UNISYS ANNOUNCES SECOND-QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS
COMPANY REPORTS $38 MILLION IN NET INCOME; RESULTS BENEFIT FROM TURNAROUND
PROGRAM ACTIONS
BLUE BELL, Pa., July 28, 2009 - Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today reported
second-quarter 2009 net income of $38.1 million, or 10 cents a share, compared
with a net loss of $14.0 million, or 4 cents a share, in the second quarter of
2008. The company's revenue declined 16% to $1.13 billion compared with
revenue of $1.34 billion in the year-ago quarter. Foreign exchange rates had
an approximately 8 percentage-point negative impact on revenue in the quarter.
On a constant currency basis, revenue declined 8 percent in the quarter.
"We made encouraging progress during the quarter on the priorities of our
turnaround program," said Unisys Chairman and CEO Ed Coleman. "First and
foremost, we were profitable. In the difficult economic environment, we were
able to triple our operating profit and deliver net income. This progress was
driven by our ongoing actions to concentrate our resources more effectively and
reduce our cost base. While we have much more work to do, this is an important
first step toward our goal of becoming a consistently and predictably
profitable company.
"Also during the quarter we sharpened our value propositions and solution
portfolio in our focused market areas," Coleman said. "We announced exciting
new solutions for secure cloud computing, outsourcing and ClearPath mainframe
technology. These new solutions demonstrate our continued innovation and
investment in services and products to help our clients address critical needs
within their organizations."
During the quarter the company launched private debt exchange offers designed
to strengthen its balance sheet and address $300 million of debt maturing in
March 2010. As of yesterday, approximately $230 million of the 2010 notes
have been tendered in the exchange, leaving approximately $70 million still
outstanding. As previously announced, the exchange offers also involve the
company's other outstanding senior notes. The exchange offers expire at
midnight tonight.
OVERALL SECOND-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Revenue in the United States declined 5 percent to $542 million, as growth in
the company's U.S. federal government business was offset by declines in its
commercial business. Revenue in international markets declined 24 percent to
$587 million. On a constant currency basis, international revenue declined 10
percent in the quarter.
Unisys reported an overall gross profit margin of 23.9 percent, up from 22.7
percent in the year-ago quarter. The company's overall operating profit margin
increased to 6.7 percent compared with 1.7 percent a year ago, reflecting
significant reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses.
SECOND-QUARTER BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS
Customer revenue in the company's services segment declined 14 percent compared
with the year-ago quarter. Foreign exchange rates had an approximately 8
percentage-point negative impact on services revenue in the quarter. Gross
profit margin in the services business improved to 21.0 percent compared with
19.2 percent a year ago, while services operating margin improved to 7.9
percent compared with 3.3 percent a year ago, reflecting the benefits of
expense reduction actions.
Services orders showed substantial declines from a year ago, but were up
sequentially from the first quarter of 2009. Services order backlog at
June 30, 2009 was $5.9 billion.
Customer revenue in the company's technology segment declined 31 percent from
the second quarter of 2008, reflecting continued weak demand for enterprise
server technology in the current economic environment. Foreign exchange rates
had an approximately 5 percentage-point negative impact on technology revenue
in the quarter. Gross profit margin in the technology business improved to
40.4 percent compared with 39.2 percent in the year-ago quarter, while
technology operating margin declined to (5.4) percent compared with (3.7)
percent in the second quarter of 2008.
CASH FLOW HIGHLIGHTS
Unisys generated $48 million of cash from operations in the quarter compared
with $52 million in the year-ago quarter. Capital expenditures in the second
quarter of 2009 declined to $53 million compared to $71 million in the year-ago
quarter. Unisys closed the quarter with $475 million of cash on hand.
