PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rent-A-Center, Inc. (the "Company" or "Rent-A-Center") (NASDAQ:RCII), now known as Upbound Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Upbound") (NASDAQ:UPBD, effective February 27, 2023) today announced results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
“We are encouraged by the Company’s fourth quarter performance as we executed well on our top line, risk management, and efficiency initiatives to mitigate the effects of macro-economic headwinds, and delivered financial results that exceeded our revised outlook,” said Mitch Fadel, Chief Executive Officer.
“Reflecting on full-year results, 2022 was a challenging operating environment with many households adjusting their financial priorities following the unsustainable levels of stimulus-driven income and consumption that occurred in 2020 and 2021, while experiencing the highest inflation in decades. This drove significant headwinds in our business throughout the year, to which we responded with several initiatives that we believe position the Company well going forward. Examples of recent initiatives include improved automation, new investments to better utilize data analytics in our underwriting processes, and several new executive hires,” continued Mr. Fadel.
“While the external environment remains challenging and uncertain, we believe the Company is in better standing today to address the growing demand for flexible consumer financial solutions. To effectively align our vision, values, and strategies, the Company is organizing itself under a new enterprise brand and changing its corporate name to Upbound Group, Inc., which will trade under the ticker UPBD starting on February 27th. As we start this next stage of the Company’s evolution, I am very optimistic about our ability to deliver significant value for our customers, merchant partners, employees and shareholders,” concluded Mr. Fadel.

- Effective February 22, 2023, Rent-A-Center, Inc. changed its parent company name to Upbound Group, Inc.

Fourth Quarter Consolidated Results
- Fourth quarter 2022 consolidated revenues decreased 15.4% year-over-year to $990 million, primarily due to lower rental revenues in both the Acima and Rent-A-Center Business segments from lower lease portfolio values compared to the prior year period.
- GAAP operating profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $42.3 million and included $49.8 million of pre-tax costs relating to special items described below, compared to $36.8 million of GAAP operating profit and $73.5 million of pre-tax costs relating to special items in the prior year period. The year-over-year decrease in GAAP operating profit, excluding special items, for the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily due to lower consolidated revenues and higher loss rates.

- Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased 15.2% year-over-year to $110.1 million, primarily due to lower revenues and higher loss rates for the Rent-A-Center Business segment. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.1% in the fourth quarter of 2022, was unchanged compared to the prior year period.
- GAAP diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $0.05 compared to $0.15 in the prior year period.

Fourth Quarter Segment Highlights
Rent-A-Center Business Segment: As of December 31, 2022, the segment lease portfolio value was 4.7% lower than the prior year period. Fourth quarter 2022 revenues decreased 7.7% year-over-year to $467.4 million, primarily due to the lower lease portfolio value yielding less rental and fee revenues. E-commerce accounted for approximately 25% of revenue in our lease-to-own stores in the fourth quarter, compared to approximately 24% in the prior year period. Same-store sales decreased 8.1% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, but were up 2.3% on a two-year stacked basis.
Skip/stolen losses were 5.8% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 4.0% in the prior year period and 5.8% in the third quarter of 2022. On a GAAP basis, segment operating profit margin was 13.5%, compared to 18.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 14.6%, compared to 19.3% in the fourth quarter of 2021. The year-over-year decrease in operating profit margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily attributable to lower revenues, and higher loss rates, partially offset by the Company's efficiency initiatives.

Acima Segment: Fourth quarter 2022 Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) decreased 23.4% year-over-year, primarily due to lower customer traffic at merchant partners generating fewer lease applications per store. Fourth quarter revenues decreased 22.2% year-over-year to $476.3 million, primarily due to a lower portfolio value yielding less rental and fees revenues.
Skip/stolen losses were 8.9% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 11.8% in the prior year period and 9.0% in the third quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release and the Company's related conference call contain certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), including (1) Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (net earnings or loss, as adjusted for special items (as defined below), net of taxes, divided by the number of shares of our common stock on a fully diluted basis), (2) Adjusted EBITDA (net earnings before interest, taxes, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for special items) on a consolidated and segment basis, (3) Free Cash Flow (net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures), (4) Adjusted EBITDA margin on a consolidated and segment basis and (5) net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio. “Special items” refers to certain gains and charges we view as extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring in nature or which we believe do not reflect our core business activities. For the periods presented herein, these special items are described in the quantitative reconciliation tables included below in this release. Because of the inherent uncertainty related to the special items, management does not believe it is able to provide a meaningful forecast of the comparable GAAP measures or reconciliation to any forecasted GAAP measure without unreasonable effort.
These non-GAAP measures are additional tools intended to assist our management in comparing our performance on a more consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. These measures are intended to assist management in evaluating operating performance and liquidity, comparing performance and liquidity across periods, planning and forecasting future business operations, helping determine levels of operating and capital investments and identifying and assessing additional trends potentially impacting our Company that may not be shown solely by comparisons of GAAP measures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is also used as part of our incentive compensation program for our executive officers and others.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures also provide supplemental information that is useful to investors, analysts and other external users of our consolidated financial statements in understanding our financial results and evaluating our performance and liquidity from period to period. However, non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations and are not substitutes for or superior to, and they should be read together with, our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare such measures to the non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, even if they have the same or similar names.
Reconciliation of net earnings to net earnings excluding special items and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share:
