Management Commentary

"Today we reported strong results for 2022, and significant advancements in meeting our strategic goals," said Suri Suriyakumar, CEO of ARC Document Solutions. "Our annual sales grew, and we improved nearly all of our key operating metrics. Best of all, we will continue growing in 2023."

President and Chief Operating Officer Dilo Wijesuriya said, "Our market and product diversification strategy continued to help us deliver solid sales growth, margin expansion, and profitability during 2022. For 2023 we will continue to focus on delivering exceptional customer value and selling into more industry verticals. Everything we do gets better when we diversify our market."

"Throughout 2022 we leveraged our overhead costs to achieve a 140-point gross margin increase, and EPS grew nearly 25% on sales growth of five percent," said Jorge Avalos, CFO of ARC. "Cash flow from operations grew by $1.5 million year-over-year, and we reduced our debt, net of cash, by $8.4 million over 2021. Shareholder returns reached an all-time high as we paid more than $8 million dollars in dividends at a 6 percent-plus yield and purchased more than $2 million dollars of our own shares. In 2023, we expect to continue growing the top line and the bottom line, and to return excellent shareholder returns."

Fourth Quarter Overview

Demand for digital printing was high across our customer base during the early part of the fourth quarter but softened as expected over the year-end holidays. Onsite print volumes declined slightly during the quarter, but indications for bringing more employees back into offices grew, creating the potential for renewed interest. Design and construction activity remained robust as we sold more non-traditional services to customers who, historically, only engaged us for construction drawing reproductions and document management. Demand for scanning remained steady, as did domestic sales of equipment and supplies sales, but poor performance in in our Chinese joint venture suppressed overall sales. Inflation in the U.S., Canada and abroad continued to force labor and other SG&A costs upward, but because increases in materials prices are typically passed on to our customers, their effect was muted on the business. We believe most supply chain disruptions are behind us.

2022 Fourth Quarter Supplemental Information & 2023 Expectations:

  • Cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheet in the fourth quarter 2022 were $52.6 million.
  • ARC's next quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 will be paid on February 28, 2023 with a record date of January 31, 2023.
  • Days sales outstanding were 51 days as of fourth quarter 2022.
  • The number of MPS locations at the end of the fourth quarter was approximately 10,720.
  • With sales growth moderating from 2022 levels, management expects an annual EPS growth percentage in the double-digit range
  • Quarterly EBITDA average in 2023 is expected to remain $10 million.
  • Finance lease payments in 2023 are projected to be approximately $12.5 million.
  • Anticipated 2023 shareholder returns will be in the range of $10 million.

Net Revenue

Total Net Revenue
$ 286.0 $ 68.8 $ 73.1 $ 74.6 $ 69.5 $ 272.2 $ 69.2

In the fourth quarter 2022, net revenue decreased 0.6%, or $0.4 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, largely due to weak sales from our Chinese joint venture. Net revenue for full-year 2022 increased 5.1% or $13.8 million, year-over-year compared to the full year of 2021, largely driven by our expansion of addressable markets and industries.

Revenue by Business Line

FYE 2022 4Q 2022 3Q 2022 2Q 2022 1Q 2022 FYE 2021 4Q 2021
Digital Printing
$ 174.8 $ 42.0 $ 44.7 $ 46.2 $ 41.9 $ 166.7 $ 41.3
MPS
$ 75.8 $ 18.5 $ 19.4 $ 19.2 $ 18.7 $ 72.4 $ 18.6

Equipment and Supplies
$ 18.1 $ 4.3 $ 4.3 $ 4.8 $ 4.7 $ 18.6 $ 5.3

For the fourth quarter 2022, Digital Printing sales increased 1.7% compared to prior year, and for the full-year 2022 increased 4.8% year-over-year. New sales for the quarter were driven by demand in the retail, office, education, and construction verticals as the economic constraints of the pandemic waned throughout the year.

