  • Sales for the quarter ended January 2, 2016, decreased 9.3% year over year and 5.1% in constant currency to $6.85 billion, organic sales (as defined later in this release) declined 9.7% year over year and 5.5% in constant currency
  • Adjusted operating income of $255.3 million decreased 7.0% year over year and adjusted operating income margin of 3.7% increased 9 basis points year over year
  • Adjusted net income of $164.3 million decreased 6.6% and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.22 decreased 3.9% year over year
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share was negatively impacted by approximately $0.07, or 5.5%, from the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the year ago quarter
  • The Company repurchased approximately 900,000 shares during the second quarter representing an aggregate investment of $39.9 million and has invested an additional $65 million thus far in the third quarter

Rick Hamada, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our team stayed focused on profitability as both gross profit and adjusted operating income margins expanded year over year even as revenue came in near the low end of expectations due to weaker demand in the Americas region. This softness resulted in below seasonal sequential growth and revenue declined 5.1% year over year in constant currency. Our EMEA region continued their multi-quarter growth trend as revenue increased 3.5% year over year in constant currency led by continued strength in our Electronics Marketing (EM) business. The focus on profitable growth and continued portfolio management at Technology Solutions (TS) helped drive enterprise gross profit margin up 27 basis points year over year. This improvement in gross profit margin and continued expense reductions were offset by the translation impact of the stronger U.S. Dollar as operating income declined 7% year over year in reported dollars and 0.8% in constant currency. While economic indicators suggest a slower growth environment as we enter calendar 2016, we continue to invest in our organic growth initiatives including Internet of Things, embedded solutions, and third platform technologies. Finally, given our strong cash flow and disciplined share repurchase program, we are taking advantage of the current market pullback to increase the investment in our equity."

(1) Year-over-year sales growth rate excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
 
  • Sales decreased 3.4% in constant currency and reported sales decreased 7.2% year over year to $4.11 billion
  • Operating income decreased 9.1% year over year to $174.0 million and operating income margin decreased 9 basis points as strength in the EMEA region was offset by weakness in Americas and Asia
  • Working capital (defined as receivables plus inventories less accounts payables) was essentially flat sequentially and inventory declined 5.6% from the September quarter

Mr. Hamada added, "In our December quarter, EM's revenue was at the low end of expectations due to slower than expected sequential growth in our high volume supply chain engagements in Asia and weaker demand in industrial markets in our Americas region. As a result, revenue declined 7.6% sequentially in constant currency (1% excluding the extra week in our September quarter) and 3.4% year over year. Year-over-year declines in our Asia and Americas regions were partially offset by another strong quarter in our EMEA region where revenue grew 7.5% in constant currency. Our EMEA team leveraged their multi-quarter trend of organic growth into improved profitability as operating income grew nearly twice as fast as revenue in constant currency and operating income margin expanded year over year for the seventh consecutive quarter. Despite this performance in EMEA, EM's operating income declined 9.1% from the year ago quarter driven by the declines in the other regions and the translation impact of the stronger U.S. Dollar. Our book to bill ratio of 0.98 to 1.0 finished below parity for the third consecutive quarter. In this environment of slower growth and mixed economic signals, we will continue to focus on aligning our resources with current market conditions."

(1) Year-over-year sales growth rate excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
 
  • Reported sales decreased 7.6% in constant currency and reported sales decreased 12.3% year over year to $2.73 billion, organic sales declined 13.2% year over year and 8.5% in constant currency
  • Operating income decreased 0.4% to $117.1 million and operating income margin increased 51 basis points year over year to 4.3%
  • ROWC increased 318 basis points year over year primarily due to continued progress in EMEA and the realized benefits from portfolio actions taken in prior quarters
  • At a product level, year-over-year growth in networking, software, and services was offset by a decline in storage and computing components

Mr. Hamada further added, "TS experienced a weaker than expected close in our Americas region, which led to below seasonal growth in the typically strong December quarter. Revenue declined 12.2% year over year in our Americas region driven by declines in storage and computing components, coupled with softer demand in Latin America. This resulted in TS sequential growth of 19.6% (after adjusting for currency and the extra week in the September quarter) as compared with our typical seasonal growth of 26% to 30%. TS EMEA's organic revenue declined 2% year over year in constant currency as 5% growth in our core business was offset by a decline in our computing components business. TS Asia's revenue declined 23% year over year with a third of this decline related to the translation impact of the stronger U.S. Dollar. Despite this revenue decline, our ongoing portfolio and expense management had a positive impact on profitability as both gross profit and operating income margins improved year over year in all three regions. For calendar 2015, TS' operating income margin improved 40 basis points over calendar 2014 to 3.3%, representing meaningful progress toward our target range of 3.4% to 3.9%. With continued momentum at TS EMEA and our investments in higher growth third platform technologies gaining traction, we expect to drive further improvements in margins and returns over time."

