Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA $11.8 million; $2.9 million for the Quarter
JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 24, 2019 / GEE Group Inc. (NYSE American: JOB) ("the Company" or "GEE Group"), a provider of professional staffing services and solutions, today announced consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Highlights
- Revenue for the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter was approximately $38.9 million. Contract staffing services contributed approximately $34.1 million or approximately 88% of revenue and direct placement services contributed approximately $4.8 million or approximately 12% of revenue. This compares to contract staffing services of approximately $34.4 million or approximately 86% of revenue and direct placement services of approximately $5.6 million or approximately 14% of revenue respectively for the same quarter of fiscal 2018.
- Revenue for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $151.7 million, lower by approximately 8% over the prior fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. Contract staffing services contributed approximately $133.1 million or approximately 88% of revenue and direct placement services contributed approximately $18.5 million or approximately 12% of revenue. This compares to contract staffing services of approximately $142.2 million or approximately 86% of revenue and direct placement services of approximately $23.1 million or approximately 14% of revenue respectively for the 2018 fiscal year. The decrease in contract staffing services and direct placement services revenue for fiscal 2019, compared to fiscal 2018, was primarily due to management's design and implementation of a performance improvement plan which resulted in the reduction in the number of marginally performing and underperforming full time employees in sales, recruitment and account management coupled with certain office consolidations.
- Revenue from combined professional contract and professional direct placement services, which is comprised of staffing and solutions in the information technology, engineering, healthcare and finance & accounting specialties, was approximately $33.3 million and represents approximately 86% of total revenue for the 2019 fiscal fourth quarter and approximately $130 million and approximately 86% of total revenue respectively for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. This compares to approximately $34.4 million or approximately 86% of total revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 and approximately $143.6 million and approximately 87% of total revenue respectively for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. A component of the Company's strategic plan is to focus on the higher margin professional staffing and solutions services sectors through organic growth and acquisitions.
- Overall combined gross margin for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2019 (including direct placement services which is recorded at 100% gross margin) was approximately 34.2% compared to approximately 37.1% for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2018. The combined overall contract staffing gross margin (excluding direct placement services) was approximately 25% for the fiscal year fourth quarter of 2019 vs. approximately 26.9% for the comparable prior year quarter. Overall combined professional services gross margin for the 2019 fiscal year fourth quarter (including direct placement services) was approximately 37.3% vs. approximately 38.4% for the 2018 fiscal year fourth quarter. Professional contract staffing services gross margin (excluding direct placement services) for the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2019 was approximately 26.8% vs. approximately 26.5% for the comparable prior year quarter. Commercial (industrial) staffing services gross margin was approximately 15.9% for the 2019 fiscal year fourth quarter vs. approximately 14.2% for the 2018 fiscal year fourth quarter (unadjusted for the full effect of workers compensation rebates received in each of the fiscal fourth quarters; if the rebates were taken into account in the 2019 and 2018 fourth quarters, gross margin would be several hundred basis points higher in each of the fiscal year fourth quarters. See comparative full fiscal year results below). The changes in GEE's 2019 fiscal year fourth quarter vs. the 2018 fiscal year fourth quarter in overall gross margin, overall contract staffing gross margin, professional contract staffing gross margin and commercial (industrial) staffing services gross margin are primarily attributable to more direct placement revenue as a percentage of total revenue in the fiscal 2018 fourth quarter compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, revenue mix and the elimination of lower margin business, plus the benefit of an enhanced workers compensation program including rebates in the commercial (industrial) staffing services division.
- The Company's overall combined gross margin for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 (including direct placement services) was approximately 34.3% compared to approximately 35.7% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The combined overall contract staffing gross margin (excluding direct placement services) was unchanged and approximately 25.2% for the 2019 fiscal year end vs. approximately 25.2% for the 2018 fiscal year end. Professional contract staffing services gross margin (excluding direct placement services) for the 2019 fiscal year end was approximately 26% compared to approximately 26.5% for the 2018 fiscal year end. Including workers' compensation rebates earned in each of the fiscal years, commercial staffing services (light industrial) gross margin for the 2019 fiscal year end was approximately 20.8% compared to approximately 17.9% for the 2018 fiscal year end. The changes in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 vs. the comparable 2018 prior fiscal year in overall gross margin, overall contract staffing gross margin, professional contract staffing gross margin and commercial staffing services gross margin, are primarily attributable to more direct hire revenue as a percentage of revenue in the 2018 fiscal year compared to the 2019 fiscal year, revenue mix including MSP/VMS and the elimination of lower margin business, plus the benefit of a workers compensation program and rebates in the commercial (industrial) services division.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were approximately $10.9 million and approximately 28% as a percentage of revenue for the 2019 fiscal fourth quarter compared to approximately $11.6 million and approximately 29% of revenue for the 2018 fiscal fourth quarter. The decrease in SG&A expenses and SG&A as a percentage of revenue for the 2019 fiscal fourth quarter vs. the comparable prior year quarter is primarily due to the effect of the Company's performance improvement plan which reduced personnel costs and related ancillary expenses.
- SG&A was approximately $42.5 million for the 2019 fiscal year compared to approximately $47.4 million for the 2018 fiscal year. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased as a percentage of revenue for the 2019 fiscal year and were approximately 28% compared to approximately 29% of revenue for the 2018 fiscal year. The approximately $4.9 million and 100 basis point decrease in SG&A primarily resulted from the implementation of GEE's performance improvement plan by improving productivity and lowering certain personnel costs, office expenses and related overhead expenses.
