Revenue: $548 million vs analyst estimates of $541.4 million (2% year-on-year decline, 1.2% beat) Adjusted EPS: $0.10 vs analyst estimates of $0.10 (in line) Adjusted EBITDA: $118 million vs analyst estimates of $115.4 million (21.5% margin, 2.3% beat) The company reconfirmed its revenue guidance for the full year of $2.35 billion at the midpoint Adjusted EPS guidance for Q2 CY2025 is $0.61 at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $0.11 EBITDA guidance for the full year is $632.5 million at the midpoint, above analyst estimates of $627.2 million Operating Margin: -1.5%, up from -7.2% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $2.88 billion Alight's first quarter results reflected management's focus on technology-driven service delivery and client retention, as highlighted by CEO Dave Guilmette. Guilmette emphasized progress in deploying Alight Worklife's AI-enabled features, including the new self-service leaves administration platform, which aims to simplify absence management for clients. The quarter also saw successful contract renewals with major clients such as Starbucks and US Foods, illustrating the company's push to reinforce its recurring revenue base. CFO Jeremy Heaton further attributed the results to operational improvements within Alight's service and implementation routines, noting that nearly 80% of clients now utilize some AI-driven functionality. While project revenues remained subdued due to macroeconomic caution and fewer merger-driven projects, management expressed confidence in the recurring model and highlighted a 30% expansion in the sales pipeline as an indicator of underlying demand. Looking ahead, Alight's outlook is shaped by ongoing investments in technology and a continued emphasis on operational efficiency. Management reaffirmed its annual guidance, citing high contract coverage and a robust renewal cycle as key underpinnings. Dave Guilmette stated, 'Our transformation initiatives are on track to deliver a better client experience, streamline processes and drive margin expansion.' However, the company remains watchful of market volatility, which could extend client decision timelines and influence discretionary project work. CFO Jeremy Heaton addressed this caution, noting that while the business model is stable, Alight is monitoring participant counts and project demand closely. The introduction of a 15-month restructuring program is expected to support operational improvements, with all associated costs and benefits factored into full-year expectations. Management attributed first quarter performance to stable recurring revenues, successful client renewals, and the execution of technology initiatives, while acknowledging continued caution in discretionary project work. Client renewals drive stability: Management highlighted the successful renewal of major clients, including Starbucks, Baxter, US Foods, and Otis Elevator Company, which helps reinforce the company's base of recurring revenue and supports future revenue visibility. AI and platform enhancements: The rollout of Alight's self-service leaves administration reporting platform, paired with AI-driven insights, was cited as a major innovation for simplifying absence management. Management noted only 10% penetration of this offering across its top 200 clients, indicating significant room for growth. Operational model improvements: The company is shifting from a solution-centric to a centers-of-excellence (COE) approach, standardizing implementation routines across products. This transition aims to reduce implementation costs and time-to-market for clients, supporting both efficiency gains and service consistency. Pipeline expansion amid macro caution: Alight reported a 30% increase in its sales pipeline, particularly in core administration, leave, and navigation solutions. Despite this, management acknowledged that increased market volatility can elongate client decision cycles, especially for discretionary projects. Service and customer care investments: Enhanced customer care initiatives led to a 12-point improvement in Net Promoter Score (NPS) for annual enrollment, reflecting efforts to improve the client experience and differentiate Alight's offerings in a competitive market. Alight's forward outlook is anchored by technology investments, operational restructuring, and the ongoing renewal cycle, with management closely monitoring macroeconomic trends and project demand. Technology transformation and AI adoption: Management believes that ongoing enhancements to the Alight Worklife platform, including AI-enabled reporting and automation, will drive better client outcomes and operational efficiencies, supporting margin expansion even if revenue growth is muted. Renewal cycle and contract coverage: With 92% of projected 2025 revenue already under contract, Alight's leadership expects continued stability from its recurring revenue base. The company's focus on retaining and expanding client relationships is seen as critical to achieving its full-year financial objectives. Macroeconomic and project revenue risks: Management remains cautious about the potential for delayed client decision-making and softness in discretionary project revenues due to market volatility. Additionally, exposure to financial market performance in the wealth business is small, but a protracted downturn could have a modest impact on fee income. Going forward, the StockStory team will be monitoring (1) continued progress on client renewals and expansion of Alight Worklife's AI-enabled features, (2) whether the increased sales pipeline translates into higher project revenue in the second half of the year, and (3) execution of operational restructuring and the resulting margin improvements. Developments in the macroeconomic environment and participant volumes will also be key areas of focus. Alight currently trades at a forward P/E ratio of 8.6×.

