Imation’s 4th Quarter Sales Jump 23% to
$334.4 Million on Record Data Storage Revenue;
Full Year E.P.S. of $2.25 on Continuing Operations
Grew 9.8% on $1.16 Billion in Sales
OAKDALE, Minn. (January 27, 2004) —Imation Corp. (NYSE:IMN), a leading supplier of removable data storage media, reported strong financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2003. Total fourth quarter revenue of $334.4 million, up 23 percent from the comparable quarter a year ago, was driven by a record $321.5 million in Data Storage and Information Management segment revenue, fueled by continued strong growth in recordable and rewriteable optical disk products. In addition, the Company recorded overall tape storage product revenue growth.
For the quarter, the Company reported income from continuing operations of $24.7 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.68, (including $0.13 per share benefit in special items described below). This compares with income from continuing operations of $21.0 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.58, (including $0.04 per share benefit in special items also described below) on $270.9 million in revenue for the fourth quarter of 2002.
For the full year, the Company reported income from continuing operations of $81.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.25, (including $0.15 per share benefit in special items described below) on revenue of $1.16 billion. This compares with income from continuing operations of $73.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.05, for fiscal 2002 (including $0.19 per share benefit in special items described below) on revenue of $1.07 billion. Excluding these items from both periods, diluted earnings per share of $2.10 for the full year 2003 was up 12.9 percent over diluted earnings per share of $1.86 for the full year 2002. See Business Results Summary for details.
Commenting on the results, Imation Chairman and CEO Bill Monahan said, “the strong finish in Q4 enabled us to exceed the full year revenue and earnings target ranges we had set at the start of last year. Strength in our existing data storage business, combined with our strategic growth initiatives, continues to drive excellent financial results as we gain share and expand our market presence around the globe. We experienced growth across our portfolio, led by strong growth in optical disks and in our LTO Ultrium tape line as well solid growth in some data center tape products. With record low SG&A of 12.6 percent to sales in Q4, our sustainable and efficient business model leverages existing infrastructure to support our strategic growth initiatives without adding structure, while delivering solid earnings growth as we build for the future.”
“We generated $81 million in cash from operations this year, which enabled us to invest more than $100 million in future growth of the business, contribute $28 million in pension funding, return more than $28 million to shareholders through cash dividends and stock buyback and still end the year with a solid cash position of more than $400 million,” Monahan concluded.
Frank Russomanno, Chief Operating Officer of Imation said, “Imation is extremely well positioned for 2004 due to our share gains and improving demand across the market. With our global reach, tape technology leadership, broad product portfolio, channel expertise and momentum in the fast growing optical storage market we are strengthening our position as the data storage removable media leader at a time when the market recognizes the increasing value of data.”
“We continue to expand our product portfolio and distribution reach through our Global Data Media joint venture with Moser Baer in India and the Exabyte brand distribution agreement both initiated in 2003. In the consumer optical market, we recently announced an exciting brand distribution agreement with Napster and Target Stores. Technology co-development initiatives for new tape formats, along with our investment in our state-of-the-art Weatherford, Oklahoma tape coater line, allow us to support our key data center and network customers as we continue our momentum into 2004 and beyond,” Russomanno concluded.
Business Results Summary
Both revenue and earnings per share were above the range the Company had projected for the quarter due to stronger than anticipated global demand. Data Storage volume growth of 27 percent globally and foreign currency exchange rate benefits of approximately five percent were partially offset by price erosion between seven and eight percent for the quarter.
Results for the fourth quarter of 2003 include special items that increased pre-tax income by a net $7.2 million. They include a gain of $11.1 million primarily related to final resolution of outstanding transition services payments for the color proofing business sold in 2001 and a $0.7 million reversal of previously recorded charges due to lower than expected costs of restructuring. Offsetting these gains was a $4.6 million impairment of a loan to a contract manufacturer. Fourth quarter of 2002 included a pre-tax gain of $2.0 million from the reversal of previously recorded charges due to lower than expected costs of restructuring.
Results for the full year 2003 include special items that increased pre-tax income by a net $8.2 million, primarily from the factors previously discussed. Results for the full year 2002 include special items that increased pre-tax income by a net $10.4 million, primarily associated with litigation gains and the reversal of previously recorded restructuring charges. (See reconciliation of reported to adjusted results schedule at the end of this release.)
