- 27% Revenue growth year over year to $495.5 million
- 39% Adjusted EBITDA* growth year over year to $91.4 million
FAIRPORT, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– PAETEC Holding Corp. (NASDAQ GS: PAET) today announced first quarter 2011 operating results. “The integration of the 2010 acquisitions is progressing as evidenced by solid revenue growth and improved operating performance,” said Arunas A. Chesonis, chairman and CEO. “The combination of PAETEC’s deep product portfolio and the enhanced solutions acquired during 2010 showed tangible results during the first quarter.” Financial results for first quarter 2011 included the following:
- Revenue of $495.5 million;
- Adjusted EBITDA of $91.4 million;
- Net loss of $11.9 million;
- 33rd consecutive quarter of positive free cash flow,* which increased to $44.5 million for first quarter 2011;
- Net cash provided by operating activities of $60.7 million;
- A cash balance of $103.9 million at March 31, 2011.
* Neither adjusted EBITDA nor free cash flow is a measurement of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or “GAAP.” Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by PAETEC for the periods presented, represents net loss before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, stock-based compensation, acquisition, integration, and separation costs, and debt extinguishment and related costs. Free cash flow, as defined by PAETEC, consists of adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (purchases of property and equipment). See the accompanying tables for additional information as to PAETEC’s reasons for including these measures, for a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss, as net loss is calculated in accordance with GAAP, and for a quantitative reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, as net cash provided by operating activities is calculated in accordance with GAAP.
First Quarter 2011 Results Compared to First Quarter 2010
Revenue
- Total revenue of $495.5 million for first quarter 2011 increased 27.0% or $105.5 million over first quarter 2010 primarily due to a 21.4% growth in network services revenue, which resulted principally from the inclusion of a full quarter of revenue from Cavalier Telephone. PAETEC’s acquisition of Cavalier Telephone closed in December 2010.
- Core network services revenue for first quarter 2011 was $336.8 million, an increase of 19.0% or $53.7 million over first quarter 2010 primarily due to the inclusion of Cavalier Telephone for the full 2011 quarter. Additionally, core network services revenue for first quarter 2011 showed modest organic growth before giving effect to the contribution of Cavalier Telephone.
- Core carrier services revenue for first quarter 2011 was $59.2 million, an increase of 32.6% or $14.6 million over first quarter 2010 primarily due to the inclusion of Cavalier Telephone for the full 2011 quarter. Core carrier services revenue organic growth before giving effect to the contribution of Cavalier Telephone was positive for first quarter 2011.
- Integrated solutions revenue of $36.3 million increased 119.4% or $19.7 million over first quarter 2010 due to the inclusion of the results of U.S. Energy Partners and Quagga Corporation for the full 2011 quarter and the growth in our IP Simple product.
Adjusted EBITDA and Margins
Adjusted EBITDA for first quarter 2011 increased 39.4% or $25.8 million to $91.4 million over adjusted EBITDA of $65.5 million for first quarter 2010. Adjusted EBITDA margin, which represents adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue, improved 160 basis points to 18.4% from first quarter 2010. Operational expense synergies and improved network cost margins were the primary contributors to the improved adjusted EBITDA margin.
Cost of goods sold for first quarter 2011 increased 21.4% or $41.2 million. The increase in cost of goods sold for first quarter 2011 resulted from the Cavalier Telephone acquisition and the growth in the ISG product lines. Despite higher overall cost of goods sold, gross margin improved substantially by 220 basis points to 52.8% for first quarter 2011 from 50.6% for first quarter 2010. The improvement was driven by a broad array of operational enhancements including the contribution of higher margin Cavalier Telephone revenues, improved local network cost resulting from earlier initiatives to transition Special Access (“SPA”) circuits to Unbundled Network Elements (“UNE”), and stronger integrated equipment and network sales driven by the IP Simple Product, which leverages PAETEC’s proprietary Allworx platform.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for first quarter 2011 were $172.7 million, including stock-based compensation of $2.4 million, which represented an increase of $38.4 million over first quarter 2010 primarily due to the Cavalier Telephone acquisition. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expenses were 34.9% for first quarter 2011 compared to 34.4% for first quarter 2010.
Net Loss
Net loss for first quarter 2011 was $11.9 million compared to first quarter 2010 net loss of $9.5 million. The increase in net loss was primarily due to a 34.2% or $16.1 million increase in non-cash depreciation and amortization expense. Increased depreciation and amortization expense was driven by the acquired Cavalier Telephone assets, which included substantial fiber-optic infrastructure.
