· |
Sales for the fiscal year increased 1.5% from the prior year (5.4% in constant currency) to $27.92 billion |
· |
Adjusted operating income of $972.5 million increased 4.4% year over year (11.0% in constant currency) and adjusted operating income margin of 3.5% increased 9 basis points year over year |
· |
Adjusted net income of $623.1 million increased 4.9% from the prior year and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.49 increased 5.9% year over year |
· |
Adjusted earnings per share was negatively impacted by $0.26, or 5.8%, by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates |
· |
Cash flow from operations increased 146% year over year to $584 million and the Company returned $247.3 million of cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases |
Rick Hamada, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Despite the significant strengthening of the U.S. Dollar throughout fiscal 2015, the Avnet team delivered consistent improvement in our financial
performance as revenue grew year over year and adjusted operating income margin expanded in all four quarters. As a result, reported revenue of $27.9 billion represented a 5.4% year-over-year increase in constant currency and adjusted operating income grew 11.0% in constant currency to $972.5 million. The improvement in profitability was led by our EMEA region where both operating groups grew operating income double digits and operating income margin increased by greater than 50 basis points despite the currency headwinds that negatively impacted our reported results. This increase in profitability, combined with continued discipline on working capital management, drove cash flow from operations up 146% from fiscal 2014 to $584 million, and return on working capital increased to 21.6%. During the year, we paid out $87 million in dividends and returned another $160 million to shareholders via our share repurchase program. We continue to apply our disciplined portfolio management across our business and redirect investment to higher growth opportunities, including embedded systems, converged infrastructure and the multiple opportunities being created by the Industrial Internet of Things. With our strong financial position, we enter fiscal 2016 well positioned to deliver continued organic growth and progress toward our financial goals.”

· |
Sales for the quarter ended June 27, 2015 increased 3.1% on a constant currency basis and reported sales decreased 3.6% year over year to $6.80 billion |
· |
Adjusted operating income of $243.8 million was essentially flat year over year (increased 10% in constant currency) and adjusted operating income margin of 3.6% increased 12 basis points year over year |
· |
Adjusted net income of $159.5 million was essentially flat with the year ago quarter and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.16 increased 1.8% year over year |
· |
Adjusted earnings per share was negatively impacted by $0.11, or 9.5%, by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates |
Mr. Hamada said, “Similar to the March quarter, our results were negatively impacted by the strong dollar as organic revenue growth of 3.1% year over year in constant currency translated into a 3.6% decline as reported. High single digit organic growth in our Electronics Marketing (EM) business in our EMEA and Asia regions was offset by a decline in our computing components business at Technology Solutions (TS). Our reported earnings were also negatively impacted by a stronger dollar as a 10.0% year-over-year growth in our adjusted operating income in local currencies was reduced
to a 0.4% decrease. Even though currency had a negative impact on our reported results, our team executed well and generated leverage on organic growth. If you exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, in the June quarter we grew operating income 3.3 times faster than revenue."

Year-over-year sales growth rate excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. |
· |
Sales increased 7.2% in constant currency and reported sales were essentially flat year over year at $4.32 billion |
· |
Operating income margin was flat year over year at 4.8% as an improvement in the EMEA region was offset by a regional mix shift to the lower margin Asia region |
· |
Working capital (defined as receivables plus inventories less accounts payables) decreased 1.9% from the year ago quarter in reported dollars but increased 6.9% in constant currency primarily to support organic sales growth |
· |
Return on working capital (ROWC) was essentially flat with the year ago quarter and increased 177 basis points sequentially |
Mr. Hamada added, “EM closed out the year with another strong quarter as high single digit organic growth in our EMEA and Asia regions drove total revenue up over 7% year over year in constant currency. EM EMEA delivered another quarter of strong leverage as operating income in local currencies grew 3.1 times faster than revenue for both the fourth quarter and full fiscal year. At EM Asia, where double digit growth in fiscal 2015 was driven by high volume supply chain engagements, return on working capital increased 82 basis points and economic profit grew 2.3 times faster than revenue. In our Americas region, which has been dealing with a sluggish growth environment all year, fiscal 2015 revenue grew 1.6% year over year and operating income margin was consistent with the prior year. These strong organic results were significantly reduced at the EM global level on a reported basis due to the stronger dollar. EM’s operating income decreased 0.5% year over year in reported dollars in the fourth fiscal quarter but increased 6.6% for the full fiscal year.”

