    Business Outlook

    Based on information available as of November 2, 2022, Ceridian is issuing guidance for the full year and fourth quarter of 2022 as follows:

    Fourth Quarter 2022 Guidance Supplemental Commentary and Factors
    Dayforce recurring revenue excluding float $196 million to $198 million or an increase of 20% to 21% on a GAAP basis, and by 23% to 24% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian continues to expect a return to more normalized employment levels.
    Cloud revenue $288 million to $291 million, or an increase of 19% to 21% on a GAAP basis and 23% to 24% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian expects PowerPay recurring excluding float to decline between 8% and 6%, primarily as a result of FX headwinds.
    Total revenue $323 million to $326 million, or an increase of 14% to 16% on a GAAP basis and 18% to 19% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian expects Bureau recurring excluding float to decline between 14% and 13%.
    Float revenue $25 million Float guidance reflects the near-term rate environment and the rolling maturity of its laddered core portfolio.
    Adjusted EBITDA $49 million to $54 million Ceridian continues to make investments to expand its global HCM footprint in addition to hosting its flagship Insights conference this quarter.


    Fiscal Year 2022 Guidance   Supplemental Commentary and Factors
    Dayforce recurring revenue excluding float $750 million to $752 million, or an increase of 26% on a GAAP basis and 27% to 27.5% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian continues to expect a return to more normalized employment levels.

    Contributions from acquired assets included in Dayforce Recurring revenue excluding float are expected to total $8M and reflect two months of Ascender ownership and eleven months of ADAM HCM ownership in 2022.
    Cloud revenue $1,080 million to $1,083 million, or an increase of 24% on a GAAP basis and 26% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian expects PowerPay recurring excluding float to increase between 1% and 2%.
    Total revenue $1,233 million to $1,236 million, or an increase of 20% to 21% on a GAAP basis and 23% on a constant currency basis. Ceridian expects Bureau recurring excluding float to decline 1%.
    Float revenue $72 million Float guidance reflects the near-term rate environment and the rolling maturity of our laddered core portfolio.
    Adjusted EBITDA $232 million to $237 million Ceridian continues to make investments to expand our global HCM footprint.

    Supplemental guidance details

    As expected, Ceridian incurred severance and restructuring costs in the third quarter of 2022 in conjunction with the re-balancing of its workforce across its global footprint. These costs amounted to $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2022 and were accounted for in cost of recurring revenue. Ceridian now expects an additional $2.5 million of costs associated with this re-balancing of the workforce to be incurred in the fourth quarter.

    Ceridian has not reconciled the Adjusted EBITDA range for the full year of 2022 to the directly comparable GAAP financial measure because applicable information for the future period, on which this reconciliation would be based, is not available without unreasonable efforts due to uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and other items.

    Foreign Exchange

    The average U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate was $1.30, with a daily range of $1.28 to $1.38 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $1.26, with a daily range of $1.23 to $1.29 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2022, the U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate was $1.37. To present the performance of the business excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations, Ceridian presents revenue on a constant currency basis, which it believes is useful to management and investors. Revenue was calculated on a constant currency basis by applying the average foreign exchange rate in effect during the comparable prior period.

    For the fourth quarter 2022, Ceridian’s guidance assumes an average U.S dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate of $1.37, compared to an average rate of $1.26 for the fourth quarter of 2021.

Ceridian’s primary foreign exchange rate revenue exposure is to the Canadian dollar, with additional revenue exposure denominated in the Australian dollar and British pound, all of which have weakened significantly since the beginning of 2022. Ceridian’s fourth quarter 2022 outlook reflects an average U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar foreign exchange rate of $1.37, compared to our previous assumptions of $1.29.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Ceridian uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted operating profit, Adjusted net income, Adjusted diluted net income per share, revenue on a constant currency basis, Dayforce recurring revenue per customer, and Adjusted Cloud recurring gross margin. Ceridian believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors as supplemental measures to evaluate its overall operating performance including comparison across periods and with competitors. Ceridian’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assess operating performance because these measures exclude the results of decisions that are outside the normal course of its business operations, and are used for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes both for short- and long-term operating plans. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are components of Ceridian’s management incentive plan.

    Ceridian defines its non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

    • EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude foreign exchange gains (losses), share-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, severance charges, restructuring consulting fees, and other non-recurring items.
    • Adjusted EBITDA margin is determined by calculating the percentage Adjusted EBITDA is of total revenue.
    • Cloud recurring gross margin is defined as total Cloud recurring revenue less cost of Cloud recurring revenue as a percentage of total Cloud recurring revenue, which is exclusive of any product development and management or depreciation and amortization cost allocations. Adjusted Cloud recurring gross margin is defined as total Cloud recurring revenue less cost of Cloud recurring revenue, as adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and severance charges, as a percentage of total Cloud recurring revenue, which is exclusive of any product development and management or depreciation and amortization cost allocations.
    • Adjusted operating profit is defined as operating profit (loss), as adjusted to exclude foreign exchange gains (losses), share-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, severance charges, restructuring consulting fees, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and other non-recurring items.
    • Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss), as adjusted to exclude foreign exchange gains (losses), share-based compensation expense and related employer taxes, severance charges, restructuring consulting fees, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and other non-recurring items, all of which are adjusted for the effect of income taxes.
    • Adjusted diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. When adjusted diluted net income per share is positive, diluted weighted average common shares outstanding incorporate the effect of dilutive equity instruments.
    • Revenue on a constant currency basis is calculated by applying the average foreign exchange rate in effect during the comparable prior period.
    • Dayforce recurring revenue per customer is an indicator of the average size of Dayforce recurring revenue customers. To calculate Dayforce recurring revenue per customer, Ceridian starts with Dayforce recurring revenue on a constant currency basis by applying the same exchange rate to all comparable periods for the trailing twelve months and excludes float revenue, the impact of lower employment levels in 2021 and 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and Ascender and ADAM HCM revenue. This amount is divided by the number of live Dayforce customers at the end of the trailing twelve month period, excluding Ascender and ADAM HCM. Ceridian calculates and monitors Dayforce recurring revenue per customer on a quarterly basis. Ceridian’s Dayforce recurring revenue per customer may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the number of live Dayforce customers and the number of customers purchasing the full HCM suite. Ceridian has not reconciled the Dayforce recurring revenue per customer because there is no directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

    Ceridian’s presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Cloud recurring gross margin, Adjusted operating profit, Adjusted net income, Adjusted diluted net income per share, revenue on a constant currency basis, and Dayforce recurring revenue per customer are intended as supplemental measures of its performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, revenue, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as measures of operating cash flows or liquidity. Ceridian’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by similar items to those eliminated in this presentation.

    EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Cloud recurring gross margin, Adjusted operating profit, Adjusted net income, Adjusted diluted net income per share, revenue on a constant currency basis, and Dayforce recurring revenue per customer are not defined under GAAP, are not measures of net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, and are subject to important limitations. Ceridian’s use of these terms may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in its industry and are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of Ceridian’s results as reported under GAAP. In evaluating non-GAAP financial measures, users should be aware that in the future Ceridian may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation.
