“Against the backdrop of the most challenging period in our company’s 70-year history, I could not be more proud of the resiliency shown by every Volt colleague across our organization,” said Linda Perneau, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The disruption caused by COVID-19 forced us to think and work differently while ensuring we were able to provide a consistent level of world-class service to our clients, many of whom are essential businesses. At the same time, we successfully expanded our relationships with existing customers and secured new business. These efforts are reflected in the sequential improvement in Adjusted Revenue we recorded during the second half of fiscal 2020. In addition, our fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA was our best quarter in four years.”
Fourth Quarter Results
North American Staffing revenue for the quarter was $178.6 million as compared to $216.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted Revenue, which is a non-GAAP measure, for this segment decreased approximately 9.4 percent year over year. The decrease is primarily attributable to continued workforce adjustments related to COVID-19, partially offset by business wins with new clients and expansion of business within existing clients.
International Staffing revenue for the quarter was $23.0 million, compared to $30.6 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Revenue decreased 22.0 percent year over year. The decrease is primarily due to lower results within the U.K. business.
North American MSP revenue for the fourth quarter was $9.4 million, compared to $11.7 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted Revenue for this segment in the prior year was $10.8 million. The decrease is primarily attributable to workforce adjustments at clients related to COVID-19 for managed service programs and payroll services.
Gross margin for the quarter was 16.2 percent of revenue, a 40 basis-point decrease from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The exclusion of last year’s extra operating week had no meaningful impact to gross margin. The decrease is primarily attributable to the revenue mix shift towards payroll services within North American MSP.
SG&A expense for the fourth quarter was $30.7 million. Excluding the fourteenth week and a business exited during the prior-year quarter, SG&A expense decreased by $6.5 million, or 17.5 percent on a year-over-year basis. The reduction is primarily attributable to lower salary expense and related taxes and reduced professional fees.
Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $5.9 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to $4.8 million in the prior-year quarter.
Fiscal 2020 Results
North American Staffing revenue for the year was $689.1 million as compared to $830.9 million for fiscal 2019. Adjusted Revenue for this segment decreased approximately 13.9 percent. The decrease is primarily attributable to significant workforce adjustments related to COVID-19, partially offset by business wins with new and existing clients. Operating Income for the year was $14.3 million compared to $18.0 million for fiscal 2019. Adjusted Operating Income for this segment, excluding impairment and restructuring charges, which is a non-GAAP measure, was $17.1 million compared to $17.9 million in the prior year.
International Staffing revenue for fiscal 2020 was $95.3 million compared to $114.4 million. Adjusted Revenue in the International Staffing segment in fiscal 2020 decreased 15.1 percent. Operating Income for the year was $1.4 million compared to $2.9 million from fiscal 2019. Adjusted Operating Income for this segment was $1.4 million, compared to $2.7 million in fiscal 2019.
North American MSP revenue decreased 2.8 percent from the prior year, to $37.9 million. Adjusted Revenue for the segment decreased 1.4 percent year over year. Operating Income for the year was $3.1 million compared to $5.0 million in the prior year. Adjusted Operating Income for this segment was $3.1 million compared to $4.8 million in fiscal 2019.
Gross margin for fiscal 2020 increased by 30 basis points to 15.6 percent of revenue. The increase is primarily attributable to a revenue mix shift towards higher-margin business, particularly in the North American Staffing segment.
SG&A expense for fiscal 2020 was $137.7 million. Excluding the expense associated with the 53rd operating week and business exited, adjusted SG&A expense decreased by $16.2 million, or 10.5 percent on a year-over-year basis. The decrease is attributable to the Company’s strategic approach to optimize resources and response to COVID-19, including reduced salary expense, professional fees, travel expense and facility costs.
Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2020 was ($98,000), compared to $1.0 million in the prior year.
“Although we were presented with many challenges in fiscal 2020, our recent results indicate our strategies are working. Our improved sales strategy and disciplined pricing approach were pivotal in our ability to weather this extended period of uncertainty,” commented Ms. Perneau. “Through the maturation of our sales strategy coupled with our disciplined pricing approach and streamlined operations, we are confident we will continue to see improvement in profitability for the full-year of fiscal 2021.”

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of known and unknown risks. Such risks include, among others, general economic, competitive and other business conditions (including the potential impact of the strain of coronavirus known as COVID-19 on our operations as well as the operations of our customers), the degree and timing of customer utilization and renewal rate for contracts with the Company, and the degree of success of business improvement initiatives that could cause actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those described or implied in the forward-looking statements. Information concerning these and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are contained in the “Risk Factors” and other sections of the Company reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements and to consult our SEC filings for additional risks and uncertainties that may apply to our business and the ownership of our securities. Our forward-looking statements are presented as of the date made, and we disclaim any duty to update such statements unless required by law to do so.
Note Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company has provided certain Non-GAAP financial information, including Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, which include adjustments to our GAAP financial results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may be different from Non-GAAP measures reported by other companies.
The Company believes that the presentation of Non-GAAP measures, including on a constant currency basis and eliminating (a) the impact of businesses sold or exited, (b) the extra operating week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and (c) special items provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations because they permit evaluation of the results of the Company without the effect of currency fluctuations, special items or the impact of businesses sold or exited that management believes make it more difficult to understand and evaluate the Company’s results of operations. Special items include impairments, restructuring and severance as well as certain income or expenses which the Company does not consider indicative of the current and future period performance and are more fully disclosed in the tables.
Adjusted Revenue is defined as revenue excluding businesses exited, the effect of foreign currency translation and the extra operating week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company has also migrated certain clients from a traditional staffing model to a managed service model, resulting in the Company now managing a greater percentage of such clients’ business under its North American MSP. This shift provides increased opportunity for the Company with the relevant clients. However, due to the structure of MSP arrangements, revenue is recognized on a net basis, thereby reducing revenues on a comparative period basis. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company includes such delivery model shifts within the Adjusted Revenue measurement, as it provides a more comparable basis for evaluating performance results from period to period and reflects the method used by management to evaluate performance. A reconciliation is shown in the tables at the end of this press release.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings or loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense as well as the special items described above.
Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure rather than a cash flow measure. The Company believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view results in a manner similar to the method used by management.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of the Company’s results of operations and operating cash flows as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect capital expenditures or contractual commitments; does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, the Company’s working capital needs; does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service the interest payments, on the Company’s debt; and does not reflect cash required to pay income taxes.
Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is defined as operating income (loss) excluding businesses exited and the extra operating week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
The Company believes the presentation of Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is relevant and useful for investors because it provides a more comparable basis to evaluate performance results and analyze trends from period to period in a manner similar to the method used by management.
Adjusted EPS is defined as earnings per share excluding impairment and restructuring charges. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EPS is useful for investors since it removes certain special items which the Company does not consider indicative of the current and future period performance.
The Company’s computation of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies because all companies do not calculate these measures in the same fashion.
