Monotype Announces Second Quarter 2016 Results

Company continues to see strong growth in Creative Professional business

WOBURN, Mass.--()--Monotype (Nasdaq: TYPE), a leader in helping to empower expression and engagement through type, technology and expertise, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016. This announcement follows the company’s July 21 announcement that it intends to acquire Olapic. A 190-person company based in New York City, Olapic offers a leading visual marketing platform for the curation, activation, and analysis of Earned Content.

Second quarter 2016 highlights

  • Revenue for the quarter was $48.7 million, an increase of 5 percent, year over year.
  • Creative Professional revenue was $23.5 million, up 13 percent.
  • Net income was $6.7 million and non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA was $17.1 million, or 35 percent of revenue.
  • Cash and cash equivalents stood at $109.5 million.

“Monotype’s business is solid, and in the second quarter, we saw another strong performance from Creative Professional,” said Scott Landers, president and chief executive officer of Monotype. “Brands are increasingly turning to us for help in addressing new design and marketing use cases. We believe that our ability to meet these new needs – through our current solutions and over time through those from Olapic – will continue to be a sustainable, long-term growth driver for the company.”

Joe Hill, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Monotype, said, “We remain encouraged by the continued traction within the Creative Professional business, which we believe is being positively impacted by the investments we’ve made over the past several years. These investments are allowing Monotype to add value for our customers to address multiple use cases within their organizations, which makes our offerings even more attractive to brands.”

Second quarter 2016 operating results
Revenue for the quarter increased five percent to $48.7 million, compared to $46.4 million for the second quarter of 2015. Creative Professional revenue was $23.5 million, a 13 percent increase from the second quarter of 2015. OEM revenue was $25.3 million, a decrease of 2 percent from the same period in 2015.

GAAP net income was $6.7 million, compared to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2015. Earnings per diluted share were $0.16, compared to $0.15 in the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA was $17.1 million, or 35 percent of revenue, compared to $16.4 million in the second quarter of 2015.

Non-GAAP net income, which excludes the amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related contingent consideration expense, net of taxes, was $10.7 million, compared to $9.3 million in the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.27 compared to $0.24 in the prior year period.

Cash and cash flow
Monotype had cash and cash equivalents of $109.5 million as of June 30, 2016, compared to $95.4 million as of March 31, 2016 and $74.6 million as of June 30, 2015. The company generated $17.7 million of cash from operations in the second quarter of 2016.

Quarterly dividend
Monotype’s most recent dividend payment of $0.11 per share was paid on July 21, 2016, to shareholders of record as of July 1, 2016. The next dividend payment of $0.11 per share will be paid on October 21, 2016, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 3, 2016.

Financial outlook
For the third quarter of 2016, Monotype expects revenue in the range of $49.0 million to $52.0 million. The company anticipates third quarter 2016 net income in the range of $5.5 million to $7.2 million, non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA in the range of $16.5 million to $19.0 million, earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.14 to $0.18 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.24 to $0.28.

Monotype has analyzed the impact of FX changes following Brexit, and as a result, is lowering its previously issued, full year 2016 guidance to reflect the expected impact of exchange rates on revenue and earnings, which is expected to have a $2.5 million dollar full-year impact on revenue and $1.0 million dollar impact on non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA. The company now expects revenue in the range of $199.5 million to $205.5 million. Monotype expects full year 2016 net income in the range of $25.4 million to $28.6 million, non-GAAP net adjusted EBITDA in the range of $71.0 million to $76.0 million, earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.64 to $0.72 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.05 to $1.13. The company’s guidance does not include the impact of its proposed acquisition of Olapic.

Non-GAAP financial measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This non-GAAP information supplements and is not intended to represent a measure of performance in accordance with disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to manage the business, such as in establishing an annual operating budget and in reporting to lenders. Non-GAAP financial measures are used by Monotype management in its operating and financial decision-making because management believes these measures reflect ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Accordingly, Monotype believes it is useful for investors and others to review both GAAP and non-GAAP measures in order to (a) understand and evaluate current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, and (b) compare in a consistent manner the company’s current financial results with past financial results. The primary limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures are that these measures may not be directly comparable to the amounts reported by other companies and they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations. Monotype management compensates for these limitations by considering the company’s financial results and outlook as determined in accordance with GAAP and by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables attached to this press release.

Forward-looking statements
This press release may contain forward-looking statements including those related to the company’s future revenues and operating results; the growth of the company’s Creative Professional business and OEM business; the company’s expected acquisition of Olapic and the financial impact of the acquisition; and the execution of the company’s product, growth and expansion strategies and anticipated business momentum that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the company’s actual results to differ materially. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: risks associated with changes in the economic climate including decreased demand for the company’s products or products that incorporate the company’s solutions; risks associated with the company’s ability to adapt its products or services to new markets and to anticipate and quickly respond to evolving technologies and customer requirements; risks associated with the company’s development of and the market acceptance of new products, product features or services; risks associated with the company’s consummation of the Olapic acquisition, including the ability to close the proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all; risks associated with the company’s ability to expand products and services offered through acquired companies; risks associated with increased competition in markets the company serves, including the risks that increased competition may result in the company’s inability to gain new customers, retain existing customers or may force the company to reduce prices; risks associated with the ownership and enforcement of the company’s intellectual property; and risks associated with geopolitical conditions and changes in the financial markets. Additional disclosure regarding these and other risks faced by the company is available in the company’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and subsequent filings including filings on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. The forward-looking financial information set forth in this press release reflects estimates based on information available at this time. These amounts could differ from actual reported amounts to be included in the company’s future earnings releases and public filings. While the company may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if an estimate changes.
