Financial Highlights - Fourth Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022

Revenue was $4.01 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, down 8.6% as compared to prior year period, and down 2.8% on an organic basis. Fourth quarter revenues came in below the previous guidance range, as the strengthening of the U.S. dollar reduced fourth quarter fiscal year 2022 revenues by $52 million as compared to the currency rates used in our prior earnings guidance. Management estimates that Russia's invasion of Ukraine, exiting our Russian business, and the associated distraction accounted for the majority of the organic revenue miss to guidance.

Net income was $539 million, or 13.4% of sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $(804) million, or (18.3)% of sales, in the prior year quarter. EBIT was $828 million or 20.7% of sales. Net income and EBIT in the quarter included the following items: amortization of acquired intangible assets of $109 million, restructuring costs of $70 million, mark-to-market pension gain of $691 million, loss on disposition of $2 million, asset impairment loss of $21 million, and transaction, separation, and integration costs of $3 million. Excluding these items, Adjusted EBIT margin was 8.5% in the fourth quarter, an improvement of 100 bps as compared to the prior year quarter. Fourth quarter adjusted EBIT margin was reduced by $16 million of expenses, or 40 basis points, related to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Diluted earnings per share was $2.14 and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.84 for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, driven by the improvement in margins, lower interest expense, and lower shares outstanding. Non-GAAP earnings per share fell below the Company's previous guidance range due to $0.04 per share of incremental costs related to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, $0.07 of headwinds related to higher than expected tax expense due to the write down of a deferred tax asset, and an incremental $0.06 in higher European energy costs that we were not able to pass on to customers.

Book-to-bill for the quarter was 1.20x.  Over the trailing four quarters, the company delivered a book to bill of 1.11x.

During the fourth quarter, the Company repurchased 8.2 million shares of common stock for a total of $271 million.  For the full fiscal year 2022, the company repurchased 18.8 million shares for a total of $634 million.

Ukraine / Russia Update

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, DXC exited its domestic Russian business. This action achieves a significant portion of our commitment to exit Russia. The sale of this business has provided continuing employment opportunities for many former DXC employees who have chosen to stay in Russia. The exit of this market will reduce revenues by approximately $140 million annually. The company is transitioning global business previously serviced by our DXC Russian colleagues to international teams and expects to complete this process by the end of the second quarter.

DXC's Ukraine business supported approximately $250 million of revenue, predominantly serving international customers. Despite the ongoing conflict, these revenues have only seen a minor impact stemming from the conflict. Our global teams have worked to augment their Ukrainian colleagues, and to continue to deliver for our customers through the conflict.

During the fourth quarter, DXC spent approximately $16 million related to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

* Pension benefit is split between Cost Of Sales (COS) & Other Income:

Fiscal year 2023: $80 million service cost in COS, $280 million pension benefit in Other income
Fiscal year 2022: $88 million service cost in COS, $386 million pension benefit in Other income

The Company reaffirmed its longer-term guidance:

  • Positive organic revenue growth of 1% to 3% for fiscal year 2024
  • Adjusted EBIT margin of 10% to 11% in fiscal year 2024
  • Non-GAAP diluted Earnings Per Share of $5.00 to $5.25 in fiscal year 2024
  • Free cash flow of approximately $1.5 billion in fiscal year 2024
  • Restructuring and TSI of approximately $100 million in fiscal year 2024

DXC does not provide a reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures that it discusses as part of its guidance because certain significant information required for such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts or at all, including, most notably, the impact of significant non-recurring items. Without this information, DXC does not believe that a reconciliation would be meaningful.

Ken Sharp, Chief Financial Officer, commented: "In FY22, we made excellent progress in building our financial foundation. We significantly lowered our debt and related interest expense, substantially reduced restructuring, transaction, separation and integration expenses, and lowered capital expenditures, capital lease originations and our facility footprint. These initiatives, and the ongoing strong business execution of our DXC colleagues, allowed us to deliver a $1.4 billion improvement in free cash flow over FY21. We continue to execute on our capital deployment program, repurchasing 18.8 million shares during the year, and expect to complete our $1 billion repurchase commitment over the next three quarters. We look forward to the opportunities presented by FY23 and expect to continue our steady progress on the transformation journey."

Forward-looking statements often include words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecast," "goal," "intends," "objective," "plans," "projects," "strategy," "target," and "will" and words and terms of similar substance in discussions of future operating or financial performance. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements with respect to our future financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, divestitures, competitive position, growth opportunities, share repurchases, dividend payments, plans and objectives of management and other matters.

