Third Quarter 2024 Results
Revenue growth of 7.0% YoY, an 8.2% increase in constant currency, primarily driven by the timing of software license renewals. Ex-L&S revenue declined 1.3% YoY, a 0.1% decrease in constant currency.
Gross profit margin improved 870 bps YoY primarily driven by the timing of software license renewals. Ex-L&S gross profit margin improved 390 bps YoY primarily driven by delivery improvements and labor cost savings initiatives. Additionally, prior year Ex-L&S gross profit margin was negatively impacted by certain adjustments related to a previously exited contract.
Operating profit margin improved 520 bps YoY primarily driven by higher gross profit margin and lower professional services expense, partially offset by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $39.1 million related to the Digital Workplace Solutions segment.
Net loss attributable to Unisys Corporation included an additional $29.0 million tax accrual established for certain foreign subsidiaries for which the company is no longer asserting indefinite reinvestment of earnings.

TCV improvement YoY was primarily due to increased New Business TCV of 50% YoY, primarily driven by new logo signings more than doubling YoY.
Total company and Ex-L&S pipeline declines YoY resulted from strong New Business conversion and timing of the Ex-L&S renewal schedule.
Backlog(2) was $2.80 billion for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $2.38 billion for the third quarter of 2023.
2024 Financial Guidance
The company reiterates full-year 2024 revenue growth and raises profitability guidance:
Guidance
Revenue growth in constant currency
(1.5)% to 1.5%
Revised non-GAAP operating profit margin*
6.5% to 8.5%
* Prior issued guidance for profitability was 5.5% to 7.5%.
Constant currency revenue guidance translates to reported revenue growth of (1.0)% to 2.0%, based on recent exchange rates, and assumes L&S revenue of approximately $415 million and Ex-L&S revenue growth near the low end of 1.5% to 5.0%.

(1) Constant currency – A significant amount of the company’s revenue is derived from international operations. As a result, the company’s revenue has been and will continue to be affected by changes in the U.S. dollar against major international currencies. The company refers to revenue growth rates in constant currency or on a constant currency basis so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the company’s business performance from one period to another. Constant currency is calculated by retranslating current and prior-period revenue at a consistent exchange rate rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods.
(2) Backlog – Represents future revenue associated with contracted work, which has not yet been delivered or performed. Although the company believes this revenue will be recognized, it may, for commercial reasons, allow the orders to be canceled, with or without penalty.
(3) Pipeline – Represents qualified prospective sale opportunities for which bids have been submitted or vetted prospective sales opportunities which are being actively pursued. There is no assurance that pipeline will translate into recorded revenue.
(4) Total Contract Value (TCV) – Represents the estimated revenue related to contracts signed in the period without regard for cancellation terms. New Business TCV represents TCV attributable to expansion and new scope for existing clients and new logo contracts.
(5) Book-to-bill – Represents total contract value booked divided by revenue in a given period.
(6) New Business – Represents expansion and new scope for existing clients and new logo contracts.
(7) Next-Gen Solutions – Includes our Modern Workplace solutions within DWS, Digital Platforms and Applications (DP&A) solutions within CA&I, Specialized Services and Next-Gen Compute (SS&C) solutions within ECS, as well as Micro-Market solutions. The company uses estimated Next-Gen Solutions metrics to provide insight into the company’s progress in shifting the revenue mix towards solutions that are generally higher-growth and higher-margin.
(8) Non-GAAP operating profit – This measure excludes pretax pension and postretirement expense, pretax goodwill impairment charge and pretax charges in connection with certain legal matters related to professional services and legal fees, including legal defense costs, associated with certain legal proceedings, and cost-reduction activities and other expenses.
(9) EBITDA & adjusted EBITDA – Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is calculated by starting with net income (loss) attributable to Unisys Corporation common shareholders and adding or subtracting the following items: net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, interest expense (net of interest income), provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes pension and postretirement expense; goodwill impairment charge; certain legal matters related to settlements, professional services and legal fees, including legal defense costs, associated with certain legal proceedings; environmental matters related to previously disposed businesses; cost-reduction activities and other expenses, non-cash share-based expense, and other (income) expense adjustments.
(10) Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share – These measures excluded pension and postretirement expense, and charges or (credits) in connection with goodwill impairment; certain legal matters related to settlements, professional services and legal fees, including legal defense costs, associated with certain legal proceedings; environmental matters related to previously disposed businesses; cost-reduction activities and other expenses. The tax amounts related to these items for the calculation of non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share include the current and deferred tax expense and benefits recognized under GAAP for these items.
(11) Free cash flow – Represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.
(12) Pre-pension and postretirement free cash flow – Represents free cash flow before pension and postretirement contributions.
(13) Adjusted free cash flow – Represents free cash flow less cash used for pension and postretirement funding; certain legal matters related to professional services and legal fees, including legal defense costs, associated with certain legal proceedings; environmental matters related to previously disposed businesses; and cost-reduction activities and other payments.
(14) License and Support (L&S) – Represents software license and related support revenue within the company’s ECS segment.
(15) Excluding License and Support (Ex-L&S) – These measures exclude revenue, gross profit and gross profit margin in connection with software license and support revenue within the company’s ECS segment. The company provides these measures to allow investors to isolate the impact of software license renewals, which tend to be significant and impactful based on timing, and related support services in order to evaluate the company’s business outside of these areas.
Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Unisys cautions readers that the assumptions forming the basis for forward-looking statements include many factors that are beyond Unisys’ ability to control or estimate precisely, such as estimates of future market conditions, the behavior of other market participants and that TCV is based, in part, on the assumption that each of those contracts will continue for their full contracted term. Words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “should” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements and such forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs as of this date concerning future developments and their potential effect upon Unisys. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management’s expectations, assumptions and beliefs or that the effect of future developments on Unisys will be those anticipated by management. Forward-looking statements in this release and the accompanying presentation include, but are not limited to, statements made in Mr. Altabef’s and Ms. McCann’s quotations, any projections or expectations of revenue growth, margin expansion, achievement of operational efficiencies and savings, investments in artificial intelligence adoption and innovation, future growth of our Next-Gen Solutions(7), TCV and New Business TCV, the impact of New Logo signings, the impact of Unisys Logistics Optimization, backlog, pipeline, book-to-bill(5), full-year 2024 revenue growth and profitability guidance, including constant currency revenue, Ex-L&S revenue growth, L&S revenue, non-GAAP operating profit margin, free cash flow generation and the assumptions and other expectations made in connection with our full-year 2024 financial guidance, our pension liability, future economic benefits from net operating losses and statements regarding future economic conditions or performance.
Additional information and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Unisys’ expectations are contained in Unisys’ filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including Unisys’ Annual Reports on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other SEC filings, which are available at the SEC’s web site, http://www.sec.gov. Information included in this release is representative as of the date of this release only and while Unisys periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting Unisys’ results of operations and financial condition in connection with its preparation of management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition contained in its Quarterly and Annual Reports filed with the SEC, Unisys does not, by including this statement, assume any obligation to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement referenced herein in light of future events.
Non-GAAP Information
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items such as postretirement expense; certain legal and other matters related to professional services and legal fees, including legal defense costs, associated with certain legal proceedings; environmental matters related to previously disposed businesses; and cost-reduction activities and other expenses that the company believes are not indicative of its ongoing operations, as they may be unusual or non-recurring. The inclusion of such items in financial measures can make the company’s profitability and liquidity results difficult to compare to prior periods or anticipated future periods and can distort the visibility of trends associated with the company’s ongoing performance. Management also believes that non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide supplemental information about the company’s financial performance and liquidity, as well as greater transparency into management’s view and assessment of the company’s ongoing operating performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures are often provided and utilized by the company’s management, analysts, and investors to enhance comparability of year-over-year results and to isolate in some instances the impact of software license renewals, which tend to be lumpy, and related support services in order to evaluate the company’s business outside of these areas. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on the company’s GAAP results for the applicable period. These measures should not be relied upon as substitutes for, or considered in isolation from, measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found below except for financial guidance and other forward-looking information since such a reconciliation is not practicable without unreasonable efforts as the company is unable to reasonably forecast certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. This information has been provided pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G.

