Exhibit 99.1

LIQUIDITY SERVICES ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

Bethesda, MD - February 2, 2023 - Liquidity Services (NASDAQ:LQDT; www.liquidityservices.com), a leading global commerce company powering the circular economy, today announced the following financial results as of the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the applicable prior year periods:

 

 

"Our solid financial results for the quarter reflect the resilience of our business when challenged with macroeconomic headwinds, including the volatility in the used vehicle market and cautious consumer and business behavior. Notwithstanding the slower growth economic environment, our strategic priority remains investing in market share expansion, diversification and longer-term growth. With our strong business pipeline, trusted marketplace solutions and financial strength, we are well positioned to gain additional market share across our segments and create long-term value for our shareholders," said Bill Angrick, Liquidity Services CEO.

 

First Quarter Financial Highlights

 

GMV for the first fiscal quarter of 2023 was $270.8 million, a 4% increase from $260.2 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2022.

 

Revenue for the first fiscal quarter of 2023 was $72.3 million, an 8% increase from $66.7 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2022.

 

GAAP Net Income was $4.0 million, or $0.12 per share, for the fiscal first quarter of 2023, an increase from $3.6 million, or $0.10 per share, for the same quarter last year.

 

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income for the fiscal first quarter of 2023 was $6.4 million, or $0.19 per share, an increase from $6.2 million, or $0.18 per share last year.

 

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal first quarter of 2023 was $9.8 million, a $0.4 million increase from $9.4 million in the fiscal first quarter of 2022, reflecting GMV and revenue results, partially offset by increased year over year operations, sales, and technology expenses to support market share expansion, diversification and longer-term growth.

 

1 Includes $76.2 million of Cash and cash equivalents and $3.7 million of Short-term investments.

Business Outlook

The uncertain economic climate and global supply chain disruptions can affect the volume, timing and type of assets and inventory available for sale in any period. Notwithstanding such volatility, our expertise in diverse sectors, strong buyer base across numerous asset categories, and global reach are continuing to provide advantages as our clients navigate the current economic environment.

Our fiscal second quarter 2023 guidance range for GMV is consistent with the same period last year and reflects the headwinds being experienced currently across the global economy. As our business is affected by the macro-supply and pricing of vehicles and macro-conditions for real estate, we would expect to see stronger growth as these headwinds subside. The seasonality effect for our RSCG segment is expected this coming quarter, beginning with the uptick in the post-holiday return season. We expect higher volumes of retail returns with a higher mix of lower value products in the short-term, consistent with consumer sentiment in response to inflation and macro-economic uncertainty. Our current GMV mix expectations are reflected in our fiscal second quarter outlook for a slightly lower total of our segments' direct profits as a percent of total revenue in the short-term, contributing to our overall profit guidance range for this upcoming fiscal second quarter. We currently anticipate our consolidated revenue as a percent of GMV in the mid to high twenty percent range in the short-term reflecting our mix of business and products sold. Although the macro-economic headwinds remain, our current focus is market share expansion to fuel stronger, longer-term growth through continued investment in sales, marketing, operations and technology initiatives.

For Q2-FY23 our guidance is as follows:

GMV - We expect GMV to range from $260 million to $285 million.

GAAP Net Income - We expect GAAP Net Income to range from $1.0 million to $3.5 million.

GAAP Diluted EPS - We expect GAAP Diluted EPS to range from $0.03 to $0.10.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA -We expect Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to range from $6.5 million to $9.0 million.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS - We expect Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS to range from $0.09 to $0.16.

Our Business Outlook includes forward-looking statements which reflect these trends and assumptions for Q2-FY23 as compared to the prior year's period:

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

 

Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to net income plus interest and other income, net; provision for income taxes; and depreciation and amortization. Our definition of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA differs from Non-GAAP EBITDA because we further adjust Non-GAAP EBITDA for stock compensation expense, acquisition costs such as transaction expenses and changes in earn-out estimates, business realignment expenses, and goodwill, long-lived and other non-current asset impairment. A reconciliation of Net Income to Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

 

	Three Months Ended December 31,
	2022				2021
Net income	$	3,967			$	3,602
Interest and other income, net1		(303	)			(33	)
Provision for income taxes		1,149				1,012
Depreciation and amortization		2,764				2,302
Non-GAAP EBITDA	$	7,577			$	6,883
Stock compensation expense		2,081				2,280
Acquisition costs and impairment of long-lived and other non-current assets2		184				211
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA	$	9,842			$	9,374

 

1 Interest and other income, net, per the Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding the non-service components of net periodic pension (benefit).

