Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (“Altisource” or the “Company”)
(NASDAQ: ASPS), a leading provider and marketplace for the real
estate and mortgage industries, today reported financial results
for the second quarter 2023.
“Our Adjusted EBITDA performance continues to
improve over 2022. Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was 47% better
than the same period in 2022 and year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA was
81%, or $8.7 million better. Based on our current forecast, we
anticipate roughly break-even Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter
and positive Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter and full year.
While our second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was impacted by an
estimated $0.9 million from certain unexpected non-recurring items,
we remain ahead of our Adjusted EBITDA plan for the first half of
the year. Despite improving second quarter Adjusted EBITDA compared
to the same period in 2022, interest expense from the higher
interest rate environment and our amended term loan contributed to
the greater second quarter 2023 Adjusted net loss. Second quarter
service revenue was lower than the same quarter last year primarily
from the exit of a low margin customer care business in the fourth
quarter 2022, the decline in a customer's propensity to order
service in two of our lower margin default related businesses and
unexpected temporary delays in certain California foreclosures. We
believe those temporary foreclosure holds are now behind us and
that the associated revenue is largely deferred and not lost,” said
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William B. Shepro.
Mr. Shepro further commented, “We continue to
position Altisource to take advantage of what we see as significant
potential opportunities in the residential mortgage default market
over the coming years as the market continues to normalize. Our
sales pipeline and wins in both of our segments remain strong, and
we continue to aggressively manage our expenses. Our consolidated
weighted average pipeline at the end of the second quarter is an
estimated $63 million of annual revenue on a stabilized basis,
representing 48% of our annualized second quarter 2023 revenue. We
are also winning new business. Since last quarter, we’ve won
business that we estimate will generate $18.6 million of annual
revenue on a stabilized basis. This includes a July win of $12.8
million from a new asset management client that we estimate will
generate $3 million to $5 million per year in Adjusted EBITDA
across Hubzu and most of our other default solutions. During the
quarter, we continued to onboard and grow sales wins from 2022 and
2023, which combined are now at a $13 million annualized revenue
run rate. Finally, from a cost perspective, in July we began to
implement a company-wide cost reduction plan that we estimate will
reduce annual cash operating expenses by $13.5 million once
complete.”
Second Quarter
2023
Highlights(1)
Corporate and Financial:
- Ended the second
quarter 2023 with $35.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and
$15.0 million available under a revolving credit facility
- Ended the second
quarter 2023 with $194.7 million of net debt(2)
- Second quarter
Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and
amortization (“EBITDA”)(2) of $(3.5) million and year-to-date
June 2023 EBITDA(2) of $(2.0) million was 47% and 81%,
respectively, better than the same periods in 2022; second quarter
2023 EBITDA was negatively impacted by a temporary delay in certain
California foreclosures (resulting in an estimated $(0.5) million
reduction in EBITDA) and the settlement of a non-recurring
litigation matter (resulting in a $(0.4) million reduction in
EBITDA)
- Second quarter
Adjusted EBITDA loss in the Corporate segment was $2.3 million, or
19%, better than the same quarter in 2022
- In July 2023,
the Company began to implement a company-wide cost reduction plan
which is estimated to reduce annual cash operating expenses by
$13.5 million once complete
Business and Industry:
- Industrywide
foreclosure initiations were 13% lower for the six months ended
June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 (and 31%
lower than the same pre-COVID-19 period in 2019)(3)
- Industrywide
foreclosure sales were 23% higher for the six months ended
June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 (although
still 46% lower than the same pre-COVID-19 period in 2019)(3)
- Industrywide
early-stage mortgage delinquencies (30-days late) increased by 2.2%
and borrowers who’ve missed two payments (60-days past due)
increased by 1.7% in June 2023 compared to May 2023(3)
- The weighted
average sales pipeline in the Servicer and Real Estate segment
represents $34 million to $43 million of estimated annual revenue
on a stabilized basis based upon our forecasted probability of
closing
- The weighted
average sales pipeline in the Origination segment represents $22
million to $27 million of estimated annual revenue on a stabilized
basis based upon our forecasted probability of closing; this
includes $9 million in weighted revenue opportunities related to
pricing proposals to Lenders One members and prospects for our
newer reseller business
- The Servicer and
Real Estate segment and Origination segment each had strong sales
wins which we estimate represent $2.9 million and $2.9 million,
respectively, of annualized revenue on a stabilized basis
- In July 2023,
the Servicer and Real Estate segment won business from a new
customer that we estimate will generate $12.8 million in annual
revenue and $3 million to $5 million per year in Adjusted EBITDA
across the default solutions; referrals are anticipated to begin in
the third quarter of 2023 with revenue and earnings stabilization
anticipated by the middle of 2024, if not sooner

ALTISOURCE PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS
S.A.NON-GAAP MEASURES(in
thousands, except per share
data)(unaudited)
Adjusted operating loss, pretax loss
attributable to Altisource, adjusted pretax loss attributable to
Altisource, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss attributable to
Altisource, adjusted diluted loss per share, net cash used in
operating activities less additions to premises and equipment and
net debt, which are presented elsewhere in this earnings release,
are non-GAAP measures used by management, existing shareholders,
potential shareholders and other users of our financial information
to measure Altisource’s performance and do not purport to be
alternatives to loss from operations, loss before income taxes and
non-controlling interests, net loss attributable to Altisource,
diluted loss per share, net cash used in operating activities and
long-term debt, including current portion, as measures of
Altisource’s performance. We believe these measures are useful to
management, existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other
users of our financial information in evaluating operating
profitability and cash flow generation more on the basis of
continuing cost and cash flows as they exclude amortization expense
related to acquisitions that occurred in prior periods and non-cash
share-based compensation, as well as the effect of more significant
non-operational items from earnings, cash flows from operating
activities and long-term debt net of cash on-hand. We believe these
measures are also useful in evaluating the effectiveness of our
operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is
consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance.