(1) Year-over-year sales growth rate excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
· |
Sales decreased 3.5% in constant currency and reported sales decreased 9.2% year over year to $2.48 billion |
· |
Operating income increased 4.7% to $77.6 million and operating income margin increased 42 basis points year over year to 3.1% |
· |
ROWC increased 322 basis points year over year primarily due to higher operating income in the EMEA region |
· |
At a product level, year-over-year growth in networking & security and servers was offset by declines in storage and computing components |
Mr. Hamada further added, "In our June quarter, our TS team continued their focus on improving profitability as operating income margin grew 42 basis points from the year ago quarter. TS achieved this margin expansion despite a negative impact from both currency and the significant decline for our computing components business. As a result of these factors, TS reported revenue declined 9.2% year over year in the June quarter even though the sales in our enterprise IT business was consistent with the prior year in constant currency. For the full fiscal year, TS revenue declined 3.4% but was flat on a constant currency basis as growth in our datacenter solutions business in our western regions was offset by a double digit decline in our computing component business. At a regional level, our Americas region grew 2.3% in fiscal 2015 while our EMEA region declined 1.4% in constant currency and TS Asia was down 13.6%. A significant highlight for TS in fiscal 2015 was the continued progress in our enterprise IT business at TS EMEA, where growth in constant currency and disciplined expense management combined to drive TS EMEA’s operating income margin up 55 basis points for the full fiscal year. As a result of this performance, TS’ operating income margin improved to 3.1% in both the fourth quarter and full fiscal year. We believe our continued discipline in portfolio management coupled with our investments in newer technologies, including converged infrastructure and the solutions built around them, continue to drive profitable growth that is resulting in enhanced profitability and continued progress toward our margin and return goals.”
· |
Cash generated from operations was approximately $300 million for the quarter and for the trailing twelve months, cash generated from operations was approximately $584 million |
· |
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter was $932.6 million; net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was approximately $1.05 billion |
· |
The Company repurchased 368,364 shares during the quarter at an aggregate cost of $15.8 million. For the fiscal year, the Company repurchased approximately 4.0 million shares at an aggregate cost of $163.4 million |
· |
The Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.16 per share or $21.7 million and $0.64 per share or $87.3 million for the full fiscal year |
Kevin Moriarty, Chief Financial Officer, stated, “In fiscal 2015, we generated $584 million of cash flow from operations driven by an increase in profitability and disciplined working capital management. We also returned over 40% of this cash flow from operations to shareholders through our dividend and disciplined share repurchase program. We began our new fiscal year with approximately $300 million remaining under our currently authorized share repurchase program. In addition to the $15.8 million purchased in the June quarter, through the first five weeks of our first fiscal quarter of 2016 we repurchased an additional $64 million of shares. We grew economic profit dollars year over year in all four quarters of fiscal 2015 and our return on capital employed for the full year increased to 11.6%. With our strong financial position, we enter our new fiscal year well positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities while maintaining our well-established priorities regarding capital allocation.”
Outlook for First Quarter of Fiscal 2016 Ending on October 3, 2015
· |
EM sales are expected to be in the range of $4.15 billion to $4.45 billion and TS sales are expected to be in the range of $2.25 billion to $2.55 billion, both of which include the impact of the extra week in the first fiscal quarter |
· |
Avnet sales are expected to be in the range of $6.40 billion and $7.00 billion |
· |
Adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $0.97 to $1.07 per share |
· |
The guidance assumes 137 million average diluted shares outstanding and a tax rate of 27% to 31% |
The above guidance excludes the amortization of intangibles and any potential restructuring, integration and other expenses. In addition, the above guidance assumes that the average U.S. Dollar to Euro currency exchange rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 is $1.09 to €1.00. This compares with an average exchange rate of $1.33 to €1.00 in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and $1.11 to €1.00 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.
This document contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in facts and circumstances. The forward-looking statements herein include statements addressing future financial and operating results of Avnet and may include words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “expect,” "feel," “believe,” and “should,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussions of future operating or financial
performance, business prospects or market conditions. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations contained in the forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the Company’s ability to retain and grow market share and to generate additional cash flow, risks associated with any acquisition activities and the successful integration of acquired companies, declines in sales, changes in business conditions and the economy in general, changes in market demand and pricing pressures, any material changes in the allocation of product or product rebates by suppliers, and other competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting the businesses of Avnet generally.
More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in Avnet’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Except as required by law, Avnet is under no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company also discloses in this document certain non-GAAP financial information including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, as well as sales adjusted for the impact of acquisitions and other items (as defined in the Organic Sales section of this document). There are also references to the impact of foreign currency translation in the discussion of the Company’s results of operations. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens and the weaker exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is an increase in U.S. Dollars of reported results. In the discussion of the Company’s results of operations, results excluding this impact are referred to as “excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates” or “constant currency.” Management believes organic sales and sales in constant currency are useful measures for evaluating current period performance as compared with prior periods and for understanding underlying trends. In order to determine the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates for sales, income or expense items, the Company adjusts the exchange rates used in current periods to be consistent with the exchange rates in effect during prior periods.
Management believes that operating income and operating expenses adjusted for (i) restructuring, integration and other expenses and (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and other, is a useful measure to help investors better assess and understand the Company’s operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of Avnet’s normal operating results or non-cash in nature. Management analyzes operating income and operating expenses without the impact of these items as an indicator of ongoing margin performance and underlying trends in the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in many cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes.
Additional non-GAAP metrics management uses are adjusted operating income margin, which is defined as adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by sales and adjusted operating
expense to gross profit ratio, which is defined as adjusted operating expenses (as defined above) divided by gross profit.
Management believes net income and diluted EPS adjusted for (i) the impact of the items described above, (ii) certain items impacting income tax expense and (iii) the gain on legal settlement and foreign currency loss is useful to investors because it provides a measure of the Company’s net profitability on a more comparable basis to historical periods and provides a more meaningful basis for forecasting future performance. Additionally, because of management’s focus on generating shareholder value, of which net profitability is a primary driver, management believes net income and diluted EPS excluding the impact of these items provides an important measure of the Company’s net results for the investing public.
Other metrics management monitors in its assessment of business performance include return on working capital (ROWC), return on capital employed (ROCE) and working capital velocity (WC velocity).
· |
ROWC is defined as annualized adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable. |
· |
ROCE is defined as annualized, tax effected adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the monthly average balances of interest-bearing debt and equity (including the impact of adjustments to operating income discussed above) less cash and cash equivalents. |
· |
WC velocity is defined as annualized sales divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable. |
Any analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Key Highlights
· |
Sales for fiscal 2015 increased 1.5%, or $425 million, to $27.9 billion. Excluding the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (also referred to as “constant currency” and referenced to as “CC” in the graphs that follow) sales grew 5.4% driven by strength at Electronics Marketing (EM). |
o |
EM organic sales increased 9.1% in constant currency driven by double digit growth in our EMEA and Asia regions and TS organic sales in constant currency was flat as an increase in enterprise IT sales was offset by a decline in computing components. |
· |
In fiscal 2015, Avnet delivered another year of sales growth and continued improvement in margins and returns, even as the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar negatively impacted reported results in the second half of fiscal 2015. |
o |
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) declined 3.2%, or $73.8 million, to $2.2 billion but were flat with fiscal 2014 in constant currency even as sales increased 5.4% in constant currency. |
o |
Adjusted operating income at the enterprise level increased 4.4% to $972.5 million and adjusted operating income margin improved 9 basis points primarily due to improved profitability in the EMEA region at both operating groups. |
§ |
EM operating income grew 6.6% and operating income margin increased 8 basis points to 4.6%. |
§ |
TS operating income grew 2.5% and operating income margin increased 18 basis points to 3.1%. |
o |
Adjusted earnings per share was negatively impacted by $0.26, or 5.8%, by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. |
· |
Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.49 increased 5.9% year over year, primarily due to growth in operating income at both operating groups, particularly in the EMEA region. |
· |
Cash flow from operations increased 146% year over year to $584 million, driven by an increase in profitability and disciplined working capital management |
o |
The Company returned approximately 40% of the cash flow from operations, or $247 million, to shareholders via its dividend and share repurchase program. |
· |
For fiscal 2015, ROWC improved to 21.6% and ROCE improved to 11.6%. |

Key Highlights
· |
Sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 3.1% in constant currency but declined 3.6% year over year on a reported basis to $6.80 billion. In constant currency, high single digit growth at EM was partially offset by a decline at TS primarily due to the weakness in the computing components business. |
o |
Sequentially, sales increased 1.5% in constant currency, which was below the normal seasonal range of +2% to +5%. The seasonal growth at EM was partially offset by below seasonal declines at TS. |
· |
Adjusted operating income decreased 0.4% year over year (increased 10.0% in constant currency) to $243.8 million and adjusted operating income margin increased 12 basis points as improvement in the EMEA region at both operating groups in constant currency was negatively impacted when translating those results into U.S. Dollars. |
o |
Sequentially, adjusted operating income increased 5.8% and adjusted operating income margin improved 17 basis points with both operating groups contributing to the improvement. |
· |
Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.16 increased 1.8% year over year, primarily due to improved profitability in the EMEA region at both operating groups. |
o |
Adjusted earnings per share was negatively impacted by $0.11, or 9.5%, by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. |
· |
Working capital decreased $233.1 million, or 5.3%, and increased 2.4% from the year ago quarter in constant currency. The increase was primarily due to an increase at EM to support organic sales growth. |
· |
Avnet’s ROWC increased 44 basis points year over year and ROCE was up 21 basis points primarily due to an increase at TS. |
· |
Disciplined working capital management contributed to cash flow from operations of $299.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 as profitability increased sequentially and working capital was flat. |
· |
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company paid a dividend of $0.16 per share, or $21.7 million, and paid $87.3 million in dividends during our fiscal year. |

