Altisource Announces First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

LUXEMBOURG, May 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (鈥淎ltisource鈥� or the 鈥淐ompany鈥�) (NASDAQ: ASPS), a leading provider and marketplace for the real estate and mortgage industries, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2025.

鈥淲e are pleased with our first quarter performance as we continue to drive year-over-year and sequential Service revenue and Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ growth primarily from the ramp of our Renovation Business, stronger foreclosure starts and sales wins.听 Compared to the first quarter of last year, we grew total Company service revenue by 11% to $40.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ by 14% to $5.3 million.听 Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ growth outpaced Service revenue growth from scale benefits and favorable revenue mix.听 In February 2025, we closed on an exchange and maturity extension transaction with our lenders, significantly strengthening our balance sheet and reducing interest expense,鈥� said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William B. Shepro.

Mr. Shepro further commented, 鈥淭o support longer term growth, we are focusing on accelerating the growth of certain of our businesses that we believe have tailwinds.听 Should loan delinquencies, foreclosure starts and foreclosure sales increase, we believe we are well positioned to benefit from stronger revenue and Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ growth in our largest and most profitable countercyclical businesses.鈥�

NON-GAAP MEASURES
(in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)

Adjusted operating income, pretax loss attributable to Altisource, adjusted pretax income (loss) attributable to Altisource, adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource, adjusted diluted loss per share, net cash used in operating activities less additions to premises and equipment, Adjusted EBITDA, Business Segments Adjusted EBITDA and net debt, which are presented elsewhere in this earnings release, are non-GAAP measures used by management, existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information to measure Altisource鈥檚 performance and do not purport to be alternatives to income (loss) from operations, loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests, net loss attributable to Altisource, diluted loss per share, net cash used in operating activities and long-term debt, including current portion, as measures of Altisource鈥檚 performance.听 We believe these measures are useful to management, existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information in evaluating operating profitability and cash flow generation more on the basis of continuing cost and cash flows as they exclude amortization expense related to acquisitions that occurred in prior periods and non-cash share-based compensation, as well as the effect of more significant non-operational items from earnings, cash flows from operating activities and long-term debt net of cash on-hand.听 We believe these measures are also useful in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management鈥檚 evaluation of business performance.听 Furthermore, we believe the exclusion of more significant non-operational items enables comparability to prior period performance and trend analysis.听 Specifically, management uses adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource to measure the on-going after tax performance of the Company because the measure adjusts for the after tax impact of more significant non-recurring items, amortization expense relating to prior acquisitions (some of which fluctuates with revenue from certain customers and some of which is amortized on a straight-line basis) and non-cash share-based compensation expense which can fluctuate based on vesting schedules, grant date timing and the value attributable to awards.听 We believe adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource is useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information because it provides an after-tax measure of Altisource鈥檚 on-going performance that enables these users to perform trend analysis using comparable data.听 Management uses adjusted diluted loss per share to further evaluate adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource while taking into account changes in the number of diluted shares over the comparable periods.听 We believe adjusted diluted loss per share is useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information because it also enables these users to evaluate adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource on a per share basis.听 Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure the Company鈥檚 overall performance and Business Segments Adjusted EBITDA to measure the segments overall performance (with the adjustments discussed earlier with regard to adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource) without regard to its capitalization (debt vs. equity) or its income taxes and to perform trend analysis of the Company鈥檚 performance over time.听 Our effective income tax rate can vary based on the jurisdictional mix of our income.听 Additionally, as the Company鈥檚 capital expenditures have significantly declined over time, it provides a measure for management to evaluate the Company鈥檚 performance without regard to prior capital expenditures.听 Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA as one of the measures in determining bonus compensation for certain employees.听 We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Business Segments Adjusted EBITDA are useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information for the same reasons that management finds the measure useful.听 Management uses net debt in evaluating the amount of debt the Company has that is in excess of cash and cash equivalents.听 We believe net debt is useful to existing shareholders, potential shareholders and other users of our financial information for the same reasons management finds the measure useful.

Altisource operates in several countries, including Luxembourg, India, the United States and Uruguay.听 The Company has differing effective tax rates in each country and these rates may change from year to year.听 In determining the tax effects related to the adjustments in calculating adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource and adjusted diluted loss per share, we use the tax rate in the country in which the adjustment applies or, if the adjustment is recognized in more than one country, we separate the adjustment by country, apply the relevant tax rate for each country to the applicable adjustment, and then sum the result to arrive at the total adjustment, net of tax.听 In 2019, the Company recognized a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets in Luxembourg.听 Accordingly, for 2025 and 2024, the Company has an effective tax rate of close to 0% in Luxembourg.

It is management鈥檚 intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance the understanding of Altisource鈥檚 GAAP financial information, and it should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.听 Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.听 The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies.听 The non-GAAP financial information should not be unduly relied upon.

Adjusted operating income is calculated by removing intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives and other from income (loss) from operations.听 Pretax loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing non-controlling interests from loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests.听 Adjusted pretax income (loss) attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing non-controlling interests, intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives and other and debt exchange transaction expenses from loss before income taxes and non-controlling interests.听 Adjusted net loss attributable to Altisource is calculated by removing intangible asset amortization expense (net of tax), share-based compensation expense (net of tax), cost of cost savings initiatives and other (net of tax), debt exchange transaction expenses (net of tax) and certain income tax related items from net loss attributable to Altisource.听 Adjusted diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Altisource after removing intangible asset amortization expense (net of tax), share-based compensation expense (net of tax), cost of cost savings initiatives and other (net of tax), debt exchange transaction expenses (net of tax) and certain income tax related items by the weighted average number of diluted shares.听 Net cash used in operating activities less additions to premises and equipment is calculated by removing additions to premises and equipment from net cash used in operating activities.听 Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing the income tax provision, interest expense (net of interest income), depreciation and amortization, intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives and other and debt exchange transaction expenses from net loss attributable to Altisource.听 Business Segments Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing non-controlling interests, interest expense (net of interest income), depreciation and amortization, intangible asset amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, cost of cost savings initiatives and other from income before income taxes and non-controlling interests.听 Net debt is calculated as long-term debt, including current portion, minus cash and cash equivalents.
