LINCOLNSHIRE, IL – May 9, 2023 – Alight (NYSE: ALIT), a leading cloud-based provider of integrated digital human capital and business solutions, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
“Alight achieved a key milestone in the first quarter surpassing $1.5 billion in cumulative BPaaS bookings, nine months earlier than our original three-year projections, demonstrating continued momentum from 2022,” said Chief Executive Officer Stephan Scholl. “Ongoing investments in our platform strategy and a recently announced partnership with Workday in key European countries are enhancing our value proposition and the outcomes we deliver for employers and their people, illustrated by new and expanded customer relationships as well as a growing pipeline. Through our continued focus on profitable growth, we believe we remain on track to achieve our 2023 targets of double-digit growth, margin expansion and improved operating cash flow conversion.”
First Quarter 2023 Highlights
First Quarter 2023 Results
Consolidated Results
Revenue grew 14.6% to $831 million, as compared to $725 million in the prior year period. The growth was driven by more than a 16% increase in Employer Solutions revenue due to increased net commercial activity, project revenue, and volumes as well as the impact of our 2022 acquisition and 8.9% growth in Professional Services revenue. Recurring revenues, which comprised 85.7% of total revenue, increased by 16% to $712 million mainly due to growth in Employer Solutions revenue.
Gross profit was $257 million or 30.9% of revenue compared to $223 million, or 30.8% of revenue in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by revenue growth as noted above, partially offset by increases in costs associated with the growth in revenues.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $185 million, compared to $140 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to progress made against our previously announced restructuring program as well as the inclusion of expenses from our 2022 acquisition.
Interest expense was $33 million as compared to $29 million in the prior year period. The increase in expense was primarily due to higher interest expense on our Term Loan due to movement in market interest rates.
The Company’s loss before income tax benefit of $82 million compared to a loss before income tax expense of $12 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to non-operating fair value remeasurements of financial instruments and the tax receivable agreement.
First Quarter 2023 Segment Results
Employer Solutions
Employer Solutions is driven by Alight’s digital, software and AI-led capabilities and spans total employee wellbeing and engagement, including integrated benefits administration, healthcare navigation, financial health, employee wellness and payroll.
Employer Solutions revenues grew more than 16% to $723 million, as compared to $623 million in the prior year period, as a result of increased net commercial activity, project revenue, and volumes as well as the impact of our 2022 acquisition. Recurring revenue grew more than 17% to $669 million, while project revenue grew roughly 2% to $54 million.
Employer Solutions gross profit was $238 million, as compared to $204 million in the prior year period, up 16.7% driven by revenue growth and lower expenses related to productivity initiatives, partially offset by employee compensation costs and increases in costs associated with growth of current and future revenues. Employer Solutions adjusted gross profit was $264 million, as compared to $221 million in the prior year period, up almost 20% or $43 million primarily due to the factors impacting gross profit above.
Professional Services
Professional Services revenues were up 8.9% to $98 million as compared to $90 million in the prior year period as a result of higher recurring revenue and higher project revenue. Recurring revenue and project revenue increased by $3 million and $5 million, respectively.
Professional Services gross profit was flat at $19 million for both periods. Professional Services adjusted gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $20 million as compared to $19 million in the prior year period.

Reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP measures used in this press release are included below. Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to the expectations regarding the performance and outlook for Alight’s business, financial results, liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements, including statements in the “Business Outlook” section of this press release. In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,”
“plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties including, among others, risks related to declines in economic activity in the industries, markets, and regions our clients serve, including as a result of increases in inflation rates or interest rates or changes in monetary and fiscal policies, bank failures, risks related to the performance of our information technology systems and networks, risks related to our ability to maintain the security and privacy of confidential and proprietary information, risks related to changes in regulation, and, competition in our industry. Additional factors that could cause Alight’s results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found under the section entitled “Risk Factors” of Alight’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 1, 2023, as such factors may be updated from time to time in Alight's filings with the SEC, which are, or will be, accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be considered along with other factors noted in this presentation and in Alight’s filings with the SEC. Alight undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the tables below. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance our investors’ and lenders’ understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. This discussion is not meant to be considered in isolation, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and intangible amortization adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management and our stakeholders to provide useful supplemental information that enables a better comparison of our performance across periods. Both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA less Capital Expenditures are non-GAAP measures that are used by management and stakeholders to evaluate our core operating performance.
Adjusted Net Income, which is defined as net loss attributable to Alight, Inc. adjusted for intangible amortization and the impact of certain non-cash items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, is a non-GAAP financial measure used solely for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share.
Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the adjusted weighted-average number of shares of Alight Inc. common stock, diluted. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is used by us and our investors to evaluate our core operating performance and to benchmark our operating performance against our competitors.
Operating Cash Flow Conversion is defined as cash provided by operating activities divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Operating Cash Flow Conversion is used by management and stakeholders to evaluate our core operating performance.
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin Percent. Adjusted gross profit is defined as revenue less cost of services adjusted for depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation. Adjusted gross margin percent is defined as adjusted gross profit divided by revenue. Management uses adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin percent as key measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. We believe that presenting adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin percent is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash expenses and allows a direct comparison between periods.
