New York, New York, November 2, 2017 - DHI Group, Inc. (NYSE: DHX) (“DHI” or the “Company”), a leading online career resource and talent acquisition platform for technology professionals and other select professional communities, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
"We continued to make good progress on our strategic goals for the second half of 2017, largely completing the realignment of our organization and implementing the first set of initiatives designed to return our core tech business to growth,” said Michael Durney, President and Chief Executive Officer of DHI Group, Inc. “We remain intently focused on executing and refining our growth initiatives. The early successes we have seen, for instance with content consumption by professionals, are encouraging signs that we are on the right course to reinforce our position as the leading tech talent solution platform, and ultimately reinvigorate the Company’s growth."
Q3 2017 Tech-Focused Product and Business Highlights
DHI achieved the following as part of its tech-focused strategy:
• | Finalized the realignment of the DHI organization into a more simplified and efficient tech-focused operating structure |
• | As part of the Company's organizational simplification it has hired an Executive Vice President of Sales North America, with oversight of direct and indirect sales channels for North America and responsibility for driving growth in the business |
• | “Open Web First” go-to-market strategy that leads with social sourcing drove 82% year-over-year growth in Dice customers with Open Web, increasing penetration of Dice recruitment package customers to 38% as of September 30, 2017, up from 34% as of June 30, 2017 and from 19% a year ago |

• | On-boarded 59 search API clients in the third quarter and now have 874 customers with API integrations as of September 30, 2017, a 52% increase year-over-year |
• | Dice Careers app new downloads grew 5% year-over-year in the third quarter. As of September 30, 2017, cumulative downloads were 69% higher than September 30, 2016; average monthly unique visitors grew 15% year-over-year |
• | ClearanceJobs Voice, which launched in the second quarter and connects employers and candidates real-time through the website, is gaining traction with customers and will be further integrated into ClearanceJobs in 2018 |

Update on Operational Efficiency
The Company continued to pursue several initiatives to realize efficiencies, enhancing its ability to commit resources to the tech-focused strategy
• | Discontinued getTalent as a standalone business, in which the Company's spending this year was approximately $3 million. A portion of getTalent resources and products were realigned to support the core tech business |
• | Began serving the Mainland China market from Hong Kong creating a more efficient cost structure by exiting Shanghai |
• | Launched the new tech professional site serving the U.K. market on the U.S. site platform |
• | Lowered the available commitments on the Company’s revolving credit facility by $100 million due to lower anticipated borrowing needs, saving approximately $0.4 million in annual fees |
• | Reduced headcount by 6.5% year-to-date through increased productivity and selective reductions |
Q3 and Year-to-Date 2017 Financial Highlights
"Our third quarter financial results were consistent with the outlook we provided in July, with improved revenue trends compared to the first half of 2017 and modestly higher growth in operating costs,” said Luc Grégoire, Chief Financial Officer. “Through prudent investment and portfolio refinement, we are supporting the transition to our tech-focused strategy, which we believe will ultimately maximize shareholder value. Importantly, we are pursuing a methodical financial approach to ensure we balance near-term performance and long-term investment, and effectively employ shareholder capital.”

Business Outlook
For the fourth quarter, the Company expects the year-over-year rate of decline in revenue will be similar to the third quarter of 2017. The rate of operating expense growth should be modestly higher than the third quarter of 2017, with higher marketing spending in the core tech business. This outlook results in an Adjusted EBITDA margin that is slightly below the year-to-date margin through the first nine months of 2017. This outlook does not consider the impact of potential divestitures, as there is no assurance as to their timing or execution. On today’s conference call, management will discuss additional details of its tech-focused strategy, including context around the financial impact of the Company’s 2017 strategic objectives and operational plans.
Recent Developments
On October 24, 2017 the Company was paid restitution by a former employee, in the amount of $3.3 million pursuant to an Order of Restitution issued by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the criminal matter captioned United States of America v. David W. Kent. The gain will be recorded as a component of operating income in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Conference Call Information
The Company will host a conference call accompanied by a presentation of supporting materials today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss its financial results, recent developments, and progress on its tech-focused strategy. Speaking on the call will be Michael Durney, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Luc Grégoire, Chief Financial Officer.

Notes Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company has provided certain non-GAAP financial information as additional information for its operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash stock based compensation expense, other non-recurring income or expense (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA margin provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company’s management uses these measures for reviewing the financial results of the Company and for budgeting and planning purposes. The non-GAAP measures apply to consolidated results and results by segment or other measure as shown within this document. The Company has provided required reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures elsewhere in the document.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP metrics used by management to measure operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure for internal monitoring and planning, including preparation of annual budgets, analyzing investment decisions and evaluating profitability and performance comparisons between us and our competitors. The Company also uses this measure to calculate amounts of performance based compensation under the senior management incentive bonus program. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our Credit Agreement, represents net income plus (to the extent deducted in calculating such net income) interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock option expenses, losses resulting from certain dispositions outside the ordinary course of business, certain writeoffs in connection with indebtedness, impairment charges with respect to long-lived assets, expenses incurred in connection with an equity offering, extraordinary or non-recurring non-cash expenses or losses, transaction costs in connection with the Credit Agreement up to $250,000, deferred revenues written off in connection with acquisition purchase accounting adjustments, writeoff of non-cash stock compensation expense, and business interruption insurance proceeds, minus (to the extent included in calculating such net income) non-cash income or gains, interest income, and any income or gain resulting from certain dispositions outside the ordinary course of business.
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides our board of directors, management and investors with additional information to measure our performance, provide comparisons from period to period and company to company by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense) and tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses), and to estimate our value.
We also present Adjusted EBITDA because covenants in our Credit Agreement contain ratios based on this measure. Our Credit Agreement is material to us because it is one of our primary sources of liquidity. If our Adjusted EBITDA were to decline below certain levels, covenants in our Credit Agreement that are based on Adjusted EBITDA may be violated and could cause a default and acceleration of payment obligations under our Credit Agreement.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is computed as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our profitability.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release and oral statements made from time to time by our representatives contain forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations. These statements often include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions. These statements are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to execute our tech-focused strategy, the review of potential dispositions of certain of our businesses and the terms and timing of any such transactions, the results and timing of our search for a new Chief Executive Officer, competition from existing and future competitors in the highly competitive market in which we operate, failure to adapt our business model to keep pace with rapid changes in the recruiting and career services business, failure to maintain and develop our reputation and brand recognition, failure to increase or maintain the number of customers who purchase recruitment packages, cyclicality or downturns in the economy or industries we serve, the uncertainty surrounding the United Kingdom’s future departure from the European Union, including uncertainty in respect of the regulation of data protection and data privacy, failure to attract qualified professionals to our websites or grow the number of qualified professionals who use our websites, failure to successfully identify or integrate acquisitions, U.S. and foreign government regulation of the Internet and taxation, our ability to borrow funds under our revolving credit facility or refinance our indebtedness and restrictions on our current and future operations under such indebtedness. These factors and others are discussed in more detail in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are available on the Investors page of our website at www.dhigroupinc.com, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, under the headings “Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
You should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by the Company or its representatives herein, or elsewhere, speaks only as of the date on which it is made.
