DANBURY, Conn. & RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 22, 2020--IQVIA Holdings Inc. (“IQVIA”) (NYSE:IQV), a leading global provider of advanced analytics, technology solutions, and contract research services to the life sciences industry, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Second-Quarter 2020 Operating Results
Revenue for the second quarter was $2,521 million compared to $2,740 million in the second quarter of 2019, down 7.1 percent at constant currency and 8.0 percent on a reported basis. Technology & Analytics Solutions (TAS) revenue was $1,109 million compared to $1,102 million in the second quarter of 2019, representing growth of 2.0 percent at constant currency and 0.6 percent reported. R&D Solutions (R&DS) revenue was $1,235 million compared to $1,435 million in the second quarter of 2019, down 13.3 percent at constant currency and 13.9 percent reported. Excluding the impact of pass throughs, R&DS revenue was lower by 10.8 percent year-over-year on a reported basis. Contract Sales & Medical Solutions (CSMS) revenue was $177 million compared to $203 million in the second quarter of 2019, lower by 12.3 percent at constant currency and 12.8 percent on a reported basis.

R&DS contracted backlog, including reimbursed expenses, grew 13.5 percent year-over-year to $20.5 billion at June 30, 2020. The company expects approximately $5.4 billion of this backlog to convert to revenue in the next twelve months, up from $4.9 billion at March 31, 2020. The contracted book-to-bill ratio including reimbursed expenses was 1.64x for the second quarter of 2020. Excluding reimbursed expenses, the second-quarter contracted book-to-bill ratio was 1.60x. For the last twelve months ended June 30, 2020, the contracted book-to-bill ratio was 1.43x including reimbursed expenses and 1.42x excluding reimbursed expenses.

Second-quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA was $483 million. GAAP net income was $(23) million, and GAAP diluted earnings per share was $(0.12). Adjusted Net Income was $229 million and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $1.18.

“Against the background of the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we delivered second quarter results that exceeded our expectations,” said Ari Bousbib, chairman and CEO of IQVIA. “As we had assumed, the R&DS business saw a gradual increase in the accessibility of clinical research sites, exiting the quarter at 40 percent accessibility and currently at 53 percent, resulting in an improvement in the number of weekly onsite visits from the start of the quarter. Deliveries in our TAS segment continued with little disruption, and demand for our technology and analytics offerings remains resilient. I am proud of how the IQVIA team is executing in this environment - supporting our improved outlook for the year.”

First-Half 2020 Operating Results
Revenue for the first six months of 2020 was $5,275 million compared to $5,424 million during the first six months of 2019, down 1.8 percent on a constant currency basis and 2.7 percent on a reported basis. TAS revenue was $2,226 million compared to $2,177 million in the first half of 2019, representing growth of 3.7 percent at constant currency and 2.3 percent reported. R&DS revenue was $2,676 million compared to $2,851 million in the first half of 2019, down 5.5 percent at constant currency and 6.1 percent reported. CSMS revenue was $373 million compared to $396 million in the first half of 2019, lower by 5.1 percent at constant currency and 5.8 percent reported.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first six months of 2020 was $1,045 million. GAAP net income was $59 million and GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.30. Adjusted Net Income was $523 million for the first six months of 2020 and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $2.68.

Financial Position
The company continues to maintain strong liquidity. As of June 30, 2020, cash and cash equivalents were $1.1 billion and the company’s $1.5 billion revolving credit facility was undrawn. During the second quarter, the company refinanced its 3.5 percent senior notes due 2024, extending the maturity to 2028. At the end of the second quarter of 2020, IQVIA’s Net Leverage Ratio was 4.8x trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA.

Share Repurchase
When the COVID-19 outbreak became a pandemic in March, the company temporarily suspended share repurchase activity. The company did not repurchase any shares during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the company had approximately $1.0 billion of share repurchase authorization remaining.

2020 Guidance
The future course of COVID-19 is inherently uncertain. Several factors related to the COVID-19 outbreak are outside the company’s control and could impact the company’s future operating results, including the pandemic’s severity and duration, its impact on healthcare systems and economies around the world, and the nature and effectiveness of governmental responses to the outbreak. However, the company has used its best efforts to estimate the impact of COVID-19 on its business and the resulting impact on financial performance for the balance of the year. On April 28, 2020, the company outlined its assumptions regarding the global progression of the virus, the percentage of clinical research sites accessible to us throughout 2020, and our ability to interact with clients to support business development activities. These assumptions supported the company’s 2020 guidance provided at that time. During the second quarter, it became apparent that the global spread of the virus would become wider and more prolonged than we had assumed. However, the percentage of sites accessible to us tracked in line with our assumptions, and business development activities progressed better than our original assumptions.

Based on the company’s better than expected performance in the second quarter, the company’s ability to execute in this environment, incremental COVID-19 trial work, an evaluation of current business conditions and outlook for the balance of the year, the company is now forecasting better performance in its TAS segment and better execution against its R&DS backlog than previously anticipated. Together these factors are expected to contribute to improved financial performance in 2020 versus the company’s expectations on April 28, 2020. As a result, the company is raising its full-year guidance ranges as follows:

($ millions, except per share data)	Updated	Prior ⁽¹⁾
Revenue	$11,000 - $11,100	$10,600 - $10,925

Adjusted EBITDA	$2,295 - $2,345	$2,200 - $2,300

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share	$6.10 - $6.30	$5.75 - $6.10

⁽¹⁾ Provided on Q1 2020 earnings call on April 28, 2020

For the third quarter of 2020, the company expects revenue to be between $2,725 million and $2,775 million, Adjusted EBITDA to be between $564 million and $582 million, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to be between $1.47 and $1.55.

Full-year and third-quarter financial guidance assumes foreign currency exchange rates at the end of the second quarter remain in effect for the remainder of the year.

In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” “target,” similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. Actual results may differ materially from our expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: business disruptions caused by natural disasters, pandemics such as the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak and the governmental responses to the outbreak, international conflicts or other disruptions outside of our control; our ability to accurately model or forecast the impact of the spread and/or containment of COVID-19, among other sources of business interruption, on our operations and financial results; most of our contracts may be terminated on short notice, and we may lose or experience delays with large client contracts or be unable to enter into new contracts; the market for our services may not grow as we expect; we may be unable to successfully develop and market new services or enter new markets; imposition of restrictions on our use of data by data suppliers or their refusal to license data to us; any failure by us to comply with contractual, regulatory or ethical requirements under our contracts, including current or changes to data protection and privacy laws; breaches or misuse of our or our outsourcing partners’ security or communications systems; failure to meet our productivity or business transformation objectives; failure to successfully invest in growth opportunities; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and our susceptibility to claims by others that we are infringing on their intellectual property rights; the expiration or inability to acquire third party licenses for technology or intellectual property; any failure by us to accurately and timely price and formulate cost estimates for contracts, or to document change orders; hardware and software failures, delays in the operation of our computer and communications systems or the failure to implement system enhancements; the rate at which our backlog converts to revenue; our ability to acquire, develop and implement technology necessary for our business; consolidation in the industries in which our clients operate; risks related to client or therapeutic concentration; government regulators or our customers may limit the scope of prescription or withdraw products from the market, and government regulators may impose new regulatory requirements or may adopt new regulations affecting the biopharmaceutical industry; the risks associated with operating on a global basis, including currency or exchange rate fluctuations and legal compliance, including anti-corruption laws; risks related to changes in accounting standards; general economic conditions in the markets in which we operate, including financial market conditions and risks related to sales to government entities; the impact of changes in tax laws and regulations; and our ability to successfully integrate, and achieve expected benefits from, our acquired businesses. For a further discussion of the risks relating to the combined company’s business, see the “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC, as such factors may be amended or updated from time to time in our subsequent periodic and other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release and in our filings with the SEC. We assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statement after the date of this release, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Estimated COVID-19 Impact
Non-GAAP results, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS are presented only as a supplement to the company’s financial statements based on GAAP. Non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance understanding of the company’s financial performance, but none of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP, and non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release. The company uses non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more meaningful indicator of the underlying operating performance of the business. For example, the company excludes all the amortization of intangible assets associated with acquired customer relationships and backlog, databases, non-compete agreements and trademarks, trade names and other from non-GAAP expense and income measures as such amounts can be significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining net income attributable to IQVIA Holdings Inc. As a result, internal management reports feature non-GAAP measures which are also used to prepare strategic plans and annual budgets and review management compensation. The company also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures.

Our full-year and third-quarter 2020 guidance measures (other than revenue) are provided on a non-GAAP basis because the company is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, acquisition and integration related expenses, restructuring and related charges, stock-based compensation and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.

Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to the company, many of which present non-GAAP measures when reporting their results. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool. They are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or liquidity and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, you should not consider such performance measures in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

The estimates for future periods are based in part on a number of assumptions outside the Company’s control. Normal business activities have been substantially disrupted by the COVID-19 outbreak. These business disruptions include various restrictions and limitations on our ability to perform on-site monitoring, execution of change orders, delivery of offerings that rely on face to face interaction or in person gatherings, and sale of information offerings, analytics and consulting projects. The unfavorable impact on R&DS revenue attributable to COVID-19 is largely due to operational disruption of clinical research sites, which impacts patient recruitment and patient study participation, and limitations on our ability to travel and access clinical research sites. These site access restrictions and impact on clinical trial conduct by the sites have a direct impact on our ability to perform our services and cause delays relative to pre-COVID-19 timelines. In our TAS business, certain offerings that rely on face-to-face interactions or are dependent on in-person gatherings, events or are expected to experience significant disruption, and where we are unable to execute on our commitments due to COVID-19, we are not able to recognize the associated revenue in the period. Similarly, the portion of our Real World business that requires site monitoring activity will be impacted by site closures, with a reduction in associated revenue. Activity within the Contract Sales and Medical Solutions business has also become more challenging due to a decline in visits to physicians by our sales representatives, and physician attention diverted to the COVID-19 crisis.
