Maximus Reports Fiscal Year 2022 Third Quarter Results
- Awards and Strong Pipeline Support Base and Drive Longer-Term Growth -
(Tysons, Va. - August 3, 2022) - Maximus (NYSE: MMS), a leading provider of government services worldwide, reported financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022.
Highlights for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 include:
Revenue decreased $118 million to $1.13 billion, compared to $1.24 billion for the prior year period, which is net of a $413 million expected decline in short-term COVID-19 response work. This decrease was offset by organic growth and acquired growth from the U.S. Federal Services Segment acquisitions.
Operating margin was 4.8%, or 6.9% adjusting for amortization of intangible assets. Diluted earnings per share were $0.51, or $0.78 adjusting for amortization of intangible assets.
Earnings negatively impacted by a contract in Outside the U.S. Segment requiring a write-down of $11.7 million, or $0.14 of diluted earnings per share. As a result, the company is revising earnings guidance for fiscal year 2022, with earnings per share estimated to range between $2.85 and $3.05 per share, or $3.95 to $4.15 per share adjusting for amortization of intangible assets. Revenue guidance midpoint of $4.6 billion is unchanged from prior guidance with ranges tightened to between $4.55 billion and $4.65 billion.
Year-to-date signed contract awards at June 30, 2022, totaled $4.02 billion and contracts pending (awarded but unsigned) totaled $476 million.
A quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per share payable on August 31, 2022, to shareholders of record on August 15, 2022.
"Despite near-term headwinds as COVID work subsides and the Public Health Emergency (PHE) continues, Maximus is well-positioned for future growth as evidenced by our strong new work awards and pipeline, and capacity to take on anticipated volume expansion in our core programs," shared Bruce Caswell, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our recently refreshed strategic plan sharpens our focus while expanding our addressable market substantially. Already, we see early points on the board in the form of wins related to our Future of Health and Technology Services growth pillars."
Caswell continued, "While near term pandemic-related disruptions remain out of our control, I am pleased with how we’ve taken control in other areas, advanced our capabilities, and positioned for future organic growth, some of which has been years in the making. As evidence of this, for the first time we were recently ranked by Washington Technology as a top 20 U.S. Federal contractor by prime obligations."
Third Quarter Results
Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 decreased $118 million to $1.13 billion, compared to $1.24 billion for the prior year period, which is net of a $413 million expected decline in short-term COVID-19 response work. The decline was offset by a combination of organic growth and acquired growth from the U.S. Federal Services Segment acquisitions. Adjusting for COVID-19 response work, normalized organic growth would be approximately 21% over the prior year period.
Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 totaled $54.6 million yielding an operating margin of 4.8%, or 6.9% adjusting for amortization of intangible assets. This compares to an operating margin of 11.2% for the prior year period, or 12.2% adjusting for amortization. Diluted earnings per share were $0.51, or $0.78 adjusting for amortization as compared to $1.51 per share, or $1.66 adjusting for amortization, for the prior year period.

Earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 were negatively impacted by a contract in the Outside the U.S. Segment that required a write-down of $11.7 million, or $0.14 diluted earnings per share. Absent the write-down, results were in-line with the company's expectations for lower earnings caused by declines in profitable short-term COVID-19 response work and lower volumes in core programs as Medicaid redeterminations remain paused.
U.S. Services Segment
The U.S. Services Segment reported revenue of $399 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 compared to $436 million reported in the prior year period. The revenue decline was due to the expected reduction in short-term COVID-19 response work. Adjusting for this work, normalized organic growth in the segment was nearly 40% driven by ramping of new core work and COVID-19 response work that has evolved into longer term work with new customers gained during the pandemic.
Operating margin for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 was 8.0% for the segment compared to 14.3% reported for the prior year period. The lower comparative margin was in-line with company expectations due to declines in profitable, short term COVID-19 response work while the redetermination activities tied to the ongoing Public Health Emergency (PHE) remain paused.