For the fourth quarter 2022, Managed Print Services (MPS) sales decreased 0.7% compared to prior year, and sales for full-year 2022 increased 4.6% as compared to 2021. Growth in annual MPS sales reflects an increase of on-site printing volume as moderation of work-from-home directives encouraged more employees to return to offices during the period, as activity on construction job sites continued, and as we implemented price increases to offset the effects of inflation in our supply chain.

For the fourth quarter 2022, Scanning and Digital Imaging sales increased 0.3% compared to prior year, and sales for the full-year 2022 increased 20.1% year-over-year as compared to the full year of 2021. The increase in sales was primarily attributable to growing demand for paper-to-digital document conversions used in day-to-day business operations, and the creation of digital archives to replace long-term warehoused paper document storage.

For the fourth quarter 2022, Equipment and Supplies sales decreased 19.1% compared to prior year, and sales for the full-year 2022 declined 2.7% year-over-year as compared to the full year of 2021.The decrease was a result of reduced sales from our Chinese joint venture as the Chinese economy continues to be challenged.

Gross Profit

Gross Margin 33.6 % 33.6 % 33.9 % 34.2 % 32.3 % 32.2 % 32.2 %

Fourth quarter gross profit improved by $0.9 million over the same period in 2021 and increased by $8.3 million for the full-year 2022 as compared to 2021. The quarterly increase was driven by a reduction in depreciation expense, as well as our improved cost structure, while the full year benefited from higher sales.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the fourth quarter 2022 increased in absolute dollars year-over-year by $1.2 million or 6.7%, and for the full year 2022 increased $5.2 million or 7.2% compared to 2021. The increase is due to higher labor costs, as well as higher commissions, bonuses, and travel resulting from increased sales and profitability.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share

Year-over-year, net income attributable to ARC and earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased as a result of lower sales. Year-over-year, net income attributable to ARC and earnings per share for the full year of 2022 increased. Earnings growth for the full year 2022, was primarily driven by the increase in net sales and the decrease in depreciation expense, partially offset by the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses described above. As hybrid work schedules reduced office printing volumes, our need for printing equipment has significantly decreased and has thus reduced our depreciation expense.

The year-over-year increase in cash flows from operations during the fourth quarter of 2022 and for the full-year 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, was primarily due to an improvement in collections and an increase in net income.

Decreases in EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the full year 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, are largely attributable to higher labor and SG&A costs as noted above.

See Non-GAAP Financial Measures discussion below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and related ratios presented in this report are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.

EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP measure calculated by dividing EBITDA by net sales.

We have presented EBITDA and related ratios because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and liquidity. We believe investors may also find these measures meaningful, given how our management makes use of them. The following is a discussion of our use of these measures.

We use EBITDA to measure and compare the performance of our operating segments. Our operating segments' financial performance includes all of the operating activities except debt and taxation which are managed at the corporate level for U.S. operating segments. We use EBITDA to compare the performance of our operating segments and to measure performance for determining consolidated-level compensation. In addition, we use EBITDA to evaluate potential acquisitions and potential capital expenditures.

EBITDA and related ratios have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:

  • They do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures and contractual commitments;
  • They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • They do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
  • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
  • Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and related ratios should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in business growth or to reduce our indebtedness. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and related ratios only as supplements.

Our presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA is an attempt to provide meaningful comparisons to our historical performance for our existing and future investors. The unprecedented changes in our end markets over the past several years have required us to take measures that are unique in our history and specific to individual circumstances. Comparisons inclusive of these actions make normal financial and other performance patterns difficult to discern under a strict GAAP presentation. Each non-GAAP presentation, however, is explained in detail in the reconciliation tables above.

Specifically, we have presented adjusted net income attributable to ARC and adjusted earnings per share attributable to ARC shareholders for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 to reflect the exclusion of changes in the valuation allowances related to certain deferred tax assets and other discrete tax items. This presentation facilitates a meaningful comparison of our operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

We have presented adjusted EBITDA for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 to exclude stock-based compensation expense. The adjustment of EBITDA for this item is consistent with the definition of adjusted EBITDA in our credit agreement; therefore, we believe this information is useful to investors in assessing our financial performance.
