BOULDER, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Zayo Group Holdings, Inc. (“Zayo”, “ZGH” or “the Company”) (ZAYO), a leading provider of bandwidth infrastructure and network-neutral colocation and connectivity services, announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2015.
Third fiscal quarter revenue of $340.7 million grew 21% over the previous quarter on an annualized basis. Adjusted EBITDA of $199.0 million increased 20% over the previous quarter on an annualized basis. Operating income for the quarter decreased $40.4 million from the previous quarter, and net income decreased by $57.5 million from the previous quarter. The primary driver of the decrease in operating income was a $46.7 million increase to stock based compensation expense. Also contributing to the decrease in operating and net income during the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the previous quarter was in increase to loss on extinguishment of debt of $24.0 million. Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth was also negatively impacted by the strengthening of the US Dollar over the British Pound and Euro.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, capital expenditures were $130.1 million and the Company added 662 route miles and 767 buildings to the network. The Company had $273.7 million of cash and $240.8 million available under its revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2015.
Recent Developments
Acquisitions closed during quarter ended March 31, 2015
IdeaTek Systems, Inc. (“IdeaTek”)
Effective January 1, 2015, the Company acquired all of the equity interest in IdeaTek. The purchase price, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, was $53.6 million and was paid with cash on hand. The IdeaTek acquisition added 1,800 route miles to the Company’s network in Kansas, and includes a dense metro footprint in Wichita, Kansas. The network spans across Kansas and connects to approximately 600 cellular towers and over 100 additional buildings. The results of the acquired IdeaTek business are included in the Company’s operating results beginning January 1, 2015.
Latisys Holdings, LLC (“Latisys”)
On February 23, 2015, the Company acquired the operating units of Latisys, a colocation and infrastructure as a service (“Iaas”) provider for a price of $677.5 million, net of cash acquired. The Latisys acquisition was funded with the proceeds from the Company’s January Notes Offering (as defined below). The Latisys acquisition added colocation and IaaS services through eight datacenters across five markets in Northern Virginia, Chicago, Denver, Orange County and London. The acquired datacenters currently total over 185,000 square feet of billable space and 33 megawatts of critical power. The results of the acquired Latisys business are included in the Company’s operating results beginning February 23, 2015.
Follow-on equity offering
In March 2015, the Company completed a follow-on equity offering selling 4,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $27.35 per share for $109.5 million in gross proceeds.
Senior Unsecured Note Offering and Early Redemption of Senior Notes
On January 23, 2015, the Company completed a private offering (the “January Notes Offering”) of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due in 2023. On March 9, 2015, the Company completed a $730.0 million aggregate principal add on to the January Notes Offering at a premium of 1% (the “March Notes Offering”, and together with the January Notes Offering, the “2023 Notes”) resulting in aggregate proceeds for the 2023 Notes of $1,437.3 million. The 2023 Notes bear interest at the rate of 6.00% per year, which is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2015. The 2023 Notes will mature on April 1, 2023. The net proceeds from the January Notes Offering were used to fund the purchase price of the Latisys acquisition. The net proceeds from the March Notes Offering were used to redeem the Company’s remaining $675.0 million 8.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “Second Note Redemption”) at a price of 105.75%. Excess net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of indebtedness, acquisitions, working capital and capital expenditures.
As part of the Second Note Redemption, we paid an early redemption call premium of $38.8 million. The call premium has been recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015. In connection with the Second Note Redemption, net unamortized debt issuance costs of $16.1 million were also recorded as part of the loss on extinguishment of debt during the nine months ended March 31, 2015.
Amended Credit Agreement
On April 17, the Company extended the term and increased the size of its revolving credit facility from $250 million to $450 million. On May 6, 2015, the Company entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Restatement Agreement”). Per the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the maturity date of all of the Company’s outstanding term loans under its term loan credit facility was extended to May 6, 2021. The interest rate margins applicable to such terms loans was decreased by 25 basis points to LIBOR plus 2.75 percent with a minimum LIBOR of 1.0 percent. In addition, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement modified certain terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, including removing the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant, increasing certain lien and debt baskets and removing certain covenants related to collateral.