- GAAP loss from operations for the 2019 fiscal fourth quarter was approximately $386,000 compared to GAAP income from operations of approximately $378,000 for the comparable fiscal 2018 prior year quarter. GAAP loss from operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $5.0 million vs. GAAP income from operations of approximately $2.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.
- GAAP net loss for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $3.6 million compared to a GAAP net loss of approximately $1.6 million for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2018. The GAAP net loss for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2018 included an income tax benefit of approximately $1.1 million as compared to an income tax benefit of approximately $30,000 for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2019. GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $17.8 million vs. a GAAP net loss of approximately $7.6 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 included approximately $4.3 million in a noncash goodwill impairment charge. The GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 included an income tax benefit of approximately $859,000 as compared to an income tax expense of approximately $370,000 included in the GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.
- Adjusted EBITDA (adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure) computed EBITDA as adjusted for noncash stock compensation and stock option expense, acquisition, integration & restructuring expenses and changes in acquisition deposit for working capital guarantee for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $2.9 million vs. adjusted EBITDA of approximately $3.1 million for the comparable 2018 prior year fiscal fourth quarter.

Full Year Financial Results: Discussion
The Company reported consolidated revenue of approximately $151.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2019 as compared to revenue of approximately $165.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. Contract staffing services contributed approximately $133.1 million or approximately 88% of consolidated revenue and direct placement services contributed approximately $18.5 million or approximately 12% of consolidated revenue for the 2019 fiscal year versus approximately $142.2 million or approximately 86% of consolidated revenue and approximately $23.1 million or approximately 14% of consolidated revenue respectively for the 2018 fiscal year. The decrease in contract staffing services and direct placement services revenue for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 was primarily due to management's design and implementation of a performance improvement plan which resulted in the reduction in the number of marginally performing and underperforming full time employees in sales, recruitment and account management coupled with certain office consolidations. Commercial (industrial) staffing services revenue was approximately $21.7 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 as compared to approximately $21.6 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.
GEE Group's overall combined gross margin for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 (including direct placement services) was approximately 34.3% as compared to approximately 35.7% recorded for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in overall combined gross margin for the 2019 fiscal year was primarily attributable to a lower direct placement services revenue which is recorded at 100% gross profit. The Company's professional contract staffing services gross profit margin, excluding direct placement services for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, was approximately 26% versus approximately 26.5% for fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The Company's commercial (industrial) staffing services gross margin for the 2019 fiscal year was approximately 20.8% versus approximately 17.9% for the 2018 fiscal year. The change in professional contract staffing services gross margin was primarily due to a revenue mix change including MSP/VMS business which typically carries lower gross margin and lower SG&A with good profitability. GEE's commercial (industrial) staffing services division gross margin including Ohio workers' compensation insurance refunds improved by approximately 280 basis points for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 vs. the comparable prior year period. The improved gross margin was primarily attributable to the elimination of less profitable customers, better pricing from new and existing customers, and the increased benefit of lower workers' compensation costs and related rebates in the 2019 fiscal year.
The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the year ended September 30, 2019 decreased by approximately $4.9 million to approximately $42.5 million compared to approximately $47.4 million for the prior fiscal year. The decrease was related to the implementation of a performance improvement plan that reduced headcount costs and lowered overall associated expenses.
GEE Group recorded a GAAP loss from operations of approximately $5.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 compared to a GAAP income from operations of approximately $2.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended in 2019 was approximately $17.8 million compared to GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended in 2018 of approximately $7.6 million. The GAAP net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 included a noncash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $4.3 million, increased interest costs and higher acquisition, integration and merger expenses. GAAP net loss for the 2018 fiscal year included a tax benefit of approximately $859,000 vs. income tax expense of approximately $370,000 included in GAAP net loss for the 2019 fiscal year.
GEE Group's adjusted EBITDA (adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure), computed EBITDA as adjusted for noncash stock compensation and stock option expense, acquisition, integration & restructuring expenses, changes in acquisition deposit for working capital guarantee and noncash goodwill impairment charges was approximately $11.8 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 compared to adjusted EBITDA of approximately $13.2 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. Reconciliations of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 to GAAP net income (net loss) for those periods are attached to this press release.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company discloses and uses the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures internally as a supplement to GAAP financial information to evaluate its operating performance, for financial planning purposes, to establish operational goals, for compensation plans, to measure debt service capability, for capital expenditure planning and to determine working capital needs and believes that these are useful financial measures also used by investors. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income or net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) adjusted for the non-cash stock compensation and stock option expense, acquisition, integration & restructuring expenses, changes in acquisition deposit for working capital guarantee and noncash goodwill impairment charges. Non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA are not terms defined by GAAP and, as a result, the Company's measure of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures discussed above , however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to net income or net loss as reported for GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Income, cash and cash flows on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and as reflected on the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP included in GEE Group's Form 10Q and Form 10K for the respective periods filed with the SEC. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for or presented in lieu of financial measures provided by GAAP and all measures and disclosures of financial information pursuant to GAAP as reflected in Form 10Q and Form 10-K for the respective periods should be read to obtain a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the Company's financial results. The reconciliations of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to GAAP operating income (loss) and/or GAAP net income (net loss) referred to in the highlights or elsewhere in this press release are provided in the schedules that are a part of this press release.
