Management Discussion
"With a year under our belt since our transformative technology acquisition, we are pleased with the evolution of DLH into a unique provider of digital transformation and cyber security, science research and development, and systems engineering services across a broad array of health, human services, and military clients," said Zach Parker, DLH President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our top line in fiscal 2023 surpassed $375 million, and we delivered $42.1 million of Adjusted EBITDA. At the same time, we remained focused on paying down debt to strengthen the balance sheet and decrease interest expense — reducing debt by more than $28 million since completing the acquisition. Our cash-generating ability continues to return value to our shareholders through debt reduction while providing the financial flexibility to pursue strategic opportunities to deliver organic growth.
"We believe that our strong suite of services and current contract portfolio, which we expect will continue to deliver revenue volume averaging over $100 million per quarter, — and access to multiple contract vehicles and bidding opportunities — position us very well for top line growth and continued strong operating results going forward. Our employees' expertise and dedication have driven DLH to its current role as a leading technology solutions provider. We expect to capitalize on the solid foundation as we leverage our full range of capabilities in fiscal 2024 and beyond."
Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $101.5 million versus $67.2 million in fiscal 2022, with the year-over-year increase reflecting contributions of $33.1 million from the acquisition of GRSi in December 2022 and organic growth.
Income from operations was $0.1 million for the quarter versus $4.7 million in the prior-year period and, as a percentage of revenue, the Company reported operating margin of 0.1% in fiscal 2023 fourth quarter versus 7.0% in the same period in fiscal 2022. Income from operations for the 2023 fourth quarter was impacted by a non-cash impairment of approximately $7.7 million from the reduction in the fair value of certain leased office space. Comparing this quarter's operating income performance to the same period in the prior fiscal year, excluding the impact from corporate development costs and the impairment charge, Adjusted Operating Income was $7.8 million and $5.1 million, respectively an increase of $2.7 million. As a percentage of revenue, Adjusted Operating Income was 7.7% and 7.5% for each respective quarter.
Interest expense was $4.8 million in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2023 versus $0.5 million in the prior-year period, reflecting higher debt outstanding due to the acquisition of GRSi and increased market interest rates. (Loss)/Income before income taxes was $(4.6) million for the fourth quarter this year, reflecting the impact of the $7.7 million impairment charge, versus $4.2 million in fiscal 2022, representing (4.6)% and 6.3% of revenue, respectively, for each period.
For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, DLH recorded a $(2.0) million and $0.8 million of income tax (benefit)/expense. The Company reported net (loss)/income of approximately $(2.6) million, or $(0.18) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 versus $3.4 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted Net Income was $2.3 million versus $3.7 million in the prior-year period
resulting in Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.16 and $0.26 for each respective period. As a percentage of revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and 2022, net loss and net income were (2.6%) and 5.1%, respectively.
On a non-GAAP basis, EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was approximately $4.4 million versus $6.6 million in the prior-year period, or 4.4% and 9.8% of revenue, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA1 was $12.1 million versus $7.0 million in the prior-year period, or 11.9% and 10.8% of Adjusted Revenue, respectively.
Key Financial Indicators
During fiscal 2023, DLH generated $31.0 million in operating cash. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $0.2 million and debt outstanding under its credit facilities of $179.4 million versus cash of $0.2 million and debt outstanding of $20.4 million as of September 30, 2022, before the acquisition of GRSi. The Company expects to reduce its total debt balance to between $157.0 million and $153.0 million by the end of fiscal 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company is presenting additional non-GAAP measures regarding its financial performance for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The measures presented are Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share ("EPS"), Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Adjusted Revenue. In calculating these measures, we have added the corporate development costs associated with completing the GRSi acquisition to our results for fiscal year 2023 and 2022, removed the impairment loss on certain real estate assets, and removed the contribution from the FEMA task orders from the results for fiscal year 2022. These resulting measures present the quarterly and annual financial performance compared to results delivered in the prior year period. Definitions of these additional non-GAAP measures are set forth below.
