FIRST QUARTER 2016 RESULTS

REPORTED BY AMPHENOL CORPORATION

Wallingford, Connecticut. April 20, 2016.  Amphenol Corporation (NYSE:APH) reported today first quarter 2016 diluted earnings per share of $0.59 (excluding one-time items) compared to first quarter 2015 results of $0.57.  On an as reported basis, first quarter 2016 diluted earnings per share was $0.50.  Such per share amount for the 2016 quarter includes a charge for acquisition-related costs of $30 million ($0.09 per share) relating to our acquisition of FCI Asia Pte Ltd (FCI) on January 8, 2016.  Acquisition-related costs include external transaction costs, amortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog and restructuring charges.  Sales for the first quarter of 2016 were $1.451 billion compared to $1.327 billion for the 2015 period. Currency translation had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $20 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the 2015 period.

 

Amphenol President and Chief Executive Officer, R. Adam Norwitt, stated, “We are very pleased to report results above the high end of our guidance despite the challenging

 



 

economic environment, with first quarter 2016 sales and EPS excluding one-time items of $1.451 billion and $0.59, respectively.  Compared to the first quarter 2015, sales increased by 9%, driven by contributions from the Company’s successful acquisition program, with growth in the mobile networks, information technology and data communications, industrial and automotive markets offset in part by modest declines in the mobile devices and military markets.  I am particularly pleased that FCI had an excellent first quarter as part of the Amphenol family, and we look forward to continuing to work with the FCI team to capitalize on the wide range of future opportunities to drive stronger performance.  Our unique entrepreneurial culture continues to enable strong operating results, as reflected in the Company’s operating margins excluding one-time items reaching 18.6% in the first quarter 2016.  This excellent profitability, especially considering the currently lower operating margins of FCI, is a direct result of our dynamic management team’s ability to drive disciplined operational execution together with an unrelenting focus on all elements of cost.  Operating cash flow in the quarter was $194 million, an outstanding performance and a clear confirmation of the quality of the Company’s earnings.  I am very proud of our organization as we continue to execute extremely well, despite an uncertain market environment.”

 

“In addition to our successful acquisition program, the Company continues to deploy its financial strength in a variety of ways to increase shareholder value.  This includes the purchase, during the quarter, of 1.0 million shares of the Company’s stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plan, bringing total repurchases for the plan to over 5.5 million shares.  The Company also entered into a new revolving credit facility during the quarter, which replaced the previous $1.5 billion revolving credit facility and increased our borrowing capacity to $2.0 billion”

 



 

“The current global economic environment remains volatile and uncertain.  Considering this environment and based on current currency exchange rates, we expect second quarter 2016 sales in the range of $1.495 billion to $1.535 billion, an increase over 2015 of 11% to 14%.  We expect second quarter 2016 diluted EPS in the range of $0.62 to $0.64, an increase over 2015 of 7% to 10% (excluding one-time items).  For the full year 2016, we expect to achieve sales in the range of $6.080 billion to $6.200 billion, an increase over 2015 of 9% to 11%.  We expect diluted EPS of $2.56 to $2.62 (excluding one-time items) for the full year 2016, an increase of 5% to 8% over 2015.  This compares to our prior full year 2016 guidance of $6.040 billion to $6.200 billion in sales and $2.54 to $2.62 in EPS excluding one-time items”

 

“Notwithstanding the continued uncertainty in the global economic environment, we remain extremely excited about the future.  The electronics revolution continues to create a significant, long-term growth opportunity for Amphenol, with new applications and higher performance requirements driving increased demand for our high technology products across all of our end markets.  Our ongoing actions to strengthen our competitive advantages and build sustained financial strength, as well as our initiatives to broaden and diversify our high technology product offering both organically and through our successful acquisition program, have created a solid base for future performance.  I am confident in the ability of our outstanding management team to dynamically adjust to the constantly changing market environment, to continue to generate strong profitability and to further capitalize on the many opportunities to expand our market position.”
