Despite the sales dip, income from operations grew 2.7% to $45.8 million, thanks to reduced cost of sales and lower SG&A expenses. The company's liquidity remains solid, supported by a newly amended and restated credit agreement providing a $115.0 million term loan and a $300.0 million revolving facility. The company continues its strategic shift towards software solutions to mitigate market volatility [Executive Overview](index=30&type=section&id=Executive%20Overview) For the first quarter of 2025, net sales decreased by 1.1% to $201.1 million year-over-year, driven by a $6.4 million decline in tech-enabled services, partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in software solutions, notably from the Tailored Shareholder Reporting (TSR) offering. Income from operations increased by 2.7% to $45.8 million, benefiting from lower cost of sales ($7.1 million) and SG&A expenses ($7.0 million), which compensated for the absence of a $9.8 million gain on an asset sale that occurred in Q1 2024 - Q1 2025 net sales decreased by **$2.3 million (1.1%)** YoY to **$201.1 million**[109](index=109&type=chunk) - The sales decrease was driven by a **$6.4 million** drop in tech-enabled services from lower capital markets compliance volumes, partly offset by a **$4.3 million** rise in software solutions, including a **$3.0 million** increase from the TSR offering[109](index=109&type=chunk) - Income from operations increased by **$1.2 million (2.7%)** to **$45.8 million**, due to lower costs, which offset the impact of a **$9.8 million** gain on a land sale in the prior-year quarter[110](index=110&type=chunk) [Results of Operations](index=31&type=section&id=Results%20of%20Operations) In Q1 2025, total net sales fell 1.1% to $201.1 million. Software solutions sales grew 5.4% to $84.6 million, driven by the TSR offering and Arc Suite, while tech-enabled services sales dropped 7.7% to $76.5 million due to lower compliance volumes. Total cost of sales decreased by 8.9%, and SG&A expenses fell by 9.6%, leading to a 2.7% increase in income from operations. However, net earnings declined by 6.9% to $31.0 million, affected by a higher effective tax rate and the absence of a significant one-time gain from an asset sale recorded in Q1 2024 Consolidated Results of Operations (Q1 2025 vs Q1 2024) | | 2025 (in millions) | 2024 (in millions) | % Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Total net sales** | $201.1 | $203.4 | (1.1%) | | Software solutions | $84.6 | $80.3 | 5.4% | | Tech-enabled services | $76.5 | $82.9 | (7.7%) | | **Income from operations** | $45.8 | $44.6 | 2.7% | | **Net earnings** | $31.0 | $33.3 | (6.9%) | - SG&A expenses decreased by **$7.0 million (9.6%)** primarily due to **$2.7 million** lower bad debt expense and **$2.0 million** lower selling and marketing expenses[121](index=121&type=chunk) - Other operating income was significantly lower, as the prior year period included a **$9.8 million** net gain on the sale of land[124](index=124&type=chunk) - The effective income tax rate rose to **26.5%** in Q1 2025 from **19.6%** in Q1 2024, driven by a decrease in the net favorable impact of discrete adjustments[127](index=127&type=chunk) [Information by Segment](index=33&type=section&id=Information%20by%20Segment) In Q1 2025, segment performance varied. Capital Markets-Software Solutions saw a 2.1% sales decline and a 12.0% drop in Adjusted EBITDA. In contrast, Capital Markets-Compliance and Communications Management sales fell 7.9%, but its Adjusted EBITDA surged 16.9% due to significant cost reductions. Investment Companies-Software Solutions was a strong performer, with sales up 19.8% and Adjusted EBITDA jumping 60.0%, driven by the TSR offering.
