The Fedcap Group Releases First Half Fiscal Year 2024 Operating and Financial Results

Financial Release

 

New York, NY (May 7, 2024) – The Fedcap Group announced its first half fiscal 2024 operational and financial results, ended March 31, 2024.

Commenting on the results, Christine McMahon, President and CEO of The Fedcap Group noted, “We are pleased with the resilience that Fedcap demonstrated during this period of difficult economic and business conditions, which included growing fixed costs coupled with reduced government funding for several of our programs. Despite these challenges, we were able to increase the number of individuals served and post stable financial results, reflecting the diversity of our programs and revenue sources.  As we move ahead in the second half of fiscal 2024, we will continue to prioritize organic growth, acquisitions, and new program launches to deliver positive outcomes for clients and maintain consistent financial results for the organization.” 

“In the past six months, we completed several key initiatives, culminating in the successful launch of our innovation incubator and digital skills center, Civic Hall, in New York. Additionally, we launched a new Apex Technical School solar training program in Brooklyn, New York—increasing the education portfolio to 18 programs in four states, and we strategically expanded our presence through key acquisitions, notably the Teaching the Autism Community Trades School in Denver, Colorado. Our ongoing success in securing new contracts has enabled us to extend our service reach, exemplified by our latest workforce contract in Tennessee. Due to our exceptional service delivery, we’ve earned an extension for our UK Restart workforce contract. These are emblematic of initiatives that have proven positive track records with respect to benefits to individuals and society, and they are scalable to other geographies in which we are providing services.”

The Fedcap Group Financial and Programmatic Results for FY 2021 Demonstrate Effective Implementation and Strong Financial Performance

The Fedcap Group Financial and Programmatic Results for FY 2021 Demonstrate Effective Implementation and Strong Financial Performance

On Thursday, December 16, The Fedcap Group reported its operating and financial results for fiscal year 2021 ended September 30, 2021. These biannual presentations provide our investors including donor and funders, supply chain and other key stakeholders with regular and timely disclosures about financial and operational performance, mission-related impact, and trends and challenges for The Fedcap Group, while underscoring our commitment to fiscal transparency. View the press release.
Highlights from a very successful year—include double digit revenue growth reflecting both organic and acquisition growth, contract awards exceeding $435 million, an expanded international footprint, and the acquisition of Civic Hall, a high profile and innovative provider of advanced technology training solutions.

Year-on-year revenue growth of 23% in fiscal 2021 was led by full year contributions from our large Canadian workforce development contract and from our FY 202 acquisition of APEX Technical School, a New York City institution having graduated over 40,000 people as plumbers, electricians and other high-demand trades. Additionally, we ramped up our substantial new contract in the UK, valued at $267 million, to provide support for people who are unemployed as a direct impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Christine McMahon, CEO of The Fedcap Group
Other highlights include the employment of over 1,500 people in our commercial business operations, most of whom have disabilities or other barriers; provided functional capacity assessments, employment readiness training, vocational evaluations, and wellness services to over 40,000 people; placed 13,100 people in jobs, along with follow-on job retention services, provided services to 10,000 children ages 0-8, and launched the Greenleaf Neurodiversity Community Center in Austin, Texas, an innovative public-private partnership that serves young people with autism who are transitioning to adulthood. Looking ahead, The Fedcap Group plans to launch an innovative digital training center leveraging the assets of both Apex and Civic Hall. This 80,000-square-foot digital training center will address the re-skilling and up-skilling of workers, supplying a trained workforce to meet the demand of our transforming economy and job landscape. And to gain a higher education platform, the agency recently announced a strategic partnership with Paul Smith’s College, located in Upstate New York. The college serves approximately 1,000 students a year, over 46 percent of whom are the first in their families to attend college.

I could not be prouder of The Fedcap Group leadership and staff who have worked diligently to bring our essential services to the at-risk populations we serve. This is an indication of the strong culture that unites us and enables us to continue to make a significant impact on the lives of people with barriers to economic wellbeing in 22 states and Canada, Scotland and England

Committed to providing services that positively impact the lives of people with barriers to economic wellbeing, The Fedcap Group is structured in four areas of practice: Education, Workforce Development, Occupational Health and Economic Development and operates through 21 nonprofit subsidiaries, in the U.S., Canada and the UK.

Management Comment

“The Fedcap Group’s first half performance represented a strong start to fiscal 2021. Revenues increased 18% to $152.8MM, reflecting our growing platform of services and expanding geographic footprint. During the period, we continued to execute effectively on existing contracts and increase our impact by winning large, new awards, all while managing through the challenges of COVID-19. We also completed two important strategic acquisitions: Apex Technical School in September 2020 and Civic Hall Technology Hub at the end of March 2021. Both combinations significantly advance our ability to train and upskill individuals in the technology sector—creating a pathway to long term economic wellbeing.