· |
Interest expense of $23.7 million declined $0.6 million from the year ago quarter. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to a decrease in outstanding foreign short-term debt. |
· |
The Company incurred $3.1 million of other expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with $4.6 million of other expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. The year-over-year decrease in other expense was primarily due to a reduction in foreign currency exchange losses. |
· |
The GAAP effective tax rate was (3.3)% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 as compared with (6.1)% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. During both quarters, the GAAP effective tax rate reflected the impact of the release of valuation allowances, which more than offset the income tax expense associated with income before income taxes. |

· |
GAAP net income decreased by $27.5 million year over year to $158.7 million, or $1.15 per share on a diluted basis, primarily due to an increase in restructuring, integration and other expenses, and higher favorable income tax adjustments in the year ago quarter. |
· |
Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 was $159.5 million, or $1.16 per share on a diluted basis. |
o |
Adjusted net income was essentially flat from the year ago quarter and adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 1.8%, primarily due to the organic growth in operating income offset by the negative impact of foreign currency after translating results into U.S. Dollars. |
o |
Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, adjusted diluted earnings per share would have been $1.27, which represents an increase of approximately 11% from the year ago quarter. |
o |
Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.16 increased $0.12, or 11.5% sequentially, primarily due to the improvement in profitability at both operating groups. |