These statements represent current expectations and beliefs, and no assurance can be given that the results described in such statements will be achieved. Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such statements, many of which are outside of our control. Furthermore, many of these risks and uncertainties are currently amplified by and may continue to be amplified by or may, in the future, be amplified by, the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic and the impact of varying private and governmental responses that affect our customers, employees, vendors and the economies and communities where they operate. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the uncertainty of the magnitude, duration, geographic reach of the COVID-19 crisis, its impact on the global economy and the impact of current and potential travel restrictions, stay-at-home orders, vaccine mandates and economic restrictions implemented to address the crisis; our inability to succeed in our strategic objectives; the risk of liability or damage to our reputation resulting from security incidents, including breaches, and cyber-attacks to our systems and networks and those of our business partners, insider threats, disclosure of sensitive data or failure to comply with data protection laws and regulations in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment, in each case, whether deliberate or accidental; our inability to develop and expand our service offerings to address emerging business demands and technological trends, including our inability to sell differentiated services up the Enterprise Technology Stack; our inability to compete in certain markets and expand our capacity in certain offshore locations and risks associated with such offshore locations such as Russia's recent invasion of Ukraine and our exit from the Russian market; failure to maintain our credit rating and ability to manage working capital, refinance and raise additional capital for future needs; our indebtedness; the competitive pressures faced by our business; our inability to accurately estimate the cost of services, and the completion timeline of contracts; execution risks by us and our suppliers, customers, and partners; the risks associated with natural disasters; our inability to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with key partners; the risks associated with prolonged periods of inflation; the risks associated with our international operations, such as risks related to currency exchange rates and Brexit; our inability to comply with governmental regulations or the adoption of new laws or regulations, including social and environmental responsibility regulations, policies and provisions; our inability to achieve the expected benefits of our restructuring plans; inadvertent infringement of third-party intellectual property rights or our inability to protect our own intellectual property assets; our inability to procure third-party licenses required for the operation of our products and service offerings; risks associated with disruption of our supply chain; our inability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; potential losses due to asset impairment charges; our inability to pay dividends or repurchase shares of our common stock; pending investigations, claims and disputes and any adverse impact on our profitability and liquidity; disruptions in the credit markets, including disruptions that reduce our customers' access to credit and increase the costs to our customers of obtaining credit; our failure to bid on projects effectively; financial difficulties of our customers and our inability to collect receivables; our inability to maintain and grow our customer relationships over time and to comply with customer contracts or government contracting regulations or requirements; our inability to succeed in our strategic transactions; changes in tax laws and any adverse impact on our effective tax rate; risks following the merger of Computer Sciences Corporation and Enterprise Services business of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company's businesses, including anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities and future capital expenditures; and risks following the spin-off of our former U.S. Public Sector business and its related mergers with Vencore Holding Corp. and KeyPoint Government Solutions in June 2018 to form Perspecta Inc., which was acquired by Peraton in May 2021. For a written description of these factors, see the section titled "Risk Factors" in DXC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, and any updating information in subsequent SEC filings, including DXC's upcoming Annual Report on Form 10-K for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022.

No assurance can be given that any goal or plan set forth in any forward-looking statement can or will be achieved, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements which speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake any obligation to update or release any revisions to any forward-looking statement or to report any events or circumstances after the date of this press release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by law.

About Non-GAAP Measures

In an effort to provide investors with supplemental financial information, in addition to the preliminary and unaudited financial information presented on a GAAP basis, we have also disclosed in this press release preliminary Non-GAAP information including: earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT"), EBIT margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, Non-GAAP diluted EPS, organic revenues, organic revenue growth, and free cash flow.

We believe EBIT, EBIT margin, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, and Non-GAAP diluted EPS provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance after excluding certain categories of expenses. Free cash flow represents cash flow from operations, less capital expenditures.

One category of expenses excluded from Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, and Non-GAAP diluted EPS, incremental amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, may result in a significant difference in period over period amortization expense on a GAAP basis. We exclude amortization of certain acquired intangible assets as these non-cash amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Although DXC management excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets primarily customer-related intangible assets, from its Non-GAAP expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and support revenue generation. Any future transactions may result in a change to the acquired intangible asset balances and associated amortization expense.

Another category of expenses excluded from Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT margin, and Non-GAAP diluted EPS, impairment losses, may result in a significant difference in period over period expense on a GAAP basis. We exclude impairment losses as these non-cash amounts, reflect generally an acceleration of what would be multiple periods of expense and do not expect to occur frequently. Further assets such as goodwill may be significantly impacted by market conditions outside of management's control.

We believe organic revenue growth provides investors with useful supplemental information about our revenues after excluding the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations for currencies other than U.S. dollars and the effects of acquisitions and divestitures in the periods presented. See below for a description of the methodology we use to present organic revenues.

Selected references are made to revenue growth on an "organic basis" so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates and without the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures from "organic basis" financial results, thereby providing comparisons of operating performance from period to period of the business that we have owned during all periods presented. Organic revenue growth is calculated by dividing the year-over-year change in GAAP revenues attributed to organic growth by the GAAP revenues reported in the prior comparable period. This approach is used for all results where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.

There are limitations to the use of the Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. One of the limitations is that they do not reflect complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our Non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes between companies.

Segment Profit

We define segment profit as segment revenues less costs of services, segment selling, general and administrative, depreciation and amortization, and other income (excluding the movement in foreign currency exchange rates on our foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and the related economic hedges). The Company does not allocate to its segments certain operating expenses managed at the corporate level. These unallocated costs include certain corporate function costs, stock-based compensation expense, pension and other post-retirement benefits ("OPEB") actuarial and settlement gains and losses, restructuring costs, transaction, separation and integration-related costs, and amortization of acquired intangible assets.

  • Amortization of acquired intangible assets – includes amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations.
  • Gains and losses on dispositions – gains and losses related to dispositions of businesses, strategic assets and interests in less than wholly-owned entities.(2)
  • Impairment losses – impairment losses on assets classified as long-term on the balance sheet.(3)
