Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations. - -------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net sales, operating profit and net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were higher than the same period last year by 10.9 percent, 13.6 percent and 14.4 percent, respectively. Segment net sales, operating profit and net income were as follows: Quarter Ended --------------------------- October 3, September 30, Percent 1997 1996 Inc./(Dec.) ---------- ------------- ----------- (In Millions) NET SALES Electronic Systems $261.4 $254.4 3 Semiconductor 180.7 161.5 12 Communications 240.3 208.1 15 Lanier Worldwide 297.2 259.4 15 ------ ------ Total $979.6 $883.4 11 ====== ====== OPERATING PROFIT Electronic Systems $ 20.6 $ 19.3 7 Semiconductor 22.0 20.7 6 Communications 24.2 19.6 23 Lanier Worldwide 28.1 22.7 24 Corporate Expense (11.9) (9.3) (28) Interest Expense (16.9) (14.8) (14) ------ ------ Total $ 66.1 $ 58.2 14 ====== ====== NET INCOME Electronic Systems $ 8.4 $ 8.0 5 Semiconductor 10.7 10.0 7 Communications 12.3 9.6 28 Lanier Worldwide 12.2 10.5 16 ------ ------ Total $ 43.6 $ 38.1 14 ====== ====== The Electronic Systems segment reported higher sales, operating profit and net income over last year's first quarter. Results for the segment were led by increased demand for information systems products and services. Revenue for the remainder of fiscal 1998 is expected to be flat with moderately lower earnings due to reduced margins from the segment's core defense products. Semiconductor segment sales were up strongly, while operating profit and net income were moderately higher in this year's first quarter compared to the prior year period. While significantly lower industry-wide product pricing continues for commodity semiconductors, the segment is shipping products at a record volume. Royalty income included in earnings was significant and was at the same level as the prior year. The expectation of a recovery in product prices and increased manufacturing capacity is expected to result in increased sales and earnings for fiscal 1998. Sales, operating profit and net income in the Communications segment were significantly higher than last year's first quarter. Growth in all but one of the segment's major product lines, plus gains from the sale of investment securities contributed to the first quarter earnings increase. Improvement in the segment's digital switch business, coupled with growth in the segment's microwave systems, broadcast products, and telephone test equipment businesses, is expected to result in higher sales and earnings in fiscal 1998. Lanier Worldwide segment sales, operating profit and net income were significantly higher than the first quarter of last year. A significant increase in domestic sales and improved performance in the segment's international operations contributed to the (6) 7 increases in sales and earnings. Strength in both domestic and international markets is expected to result in improved sales and earnings for the current fiscal year. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased to 66.9 percent versus 66.3 percent in last year's first quarter. Cost ratios were higher for the Communications and Lanier segments. Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased from 26.1 percent last year to 25.6 percent in this year's first quarter due to lower operating expense ratios for the Lanier Worldwide and Electronic Systems segments. Company funded research and development increased $3.2 million from the prior year's first quarter to $46.5 million. Total research and development, which includes both Company funded and customer sponsored research and development, increased $29.8 million to $185.9 million for the current year's first quarter. Interest expense in the first quarter increased from the prior year due to higher average borrowings. The decrease in "Other-net" expense was due to gains resulting from the sale of investment securities. The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax income was 34.0 percent in the first quarter, compared to 34.5 percent in the prior year's first quarter. The reduction from the statutory federal tax rate of 35.0 percent for both years was due to tax rates on foreign source income and export sales. Income as a percentage of sales was 4.5 percent in the first quarter, compared to 4.3 percent in the same period last year for the previously stated reasons. LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL POSITION Working capital decreased from $774.9 million at June 27, 1997, to $763.6 million at the end of the first quarter due to lower receivables and unbilled costs on fixed price contracts. The Company continues to invest in the capital expansion of its semiconductor business. Total capital expenditures in fiscal 1998, including expenditures for customer rental equipment, are expected to be approximately $300 million. The requirement for funds to finance this investment and other operational requirements are expected to be met by cash flow from operations and unused borrowing capacity.
