- Total revenue in the quarter ended Jan. 29 was $14.9 billion, an 11-percent increase from a year ago and a 16-percent sequential gain. Revenue improved in all of Dell’s business segments as the company consolidated results from the former Perot Systems for the first time.

Information about Dell’s use of non-GAAP financial information is provided under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. Non-GAAP financial information excludes costs related primarily to the amortization of purchased intangibles, severance and facility-action costs, and acquisition-related charges. All comparisons in this press release are year over year unless otherwise noted.
Results
- GAAP gross margin was 16.6 percent of revenue. Non-GAAP gross margin was 17.4 percent of revenue, pressured by seasonal strength in consumer demand, which has lower margins.
- GAAP operating expenses were 13.2 percent of revenue. Non-GAAP operating expenses were 12.1 percent of revenue, or $1.8 billion, compared with 12.8 percent a year ago, the result of continued sharp attention to cost structure and operational execution.
- GAAP operating income was $510 million, or 3.4 percent of revenue. Non-GAAP operating income increased 11 percent to $798 million, or 5.4 percent of revenue.
Strategic Progress:
- Dell delivers comprehensive, easy-to-configure, end-to-end solutions comprising state-of-the-art servers, storage systems, networking products, software and management tools. Dell’s approach is distinctly different from those of other companies, whose often proprietary, closed technology is more likely to benefit the supplier than the customer.
- Dell’s open, capable and affordable enterprise solutions produced a 26-percent increase in server revenue in the quarter. The company’s easy-to-deploy and easy-to-manage EqualLogic storage solutions continue to be well received by customers, with revenue from that line up 44 percent. Overall storage revenue was down from a year ago, but up 18 percent sequentially, as the company emphasizes higher-value storage technology.
- Company revenue from services increased 51 percent, mostly because of new capabilities associated with the Q4 acquisition of Perot Systems. The expanded Dell Services is providing a streamlined range of practical solutions that enable customers to get more out of their IT investments. Dell services and solutions are tailored to make them relevant for businesses and organizations of all sizes.
- Total revenue from commercial customers grew 11 percent (13 percent sequentially) as all segments saw improving demand. Sales of enterprise systems were up 17 percent sequentially.
- Combined sales in rapidly growing economies were up strongly. In the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China), revenue increased 72 percent—81 percent in China, led by SMB and Large Enterprise.
Business Units:
- Large Enterprise revenue was $4.2 billion, up 8 percent (23 percent sequentially). Operating income for the quarter was $281 million, an 8-percent improvement. Operating income as a percent of revenue was up 1.6 points sequentially.
- Public revenue was $3.8 billion, an increase of 16 percent—3 percent without Perot Systems. Revenue from services more than doubled, reflecting the strong standing of solutions from the former Perot Systems with government and healthcare customers. Public operating income was $333 million, up 15 percent.
- Small and Medium Business revenue was $3.3 billion, up 10 percent, driven by stronger sales of mobile products and servers. Shipments rose 18 percent. Operating income was $282 million, 18 percent higher.
- Consumer revenue was $3.5 billion, an 11-percent increase. Revenue for consumer mobility products was up 26 percent. Shipments increased 29 percent (23 percent sequentially). Operating income was $9 million. During the course of the year, Dell significantly expanded its consumer product portfolio and worldwide customer reach through retailers, contributing to FY10 product shipments that were 2 million units higher than in the previous year.
Quotes:
Michael Dell, chairman of the board and chief executive officer: “Our solutions portfolio is expanding rapidly, driven by our strong capabilities, ongoing innovation and smart acquisitions. We continue to listen to and engage closely with customers through millions of conversations and interactions each day, enabling Dell to provide more relevant, value-oriented solutions to help meet their unique needs.”
Brian Gladden, chief financial officer: “We achieved solid revenue growth in every part of our business. Our commercial units are well poised for profitable growth as demand continues to return because we’re meeting customer requirements for higher-value, higher-margin servers, storage systems and services. For the full year, we generated $3.9 billion of cash flow from operations – more than twice the amount in the prior year.”
Company Outlook:
- Dell saw demand in the important commercial business continuing to return during the fourth quarter and is cautiously optimistic that this trend will continue into fiscal-year 2011. The company is confident in its ability to deliver the right technology to commercial customers and believes its extensive and ongoing cost actions position it well for this environment of increased demand. Longer term, the company is confident it can generate growth in revenue, operating-income margin and cash flow from operations.

| | Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
| |
| As a result of Dell’s acquisition of Perot Systems, Dell incurred significant amounts of acquisition-related expenses and will be amortizing a significant amount of purchased intangible assets. In addition, Dell has been, for recent quarters, providing the effects of severance and facility action costs to investors to supplement GAAP financial information. Dell believes that excluding these items from Dell’s GAAP results allows Dell’s management to better understand Dell’s consolidated financial performance from period to period and in relationship to the operating results of Dell’s segments, as management does not believe that the excluded items are reflective of underlying operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures, as defined by Dell, represent the comparable GAAP measures adjusted to exclude acquisition expenses related to our recent acquisition of Perot Systems, amortization of purchased intangible assets related to the Perot Systems acquisition and other prior acquisitions, severance and facility action costs, and stock option accelerated vesting charges incurred in our 2009 fiscal year. In the future, Dell expects that it may again exclude such items and may incur expenses similar to these excluded items, including in connection to any future acquisitions. Accordingly, the exclusion of these items and other similar items in Dell’s non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual. Dell believes the non-GAAP financial measures will provide investors with greater transparency with respect to the information Dell’s management uses in its financial and operational decision-making and will allow investors to review Dell’s operating results through the eyes of management. These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate an enhanced understanding of historical results and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. |
| |
| This additional non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for gross margin, operating expenses, operating income, net income, and earnings per share prepared in accordance with GAAP. |
| |
| The non-GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated in the tables above reflect adjustments related to the following items: |
| |
| Acquisition-related charges are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of cash compensation payments, retention payments, integration costs, bankers’ fees, legal fees, and consulting fees that are directly attributable to the acquisition of Perot Systems. The cash compensation payments include payments that were triggered by the acquisition made to Perot Systems employees who are now employed with Dell. Retention payments include stock-based compensation and cash incentives awarded to employees, which are recognized over the vesting period. Integration costs include incremental business costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of Perot Systems and that are incurred during the integration period. These costs primarily include IT costs related to the integration of IT systems and processes, costs related to the integration of Perot Systems employees, costs related to full-time employees who are working on the integration, and consulting expenses. Acquisition-related charges are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and nature of acquisitions. Therefore, although Dell may incur these types of expenses in connection with future acquisitions, Dell believes eliminating the expenses relating to the Perot Systems acquisition for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of Dell’s current operating performance and comparisons to Dell’s past operating performance. |
| |
| Amortization of purchased intangible assets consists primarily of amortization of customer relationships, customer lists, acquired technology, trade names, and non-compete covenants purchased in connection with business acquisitions. Dell incurs charges relating to the amortization of these intangibles, and those charges are included in Dell’s GAAP financial statements. Amortization charges for Dell’s purchased intangible assets are inconsistent in amount and are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of Dell’s acquisitions. Consequently, Dell excludes these charges for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of Dell’s current operating performance and comparisons to Dell’s past operating performance. |
| |
| Severance and facility action costs primarily relate to facilities charges including accelerated depreciation and to severance and benefits for employees terminated pursuant to actions taken as part of a comprehensive review of costs. Management measures the performance of Dell excluding the effects of severance and facility action costs and has been, for recent quarters, providing the effects to investors to supplement GAAP financial information. Dell excludes these severance and facility action costs for purposes of calculating the non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these historical costs do not reflect expected future operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of Dell’s current operating performance or comparisons to Dell’s past operating performance. |
| |
| Certain stock-based compensation charges incurred during our 2009 fiscal year related to the accelerated vesting of unvested “out-of-the-money stock options” (options that have an exercise price greater than the current market stock price) are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. Stock-based compensation costs unrelated to the accelerated vesting of out-of-the-money stock options are not excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. Dell excludes charges related to the accelerated vesting of out-of-the-money stock options because they do not contribute to a meaningful comparison of Dell’s past operating results to Dell’s current operating results. |
| |
| The aggregate adjustment for income taxes is the estimated combined income tax effect for the adjustments mentioned above. The tax effects are determined based on the jurisdictions where the adjustments were incurred. |
| |
| There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Other companies, including companies in Dell’s industry, may calculate the non-GAAP financial measures differently than Dell does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. In addition, items such as amortization of purchased intangible assets represent the loss in value of intangible assets over time. The expense associated with this loss in value is not included in the non-GAAP financial measures and such measures, therefore, do not reflect the full economic effect of such loss. Lastly, items such as severance and facility action costs and acquisition expenses that are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures can have a material impact on earnings. Dell’s management compensates for the foregoing limitations by relying primarily on Dell’s GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally. Non-GAAP financial measures are not an alternative to GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Dell provides detailed reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure within the financial information included with this press release and in other written materials that include the non-GAAP financial measures, and Dell encourages investors to review the reconciliations in conjunction with the presentation of any non-GAAP financial measures. |
