CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (NYSE: RRD) (“RRD”) today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2019.

“I am pleased with our strong financial results for the quarter,” said Dan Knotts, RRD’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our favorable performance represents the third consecutive quarter of earnings growth compared to the prior year. We continue to strengthen our core by aggressively executing our cost reduction initiatives, improving our portfolio mix with growth in our targeted product categories, and enhancing our financial flexibility with our ongoing actions to reduce debt. Importantly, our team also successfully launched production of the 2020 Census early in the quarter and continues to meet all milestones and performance expectations. And as we enter the final quarter of the year, we remain confident in our ability to execute our operating plan and further advance RRD as a marketing and business communications company.”

Financial highlights

The following table provides an overview of RRD’s financial performance:

Q3 2019 Q3 2018 % Change
Net sales $1.62 billion $1.65 billion (1.8%)
Income from operations $73.8 million $60.9 million 21.2%
Diluted earnings per share $0.18 $0.49 (63.3%)
Adjusted income from operations – non-GAAP (1) $77.0 million $67.4 million 14.2%
Adjusted diluted earnings per share – non-GAAP (1) $0.31 $0.25 24.0%
(1) See page 9 for a complete listing of items excluded and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP amounts.

Net sales in the quarter were $1.62 billion, down $30.1 million or 1.8% from the third quarter of 2018. The decrease includes a $13.4 million impact from recent business dispositions and a $10.5 million reduction due to changes in foreign exchange rates. On an organic basis, consolidated net sales decreased 0.4%. The Marketing Solutions segment grew 19.9% organically driven by higher volume in the Direct Marketing and Digital Print and Fulfillment product categories. The Business Services segment was down 4.6% organically due to the exit of unprofitable business in Commercial Print and declines in the Logistics business, partially offset by volume growth in Labels and Packaging.

Income from operations was $73.8 million in the third quarter compared to $60.9 million in the third quarter of 2018. The third quarter of 2019 included a pre-tax restructuring benefit of $2.3 million primarily due to a pre-tax gain of $4.7 million from the sales of restructured facilities. The prior year period included pre-tax restructuring and other charges of $11.0 million.

Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations of $77.0 million, or 4.8% of net sales, increased $9.6 million from $67.4 million, or 4.1% of net sales, reported in the prior year period. The improvement was primarily due to cost reduction initiatives, favorable product mix and prior year losses from recent business dispositions, partially offset by modest pricing pressure and lower pension and other postretirement benefits income in the quarter.

Earnings per share attributable to common stockholders was $0.18 in the third quarter of 2019 compared to $0.49 in the third quarter of 2018. The 2018 amount included a reduction to tax expense of $19.6 million or $0.28 per share primarily related to an adjustment to provisional amounts associated with Tax Reform and $4.5 million related to a pre-tax gain from selling the Print Logistics business. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders of $0.31 in 2019 improved from $0.25 in 2018. The improvement was primarily driven by higher adjusted income from operations and lower interest expense, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate.

Other highlights and information

Cash provided by operating activities of $29.3 million in the third quarter of 2019 decreased $34.8 million versus the prior year period amount. Cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $87.8 million compared to $63.9 million in the prior year period. The year-to-date increase is primarily related to higher cash taxes. Capital expenditures in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $107.4 million versus $72.7 million in the prior year period. The 2019 amount includes incremental investments from the previously announced construction of a new facility in China and the 2020 Census project. Proceeds from other asset sales, including a non-refundable deposit collected, were $32.8 million in 2019.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company repatriated an additional $134 million of international cash to the US, bringing the year to date total to $256 million. Net proceeds were used primarily to reduce debt outstanding. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company expects to repatriate an additional $55 million of international cash, including net proceeds from the recently announced sale of its UK-based Global Document Solutions (GDS) business.

As of September 30, 2019, cash on hand was $144.7 million and total debt outstanding was $2.03 billion, down $148 million from September 30, 2018. The 2019 amount includes $223.0 million drawn against the credit facility. Availability under the credit facility was $438.6 million at September 30, 2019.

On October 25, 2019, the Company sold its GDS business for $42.3 million. Net proceeds are expected to be repatriated to the US and used to reduce debt outstanding. GDS primarily provided statements and print management services to certain geographies in Europe and reported net sales of approximately $270 million in 2018, and $185 million through the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

2019 guidance

The Company revises its full year guidance as follows:

Current Guidance (1) Prior Guidance
October 29, 2019 July 30, 2019
Net sales $6.25 billion to $6.35 billion $6.40 billion to $6.60 billion
Adjusted income from operations – non-GAAP (2) $245 million to $260 million $225 million to $265 million
Adjusted diluted EPS – non-GAAP (2) $0.67 to $0.76 $0.60 to $0.90
Cash flow from operations (3) $150 million to $165 million $150 million to $180 million
Depreciation and amortization Approximately $170 million Approximately $175 million
Interest expense – net Approximately $152 million Approximately $160 million
Adjusted effective tax rate – non-GAAP (2), (4) Approximately 57% Approximately 50%
Capital expenditures (5) Approximately $140 million $135 million to $145 million
Proceeds from facility sales (6) Approximately $32.8 million Approximately $25 million
(1) The revised net sales estimate reflects the continued pressure in Logistics and Commercial Print products, as well as the October sale of the GDS business. Despite lower sales performance in Logistics, the Company believes the business, as well as the overall Logistics market, has stabilized. Adjusted income from operations has been tightened towards the upper end of the previous range reflecting strong operating performance and cost management partially offset by the impact of lower net sales. The adjusted EPS range has also been tightened and now reflects strong operating performance, lower interest expense and a slightly higher effective tax rate, including the additional taxes from the accelerated repatriation of cash.
(2) Certain components of the guidance given in the table above are provided on a non-GAAP basis only, without providing a reconciliation to guidance provided on a GAAP basis. Information is presented in this manner, consistent with SEC rules, because the preparation of such a reconciliation could not be accomplished without “unreasonable efforts.” The Company does not have access to certain information that would be necessary to provide such a reconciliation, including non-recurring items and other items that are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. Such items include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, impairment charges, pension settlement charges, acquisition-related expenses, gains or losses on investments and business disposals, losses on debt extinguishment, OPEB curtailments and other similar gains or losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations. The Company does not believe that excluding such items is likely to be significant to an assessment of the Company’s ongoing operations, given that such excluded items are not believed to be indicators of business performance.
(3) 2019 cash flow from operations guidance includes restructuring payments related to the previously announced sale and relocation of a printing facility in Shenzhen, China and higher net tax payments primarily related to lower tax refunds relative to 2018.
(4) 2019 adjusted effective tax rate – non-GAAP guidance reflects a significantly higher rate than the statutory domestic rate primarily due to continued limitations on the Company’s domestic interest expense deduction and taxes from repatriating more cash in 2019. As earnings grow and interest expense is reduced, the Company expects the effective tax rate to improve over time.
(5) 2019 capital expenditures guidance is higher primarily related to investments associated with building a new facility in China in preparation for an expected sale of the existing facility for approximately $250 million, and additional investments related to the recently awarded 2020 Census contract. The Company expects its 2020 capital expenditures level to return to its previously stated range of 1.5% to 1.7% of net sales.
(6) 2019 proceeds from facility sales guidance primarily reflects the additional non-refundable deposit of $23.7 million collected in the third quarter of 2019 related to the planned facility sale in China and $8.1 million from sale of restructured facilities.

These statements include all those under the column labeled “Current Guidance October 29, 2019” in the table included under the “2019 Guidance” section.
