The company reported net income, on a GAAP basis, of $23.0 million, or $.40 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2006, compared to net income of $37.8 million, or $.64 per diluted share, for the prior year period.

“Our focused restructuring efforts in EMEA are delivering measurable operating improvements as demonstrated by our third-quarter results. We continue to generate industry-leading growth and operating results in the Americas — underscoring our position as a leading IT distributor,” commented Steven A. Raymund, Tech Data’s chairman and chief executive officer. “While we are pleased with the improvements we’ve made in our business, there is more work to be done. Through continued discipline and process enhancements, we expect to drive better worldwide operating results in the quarters ahead.”
Share Repurchase Program
The company also today announced that the Board of Directors has authorized the expansion of its existing share repurchase program. Under the expanded program, the company is authorized to repurchase in aggregate up to $200 million of common stock. During the third quarter, the company purchased 1.5 million shares of common stock at a cost of $54.8 million, bringing its total shares repurchased during fiscal 2006 under the program to 2.8 million shares at a value of $100 million. Jeffery P. Howells, executive vice president and chief financial officer, commented “Tech Data’s solid balance sheet and available cash provide the company with the flexibility to support a stock repurchase program while continuing to invest in our worldwide business. Combined with the company’s EMEA restructuring program efforts, our share repurchase program provides a solid platform for increased shareholder value over the long-term.”
Financial Summary
| • | | Net sales in the Americas during the third quarter were $2.5 billion, or 48 percent of worldwide net sales, while net sales in EMEA totaled $2.6 billion, or 52 percent of worldwide net sales. The Americas’ net sales increased 15.3 percent while net sales in EMEA decreased 0.4 percent (0.8 percent increase on a local currency basis) over the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Compared to the second quarter of the current fiscal year, net sales in the Americas increased 5.2 percent and in EMEA increased 5.5 percent (6.5 percent increase on a local currency basis). |
| • | | Gross margin for the third quarter was 5.15 percent of net sales, a decrease from 5.52 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. The year-over-year decline in gross margin was primarily attributable to challenges in the company’s EMEA operations and changes in customer and product mix in both regions. |
| • | | Third-quarter selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were $213.2 million, or 4.19 percent of net sales compared to $206.9 million, or 4.33 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Excluding the $3.2 million of consulting costs incurred in the EMEA region during the third quarter of fiscal 2006, SG&A totaled $210.0 million, or 4.13 percent of net sales. The year-over-year decline in SG&A as a percent of net sales was primarily attributable to cost saving initiatives and productivity improvements, particularly in EMEA, as the |

company begins to realize the benefits associated with the restructuring program. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding EMEA consulting costs, SG&A in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 declined $6.8 million as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006.
| • | | Third-quarter operating income in the Americas was 1.61 percent of net sales compared to 1.69 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. In EMEA, operating income was ..17 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to .78 percent of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding restructuring charges and consulting costs, the company had operating income of .48 percent of net sales in EMEA in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. This is an improvement from an operating loss, on a non-GAAP basis, of (.09) percent of net sales in the second quarter of the current fiscal year. |
| • | | Total debt to total capital was 16 percent at October 31, 2005. |
EMEA Restructuring Program
The company recorded $4.8 million of charges during the third quarter of fiscal 2006 related to its EMEA restructuring program which were comprised of $4.3 million related to workforce reductions and $.5 million related to facility consolidations. Year-to-date, the company has recorded $24.1 million in restructuring charges and anticipates generating future annualized savings of approximately the same amount. The program and related actions are designed to better align the EMEA operating cost structure with the current business environment. Excluding consulting costs, the company expects to incur total charges in the range of $40 million to $50 million related to the EMEA restructuring program and generate annualized savings in the same range.
Nine-month Results
Net sales for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2005, were $15.0 billion, an increase of 5.8 percent from $14.2 billion in the nine-month period ended October 31, 2004. On a regional basis, net sales in the Americas represented 47 percent of worldwide net sales, and increased 12.9 percent to $7.1 billion from $6.3 billion in the prior-year comparable period. EMEA represented 53 percent of worldwide net sales, and increased 0.2 percent (decreased 1.9 percent on a local currency basis) to $7.93 billion from $7.92 billion for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2004.
Gross margin for the nine-month period was 5.28 percent, down from 5.69 percent in the prior-year comparable period. As noted above, the year-over-year decline in gross margin was primarily attributable to challenges in the company’s EMEA operations and changes in customer and product mix in both regions.
Operating income, on a GAAP basis, for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2005, was $111.8 million, or .75 percent of net sales, compared with $160.2 million, or 1.13 percent of net sales, in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding restructuring charges and consulting costs recorded during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2006, operating income for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2005 totaled $141.2 million, or .94 percent of net sales.
