Navigant Reports Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results and Declares Dividend

  • CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Navigant (NYSE: NCI) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 and declared a quarterly dividend. Third quarter 2018 highlights: Revenues and revenues before reimbursements (RBR) were $187.6 and $171.4 million respectively, up 1% and 4% compared to third quarter 2017 Net income of $74.0 million, which includes results from discontinued operations, was up $62.1 million compared to the prior year period largely due to a gain recognized on the divestiture of the Company’s DFLT and Transaction Advisory businesses (SaleCo divestiture); Net income from continuing operations of $6.8 million, or $0.15 per share, was up $1.0 million from the prior year period Adjusted Earnings per Share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.15 increased $0.01 compared to third quarter 2017 Repurchased $36.6 million of common stock through expanded share repurchase plan and initiated first-ever quarterly dividend Management reaffirms its 2018 financial outlook for continuing operations as previously provided in conjunction with its second quarter 2018 earnings release Dividend declaration: The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share of common stock. This dividend will be payable on December 14, 2018 to shareholders of record on November 30, 2018. “Our overall third quarter results were in line with expectations, with top-line growth benefiting most notably from continued robust performance in our Energy segment, steady demand in our FSAC segment and contribution from the smooth start-up of our HSS joint-venture with Baptist Health South Florida,” said Julie Howard, chairman and CEO of Navigant. “We are pleased to affirm our 2018 continuing operations guidance targets.” Howard continued, “Also in the quarter, with the closing of the SaleCo divestiture, we made meaningful progress toward our goal of returning up to $175 million to shareholders with the initiation of our first-ever quarterly dividend and the repurchase of over $36 million of our common stock. We are excited about the business going forward and believe our post-divestiture positioning, as a specialized management consulting and managed services business serving industries experiencing significant business model transformation, enhances our ability to maximize value for all stakeholders.” THIRD QUARTER 2018 FINANCIAL RESULTS Increase / (Decrease) Navigant reported third quarter 2018 revenues and RBR of $187.6 million and $171.4 million respectively, up 1% and 4% compared to the third quarter 2017. The quarter benefited from the start-up of the Health System Solutions (HSS) joint-venture and continued robust demand in the Energy segment which helped to offset some softness in Healthcare consulting. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for third quarter 2018 was $17.5 million, down 7% from the prior year period as higher RBR in each segment and lower bad debt expense was more than offset by higher costs related to the maintenance of resources in Healthcare consulting and headcount and technology investments in the Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment. Third quarter 2018 net income of $74.0 million, which includes results from discontinued operations, was up $62.1 million compared to third quarter 2017 largely due to a $60.2 million after-tax gain recognized in discontinued operations for the SaleCo divestiture. Net income from continuing operations of $6.8 million was up $1.0 million compared to the third quarter 2017 driven by the lapping of a contingent consideration adjustment in the prior year period, lower net interest costs in the current year period, as well as the impact of the operating items discussed above. Third quarter 2018 Adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $0.15 was up $0.01 compared to the third quarter 2017 aided by a lower share count in the current year period. THIRD QUARTER 2018 SEGMENT RESULTS Increase /(Decrease) Healthcare segment RBR of $101.8 million increased 1% for the third quarter 2018 compared to the same prior year period driven by the start-up of the HSS joint venture with Baptist Health South Florida which more than offset some softness in Healthcare consulting. Segment operating profit of $28.7 million declined $3.0 million in third quarter 2018 compared to the third quarter 2017 as start-up costs related to the HSS joint venture and costs related to the maintenance of resources in healthcare consulting in anticipation of improving demand impacted profitability in the current year period. Energy segment RBR for third quarter 2018 of $34.6 million increased 17% compared to third quarter 2017, driven by continued strong demand across the segment. Segment operating profit of $10.9 million for the quarter was up 34% compared to the third quarter 2017 driven by the strong top-line performance and continued cost control. Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment RBR for the third quarter 2018 finished at $35.0 million, up 1% compared to third quarter 2017, underpinned by solid demand across the segment in specialties such as financial crime and operational efficiency engagements. Segment operating profit of $11.5 million decreased 24% as revenue gains were offset by headcount and technology investments made in the current year period to support future growth. CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET Third quarter 2018 net cash provided by operating activities was $24.7 million compared to $35.2 million for third quarter 2017, as favorable net working capital in the current year period was more than offset by the timing of tax payments related to the SaleCo divestiture. Days Sales Outstanding for continuing operations was 75 days as of September 30, 2018, 2 days higher compared to December 31, 2017. Bank debt was repaid in full as of September 30, 2018 and cash and cash equivalents were $277.4 million at the end of the period reflecting the cash proceeds from the completed SaleCo transaction. Navigant expanded its share repurchase program and repurchased an additional 1.54 million shares of common stock during the third quarter of 2018 at an aggregate cost of $36.6 million and an average price of $23.76 per share. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $135.4 million remaining under its expanded stock repurchase authorization, which was refreshed on May 10, 2018 and expires on December 31, 2020. 2018 GUIDANCE – CONTINUING OPERATIONS Management reaffirms 2018 guidance for continuing operations, which was originally provided in August 2018: Revenues estimated to be between $740 million and $765 million RBR expected to range between $660 million and $685 million Adjusted EBITDA expected to range between $52 million and $59 million Adjusted EPS estimated to be between $0.40 and $0.50 per share CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS Navigant will host a conference call to discuss the Company’s third quarter 2018 results at 10 a.m. Eastern Time (9 a.m. Central Time) later this morning, Thursday, Nov. 8, 2018. The conference call may be accessed via the Navigant website (investors.navigant.com) or by dialing 888.455.9733 (630.395.0358 for international callers) and referencing pass code “NCI.” Presentation materials for the webcast, as well as a report of financial and related supplemental information will available on the Navigant website, as will an archived replay of the earnings conference call. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) are included in the financial schedules attached to this press release. This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Navigant has provided guidance regarding Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings Per Share both of which exclude the impact of severance expense and other operating costs (benefit), as applicable. Navigant is not able to accurately forecast the excluded items at the level of precision that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Due to the sale of the Disputes, Forensics and Legal Technology segment and the Transaction Advisory Services practice, formerly part of the Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment, the Company has classified these businesses (collectively referred to as “SaleCo”) as discontinued operations with the assets and liabilities being presented as held-for-sale in prior periods. Prior period comparisons have been adjusted to reflect this reporting change. DEFINITIONS Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share (EPS) Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA – earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization – excluding the impact of severance expense and other operating costs (benefit), as applicable. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share exclude the net income and per share net income impact of severance expense, other operating costs (benefit), the benefit recognized in the fourth quarter 2017 related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the benefit recognized in the second quarter 2018 related to the recognition of goodwill tax basis on a portion of the assets that were moved to discontinued operations (which impacted discontinued operations only), and the gain recognized in the third quarter 2018 related to the SaleCo divestiture (which impacted discontinued operations only), as applicable. While other operating costs (benefit) are generally non-recurring in nature, severance expense and certain other operating costs are not considered to be non-recurring, infrequent or unusual to our business. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with enhanced comparability of Navigant’s results of operations across periods. See non-GAAP reconciliations for more details. Free Cash Flow is calculated as net cash provided by (used in) operations excluding the change in assets, liabilities and allowance for doubtful accounts less cash payment for property, equipment and deferred acquisition liabilities. Free Cash Flow does not represent cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayment. However, management believes that Free Cash Flow provides investors with an indicator of cash available for on-going business operations and long-term value creation. See non-GAAP reconciliations for more details. ABOUT NAVIGANT Navigant Consulting, Inc.

