ScanSource, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCSC), the leading international value-added distributor of specialty technology products, today announced financial results for its second quarter in fiscal year 2014, for the period ended December 31, 2013.

 

Quarter ended December 31, 2013:

Net sales

$740.6

million

Net income

$18.3

million

Diluted EPS

$0.64

per share

 

"Year-over-year growth for both of our communications business units in North America drove strong operating performance," said Mike Baur, CEO, ScanSource, Inc. "Our worldwide POS and barcode business units showed improved market demand, and quarterly revenues for Brazil were an all-time record."   

For the quarter ended December 31, 2013, net sales totaled $740.6 million.  This represents a 1.2% increase from the prior quarter’s sales of $731.9 million and a 0.9% decrease from net sales of $747.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.   Operating income totaled $27.5 million, compared with $24.4 million in the prior year quarter.  Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 totaled $18.3 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, compared with net income of $16.4 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the prior year quarter. Excluding expenses associated with Belgian tax compliance and personnel replacement costs, adjusted net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 totaled $17.8 million, or $0.64 per diluted share.

Forecast for Next Quarter
The Company announced its current expectations for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014.  ScanSource expects that net sales for the quarter ending March 31, 2014 could range from $700 million to $720 million, and diluted earnings per share could be in the range of $0.53 to $0.55 per share.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains comments that are “forward-looking” statements that involve risks and uncertainties; these statements are subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Any number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated or forecasted results, including, but not limited to, expanded operations in emerging markets, such as Brazil, that expose the Company to greater political and economic volatility than its operations in established markets; costs and delays in connection with the Company's new ERP system and the costs associated with the litigation of the prior ERP system project; the ability to forecast volatility in earnings resulting from the quarterly revaluation of the Company's earnout obligation to the sellers of CDC; and macroeconomic circumstances that could impact the business, such as currency fluctuations,  credit market conditions, and an economic downturn.  For more information concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ from anticipated results, see the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013 and the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Except as may be required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including net sales excluding the translation impact of foreign currencies and return on invested capital ("ROIC").  Non-GAAP financial measures are used to better understand and evaluate performance, including comparisons from period to period, as described below.

Net sales excluding the translation impact of foreign currencies:  The Company discusses the percentage change in net sales excluding the translation impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates between reporting periods.  This measure enhances comparability between periods to help analyze underlying trends.

Return on invested capital ("ROIC"):  Management uses ROIC as a performance measurement to assess efficiency in allocating capital under the Company's control to generate returns.  Management believes this metric balances the Company's operating results with asset and liability management, excludes the results of capitalization decisions, is easily computed and understood, and is considered to have a strong correlation with shareholder value creation.  ROIC also provides management a measure of the Company's profitability on a basis more comparable to historical or future periods. In addition, the Company's Board of Directors uses ROIC in evaluating business and management performance.  Certain management incentive compensation targets are set and measured relative to ROIC. 

Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS: To evaluate current period performance on a clearer and more consistent basis with prior periods, the Company discloses adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which exclude costs associated with tax compliance and personnel replacement in the Company's Belgian office for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Management believes that these historical items are outside of the Company's normal operating expenses. Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are useful in better assessing and understanding the Company's operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and the non-GAAP financial measures that the Company reports may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.  Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be considered in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, measurements of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.  A reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial information to GAAP is set forth in the following Supplementary Information tables.
