CENTREVILLE, VA – June 18, 2019, Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019.

CEO Commentary

“We reported strong first quarter revenue, profitability and bookings,” said Chuck Harrington, Chairman, CEO and President of Parsons Corporation. “Our results reflect continued execution and implementation of our strategy to expand our technology base in our core defense, intelligence and critical infrastructure markets. We’ve had a great start to the year, and we are excited about our future with our robust balance sheet and differentiated solutions aligned with large and growing customer markets.”

First Quarter 2019 Results

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2019 increased 20% from the prior year period primarily due to the Polaris Alpha and OGSystems acquisitions, which added $122 million, and organic growth in both our Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure market segments. Operating income decreased 41% from the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to an increase in acquisition-related intangible amortization expenses and IPO costs. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to Parsons decreased 60% due to the same factors as noted above and higher interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2019 was $68 million, a 43% increase over the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 7.5%, or by 120 basis points from the first quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased primarily as a result of recent acquisitions in the Federal Solutions segment, as well as organic revenue growth and margin expansion in both the Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure segments. The Federal Solutions segment also benefited from a shift in revenue mix to higher margin markets including cyber, intelligence, geospatial, missile defense and space.

 

 

 

 

 


 

Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons for the first quarter of 2019 was $64 million, a 47% increase over the prior year period. Adjusted EPS was $0.57, a 67% increase over the first quarter of 2018. These increases were primarily driven by the same factors as noted above.

First quarter 2019 revenue increased $18 million, or 4%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to revenue growth on existing contracts.

Adjusted EBITDA margin including noncontrolling interests increased to 6.1%, or by 10 basis points from the first quarter of 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The tables under "Parsons Corporation Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" present Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measure. These financial measures are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP Measures"). Parsons has provided these Non-GAAP Measures to adjust for, among other things, the impact of amortization expenses related to our acquisitions of Williams Electric, Polaris Alpha and  OGSystems, initial public offering transaction-related expenses, costs associated with a loss or gain on the disposal or sale of property, plant and equipment, restructuring and related expenses, costs associated with mergers and acquisitions, software implementation costs, legal and settlement costs, and other costs considered to non-operational in nature . These items have been Adjusted because they are not considered core to the Company’s business or otherwise not considered operational or because these charges are non-cash or non-recurring. The Company presents these Non-GAAP Measures because management believes that they are meaningful to understanding Parsons’s performance during the periods presented and the Company’s ongoing business. Non-GAAP Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and therefore are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled metrics or the financial results of other companies. These Non-GAAP Measures should be considered a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