2 Acquisition costs and impairment of long-lived and other non-current assets are included in Other operating expenses (income), net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to Net Income plus stock compensation expense, acquisition related costs such as transaction expenses and changes in earn-out estimates, amortization of intangible assets, business realignment expenses, goodwill, long-lived and other non-current asset impairments, and the estimated impact of income taxes on these non-GAAP adjustments as well as non-recurring tax adjustments. Non-GAAP Adjusted Basic and Diluted Income Per Share are determined using Adjusted Net Income. For Q1-FY23 the tax rate used to estimate the impact of income taxes on the non-GAAP adjustments was 25% compared to 21% used for the Q1-FY22 results. These tax rates exclude the impacts of the charge to our U.S. valuation allowance and the fair value adjustments to earn-out liabilities. A reconciliation of Net Income to Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and Non-GAAP Adjusted Basic and Diluted Income Per Share is as follows:

 

	Three Months Ended December 31,
	2022				2021
Net income	$	3,967			$	3,602
Stock compensation expense		2,081				2,280
Intangible asset amortization		982				767
Acquisition costs and impairment of long-lived and other non-current assets*		184				211
Income tax impact on the adjustment items		(805	)			(694	)
Non-GAAP Adjusted net income	$	6,409			$	6,166
Non-GAAP Adjusted basic earnings per common share		0.20				0.19
Non-GAAP Adjusted diluted earnings per common share		0.19				0.18
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		31,815,160				32,971,709
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		32,937,600				34,868,869

 

*Acquisition related costs and impairment of long-lived and other non-current assets, which are excluded from Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, are included in Other operating expenses (income), net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Conference Call Details

The Company will host a conference call to discuss this quarter's results at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time today. Investors and other interested parties may access the teleconference by registering here to receive the dial-in number and unique conference pin. A live web cast of the conference call will be provided on the Company's investor relations website at http://investors.liquidityservices.com. An archive of the web cast will be available on the Company's website until February 2, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. The replay will be available starting at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the day of the call.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and prospects for the future. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: (a) as measurements of operating performance because they assist us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as they do not reflect the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations; (b) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget; (c) to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; (d) to evaluate the effectiveness of our operational strategies; and (e) to evaluate our capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand our business. Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share is the result of our Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and diluted shares outstanding.

We prepare Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA by eliminating from Non-GAAP EBITDA the impact of items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. As an analytical tool, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is subject to all of the limitations applicable to Non-GAAP EBITDA. Our presentation of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an implication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our core operating measures. In addition, because we have historically reported certain non-GAAP measures to investors, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in our financial reporting. These measures should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. A reconciliation of all historical non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, may be found in the financial tables included in this press release.

We do not quantitatively reconcile our guidance ranges for our non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP measures in the Business Outlook section of this press release. The guidance ranges for our GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures reflect our assessment of potential sources of variability in our financial results and are informed by our evaluation of multiple scenarios, many of which have interactive effects across several financial statement line items. Providing guidance for individual reconciling items between our non-GAAP financial measures and the comparable GAAP measures would imply a degree of precision and certainty in those reconciling items that is not a consistent reflection of our scenario-based process to prepare our guidance ranges. To the extent that a material change affecting the individual reconciling items between the Company’s forward-looking non-GAAP and comparable GAAP financial measures is anticipated, the Company has provided qualitative commentary in the Business Outlook section of this press release for your consideration. However, as the impact of such factors cannot be predicted with a reasonable degree of certainty or precision, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

Supplemental Operating Data

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain supplemental operating data as a measure of certain components of operating performance. We review GMV because it provides a measure of the volume of goods being sold in our marketplaces and thus the activity of those marketplaces. GMV and our other supplemental operating data, including registered buyers, auction participants and completed transactions, also provide a means to evaluate the effectiveness of investments that we have made and continue to make in the areas of seller and buyer support, value-added services, product development, sales and marketing and operations. Therefore, we believe this supplemental operating data provides useful information to both management and investors. In addition, because we have historically reported certain supplemental operating data to investors, we believe the inclusion of this supplemental operating data provides consistency in our financial reporting. This data should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