Sequential Results – First Quarter 2011 Compared to Fourth Quarter 2010
Revenue
- Total revenue for first quarter 2011 increased 15.4% or $66.3 million over fourth quarter 2010 revenue largely due to the inclusion of a full quarter of Cavalier Telephone revenue.
- Core network service revenue for first quarter 2011 increased 15.4% or $45.0 million over fourth quarter 2010 revenue.
- Core carrier service revenue for first quarter 2011 increased 18.1% or $9.1 million over fourth quarter 2010 revenue.
- Integrated solutions revenue for first quarter 2011 decreased 7.2% or $2.8 million from fourth quarter 2010 revenue primarily due to seasonal strength in the fourth quarter for equipment purchases.
Adjusted EBITDA and Margin
Adjusted EBITDA of $91.4 million for first quarter 2011 represented an increase of 26.7% or $19.3 million over adjusted EBITDA of $72.1 million for fourth quarter 2010. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.4% for first quarter 2011 compared to 16.8% for fourth quarter 2010. The strong margin improvement was a result of the impact of acquisition integration efforts as well as the inclusion of a full quarter of Cavalier Telephone revenue.
First quarter 2011 cost of goods sold increased 9.8% or $20.9 million from fourth quarter 2010, due to the inclusion of Cavalier Telephone’s results for a full quarter. Gross margin for first quarter 2011 was 52.8%, an increase from 50.4% for fourth quarter 2010. Cavalier Telephone integration efforts, network migration projects, and higher margin products all contributed to the solid improvement in overall gross margin.
SG&A expenses for first quarter 2011 were $172.7 million, including stock-based compensation of $2.4 million, and increased 18.2% or $26.6 million over fourth quarter 2010. The increase in SG&A was primarily attributable to the inclusion of a full quarter of Cavalier Telephone’s results. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expenses for first quarter 2011 increased to 34.9% from 34.0% for fourth quarter 2010. Higher benefits costs and seasonally higher payroll taxes resulted in a higher percentage of expenses on a sequential basis.
Net Loss
Net loss for first quarter 2011 was $11.9 million compared to net loss of $25.9 million for fourth quarter 2010. The reduction in net loss was primarily due to $13.4 million in non-recurring integration and transactional costs recorded for fourth quarter 2010 as compared to $2.5 million in similar costs recorded for first quarter 2011.
Actual First Quarter 2011 compared to Pro Forma First Quarter 2010
The following pro forma results for first quarter 2010 give effect to PAETEC’s acquisition of Cavalier Telephone as if it had occurred at the beginning of 2010. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined companies’ results of operations actually would have been if the acquisition had been completed as of the date indicated, nor of results that may be obtained in the future.
Actual total revenue of $495.5 million for first quarter 2011 represented an increase of 2.5% or $12.3 million over pro forma total revenue of $483.2 million for first quarter 2010. The increase in actual total revenue was primarily attributable to increased revenue from PAETEC’s acquisition of Quagga in June 2010 and U.S. Energy in February 2010. Actual adjusted EBITDA of $91.4 million for first quarter 2011 represented an increase of 3.6% or $3.2 million over pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $88.1 million for first quarter 2010.
Actual costs of goods sold for first quarter 2011 was stable at $233.9 million compared to pro forma first quarter 2010. For first quarter 2011, gross margins improved 100 basis points to 52.8% due to improved operating leverage associated with the transition from SPA circuits to UNE. Actual SG&A expenses as a percentage of actual total revenue increased to 34.9% for first quarter 2011 over pro forma SG&A expense as a percentage of pro forma revenue of 34.1% for first quarter 2010.
Actual net loss of $11.9 million for first quarter 2011 was unchanged compared to pro forma net loss from continuing operations for first quarter 2010.
Actual First Quarter 2011 Compared to Pro Forma Fourth Quarter 2010
The following pro forma results for fourth quarter 2010 give effect to PAETEC’s acquisition of Cavalier Telephone as if it had occurred at the beginning of 2010. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined companies’ results of operations actually would have been if the acquisition had been completed as of the date indicated, nor of results that may be obtained in the future.
Actual total revenue of $495.5 million for first quarter 2011 represented an increase of 0.5% or $2.2 million over pro forma total revenue of $493.3 million for fourth quarter 2010. The increase in actual total revenue was primarily attributable to organic growth in core network services revenue which more than offset seasonality in the ISG product lines. Actual adjusted EBITDA of $91.4 million for first quarter 2011 represented an increase of 4.4% or $3.8 million from pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $87.5 million for fourth quarter 2010.
