FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BLACK BOX CORPORATION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2014 RESULTS
- Increases share repurchase program by one million shares -
PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA, January 28, 2014 - Black Box Corporation (NASDAQ:BBOX), a leading communications system integrator dedicated to designing, sourcing, implementing and maintaining today's complex communications solutions, today reported results for the third quarter of Fiscal 2014 and nine-month period ended December 28, 2013.
3Q14 Results
Revenues were $239.7 million, down 5% from $252.1 million for the same period last year and down 3% from $246.8 million in the sequential period.
Provision for income taxes was $2.5 million (27.5% effective rate), down 52% from $5.2 million (38.0% effective rate) for the same period last year and down 55% from $5.7 million (50.3% effective rate) in the sequential period. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due to a decrease in uncertain income tax positions (including interest and penalties) and the benefit associated with the Fiscal 2013 federal return to provision reconciliation.
Net income was $6.7 million, down 22% from $8.5 million for the same period last year and up 19% from $5.6 million in the sequential period.
Diluted EPS was $0.42, down 19% from $0.52 for the same period last year and up 20% from $0.35 in the sequential period.
Operating net income* was $7.7 million, down 41% from $13.0 million for the same period last year and down 20% from $9.6 million in the sequential period.
Operating EPS* was $0.49, down 38% from $0.79 for the same period last year and down 18% from $0.60 in the sequential period.
Cash flow used for operations was $1.6 million compared to cash provided by operations of $16.3 million for the same period last year and $8.9 million in the sequential period.
We returned $7.4 million to our shareholders by repurchasing $6.0 million of common stock and paying $1.4 million in dividends. On January 27, 2014, our Board of Directors approved an additional 1.0 million shares for repurchase.

3QYTD14 Results
Revenues were $733.4 million, down 4% from $760.1 million for the same period last year.
Provision for income taxes was $12.7 million (39.9% effective rate), down 4% from $13.2 million (38.0% effective rate) for the same period last year. The increase in the effective tax rate is due to the write-off of certain deferred tax assets related to equity awards partially offset by a decrease in uncertain tax positions (including interest and penalties) and the benefit associated with the Fiscal 2013 federal return to provision reconciliation.
Net income was $19.1 million, down 11% from $21.6 million for the same period last year.
Diluted EPS was $1.20, down 6% from $1.28 for the same period last year.
Operating net income* was $26.1 million, down 23% from $33.6 million for the same period last year.
Operating EPS* was $1.63, down 18% from $1.99 for the same period last year.
Cash flow provided by operations was $27.9 million, down 9% from $30.7 million for the same period last year.
We returned $23.0 million to our shareholders by repurchasing $18.8 million of common stock and paying $4.2 million in dividends.
* See the information under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a discussion regarding the usefulness of the non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release, definitions of those non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Commenting on the third quarter of Fiscal 2014 results, Michael McAndrew, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our third quarter results were consistent with the expectations set last quarter.  We continue to focus our efforts on investing in initiatives that will drive long-term growth and generate a return on capital.  Our strong balance sheet and commitment to build new revenue generating programs provide the basis for our continued transformation.”

Exhibit 99.1

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As a supplement to United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides non-GAAP financial measures such as operating income before provision for income taxes ("EBIT"), operating net income, operating earnings per share ("EPS"), same-office revenues, adjusted operating income, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to illustrate the Company's operational performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all of the Company's competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled measures of the Company's competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. However, each of the amounts included in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures are computed in accordance with GAAP. See below for reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate the Company's historical and prospective financial performance as well as its performance relative to its competitors, (b) to set internal sales targets and associated operating budgets, (c) to allocate resources and (d) to measure operational profitability. Management uses similar non-GAAP measures as an important factor in determining variable compensation for Management and its team members.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP financial measures. The Company's non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Operating EBIT, operating net income and operating EPS
Management believes that operating EBIT, defined by the Company as net income plus provision for income taxes and adjustments, operating net income, defined by the Company as operating EBIT less operational income taxes, and operating EPS, defined as operating net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding (diluted), provide investors additional important information to enable them to assess, in the way Management assesses, the Company's current and future operations. Adjustments include intangibles amortization, the change in fair value of the interest-rate swaps and the joint venture investment loss (FY14 loss relates to the write-off of certain non-operating items due to the expected divestiture of our non-controlling interest in Genesis Networks Integration Services, LLC. ("GNIS") while the FY13 loss relates to the expected divestiture of our non-controlling interest in GNIS), each of which are non-cash charges, and restructuring, which is a cash charge.

(1) The decrease in the effective tax rate during 3Q14 and the increase in the effective tax rate during 3QYTD14 relative to 3Q13 and 3QYTD13 is due to the write-off of certain deferred tax assets related to equity awards partially offset by a decrease in uncertain income tax positions (including interest and penalties) and the benefit associated with the Fiscal 2013 federal return to provision reconciliation.

(2) The effective tax rate used to determine operational income taxes is based on the Company's projected full-year ordinary income tax expense and the projected full-year impact of certain discreet tax items.

Segment Information
In connection with a new management team and a renewed business strategy, the Company has realigned its organizational structure which resulted in new operating segments (North America Products, North America Services, International Products and International Services) for the purpose of making operational decisions and assessing financial performance which was effective, on a prospective basis, beginning on April 1, 2013. The Company has restated prior period information to conform to the current year's presentation. Management believes that Adjusted operating income, defined by the Company as Operating income plus adjustments, provides investors additional important information to enable them to assess, in the way Management assesses, the Company's current and future operations. Adjustments include intangibles amortization and restructuring expense.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Management believes that EBITDA, defined as Net income plus provision for income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization, is a widely-accepted measure of profitability that may be used to measure the Company's ability to service its debt. Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA plus stock compensation expense, may also be used to measure the Company's ability to service its debt.
A reconciliation of Net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is presented below:

Free cash flow
Management believes that free cash flow, defined by the Company as Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities less net capital expenditures, plus Proceeds from stock option exercises, plus or minus Foreign currency exchange impact on cash, is an important measurement of liquidity as it represents the total cash available to the Company.
