RESTON, Va., Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ICF (NASDAQ: ICFI), a global consulting and technology services provider, reported results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Commenting on the results, John Wasson, chair and chief executive officer, said, "Fourth quarter results represented a solid finish to a year of double-digit revenue growth for ICF, which demonstrated the benefits of our expanded capabilities in key growth markets and the strength of our diversified business model. Revenues increased 1% year-on-year. Adjusting for the divestiture of our commercial marketing business lines during 2023, fourth quarter revenue increased 5% year-on-year, led by strong growth in revenues from commercial energy clients and our state and local and international government clients. U.S. federal government fourth quarter revenue was approximately flat with the prior year due to a $5.3 million reduction in subcontractor and other direct costs together with the anticipated roll-off of certain small business contracts held by companies we acquired. We expect year-on-year federal government revenue comparisons to increase substantially in the second half of 2024 and grow at a high single-digit rate for full year 2024.
"Full year 2023 revenue increased 10%, or by over 12% after adjusting for the divestitures, reflecting double-digit growth in revenues from both government and commercial clients. This performance was led by our growth markets, which in the aggregate accounted for approximately 80% of 2023 full year revenues from continuing operations, up from approximately 75% in 2022.
"We continued to increase profitability in the fourth quarter and full year, expanding adjusted EBITDA margin by 30 basis points and 10 basis points, respectively. This progress reflected the positive impact of higher utilization and our actions to reduce facility costs, along with the benefits of ICF's greater scale.
"This also was another year of substantial contract awards, which reached $2.3 billion. Approximately 70% of 2023's contract wins represented new business, underscoring ICF's strong competitive positioning in areas of high demand from government and commercial clients. At year end, our business development pipeline was a robust $9.7 billion, providing a substantial runway for future growth."
Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
Fourth quarter 2023 total revenue was $478.4 million, similar to the $475.6 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2022 and up 4.9% from last year's fourth quarter revenues adjusted for the divestitures.

Summary and Outlook
"2023 represented a year of significant accomplishments for ICF. In addition to our strong financial performance, we completed the integration of SemanticBits, streamlined our business through the divestiture of our commercial marketing business and supported our key growth markets by adding new competencies in the fast-growing area of grid modernization and electrical engineering. We used our substantial operating cash flow to repay debt, ending the year with a net debt to EBITDA ratio of under 2.2. This gives us additional flexibility to execute our acquisition growth strategy, which has been a key element of the company's success to date. ICF exited 2023 with a strengthened business and financial posture, positioning us for continued strong growth in 2024.
"Based on our strong backlog and current visibility, and the ongoing positive trends in our key growth markets, we expect 2024 organic revenues from continuing operations to range from $2.03 billion to $2.10 billion, representing year-on-year growth of 5.2% at the midpoint when compared to reported 2023 and 8.5% at the midpoint on continuing operations. EBITDA is expected to range from $220 million to $230 million, reflecting year-on-year growth of 14.2% at the midpoint. Our guidance range for GAAP EPS is $5.25 to $5.55, excluding special charges, and for Non-GAAP EPS is $6.60 to $6.90. Assuming similar margins to the rest of the business, the company's commercial marketing business lines are estimated to have contributed $0.20 of Non-GAAP EPS in 2023, which will not recur in 2024. We expect full year 2024 operating cash flow of approximately $155 million.
"We are proud of the many recognitions that ICF received in 2023. Listed above, they are emblematic of our culture of inclusion, merit-based promotions and commitment to climate change, and highlight ICF's deep domain expertise in energy and environment, public health and life sciences and sustainability. As we move ahead into 2024, we remain committed to maintaining the outstanding corporate culture that has been integral to our success," Mr. Wasson concluded.

Caution Concerning Forward-looking Statements
Statements that are not historical facts and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements may concern our current expectations about our future results, plans, operations and prospects and involve certain risks, including those related to the government contracting industry generally; our particular business, including our dependence on contracts with U.S. federal government agencies; and our ability to acquire and successfully integrate businesses. These and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in forward-looking statements that are included in the "Risk Factors" section of our securities filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements included herein are only made as of the date hereof, and we specifically disclaim any obligation to update these statements in the future.
Note on Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
The company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, due to the variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections and because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures (such as the effect of share-based compensation or the impact of future extraordinary or non-recurring events like acquisitions) is available to the company without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, the company is unable to estimate the probable significance of the unavailable information. The company provides forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures that it believes will be achievable, but it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted calculations, and the U.S. GAAP financial measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP financial measures.

(2) These tables provide reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most applicable GAAP numbers. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may define
similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently and, accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how we define these measures.
(3) Revenue from the exited U.K. commercial marketing business (June 30, 2023), U.S. commercial marketing business (September 11, 2023), and Canadian mobile text aggregation business (November 1, 2023).
(4) Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS were calculated using numbers as reported in U.S. GAAP.
(5) Represents impairment of operating lease right-of-use and leasehold improvement assets associated with exit from certain facilities, and an intangible asset associated with exit of a business.
(6) These are primarily third-party costs related to acquisitions and potential acquisitions, integration of acquisitions, and separation of discontinued businesses or divestitures.
(7) These costs are mainly due to involuntary employee termination benefits for our officers, and employees who have been notified that they will be terminated as part of a business reorganization or exit.
(8) These are exit costs associated with terminated leases or full office closures that we either (i) will continue to pay until the contractual obligations are satisfied but with no economic benefit to us, or (ii) paid upon termination and cease-use of the leased facilities.
(9) These costs represent incremental non-cash lease expense associated with a straight-line rent accrual during the "free rent" period in the lease for our new corporate headquarters in Reston, Virginia. We took possession of the new facility during the fourth quarter of 2021, while also maintaining and incurring lease costs for the former headquarters in Fairfax, Virginia.
The transition to the new corporate headquarters was completed in the fourth quarter of 2022.
(10) These costs include legal and structuring fees related to our 2022 Master Receivables Purchase Agreement with MUFG Bank, Ltd. put in place for the sale of our receivables.
(11) Includes pre-tax gain of $2.5 million and of $3.2 million from the divestitures of our U.S. commercial marketing and Canadian mobile text aggregation businesses.
(12) Net Margin Percent on Revenue was calculated by dividing net income by revenue.
(13) EBITDA Margin Percent and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Percent on Revenue were calculated by dividing the non-GAAP measure by the corresponding revenue.
(14) These are exit costs related to actual office closures (previously included in Adjusted EBITDA) and accelerated depreciation related to fixed assets for planned office closures.
(15) Income tax effects were calculated using the effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, of 21.1% and 25.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 22.8% and 28.0% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
