Cesar Gon, founder and CEO of CI&T, commented, "As we complete one year of our debut in the capital markets, I am excited to share another set of high growth with sound profitability results. With the cash proceeds of the IPO, we have expanded our operations globally through acquisitions, opening new markets and verticals, and extending our global talent base. With these moves, we amplified our footprint for robust organic growth in our four operating regions: North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia Pacific."

"A nontrivial macro environment marked these twelve months. Nevertheless, Digital transformation is a secular trend and remains a priority in the corporate world. And CI&T positioning and value proposition focused on speed and digital efficiency resonates extremely well with large and innovative companies."

Comments on the 3Q22 financial performance

In 3Q22, the net revenue was R$559.0 million, an increase of 48.7% compared to 3Q21, or a 51.3% net revenue growth at constant currency. The acquisitions of Somo, Box 1824, and Transpire concluded in 2022 contributed to 14 percentage points of revenue growth in the quarter compared to 3Q21.

We added 20 new clients to our portfolio in 3Q22 (with annual revenue above R$1.0 million in the last twelve months), increasing our client base from 127 in 2Q22 to 147 in 3Q22. We maintained a solid year-over-year growth across all regions and all industry verticals we operate.

The cost of services provided in 3Q22 reached R$363.6 million, an increase of 47.3% compared to 3Q21, and the gross profit was R$195.4 million. Excluding costs with depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, the adjusted gross profit in 3Q22 was R$206.5 million, 47.9% higher than in 3Q21. The adjusted gross profit margin was 36.9%, a slight decrease compared to 37.1% in 3Q21, mainly due to lower margins from recently acquired companies.

In 3Q22, selling, general and administrative (SG&A), and other operating expenses were R$130.8 million, an increase of 45.3% compared to 3Q21, mainly due to (i) acquisition-related expenses, including bonus retention, consulting expenses, and amortization of intangible assets from acquired companies; and (ii) the strengthening of our back-office teams in connection with our IPO.

In 3Q22, the Adjusted EBITDA was R$107.4 million, an increase of 34.1% compared to 3Q21. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.2% in the quarter, a reduction of 2.1 percentage points compared to 3Q21, mainly due to the increase in SG&A expenses. Sequentially, the Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 19.2% in 3Q22 from 19.1% in 2Q22 and 17.5% in 1Q22, as a result of gradual price readjustments on our contracts, a seasonal effect.

In 3Q22, net financial expenses were R$7.4 million, a decrease of 66.8% compared to 3Q21, as a result of positive foreign exchange variations in 3Q22, partially compensated by higher interest rates on loans.

In 3Q22, depreciation and amortization expenses totaled R$23.6 million, an increase of 67.3% or R$9.5 million compared to 3Q21, due to the amortization of R$10.3 million from intangible assets from acquired companies.

In 3Q22, income tax expense was R$16.5 million, a reduction of 12.3% compared to 3Q21. In the 9M22, income tax expense was R$49.8 million, a reduction of 13.3% year over year, while the income tax paid (cash effect) was R$33.5 million in the period, equivalent to a cash tax rate of 23%.

In 3Q22, the net profit was R$40.6 million, compared to a net loss of R$2.2 million in 3Q21. Adjusted net profit was R$69.5 million, 156.7% higher than 3Q21, equivalent to an adjusted net profit margin of 12.4%. The increase in the adjusted net profit margin was mainly due to a reduction in financial expenses, income tax expenses, and depreciation of property, plant, and equipment.

Business Outlook

We expect our net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 to be at least R$605 million compared to a net revenue of R$457 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, a 41% growth at constant currency or a 32% growth on a reported basis, which includes a negative foreign currency translation impact of approximately nine percentage points.

For the full year of 2022, we are increasing our outlook and expect a net revenue growth at constant currency of at least 58% year-over-year and net revenue growth on a reported basis of at least 51%, which includes a negative foreign currency translation impact of approximately seven percentage points.

In addition, we estimate our adjusted EBITDA margin to be at least 19% for the full year of 2022, assuming an average exchange rate of 5.10 Brazilian Reais to the U.S. dollar for the full year.

These expectations are forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. See "Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements" below.

Basis of accounting and functional currency

CI&T maintains its books and records in Brazilian reais, the presentation currency for its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the functional currency of our operations in Brazil. CI&T prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IASB, and International Financial Reporting Standard No 34—Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”).

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We regularly monitor certain financial and operating metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. These non-IFRS financial measures include Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Profit, Adjusted Net Profit Margin, Net Revenue at Constant Currency, and Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency, and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but not as substitutes for IFRS results. In addition, our calculation of these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from those used by other companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. These non-IFRS financial measures are provided as additional information to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our operations’ historical and current financial performance.

CI&T is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Non-IFRS Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable IFRS measure because it is unable to reasonably predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable efforts. These items include, but are not limited to, stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related expenses, the tax effect of non-IFRS adjustments, and other items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on IFRS reported results for the guidance period.

We calculate Net Revenue at Constant Currency and Net Revenue Growth at Constant Currency by translating Net revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into Brazilian reais using the comparable foreign currency exchange average rates from the prior period to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Reported Net Revenue in 2021 considers the FX rate at the end of each month, while Net Revenue at Constant Currency considers the average FX rate for the period.

In calculating Adjusted Gross Profit, we exclude cost components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments applied were: (i) depreciation and amortization related to costs of services provided; and (ii) stock-based compensation expenses.

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments were: (i) stock-based compensation expenses; (ii) consulting expenses related to the initial public offering and corporate reorganization; (iii) government grants related to tax reimbursement in the Chinese subsidiary; (iv) non-cash expenses related to the write-off due to inventory of property, plant, and equipment, tax write-off, and the impairment related to the discontinuation of certain investments made by Dextra on intangible assets related to digital platforms; and (v) acquisition-related expenses, including fair value adjustment on accounts payable for business combination, consulting expenses and retention bonuses.

In calculating Adjusted Net Profit, we exclude cost components unrelated to the direct management of our services. For the periods herein, the adjustments applied were: (i) consulting expenses related to the initial public offering and corporate reorganization, (ii) non-cash expenses related to the write-off due to the inventory of property, plant, and equipment, tax write-off, and the impairment related to the discontinuation of certain investments made by Dextra on intangible assets related to digital platforms; and (iii) acquisition-related expenses, including amortization of intangible assets from acquired companies, fair value adjustment on account payables for business combination, consulting expenses and retention bonuses.