“First half revenue growth was led by the ramp up of the large Canadian workforce development contract we were awarded last fiscal year, increased demand for our facility management and cleaning services during the pandemic and a 6-month contribution from the Apex acquisition. Also in the first half of 2021, we continued to refine our work in our five key areas of focus: Children ages 0-8, youth transitioning from foster care, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, the previously incarcerated and those on public assistance.

“As we slowly turn the corner on the pandemic, The Fedcap Group remains committed to assisting people from across our footprint who are struggling to make ends meet, ensuring children have access to much needed educational and supportive services and helping individuals develop the skills to succeed in the changing workplace,” said Christine McMahon, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Summary and Outlook

Business conditions continued to improve as certain pandemic-related restrictions were eased, and we were able to achieve positive outcomes for an expanded universe of individuals in need. Additionally, we are very pleased with our acquisitions of Apex Technical School and Civic Hall, two high profile companies.

“Bringing Apex Technical School into The Fedcap Group provides tremendous opportunity to expand our efforts in creating pipelines from training to jobs. For nearly 60 years, Apex has provided educational opportunities that change lives. Each year, 1000+ individuals graduate with skills and certifications in trades with tremendous growth potential. This combination allows us to expand our ability to assist unemployed individuals develop new skills, especially in technology and compete in the changing marketplace.

“Civic Hall Technology Hub is a center for learning, collaboration, and technology for the public good. Founded in February 2015, Civic Hall has built a strong following with government, tech companies, media leaders, academic institutions, foundations, and community-based organizations that will support our training and upskilling services.

“In the first half, our Fedcap UK subsidiary successfully competed to provide support for people who have been directly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and have been unemployed between 12-18 months. The contract, valued at over $201,600MM over 4.5 years, was awarded to us in April, and represent important recognition of the track record we have established in gaining employment for individuals across England and Scotland, as well as in the US and Canada.

I could not be prouder of The Fedcap Group leadership and staff who have worked diligently to bring our essential services to the at-risk populations we serve within a very difficult operating environment. This is an indication of the strong culture that unites us and enables us to continue to make a significant impact in the lives of people with barriers to economic wellbeing,” noted Ms. McMahon.

The Fedcap Group Reports Fiscal Year 2020 Operating and Financial Results

The Fedcap Group Reports Fiscal Year 2020 Operating and Financial Results

--Resilient performance supported by a strong programmatic, financial and technology infrastructure--

New York, December 11 – The Fedcap Group, the parent company for a growing network of top tier nonprofit agencies, today reported its operating and financial results for fiscal year 2020 ending September 30, 2020. Committed to providing services that positively impact the lives of people with barriers to social and economic well-being, The Fedcap Group operates in four main practice areas: Education, Workforce Development, Occupational Health and Economic Development.

Management Comment

“The Fedcap Group’s fiscal 2020 performance demonstrated the resilience of our organization and our ability to manage effectively through the challenges of COVID-19. We have remained operational throughout this unprecedented health crisis, providing a broad range of services to consumers, while maintaining strict safety protocols to protect our staff. At the same time, we took action to optimize The Fedcap Group’s financial position to ensure the sustainability of our work, ending the year with relatively stable year-on-year recurring revenue levels, a strong cash position, and expanded bank credit lines,” said Christine McMahon, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Nowhere has the pandemic been more acutely felt than in our at-risk communities, where individuals are suffering high infection rates, loss of income and a pullback in available services. We are proud of how well The Fedcap Group has been able to utilize our robust platform to provide much needed help, including: distributing over 50 tons of food, toiletries, and other essentials through our child development centers and special education schools, cooking over 160,000 meals for the homeless and food insecure in our commercial kitchen, providing childcare to health care providers and first responders, and offering remote telehealth services to tens of thousands of individuals. Similarly, our facilities management subsidiary has deep cleaned over 18 million square feet of commercial space to provide a safe working environment for thousands of individuals.

“As our staff worked tirelessly since March to address the special pandemic-related needs in our communities, 2020 was also a year in which we continued to refine our work in our five key areas of focus: Children ages 0-8, youth transitioning from foster care, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), the previously incarcerated and those on public assistance. Throughout the year, we made targeted investments to enhance our technology infrastructure, enabling the transition to work-from-home and upgrading our financial, HR, fundraising and business development systems to create a sustainable platform from which to efficiently serve our diversified populations.

2020 Financial and Operating Metrics

Revenue for FY 2020 was $273.1 million, stable on a recurring revenue basis with the prior fiscal year. Lower year-on-year comparisons of reported revenue primarily reflect the downsizing of our home health business, which contributed additional revenues of approximately $6.7 million in 2019 and the wind-down of a large project that generated revenues of $25.2 million last year.