Furthermore, we believe the exclusion of more significant
non-operational items enables comparability to prior period
performance and trend analysis. Specifically, management uses
adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource to measure the
on-going after tax performance of the Company because the measure
adjusts for the after tax impact of more significant non-recurring
items, amortization expense relating to prior acquisitions (some of
which fluctuates with revenue from certain customers and some of
which is amortized on a straight-line basis) and non-cash
share-based compensation expense which can fluctuate based on
vesting schedules, grant date timing and the value attributable to
awards. We believe adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource is
useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other
users of our financial information because it provides an after-tax
measure of Altisource’s on-going performance that enables these
users to perform trend analysis using comparable data. Management
uses adjusted diluted loss per share to further evaluate adjusted
net loss attributable to Altisource while taking into account
changes in the number of diluted shares over the comparable
periods. We believe adjusted diluted loss per share is useful to
existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of
our financial information because it also enables these users to
evaluate adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource on a per
share basis. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure the
Company’s overall performance (with the adjustments discussed
earlier with regard to adjusted net loss attributable to
Altisource) without regard to its capitalization (debt vs. equity)
or its income taxes and to perform trend analysis of the Company’s
performance over time. Our effective income tax rate can vary based
on the jurisdictional mix of our income. Additionally, as the
Company’s capital expenditures have significantly declined over
time, it provides a measure for management to evaluate the
Company’s performance without regard to prior capital expenditures.
Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA as one of the measures in
determining bonus compensation for certain employees. We believe
Adjusted EBITDA is useful to existing shareholders, potential
shareholders and other users of our financial information for the
same reasons that management finds the measure useful. Management
uses net debt in evaluating the amount of debt the Company has that
is in excess of cash and cash equivalents. We believe net debt is
useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other
users of our financial information for the same reasons management
finds the measure useful.
Altisource operates in several countries,
including Luxembourg, India, the United States and Uruguay. The
Company has differing effective tax rates in each country and these
rates may change from year to year. In determining the tax effects
related to the adjustments in calculating adjusted net loss
attributable to Altisource and adjusted diluted loss per share, we
use the tax rate in the country in which the adjustment applies or,
if the adjustment is recognized in more than one country, we
separate the adjustment by country, apply the relevant tax rate for
each country to the applicable adjustment, and then sum the result
to arrive at the total adjustment, net of tax. In 2019, the Company
recognized a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax
assets in Luxembourg. Accordingly, for 2023 and 2022, the Company
has an effective tax rate of close to 0% in Luxembourg.
It is management’s intent to provide non-GAAP
financial information to enhance the understanding of Altisource’s
GAAP financial information, and it should be considered by the
reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure
is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to
imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.
The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or
calculated differently by other companies. The non-GAAP financial
information should not be unduly relied upon.
Adjusted operating loss is calculated by
removing intangible asset amortization expense, share-based
compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives and other,
debt amendment costs and Unrealized loss on warrant liability from
loss from operations. Pretax loss attributable to Altisource is
calculated by removing non-controlling interests from loss before
income taxes and non-controlling interests. Adjusted pretax loss
attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing
non-controlling interests, intangible asset amortization expense,
share-based compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives
and other, debt amendment costs and unrealized loss on warrant
liability from loss before income taxes and non-controlling
interests. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing the income tax
provision, interest expense (net of interest income), depreciation
and amortization, share-based compensation expense, cost of cost
savings initiatives and other, debt amendment costs and unrealized
loss on warrant liability from net loss attributable to Altisource.
Adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by
removing intangible asset amortization expense (net of tax),
share-based compensation expense (net of tax), cost of cost savings
initiatives and other (net of tax), debt amendment costs,
unrealized loss on warrant liability and certain income tax related
items from net loss attributable to Altisource. Adjusted diluted
loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to
Altisource after removing intangible asset amortization expense
(net of tax), share-based compensation expense (net of tax), cost
of cost savings initiatives and other (net of tax), debt amendment
costs (net of tax), unrealized loss on warrant liability (net of
tax) and certain income tax related items by the weighted average
number of diluted shares. Net cash used in operating activities
less additions to premises and equipment is calculated by removing
additions to premises and equipment from net cash used in operating
activities. Net debt is calculated as long-term debt, including
current portion, minus cash and cash equivalents.
Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the
corresponding GAAP measures are as follows:
