Ingram Micro Reports Second Quarter 2006 Results

SANTA ANA, Calif., July 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ingram Micro Inc. , the world's largest technology distributor, today announced financial results for the second quarter, which ended July 1, 2006.

Worldwide sales hit the highest second-quarter level in company history, reaching $7.40 billion, an 8-percent increase from $6.84 billion in the prior-year period.

Second-quarter net income increased 29 percent to $53.8 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, which includes stock-based compensation expense of $7.7 million or approximately $0.03 per diluted share related to the 2006 adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), in second quarter of 2006.

In the prior-year period, net income based on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was $41.7 million or $0.26 per diluted share, which included: (1) major-program and integration costs of $14.0 million (approximately $9.6 million net of tax) related to the company's outsourcing and optimization plan in North America and the integration of the Tech Pacific acquisition, and (2) a benefit of $2.2 million for the favorable resolution of previously accrued income taxes related to the gains realized on the sale of securities.

Year-ago net income on a non-GAAP basis -- which excludes the major-program costs, integration costs and the tax benefit noted above -- was $49.1 million or $0.30 per diluted share. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP items to GAAP net income can be found in the tables attached to this press release.

"We delivered a solid quarter, with double-digit sales and operating income increases in three of our four regions," said Gregory M. Spierkel, chief executive officer, Ingram Micro Inc. "The market environment in Europe was challenging during the quarter, as reported by many of our peers, but we were able to mitigate single-market obstacles through our diversified global footprint and expansion into adjacencies. We continue to execute well and invest in the needs of our customers, helping them expand their reach and develop new business opportunities."

Additional Second-Quarter Highlights

For more detail regarding the results outlined below, please refer to the financial statements and schedules attached to this news release or visit http://www.ingrammicro.com/.

Regional Sales * North American sales were $3.33 billion (45 percent of total revenues), an increase of 14 percent versus a year ago, of which approximately three percentage points resulted from the AVAD acquisition completed in July 2005. * European sales were $2.39 billion (32 percent of total revenues), down slightly versus a year ago. The average foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and European currencies were relatively flat with the prior year, having an immaterial impact on sales growth. * Asia-Pacific sales were $1.34 billion (18 percent of total revenues), an increase of 12 percent versus a year ago. * Latin American sales were $332 million (5 percent of total revenues), an increase of 10 percent versus a year ago. Gross Margin

Gross margin was 5.30 percent, 4 basis points lower than first-quarter levels and 7 basis points lower than the year-ago quarter primarily due to the competitive environment in Europe.

Operating Expenses * On a GAAP basis, total operating expenses were $303.7 million, or 4.11 percent of revenues, versus $296.2 million, or 4.33 percent of revenues, in the year-ago quarter. The results for the current quarter included $7.7 million of non-cash stock compensation expenses, as described previously, and approximately $3.3 million in incremental technology enhancements, which were not included in the prior-year results. * For comparison purposes, non-GAAP operating expenses in the year-ago period, excluding the $14.0 million in major-program and integration costs, were $282.2 million, or 4.13 percent of revenues. Operating Income

Worldwide operating income on a GAAP basis was $88.0 million or 1.19 percent of revenues which includes approximately $7.7 million or 10 basis points related to stock-based compensation expense, compared to $71.3 million or 1.04 percent of revenues in the year-ago quarter. For comparison purposes, worldwide operating income in the year-ago period, excluding major-program and integration costs, was $85.3 million, or 1.25 percent of revenues.

The stock-based compensation expense associated with the adoption of SFAS 123R is presented as a separate reconciling amount in the company's segment reporting; therefore, this expense is included in the worldwide operating results but not in the operating results of the regions.