(3) Effective income tax expense has been determined based on specific tax jurisdiction. (4) In 2018, the Company incurred non-recurring legal costs relating to a shareholder proxy contest, as well as non-recurring fees and expenses relating to the SaleCo transaction. (5) On June 23, 2018, we entered into an agreement to sell all of the operations of the former Disputes, Forensics and Legal Technology segment and the Transaction Advisory Services group within the Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment to Ankura Consulting Group, LLC. These businesses ("SaleCo”) have been classified as discontinued operations in our results. The sale closed on August 24, 2018. (6) Represents the gain recognized in the third quarter 2018 related to the August 24, 2018 closing of the SaleCo divestiture. (7) Due to held-for-sale presentation triggered by the SaleCo divestiture, the Company recognized a $7.9 million tax benefit related to the recognition of goodwill tax basis on a portion of the assets that were moved to assets held for sale. (8) Free cash flow for the third quarter 2018 was impacted by the timing of certain tax items related to the SaleCo divestiture. Free Cash Flow is calculated as net cash provided from operations excluding changes in assets and liabilities and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable less cash payments for property and equipment and deferred acquisition related payments. Free cash flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayment. However, management believes that it provides investors with an indicator of cash flows available for on-going business operations and long-term value creation. (9) Leverage ratio is calculated as bank debt at the end of the period divided by Adjusted EBITDA (for continuing and discontinued operations) for the prior twelve-month period. Management believes that leverage ratio provides investors with an indicator of the cash flows available to repay the Company's debt obligations. (10) Organic growth represents revenues before reimbursements from continuing operations adjusted to include the impact of our acquisitions as if we owned them from the beginning of each comparable period and adjusted to exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Management believes that organic growth reflects the growth of our existing business and is, therefore, useful in analyzing the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

With our diverse portfolio of service offerings and our disciplined management approach, we remain confident in our ability to deliver on our financial and operating goals for 2017.” Navigant reported first quarter 2017 RBR of $236.2 million, a 6% increase (4% organic growth), compared to $223.5 million for first quarter 2016. Total revenues increased 5% to $257.8 million for first quarter 2017 compared to $245.3 million for first quarter 2016. Net income for first quarter 2017 was $11.1 million, or $0.23 per share, compared to $12.6 million, or $0.26 per share, in the prior year first quarter. Adjusted EPS was $0.27 for first quarter 2017, flat compared to first quarter 2016. First quarter 2017 adjusted EBITDA was $31.5 million, a 3% increase, compared to $30.6 million for the same period in 2016. Segment Financial Summary For the quarter ended March 31, Healthcare segment RBR increased 11% for first quarter 2017 compared to the respective period in 2016, mostly on an organic basis. Growth was driven by continued demand from providers for large, strategy-led transformation projects, in addition to demand from life sciences companies for commercialization solutions. Segment operating profit was up 16% in first quarter 2017 compared to the respective period of 2016. Energy segment RBR increased 21% for first quarter 2017 on a year-over-year basis, led by contributions from the Ecofys acquisition announced in November 2016. Segment operating profit was up 32% in first quarter 2017 compared to first quarter 2016. Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment RBR for first quarter 2017 decreased 2% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the conclusion of some engagements and lighter-than-normal volume in compliance and controls services for some of our core financial institution clients. Segment operating profit was down 14% in first quarter 2017 compared to the respective period of 2016. Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology first quarter 2017 segment RBR decreased 1% year-over-year (flat on a foreign currency neutral basis), which is relatively stable compared to prior quarter results. The segment experienced continued demand for our global expertise in complex industrial, infrastructure and commercial project matters, an increase in the volume of legal technology engagements, and an increase in performance-based fees associated with mass tort claims. Segment operating profit was down 8% in first quarter 2017 compared to the respective period of 2016. Cash Flow Net cash used in operating activities for first quarter 2017 was $23.0 million compared to $26.6 million for first quarter 2016. Free cash flow decreased to $13.3 million for first quarter 2017 compared to $21.0 million for the same period in 2016, primarily driven by increased capital expenditures due to the relocation of our Chicago headquarters. Days Sales Outstanding was 86 days as of March 31, 2017, up eight days compared to March 31, 2016. Bank debt was $178.3 million at March 31, 2017, compared to $211.5 million at March 31, 2016 and $135.0 million at Dec. 31, 2016.

The increase in the debt leverage as of March 31, 2017 compared to the previous quarter was driven by 2016 annual incentive compensation payments. Also, during the quarter, Navigant entered into a new credit agreement, refinancing its $400-million revolving credit facility and extending the maturity date of the facility to March 2022. Navigant repurchased 207,298 shares of common stock during first quarter 2017 at an aggregate cost of $5.0 million and an average cost of $23.93 per share.

