He continued, “As just announced, I am retiring and transitioning the leadership of TriNet to Mike Simonds, and I have every confidence in Mike to keep moving the company forward. I am very proud of what we created during my more than 15 years as President and CEO of TriNet. My goal was to create an enduring company, and I believe that TriNet’s best days are still ahead.”

“On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Burton for his incredible leadership,” said TriNet Chairman, David Hodgson. “We are thrilled to have Mike join TriNet as President and CEO. We have confidence that he is the right person to lead TriNet as it continues its growth.” 

“I know I speak for all TriNet colleagues when I thank Burton for his integral role in building TriNet into what it has become today,” said Kelly Tuminelli, TriNet’s Chief Financial Officer. “TriNet executed extraordinarily well throughout 2023 managing expenses prudently while investing in sales and service and executing against our capital plan which has culminated in our announced inaugural dividend.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include: our ability to manage unexpected changes in workers’ compensation and health insurance claims and costs by worksite employees; our ability to mitigate the unique business risks we face as a co-employer; the effects of volatility in the financial and economic environment on the businesses that make up our client base; loss of clients for reasons beyond our control and the short-term contracts we typically use with our clients; the impact of regional or industry-specific economic and health factors on our operations; the impact of failures or limitations in the business systems and service centers we rely upon; the impact of discontinuing our discretionary credits on our business and client loyalty and retention; changes in our insurance coverage or our relationships with key insurance carriers; our ability to improve our services and technology to satisfy client and regulatory expectations; our ability to effectively integrate businesses we have acquired or may acquire in the future; our ability to effectively manage and improve our operational effectiveness and resiliency; our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the effects of increased competition and our ability to compete effectively; the impact on our business of cyber-attacks, breaches, disclosures and other data-related incidents; our ability to protect against and remediate cyber-attacks, breaches, disclosures and other data-related incidents, whether intentional or inadvertent and whether attributable to us or our service providers; our ability to comply with constantly evolving data privacy and security laws; our ability to manage changes in, uncertainty regarding, or adverse application of the complex laws and regulations that govern our business; changing laws and regulations governing health insurance and employee benefits; our ability to be recognized as an employer of worksite employees and for our benefits plans to satisfy all requirements under federal and state regulations; changes in the laws and regulations that govern what it means to be an employer, employee or independent contractor; the impact of new and changing laws regarding remote work; our ability to comply with the licensing requirements that govern our HCM solutions; the outcome of existing and future legal and tax proceedings; fluctuation in our results of operations and stock price due to factors outside of our control; our ability to comply with the restrictions of our credit facility and meet our debt obligations; and the impact of concentrated ownership in our stock by Atairos and other large stockholders. Any of these factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from our anticipated results.

– stock based compensation expense,

– amortization of cloud computing

arrangements, and

– transaction and integration costs.

 

• Provides period-to-period comparisons on a

consistent basis and an understanding as to

how our management evaluates the

effectiveness of our business strategies by

excluding certain non-recurring costs, which

include transaction and integration costs, as

well as certain non-cash charges such as

depreciation and amortization, and stock-

based compensation and certain impairment

charges recognized based on the estimated

fair values. We believe these charges are

either not directly resulting from our core

operations or not indicative of our ongoing

operations.

• Enhances comparisons to prior periods

and, accordingly, facilitates the development

of future projections and earnings growth

prospects.

• Provides a measure, among others, used

in the determination of incentive compensation

for management.

• We also sometimes refer to Adjusted EBITDA

margin, which is the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA

to total revenues.

Adjusted Net Income

• Net income, excluding the effects of:

– effective income tax rate (1),

– stock based compensation,

– amortization of intangible assets, net,

– non-cash interest expense (2),

– transaction and integration costs, and

– the income tax effect (at our effective tax

rate (1) of these pre-tax adjustments.

• Provides information to our stockholders and

board of directors to understand how our

management evaluates our business, to monitor

and evaluate our operating results, and analyze

profitability of our ongoing operations and trends

on a consistent basis by excluding certain non-

cash charges.

Corporate Operating Cash Flows

• Net cash provided by (used in) operating

activities, excluding the effects of: 

– Assets associated with WSEs (accounts

receivable, unbilled revenue, prepaid

expenses, other payroll assets and other

current assets) and

– Liabilities associated with WSEs (client

deposits and other client liabilities, accrued

wages, payroll tax liabilities and other payroll

withholdings, accrued health insurance

costs, accrued workers’ compensation costs,

insurance premiums and other payables, and

other current liabilities).

• Provides information that our stockholders and

management can use to evaluate our cash flows

from operations independent of the current assets

and liabilities associated with our WSEs.

• Enhances comparisons to prior periods and,

accordingly, used as a liquidity measure to manage

liquidity between corporate and WSE related

activities, and to help determine and plan our cash

flow and capital strategies.
