OREANDA-NEWS. Cambium Learning® Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABCD) (the “Company”), a leading educational solutions and services company committed to helping all students reach their full potential, announced today financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2016.

“Bookings for our technology-enabled solutions grew 26% in the second quarter versus prior year. We are seeing positive results from the development, marketing, and sales initiatives that support our technology-enabled transformation and we continue to gain momentum for the upcoming school year and important third quarter,” said John Campbell, Chief Executive Officer of Cambium Learning Group. “Our Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning segments both had a strong quarter, with Learning A-Z Bookings up 28% and ExploreLearning Bookings up 29% compared to the prior year second quarter. Our full year outlook for the Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning segments is unchanged. Bookings for our Voyager Sopris Learning segment declined 21% in the second quarter versus prior year, impacted in part by a timing shift in customer purchases to the second half of the year. With this segment’s slow start in the first half of the year, we have lowered Voyager Sopris Learning’s full-year outlook. We continue to expect our investments in growth to effect a strong turnaround at this segment with a gain in momentum in the second half of the year and improvement compared to last year’s 7% Bookings decline.”

First Half 2016 Financial Highlights

  • Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) net revenues for the first half of 2016 increased by 6% to $72.8 million compared with $68.9 million in 2015. GAAP net revenues by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2016, and the change from the same period of 2015, were as follows: 
    • Learning A–Z®—$31.6 million, increased $5.4 million or 21%
    • Voyager Sopris Learning®—$29.8 million, decreased ($3.2) million or (10%)
    • ExploreLearning®—$11.4 million, increased $1.6 million or 17%
  • Bookings for the first half of 2016 decreased by 2% to $52.9 million compared with $54.0 million in the first half of 2015.
  • Technology-enabled Bookings represented 62% of total first half 2016 Bookings versus 54% of total first half 2015 Bookings, and grew 11% compared to the first half of 2015.
  • The Company reported a net income of $3.7 million during the first half of 2016 compared to a net loss of $0.5 million during the first half of 2015. Net interest expense was $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, down $3.6 million from the first half of 2015 as a result of the debt refinancing completed in December 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $18.0 million, slightly up from 2015 as the increase in GAAP net revenues is offset by strategic investments into high-return, technology-enabled opportunities through segment-specific development, marketing and sales programs to support strong full-year and long-term growth.
  • Cash Income was ($10.4) million compared to ($6.8) million reported in the first half of 2015, due to lower Bookings in the first half of 2016 and higher expenses due to the ramp up of investments to support growth. Capital expenditures reflect planned investments in product development and totaled $10.8 million in the first half of 2016 versus $9.8 million in the first half of 2015.
  • The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.9 million at June 30, 2016. For the first half of 2016, cash used in operations was $1.7 million, cash used in investing activities was $10.8 million, and cash provided by financing activities was $8.7 million. At June 30, 2016, the principal amount of term loans outstanding was $103.1 million and the revolving credit facility outstanding was $10.5 million.

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Highlights

  • GAAP net revenues for the second quarter of 2016 increased by 4% to $39.1 million compared with $37.5 million in 2015. GAAP net revenues by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2016, and the change from the same period of 2015, were as follows:
    • Learning A–Z—$15.9 million, increased $2.6 million or 20%
    • Voyager Sopris Learning—$17.5 million, decreased ($1.8) million or (9%)
    • ExploreLearning—$5.8 million, increased $0.8 million or 17%
  • Bookings for the second quarter of 2016 decreased by 1% to $31.6 million compared with $31.8 million in the second quarter of 2015, with strong growth at the Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning segments offset by a decline in the Voyager Sopris Learning segment.
  • The Company reported a net income of $3.8 million during the second quarter of 2016 compared to net income of $2.0 million during the second quarter of 2015. Net interest expense was $2.0 million for second quarter of 2016, down $1.7 million from the second quarter of 2015 as a result of the debt refinancing completed in December 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $11.6 million, increasing $0.4 million from $11.2 million in 2015. The Company continues to see EBITDA improvement attributable to revenue favorability, which was partially offset by an increase in sales and marketing expense.
  • Cash Income was $0.4 million, a slight decrease compared with $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2015. Capital expenditures totaled $5.8 million in the second quarter of 2016 versus $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2015.