* North American operating income on a GAAP basis was $53.4 million or 1.60 percent of revenues, versus $28.9 million or 0.99 percent of revenues in the year-ago quarter. For comparison purposes, in the year-ago period, North American operating income, excluding major-program costs, was $39.4 million or 1.35 percent of revenues. * European operating income was $19.6 million, or 0.82 percent of revenues, versus $28.3 million, or 1.17 percent of revenues, in the year-ago quarter. * Asia-Pacific operating income on a GAAP basis was $16.1 million, or 1.20 percent of revenues, versus $10.9 million or 0.91 percent of revenues, in the year-ago quarter. For comparison purposes, in the year-ago period, Asia-Pacific operating income excluding major-program and integration costs was $14.4 million or 1.20 percent of revenues. * Latin American operating income was $6.6 million, or 2.00 percent of revenues, versus $3.2 million, or 1.05 percent of revenues, in the year-ago quarter. - Other expenses for the quarter were $13.3 million, which is down five percent from the year-ago period. - Total depreciation and amortization was $15.1 million. - Capital expenditures were $7.7 million. Balance Sheet Highlights - The cash balance at the end of the quarter was $497 million, an increase of $173 million from the end of 2005. Total debt was $650 million, an increase of $45 million from year-end. Debt-to-capitalization was 20 percent and in line with year end. - Inventory was $2.06 billion compared with $2.21 billion at the end of the year, which is flat at 27 days on hand. - Working capital days were 23, an increase of two days from year-end 2005, reflecting a greater mix of consumer and retail sales, but a one-day improvement from first quarter 2006.

"We were able to deliver on our goals despite an intense competitive environment," said William D. Humes, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Ingram Micro Inc. "This is the eleventh consecutive quarter of meeting or exceeding our original guidance. The two American regions performed exceptionally well, with North America demonstrating strong operating leverage resulting from the cost savings realized from its outsourcing and optimization program and Latin America more than doubling operating income on 10 percent sales growth. While the European region faced market challenges caused by specific vendor actions during the quarter, it executed well and our research indicates that the region continues to outperform its competition. We're pleased with our performances throughout the world, but there is still plenty of room for improvement."

Six-Month Period

For the six months ended July 1, 2006, worldwide sales were $14.99 billion, an 8-percent increase over the $13.89 billion reported a year ago. Regional sales were $6.53 billion for North America (a 12-percent increase versus the prior-year period); $5.10 billion for Europe (an increase of one percent in U.S. dollars, to which the translation impact of weaker European currencies had an approximate 5 percentage-point negative effect on comparisons to the prior year); $2.68 billion for Asia-Pacific (an increase of 12 percent versus the prior-year period); and $689 million for Latin America (an increase of 19 percent versus the prior-year period).

Worldwide GAAP operating income for the six-month period was $186.9 million, or 1.25 percent of revenues, versus $147.5 million, or 1.06 percent of revenues, reported a year ago. For comparison purposes, six-month operating income in the year-ago period excluding major-program costs, integration costs and special items was $171.3 million or 1.23 percent of revenues.

Six-month net income on a GAAP basis was $115.5 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared to $84.1 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, a year ago. For comparison purposes, six-month net income in the year-ago period excluding major-program costs, integration costs and special items was $98.4 million or $0.60 per diluted share.

Outlook for the Third Quarter

The following statements are based on the company's current expectations and internal forecasts. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially, as outlined in the company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For third quarter 2006 ending Sept. 30, 2006, Ingram Micro expects: * Revenue of $7.3 billion to $7.5 billion. * Net income of $49 million to $56 million, or $0.29 to $0.33 per diluted share, which includes approximately $8 million or $0.03 per share for the effect of non-cash stock-based compensation expense in the third quarter 2006, as well as approximately $5 million in incremental costs for IT enhancements, primarily related to the outsourcing of our application development function. For comparison purposes, 2005 did not include these expenses. * The weighted average shares outstanding is expected to be approximately 170 million and the effective tax rate for the third quarter and for the remainder of the year is currently estimated to be 28 percent.

"Demand continues to be solid throughout the world, with competitive pressures affecting pricing in certain markets," said Spierkel. "Our guidance reflects year-over-year sales growth of 5 to 8 percent. Sequentially, we expect sales to be relatively flat, in line with seasonal norms. In Europe, third quarter is seasonally soft due to the summer holidays and, while the competitive pressures from recent vendor actions will ease over time, we believe that the environment may remain challenging for the near term. In addition, the North American market continues to be highly competitive, especially on larger accounts in the United States. Looking ahead, we see opportunities for growth and profit improvement in every region. I'm enthusiastic about the future."

