Teradata Reports Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results

Teradata Corp. (NYSE: TDC) continues its successful transformation to a recurring revenue model with subscription-based transactions comprising 90 percent of the company’s bookings mix in the second quarter. Recurring revenue increased 8 percent, 11 percent in constant currency(1), from the second quarter of 2018. Annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) increased 11 percent, 12 percent in constant currency(1), from the prior-year period. As the company shifts to a recurring revenue model and focuses its consulting resources on higher-margin engagements that drive increased software consumption within its targeted customer base, perpetual revenue and consulting revenue declined versus the prior-year period as expected. Total second-quarter revenue was $478 million, compared to 2018 second-quarter total revenue of $544 million. Currency translation had a 2 percentage point negative impact on the second-quarter total revenue comparison(1).

Teradata reported 2019 second-quarter net loss of $(1) million under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), or $(0.01) per share, which compared to net income of $4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2018. Non-GAAP 2019 second-quarter net income, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and other special items, was $34 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, as compared to $32 million, or $0.26 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2018(2).

“We continue to make great strides in our business transformation, driving adoption of our Vantage platform, and advancing our cloud position to drive increasing recurring revenue,” said Oliver Ratzesberger, Teradata President and CEO. “Most importantly, our customers view analytics as a competitive advantage and are investing in Teradata Vantage to keep them at the forefront of their industries. I remain very proud of our Teradata people for keeping their focus and advancing our transformation efforts."

Gross Margin

2019 second-quarter gross margin reported under GAAP was 49.4 percent versus 46.0 percent for the second quarter of 2018. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding stock-based compensation expense and other special items, 2019 second-quarter gross margin was 52.7 percent, versus 48.9 percent in the prior-year period(2). The gross margin rate was higher year-over-year due to a higher mix of recurring revenue and improving consulting margin.

Operating Income

2019 second-quarter operating income reported under GAAP was $10 million which was the same as reported in the second quarter of 2018. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding stock-based compensation expense and other special items, 2019 second-quarter operating income was $51 million versus $45 million in the second quarter of 2018(2). The increase in non-GAAP operating income was due to lower selling, general and administrative expenses primarily related to the realignment of our go-to-market organization.

Income Taxes

Teradata’s 2019 second-quarter tax rate under GAAP was 120.0 percent compared to 33.3 percent in the second quarter of 2018. Excluding special items, Teradata’s non-GAAP 2019 second-quarter tax rate was 26.1 percent versus 22.0 percent in the second quarter of 2018(2). The increase in the tax rate period over period was driven by a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling during the second quarter of 2019 that resulted in a discrete tax charge recorded for a tax contingency. Teradata continues to expect a non-GAAP tax rate of approximately 20 percent for the full year 2019.

Cash Flow

During the second quarter of 2019, Teradata generated $55 million of cash from operating activities compared to $106 million in the same period of 2018. The Company’s transition to a subscription-based model changes the timing of billings and cash collections, therefore year-over-year comparisons may be less meaningful than in prior years. During the quarter, Teradata used $13 million for capital expenditures and additions to capitalized software development costs, versus using $34 million in the second quarter of 2018. Teradata’s 2019 second-quarter free cash flow was $42 million, compared to $72 million in the second quarter of 2018(3). The company used approximately $17 million of cash in the second quarter of 2019 related to reorganizing and restructuring its operations and go-to-market functions to align to its strategy, reducing free cash flow.

Balance Sheet

Teradata ended the second quarter of 2019 with $635 million in cash. During the second quarter of 2019, Teradata repurchased 3.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock for approximately $117 million. Year-to-date, the company repurchased 4.3 million shares for approximately $175 million. At the end of the second quarter, Teradata had approximately 114.1 million shares outstanding.

On July 28, 2019 Teradata's Board of Directors authorized an additional $500 million to be utilized to repurchase Teradata common stock under its open market share repurchase program. Teradata now has a total of approximately $620 million authorized for share repurchases under this share repurchase program. The stock is anticipated to be repurchased periodically on an ongoing basis in open market transactions at management’s discretion, in accordance with applicable securities rules regarding issuer repurchases. The increased share repurchase authorization is effective immediately and the program now expires on July 27, 2022.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had total debt of $580 million, including $86 million of outstanding finance lease obligations. There were no funds drawn on the company’s $400 million revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2019.

