ROSEMONT, Ill., August 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Kanbay International, Inc. (Nasdaq: KBAY), a global management consulting, technology integration and development, and outsourcing firm, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Second Quarter 2006 Highlights
- Consolidated revenue of $105.8 million
- Kanbay, excluding Adjoined, generated revenue of $72.8 million, 14 percent sequential and 28% year-over-year revenue growth, respectively
- Third party revenue, excluding Adjoined, was $34.6 million, a 21 percent sequential increase
- Diluted EPS of $0.18 is net of $0.03 for employee stock compensation expense
- Integration of Adjoined Consulting running ahead of schedule
- A total of 35 new clients were added in the quarter
"We are exceptionally pleased with Kanbay's financial results for the second quarter," commented Raymond Spencer, Chairman and CEO of Kanbay. He continued: "We achieved this quarter's results based on strong execution and favorable market conditions within both pre-merger Kanbay and Adjoined Consulting's business models. We also made substantial progress integrating the organizations in a timely fashion.
"We have said repeatedly we would not take our eye off the ball and we believe these second quarter results are proof of our ability to execute our business plans while completing the bulk of integration tasks ahead of our original schedule," Spencer said.
Kanbay's third party revenue growth accelerated in the quarter due to strong demand within the financial services industry, notably the need to support and upgrade legacy systems and mission critical applications. Discretionary spending trends are also strong as the industry seeks to enhance revenue and increase operating efficiencies.
Spencer added: "We also had strong revenue trends at Adjoined, coupled with consistent execution, serving to drive solid operating results. Early revenue synergies are being realized and this is strong evidence of the strategic rationale for this transaction. We are very pleased with Adjoined, its current and future growth prospects.
"Our pipeline of existing and potential client opportunities is robust. The market is highly responsive to our approach which delivers highly efficient and domain-centered IT services and consulting solutions. We are excited about the fact we signed 35 new clients in the quarter, the largest number in our history," Spencer stated.
Financial Review
Bill Weissman, Kanbay's Chief Financial Officer, added, "We posted a strong quarter of growth across all service lines. Of the $105.8 million in consolidated revenue, $72.8 million was contributed by Kanbay, excluding the Adjoined acquisition, and this represents an increase of 14 percent sequentially and 28 percent year-over-year. Adjoined posted $33 million in revenues in the second quarter, a solid performance.
"We are particularly pleased with the growth of third party revenue in the second quarter. Kanbay third party revenue, before Adjoined, grew 21 percent sequentially in the second quarter. We experienced good growth across most of our existing client base and had 12 pre-merger Kanbay accounts performing at a platinum level, up from 9 in the first quarter."
Weissman added, "Our related party revenue from HSBC grew 9 percent sequentially and 29 percent year-over-year on a comparable basis, another quarter of strong performance.
"Diluted earnings per-share after stock compensation expense was $0.18 in the second quarter," Weissman added. "While Adjoined was earnings neutral in the quarter, after integration costs, amortization of intangibles and interest expense, it was dilutive to EPS by $0.03 due to additional shares outstanding following the transaction. Further, employee stock compensation expense decreased EPS by an additional $0.03 in the second quarter."
Kanbay's second quarter earnings per share before stock compensation expense and before the impact of the Adjoined acquisition was $0.24, which was consistent with the first quarter, despite salary increases and high visa costs, and compared to $0.19 in the second quarter of last year, a 26% increase.
Outlook and Guidance
Regarding the third quarter, Kanbay anticipates total consolidated revenues of at least $109 million in the third quarter. On a stand-alone basis, Kanbay should achieve revenue of approximately $75 million while Adjoined should contribute approximately $34 million in the third quarter. This outlook reflects not only continuing growth in the business but also the fact that projects at several accounts started sooner than anticipated in the second quarter.
Based on Kanbay's performance year-to-date and taking into account revenue synergies, the company is increasing full year consolidated revenue guidance from at least $385 million to at least $402 million.
In terms of earnings, on a consolidated basis, Kanbay is targeting third quarter 2006 EPS of $0.21 with a full year EPS of at least $0.81.
Raymond Spencer concluded: "We have moved quickly to integrate our organizations at multiple levels, including people and business processes. Our goal is to move rapidly to manage Kanbay as a fully integrated organization. Looking ahead, we feel highly confident that our early and successful integration is just beginning to bring the rewards all Kanbay stakeholders expect."
