Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DNB), a leading
global provider of business decisioning data and analytics, today
announced unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended
March 31, 2024. A reconciliation of U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (“GAAP”) to non-GAAP financial measures has
been provided in this press release, including the accompanying
tables. An explanation of these measures is also included below
under the heading “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
- Revenue for the first quarter of 2024 was $564.5 million, an
increase of 4.5% and 4.1% on a constant currency basis compared to
the first quarter of 2023.
- Organic revenue increased 4.3% on a constant currency basis
compared to the first quarter of 2023.
- GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $23.2 million,
or diluted earnings per share of $0.05, compared to net loss of
$33.7 million, or loss per share of $0.08 for the prior year
quarter. Adjusted net income was $85.0 million, or adjusted diluted
earnings per share of $0.20, compared to adjusted net income of
$80.5 million, or adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.19 for
the prior year quarter.
- Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $201.3
million, an increase of 6.0% compared to the prior year quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter of 2024 was
35.7%.
“We are pleased with our strong start to the year, as we
delivered organic revenue growth of 4.3 percent, Adjusted EBITDA
margin expansion of 50 basis points, and improved free cash flow
conversion during the first quarter. Our growth is driven by the
improvements we have made in cross-sell and upsell, new logo
acquisition, new solution innovation and pricing. In particular, we
continue to see strong demand for master data management and third
party and supply chain risk solutions. Clients and prospects
throughout the world continue to need better data, analytics and
insights into the risk profiles of their most critical vendors and
third parties, and we believe the depth and breadth of our global
private company data assets provides a significant advantage,” said
Anthony Jabbour, Dun & Bradstreet Chief Executive Officer. “We
are encouraged with our progress to date, and we remain confident
in our ability to deliver on our fiscal year 2024 financial and
operational goals. In recognition of our optimism regarding the
Company’s future financial performance, as well as a strengthening
balance sheet, I am pleased to announce that our board of directors
has approved a share repurchase program to capitalize on what we
see as a highly favorable buying opportunity.”

share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares from
time to time through open market purchases, in privately negotiated
transactions or by other means, in accordance with applicable
securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The repurchase
program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect Dun &
Bradstreet’s expectations as of today's date and Revenue assumes
constant foreign currency rates. Dun & Bradstreet does not
present a qualitative reconciliation of its forward-looking
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
measure due to the inherent difficulty, without unreasonable
efforts, in forecasting and quantifying with reasonable accuracy
significant items required for this reconciliation. Given the
number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed
below, actual results may differ materially. Dun & Bradstreet
does not intend to update its forward-looking statements until its
next quarterly results announcement, other than in publicly
available statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting GAAP results, we evaluate performance
and report our results on the non-GAAP financial measures discussed
below. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures
provides useful information to investors and rating agencies
regarding our results, operating trends and performance between
periods. These non-GAAP financial measures include organic revenue,
adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (‘‘adjusted EBITDA’’), adjusted EBITDA margin,
adjusted net income and adjusted net earnings per diluted share.
Adjusted results are non-GAAP measures that adjust for the impact
due to certain acquisition and divestiture related revenue and
expenses, such as costs for banker fees, legal fees, due diligence,
retention payments and contingent consideration adjustments,
restructuring charges, equity-based compensation, transition costs
and other non-core gains and charges that are not in the normal
course of our business, such as costs associated with early debt
redemptions, gains and losses on sales of businesses, impairment
charges, the effect of significant changes in tax laws and material
tax and legal settlements. We exclude amortization of recognized
intangible assets resulting from the application of purchase
accounting because it is non-cash and not indicative of our ongoing
and underlying operating performance. Intangible assets are
recognized as a result of historical merger and acquisition
transactions. We believe that recognized intangible assets by their
nature are fundamentally different from other depreciating assets
that are replaced on a predictable operating cycle. Unlike other
depreciating assets, such as developed and purchased software
licenses or property and equipment, there is no replacement cost
once these recognized intangible assets expire and the assets are
not replaced. Additionally, our costs to operate, maintain and
extend the life of acquired intangible assets and purchased
intellectual property are reflected in our operating costs as
personnel, data fees, facilities, overhead and similar items.
