BUFFALO, N.Y., Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CTG (Nasdaq: CTG) (“Company”), a leader in North America and Western Europe helping companies employ digital IT solutions and services to drive their productivity and profitability, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 29, 2023.

Filip Gydé, CTG President and CEO, commented, “We continue to be pleased with the execution of our strategy where our gross margin improved 300 basis points in the third quarter compared with 2022, despite high inflation and a softening demand for IT services, and lower utilization generally incurred during the summer months.”

Mr. Gydé continued, “Regarding the acquisition of CTG by Cegeka, we have found a partner that will enable us to accelerate providing digital transformation services to our clients and are confident that this transaction with Cegeka is the best outcome for our clients, employees, and shareholders. We are pleased to have entered into this transaction with Cegeka, and we are working diligently with them through the regulatory approval processes to complete the sale. As such, although there is no certainty, given the expiration of the tender offer has been extended to December 12, 2023, we expect the sale of CTG to Cegeka to close on December 13, 2023."

* A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP information is included in the financial tables below

• The decrease in revenue reflects the Company’s continued business mix shift to more solutions and services-based business. As compared with the third quarter of 2022, the Company disengaged from $11.8 million in its lower-margin non-strategic technology services business.
• The change in business mix and focus on digital solutions has led to significant improvements in gross margin over the past two years, increasing 490 basis points over that time.
• As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were 28.2% compared with 21.3% in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to increases in non-recurring costs related to the acquisition of CTG by Cegeka, acquisition-related expenses from the Eleviant acquisition, and costs associated with the new ERP implementation.
• Included in the GAAP net loss was $1.6 million of non-recurring costs related to certain strategic initiatives, $0.5 million of acquisition-related expenses, and $0.4 million of ERP system implementation costs, while the prior-year period included $0.5 million of acquisition-related expenses. Loss per diluted share was ($0.06) for the third quarter of 2023 compared with income of $0.07 for the third quarter of 2022. Excluding these expenses from both periods, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.11 in both periods.

Successfully Executing Strategy

CTG is a catalyst for digital transformation, helping IT and business leaders accelerate integration of digital technology into all areas of their operations to improve productivity, strengthen business processes, elevate internal controls, and increase value delivery to their customers. CTG’s strategy for growth is its transformation into a higher-performing, digital solutions-based business. The three key elements of its strategy are:

• Becoming a global provider of digital IT solutions by capitalizing on the compelling digital transformation trend, leveraging the CTG brand built on reliability and results, and delivering solutions primarily to the energy, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing sectors.
• Growing the team organically by adding highly qualified and experienced associates, employing innovative tools and methodologies, and making selective acquisitions.

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Information

The Company has referenced non-GAAP information in this news release. The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to investors and management to gain an overall understanding of its current financial performance and prospects. In addition, management uses non-GAAP financial measures for forecasting, facilitating ongoing operating decisions, and measuring the Company’s overall performance. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures align closely with its internal measurement processes and reflect the Company’s core operating results.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP information is included in the financial tables below. The non-GAAP financial information is presented using a consistent methodology from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP financial measures. As such, the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for or superior to financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release should be carefully evaluated.
