  • Bought back 2.9 million shares of common stock at an average price of $3.60 per share during 2022
  • Ended the quarter with $239.1 million in cash and full availability of its $100.4 million revolving credit facility
  • For the full year 2023, the Company expects to generate in excess of $400 million of revenue and $100 million of Adjusted EBITDA

Operational Highlights

  • Emerald set up for future growth as post-COVID recovery cycle takes hold
  • Emerald successfully staged 124 in-person trade shows, conferences and other events in FY 2022 as the Company builds back from the COVID-19 pandemic and customers eagerly returned to in-person events
  • Since the beginning of FY 2022, Emerald completed three strategic acquisitions, including Advertising Week, Bulletin, and Lodestone, bringing the total number of acquisitions completed over the last two years to eight
  • Xcelerator unit launched four new brands in 2022 in high-growth sectors, including food, decentralized finance, psychedelics and mental health, helping to drive incremental organic growth

Hervé Sedky, Emerald’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We witnessed a strong recovery in the events industry in 2022 as COVID waned and exhibitors and attendees were eager to get back to in-person events. Our unique business model offers multiple revenue drivers including organic growth, our Xcelerator program for new event launches, and our acquisitions strategy, all focused on making Emerald a stronger leader in the industry. As a leading consolidator of live events, we’ve acquired eight businesses over the last two years that build on our existing capabilities across our events, content, and ecommerce platforms. We also successfully launched four new brands in high-growth sectors through our Xcelerator program in 2022, providing us with an opportunity to apply Emerald’s flywheel and add significant scale to the business. Our proprietary data, content business and e-commerce abilities are also enabling us to meet our customers’ needs at every turn while growing our audiences and driving higher revenue per customer. As we move into 2023, we are focused on our three strategic priorities of customer centricity, 365-day engagement, and portfolio optimization, and are confident in the future of the industry and our place as a leading player.”

David Doft, Emerald’s Chief Financial Officer, added, “We are very pleased with our performance in 2022, delivering over $325 million of revenue and almost $57 million of Adjusted EBITDA, both exceeding our previously stated guidance. This past year, we continued to invest in our business to drive growth both organically and through strategic acquisitions. Our free cash flow in the fourth quarter 2022 was impacted by timing shifts in working capital, as event sign ups and contractual deposit due dates have fluctuated as customer behavior returns to normal. We expect to have meaningful cash leverage in our business model as increases in free cash flow align closely with Adjusted EBITDA growth. Looking ahead, interest in event participation has continued on a strong and positive trajectory, giving us confidence in the year ahead. For the full year 2023, we project that we will generate in excess of $400 million of revenue and $100 million of Adjusted EBITDA.”

  • Fourth quarter 2022 revenues were $93.6 million, an increase of $52.5 million or 127.7% versus the fourth quarter 2021, driven by revenue from the MJBiz and Advertising Week acquisitions, each of which staged its largest event in the fourth quarter 2022. Full year 2022 revenues were $325.9 million, an increase of $180.4 million or 124.0% versus the full year 2021, due to an increase in revenue related to live events that staged in 2022, but had been canceled in the prior year due to COVID-19.
  • Fourth quarter 2022 Organic Revenues were $52.9 million, an increase of $11.3 million or 27.2% versus the fourth quarter 2021, due primarily to a $10.4 million increase in revenues from events that traded in both periods, $1.9 million from newly launched events and $1.4 million from increased subscription software revenues partially offset by softness in other marketing services. Full year 2022 Organic Revenues were $205.1 million, an increase of $59.6 million or 41.0% versus the full year 2021, due primarily to a $51.8 million increase in revenues from several events that staged in both 2022 and 2021, $6.5 million from newly launched events and $4.2 million from increased subscription software revenues partially offset by softness in other marketing services.
  • Fourth quarter 2022 net income was $22.4 million, compared to a net loss of $8.9 million for the fourth quarter 2021. Full year 2022 net income was $130.8 million, compared to a net loss of $79.7 million for the full year 2021.
  • Fourth quarter 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $25.1 million, compared to $51.0 million for the fourth quarter 2021. Excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, fourth quarter 2022 Adjusted EBITDA would have been $25.1 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA ex-insurance of negative $8.9 million for the fourth quarter 2021. Full year 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $239.6 million, compared to $44.1 million for the full year 2021. Excluding the event cancellation insurance proceeds, Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2022 would have been $56.8 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA ex-insurance of negative $33.3 million for the full year 2021.

