“Our organic revenue grew 3.4% sequentially in constant currency and adjusted operating income increased 4.8%. Our investments in e-commerce continue to yield results as digital sales exceeded a $700 million annual run rate driven by better than expected revenue at Premier Farnell where operating income margin exceeded 10%,” said Bill Amelio, CEO of Avnet. “Our EMEA team delivered another strong quarter as organic revenue grew 16% sequentially in constant currency and operating income margin increased 21 basis points. Despite near-term challenges in our upcoming quarters related to supplier losses and changes to supplier programs, we are confident our investments in digital tools and

 


 

 

our transformation initiatives that are focused on streamlining our operations and improving our ability to serve our customers and suppliers.  This will position Avnet for future profitable growth in a rapidly changing technology supply chain environment.”

o

Organic sales increased 1.8% in constant currency

·

EMEA organic sales increased 12.3% year over year in constant currency on an organic basis, representing the 15th consecutive quarter of organic growth

·

Gross profit margin increased 142 basis points from the year ago quarter primarily due to the addition of Premier Farnell, as well as improvements in the Asia region

·

Working capital (defined as receivables plus inventories less accounts payables) increased 9.1% sequentially, primarily due to an increase in the EMEA and Asia regions    

 

 


 

 

Cash Flow and Returns to Shareholders

 

·

Cash flow from continuing operations was a use of $163 million in the March quarter 

·

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter was $1.13 billion; net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) was $628 million

·

During the March quarter, the Company repurchased 3.1 million shares, representing an aggregate investment of $140.1 million

·

Entering the fourth quarter, the Company had $534.8 million remaining under the current share repurchase authorization

·

Avnet paid a dividend of $0.18 per share or $23.1 million during the quarter

 

“In the March quarter, we used approximately $2.4 billion of cash from the sale of our Technology Solutions business to strengthen our balance sheet and increase the amount of funds available to return to shareholders,” said Kevin Moriarty, CFO of Avnet.  “We paid down approximately $1.8 billion of debt, which will reduce our future interest expense and result in credit statistics that solidly support our investment grade credit rating.  We also increased our dividend 5.9% while allocating an additional $500 million to our share repurchase program.  In addition, we locked in the gain on our Tech Data Corporation shares to ensure that we will have another $250 million of cash available over the next twelve months.  With our strong balance sheet and improved liquidity, we are well positioned to invest in growth and our digital transformation that will drive financial performance in the future.”

 

ERP Update

 

Given the Company is now solely focused on components and has acquired significant digital resources, the Company recently performed a thorough review of both its Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in the Americas (“Evolve”) and its global IT strategy going forward.  The Company has decided to pursue a global ERP system that incorporates key elements of its international ERP systems that have been successfully supporting the business for many years. In addition to supporting the Company’s emerging digital business model, the global ERP system is expected to enhance the customer experience, lower operational cost and improve global analytics.  While this system may take up to 24 months to complete, the Company will continue to invest necessary resources to modify and maintain the Evolve system in the Americas to continue to deliver support to customers and suppliers. As a result of this decision, the Company expects to recognize accelerated depreciation on the Evolve system, which will negatively impact results by approximately $18 million per quarter over the next eight quarters.

 

Outlook for Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2017 Ending on July 1, 2017

 

·

Sales are expected to be in the range of $4.35 billion to $4.65 billion

·

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.82 per share

·

The guidance assumes 127 million average diluted shares outstanding and an adjusted tax rate of 22% to 26%

 

Preliminary Outlook for Fiscal 2018 Ending on June 30, 2018

 

·

Sales are expected to be in the range of $17.3 billion to $17.7 billion

·

Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is expected to be in the range of $3.00 to $3.50 per share

·

The guidance assumes 126 million average diluted shares outstanding and an adjusted tax rate of 22% to 26%

 

 


 

 

The above guidance excludes any additional acquisitions, the amortization of intangibles, Evolve accelerated depreciation, any potential restructuring, integration, and other expenses and certain income tax adjustments. In addition, the above guidance assumes that the average U.S. Dollar to Euro currency exchange rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 is $1.08 to €1.00. This compares with an average exchange rate of $1.13 to the Euro in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

 

Refer to Exhibit 99.2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 27, 2017, for a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

In February 2017, Avnet completed the sale of its Technology Solutions business to Tech Data Corporation.  As a result, the TS business is considered a discontinued operation.

Exhibit 99.2

 

Supplemental and 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 certain non-GAAP financial information including (i) adjusted operating income, (ii) adjusted operating expenses, (iii) adjusted other income (expense), (iv) adjusted income tax expense, (v) adjusted income from continuing operations, (vi) adjusted diluted earnings per share, and (vii) 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 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 on sales, income or expense items for subsidiaries reporting in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, the Company adjusts the average exchange rates used in current periods to be consistent with the average exchange rates in effect during the comparative period.

 

Management believes that operating income, operating expenses and other income (expense) adjusted for restructuring, integration and other expenses, including acquisition or divestiture related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets and other, are useful measures to help investors better assess and understand the Company’s operating performance. This is especially the case 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, operating expenses and other income (expense) 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 also believes income tax expense, income from continuing operations and diluted EPS from continuing operations adjusted for the impact of the items described above and certain items impacting income tax expense are useful to investors because they provide a measure of the Company’s net profitability on a more comparable basis to historical periods and provide 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 income from continuing operations and diluted EPS from continuing operations excluding the

 


 

 

impact of these items provides an important measure of the Company’s net profitability 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 from both continuing and discontinued operations.

 

·

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 from both continuing and discontinued operations.

 

·

WC velocity is defined as annualized adjusted sales divided by the sum of the monthly average balances of receivables and inventories less accounts payable from both continuing and discontinued operations.

 

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.

Organic Sales

 

Organic sales is defined as sales adjusted for the impact of significant acquisitions, divestitures and other items by adjusting Avnet’s prior and current (if necessary) 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.

 

The following tables present the reconciliation of reported sales to organic sales for the third quarters and first nine months of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2017.
