Management Commentary

“We delivered solid financial results while continuing to invest in the future, especially in light of the challenging macroeconomic conditions. We are particularly pleased with our progress related to value-based pricing, enabling us to achieve our highest third quarter gross margin performance in over 10 years,” said Kate W. Duchene, chief executive officer. “While clients are taking longer with buying decisions related to new projects, we have seen the number of extensions on existing engagements increase significantly and our overall pipeline remains healthy. This is an indication that our consultants are providing exceptional value, and RGP is a trusted partner to help our clients execute their most important initiatives especially during times of uncertainty. We continue to make investments in our on-demand talent platform and digital consulting capabilities to align with the emerging and dominant trends in the world of work. When the buying environment improves, we believe we will be well positioned to capture the pent-up demand as we continue to enhance long-term shareholder value.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Results

The Company’s revenue performance in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 exceeded the high end of the Company’s outlook range. Revenue of $186.8 million decreased by $17.8 million, or 8.7% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 included $6.7 million of revenue attributable to taskforce, which was divested at the beginning of fiscal 2023. Excluding such revenue from taskforce and on a constant currency basis, revenue decreased by 4.1%, reflecting softening in the macroeconomic environment. On a comparable basis (i.e. excluding taskforce), the decrease in revenue was primarily due to a 7.4% decline in billable hours, partially offset by an increase in the average bill rate of 1.6% (or 3.1% on constant currency basis) during the third quarter of 2023.

Gross margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was 38.3%, up from 37.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase was primarily due to a 190 basis point improvement in pay/bill ratio driven by ongoing efforts to enhance pricing while offering competitive consultant wages. This improvement in the pay/bill ratio in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was partially offset by an increase in consultant holiday pay resulting from the addition of Martin Luther King Jr. Day as an official Company holiday in fiscal 2023, as well as higher self-insured medical costs.

SG&A for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was $59.4 million, or 31.8% of revenue, compared to $57.1 million, or 27.9% of revenue, for the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase in SG&A year over year included a $1.3 million increase in technology transformation costs as the Company continued to execute on its technology implementation project and a $1.1 million foreign exchange gain in the prior year quarter related to the dissolution of a number of foreign legal entities in connection with the Company’s restructuring efforts in Europe.

During the third quarter, the Company completed a goodwill impairment analysis for its Sitrick operating segment, a strategic and crisis communications business acquired in 2009. As a result of that analysis, Sitrick recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $3.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

Income tax benefit was near zero (effective tax benefit rate less than 0.1%), compared to an income tax benefit of $2.2 million (effective tax benefit rate of 12.7%) in the prior year quarter. The effective tax benefit rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was attributed largely to a non-recurring tax benefit of $2.6 million from the dissolution of the Company’s French entity, and a tax benefit of $4.9 million from the release of a valuation allowance in a specific European entity. The effective tax benefit rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 was attributed largely to a tax benefit of $1.9 million from the release of a valuation allowance in two European entities.

Net income was $7.0 million (net income margin of 3.8%) for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $19.4 million (net income margin of 9.5%) in the prior year quarter, primarily due to softer topline revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, higher SG&A as the Company continued to execute on its technology implementation project to drive efficiency in the long term and the one-time goodwill impairment charge related to Sitrick. Despite continued challenges posed by the macro environment, the Company delivered a solid Adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.9% in the third quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to assess our financial and operating performance that are not defined by, or calculated in accordance with, GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that (i) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Consolidated Statements of Operations; or (ii) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the comparable GAAP measure so calculated and presented. The following non-GAAP measures are presented in this press release:

  • Same-day constant currency revenue is adjusted for the following items:
    • Currency impact. In order to remove the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company calculates same-day constant currency revenue, which represents the outcome that would have resulted had exchange rates in the current period been the same as those in effect in the comparable prior period.
    • Business days impact. In order to remove the fluctuations caused by comparable periods having a different number of business days, the Company calculates same-day revenue as current period revenue (adjusted for currency impact) divided by the number of business days in the current period, multiplied by the number of business days in the comparable prior period. The number of business days in each respective period is provided in the “Number of Business Days” section of the “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table below.
  • EBITDA is calculated as net income before amortization expense, depreciation expense, interest and income taxes.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus or minus stock-based compensation expense, technology transformation costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring costs, and contingent consideration adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA at the segment level excludes certain shared corporate administrative costs that are not practical to allocate.
  • Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue.
  • Cash tax rate excludes the non-cash tax impact of stock option expirations, non-cash tax impact of valuation allowances on international deferred tax assets, and other non-cash tax items.
  • Adjusted income tax expense is calculated based on the Company’s cash tax rates (as defined above).
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per common share is calculated as diluted earnings per common share, plus or minus the per share impact of stock-based compensation expense, technology transformation costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring costs, contingent consideration adjustments, and adjusted for the related tax effects of these adjustments.

We believe the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures, which are used by management to assess the core performance of our Company, provide useful information and additional clarity of our operating results to our investors in their own evaluation of the core performance of our Company and facilitate a comparison of such performance from period to period. These are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as substitutes for revenue, net income or other cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP for purposes of analyzing our revenue, profitability or liquidity. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenue, net income, earnings per share, cash flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies, as other companies may calculate such financial results differently.

Segment Results

On May 31, 2022, the Company divested taskforce – Management on Demand GmbH, and its wholly owned subsidiary skillforce – Executive Search GmbH, a German professional services firm operating under the taskforce brand (“taskforce). Since the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the business operated by taskforce, along with its parent company, Resources Global Professionals (Germany) GmbH, an affiliate of the Company, represented an operating segment of the Company and was reported as a part of Other Segments. Effective May 31, 2022, the Company’s operating segments consist of RGP and Sitrick. Prior-period comparative segment information was not restated as a result of the divestiture of taskforce as the Company did not have a change in internal organization or the financial information that the Chief Operating Decision Maker uses to assess performance and allocate resources.

RGP is the Company’s only operating segment that meets the quantitative threshold of a reportable segment. Sitrick does not individually meet the quantitative threshold to qualify as a reportable segment. Therefore, Sitrick is disclosed in Other Segments.

The following table discloses the Company’s revenue and Adjusted EBITDA by segment for each of the periods presented (in thousands):