For a discussion of the Company’s presentation of Organic revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures, see below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Information.” Refer to Schedule 1 for a reconciliation of Organic revenues to revenues (discussed in the first paragraph of this section), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and refer to Schedule 3 for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) (discussed in the second paragraph of this section), the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Cash Flow

  • Fourth quarter 2022 net cash used in operating activities was $23.6 million, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $53.7 million in the fourth quarter 2021. Full year 2022 net cash provided by operating activities was $175.1 million, compared to $90.0 million in the full year 2021.
  • Fourth quarter 2022 capital expenditures were $2.8 million, compared to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter 2021. Full year 2022 capital expenditures were $10.3 million, compared to $6.6 million in the full year 2021.
  • Fourth quarter 2022 Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net, which the Company defines as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, event cancellation insurance proceeds and taxes paid on event cancellation insurance proceeds, was negative $1.4 million, compared to negative $8.7 million in the fourth quarter 2021. The calculation of fourth quarter 2022 Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net, includes transaction costs of $0.3 million, restructuring-related transition costs of $1.2 million, and non-recurring legal and consulting fees of $0.6 million. The calculation of fourth quarter Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net, for the prior year includes transaction costs of $1.1 million, restructuring-related transition costs of $1.5 million, and non-recurring legal and consulting fees of $0.4 million. The total of these items is $2.1 million and $3.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
  • Full year 2022 Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net, was $6.9 million, compared to $6.0 million in the full year 2021. The calculation of 2022 Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net, includes insurance settlement expenses of $7.9 million, contingent consideration paid in excess of the original estimate of $2.1 million, transaction costs of $3.6 million, restructuring-related transition costs of $3.1 million, and non-recurring legal and consulting fees of $1.7 million. The calculation of Free Cash Flow for the prior year includes transaction costs of $1.4 million, restructuring-related transition costs of $1.9 million, and non-recurring legal and consulting fees of $2.7 million. The total of these items is $18.4 million and $6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
  • Emerald voluntarily prepaid $100.0 million of outstanding Term Loans during the fourth quarter 2022. After giving effect to the prepayment, the Company had $415.3 million in principal amount of Term Loans outstanding. Additionally, during the fourth quarter 2022, the Company made estimated tax payments of $25.0 million related to the receipt of event cancellation insurance claim and insurance litigation settlement proceeds during the first nine-months of 2022. Given the cash outflow for the voluntary Term Loan prepayment and estimated tax payments, Emerald ended the fourth quarter 2022 with $239.1 million of cash as compared to the third quarter 2022 ending cash balance of $366.1 million.

For a review of the Company’s presentation of Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, see below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Information.” Refer to Schedule 4 for a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to net cash provided by operating activities (discussed in the first paragraph of this section), the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release presents certain “non-GAAP” financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the schedules attached hereto.

Organic Revenue

We define “Organic revenue growth” and “Organic revenue decline” as the growth or decline, respectively, in our revenue from one period to the next, adjusted for the revenue impact of: (i) acquisitions and dispositions, (ii) discontinued events, (iii) material show scheduling adjustments and (iv) event cancellations for which the Company has received, or expects to receive, claim proceeds from its event cancellation insurance policy. We disclose changes in Organic revenue because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing Emerald’s operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe provide a fair comparison of the trends underlying our existing event portfolio given changes in timing or strategy. Management and Emerald’s board of directors evaluate changes in Organic revenue to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance and understand underlying revenue trends of our events.

Adjusted EBITDA

We use Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing Emerald’s operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management and Emerald’s board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance and believe it is helpful in highlighting trends because it excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of management, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or to cash flows from operations as a liquidity measure.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax benefit, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation, (v) deferred revenue adjustment, (vi) goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges, (vii) material show scheduling adjustments, where applicable, and (viii) other items that management believes are not part of our core operations.

We have also presented Adjusted EBITDA excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds in order to illustrate the amount of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations.

Note: Schedule 3 provides reconciliations for 2022 and 2021 Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), however, it is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to estimate the impacts of show scheduling adjustments, acquisitions and the amount and timing of receipt of event cancellation insurance proceeds and certain other special items that may occur in 2023 as these items are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be included in a reconciliation of 2023 projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) without unreasonable efforts and has not provided reconciliations for these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures.

Free Cash Flow

We present Free Cash Flow because we believe it is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated from our core operations that, after capital expenditures, can be used to maintain and grow our business, for the repayment of indebtedness, payment of dividends and to fund strategic opportunities. Free Cash Flow is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of liquidity and is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP. Free Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities or other measures determined in accordance with GAAP.

We have also presented Free Cash Flow excluding event cancellation insurance proceeds, net in order to illustrate the amount of Free Cash Flow from continuing operations.

Other companies may compute these measures differently. No non-GAAP metric should be considered as an alternative to any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains and our earnings call will contain certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, our expectations arising from the severe impact of COVID-19 and related variants on our business; our ability to continue staging live events and return our business to pre-COVID levels; our guidance with respect to estimated revenues and Adjusted EBITDA; our ability to recover insurance proceeds under current policies and the timing of any such recoveries; the timing for rescheduled trade show events; and our ability to successfully identify and acquire acquisition targets and integrate and grow acquired businesses. These statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of the Company’s control that may cause its business, industry, strategy, financing activities or actual results to differ materially. See “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
