NEWS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THE PROFIT RECOVERY GROUP INTERNATIONAL REPORTS
THIRD-QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
Company Reports Earnings per Diluted Share from Continuing Operations
of $0.04, in Line with Preliminary Results;
Sale of Logistics Division
ATLANTA, OCTOBER 31, 2001 - The Profit Recovery Group International, Inc.
(Nasdaq: PRGX) today announced financial results for the third quarter and first
nine months of 2001, which were in line with preliminary results released on
October 8, 2001. The Company also announced that it has closed on the sale of
its Logistics Division.
Results from Continuing Operations
Revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2001 totaled $71.6
million, compared to $79.1 million for the third quarter of 2000. The Company
reported net earnings from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2001 of
$1.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to $4.7 million, or $0.09 per
diluted share for the same period in 2000.
Revenues from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2001 totaled
$213.9 million, compared to $219.7 million for the first nine months of 2000.
Excluding non-recurring charges, the Company reported net earnings from
continuing operations in the first nine months of 2001 of $3.6 million, or $0.07
per diluted share, compared to $11.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share for the
same period in 2000.
During the first quarter of 2001, the Company realized non-recurring charges in
the form of severance and other personnel costs of approximately $0.8 million,
or $0.01 per diluted share on an after-tax basis, related to the implementation
of its strategic realignment announced on January 31, 2001. These charges have
been excluded in the discussion of financial results for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. "I am encouraged by the fact that we continue to see a
return to normal claims production levels and visibility following the events of
September 11th and I want to reiterate that we continue to generate these claims
in record numbers for our clients," said John Cook, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of PRG.
Cook continued, "As we announced on October 8, 2001, our operations were
severely disrupted by the September 11th tragedy at the most critical time in
our quarterly business cycle. Our revenue generation suffered significantly,
while a substantial portion of our expenses remained fixed, resulting in the
considerable decline in earnings from the third quarter of last year. I fully
expect that we will overcome the near-term challenges associated with the
potentially unprecedented downturn in purchasing and payment activity by our
clients which makes it more difficult, in the near-term, to convert claims into
revenues."
Cook added, "I also have no doubt that the value proposition we present to our
clients remains powerful and consistent. The initiatives that we are undertaking
today and in the coming months, most importantly our planned combination with
Howard Schultz & Associates (HS&A), will put us in a leading position to
capitalize on the clear long-term growth opportunities in the accounts payable
recovery audit industry."
Continuing Operations Segment Financial Highlights
Please refer to Schedule 3 of this press release for a presentation of
(pro-forma) segment operating results in table form.
Accounts Payable: Revenues for the third quarter 2001 were $61.6 million
compared to $67.7 million for the same period a year ago. Operating income
(EBIT) for the third quarter 2001 was $12.7 million (20.6 percent of revenues),
compared to $16.3 million (24.1 percent of revenues) in 2000.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2001 were $186.3 million, compared to
$190.3 million for the same period a year ago. Excluding non-recurring charges,
operating income (EBIT) for the first nine months of 2001 was $39.4 million
(21.2 percent of revenues), compared to $45.8 million (24.1 percent of revenues)
in 2000.
French Taxation Services: Revenues for the third quarter 2001 were $10.0
million, compared to $11.4 million for the same period a year ago. Operating
income for the third quarter 2001 was $0.7 million (7.3 percent of revenues),
compared to $2.8 million (24.4 percent of revenues) in 2000.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2001 were $27.6 million, compared to $29.4
million for the same period a year ago. Operating loss for the first nine months
of 2001 was $0.7 million (2.3 percent of revenues), compared to operating income
of $4.9 million (16.6 percent of revenues) in 2000.
While no final determinations have yet been made by its Board of Directors, the
Company continues to explore strategic alternatives with respect to its French
Taxation Services operations. As disclosed in recent SEC filings, an alternative
under serious consideration is the potential sale of these operations. The
Company has received significant interest from potential buyers and is engaged
in meaningful discussions.
