First Quarter 2023 Summary(1)(2)(3)

  • Total reported sales of $2.1 billion, down 3% versus the prior year, primarily due to lower sales in its Office Depot consumer division, largely driven by 73 fewer retail locations in service compared to the prior year, as well as lower traffic; partially offset by stronger sales in its B2B distribution division, ODP Business Solutions
  • GAAP operating income of $95 million and net income from continuing operations of $72 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, versus $76 million and $55 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, respectively in the prior year
  • Adjusted operating income of $99 million, compared to $88 million in the first quarter of 2022; adjusted EBITDA of $131 million, compared to $125 million in the first quarter of 2022
  • Adjusted net income from continuing operations of $75 million, or adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.78, versus $64 million or $1.27, respectively in the prior year
  • Operating cash flow from continuing operations of $157 million and adjusted free cash flow of $133 million, versus $30 million and $16 million, respectively in the prior year
  • $1.1 billion of total available liquidity including $343 million in cash and cash equivalents at quarter end

“We are off to a terrific start to the year as our ongoing commitment to operational excellence and our capital allocation plan both continue to drive strong earnings per share growth and shareholder value," said Gerry Smith, chief executive officer of The ODP Corporation. "Our low-cost business model again positioned us to deliver strong operating results against an ongoing difficult macroeconomic backdrop plagued with high inflation and sluggish consumer activity. We improved most of our operational KPI's in the quarter, while continuing to execute on our $1 billion share repurchase authorization, buying back over $200 million of our shares during the quarter."

"We're making solid progress along the path we set during our investor day meeting, highlighted by driving organic growth at ODP Business Solutions, our $4 billion annual revenue B2B distribution business, and generating strong cash flow results in our consumer business, Office Depot. Our supply chain services provider, Veyer, made progress towards its 2023 goal of more than doubling its EBITDA from third party services, and our recently launched digital procurement business, Varis, continues to enhance its capabilities and add customers to its platform," he added.

“Moving ahead, we remain cautiously optimistic as we continue to navigate the challenging macroeconomic environment and its related negative impact on consumer activity. We remain in a position of strength, with a low-cost business model mindset, diverse routes to market, and a strong balance sheet. As we move through the year and monitor consumer activity, we will continue to prioritize capital allocation while prudently managing our four-business unit model, remaining focused on delivering strong shareholder returns,” Smith concluded.

Consolidated Results

Reported (GAAP) Results

Total reported sales for the first quarter of 2023 were $2.1 billion, a decrease of 3% compared with the same period last year. The Company’s ODP Business Solutions Division drove 3% top-line revenue growth in the first quarter of 2023 as more businesses returned to the office and as the division continued to execute upon its growth strategy. This was offset by lower sales at its Office Depot Division, primarily due to 73 fewer stores in service compared to last year related to planned store closures, as well as lower traffic. The Company drove strong sales across the majority of major product categories in its ODP Business Solutions Division, highlighted by strong sales of core supplies, furniture, and technology products. Additionally, Veyer provided strong logistics support for the ODP Business Solutions and Office Depot Divisions, and began to capture additional demand for its supply chain and procurement solutions among other third-party customers.

The Company reported operating income of $95 million in the first quarter of 2023, up 25% compared to operating income of $76 million in the prior year period. Operating results in the first quarter of 2023 included $4 million associated with non-cash asset impairment charges primarily related to the operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets associated with the Company’s retail store locations. Net income from continuing operations was $72 million, or $1.71 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2023, up from $55 million, or $1.09 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2022.

Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results(1)

Adjusted results for the first quarter of 2023 exclude charges and credits totaling $4 million as described above and the associated tax impacts.

  • First quarter of 2023 adjusted EBITDA was $131 million compared to $125 million in the prior year period. This included depreciation and amortization of $30 million and $34 million in the first quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively
  • First quarter of 2023 adjusted operating income was $99 million compared to $88 million in the first quarter of 2022
  • First quarter of 2023 adjusted net income from continuing operations was $75 million, or $1.78 per diluted share, compared to $64 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 40% on a per share basis.

Division Results

ODP Business Solutions Division

  • Leading B2B distribution solutions provider serving small, medium and enterprise level companies with an annual trailing-twelve-month revenue in excess of $4 billion
  • Reported sales were $1.0 billion in the first quarter of 2023, up 3% compared to the same period last year, as flexible pricing strategies and return to the office trends helped to drive strong sales in core and adjacency products
  • Drove strong sales across core supply categories, breakroom, furniture, technology, and copy and print
  • Total adjacency category sales, including cleaning and breakroom, furniture, technology, and copy and print, were 44% of total ODP Business Solutions’ sales
  • Operating income was $39 million in the first quarter of 2023, up 105% over the same period last year, related to the flow through impact of higher sales and gross margins. As a percentage of sales, operating income was 4%, or up approximately 200 basis points compared to the same period last year

Office Depot Division

  • Leading provider of retail consumer and small business products and services distributed via Office Depot and OfficeMax retail locations and an award-winning eCommerce presence
  • Reported sales were $1.1 billion in the first quarter of 2023, down 8% compared to the prior year period partially due to 73 fewer retail outlets in service associated with planned store closures, as well as lower demand relative to last year in certain product categories and lower online sales. The Company closed 21 retail stores in the quarter and had 959 stores at quarter end. Sales were down approximately 3% on a comparable store basis
  • Store traffic and demand relative to last year was negatively impacted by the recovery from the pandemic as a greater percentage of customers returned to the office
  • Operating income was $85 million in the first quarter of 2023, down 11% over the same period last year. As a percentage of sales, operating income was 8%, flat as compared to the same period last year. This result was primarily driven by lower sales and impacts related to inflation

