Business Wire
Expects Q4 2024 Revenue of $505 Million to
$515 Million
Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE: PBI), a technology-driven company that
provides SaaS shipping solutions, mailing innovation, and financial
services to clients around the world, today provided supplemental
detail around guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024, long-term
revenue considerations, and debt reduction and refinancing
efforts.
Q4 2024 Revenue Outlook
Detail
The Company announced updated guidance on November 7, 2024,
including a full-year revenue decline in a low-single-digit range
and a full-year Adjusted EBIT increase to $355 million to $360
million. For additional clarity, the Company’s revenue outlook for
the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 is in the range of $505
million to $515 million. The Company reported comparable revenue
for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023 of $526 million.
Because of the Global Ecommerce exit process, a majority of that
segment is now reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Prior periods have
been recast to conform to the current period’s presentation. The
remaining portion of the Global Ecommerce segment that did not
qualify for discontinued operations treatment is now reported in an
"Other" category. This category comprises (a) a profitable
continuing operation which generated third quarter 2024 revenue of
approximately $18.7 million and (b) unprofitable operations that
the Company is currently exiting, which collectively contributed
$1.6 million to third quarter 2024 revenue.
Long-Term Revenue
Considerations
Although the Company has not provided guidance for fiscal year
2025, it disclosed on November 7, 2024 that it expects SendTech to
continue experiencing minor revenue softness in the coming
quarters, largely in-line with the softness experienced in the
third quarter of 2024, due to factors that include the required
product migration to new IMI technology and a reduction in
equipment sales. The Company expects SendTech’s revenue to flatten
out by the start of fiscal year 2026, and it has identified
long-term opportunities for enterprise-wide revenue growth due to
SendTech’s expansion in the ecommerce shipping category and
Presort’s ability to increase roll-up acquisitions.
Debt Reduction and Refinancing
Progress
The Company also disclosed on November 7, 2024 that it is
evaluating options for reducing and refinancing debt. Through
focusing on paying off and refinancing high-cost debt, the Company
expects to reduce interest payments and free up capital for other
value-enhancing initiatives. Leadership expects to have an update
in the near term on this item.

The Company has also made available on its investor relations
website a detailed file showing prior financials on a recast basis
adjusted for the GEC exit.