Looking ahead, we hope to build on the momentum we have experienced to date in 2016 and enter 2017 on a strong note.” Segment Financial Summary Third quarter 2016 RBR for the Healthcare segment increased 22% year-over-year, with more than half of that growth organic. The performance continued to be driven by strong demand for large, strategy-led transformation projects and revenue cycle consulting engagements. Segment operating profit for third quarter 2016 was up 32% compared to the same period in 2015. Energy segment RBR increased 6% for the third quarter 2016 compared to the equivalent period in 2015, all of which represented organic growth. RBR growth for the quarter reflected contributions across the segment’s portfolio of solutions, in addition to ongoing penetration of key client accounts. Third quarter 2016 segment operating profit was also up 8% compared to the same period in 2015. Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment RBR for third quarter 2016 increased 42%, all on an organic basis, compared to the prior year third quarter. Growth was driven primarily by continued demand for financial crimes consulting expertise and an increase in compliance and controls engagements for major financial institutions, as compared to the prior year period which had experienced relatively lower utilization due to the wind-down of certain large engagements. RBR growth, better pricing and higher consultant utilization led to a robust 70% increase in third quarter 2016 segment operating profit year-over-year. Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology segment RBR was down 3% for third quarter 2016 compared the third quarter 2015. The decrease was attributable to currency fluctuations as well as a lower volume of engagements in financial services disputes and international arbitration, both which experienced particularly high demand in the prior-year period. This decline was partially offset by strong demand for our global expertise in large infrastructure claims and construction dispute matters. Segment operating profit was down 8% in third quarter 2016 compared to the respective period of 2015. Cash Flow Third quarter 2016 net cash provided by operating activities was $48.0 million, compared to $38.9 million for third quarter 2015, as a result of improved earnings. Free cash flow increased to $25.5 million for third quarter 2016 compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2015, primarily driven by a decrease in capital investment spending. Days Sales Outstanding was 87 days as of September 30, 2016, up six days compared to September 30, 2015. Bank debt was $161.2 million at September 30, 2016, compared to $146.8 million at September 30, 2015 and $189.8 million at June 30, 2016. Leverage (bank debt divided by trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA) was 1.17 at September 30, 2016, compared to 1.22 at September 30, 2015 and 1.46 at June 30, 2016. Navigant repurchased 309,233 shares of common stock during third quarter 2016 at an aggregate cost of $5.8 million and an average cost of $18.68 per share. As of September 30, 2016, approximately $69.3 million remained available under the Company’s share repurchase authorization. 2016 Outlook Navigant raised its 2016 outlook. Full year 2016 RBR is now expected to range between $920.0 and $940.0 million, which is the upper half of the previously-issued guidance range. The range for 2016 total revenues was increased to $1.00 and $1.02 billion, up from $960 million to $1.01 billion. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2016 is now expected to range between $137.5 and $145.0 million, which is the upper half of the previously-issued guidance range. Adjusted EPS for full year 2016 is estimated to be between $1.15 and $1.25, an increase of $0.10 from the previous guidance range.

