Exhibit 99.1 Arrow Electronics' Net Income Advances 59% over Prior Year; EPS Ahead of Consensus MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 25, 2006--Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) today reported second quarter 2006 net income of $92.8 million ($.76 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) on sales of $3.44 billion, compared with net income of $58.4 million ($.50 and $.48 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $2.77 billion in the second quarter of 2005. The 24% increase in sales year-over-year included 14% organic growth and 10% growth as a result of acquisitions. The company's results for the second quarters of 2006 and 2005 include a number of items outlined below that impact their comparability. A reconciliation of these items is provided under the heading "Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information." Excluding those items, net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 would have been $94.7 million ($.78 and $.77 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) and net income for the quarter ended July 1, 2005 would have been $65.4 million ($.56 and $.54 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively). Included in the results for the second quarter of 2006 is $3.7 million ($2.1 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to the expensing of stock options in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share Based Payment" ("FASB Statement No. 123(R)"). No such charge was recorded in 2005. Wall Street consensus, as reported by First Call, was $.73 on a diluted basis. Operating income in the second quarter of 2006 and 2005 was $163.1 million and $118.8 million, respectively. Excluding the items impacting comparability included in the reconciliation provided under the heading "Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information", second quarter 2006 operating income would have been $166.3 million, up 35% over last year's $123.6 million. Operating income as a percentage of sales, excluding the previously mentioned items, increased by 40 basis points year-over-year. "We once again had an excellent quarter as our ongoing initiatives, coupled with favorable conditions in the marketplace, led to record second quarter sales and earnings in excess of our expectations. We also delivered our highest second quarter return on invested capital in ten years," said William E. Mitchell, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue on our path of consistent execution with 14 consecutive quarters of year-over-year sales growth, and we are very proud of our progress in driving operational excellence into all parts of our business." Worldwide components sales of $2.76 billion increased 6% sequentially and 27% over last year, while operating income increased 11% sequentially and 42% over last year. Sales on a pro forma basis, including Ultra Source Technology Corp. in the second quarter of 2005, increased 20% year-over-year. "Each of our components businesses around the world achieved sequential growth and impressive year-over-year increases in sales and operating income," stated Mr. Mitchell. "In North America, sales reached their highest level since the first quarter of 2001, while we drove operating expenses as a percentage of sales down 150 basis points year-over-year. Sales in Europe reached all-time highs while improving operating income almost 60% year-over-year, and Asia/Pacific sales broke records again with significant improvements in profitability," added Mr. Mitchell. Worldwide computer products sales increased 17% sequentially in this seasonally strong quarter, and increased 14% year-over-year. Sales for the Enterprise Computing Solutions business on a pro forma basis, including DNSint.com AG in the second quarter of 2005, decreased 2% year-over-year. "Our enterprise computing business continued to demonstrate solid profitability and returns. Growth was driven by strong performance in storage, industry standard servers, and our European enterprise business, offset by weakness in the broad proprietary server market and software in North America," said Mr. Mitchell. The company's results for the second quarter of 2006 and 2005 include the items outlined below that impact their comparability: -- During the second quarter of 2006, the company recorded $3.1 million ($1.9 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) of restructuring charges. Included in the restructuring charges is approximately $2.4 million related to previously announced actions the company has committed to take in an ongoing effort to improve its operating efficiencies. These previously announced actions are expected to generate annual cost savings of approximately $6 million beginning in 2007. The estimated restructuring charges to be recorded over the next several quarters associated with these actions total approximately $1 million. -- During the second quarter of 2005, the company recorded restructuring charges related to additional actions to better optimize the use of its mainframe, reduce real estate costs, be more efficient in its distribution centers, and to be more productive in the amount of $4.8 million ($2.9 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis). -- During the second quarter of 2005, the company repurchased, through a series of transactions, $80.8 million accreted value of its zero coupon convertible debentures due in 2021, which could have been put to the company in February 2006 ("convertible debentures"). The related loss on the repurchase, including the premium paid and the write-off of related deferred financing costs, aggregated $1.7 million ($1.0 million net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis). -- At July 1, 2005, the company determined that an other-than-temporary decline in the fair value of an investment occurred, and, accordingly, during the second quarter of 2005, the company recorded a loss on the write-down of an investment of $3.0 million ($.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115 and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No.03-1. "We expect the components market to return to more normal, steady conditions in the third quarter after having experienced an uptick in demand over the last few quarters. Based upon the information known to us today, we anticipate traditional seasonality for our businesses next quarter, as markets remain rational and disciplined in all of the regions in which we operate. In Asia/Pacific, we expect to see an uptick in demand in preparation for the typical holiday build. Both Europe, because of its extended holiday period, and Enterprise Computing Solutions, due to typical third quarter seasonality, are expected to see a drop off in activity levels. In North American components, fewer shipping days may cause a corresponding drop in sales," said Paul J. Reilly, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We believe this will result in sales between $3.275 and $3.425 billion for the upcoming quarter. We anticipate worldwide components sales between $2.67 and $ 2.77 billion and sales for worldwide computer products to be between $605 and $655 million. Earnings per share on a diluted basis, including the impact of expensing stock options in accordance with FASB Statement No. 123(R) estimated at approximately $.02 per share, are expected to be in the range of $.68 to $.72, excluding any charges. Excluding the impact of restructuring and other charges, and the expensing of stock options, diluted earnings per share for the third quarter are expected to increase 35% to 42% from last year's third quarter," added Mr. Reilly. SIX MONTH RESULTS Arrow's net income for the first six months of 2006 was $174.3 million ($1.44 and $1.42 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $6.63 billion, compared with net income of $115.6 million ($.99 and $.96 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) on sales of $5.49 billion in the first six months of 2005. Included in the results for the first six months of 2006 is $6.2 million ($3.9 million net of related taxes or $.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to the expensing of stock options in accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R). Net income for the first six months of 2006 includes restructuring charges of $4.6 million ($2.8 million net of related taxes or $.02 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to the aforementioned actions to continue improving its operating efficiencies 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) on the redemption of the total amount outstanding of $283.2 million principal amount ($156.4 million accreted value) of its convertible debentures and on the repurchase of $4.1 million principal amount of its 7% Senior Notes due in January 2007. Excluding these items, net income would have been $178.7 million ($1.47 and $1.46 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) for the first six months of 2006. Net income for the first six months of 2005 includes restructuring charges of $8.9 million ($5.5 million net of related taxes or $.04 and $.03 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) and an acquisition indemnification credit of $1.7 million ($1.3 million net of related taxes or $.01 per share on a basic basis). Net income for the first six months of 2005 also includes a loss on prepayment of debt of $2.1 million ($1.2 million net of related taxes or $.01 per share on both a basic and diluted basis) related to the repurchase of $94.0 million accreted value of its convertible debentures and the aforementioned loss on the write-down on an investment of $3.0 million ($.03 per share on both a basic and diluted basis). Excluding these items, net income would have been $124.1 million ($1.06 and $1.03 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively) for the first six months of 2005. Arrow Electronics is a major global provider of products, services and solutions to industrial and commercial users of electronic components and computer products. Headquartered in Melville, New York, Arrow serves as a supply channel partner for nearly 600 suppliers and more than 130,000 original equipment manufacturers, contract manufacturers and commercial customers through a global network of over 270 locations in 53 countries and territories. 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, the prepayment of debt, and the write-down of an investment. 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. ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC.
