CEO Commentary
Jerry Grisko, CBIZ President and Chief Executive Officer, said, We are pleased to report that our second-quarter results were generally in line with our expectations and that the overall health of our business remains strong. At the same time, we did experience a small number of unique headwinds that impacted our results for the quarter. Among these headwinds were the exit of a small group of producers from our Property and Casualty Insurance business and some evidence of clients delaying investment decisions and tightening discretionary spending. While our clients remain largely optimistic about the second half of the year, we find that any uncertainty in the market is amplified in an election year given concerns around regulations and interest rates. The nature of our resilient business model, with a high rate of recurring revenue and variable expense, enables us to maintain our performance even in less predictable business conditions.
Grisko continued, This morning we announced our agreement to acquire Marcum. After closing, the new, combined business will solidify our position as a leading provider of professional services to middle market businesses and is projected to be accretive to Adjusted Earnings in its first full year of operations. On a combined basis, we will become the seventh-largest accounting services provider in the country with revenues of approximately $2.8 billion, will employ over 10,000 team members and will serve more than 135,000 clients with a unique breadth of services and depth of expertise, including Benefits & Insurance services. We are excited about our future together and the opportunities this will provide to our people, the solutions we will bring to our clients, and the value we expect to create for our shareholders.
2024 Outlook
With an expected close in fourth quarter of 2024, our current guidance excludes the impact of the Marcum acquisition. Based on expectations for the remainder of 2024, and due to the projected $0.06 per share full year impact of the loss of Property and Casualty business, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue to grow within a range of 7% to 9% over the prior year.
Effective tax rate of approximately 28%.
Weighted average fully diluted share count of approximately 50.0 to 50.5 million shares.
GAAP fully diluted earnings per share to grow within a range of 6% to 8%, to $2.53 to $2.58 per share, compared with the $2.39 per share reported for 2023.
Adjusted fully diluted earnings per share to grow within a range of 10% to 12%, to $2.64 to $2.69 per share, compared with the $2.41 per share reported for 2023.
Conference Call
CBIZ will host a conference call at 11 a.m. (ET) today to discuss its second-quarter and first-half financial results as well as the Marcum acquisition announcement.

(1) CBIZ reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. This table reconciles Adjusted net income, Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, Net income and Diluted earnings per share. Adjusted net income, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined by GAAP and should not be regarded as an alternative or replacement to any financial information determined under GAAP. Adjusted net income, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA exclude significant non-operating related gains and losses that management does not consider on-going in nature. These Non-GAAP financial measures are used by the Company as performance measures to evaluate, assess and benchmark the Companys operational results and to evaluate results relative to employee compensation targets. Accordingly, the Company believes the presentation of these Non-GAAP financial measures allows its stockholders, debt holders, and other interested parties to meaningfully compare the Companys period-to-period operating results.
(2) These costs include, but are not limited to, certain consulting, technology, personnel, as well as other first year operating and general administrative costs that are non-recurring in nature. Amounts reported in 2024 related to the costs incurred related to the acquisitions of Erickson, Brown & Kloster, LLC and CompuData, Inc., and those reported in 2023 related to the acquisition of Somerset CAPs and Advisors.
(3) These costs relate to incremental non-recurring lease expense incurred as a result of CBIZs real estate optimization efforts.
