MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 2, 2023--
Deluxe (NYSE: DLX), a Trusted Payments and Business Technology™ company, today reported operating results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
“Deluxe has now delivered its second consecutive year of sales-driven growth, an achievement not seen in over a decade. This proves our ability to shift into a Payments and Data company, with Payments becoming our largest revenue business in the first half of 2023,” said Barry McCarthy, President and CEO of Deluxe. “Full year revenue was driven by increases in all four segments, particularly our growth areas within Payments and Data, which includes Merchant Services, Digital Payments, and Data Driven Marketing.”

Web Hosting Divestiture and Segment Name Change
Deluxe recently announced the divestiture of its North American web hosting and logo businesses. Deluxe previously completed the divestiture of its web hosting business based in Australia. With this latest announcement, Deluxe is no longer in the web hosting business, and continues to sharpen its focus on Payments and Data by simplifying its portfolio and operations. We expect the transaction to close during the first quarter of 2023. In conjunction with this sale, Deluxe has changed the name of its Cloud Solutions segment to Data Solutions.
Outlook
The Company expects the following for full-year 2023, inclusive of expected divestitures, and all figures are approximate:
For additional clarity, 2023 revenue is expected to range from -1 to +2% growth, and EBITDA is expected to range from -2 to +2% growth on an adjusted comparable basis. Adjusted EPS is expected to decline year-over-year due to the full year impact of rising interest rates, incremental depreciation and amortization, and an estimated $0.25 impact from the announced divestiture. Factoring in the impact of the divestiture, the free cash flow guide is an increase year-over-year on a comparable adjusted basis.
The guidance outlined above is subject to, among other things, the closure of the web hosting and logo divestiture by April 1, 2023, prevailing macroeconomic conditions, labor supply issues, inflation, and the impact of other divestitures.
Capital Allocation and Dividend
The Board of Directors recently approved a regular quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share. The dividend will be payable on March 6, 2023 to shareholders of record as of market closing on February 21, 2023.

DELUXE CORPORATION
RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES
(in millions)
(Unaudited)
Note that the company has not reconciled the adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS or free cash flow outlook for 2023 to the directly comparable GAAP financial measures because the company does not provide outlook guidance for the reconciling items between net income, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA, and certain of these reconciling items impact cash flows from operating activities. Because of the substantial uncertainty and variability surrounding certain of these forward-looking reconciling items, including: asset impairment charges; restructuring, integration and other costs; gains and losses on sales of businesses and facilities; and certain legal-related expenses, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort. The probable significance of certain of these reconciling items is high and, based on historical experience, could be material.
EBITDA, ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN
Management discloses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin because it believes they are useful in evaluating the company's operating performance, as the calculations eliminate the effect of interest expense, income taxes, the accounting effects of capital investments (i.e., depreciation and amortization) and in the case of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, certain items, as presented below, that may not be indicative of current period operating performance. In addition, management utilizes these measures to assess the operating results and performance of the business, to perform analytical comparisons and to identify strategies to improve performance. Management also believes that an increasing EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA depict an increase in the value of the company. Management does not consider EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be measures of cash flow, as they do not consider certain cash requirements, such as interest, income taxes, debt service payments or capital investments. Management does not consider EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA margin to be substitutes for operating income or net income. Instead, management believes that these amounts are useful performance measures that should be considered in addition to GAAP performance measures.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS
By excluding the impact of non-cash items or items that may not be indicative of current period operating performance, management believes that adjusted diluted EPS provides useful comparable information to assist in analyzing the company's current and future operating performance. As such, adjusted diluted EPS is one of the key financial performance metrics used to assess the operating results and performance of the business and to identify strategies to improve performance. It is reasonable to expect that one or more of the excluded items will occur in future periods, but the amounts recognized may vary significantly. Management does not consider adjusted diluted EPS to be a substitute for GAAP performance measures, but believes that it is a useful performance measure that should be considered in addition to GAAP performance measures.

| (1) | The tax effect of the pretax adjustments considers the tax treatment and related tax rate(s) that apply to each adjustment in the applicable tax jurisdiction(s). Generally, this results in a tax impact that approximates the U.S. effective tax rate for each adjustment. However, the tax impact of certain adjustments, such as share-based compensation expense, depends on whether the amounts are deductible in the respective tax jurisdictions and the applicable effective tax rate(s) in those jurisdictions. |

COMPARABLE ADJUSTED REVENUE, COMPARABLE ADJUSTED EBITDA AND COMPARABLE ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN
Management views the measures of comparable adjusted revenue and comparable adjusted EBITDA, which exclude the incremental revenue and adjusted EBITDA generated by the First American acquisition and the impact of business exits, as important indicators when assessing and evaluating the performance of the business and when identifying strategies to improve performance. By excluding the incremental First American revenue and adjusted EBITDA and the impact of business exits, management is able to evaluate internally-generated revenue and adjusted EBITDA, measured by comparable results on a year-over-year basis. These measures are utilized by management when comparing operational performance across fiscal periods with a large acquisition or business exits.

NET DEBT
Management believes that net debt is an important measure to monitor leverage and to evaluate the balance sheet. In calculating net debt, cash and cash equivalents are subtracted from total debt because they could be used to reduce the company’s debt obligations. A limitation associated with using net debt is that it subtracts cash and cash equivalents, and therefore, may imply that management intends to use cash and cash equivalents to reduce outstanding debt. In addition, net debt suggests that our debt obligations are less than the most comparable GAAP measure indicates.

FREE CASH FLOW
Management defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of capital assets. Management believes that free cash flow is an important indicator of cash available for debt service and for shareholders, after making capital investments to maintain or expand the company’s asset base. A limitation of using the free cash flow measure is that not all of the company’s free cash flow is available for discretionary spending, as the company may have mandatory debt payments and other cash requirements that must be deducted from its cash available for future use. Free cash flow is not a substitute for GAAP liquidity measures. Instead, management believes that this measurement provides an additional metric to compare cash generated by operations on a consistent basis and to provide insight into the cash flow available to fund items such as dividends, mandatory and discretionary debt reduction, acquisitions or other strategic investments, and share repurchases.
