“We’re making excellent progress on our strategy and we have again
delivered strong top line growth and generated significant free cash
flow,” said Gerry Smith, chief executive officer of Office Depot. “A
primary focus during this phase of our transformation is to recapture
top-line sales growth and strengthen our core, and I’m pleased to report
that our Business Solutions Division delivered their best quarter in
over a decade, with sales up 6% in total including recent acquisitions,
and most importantly, up 1% organically. The investments that we are
making in building our services capabilities are also continuing to pay
off as service revenues again grew double digits in both our BSD and
Retail divisions. Overall, we are making great progress on our
transformation and remain confident that we have the right strategy in
place to drive sustainable, profitable growth in the future.”
Consolidated Results
Reported (GAAP) Results
Total reported sales for the third quarter 2018 were $2.9 billion compared to $2.6 billion in the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 10.2%. Product sales in the third quarter were up 1.1%, while service revenues grew 123.7%, driven primarily by the service revenues contributed by the CompuCom acquisition. Service revenue excluding the CompuCom division and revenue recognition impacts, grew 17% in the third quarter. On a reported basis, services revenue represented approximately 15% of total Company sales, up from 7% of total Company sales in the prior year.

In the third quarter 2018, Office Depot reported operating income of $105 million, flat with the prior year period. Net income from continuing operations was $60 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to $98 million and $0.19 per share in the third quarter of 2017. The third quarter 2017 net income results included a benefit from a deferred tax asset positively impacting the prior year periods results. This benefit, along with higher net interest expense associated with the CompuCom acquisition, were the primary drivers of the decrease in net income year-over-year.
For the year-to-date 2018 period, Office Depot reported operating income of $230 million compared to an operating income of $272 million for year-to-date 2017. Net income from continuing operations for year-to-date 2018 was $113 million, or $0.20 per share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $195 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for year-to-date 2017.
Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results(6)
Adjusted results for the third quarter 2018 exclude charges and credits totaling $14 million, which were comprised of $11 million in merger, acquisition and integration-related expenses, and $3 million in restructuring and other charges, as well as the after-tax impact of these items.
- Adjusted EBITDA, a primary measure in which the company measures operating performance, for the third quarter 2018 was $172 million compared to $167 million in the prior year period. Higher depreciation and amortization expense in the current quarter related to acquisitions contributed to the increase.
-
Third quarter 2018 adjusted operating income was $120 million compared
to an adjusted operating income of $128 million in the third quarter
of 2017. These amounts include a negative impact for the recent change
in pension accounting standards of $3 million in the third quarter of
2018 compared to the third quarter of 2017.
- Third quarter 2018 adjusted net income from continuing operations was $71 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net income from continuing operations of $74 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2017. The aforementioned tax benefit in the prior year period and higher net interest expense associated with the CompuCom acquisition were the primary drivers of the decrease.

Third Quarter Division Results
Business Solutions Division
Business Solutions Division reported sales were $1.4 billion in the third quarter of 2018, up 6% compared to the third quarter of 2017. The year-over-year increase reflects the impact of acquisitions and eCommerce growth. Without the impact of acquisitions, sales were up approximately 1% compared with the prior year. The improvement was primarily driven by growth in adjacency products, core supplies, and services. Product sales in the third quarter 2018 increased 5%, while services revenue increased 28% compared to the prior year period.

| Division operating income | $67 | $71 | $189 | $193 | |||||||||||||
| Division operating income margin | 4.9% | 5.5% | 4.7% | 5.0% | |||||||||||||
Business Solutions Division operating income was $67 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared to $71 million in the third quarter of 2017. The decrease in operating income versus the prior year was primarily driven by higher SG&A expenses partially offset by higher gross margin. The total SG&A dollar amount was higher as a result of recent acquisitions and investments made in demand generation activities and to enhance the eCommerce platform. The acquired companies generally have similar operating margins as compared to our core business, despite slightly higher percentage of SG&A in their business models.
Retail Division
The Retail Division reported sales of $1.3 billion in the third quarter 2018, down 6% versus the prior year period. Planned store closures and an approximately $8 million negative impact to revenue resulting from the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard contributed to the reported decline. Sales were down 5% excluding the change in revenue recognition. Product sales in the quarter declined 7%, while services revenue increased 11% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to fewer transactions in the quarter.

