the capacity to serve approximately 114,000 children and their families, of which approximately 900 child care and early education centers were open.

*Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, impairment costs, other costs incurred due to the impact of COVID-19 including center closing costs, and duplicative corporate office costs. Adjusted income from operations represents income from operations before impairment costs, other COVID-19 related costs, and duplicative corporate office costs. Adjusted net income represents net income determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense, impairment costs, other COVID-19 related costs, duplicative corporate office costs, and the income tax provision (benefit) thereon. Diluted adjusted earnings per common share is a non-GAAP measure, calculated using adjusted net income. These non-GAAP measures are more fully described and are reconciled from the respective measures determined under GAAP in “Presentation of Non-GAAP Measures” and the attached table “Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations.”

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Bright Horizons has a strong balance sheet, with $442 million of cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn $400 million multi-currency revolving credit facility at March 31, 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated approximately $68.3 million of cash from operations, compared to $64.1 million for the same period in 2020, and made modest investments in fixed assets, acquisitions and other investments of $22.3 million, compared to $13.0 million for the same period in the prior year.

2021 Outlook

As we previously disclosed, the COVID-19 pandemic has substantially disrupted our global operations. We remain focused on the ramping of our centers and the phased re-opening of the limited number of centers that remain temporarily closed, which we expect will continue throughout 2021. We remain confident in our business model, the strength of our client partnerships, the strength of our balance sheet and liquidity position, and our ability to continue to respond to changing market conditions. However, the broad effects of COVID-19, its duration and scope of the ongoing disruption, cannot be predicted and the negative financial impact to our results and future financial performance cannot be reasonably estimated. Therefore, we are not at this time and do not currently expect to provide full earnings guidance for the remainder of fiscal 2021.

Conference Call

Bright Horizons Family Solutions will host an investor conference call today at 5:00 pm ET to discuss the first quarter 2021, and the Company’s business, its strategy and near term operating expectations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements, which can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “projects,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates,” or, in each case, their negatives or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts, including statements regarding the Company’s intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, operating expectations, effects of COVID-19 on our operations, our value proposition, our future opportunities and business model, our re-opening plans for temporarily closed center locations, our recovery, timing to re-ramp enrollment and centers, estimated effective tax rate and tax expense, employee contributions and culture, and future business and financial performance. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. The Company believes that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, prolonged disruptions to our operations as a result of required school and business closures and government mandates in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including current conditions and future developments in the public health arena; the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy; developments in the persistence and treatment of COVID-19 and the adoption, delivery and effectiveness of vaccines; the availability or lack of government supports; changes in the demand for child care, dependent care and other workplace solutions, including variation in enrollment trends and lower than expected demand from employer sponsor clients as well as variations in return to work protocols; the possibility that acquisitions may disrupt our operations and expose us to additional risk; increased costs resulting from recommended or mandated enhanced health and safety protocols and physical distancing; our ability to pass on our increased costs; our indebtedness and the terms of such indebtedness; our ability to withstand seasonal fluctuations in the demand for our services; our ability to implement our growth strategies successfully; and other risks and uncertainties more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 1, 2021, and other factors disclosed from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) throughout this press release, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements - adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share - which present operating results on a basis adjusted for certain items. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures as key performance indicators for the purpose of evaluating performance internally, and in connection with determining incentive compensation for Company management, including executive officers. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in connection with the determination of certain ratio requirements under our credit agreement. We also believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with useful information with respect to our historical operations. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to replace, and should not be considered superior to, the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. The use of the terms adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted earnings per common share are reconciled from the respective measures under GAAP in the attached table “Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. Non-GAAP Reconciliations.”

COVID-19 related costs in 2020 represent impairment costs for long-lived assets incurred as a result of center closures and decreases in the fair values of certain centers due to the impact of COVID-19 on our operations.

(c)

Represents non-cash stock-based compensation expense in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation.

(d)

Other costs in 2020 relate to occupancy costs incurred for our new corporate headquarters during the construction period, which represent duplicative office costs while we also continued to carry the costs for our previous corporate headquarters.

(e)

Represents income tax expense calculated on adjusted income before income tax at an effective tax rate of approximately 21% and 15% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The tax rate for 2021 represents a tax rate of approximately 27% applied to the expected adjusted income before income tax, less the estimated effect of excess tax benefits related to equity transactions. However, the jurisdictional mix of the expected adjusted income before income tax for the full year, and the timing and volume of the tax benefits associated with future equity activity will affect these estimates and the estimated effective tax rate for the year.