Veyer Division

  • Veyer is a supply chain, distribution, procurement and global sourcing operation, supporting Office Depot and ODP Business Solutions, as well as other third-party customers. Assets and capabilities of Veyer include approximately 9 million square feet of infrastructure; ~100 facilities (distribution centers, cross-docks, and direct import centers); approximately 600 private fleet vehicles; and next-day delivery to 98.5% of US population
  • In the first quarter, Veyer provided strong support for its internal customers, ODP Business Solutions and Office Depot, as well as for its third-party customers, generating sales of $1.4 billion
  • Operating income was $15 million in the first quarter of 2023, up from $8 million in the prior year period due to higher product initial gross margins and lower shrink
  • In the quarter relative to last year, sales and EBITDA generated from third party customers were up over 50% and nearly 100%, respectively, resulting in sales of approximately $7 million and EBITDA of $2 million

Varis Division

  • Varis is a tech-enabled B2B indirect procurement marketplace launched in the fourth quarter of 2022, which provides buyers and suppliers a seamless way to transact through the platform’s consumer-like buying experience and advanced spend management tools
  • Successfully launched the platform in the fourth quarter of 2022; Ramping first wave of customers and driving transaction volume to Varis suppliers during the first quarter
  • Varis generated revenues in the quarter of $2 million and an operating loss of $17 million

Share Repurchases

The Company continued to execute under its previously announced $1 billion share repurchase authorization, available through year-end 2025. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 4 million shares for $202 million. Since the inception of the authorization beginning in November 2022, the Company has repurchased approximately 7.6 million shares for $354 million.

The number of shares to be repurchased in the future and the timing of such transactions will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations. The current authorization could be suspended or discontinued at any time as determined by the Board of Directors.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of April 1, 2023, ODP had total available liquidity of approximately $1.1 billion, consisting of $343 million in cash and cash equivalents and $803 million of available credit under the Third Amended Credit Agreement. Total debt was $222 million.

For the first quarter of 2023, cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $157 million, which included $5 million in restructuring and other spend, compared to cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations of $30 million in the first quarter of the prior year, which included $7 million in restructuring and other spend. The year-over-year change in operating cash flow largely related to stronger operating results and timing of working capital items.

Capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2023 were $27 million versus $21 million in the prior year period, reflecting continuing growth investments in the Company’s digital transformation, distribution network, and eCommerce capabilities. Operating cash flow from continuing operations was $157 million in the first quarter of 2023 and Adjusted Free Cash Flow(3) was $133 million in the first quarter of 2023, a significant increase compared to $16 million in the prior year period.

“We continue to be laser focused on managing our working capital and driving cash flow,” said Anthony Scaglione, executive vice president and chief financial officer of The ODP Corporation. “Our cash generation in the quarter was a result of our overall stronger operating performance and the timing of certain working capital items. As we move throughout the balance of the year, we will remain disciplined as we manage through the seasonal effects on cash in our business and focused on navigating the continued challenging macroeconomic environment and its potential impact on consumer activity.”

2023 Expectations

“We're enthusiastic about the opportunities ahead to pursue long-term profitable growth by driving our four business unit model, executing along our three horizons strategy, expanding our product offerings and remaining focused on prudently deploying capital to maximize shareholder value,” said Smith. “By executing our long-term strategy, we’re on a path to unlocking ODP's potential and creating a compelling value proposition for all of our stakeholders.”

The Company’s full year guidance for 2023 included in this release includes non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. These measures exclude charges or credits not indicative of core operations, which may include but not be limited to merger integration expenses, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, executive transition costs, asset impairments and other significant items that currently cannot be predicted without unreasonable efforts. The exact amount of these charges or credits are not currently determinable but may be significant. Accordingly, the Company is unable to provide equivalent GAAP measures or reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP for these financial measures.

The Company’s full year guidance for 2023 remains as follows:

Sales

$8.0 - $8.4 billion

Adjusted EBITDA

$400 - $430 million

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted Earnings per Share(*)

*Adjusted Earnings per Share (EPS) guidance for 2023 excludes potential discrete (tax) items that may affect quarter to quarter fluctuations and includes expected impact from share repurchases

**Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures excluding cash charges associated with the Company’s Maximize B2B Restructuring and expenses incurred in connection with our previously planned separation of the consumer business and re-alignment

“Our guidance assumes stabilization in overall economic trends throughout 2023. While we are encouraged by our strong start to the year, we are prudently reaffirming current guidance as we remain cautious on the state of the consumer and general macroeconomic conditions,” said Scaglione.

THE ODP CORPORATION

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations

(Unaudited)

We report our results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). We also review certain financial measures excluding impacts of transactions that are not related to our core operations (“non-GAAP”). Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the ability of its investors to analyze trends in its business and provides a means to compare periods that may be affected by various items that might obscure trends or developments in its business. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures to assist in making business decisions and assessing overall performance. Non-GAAP measures help to evaluate programs and activities that are intended to attract and satisfy customers, separate from expenses and credits directly associated with Merger, restructuring, and certain similar items. Certain non-GAAP measures are also used for short and long-term incentive programs.

Our measurement of these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from similarly titled financial measures used by others and therefore may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to the GAAP measures, but only to clarify some information and assist the reader. We have included reconciliations of this information to the most comparable GAAP measures in the tables included within this material.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is an important indicator that provides additional perspective on our ability to generate cash to fund our strategy and expand our distribution network. Adjusted free cash flow is also a non-GAAP measure, which we define as free cash flow excluding cash charges associated with the Company’s Maximize B2B Restructuring, and the previously planned separation of the consumer business and re-alignment.