First Half 2016 Segment Discussion

Bookings, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income changes by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same period of 2015 were:

  Q2 - 2016
% Change		     YTD - 2016
% Change		  
  Bookings   Adjusted
EBITDA		   Cash
Income		     Bookings   Adjusted
EBITDA		   Cash
Income		  
Learning A-Z   28 %   14 %   71 %     13 %   15 %   (32 )%
Voyager Sopris Learning   (21 )%   (18 )%   (49 )%     (18 )%   (34 )%   (1616 )%
ExploreLearning   29 %   21 %   751 %     40 %   21 %   55 %
Shared Services         (2 )%   (13 )%           0 %   (7 )%
Cambium Learning Group, Inc.   (1 )%   3 %   (13 )%     (2 )%   2 %   (53 )%

Bookings decreased 2% for the first half of 2016 compared to 2015. By segment:

  • Learning A-Z reported a 13% Bookings increase in the first half compared to prior year, due to strong second quarter growth of 28%.
  • Voyager Sopris Learning reported an 18% decrease for the first half of 2016 versus prior year. The segment has seen a shift in expected customer purchases to the back-to-school season in the third and early fourth quarters. Additionally, the segment has increased the use of pilot programs for the recently launched Velocity® product, which helps expand the pool of customer prospects for the long-term but does not immediately generate material top-line growth.     
  • ExploreLearning experienced 40% growth in Bookings for the first half of 2016 versus prior year. This segment continued to show strong momentum in Reflex® and in the Gizmos® simulations which were upgraded to HTML5 earlier this year.

2016 Outlook

Mr. Campbell concluded, “We are pleased that the aggressive investments we’ve made in our Learning A-Z and ExploreLearning segments have paid off with a strong start to the year, and we are focused on execution of our transformation strategy at Voyager Sopris Learning and expect increasing momentum in this segment as we move into the seasonally most significant third quarter. We consider a return to Bookings growth as one of the key indicators of success with our Voyager Sopris Learning technology-enabled transformation, and we are focused on execution and the achievement of this objective for long-term value.”

The Company’s technology-enabled products continue to receive industry recognition. Cambium Learning Group was recently was awarded three 2016 Software and Information Industry Association CODiE Awards for Learning A-Z’s Headsprout® and RAZ-Kids® products and Explore Learning’s Reflex product. Additionally, Voyager Sopris Learning’s LANGUAGE! Live® program has been selected a winner of the 2016 Association of American Publishers REVERE Award in the “Classroom Supplemental Resources for Learners with Additional Educational Needs” category.

Company expectations for 2016 include the following:

  • Learning A-Z: The Company expects Learning A-Z to continue to show strong double-digit Bookings growth in 2016, estimated at approximately 20%, with consistent Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income margins. Learning A-Z will continue to make aggressive investments in development, marketing and sales to fuel future growth. Capital expenditures for product development are expected to be roughly $8.0 million in 2016.
  • Voyager Sopris Learning: The Company expects this segment’s top line performance in 2016 to show improvement over the prior year Bookings decline of 7%, and slight growth of 1% to 2% is possible but highly dependent on several variables and third quarter performance. Voyager Sopris Learning plans to continue to maintain its more effective cost structure, but in 2016 will be primarily focused on its return to growth, which the Company expects in 2016 or 2017. Voyager Sopris Learning plans to make investments in this growth, especially in sales and marketing, to fuel the success of the newer and technology-enabled solutions and to support the launch of Velocity. The 2016 Cash Income margin will depend heavily on top-line performance and may decrease or be up slightly depending on that performance. GAAP net revenue growth will be slowed by the continued transition to technology-enabled subscription solutions, which are generally recognized over the subscription period rather than up front, as is the case with print orders. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA dollars and margin are expected to decline in 2016. Capital expenditures for product development are expected to be roughly $7.5 million in 2016.
  • ExploreLearning: The Company expects ExploreLearning Bookings growth to accelerate in 2016, as the entire library of Gizmos simulations is now upgraded to HTML5 and Reflex continues to show strong momentum. The Bookings growth is expected to range between 10% and 20%. Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income margins are expected to grow slightly in 2016, as this segment gains scale but continues to invest aggressively in development, marketing and sales. Capital expenditures for product development are expected to be roughly $2.5 million in 2016.
  • Companywide: The Company expects Bookings growth to range between 7% and 12%. Adjusted EBITDA margins are expected to remain relatively consistent with 2015, and Cash Income growth is expected to meet or exceed the Bookings growth rate. Overall capital expenditures are expected to range between $21 million and $22 million, given product development plans as noted above, plus roughly $3.0 million of general capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Bookings, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly named, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors because they reflect the underlying performance of the ongoing operations of the Company and provide investors with a view of the Company’s operations from management’s perspective. Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Income remove significant purchase accounting, non-operational, or certain non-cash items from earnings. The Company uses Bookings, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income to monitor and evaluate the operating performance of the Company and as the basis to set and measure progress toward performance targets, which directly affect compensation for employees and executives. The Company generally uses these non-GAAP measures as measures of operating performance and not as measures of the Company’s liquidity. The Company’s presentation of Bookings, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Cash Income should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual, non-operational, or non-cash items.
