Arrow Electronics Reports Third-Quarter Results
-- Sales of $4.96 Billion and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share of $1.02 --
-- Generated More Than $630 Million in Cash from Operations over Last 12 Months --
 
 
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 31, 2012--Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) today reported third-quarter 2012 net income of $103.6 million, or $.94 per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income of $132.2 million, or $1.15 per share on a diluted basis in 2011. Excluding certain items in both 2012 and 2011 as described in the non-GAAP earnings reconciliation table found below, net income of $112.2 million, or $1.02 per share on a diluted basis, in the third quarter of 2012 compared with net income of $138.3 million, or $1.20 per share on a diluted basis, in the third quarter of 2011.
 
In the third quarter of 2012, the company prospectively revised its presentation of sales related to certain fulfillment contracts to present these revenues on an agency basis as net fees, as compared to presenting gross sales and costs of sales in prior periods. On a gross basis, these contracts would have contributed approximately $176.5 million, or 3.4 percent, to the company's sales in the third quarter of 2012. Within the company’s statement of operations, this revised presentation had no impact on gross profit dollars, operating income dollars, net income dollars, and earnings per share for any periods reported. It also had no impact on the company’s consolidated balance sheet or statement of cash flows.
 
Third-quarter sales of $4.96 billion declined 4 percent from sales of $5.19 billion in the prior year. Pro forma for acquisitions and excluding the impact of both foreign currency and the aforementioned change in revenue presentation, sales were flat year over year. Third-quarter operating income as a percentage of sales declined 70 basis points year over year. Pro forma for acquisitions and the aforementioned change in revenue presentation, operating income as a percentage of sales decreased 90 basis points year over year.
 
“The third quarter again demonstrated our strong execution in what continues to be a challenging global macroeconomic environment. We reported third-quarter revenue of $5.0 billion and EPS of $1.02, both in line with our expectations,” said Michael J. Long, chairman, president, and chief executive officer. “Our fundamentals are strong and we continue to focus on operating the business for the long-term health of Arrow.”
 
“Our cash flow generation was strong again this quarter, bringing the total amount generated over the last twelve months to more than $630 million or nearly double our targeted conversion rate,” said Paul J. Reilly, executive vice president, finance and operations and chief financial officer. “Return on invested capital remains an important metric for us, and we again generated returns in excess of our weighted average cost of capital.”
 
Global components third-quarter sales of $3.37 billion decreased 8 percent year over year. Pro forma for acquisitions and excluding the impact of both foreign currency and the aforementioned change in revenue presentation, sales were flat year over year. Sales in the Asia Pacific region increased 10 percent year over year, driven by the core business and a rebound in the company’s Ultra Source business. In the Americas sales declined 1 percent year over year due to a weaker overall market as well as customer cautiousness. European sales were down 4 percent year over year in local currency as the macroeconomic environment continues to impact the region.
 
 
 

 
 
Global enterprise computing solutions (“ECS”) third-quarter sales of $1.59 billion increased 3 percent year over year. This represents the 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year organic growth for the ECS team. On a global basis, solid year-over-year growth in storage and software was offset by continued weakness in the server market. In the third quarter the company saw good performance in the Americas, with sales in the core value-added distribution business in line with expectations in a seasonally slow quarter. In Europe, the team delivered solid results in line with normal seasonality on a local currency basis, even as market conditions weakened somewhat in the region. The company’s matrix expansion strategy remains a key driver of the successes in the region.
 
NINE-MONTH RESULTS
 
Arrow’s net income for the first nine months of 2012 was $331.6 million, or $2.96 per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income of $424.7 million, or $3.64 per share on a diluted basis, in the first nine months of 2011. Sales of $15.00 billion declined 6 percent year over year from sales of $15.95 billion in the year-ago period. Pro forma for acquisitions and excluding the impact of both foreign currency and the aforementioned change in revenue presentation, sales declined 3 percent year over year in the first nine months of 2012.
 
Excluding certain items in both the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 as described in the non-GAAP earnings reconciliation found below, net income would have been $356.0 million, or $3.18 per share on a diluted basis, for the first nine months of 2012 compared with $444.1 million, or $3.81 per share on a diluted basis, for the first nine months of 2011.
 
GUIDANCE
 
“Looking ahead, we believe that total fourth-quarter sales will be between $5.1 and $5.5 billion, with global components sales between $3.0 and $3.2 billion and global enterprise computing solutions sales between $2.1 and $2.3 billion. Earnings per share, on a diluted basis, excluding any charges, are expected to be in the range of $1.01 to $1.13. Our guidance assumes that average diluted shares outstanding are 107.3 million and the average Euro to USD exchange rate for the fourth quarter is 1.29 to 1,” said Mr. Reilly.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information
 
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information relating to operating income, net income attributable to shareholders and net income per basic and diluted share, each as adjusted for certain charges, credits and losses that the company believes impact the comparability of its results of operations. These charges, credits and losses arise out of the company’s efficiency enhancement initiatives, acquisitions, and settlement of certain legal matters. A reconciliation of the company’s non-GAAP financial information to GAAP is set forth in the table below.
 
The company believes that such non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors to assist in assessing and understanding the company’s operating performance and underlying trends in the company’s business because management considers the charges, credits and losses referred to above to be outside the company’s core operating results. This non-GAAP financial information is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating the company’s financial and operating performance. In addition, the company’s Board of Directors may use this non-GAAP financial information in evaluating management performance and setting management compensation.
 
The presentation of this additional non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or alternative to, operating income, net income and net income per basic and diluted share determined in accordance with GAAP. Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP.