We have prepared these additional non-GAAP measures to eliminate the impact of items that we do not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherently unusual or extraordinary nature. These non-GAAP measures of performance are used by management to conduct and evaluate its business during its review of operating results for the periods presented. Management and the Company's Board utilize these non-GAAP measures to make decisions about the use of the Company's resources, analyze performance between periods, develop internal projections and measure management performance. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company's ongoing operating and financial results and understanding how such results compare with the Company's historical performance.
These supplemental performance measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies in our industry. Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin on Revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Adjusted Revenue are not recognized measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and when analyzing our performance investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures and (ii) use the aforementioned non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as an alternative to, revenue, operating income, net income or diluted EPS, as measures of operating results, each as defined under GAAP. We have defined these non-GAAP measures as follows:
“Adjusted Revenue” represents revenue less the contribution to revenue from the short-term FEMA task orders.
“Adjusted Operating Income” represents operating income plus the corporate development costs associated with completing the GRSi acquisition in fiscal 2023 and 2022 and the impairment loss on the right of use asset incurred only in fiscal 2023, less the contribution from the FEMA task orders, which occurred only in fiscal 2022.
“Adjusted Net Income” represents net income including the corporate development costs associated with completing the acquisition, the impairment loss on the right of use asset, as well as the FEMA task orders.
“Adjusted Diluted EPS” represents diluted EPS calculated using Adjusted Net Income as opposed to net income.
"EBITDA" represents net income before income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization.
“Adjusted EBITDA” represents net income before income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization and the corporate costs associated with completing the acquisition, the impairment loss on the right of use asset less the contribution from FEMA task orders.
“Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Adjusted Revenue” is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Adjusted Revenue.
Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin on Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Adjusted Revenue reported for the three months and fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 compared to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as follows (in thousands except for per share amounts):

(a): Represents revenue adjusted to exclude revenue from the short-term FEMA task orders during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.
(b): Represents corporate development costs we incurred to complete the GRSi transaction. These costs primarily include legal counsel, financial due diligence, customer market analysis and representation and warranty insurance premiums.
(c): Represents impairment loss of certain long-lived real estate assets associated with a reduction of the fair value of an asset prompted by a triggering event. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, DLH reduced its leased office space requirement by consolidating underutilized premises as part of an ongoing facility rationalization effort, to accurately reflect the operational needs of the business. As a result, the Company has determined that its Right of Use Assets experienced a reduction in fair value below its associated carrying value and recorded a $7.7 million loss of fair value.
(d):Adjusted operating income represents the Company’s consolidated operating income, determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to add the corporate development costs associated with the GRSi acquisition for fiscal year 2023, adjusted to add back the impairment loss of certain real estate assets and adjusted to exclude the operating income derived from the FEMA task orders. Operating income for the FEMA task orders for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, is derived by subtracting from the revenue attributable to the task orders of $125.8 million the following amounts associated with such task orders: contract costs $112.1 million and general & administrative costs of $1.2 million.
(e) Adjusted net income represents the Company’s consolidated net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, adding back the impairment loss of long-lived assets and corporate development costs as defined, less the net income derived from the FEMA task orders. There was no net income derived from the FEMA task orders during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, net income for the FEMA task orders is derived by subtracting from the revenue attributable to the task orders of $125.8 million the following amounts associated with such task orders: contract costs of $112.1 million, general & administrative costs of $1.2 million, and provision for income taxes of $3.2 million.
(f) Adjusted diluted earnings per share (adjusted diluted EPS) is calculated by adding back the effect on the Company's diluted EPS determined in accordance with GAAP, of the impairment loss of long-lived assets and corporate development costs as defined, as well as their tax effect as defined, and subtracting the effect on diluted EPS for the FEMA task orders.
(g) Tax effect is the impact the tax expense per the tax provision