Over the last several years, The Fedcap Group has significantly diversified its revenue sources, bringing a broader array of services to at-risk populations.
  • Economic Development is comprised of business services operations that directly employ the populations we serve. In fiscal year 2020 we employed over 1,700 people in these businesses, the majority of whom have disabilities or other barriers. Within this activity, the largest unit is Total Facilities Management, which provides services at many iconic sites in the U.S. and at government and commercial office buildings. During this pandemic, client demand for Total Facilities Management has increased significantly, and we have worked diligently to meet the increased cleaning needs of the over 18MM square feet of space that we maintain.
  •  

Workforce Development continues to represent the area in which The Fedcap Group serves the largest number of individuals through a broad range of services, including the Single Stop platform. In 2020 we provided functional capacity assessments, employment readiness training, vocational evaluations, and wellness services to 23,000 people. We placed just under 9,000 people in jobs and provided job retention services. We have continued to provide most of these services via video conferencing and technology platforms during the current healthcare crisis.

Education and Occupational Health represent growing bodies of work in early childhood services provided through Easterseals and in our programs assisting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) enter the workforce. We provided services to 6,535 children ages 0-8, designing and delivering an array of evidence-based practices that promote long term economic and social well-being. The Fedcap Group is also at the forefront of helping individuals with I/DD learn new trades and enter the workforce at competitive wages. Transitioning this work to a telehealth model during COVID-19 has involved engagement of families and a learning curve for staff.

Fiscal 2020 operating expenses were $272.6 million, 88% of which represented direct program expenses. The Fedcap Group reported an operating gain of $504 thousand for the year ended September 30, 2020, largely reflecting the organization’s agility during the COVID-19 crisis, pivoting to delivering services remotely, expanding COVID-related services and managing expenses in areas where revenues were impacted by the crisis.

At September 30, 2020, cash and marketable securities were $31.7 million, of which $12.5 million represented federal government-funded loans as part of the Payroll Protection Plan (PPP). At the end of fiscal 2019, cash and marketable securities were $18.5 million.

During FY20, The Fedcap Group began the process of increasing its working capital line of credit to enable the organization to effectively bid for many growth opportunities that exist. In October 2020, The Fedcap Group refinanced a portion of its outstanding debt. The line of credit capacity was increased to $42.5 million from $25 million and long-term debt was decreased by $4 million.

Summary and Outlook

“Fiscal 2020 was a tale of two halves. In the first half of the year, Fedcap was moving forward with its growth strategy, achieving positive outcomes for individuals in need, winning new contracts including a large new workforce development contract in Canada, and engaging in talks with potential acquisition candidates.

“At the onset of the pandemic, we pivoted quickly to address the dire situations that existed in many of our communities. I could not be prouder of The Fedcap Group leadership and staff who have worked diligently to bring our essential services to the at-risk populations we serve within a very difficult operating environment. This demonstrates the strong culture that unites us and supports our confidence in The Fedcap Group’s ability to continue to effectively navigate the COVID-19 health crisis and to emerge from it as an even stronger organization.

“While the pandemic caused delays in several of our initiatives, we are pleased to report that in the 4th quarter of fiscal 2020, we officially brought Apex Technical School into The Fedcap Group. Since 1961, Apex Technical School has enjoyed a rich tradition of service to New Yorkers. Licensed by the New York State Education Department, the school’s founders were marine, stationary and refrigeration engineers who were well known in union and trade association activities. They developed a trade school for the purposes of offering a hands-on quality education. Nearly 60 years later, Apex continues to provide educational opportunities that change lives. Each year, 1000+ individuals graduate with skills and certifications in trades with tremendous growth potential. This combination allows us to expand our ability to assist unemployed individuals develop new skills, especially in the area of technology, and compete in the changing marketplace.

“We have also ramped-up our large Canadian workforce contract and are now serving a population of more than 10,000 people across Ontario. Additionally, we continue to expand our presence in the UK and we were recently selected by the UK Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) as one of 14 organizations (and the only nonprofit agency) eligible to compete for new workforce development contracts worth £2.9 billion over 4 years, throughout England, Scotland and Wales.

“We believe that the post-COVID-19 environment will provide opportunities for The Fedcap Group and similar service providers that are well-capitalized and have the scale and IT infrastructure to offer robust solutions to funders. We already are seeing greater demand for our on-premises Facilities Management Services and have added over 40 individuals to implement contract plus-ups we have received, to increase the scope of our work in this arena. There also will be expanded need for our workforce training and development work to help get individuals back to work.

“Operating in 22 states and Canada, Scotland and England, we are a leader in providing relevant services. Our strong financial position and the dedication of our staff give us confidence in The Fedcap Group’s ability to remain a sustainable organization supported by a strong programmatic, financial and technology infrastructure,” said Ms. McMahon.
