Insperity Announces First Quarter Results

Insperity, Inc. (NYSE: NSP), a leading provider of human resources and business performance solutions for America’s best businesses, today reported results for the first quarter ended Mar. 31, 2021:

  • Q1 revenue increased 5% to $1.3 billion
  • Q1 net income and diluted EPS of $61.9 million and $1.59, respectively
  • Q1 adjusted EPS up 7% to $1.82
  • Q1 adjusted EBITDA up 3% to $104.2 million

First Quarter Results

For the first quarter of 2021, reported net income and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) were $61.9 million and $1.59, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA increased 3% to $104.2 million and adjusted EPS increased 7% to $1.82 over the first quarter of 2020, significantly above our expectations.

The average number of worksite employees (“WSEEs”) paid per month in Q1 2021 was 233,170 WSEEs, which was at the mid-point of our expected range. As for the three drivers of our growth, WSEEs paid from new sales and client retention were both in line with our forecast, while net gains from hiring in our client base exceeded our expectations. Revenue in Q1 2021 increased 5% to $1.3 billion on a 7% increase in revenue per WSEE, partially offset by an expected 2% decline in the average number of paid WSEEs.

“We are pleased with our strong Q1 results and our growth momentum driven by solid sales, client retention and growth in the client base in the face of the ongoing pandemic,” said Paul J. Sarvadi, Insperity chief executive officer and chairman. “The diligent and effective support provided by Insperity employees has helped our resilient client base weather the storm of the pandemic and emerge with confidence in the future. The combination of solid execution and strong demand for our services positions Insperity well for growth acceleration over the balance of the year, as we lay the foundation to return to double-digit unit growth and profitability.”

Gross profit increased by 7% over Q1 2020 to $251.4 million. This increase exceeded our forecast, as pricing was above targeted levels and each of our direct costs areas experienced lower than expected cost trends. As for benefit costs, healthcare utilization continued to gradually return to normal coming off of the earlier stages of the pandemic. However, when combined with COVID-19 related vaccination, testing and treatment costs, overall costs came in slightly below our Q1 budget. Our workers’ compensation program continued to produce favorable results on our ongoing claims management and, to a lesser degree, a favorable impact on the frequency of claims from the recent “work from home” status of many of our clients’ employees. The payroll tax area also produced gross profit contributions above budget, due to state unemployment tax rates received during Q1 coming in lower than our estimates and the receipt of a $5.5 million federal payroll tax refund related to a prior year.

Operating expenses increased 13% over Q1 2020, however, were flat when excluding performance-based compensation. First quarter 2021 operating costs reflected continued growth investments, including a 7% increase in the number of trained Business Performance Advisors, initial costs related to our SalesForce implementation and an increase in marketing costs associated with lead generation activity. These investments were partially offset by pandemic-related cost reductions, including reduced travel expenses.

Cash outlays during Q1 2021 included the repurchase of 340,000 shares of stock at a cost of $29.7 million, cash dividends totaling $15.5 million and capital expenditures of $12.1 million. We ended the quarter with $196.7 million of adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and $369.4 million outstanding under our $500 million credit facility.

“With our strong Q1 results, and positive trends in our growth, pricing and direct costs, we are raising our earnings outlook for the remainder of 2021,” said Douglas S. Sharp, Insperity senior vice president of finance, chief financial officer and treasurer. “With our solid balance sheet and the expectation for continued strong cash flow, we plan to continue to invest in our growth, while providing attractive returns to our shareholders through our dividend and share repurchase programs.”

2021 Guidance

The company also announced its updated guidance for 2021, including the second quarter of 2021. Please refer to the accompanying financial tables at the end of this press release for the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In the normal course of business, in an effort to help keep our stockholders and the public informed about our operations, from time to time, we may issue such forward-looking statements, either orally or in writing. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies; projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of such plans or strategies; or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, average number of worksite employees, benefits and workers’ compensation costs, or other operating results. We base the forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections. We caution you that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. Therefore, the actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are:

  • vulnerability to regional economic factors because of our geographic market concentration;
  • failure to comply with covenants under our credit facility;
  • our liability for worksite employee payroll, payroll taxes and benefits costs;
  • increases in health insurance costs and workers’ compensation rates and underlying claims trends, health care reform, financial solvency of workers’ compensation carriers, other insurers or financial institutions, state unemployment tax rates, liabilities for employee and client actions or payroll-related claims;
  • cancellation of client contracts on short notice, or the inability to renew client contracts or attract new clients;
  • the ability to secure competitive replacement contracts for health insurance and workers’ compensation insurance at expiration of current contracts;
  • regulatory and tax developments and possible adverse application of various federal, state and local regulations;
  • failure to manage growth of our operations and the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts;
  • the impact of the competitive environment and other developments in the human resources services industry, including the PEO industry, on our growth and/or profitability;
  • an adverse final judgment or settlement of claims against Insperity;

  • our liability or damage to our reputation relating to disclosure of sensitive or private information;
  • failure of third-party providers, data centers or cloud service providers; and
  • our ability to integrate or realize expected returns on our acquisitions.

These factors are discussed in further detail in Insperity’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any of these factors, or a combination of such factors, could materially affect the results of our operations and whether forward-looking statements we make ultimately prove to be accurate.

Any forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof and, unless otherwise required by applicable securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables below.

Non-GAAP Measure

Definition

Benefit of Non-GAAP Measure

Non-bonus payroll cost

Non-bonus payroll cost is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of bonus payrolls paid to our WSEEs.

Our management refers to non-bonus payroll cost in analyzing, reporting and forecasting our workers’ compensation costs.

 

Bonus payroll cost varies from period to period, but has no direct impact to our ultimate workers’ compensation costs under the current program.

We include these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to the costs incurred under our current workers’ compensation program.

Adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities

Excludes funds associated with:

• federal and state income tax withholdings,

• employment taxes,

• other payroll deductions, and

• client prepayments.

We believe that the exclusion of the identified items helps us reflect the fundamentals of our underlying business model and analyze results against our expectations, against prior periods, and to plan for future periods by focusing on our underlying operations. We believe that the adjusted results provide relevant and useful information for investors because they allow investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management and improves their ability to understand and assess our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our lenders to assess our leverage and ability to make interest payments.

 

 

Adjusted operating expenses

Represents operating expenses excluding the impact of the following:

• non-cash stock-based compensation, and

• depreciation and amortization expense.

 

 

EBITDA

Represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus:

• interest expense,

• income tax expense, and

• depreciation and amortization expense.

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA

Represents EBITDA plus:

• non-cash stock-based compensation.

 

 

Adjusted net income

Represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding:

• non-cash stock-based compensation.

 

 

Adjusted EPS

Represents diluted net income per share computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding:

• non-cash stock-based compensation.
