Arrow Electronics Reports Record Fourth Quarter Sales, Working Capital to Sales, and Return on Working Capital
Adjusted Earnings Per Share Advances 35% Year-over-Year in the Current Quarter
MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) today reported fourth quarter 2007 net income of $114.0 million ($.93 and $.92 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $4.42 billion, compared with net income of $128.1 million ($1.05 and $1.04 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $3.49 billion in the fourth quarter of 2006. Sales increased 26 percent year over year. On a pro forma basis, sales increased nine percent year over year as acquisitions also benefited sales growth. The company's results for the fourth quarters of 2007 and 2006 include a number of items outlined below that impact their comparability. A complete reconciliation of these items is provided under the heading “Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information.” Excluding those items, on a non-GAAP basis, net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 would have been $120.6 million ($.98 and $.97 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) and net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, would have been $88.6 million ($.72 per share on both a basic and diluted basis).
“We finished 2007 with outstanding performance in the fourth quarter. Sales, working capital to sales, and return on working capital were all at record levels, and exceptional cash flow generation of $220 million in the fourth quarter brought 2007 operating cash flow to $851 million,” said William E. Mitchell, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Our operating margin was again at an industry leading level and our balance sheet is at its strongest level in 10 years. We are doing this while continuing to invest in important initiatives that will take us to even greater levels of growth and profitability.”
Global enterprise computing solutions (“ECS”) sales of $1.61 billion increased 111 percent year over year. Growth was aided by the impact of the acquisitions of KeyLink Systems Group, Alternative Technology, Inc. and the storage and security distribution business of InTechnology plc. On a pro forma basis, sales increased 22 percent year over year on strong growth in proprietary servers, storage, software, and services. “Sales pro forma for acquisitions more than tripled the rate at which the overall market is expected to have grown and our operating margin strengthened significantly over last quarter, demonstrating the tremendous operating leverage in our business. Execution on our strategic objectives in 2007 has resulted in a much stronger organization with broader geographic reach into 22 countries, increased market share in the fast growing product segments of software and storage, and a more robust customer and supplier base. Arrow ECS is now the world's largest distributor of enterprise storage and security and virtualization software, and with increased scale, scope and capabilities, our strategy is resonating with our customers and suppliers,” added Mr. Mitchell.
Global components sales of $2.81 billion increased 3 percent year over year. “We again executed well and posted sales at the high end of expectations. In North America, we saw our first increase in daily run rate since the third quarter of 2006 and book to bill (the amount of sales booked for delivery as compared with sales that have been billed) was above one in each of the regions in which we operate. As we continued along the path to building best-in-class global capabilities and leveraging our global scale, we moved closer to our financial targets for the global components business in the fourth quarter. Operating income grew at more than three times the rate of sales growth and we reduced the amount of working capital needed to support sales by 160 basis points year over year. Our strategic initiatives around the world continue to take hold and we look forward to additional progress in the upcoming year,” Mr. Mitchell said.
The company's results for the fourth quarter of 2007 and 2006 include the items outlined below that impact their comparability:
- During the fourth quarter of 2007, the company recorded a restructuring and integration charge of $10.0 million ($6.6 million net of related taxes or $.05 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) primarily related to initiatives taken by the company to improve operating efficiencies.
- During the fourth quarter of 2006, the company settled certain tax matters covering multiple years. As such, the company recorded a reduction in the provision for income taxes of $44.7 million ($.37 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and related interest expense of $6.2 million ($3.8 million net of related taxes or $.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2006.
- During the fourth quarter of 2006, the company completed the valuation of identifiable intangibles associated with acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2005. Accordingly, the company recorded the related amortization expense for the full year in the fourth quarter of 2006. The impact on net income was a decrease of $1.2 million ($.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2006.
- During the fourth quarter of 2006, the company recorded restructuring and integration charges and costs associated with pre-acquisition warranty and environmental claims of $9.7 million ($7.8 million net of related taxes or $.07 per share on both a basic and diluted basis).
“Based upon the information known to us today, we expect normal seasonality in both our components and ECS businesses. We believe that total first quarter sales will be between $3.925 and $4.225 billion, with global component sales between $2.775 and $2.975 billion and global enterprise computing solutions sales between $1.15 and $1.25 billion. Earnings per share, on a diluted basis, excluding any charges and including estimated amortization of intangible assets of $.03 to $.04, are expected to be in the range of $.81 to $.87, an increase of 9 percent to 18 percent from last year’s first quarter,” said Paul J. Reilly, senior vice president and chief financial officer.
FULL YEAR RESULTS
Arrow’s net income for 2007 was $407.8 million ($3.31 and $3.28 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $16.0 billion, compared with net income of $388.3 million ($3.19 and $3.16 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $13.6 billion in 2006.
Net income for 2007 includes a restructuring and integration charge of $11.7 million ($7.0 million net of related taxes or $.06 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) primarily related to initiatives taken by the company to improve operating efficiencies and the acquisition of KeyLink. Net income for 2007 also includes an income tax benefit of $6.0 million, net, ($.05 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) principally due to a reduction in deferred income taxes as a result of the reduction in the statutory tax rate in Germany. Excluding these items, net income would have been $408.8 million ($3.32 and $3.29 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) for 2007.
Net income for 2006 includes a restructuring and integration charge and costs associated with pre-acquisition warranty and environmental claims of $16.1 million ($11.7 million net of related taxes or $.10 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and a loss on prepayment of debt of $2.6 million ($1.6 million net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis). During 2006, the company settled certain tax matters covering multiple years. As such, the company recorded a reduction in the provision for income taxes of $40.4 million ($.33 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) and related interest expense of $4.0 million ($2.4 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to tax years prior to 2006. Excluding these items, net income would have been $358.7 million ($2.95 and $2.92 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) for 2006.

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 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, the company’s acquisitions of other companies, certain income tax related matters, and the prepayment of debt. 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.

Effective April 1, 2007, the company's business segments were realigned as part of the company's continued efforts to strengthen its market leadership position, streamline the business, and further leverage cost synergies globally. The company's global components business was formed to bring a single, global organization to leverage the collective enterprise to speed services and solutions to customers and suppliers. The company's global ECS business was formed to bring a single organization with an expanded geographic reach, increased exposure in faster growing product segments, and a more robust customer and supplier base. As a result, the UK Microtronica, ATD (in Spain), and Arrow Computer Products (in France) businesses, previously included in the computer products business segment, were transitioned into the company's global components business segment. As a result of this realignment, global components and global ECS are the business segments upon which management primarily evaluates the operations of the company and upon which it bases its operating decisions. Prior period segment data was adjusted to conform to the current period presentation.
Effective January 1, 2007, stock option expense, which was previously included in corporate, has been allocated to global components, global ECS, and corporate. Prior period segment data was adjusted to conform with the current period presentation.
(a) | | Includes restructuring and integration charges of $10.0 million and $11.7 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2007, respectively, and restructuring and integration charges of $5.4 million and $11.8 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2006, respectively. Also includes a charge related to a pre-acquisition warranty claim of $2.8 million and a charge related to pre-acquisition environmental matters out of the company's purchase of Wyle of $1.4 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2006, respectively. |