| Division operating income margin | 5.6% | 6.2% | 4.6% | 5.6% | |||||||||||||
Retail Division operating income was $70 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $82 million in the third quarter of 2017. The decrease in operating income versus the prior year was due to deleveraging related to store closures, lower volume sales, and investments in additional service delivery capabilities adversely impacting gross profit and SG&A as a percentage of sales.
During the third quarter of 2018, the Company closed 2 stores and ended the quarter with a total of 1,372 stores in the Retail Division.
CompuCom Division
CompuCom Division results are only included in total Company results for the third quarter of 2018, as this business was not part of Office Depot in the prior year period. However, unaudited adjusted historical results for the third quarter of 2017 have been presented for reference. CompuCom Division reported sales were $268 million in the third quarter of 2018, down 4% versus sales of $280 million in the prior year historical period, primarily related to lower sales from one of the divisions largest customers, which is currently experiencing a significant reorganization of its business. Excluding this customer’s impact, sales were approximately flat to the prior year period.

| Division operating income margin | 0.4% | 4.6% | 1.5% | 4.3% | |||||||||||||
CompuCom Division operating income was $1 million in the third quarter of 2018 versus historical operating income of $13 million in the third quarter 2017. Operating income was down versus the prior year primarily due to lower sales from a large customer experiencing a significant reorganization of its business, higher expenses associated with onboarding new customers, lower gross margin on product sales mix, and expenses related to growth initiatives. These growth initiatives contributed to a 57% increase in service order wins in the third quarter 2018 versus the same period last year, representing the fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year service order increases.
“CompuCom’s unique capabilities are a competitive differentiator allowing us to grow our services business and to attract new customers and distribution partners,” said Gerry Smith. “We are already seeing successes in cross-selling opportunities and we are scaling CompuCom’s capabilities to position us to address the SMB market and further grow our services business. Although we have made significant progress in many key strategic areas, CompuCom’s operating results for the quarter are disappointing and we are taking several actions to improve their profitability. These actions include a completed reorganization to better align with customer needs, streamlining operations and realigning our sales organization under a new sales leader. We expect that these and other actions will have a positive impact on CompuCom’s performance over the next several quarters,” he added.