Cautionary Statement for the Purpose of the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

The matters in this press release that are forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements about future revenues, sales levels, operating income, margins, stock-based compensation expense, integration costs, cost synergies, operating efficiencies, profitability, market share and rates of return, are based on current management expectations that involve certain risks which, if realized, in whole or in part, could cause such expectations to fail to be achieved and have a material adverse effect on Ingram Micro's business, financial condition and results of operations, including, without limitation: (1) intense competition, regionally and internationally, including competition from alternative business models, such as manufacturer-to-end-user selling, which may lead to reduced prices, lower sales or reduced sales growth, lower gross margins, extended payment terms with customers, increased capital investment and interest costs, bad debt risks and product supply shortages; (2) integration of our acquired businesses and similar transactions involve various risks and difficulties -- our operations may be adversely impacted by an acquisition that (i) is not suited for us, (ii) is improperly executed, or (iii) substantially increases our debt; (3) foreign exchange rate fluctuations, devaluation of a foreign currency, adverse governmental controls or actions, political or economic instability, or disruption of a foreign market, and other related risks of our international operations may adversely impact our operations in that country or globally; (4) we may not achieve the objectives of our process improvement efforts or be able to adequately adjust our cost structure in a timely fashion to remain competitive, which may cause our profitability to suffer; (5) our failure to attract new sources of profitable business from expansion of products or services or risks associated with entry into new markets, including geographies, products and services, could negatively impact our future operating results; (6) an interruption or failure of our information systems or subversion of access or other system controls may result in a significant loss of business, assets, or competitive information; (7) significant changes in supplier terms, such as higher thresholds on sales volume before distributors may qualify for discounts and/or rebates, the overall reduction in the amount of incentives available, reduction or termination of price protection, return levels, or other inventory management programs, or reductions in payment terms, may adversely impact our results of operations or financial condition; (8) termination of a supply or services agreement with a major supplier or product supply shortages may adversely impact our results of operations; (9) changes in, or interpretations of, tax rules and regulations may adversely affect our effective tax rates or we may be required to pay additional tax assessments; (10) we cannot predict with certainty, the outcome of the SEC and U.S. Attorney's inquiries; (11) if there is a downturn in economic conditions for an extended period of time, it will likely have an adverse impact on our business; (12) we may experience loss of business from one or more significant customers, and an increased risk of credit loss as a result of reseller customers' businesses being negatively impacted by dramatic changes in the information technology products and services industry as well as intense competition among resellers -- increased losses, if any, may not be covered by credit insurance or we may not be able to obtain credit insurance at reasonable rates or at all; (13) rapid product improvement and technological change resulting in inventory obsolescence or changes in demand may result in a decline in value of a portion of our inventory; (14) future terrorist or military actions could result in disruption to our operations or loss of assets, in certain markets or globally; (15) the loss of a key executive officer or other key employees, or changes affecting the work force such as government regulations, collective bargaining agreements or the limited availability of qualified personnel, could disrupt operations or increase our cost structure; (16) changes in our credit rating or other market factors may increase our interest expense or other costs of capital, or capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms to fund our working capital needs; (17) our failure to adequately adapt to industry changes and to manage potential growth and/or contractions could negatively impact our future operating results; (18) future periodic assessments required by current or new accounting standards such as those relating to long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and expensing of stock options may result in additional non-cash charges; (19) seasonal variations in the demand for products and services, as well as the introduction of new products, may cause variations in our quarterly results; and (20) the failure of certain shipping companies to deliver product to us, or from us to our customers, may adversely impact our results of operations.

Ingram Micro has instituted in the past and continues to institute changes to its strategies, operations and processes to address these risk factors and to mitigate their impact on Ingram Micro's results of operations and financial condition. However, no assurances can be given that Ingram Micro will be successful in these efforts.