Corporate Overhead: Segment operating income (EBIT) as reported above does not
include corporate overhead. For the third quarter 2001, corporate overhead of
$8.1 million represented 11.3 percent of total revenues from continuing
operations, compared to $8.8 million, or 11.1 percent in the third quarter of
2000. For the first nine months of 2001, excluding non-recurring charges,
corporate overhead of $26.8 million represented 12.5 percent of total revenues
from continuing operations, compared to $24.1 million or 11.0 percent in the
first nine months of 2000.
The Company continues to take steps to achieve cost savings through reductions
in corporate overhead and SG&A as a whole, both of which were at a lower levels
this quarter than in the second quarter.
Cash Flow and Days Sales Outstanding (DSO's)
Net cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001
was approximately $10.4 million, compared to $8.7 million in 2000.
DSO's (Days Sales Outstanding) from continuing operations as of September 30,
2001 stood at 78 days, consistent with the same period a year ago. DSO's from
the Accounts Payable operations stood at 64 days as of September 30, 2001
improved from 68 days a year ago.
Bank Credit Facility
During the third quarter, the Company paid down the balance on its bank credit
facility by $10.5 million, to $152.7 million.
On October 8, 2001, the Company announced that as of September 30, 2001, it was
not in compliance with certain financial ratio covenants in its bank credit
facility agreement. Based on dialogue and meetings held with the lead bank and
members of its bank syndicate, the Company is highly confident that a credit
facility amendment to re-establish current and prospective financial covenant
ratios will be successfully finalized prior to November 14, 2001, the due date
of the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2001.
The Company's bank debt at September 30, 2001 of $152.7 million has been
temporarily classified as a long-term liability in Schedule 2 for purposes of
this press release. The Company anticipates that the amended agreement will
provide for a mandatory, permanent reduction to the facility capacity effective
March 31, 2002 and higher applicable interest rates. As a result, the Company
anticipates that a portion of its long-term debt to the banks will need to be
reclassified as a current liability in the Company's consolidated balance sheet
to be included in its Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2001. If no agreement
is concluded by the November 14, 2001 due date of the Form 10-Q, the Company
will be required to classify the entire amount of bank syndicate debt as a
current liability.
Discontinued Operations
On October 30, 2001, the Company closed on the sale of its Logistics Division to
Platinum Equity, a firm specializing in acquiring and operating technology
organizations and technology-enabled service companies worldwide. The
transaction yields initial gross sale proceeds of approximately $10 million,
with an additional $3 million payable in the form of a performance-based royalty
over the next four years.
The Company and its advisors have concluded that current economic conditions and
other factors have had a negative impact on the collective expected net proceeds
from selling the discontinued operations. As a result, the Company has recorded
a write-down of $31 million of the aggregate carrying value of its discontinued
operations as of September 30, 2001. Of this amount, approximately $19 million
is attributed to the already-concluded sale of the Logistics Division.
The other discontinued operations currently remain for sale. However, if the
difficult market conditions continue such that there is further erosion in the
expected sale proceeds, the Company, in consultation with its advisors, may in
the future conclude that the sale of the remaining discontinued operations is no
longer advisable and may revisit the decision to sell some or all of these
businesses.
Planned Acquisition of Howard Schultz & Associates
The Company continues to make substantial progress with its integration planning
in connection with the planned combination with HS&A and is firmly committed to
finalizing the transaction as soon as possible. Current expectations are that
the transaction will close in the first quarter of 2002.
The combination remains subject to approval of both companies' shareholders,
approval from PRG's bank syndicate including modifications of certain aspects of
PRG's credit agreement, and customary regulatory approvals.
The Company believes that it will be able to make the necessary reductions in
the outstanding principal balance of its credit facility in order to meet the
aforementioned anticipated principal reduction requirements of the amended
credit agreement as well as to secure the bank syndicate's approval for the HS&A
transaction. The Company anticipates achieving this through a combination of
selling discontinued operations, potentially selling the French Taxation
Services operations, and through additional debt or equity financing. The
Company, in consultation with its advisors, is currently exploring all of these
alternatives.