The CompuCom unaudited adjusted historical results for the third quarter of 2017 reflect information prepared prior to our acquisition and have not been subject to audit or the Company’s internal control processes. Results have been adjusted for historical restructuring and acquisition costs and have been presented for reference purposes only. The results for 2017 may not be comparable to current year results nor indicative of the results of future operations of the CompuCom Division or the results that would have been attained had the acquisition been completed on January 1, 2017. |
Corporate and Other
Corporate includes support staff services and certain other expenses that are not allocated to the Company’s operating divisions. Unallocated expenses decreased to $18 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared to $24 million in the third quarter of 2017, primarily due to focused cost reductions and a tax incentive received in the quarter, more than offsetting an increase in incentive-based compensation.
The Company’s “Other” segment, which contains the retained sourcing and trading operations in Asia and the elimination of intersegment revenues, had no material contribution to sales or operating income in the third quarter of 2018.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
As of September 29, 2018, Office Depot had total available liquidity of $1.9 billion consisting of $925 million in cash and cash equivalents and $990 million available under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Total debt was $979 million, excluding $759 million of non-recourse debt related to the credit-enhanced timber installment notes.
For the third quarter 2018, cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $304 million, including the impact of $2 million in OfficeMax merger–related costs, $11 million in acquisition and integration-related costs and $5 million in restructuring costs, compared to $293 million in the third quarter of the prior year.
Capital expenditures in the quarter were $47 million versus $37 million in the prior year, reflecting increased investments in our service platform and capabilities. Accordingly, Free Cash Flow from continuing operations was $257 million in the third quarter 2018. For the year-to-date 2018 period, cash provided by operating activities was $555 million with $121 million of capital expenditures for Free Cash Flow from continuing operations of $434 million.
During the third quarter 2018, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.025 per share on September 14, 2018 for approximately $14 million and made a $18 million scheduled debt repayment on the 2022 Term Loan. In addition, Office Depot repurchased approximately 5 million shares at a total cost of $14 million in the third quarter of 2018. The Company also invested $34 million in the quarter through acquisitions to expand its BSD distribution network and its customer base.
Raising 2018 Guidance(8)
“Throughout the year, we’ve made excellent progress to reverse historic trends and regain traction in sales growth, beating on all key measures versus the original guidance we set at the beginning of the year,” said Smith. “Our incremental top-line revenue growth this year has been driven by organic sales increases in our BSD division and improving sales trends in our retail division. For 2018, we now expect to exceed our guidance for total sales, as well as reaffirm our guidance for adjusted operating income. Also, our operational discipline and focus on working capital initiatives have enabled us to generate $434 million in Free Cash Flow year to date, surpassing our guidance for the year. We now expect to approximate $450 million in Free Cash Flow by year end. We are also providing guidance for 2018 Adjusted EBITDA, an operating metric we watch closely and a measure our investors frequently request,” he added.
| FY 2018 Guidance | Previous FY 2018 Guidance | Revised FY 2018 Guidance | ||||||||||||
| Sales | ~$10.8 billion | ~$11.0 billion | ||||||||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA | ~$560 million | |||||||||||||
| Adjusted Operating Income | ~$360 million | ~$360 million | ||||||||||||
| Free Cash Flow | ~$350 million | ~$450 million | ||||||||||||
2019 Guidance(8)
Consistent with the long-term outlook provided at its Investor Day meeting earlier this year, the company is issuing the following guidance for full year 2019.
| FY 2019 Guidance | |||||||||
| Sales | ~$11.1 billion | ||||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA | ~$575 million | ||||||||
| Adjusted Operating Income | ~$375 million | ||||||||
| Free Cash Flow | ~$350 million | ||||||||
This guidance considers improving sales trends in its BSD and Retail divisions, as well as stabilizing sales trends at its CompuCom division. Additionally, this guidance includes targeted initiatives aimed at addressing increased cost pressures, improved operating results at its CompuCom division, and a continued focus on meaningful free cash flow generation.

(8) |
The Company’s outlook for 2018 and 2019 included in this release is for continuing operations only and includes non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and free cash flow. These measures exclude charges or credits not indicative of core operations, which may include but not be limited to merger integration expenses, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, executive transition costs, asset impairments and other significant items that currently cannot be predicted. The exact amount of these charges or credits are not currently determinable, but may be significant. Accordingly, the Company is unable to provide equivalent GAAP measures or reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP for these financial measures. |

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)
We report our results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). We also review certain financial measures excluding impacts of transactions that are not related to our core operations (“non-GAAP”). Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the ability of its investors to analyze trends in its business and provides a means to compare periods that may be affected by various items that might obscure trends or developments in its business. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures to assist in making business decisions and assessing overall performance. Non-GAAP measures help to evaluate programs and activities that are intended to attract and satisfy customers, separate from expenses and credits directly associated with Merger, restructuring, and certain similar items. Certain non-GAAP measures are also used for short and long-term incentive programs.
Our measurement of these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from similarly titled financial measures used by others and therefore may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to the GAAP measures, but only to clarify some information and assist the reader. We have included reconciliations of this information to the most comparable GAAP measures in the tables included within this material.
The Company’s outlook for 2018 and 2019 includes adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and free cash flow. These measures exclude charges or credits not indicative of our core operations, which may include but not be limited to merger integration expenses, restructuring charges, asset impairments, and other significant items that currently cannot be predicted. The exact amount of these charges or credits are not currently determinable, but may be significant. Accordingly, the company is unable to provide a reconciliation to an equivalent net income, operating income or operating cash flow outlook for 2018 and 2019.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is an important indicator that provides additional perspective on our ability to generate cash to fund our strategy and expand our distribution network.