2024 Financial Oscars: Waton Securities International Honored as “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Institution” of the Year
Published
5 hours agoon
December 25, 2024By
SHENZHEN, China, Dec. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In early December, at the 18th Huaxia Institutional Investor Annual Conference of 2024, the 18th Golden Cicada Awards were announced. Waton Securities International was awarded the “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Financial Institution of 2024” for its significant achievements in securities brokerage and fin-tech sector.
The selection for the “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Financial Institution” focused on evaluating companies based on financial performance, market competitiveness, customer recognition, digital strategy planning and implementation, digital transformation outcomes, and risk control capabilities. Particularly, it highlighted cases that have made significant strides in digital empowerment.
The evaluation also emphasized the outstanding performance of financial institutions in their own digital transformation and the sound risk control abilities demonstrated during this process, ensuring that while pursuing innovation, companies can effectively manage and control risks. Waton Securities International distinguished itself among the contenders with its sophisticated technology platform, well-defined digital strategy, substantial transformation achievements, and commendable risk control mechanisms.
Established in Hong Kong in 1989, Waton Securities International has steadily grown with a deep understanding of professional financial services and regulatory compliance. It has obtained licenses 1/4/5/9 from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, becoming a fully licensed brokerage with comprehensive financial service qualifications. Through continuous technological innovation and digital transformation, it has successfully built a one-stop brokerage cloud service platform, promoting advanced digital financial technology globally. Its pioneering SaaS product, “Broker Cloud”, allows corporate clients to independently deploy and operate high-performance digital customer information management and trading systems without their own IT teams. The solution is relatively low-cost and adaptive to industry, which is the core competitiveness of Waton Securities International.
Data reveals that of the 1,100 securities firms in Hong Kong, approximately 600 are actively trading, yet fewer than 50 have developed their own mobile applications. On a global scale, among the 30,000 securities companies, only a handful—less than 300—feature brokerage trading Apps in App stores. This underscores a significant market demand for the digital enhancement of the securities sector.
With the swift growth of technologies like generative AI LLMs, blockchain, big data, and cloud computing, the securities industry can use these tools to streamline trading strategies, assess risks more accurately, and forecast market trends. These technologies also help the industry to move towards more integrated, platform-focused, and digital operations. The main goal of technology in finance is to increase the efficiency of financial institutions. A good starting point for applying technology is to focus on financial services and build a solid technical foundation for these institutions.
