Insperity Announces Record First Quarter Results


Q1 adjusted EPS up 105% over 2014 to $0.86
Q1 adjusted EBITDA increases 74% over 2014 to $42.3 million
Q1 gross profit increases 22% on 10% revenue growth


HOUSTON – May 1, 2015 – Insperity, Inc. (NYSE: NSP), a leading provider of human resources and business performance solutions for America’s best businesses, today reported first quarter adjusted EBITDA of $42.3 million, a 73.8% increase over the first quarter of 2014. Adjusted net income was $21.6 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.86, a 104.8% increase over the first quarter of 2014. Reported first quarter GAAP net income and earnings per share were $13.8 million and $0.54, respectively.

The number of worksite employees paid at the end of the quarter increased 10% over the first quarter of 2014. This increase was the result of improved new client sales and client retention. Net hiring in the client base declined slightly when compared to the 2014 period.

“These record results demonstrate the earnings power of our business model as unit growth accelerated to double digits with effective client selection,” said Paul J. Sarvadi, Insperity chairman and chief executive officer. “The combination of targeted growth, proactive management of risk and operating leverage drove this third consecutive quarter of outperformance.”

Adjusted EBITDA increased 73.8% over the first quarter of 2014 on a 22.3% increase in gross profit.

“Our successful year-end transition included a 23% reduction in client attrition from the 2014 period, positively impacting worksite employee growth and average pricing during the quarter,” said Douglas S. Sharp, senior vice president of finance, chief financial officer and treasurer. “This higher average pricing, combined with low health care costs from the effective management of health plan design and lower COBRA participation, drove the better-than-expected gross profit results.”

Cash outlays in the first three months of 2015 included the repurchase of 113,050 shares of stock at a cost of $5.7 million, dividends totaling $4.8 million and capital expenditures of $2.4 million. Adjusted working capital increased by $18.3 million during the quarter to $91.4 million at March 31, 2015.

The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws (Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). You can identify such forward-looking statements by the words “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely,” “possibly,” “probably,” “goal,” “opportunity,” “objective,” “target,” “assume,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “predicts,” “appears,” “indicator” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In the normal course of business, Insperity, Inc., in an effort to help keep our stockholders and the public informed about our operations, may from time to time 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, unit growth, profit per worksite employee, pricing, operating expenses or other aspects of operating results. We base the forward-looking statements on our expectations, estimates and projections at the time such statements are made. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties 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: (i) adverse economic conditions; (ii) regulatory and tax developments and possible adverse application of various federal, state and local regulations; (iii) the ability to secure competitive replacement contracts for health insurance and workers’ compensation contracts at expiration of current contracts; (iv) 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; (v) failure to manage growth of our operations and the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts; (vi) the impact of the competitive environment in the PEO industry on our growth and/or profitability; (vii) our liability for worksite employee payroll, payroll taxes and benefits costs; (viii) our liability for disclosure of sensitive or private information; (ix) our ability to integrate or realize expected returns on our acquisitions; (x) failure of our information technology systems; (xi) an adverse final judgment or settlement of claims against Insperity; and (xii) disruptions to our business resulting from the actions of certain stockholders. 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.

Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities law, we do not undertake any obligation to update our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-bonus payroll cost represents payroll cost excluding the impact of bonus payrolls paid to the company’s worksite employees. Bonus payroll cost varies from period to period, but has no direct impact to the company’s ultimate workers’ compensation costs under the current program. As a result, Insperity management refers to non-bonus payroll cost in analyzing, reporting and forecasting the company’s workers’ compensation costs.

Non-bonus payroll, adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, adjusted working capital, adjusted operating expenses, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per share of common stock are not financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similar measures used by other companies. Non-bonus payroll, adjusted cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, adjusted working capital, adjusted operating expenses, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per share of common stock 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 in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables above.