Total revenues increased 12% to $261.7 million for second quarter 2016 compared to $233.4 million for second quarter 2015. Net income for second quarter 2016 was $14.8 million, or $0.30 per share, compared to $7.8 million, or $0.16 per share, in the prior year second quarter. Adjusted EPS was $0.33 for second quarter 2016, up 27% compared to second quarter 2015. Second quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA was $37.2 million, a 23% increase, compared to $30.1 million for the same period in 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margin (adjusted EBITDA as a percent of RBR) for second quarter 2016 increased to 15.6% compared to 14.3% in second quarter 2015. “Navigant’s 2016 second quarter results reflected continued strong market demand for the breadth and depth of our expertise,” commented Julie Howard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The strength of our portfolio and our consistent execution drove double-digit revenue and earnings per share growth. The alignment of our professionals’ expertise to the issues facing the rapidly transforming industries Navigant serves gives me great optimism about the trajectory of our business results throughout the rest of the year.” Segment Financial Summary Second quarter 2016 RBR for the Healthcare segment increased 21% year-over-year, with more than half of that growth organic. Segment RBR for the quarter also increased 10% sequentially from first quarter 2016. The performance was driven by strong demand for large, strategy-led transformation projects and revenue cycle consulting engagements. Segment operating profit for second quarter 2016 was up 19% compared to the same period in 2015. Energy segment RBR increased 12% for the second quarter 2016 compared to the equivalent period in 2015, all of which represented organic growth. RBR was also up 9% on a sequential basis from first quarter 2016. RBR growth for the quarter reflected strength across the segment’s portfolio of solutions, in addition to ongoing penetration of key client accounts. Second quarter 2016 segment operating profit was also up 12% compared to the same period in 2015. Financial Services Advisory and Compliance segment RBR for second quarter 2016 increased 36%, all on an organic basis, compared to the prior year second quarter. In addition, RBR was up 19% compared to first quarter 2016. Growth was driven primarily by continued demand for financial crimes expertise and an increase in compliance and controls engagements for major financial institutions. RBR growth and higher consultant utilization led to a robust 56% increase in second quarter 2016 segment operating profit year-over-year. Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology segment RBR decreased 2% for second quarter 2016 compared to both the second quarter 2015 and the first quarter 2016, primarily driven by declines in demand and increased competition for legal technology solutions. This decline was generally offset by strong demand for our global expertise in large infrastructure and construction dispute matters as well as increased regulatory, compliance and dispute demand within the healthcare and life sciences sectors. Despite a decline in RBR, segment operating profit was up 13% in second quarter 2016 compared to the respective period of 2015, reflecting actions to better align resources and the recognition of performance-based revenue associated with mass tort claims work. Cash Flow Second quarter 2016 net cash provided by operating activities was $34.2 million, compared to $29.1 million for second quarter 2015, as a result of improved earnings. Free cash flow increased to $24.4 million for second quarter 2016 compared to $11.6 million for the same period in 2015, primarily driven by a decrease in capital investment spending and acquisition-related payments. Days Sales Outstanding was 81 days as of June 30, 2016, up one day compared to June 30, 2015. Bank debt was $189.8 million at June 30, 2016, compared to $171.4 million at June 30, 2015 and $211.5 million at March 31, 2016.

The year-over-year increase was mainly due to additional borrowings to fund the McKinnis acquisition in December 2015. Navigant repurchased 427,499 shares of common stock during second quarter 2016 at an aggregate cost of $6.8 million and an average cost of $15.81 per share. As of June 30, 2016, approximately $75.0 million remained available under the Company’s share repurchase authorization. 2016 Outlook Our 2016 outlook for RBR, total revenues and adjusted EBITDA remains unchanged. Full year 2016 RBR is expected to range between $900 and $940 million while 2016 total revenues are estimated to be between $960 million and $1.01 billion. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2016 is expected to range between $132 and $145 million. Adjusted EPS for full year 2016 is projected to be at the higher end of the range of $1.05 to $1.15.

Navigant Reports First Quarter 2016 Financial Results

  • CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Navigant (NYSE: NCI) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016. Financial Summary and Highlights: First quarter 2016 revenues before reimbursements (RBR) increased 11%, with 8% organic growth, over first quarter 2015 First quarter 2016 GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $0.26 First quarter 2016 adjusted EPS of $0.27, up 17% compared to first quarter 2015 First quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA of $30.6 million, up 8% from the prior year first quarter Affirms 2016 financial outlook, estimates adjusted EPS toward higher end of previously communicated range Navigant reported first quarter 2016 RBR of $223.5 million, an 11% increase, with 8% organic growth, compared to $201.2 million for first quarter 2015. Total revenues increased 10% to $245.3 million for first quarter 2016 compared to $223.2 million for first quarter 2015. Net income for first quarter 