Guidance

For the full-year, Teradata continues to expect ARR to increase in the range of 11 percent to 12 percent, and recurring revenue to increase approximately 10 percent to 11 percent. Consistent with prior expectations, perpetual revenue is expected to decline near the high end of the $150 to $200 million range versus 2018 and consulting revenue is expected to decline approximately 20 percent versus 2018 as the company realigns its consulting business to focus on higher value add consulting services.

Teradata expects 2019 full-year GAAP earnings per share to be in the $0.42 to $0.52 range. On a non-GAAP basis, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and other special items, the Company continues to expect earnings per share in the $1.45 to $1.55 range(2).

Recurring revenue in the third quarter of 2019 is expected to be in the $340 million to $344 million range.

GAAP earnings per share in the third quarter of 2019 is expected to be in the $0.17 to $0.21 range. Third quarter Non-GAAP earnings per share, excluding stock-based compensation expense and other special items, is expected to be in the $0.38 to $0.42 range(2).

Earnings Conference Call

A conference call is scheduled today at 2:00 p.m. PT to discuss the Company’s 2019 second-quarter results. Access to the conference call, as well as a replay of the conference call, is available on Teradata’s website at investor.teradata.com.

The impact of currency is determined by calculating the prior-period results using the current-year monthly average currency rates (except for currency impact on ARR which is calculated using month-end rates). See the foreign currency fluctuation schedule on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s web site at investor.teradata.com, which is used to determine revenue on a constant currency (“CC”) basis.

Teradata reports its results in accordance with GAAP. However, as described below, the Company believes that certain non-GAAP measures such as non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, or EPS, all of which exclude certain items (as well as free cash flow) are useful for investors. Our non-GAAP measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as substitutes for, or superior to, results determined in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following tables reconcile Teradata’s actual and projected results and EPS under GAAP to the Company’s actual and projected non-GAAP results and EPS for the periods presented, which exclude certain specified items. Our management internally uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, such as gross profit, operating income, net income and EPS, excluding certain items, to understand, manage and evaluate our business and support operating decisions on a regular basis. The Company believes such non-GAAP financial measures (1) provide useful information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of the Company’s ongoing operations, (2) are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations and results, that may be more easily compared to peer companies and allow investors a view of the Company’s operating results excluding stock-based compensation expense and special items, (3) provide useful information to management and investors regarding present and future business trends, and (4) provide consistency and comparability with past reports and projections of future results.

Represents the income tax effect of the pre-tax adjustments to reconcile GAAP to Non-GAAP income based on the applicable jurisdictional statutory tax rate of the underlying item in addition to the tax impact for U.S. tax reform. Including the income tax effect assists investors in understanding the tax provision associated with those adjustments and the effective tax rate related to the underlying business and performance of the Company’s ongoing operations. As a result of these adjustments, the Company’s non-GAAP effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2019 was 26.1% and 22.0% in the second quarter of 2018.

3.

As described below, the Company believes that free cash flow is a useful non-GAAP measure for investors. Teradata defines free cash flow as cash provided/used by operating activities less capital expenditures for property and equipment, and additions to capitalized software. Free cash flow does not have a uniform definition under GAAP and therefore, Teradata’s definition may differ from other companies’ definitions of this measure. Teradata’s management uses free cash flow to assess the financial performance of the Company and believes it is useful for investors because it relates the operating cash flow of the Company to the capital that is spent to continue and improve business operations. In particular, free cash flow indicates the amount of cash generated after capital expenditures for, among other things, investment in the Company’s existing businesses, strategic acquisitions, strengthening the Company’s balance sheet, repurchase of the Company’s stock and repayment of the Company’s debt obligations, if any. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since there may be other nondiscretionary expenditures that are not deducted from the measure. This non-GAAP measure is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to, results determined in accordance with GAAP, and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