Management believes it is important for investors to understand
that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase
accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of
recognized intangible assets will recur in future periods until
such assets have been fully amortized. In addition, we isolate the
effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on our revenue growth
because we believe it is useful for investors to be able to compare
revenue from one period to another, both after and before the
effects of foreign exchange rate changes. The change in revenue
performance attributable to foreign currency rates is determined by
converting both our prior and current periods’ foreign currency
revenue by a constant rate. As a result, we monitor our revenue
growth both after and before the effects of foreign exchange rate
changes. We believe that these supplemental non-GAAP financial
measures provide management and other users with additional
meaningful financial information that should be considered when
assessing our ongoing performance and comparability of our
operating results from period to period. Our management regularly
uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to
understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating
decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the factors management
uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP
financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an
alternative to our reported results prepared in accordance with
GAAP.
Our non-GAAP or adjusted financial measures reflect adjustments
based on the following items, as well as the related income
tax.
Organic Revenue
We define organic revenue as reported revenue before the effect
of foreign exchange excluding revenue from acquired businesses, if
applicable, for the first twelve months. In addition, organic
revenue excludes current and prior year revenue associated with
divested businesses, if applicable. We believe the organic measure
provides investors and analysts with useful supplemental
information regarding the Company’s underlying revenue trends by
excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to
Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. excluding the following
items:
- depreciation and amortization;
- interest expense and income;
- income tax benefit or provision;
- other non-operating expenses or income;
- equity in net income of affiliates;
- net income attributable to non-controlling interests;
- equity-based compensation;
- restructuring charges;
- merger, acquisition and divestiture-related operating
costs;
- transition costs primarily consisting of non-recurring expenses
associated with investments to transform our technology and
back-office infrastructure, including investment in the
architecture of our technology platforms and cloud-focused
infrastructure. The transformation efforts require us to dedicate
separate resources in order to develop the new cloud-based
infrastructure in parallel with our current environment. These
costs, as well as other expenses associated with transformational
activities, are incremental and redundant costs that will not recur
after we achieve our objectives and are not representative of our
underlying operating performance. We believe that excluding these
costs from our non-GAAP measures provides a better reflection of
our ongoing cost structure; and
- other adjustments include non-recurring charges such as legal
expense associated with significant legal and regulatory matters
and impairment charges.
We calculate adjusted EBITDA margin by dividing adjusted EBITDA
by revenue.
Adjusted Net Income
We define adjusted net income as net income (loss) attributable
to Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. adjusted for the following
items:
- incremental amortization resulting from the application of
purchase accounting. We exclude amortization of recognized
intangible assets resulting from the application of purchase
accounting because it is non-cash and is not indicative of our
ongoing and underlying operating performance. The Company believes
that recognized intangible assets by their nature are fundamentally
different from other depreciating assets that are replaced on a
predictable operating cycle. Unlike other depreciating assets, such
as developed and purchased software licenses or property and
equipment, there is no replacement cost once these recognized
intangible assets expire and the assets are not replaced.
Additionally, the Company’s costs to operate, maintain and extend
the life of acquired intangible assets and purchased intellectual
property are reflected in the Company’s operating costs as
personnel, data fees, facilities, overhead and similar items;
- equity-based compensation;
- restructuring charges;
- merger, acquisition and divestiture-related operating
costs;
- transition costs primarily consisting of non-recurring expenses
associated with investments to transform our technology and
back-office infrastructure, including investment in the
architecture of our technology platforms and cloud-focused
infrastructure. The transformation efforts require us to dedicate
separate resources in order to develop the new cloud-based
infrastructure in parallel with our current environment. These
costs, as well as other expenses associated with transformational
activities, are incremental and redundant costs that will not recur
after we achieve our objectives and are not representative of our
underlying operating performance. We believe that excluding these
costs from our non-GAAP measures provides a better reflection of
our ongoing cost structure;
- merger, acquisition and divestiture-related non-operating
costs;
- debt refinancing and extinguishment costs;
- non-operating pension-related income (expenses) includes
certain costs and income associated with our pension and
postretirement plans, consisting of interest cost, expected return
on plan assets and amortized actuarial gains or losses, prior
service credits and if applicable, plan settlement charges. These
adjustments are non-cash and market-driven, primarily due to the
changes in the value of pension plan assets and liabilities which
are tied to financial market performance and conditions;
- non-cash gain and loss resulting from the modification of our
interest rate swaps;
- other adjustments include non-recurring charges such as legal
expense associated with significant legal and regulatory matters
and impairment charges;
- tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments; and
- other tax effect adjustments related to the tax impact of
statutory tax rate changes on deferred taxes and other discrete
items.
Adjusted Net Earnings Per Diluted Share
We calculate adjusted net earnings per diluted share by dividing
adjusted net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of
common shares potentially issuable in connection with awards
outstanding under our stock incentive plan.