Gross profit margin of 26.4 percent for the fourth quarter and 28.8 percent for the year were down from 31.6 percent and 30.7 percent respectively for the comparable periods a year ago, as the Company continues to drive operating earnings growth through its strategic growth initiatives resulting in a higher mix of lower gross margin products. In addition, gross margin was impacted by increased cost of outsourced optical products and some start-up costs associated with its new tape manufacturing operation. These impacts were offset somewhat by improved mid-range tape gross margins in the fourth quarter compared with the third quarter of 2003.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) spending for the full year declined more than $10 million, down 2.3 percentage points to 14.3 percent of revenue for the full year and a record low 12.6 percent of revenue in the fourth quarter.
Research and Development (R&D) spending totaled $16.1 million, or 4.8 percent of revenue for the fourth quarter and $57.0 million, or 4.9 percent of revenue for the full year, up from the $13.8 million and $50.6 million totals for the comparable periods a year ago. Spending increases were the result of planned investments in new storage formats.
Operating Income totaled $37.3 million for the fourth quarter and $119.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $30.4 million and $110.7 million for the comparable periods a year ago. Adjusting for the special items previously discussed, operating income grew 11.1 percent for the full year.
Net non-operating expense of $0.6 million in the quarter reflects the impact of currency transaction losses and other costs, partially offset by interest earned on cash. This compares to net non-operating income for the same period a year ago of $1.9 million, due to higher interest rates as well as positive currency transaction gains a year ago. The tax rate for both the quarter and the year was 33 percent. Working capital performance improved with receivables days sales outstanding ending at 46 days, down one day from Q3, and inventory days of supply ending at 71 days, down nine days from Q3.
Capital spending totaled $21.3 million for the quarter and $75.1 million for the full year, driven by investment in the Weatherford, Oklahoma, magnetic tape coating facility. Depreciation and amortization totaled $10.7 million for the quarter and $39.0 million for the full year.
Cash from operations totaled $30.2 million in the quarter, the best performance of the year, and $81.0 million for the year. Ending cash and equivalents totaled $411.4 million. During the quarter, $13.3 million of cash was also invested in high quality interest bearing securities with maturities greater than one year and is now classified as non-current assets. Overall cash declined due to several planned factors including investments in future growth, funding of pension obligations and cash returned to shareholders through stock repurchase and dividends. Cash flow for investing activities totaled $129.6 million for the year, including $20 million associated with the Exabyte brand distribution agreement that occurred in the fourth quarter. The Company also spent $5.3 million in the quarter to buy back 155,000 shares of common stock and paid out $2.8 million in dividends to shareholders. For the full year, the Company has bought back 585,000 shares for $20 million in cash and authorization for repurchase of an additional 2.2 million shares remains outstanding. The Company also paid out more than $8.5 million in dividends to shareholders for the full year.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK
The following statements are based on the Company’s current goals for fiscal year 2004, subject to the risks and uncertainties described below.
• | Total company revenue growth for the full year 2004 is targeted to range between ten and 15 percent or between a range of $1.28 billion and $1.34 billion. | |
• | Full year 2004 operating income is targeted to range between $120 million and $123 million. In 2003, the Company reported operating income of $119.6 million using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) treatment. The Company’s current operating income outlook would be essentially flat to up approximately three percent compared with the 2003 GAAP operating income. However, operating income for 2003 included benefits of $8.2 million from special items described above. Using an adjusted base operating income for fiscal 2003 of $111.4 million without those special items, full year 2004 operating income from continuing operations is estimated to grow between eight and ten percent over 2003. Due to very strong operating income recorded in the first quarter of 2003, the Company anticipates that year-over-year operating income growth will be strongest in the second half of the year. | |
• | The tax rate is currently targeted to be in the range of 35 to 36 percent. The Company could see a lower tax rate in 2004 if certain tax benefits are recognized, but is unable to project with certainty those benefits at this time. | |
• | Capital spending is targeted to be approximately $45 million. | |
• | Depreciation and amortization is targeted to be in the range of $45 to $50 million. |