U.S. Federal Services Segment
U.S. Federal Services Segment revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 decreased to $526 million, compared to $618 million reported for the prior year. The decline was driven by expected reductions in short term COVID-19 response work, partially offset by contributions from the acquisitions of VES and Aidvantage. Adjusting for COVID-19 response work, normalized organic growth in the segment was approximately 6% over the prior year period.
The segment's operating margin for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 was 10.4% which was in-line with the company's expectation. This compares to 13.9% reported for the prior year period which benefited from particularly high volumes of COVID-19 response work.
Outside the U.S. Segment
Outside the U.S. Segment revenue for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 increased 6.0% to $201 million as compared to $190 million reported for the prior year. Results were net of a 9% currency headwind. Adjusting for COVID-19 response work, normalized organic growth in the segment was approximately 21% over the prior year period and driven primarily by ramping of the U.K. Restart Programme.
The segment realized an operating loss of $11.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 as compared to operating income of $8.3 million for the prior year period. The loss was driven by a write-down on a project in the implementation phase. Due to higher forecasted costs, a forward loss provision was recorded this quarter, putting the contract on a path to breakeven over the remaining life.
Sales and Pipeline
Year-to-date signed contract awards at June 30, 2022, totaled $4.02 billion and contracts pending (awarded but unsigned) totaled $476 million. Awards booked in the third quarter include the previously-disclosed Indiana Eligibility Operations Support new contract, a one-year extension on the CMS Contact Center Operations contract, and various rebid wins.
The sales pipeline at June 30, 2022, was $32.5 billion (comprised of approximately $7.3 billion in proposals pending, $3.6 billion in proposals in preparation, and $21.6 billion in opportunities tracking). New work opportunities represent approximately 59% of the total sales pipeline.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flows
At June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled $93.7 million and gross debt was $1.49 billion. The ratio of debt, net of allowed cash, to pro-forma EBITDA for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as calculated in accordance with our credit agreement, was 2.9x.

maximus_logox2022a.jpg
For the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, cash from operating activities totaled $57.9 million, and free cash flow was $44.9 million. As of June 30, 2022, Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) were 70 days and within the company's typical range of 65 to 80 days. Large collections that were delayed several days were responsible for lower-than-expected cash flows and a higher DSO in the quarter.
Purchases of Maximus common stock totaled $48.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. Subsequent to quarter-end, an additional $22.3 million of purchases have been made.
On July 8, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 for each share of our common stock outstanding. The dividend is payable on August 31, 2022, to shareholders of record on August 15, 2022.
Updated Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance
The company expects revenue for fiscal year 2022 to range between $4.55 billion and $4.65 billion, yielding a $4.6 billion midpoint that is unchanged from prior guidance. Diluted earnings per share is estimated to range between $2.85 and $3.05 per share, or $3.95 to $4.15 per share adjusting for amortization of intangible assets.
Earnings guidance is revised following third quarter results inclusive of the write-down in the Outside the U.S. Segment. In addition, ramp-up costs to prepare for higher volumes anticipated in the U.S. Federal Services Segment's clinical business in fiscal year 2023, along with retention efforts for the existing staff, results in an $8 million to $10 million investment in the second half of fiscal year 2022. This contributed to pressure on fiscal year 2022 guidance but will provide a benefit to next fiscal year.
For fiscal year 2022, cash flows from operations are expected to range between $220 million and $260 million, and free cash flow to range between $170 million and $210 million. The effective income tax rate is expected to range between 25.0% and 25.5%, weighted average shares outstanding to range between 61.8 million and 62.0 million, absent further share purchase activity, and interest expense to be approximately $42 million for fiscal year 2022.
Mr. Caswell added, "As the short-term COVID-19 response work sunsets, we already see examples of longer-term tailwinds in the business in the form of solid wins, including re-competes, add-on scope, and new wins. We are well-positioned to help our state customers with near-term priorities like the PHE unwinding and to deliver increased assessment capacity at the Federal level as well as IT modernization and transformation which represent customer priorities over the longer run."
