Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 7, 2020, Ebix entered into the Tenth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Regions Secured Credit Facility, dated August 5, 2014, among the Company, Regions Bank as Administrative and Collateral Agent (“Regions”) and certain other lenders party thereto (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in the description below but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Amendment.

The Amendment provides for, among other things, increased flexibility under financial maintenance covenants, which the Company sought in part due to the unforeseen negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Amendment contains, among others, the following material alterations to the Credit Agreement:

  The Maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio maintenance covenants are relaxed. The Maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is initially set at 5.35:1.00 for the second fiscal quarter of 2020. Thereafter, it expands to 5.50:1.00 through the first fiscal quarter of 2021 and then gradually steps down to 4.50:1.00 for the fourth quarter of 2021 and thereafter.

  For so long as the Consolidated Net Leverage is greater than 3.50:1.00, the Company must maintain minimum global unrestricted cash of at least $40 million.

  Until the Company reports earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, its pricing grid is set at LIBOR Margin of 300 bps with a Commitment Fee of 50 bps.

  For so long as Company’s Consolidated Net Leverage is greater than 3.25:1.00, the Company’s annual dividends are limited to $0.30 per share of common stock, not to exceed $13 million annually

  The Company is subject to various acquisitions related limitations as long as its Consolidated Net Leverage is greater than 3.25:1.00. Cash acquisitions are limited to $15 million through delivery of the September 30, 2020 compliance certificate, with increased limits thereafter.

  The Amendment introduces a 50% excess cash flow sweep beginning for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 for as long as consolidated total net leverage is greater than 3.25:1.00.

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 11, 2020, Ebix, Inc. issued an earnings press release announcing its results of operations and financial condition for the most recent fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. A copy of the related press release is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Ebix Announces First Quarter Fiscal Year 2020 Financial Results

JOHNS CREEK, GA – May 11, 2020 – Ebix, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBIX), today announced the following results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020:

 

   

Diluted EPS (GAAP) of $0.81 and Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.96

 

   

Operating cash flow of $29.6 million

 

   

Revenues of $137.9 million and constant currency revenues of $ 141.6 million

 

   

GAAP operating income of $34.3 million and Non-GAAP operating income of $39.9 million

Ebix will host a conference call to review its results today at 11:00 a.m. EDT (details below).

“We are pleased with these results in spite of the headwinds associated with the impact of COVID-19 on our worldwide businesses beginning March 2020. Despite the negative impacts from COVID-19, the Company is still reporting Q1 2020 GAAP EPS of $0.81, operating cash flows of $29.6 million and essentially flat revenues as compared to Q1 2019 on a constant currency basis. We believe that in times like this, our recurring revenue base, product diversity and customer stickiness strength gives us an edge over our competitors in the industries in which we operate.”

Ebix delivered the following results for the first quarter of 2020:

Revenue: Q1 2020 revenue declined 4% to $137.9 million compared to $142.9 million in Q1 2019 and decreased 6% over Q4 2019 revenue of $146.2 million, primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 on March revenues. Excluding revenues from the foreign exchange, travel and remittance businesses that were impacted the most in March by COVID-19, Q1 2020 revenues grew 15% as compared to Q1 2019.

On a constant currency basis, Ebix Q1 2020 revenue decreased 1% to $141.6 million compared to $142.9 million in Q1 2019. Exchanges, including the EbixCash and our worldwide insurance exchanges, continued to be Ebix’s largest channel, accounting for 88% of Q1 2020 revenues.

Operating Income and Operating Cash: GAAP Operating income for Q1 2020 declined 37% to $34.3 million as compared to $54.1 million in Q1 2019, due primarily to the impact of COVID-19 and the $15.4 million reduction of the acquisition accrual for ItzCash in Q1 2019. Non-GAAP operating income for Q1 2020 was $39.9 million.

Cash generated from operations increased $8.5 million, or 41%, in Q1 2020 to $29.6 million compared to $21.0 million in Q1 2019.

Earnings per Share: Q1 2020 GAAP diluted earnings per share decreased 4% to $0.81 from $0.84 in Q1 2019. Excluding the one-time, non-recurring items, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for Q1 2020 was $0.96

Net Income: Q1 2020 GAAP net income decreased 4% to $24.7 million compared to $25.7 million in Q1 2019. The Q1 2020 Non-GAAP net income was at $29.5 million after excluding certain non-recurring items.

Shares Outstanding and Repurchases: In Q1 2020, Ebix made no repurchases of its outstanding common stock. Ebix’s weighted average diluted shares outstanding increased to 30.7 million in Q1 2020 compared to 30.6 million in Q1 2019 and 30.6 million in Q4 2019.

Q2 2020 Diluted Share Count: As of today, Ebix expects its diluted share count for Q2 2020 to be approximately 30.8 million.

Dividend: Ebix paid its regular quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share in Q1 2020 for a total cost of $2.3 million.

Ebix Chairman, President and CEO Robin Raina said, “The impact of COVID-19 has been rather severe on our remittance, travel, forex and travel businesses. With severe lockdowns enacted in most countries across the world, our businesses are getting fully tested. I am pleased to report that we were able to not only keep our services operational worldwide on a 24 by 7 basis but also ensure that none of our clients were negatively impacted because of their relationship with Ebix. We are confident that we are well-geared to ensure continued positive cash flows throughout this crisis.”

Robin added, “We are pleased with the recent award of the Trimax Bus Exchange business to Ebix by the courts. This synergestic acquisition with expected operating margins of 30% or more will make us a leader in the bus Exchange business in India, and provide us another recurring revenue base that thrives on the technology backbone of Trimax across India.”

Steve Hamil, EVP and Global CFO said, “Ebix is pleased with the support of its syndicate of banks, as evidenced by the recently closed amendment to its senior secured corporate credit facilities. This amendment provides additional flexibility for the Company to operate through the current COVID-19 global pandemic. While we are dealing with an unprecedented level of uncertainty that has arisen from COVID-19, the Company believes that the operating cash flow capability of our business and the substantial cash and short term investments on hand provides us with the ability to operate through this crisis, based on the conditions we observe today. The Company has taken steps to preserve its liquidity through both temporary and permanent operational expense reductions. We will continue to monitor the impact of this global pandemic and will take further actions, if necessary, to ensure that Ebix is positioned to thrive when global economic conditions improve. While the longevity of the impacts from COVID-19 are not known with certainty, the Company continues to show its commitment to our shareholders by maintaining its current dividend policy.”

2020 Business Outlook: Given the ongoing market disruption and worldwide lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and related uncertainty on timing and extent of recovery, the Company is not providing fiscal 2020 revenue and earnings guidance at this time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Metrics

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP Earnings per share. Non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS from operations exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation,as well as other non-cash items and certain non-recurring expenses that are not associated with our ongoing operating business activities. Non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS from operations also exclude the effect of any restructuring, acquisition, integration & other expenses, legal expenses associated with such acquisitions or legal expenses associated with non-operating activities, any one-time tax benefits, and any foreign currency effects of intercompany activities that have no impact on our ongoing operating business.

Ebix believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Ebix’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures and other metrics to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics to investors.

 

3


Management of the Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Ebix urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including the financial tables at the end of this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