Actual first quarter 2011 cost of goods sold was $233.9 million, a decrease of 2.7% or $6.4 million from pro forma cost of goods sold of $240.4 million for fourth quarter 2010. The decrease in costs was primarily due to improved network costs associated with the transition from SPA circuits to UNE. Actual gross margin increased 150 basis points to 52.8% for first quarter 2011 compared to pro forma gross margin of 51.3% for fourth quarter 2010. Actual SG&A expenses for first quarter 2011 were $172.7 million, an increase of 3.2% from pro forma SG&A expenses for fourth quarter 2010.
Actual net loss was $11.9 million for first quarter 2011 compared to pro forma net loss of $25.3 million for fourth quarter 2010. The decrease in actual net loss was primarily the result of lower additional acquisition and debt extinguishment costs, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense during the first quarter of 2011.
Capital Expenditures
For first quarter 2011, capital expenditures were $46.8 million, an increase of $17.4 million from first quarter 2010 primarily due to the acquisition of Cavalier Telephone. As a percentage of total revenue, capital expenditures were 9.5% for first quarter 2011 compared to 7.6% for first quarter 2010. The first quarter 2011 increase in capital expenditures was largely due to network enhancements to enable Ethernet over Copper, and investments in our fiber and data center infrastructure. Integration capital expenditures for first quarter 2011 were $1.5 million, and capital expenditures net of integration capital expenditures were 9.2% of first quarter 2011 revenues.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
PAETEC had a March 31, 2011 cash balance of $103.9 million compared to a year-end 2010 cash balance of $95.5 million, primarily as a result of cash generated by business operations.
Cash flow provided by operations increased to $60.7 million for first quarter 2011 from $7.8 million for first quarter 2010. Free cash flow for first quarter 2011 was $44.5 million, the 33rd consecutive quarter of free cash flow generation, and an $8.4 million increase from $36.1 million for first quarter 2010. Free cash flow for first quarter 2011 increased 6.2% from $41.9 million for fourth quarter 2010.
Indebtedness

Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by PAETEC for the periods presented, represents net loss before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, stock-based compensation, acquisition, integration and separation costs, and debt extinguishment and related costs. PAETEC’s adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measurement prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” Adjusted EBITDA is used by PAETEC’s management, together with financial measurements prepared in accordance with GAAP such as net loss and revenue, to assess PAETEC’s historical and prospective operating performance. Management uses adjusted EBITDA to enhance its understanding of PAETEC’s core operating performance, which represents management’s views concerning PAETEC’s performance in the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of its operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Overview — Adjusted EBITDA Presentation” in PAETEC’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for additional information regarding PAETEC’s reasons for including adjusted EBITDA and for material limitations with respect to the usefulness of this measurement. The table below sets forth, for the periods indicated, a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss, as net loss is calculated in accordance with GAAP:

| Free Cash Flow Calculation and Reconciliation | ||||||||||||
| (in thousands) | ||||||||||||
| Free cash flow, as defined by PAETEC, consists of adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (purchases of property and equipment). Free cash flow, as defined by PAETEC, is not a financial measurement prepared in accordance with GAAP. | ||||||||||||
| PAETEC has included data with respect to free cash flow because its management believes free cash flow provides a measure of the cash generated by PAETEC’s operations before giving effect to non-cash accounting charges, changes in operating assets and liabilities, acquisition-related items, tax items and similar items that do not directly relate to the day-to-day cash expenses of PAETEC’s operations, and after giving effect to application of capital expenditures. PAETEC’s management uses free cash flow to monitor the effect of PAETEC’s daily operations on its cash reserves and its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to fund PAETEC’s scheduled debt maturities and other financing activities, including potential refinancings and retirements of debt, and other cash items. | ||||||||||||
| PAETEC’s management believes that consideration of free cash flow should be supplemental, however, because free cash flow has limitations as an analytical financial measure. These limitations include the following: | ||||||||||||
|
• free cash flow does not reflect PAETEC’s cash expenditures for scheduled debt maturities and other fixed obligations, such as capital leases, vendor financing arrangements and the other cash items excluded from free cash flow; and
|
||||||||||||
| • free cash flow may be calculated in a different manner by other companies in PAETEC’s industry, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure. | ||||||||||||
| PAETEC’s management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on PAETEC’s results under GAAP to evaluate its operating performance and by considering independently the economic effects of the foregoing items that are not reflected in free cash flow. As a result of these limitations, free cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities, investing activities, financing activities or changes in cash and cash equivalents as calculated in accordance with GAAP, nor should it be used as a measure of the amount of cash available for debt service or for the payment of dividends or other discretionary expenditures. | ||||||||||||