Senior Notes Due 2025
On May 6, 2015, the Company closed a private offering (the “May 2015 Notes Offering”) of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”). The net proceeds from the May 2015 Notes Offering were used to repay approximately $344.5 million of the Company’s borrowings under its term loan facility. Any excess net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of other indebtedness, acquisitions, working capital and capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides financial measures that are not defined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, unlevered free cash flow, adjusted unlevered free cash flow, and levered free cash flow.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings/(loss) from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) adjusted to exclude acquisition or disposal-related transaction costs, losses on extinguishment of debt, stock-based compensation, unrealized foreign currency gains/ (losses) on intercompany loans, and non-cash income/(loss) on equity and cost method investments. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Unlevered free cash flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus purchases of property and equipment, net of stimulus grants. Levered free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow minus purchases of property and equipment, net of stimulus grants. These measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, net cash flows provided by operating activities, total net cash flows or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to net cash flows from operating activities or total net cash flows as measures of our liquidity.
We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance and liquidity, and we use levered free cash flow as a measure to evaluate cash generated through normal operating activities. In addition to Adjusted EBITDA, management uses unlevered free cash flow, which measures the ability of Adjusted EBITDA to cover capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance rather than cash flow measure. Correlating our capital expenditures to our Adjusted EBITDA does not imply that we will be able to fund such capital expenditures solely with cash from operations. In addition to these measures, we use levered free cash flow as a measure to evaluate cash generated through normal operating activities. These metrics are among the primary measures used by management for planning and forecasting future periods. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view results in a manner similar to the method used by management and make it easier to compare our results with the results of other companies that have different financing and capital structures. We believe that the presentation of levered free cash flow is relevant and useful to investors because it provides a measure of cash available to pay the principal on our debt and pursue acquisitions of businesses or other strategic investments or uses of capital.
We also monitor Adjusted EBITDA because our subsidiaries have debt covenants that restrict their borrowing capacity that are based on a leverage ratio, which utilizes a modified EBITDA, as defined in our credit agreement and the indentures governing our notes. The modified EBITDA is consistent with our definition of Adjusted EBITDA; however, it includes the pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of and expected cost synergies from the companies acquired by us during the quarter for which the debt compliance certification is due. Adjusted EBITDA results, along with the quantitative and qualitative information, are also utilized by management and our Compensation Committee, as an input for determining incentive payments to employees.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results of operations and operating cash flows as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA:
- does not reflect capital expenditures, or future requirements for capital and major maintenance expenditures or contractual commitments;
- does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service the interest payments, on our debt; and
- does not reflect cash required to pay income taxes.
Unlevered free cash flow and adjusted unlevered free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, levered free cash flow:
- does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service the interest payments, on our debt; and
- does not reflect cash required to pay income taxes.
Levered free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, levered free cash flow:
- does not reflect principal payments on debt;
- does not reflect principal payments on capital lease obligations;
- does not reflect dividend payments, if any; and
- does not reflect the cost of acquisitions.
Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, unlevered free cash flow, adjusted unlevered free cash flow, and levered free cash flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies because all companies do not calculate these measures in the same fashion.
Because we have acquired numerous entities since our inception and incurred transaction costs in connection with each acquisition, borrowed money in order to finance our operations and acquisitions, and used capital and intangible assets in our business, and because the payment of income taxes is necessary if we generate taxable income after the utilization of our net operating loss carry forwards, any measure that excludes these items has material limitations. As a result of these limitations, these measures should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of our liquidity. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income/(loss) and for a quantitative reconciliation of unlevered free cash flow and levered free cash flow to net cash flows provided by operating activities.
Annualized revenue and annualized Adjusted EBITDA are derived by multiplying the total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, for the most recent quarterly period by four. Our computations of annualized revenue and annualized Adjusted EBITDA may not be representative of our actual annual results.
Measures referred to as being calculated on a constant currency basis are intended to present the relevant information assuming a constant exchange rate between the two periods being compared. Such metrics are calculated by applying the currency exchange rates used in the preparation of the prior period financial results to the subsequent period results.
Tables reconciling non-GAAP measures are included in the Historical Financial Data & Reconciliations section of this presentation. A glossary of terms used throughout is available under the investor section of the Company’s website at http://www.zayo.com/investors.