Cash Flow/Dividend

  • Cash generated from operations was $118.0 million in the December quarter and for the trailing twelve months cash generated from operations was $443.7 million
  • Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter was $916.1 million; net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was $1.29 billion
  • During the past twelve months, the Company repurchased 5.7 million shares, or 4.1% of diluted shares outstanding, representing an aggregate investment of $239.6 million
  • Entering the third fiscal quarter, the Company had $367.4 million remaining under the current repurchase authorization
  • The Company paid a dividend of $0.17 per share or $22.4 million during the quarter

Kevin Moriarty, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "Cash flow from operations for the December quarter was approximately $118 million and $444 million for the trailing twelve months. During the quarter, we repurchased $40 million of our shares and following the recent decline in equity markets, we have invested an additional $65 million in our share repurchase program quarter to date. We still have approximately $303 million remaining in our share repurchase program and are prepared to continue to invest in our stock when it presents a compelling value. Our focus on operating efficiencies, including our Avnet Advantage initiative, contributed toward operating leverage in the first half of fiscal 2016 as adjusted operating expense as a percentage of gross profit declined 106 basis points to 68.4%, compared to the first half of fiscal 2015. We ended the quarter with approximately $916 million in cash, which when combined with our strong cash flow generation, provides ample liquidity to invest in profitable growth going forward."

Outlook for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2016 Ending on April 2, 2016

  • EM sales are expected to be in the range of $3.85 billion to $4.15 billion and TS sales are expected to be in the range of $2.15 billion to $2.45 billion
  • Avnet sales are expected to be in the range of $6.0 billion to $6.6 billion.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.93 to $1.03 per share
  • The guidance assumes 134 million average diluted shares outstanding and a tax rate of 26% to 30%

The above guidance excludes the amortization of intangibles and any potential restructuring, integration and other expenses. In addition, the above guidance assumes that the average U.S. Dollar to Euro currency exchange rate is $1.09 to €1.00. This compares with an average exchange rate of $1.13 to €1.00 in the third quarter of fiscal 2015.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in facts and circumstances. The forward-looking statements herein include statements addressing future financial and operating results of Avnet and may include words such as "will," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "forecast," "expect," "feel," "believe," and "should," and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussions of future operating or financial performance, business prospects or market conditions. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations contained in the forward-looking statements.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the Company's ability to retain and grow market share and to generate additional cash flow, risks associated with any acquisition activities and the successful integration of acquired companies, declines in sales, changes in business conditions and the economy in general, changes in market demand and pricing pressures, any material changes in the allocation of product or product rebates by suppliers, and other competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting the businesses of Avnet generally.

More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in Avnet's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Except as required by law, Avnet is under no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), the Company also discloses in this document certain non-GAAP financial information including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, as well as sales adjusted for the impact of acquisitions and other items (as defined in the Organic Sales section of this document). There are also references to the impact of foreign currency in the discussion of the Company's results of operations. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet's subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens and the weaker exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet's subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is an increase in U.S. Dollars of reported results. In the discussion of the Company's results of operations, results excluding this impact are referred to as "excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates" or "constant currency." Management believes organic sales and sales in constant currency are useful measures for evaluating current period performance as compared with prior periods and for understanding underlying trends. In order to determine the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates for sales, income or expense items, the Company adjusts the exchange rates used in current periods to be consistent with the exchange rates in effect during prior periods.

Management believes that operating income and operating expenses adjusted for (i) restructuring, integration and other expenses and (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and other, are useful measures to help investors better assess and understand the Company's operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of Avnet's normal operating results or non-cash in nature. Management analyzes operating income and operating expenses without the impact of these items as an indicator of ongoing margin performance and underlying trends in the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in many cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes.

Additional non-GAAP metrics management uses are adjusted operating income margin, which is defined as adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by sales and adjusted operating expense to gross profit ratio, which is defined as adjusted operating expenses (as defined above) divided by gross profit.

Management also believes net income and diluted EPS adjusted for (i) the impact of the items described above, (ii) certain items impacting other expense and (iii) certain items impacting income tax expense is useful to investors because it provides a measure of the Company's net profitability on a more comparable basis to historical periods and provides a more meaningful basis for forecasting future performance. Additionally, because of management's focus on generating shareholder value, of which net profitability is a primary driver, management believes net income and diluted EPS excluding the impact of these items provides an important measure of the Company's net profitability for the investing public.

Other metrics management monitors in its assessment of business performance include return on working capital (ROWC), return on capital employed (ROCE) and working capital velocity (WC velocity).

  • ROWC is defined as annualized adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable.
  • ROCE is defined as annualized, tax effected adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the monthly average balances of interest-bearing debt and equity (including the impact of adjustments to operating income discussed above) less cash and cash equivalents.
  • WC velocity is defined as annualized sales divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable.

Any analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Organic Sales

Organic sales is defined as reported sales adjusted for the impact of more than insignificant acquisitions and divestitures by adjusting Avnet's prior periods to include the sales of acquired businesses and exclude the sales of divested businesses as if the acquisitions and divestitures had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. In addition, fiscal 2016 sales are adjusted for the estimated impact of the extra week of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 due to it being a 14-week quarter and 53-week fiscal year. Organic sales in constant currency is defined as organic sales (as defined above) excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates as discussed above.

The following tables present the reconciliation of reported sales to organic sales for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015.