Alight Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alight, Inc. (NYSE: ALIT), a leading cloud-based human capital and technology-enabled services provider, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. 'Our first quarter performance met expectations and we are off to a strong start to the year,' said CEO Dave Guilmette. 'We continue to bolster our leading capabilities through a focus on client-centricity and delivering with excellence, including important advancements across our artificial intelligence and delivery initiatives. As our talented team navigates the evolving global environment, the mission-critical work of helping people access and utilize their benefits to remain healthy and financially secure is as important as ever.' Presentation of Results First Quarter 2025 Highlights (all comparisons are relative to first quarter 2024) Revenue decreased 2.0% to $548 million Gross profit of $171 million and gross profit margin of 31.2%, compared to $182 million and 32.6%, respectively, and adjusted gross profit of $200 million and adjusted gross profit margin of 36.5%, compared to $208 million and 37.2%, respectively Net loss improved to $17 million compared to net loss of $121 million Adjusted EBITDA improved to $118 million compared to $116 million Diluted earnings (loss) per share of $(0.03) compared to $(0.22), and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.10 compared to $0.10 per share New wins or expanded relationships with companies including US Foods, Markel and Delek Repurchased $20 million of common stock under existing share repurchase program Declared and paid a $0.04 per share dividend First Quarter 2025 Results Revenue decreased 2.0% to $548 million, as compared to $559 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to lower project revenue and net commercial activity. Recurring revenues were 94.9% of total revenue. Gross profit was $171 million, or 31.2% of revenue, compared to $182 million, or 32.6% of revenue in the prior year period. The change in gross profit was primarily due to lower revenue as noted above, partially offset by productivity savings. Selling, general and administrative expenses improved $42 million when compared to the prior year period. This was due to a reduction in compensation expenses primarily related to non-cash share-based awards, lower restructuring charges and lower professional fees incurred related to the sale and separation of the Payroll & Professional Services business. Interest expense of $22 million improved $9 million from the prior year period. Interest expense benefited from the repricing of the 2028 term loan and the $740 million debt pay down in the third quarter of 2024. The Company's loss from continuing operations before income tax benefit improved to $20 million compared to a loss from continuing operations before income tax benefit of $148 million in the prior year period. The improvement was primarily attributable to the non-operating fair value remeasurements of financial instruments and the tax receivable agreement, lower selling, general and administrative expenses, lower interest expense as a result of the debt pay down and other income recorded in conjunction with the transition services agreement entered into with the purchaser of the divested Payroll & Professional Services business. Balance Sheet Highlights As of March 31, 2025, the Company's cash and cash equivalents balance was $223 million, total debt was $2,019 million and total debt net of cash and cash equivalents was $1,796 million. Business Outlook 'We continue to benefit from a long-cycle recurring business model that has insulated us from short-term market swings as we already have 92% of projected 2025 revenue under contract. While we are not immune to the market impacts, we feel good about the operational levers within our control and have reaffirmed our outlook based on the resilience of our model and visibility today,' said Guilmette. The Company's reaffirmed 2025 outlook includes: Revenue of $2,318 million to $2,388 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $620 million to $645 million. Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.58 to $0.64. Free cash flow of $250 million to $285 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information The Company refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including: Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations, Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin. Please see below for additional information and for reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance our investors' and lenders' understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. This discussion is not meant to be considered in isolation, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations, which is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and intangible amortization adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations is defined as Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations divided by revenue. Both Adjusted EBITDA From Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA Margin From Continuing Operations are non-GAAP financial measures used by management and our stakeholders to provide useful supplemental information that enables a better comparison of our performance across periods as well as to evaluate our core operating performance. Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations, which is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for intangible amortization and the impact of certain non-cash items that we do not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance, is a non-GAAP financial measure used solely for the purpose of calculating Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations is defined as Adjusted Net Income From Continuing Operations divided by the adjusted weighted-average number of shares of Alight Inc. common stock, diluted. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share From Continuing Operations is used by us and our investors to evaluate our core operating performance and to benchmark our operating performance against our competitors. Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities net of capital expenditures. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to repay debt obligations, make strategic acquisitions and investments and for certain other activities such as dividends and stock repurchases. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as revenue less cost of services adjusted for depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by revenue. Management uses Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as key measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. We believe that presenting Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash expenses and allows a direct comparison between periods. Revenue Under Contract is an operational metric that represents management's estimate of anticipated revenue expected to be recognized in the period referenced based on available information that includes historical client contracting practices. The metric does not reflect potential future events such as unexpected client volume fluctuations, early contract terminations or early contract renewals. Our metric may differ from similar terms used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
