Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, today reported first quarter 2021 net sales of $1,098 million, an increase of $201 million, or 22.4%, compared with last year’s first quarter, and up 19.5% excluding the impact of foreign currency. Increased net sales were fueled by continued strengthening of the company’s global position in the growing cloud and colocation data center market segments. APAC regional net sales were up 59.6% (53.6% organic) favorably impacted by recovery from COVID-19 pressures compared to the prior year quarter, and lifted by continued growth in data center and telecommunication infrastructure projects. EMEA regional net sales increased 15.9% (8.8% organic) with strength in colocation markets. The Americas regional net sales increased 7.5% (7.9% organic) driven by strength in hyperscale data center demand for critical infrastructure and solutions. Orders in the first quarter were up 21% compared with last year’s first quarter, lifted by continued growth in cloud and colocation markets. Vertiv’s backlog continued to strengthen, reaching a record $2.1 billion at the end of March, increasing approximately $300 million from the end of December 2020 and $500 million from the prior year quarter.
Net income was $32 million, a $240 million improvement versus the prior year quarter, driven by a one-time $174 million loss from the extinguishment of debt that occurred in first quarter 2020, $71 million higher gross profit resulting from higher sales and $45 million lower interest expense, which was partially offset by a $74 million increase in the fair value measurement of warrant liabilities. Adjusted operating profit of $112 million increased $92 million and adjusted operating profit margin expanded 790 basis points, with favorable impacts from volume and lower fixed costs, all compared to the same quarter last year. Earnings per share of $0.09 and adjusted earnings per share of $0.21, an improvement of $0.96 and $0.86, respectively, from the prior year quarter, was driven by a $0.48 benefit from a one-time loss on debt extinguishment in the first quarter of 2020, a $0.25 benefit from higher adjusted operating profit and a $0.12 benefit from lower interest expense resulting from the debt paydown and refinancing that occurred in 2020.
“On the basis of a very strong first quarter, Vertiv’s full year 2021 is off to a good start,” said Rob Johnson, Vertiv’s Chief Executive Officer. “During the period we generated strong sales, orders remained robust and we significantly expanded adjusted operating profit margins. Our approach to business remains sound as our ‘One Vertiv’ team around the world focuses on the needs and expectations of our customers, leverages innovation to introduce new marketplace solutions and consistently achieves favorable results across key facets of the value chain.”
Dave Cote, Vertiv’s Executive Chairman, added, “I continue to be encouraged by the opportunity in front of Vertiv and this quarter clearly demonstrates our ability to execute on this great opportunity. Vertiv is a great company, in a good industry and is able to differentiate with technology that focuses on solving real customer problems. The digitization of our economy will constantly create new applications and data that will support the long-term growth of the industry and of Vertiv.”
As previously disclosed, based upon April 12, 2021 SEC guidance regarding the technical accounting for warrants issued by SPACs, Vertiv will be restating its 2020 financial statements to account for this recent directive. There is no anticipated impact on Vertiv’s non-GAAP operating metrics including adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating margin, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow.
Free Cash Flow and Liquidity
Net cash flow provided by operating activities in the first quarter was $61 million, and free cash flow of $43 million was up $246 million from last year’s first quarter, driven primarily by $92 million higher adjusted operating profit, $79 million lower cash interest, $24 million benefit due to timing associated with trade working capital receipts and payments, and $21 million benefit from one-time costs related to the SPAC transaction that occurred in first quarter 2020. Liquidity at the end of the first quarter remained strong at $1.1 billion.
Full Year and Second Quarter 2021 Guidance
In part due to our strong first quarter performance, we are increasing our full year 2021 adjusted operating profit guidance to $595 million (at the mid-point), $20 million higher than our previous guidance. This full year guidance includes the expected negative net impact in the remainder of the year of higher commodity and freight costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Financial information included in the news release to which this Exhibit is attached have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Vertiv has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in the news release, as further described above, that may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable among companies. These non-GAAP financial measures include organic net sales growth (including on a segment basis), adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating profit margin, adjusted diluted EPS, and free cash flow, which management believes provides investors with useful supplemental information to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations and to compare with past and future periods. Management also uses certain non-GAAP measures internally for forecasting, budgeting and measuring its operating performance. These measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, Vertiv has provided reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Information reconciling certain forward-looking GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures related to second quarter and full year 2021 guidance, including organic net sales growth and free cash flow, is not available without unreasonable effort due to high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. For the same reasons, we are unable to compute the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results. See “Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on this Exhibit 99.1 for Vertiv’s reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27 of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act. These statements are only a prediction. Actual events or results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statement set forth herein. Readers are referred to Vertiv’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for a discussion of these and other important risk factors concerning Vertiv and its operations. Vertiv is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement this press release, we have included certain non-GAAP financial measures that reflect the historical financial results presented in the format of the performance metrics we are beginning to report in 2021. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our underlying business performance and trends. Further, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures do not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting. Therefore, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP information are also included. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, compensation and planning decisions and in evaluating the company's performance. Disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors and management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance.
Vertiv’s non-GAAP financial measures include:
- Adjusted operating profit (loss), which represents operating profit (loss), adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles;
- Adjusted operating profit (loss) margins, which represents adjusted operating profit (loss) divided by net sales; and
- Adjusted diluted EPS, which represents diluted earnings per share adjusted to exclude amortization of intangibles.

GAAP Diluted EPS based on 353.4 million shares (includes 349.6 million basic shares and 3.8 million potential dilutive stock options and restricted stock units). Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS based on pro-forma share count 358.8 million shares (includes 349.6 million basic shares and 9.2 million potential dilutive warrants, stock options and restricted stock units). We believe that this presentation is more representative of operating results by removing the impact of warrant liability accounting and the associated impact on diluted share count. |