Outlook
In light of the current challenging business environment, the Company remains
cautious with respect to its estimates for the fourth quarter of this year and
for the first half of 2002. The Company is maintaining its estimate of 15% for
the long-term annualized sustainable blended growth rate in the Accounts Payable
business.
For the fourth quarter 2001, revenues from continuing operations are expected to
be in the range of $82.0 - $85.0 million. Excluding non-recurring charges,
earnings per diluted share from continuing operations for the fourth quarter are
expected to be in the range of $0.08 - $0.10. As a result, excluding
non-recurring charges, full year 2001 earnings per diluted share are expected to
be in the range of $0.15 - $0.17.
For full-year 2002, the Company expects its continuing operations on a
stand-alone basis to generate revenues in the range of $310.0 - $320.0 million,
with earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.45 - $0.50.
The outlook for full-year 2002 includes the impact of the adoption of FAS 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," effective January 1, 2002. FAS 142
requires that an intangible asset be amortized over its useful life and that
goodwill not be amortized but evaluated periodically for impairment.
Accordingly, the 2002 outlook does not include any goodwill amortization
expense. For purposes of comparison, in 2001 goodwill amortization expense for
the Company's continuing operations is expected to total approximately $12
million, or $0.15 per diluted share.
The 2002 outlook also does not include goodwill impairment charges, if any,
which may be required under FAS 142. To date, the Company has not made an
evaluation or assessment of future potential goodwill impairment under the rules
prescribed in FAS 142.
The outlook for the fourth quarter of 2001 and full-year 2002 excludes any
impact of non-recurring charges, revenue contribution and earnings impact
resulting from the planned acquisition of Howard Schultz and Associates or
possible additional debt or equity financing. The Company currently estimates
that fourth quarter 2001 one-time charges associated with realignment and
integration activities will be approximately $0.04 per diluted share.

Forward Looking Statements
Statements made in this news release which look forward in time involve risks
and uncertainties and are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such risks and uncertainties
include the possibilities that (i) we may be unable to obtain current or
prospective covenant relief from our lenders and our indebtedness could be
accelerated or our credit facility revoked, (ii) if the current economic
slowdown continues, our clients may not return to previous purchasing levels,
and as a result we may be unable to recognize anticipated revenues, (iii)
announced divestitures may require a longer time to accomplish than we
anticipate, or may not be consummated at all, and we may incur additional losses
if, upon disposal, we do not receive the prices we anticipate for such
businesses and may incur unanticipated further charges as a result of our
divestiture initiatives, (iv) the announced intention to dispose of the
discontinued operations may result in the loss of key personnel and diminished
operating results in such operations, (v) we may not achieve anticipated expense
savings, (vi) our past and future investments in technology and e-commerce may
not benefit our business, (vii) our Accounts Payable and French Taxation
Services businesses may not grow as expected, (viii) our international expansion
may prove unprofitable, (ix) a decision to sell Groupe Alma could result in a
material net loss on the transaction; (x) we may not be able to successfully
complete the acquisition of Howard Schultz and Associates or successfully
integrate such firm and achieve the substantial planned post-acquisition synergy
cost savings even if the acquisition is completed, and (xi) we may be unable to
obtain any necessary additional debt or equity financing on acceptable terms or
at all. If the acquisition of Howard Schultz and Associates is not completed,
the Company will incur a substantial charge to operations for cumulative
out-of-pocket business combination costs incurred and may be required to pay
HSA-Texas transaction expenses and/or a breakup fee. Other risks and
uncertainties that may affect our business include (i) our ability to
effectively manage our business during the divestitures and our business
integration with Howard Schultz and Associates, (ii) the possibility of an
adverse judgment in pending securities litigation, (iii) the impact of certain
accounting pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission, (iv) potential timing issues
that could delay revenue recognition, (v) the effect of strikes, (vi) future
weakness in the currencies of countries in which we transact business, (vii)
changes in economic cycles, (viii) competition from other companies, (ix) the
effect of bankruptcies of our larger clients, (x) changes in governmental
regulations applicable to us, and other risk factors, detailed in our Securities
and Exchange Commission filings, including the Company's Form S-4 filed

duty to update or modify these forward-looking statements.