2016 was $12.6 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to $25.1 million, or $0.51 per share, in the prior year first quarter, which benefited $0.31 per share from an earn-out adjustment primarily related to a non-taxable amount for the Cymetrix acquisition. Adjusted EPS was $0.27 for first quarter 2016, up 17% compared to first quarter 2015. First quarter 2016 adjusted EBITDA was $30.6 million compared to $28.4 million for the same period in 2015. “Navigant delivered strong top and bottom line growth in the first quarter 2016, and market demand for our service offerings is robust,” commented Julie Howard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The investments we made in 2015 to strengthen our go-to market approach, ramp up senior hiring, deepen our capabilities and align our brand to the evolved Navigant are yielding results and we are very pleased with our positioning and performance trajectory. Going forward, we expect to meet the financial objectives we have set forth for the year, continuing our path of both organic revenue and earnings growth.” Segment Financial Summary First quarter 2016 RBR for the Healthcare segment increased 28% year-over-year, with more than half of that growth organic. Strength was driven by continued demand in consulting services including provider performance improvement solutions, revenue cycle consulting, which reflects the contribution from the McKinnis Consulting Services acquisition, and life sciences commercialization solutions. In addition, business process management services revenue grew year-over-year. Segment operating profit margin for first quarter 2016 was up slightly to 29% compared to the same period in 2015. Energy segment RBR increased 5% for the first quarter 2016 compared to the equivalent period in 2015, all of which represented organic growth. RBR growth for the quarter reflects an increase in strategy and operational improvement along with demand side management services. First quarter 2016 segment operating profit was down 15% compared to the same period of 2015, due to higher compensation and benefits expenses associated with recent senior hires, partially offset by higher RBR and lower incentive based compensation. The Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology (previously known as Disputes, Investigations & Economics) segment RBR increased 6% for first quarter 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, all of which represented organic growth. Growth was driven by increased demand for our premier dispute resolution offerings, with strong performance in global construction and infrastructure claims matters, in addition to continued demand aligned with our core industry sectors of healthcare and life sciences, energy and financial services. The segment also recognized performance-based revenue associated with mass tort claims work. Strong organic growth was partially offset by a decrease in legal technology solutions revenue in the United States. Segment operating profit was up 18% in first quarter 2016 compared to the respective period of 2015, driven by higher RBR and ongoing cost management actions. The Financial Services Advisory and Compliance (previously known as Financial, Risk & Compliance) segment RBR for first quarter 2016 continued the sequential growth trend that began over the second half of 2015, while down 4% compared to the prior year quarter as was anticipated. The year-over-year comparison to first quarter 2015 was impacted by a few large engagements that wound down over the course of 2015. Segment operating profit was down 10% in first quarter 2016 compared to first quarter 2015, mainly due to lower RBR. Other Results First quarter 2016 general and administrative expenses of $39.8 million increased 12% compared to first quarter 2015, while remaining essentially flat as a percentage of RBR at just under 18%. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased significantly in first quarter 2016 over the same period in 2015, primarily due to higher capital expenditures in the prior year and higher levels of intangible assets resulting from recent acquisitions. Our first quarter 2016 income tax expense was favorably impacted by the reversal of $0.9 million of tax valuation allowances due to improved earnings from our international subsidiaries. Our estimated full year 2016 effective income tax rate is benefitting from increased earnings in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates. Cash Flow Free cash flow increased to $21.0 million for first quarter 2016 compared to $11.8 million for the same period in 2015, primarily driven by a decrease in capital investment spending. Days Sales Outstanding was 78 days as of March 31, 2016, down 2 days compared to March 31, 2015. Bank debt was $211.5 million at March 31, 2016 compared to $178.7 million at March 31, 2015. Leverage (bank debt divided by trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA) was 1.72 at March 31, 2016 compared to 1.46 at March 31, 2015. The increase was mainly due to additional borrowings to fund the McKinnis acquisition in December 2015. Navigant repurchased 407,920 shares of common stock during first quarter 2016 at an aggregate cost of $6.3 million and an average cost of $15.36 per share. As of March 31, 2016, $81.8 million remained available under the Company’s share repurchase authorization. 2016 Outlook Our 2016 outlook for RBR, total revenues and adjusted EBITDA remains unchanged. Full year 2016 RBR is expected to range between $900 and $940 million while 2016 total revenues are estimated to be between $960 million and $1.01 billion. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2016 is expected to range between $132 and $145 million. Adjusted EPS for full year 2016 is now projected to be at the higher end of the range of $1.05 to $1.15 due to our business outlook and a lower estimated 2016 effective income tax rate, as discussed above.