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures is presented in the Non-GAAP Financial Information section of the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 included in this Current Report on Form 8-K. |
· |
Working capital (accounts receivable plus inventories less accounts payable) decreased $233.1 million, or 5.3%, year over year and increased 2.4% from the year ago quarter in constant currency. The increase in constant currency was primarily due to an increase at EM to support the strong organic sales growth in constant currency. |
o |
On a sequential basis, working capital declined 1% in constant currency as a decrease at TS was partially offset by an increase at EM. |
· |
Working capital velocity decreased 0.1 turns year over year and increased 0.2 turns sequentially, primarily due to the seasonal business mix shift and better than expected growth at the lower working capital velocity EM business. |
· |
Inventories decreased $131.2 million, or 5.0%, year over year and increased 3.4% in constant currency primarily to support the organic sales growth at EM. |
o |
On a sequential basis, inventories were essentially flat in constant currency. |

This document contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in facts and circumstances. The forward-looking statements herein include statements addressing future financial and operating results of Avnet and may include words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “expect,” “believe,” and “should,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussions of future operating or financial performance, business prospects or market conditions. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations contained in the forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the Company’s ability to retain and grow market share and to generate additional cash flow, risks associated with any acquisition activities and the successful integration of acquired companies, declines in sales, changes in business conditions and the economy in general, changes in market demand and pricing pressures, any material changes in the allocation of product or product rebates by suppliers, and other competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting the businesses of Avnet generally.
More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in Avnet’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Except as required by law, Avnet is under no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Organic Sales
Organic sales is defined as reported sales adjusted for the impact of acquisitions and divestitures by adjusting Avnet’s prior periods to include the sales of acquired businesses and exclude the sales of divested businesses as if the acquisitions and divestitures had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Organic sales in constant currency is defined as organic sales (as defined above) excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company also discloses in this document certain non-GAAP financial information including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, as well as sales adjusted for the impact of acquisitions and other items (as defined in the Organic Sales section of this document). There are also references to the impact of foreign currency translation in the discussion of the Company’s results of operations. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens and the weaker exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is an increase in U.S. Dollars of reported results. In the discussion of the Company’s results of operations, results excluding this impact are referred to as “excluding the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates” or “constant currency.” Management believes organic sales and sales in constant currency are useful measures for evaluating current period performance as compared with prior periods and for understanding underlying trends. In order to determine the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates for sales, income or expense items, the Company adjusts the exchange rates used in current periods to be consistent with the exchange rates in effect during prior periods. Management believes that operating income and operating expenses adjusted for (i) restructuring, integration and other expenses, and (ii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and other, is a useful measure to help investors better assess and understand the Company’s operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of Avnet’s normal operating results or non-cash in nature. Management analyzes operating income and operating expenses without the impact of these items as an indicator of ongoing margin performance and underlying trends in the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in many cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes.
Additional non-GAAP metrics management uses are adjusted operating income margin, which is defined as adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by sales and adjusted operating expense to gross profit ratio, which is defined as adjusted operating expenses (as defined above) divided by gross profit.
Management believes net income and diluted earnings per share adjusted for (i) the impact of the items described above, (ii) certain items impacting income tax expense and (iii) the gain on legal settlement and foreign currency loss is useful to investors because it provides a measure of the Company’s net profitability on a more comparable basis to historical periods and provides a more meaningful basis for forecasting future performance. Additionally, because of management’s focus on generating shareholder value, of which net profitability is a primary driver, management believes net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of these items provides an important measure of the Company’s net results for the investing public.

Other metrics management monitors in its assessment of business performance include return on working capital (ROWC), return on capital employed (ROCE) and working capital velocity (WC velocity).
· |
ROWC is defined as annualized adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable. |
· |
ROCE is defined as annualized, tax effected adjusted operating income (as defined above) divided by the monthly average balances of interest-bearing debt and equity (including the impact of adjustments to operating income discussed above) less cash and cash equivalents. |
· |
WC velocity is defined as annualized sales divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable. |
Any analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures is included in the Company’s press release dated August 5, 2015 (Exhibit 99.1) in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
