-- Net Sales Increased 14 Percent to $3.7 Billion; Organic Sales Growth of 7 Percent
-- Earnings Per Share (EPS) From Continuing Operations of $0.62 on a GAAP Basis, Up 9 Percent; Adjusted EPS of $0.67, an Increase of 12 Percent Over Prior Year
-- Income From Operations of $501 Million Increased 20 Percent and Adjusted Operating Income of $514 Million Increased 17 Percent
-- Company Increases 2008 Outlook for Adjusted EPS From Continuing Operations to $2.60 to $2.66, an Increase of 21 to 24 Percent Over Prior Year
PEMBROKE, Bermuda, May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tyco Electronics Ltd. (NYSE: TEL)(BSX: TEL) today reported net sales of $3.7 billion for the fiscal second quarter ended Mar. 28, 2008, an increase of 14 percent over the prior- year period. Excluding currency effects, organic sales growth was 7 percent. GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations were $0.62 for the quarter, compared to $0.57 in the prior-year period. Included in EPS from continuing operations was $0.05 of net charges -- comprised of $0.04 per share of income related to a gain from the sale of real estate, which was more than offset by a charge of $0.05 per share for the company's portion of a Tyco International securities litigation settlement with the State of New Jersey and $0.04 per share of restructuring costs. This compares to $0.03 per share of charges in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations were $0.67 in the quarter, an increase of 12 percent over last year's adjusted EPS of $0.60.
"We had a strong second quarter with double-digit sales and earnings growth," said Tyco Electronics Chief Executive Officer Tom Lynch. "The strength of our businesses that serve the global industrial and infrastructure markets more than offset slower growth in the consumer markets served by our Electronic Components segment. Our adjusted operating income grew by 17 percent and our adjusted operating margin improved slightly, compared to the prior year. We also repurchased over 10 million of our shares in the quarter and announced that we are pursuing another divestiture to further focus our company."
Organic Sales Growth, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Operating Margin and Free Cash Flow are all non-GAAP financial measures and are described at the end of this press release. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, see the attached tables. All dollar amounts are pre-tax and stated in millions. All comparisons are to the quarter ended Mar. 30, 2007 unless otherwise indicated.
($ in millions) Mar. 28, Mar. 30, 2008 2007 $ Change % Change Net Sales $3,662 $3,204 $458 14% Operating Income $501 $419 $82 20% Restructuring-Related Costs $(26) $(8) Other Items, Net $13 $(14) Adjusted Operating Income $514 $441 $73 17% Operating Margin 13.7% 13.1% Adjusted Operating Margin 14.0% 13.8%
GAAP operating income was $501 million, compared to $419 million in the prior-year period, an increase of 20 percent. The operating margin on a GAAP basis was 13.7 percent, compared to 13.1 percent in the prior-year period. Included in the current quarter operating income was a $36 million pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate, which was more than offset by a $23 million charge related to the company's portion of a Tyco International securities litigation settlement with the State of New Jersey and $26 million of restructuring costs. Included in prior-year operating income were $8 million of restructuring costs and $14 million of separation-related costs. Excluding these items in both periods, adjusted operating income was $514 million compared to $441 million a year ago, an increase of 17 percent. The adjusted operating margin was 14.0 percent, compared to 13.8 percent a year ago, primarily reflecting the benefit of higher sales volumes and a favorable sales mix in the Undersea Telecommunications and Wireless Systems segments.
CASH FLOW
Free cash flow was $349 million in the quarter, an increase of 47 percent, primarily due to higher operating income levels. Net cash used in continuing operating activities was $457 million, reflecting the $936 million transfer of escrowed funds to satisfy a 2007 Tyco International class action settlement. The settlement was previously funded and had no impact on the company's financial position or cash levels. Adjusting for this item, cash from continuing operations was $479 million, an increase of 32 percent.
OTHER ITEMS -- The company is pursuing the divestiture of the Radio Frequency Components and Subsystems business formerly in its Wireless Systems segment. The company has reported this business as a discontinued operation and all periods presented have been reclassified to exclude the results of this business from continuing operations. The business generated revenue of $114 million and operating income of $4 million in the second quarter. -- The company's Board of Directors authorized an increase in the company's share repurchase program to $1.25 billion from $750 million. During the quarter, the company repurchased 10.3 million shares. At the end of the quarter, the company had approximately $650 million remaining on the current authorization. ORDERS
Total company orders grew 16 percent compared to the prior year. On an organic basis, excluding the effects of currency translation, orders grew 9 percent and the book-to-bill ratio was 1.05. Excluding the company's Undersea Telecommunications and Wireless Systems segments, which are project-oriented businesses with uneven order patterns, orders grew 14 percent overall and 5 percent organically in the quarter, and the book-to-bill ratio was 1.05.
COMPANY RAISES FISCAL 2008 OUTLOOK
The company now expects adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $2.60 to $2.66 for the full fiscal year 2008, compared to $2.14 in the prior year -- an increase of 21 to 24 percent. This compares to the company's prior outlook of $2.45 to $2.55 per share. The company continues to expect restructuring- related costs of approximately $130 million ($0.17 per share) for the full year. The company expects full-year sales growth of 14 to 16 percent with organic sales growth of 7 to 9 percent. This outlook assumes stable foreign exchange rates and raw material prices for the remainder of the fiscal year and excludes the one-time $1.15 per share benefit related to the company's tax sharing agreement from the adoption of FIN 48.
For the third quarter of fiscal 2008, the company expects sales growth of 15 to 17 percent over prior-year sales of $3.3 billion, with organic sales growth of 7 to 9 percent. The company further expects diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.63 to $0.65, which includes restructuring costs of approximately $0.03 per share. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations are expected to be $0.66 to $0.68, an increase of 35 to 39 percent over the prior- year quarter. This outlook assumes a 36 percent tax rate and Other Income of approximately $15 to $20 million, compared to a 41 percent tax rate and no Other Income in last year's third quarter adjusted income. The combination of a lower tax rate and increased Other Income favorably impacts the year-over- year comparison by approximately $0.07 per share.
"Our revised outlook reflects our second quarter performance, along with the strength of our order rates and backlog, primarily in businesses that serve the global infrastructure and industrial markets, as well as our automotive business outside the U.S.," said Lynch.
SEGMENT RESULTS
Tyco Electronics is comprised of four reporting segments: Electronic Components, Network Solutions, Undersea Telecommunications and Wireless Systems.
Electronic Components
The Electronic Components segment is one of the world's largest suppliers of passive electronic components, including connectors and interconnect systems, relays, switches, circuit protection devices, touchscreens, sensors, and wire and cable.
($ in millions) Mar. 28, Mar. 30, Organic 2008 2007 $ Change % Change Growth Net Sales $2,760 $2,540 $220 9% 1% Operating Income $419 $351 $68 19% Restructuring-Related Costs $(15) $(8) Other Items $36 $(11) Adjusted Operating Income $398 $370 $28 8% Operating Margin 15.2% 13.8% Adjusted Operating Margin 14.4% 14.6%
Sales in the segment grew 9 percent year over year, or 1 percent organically. On an organic basis, strong growth in the industrial machinery (+16 percent), communications (+14 percent) and aerospace and defense (+11 percent) markets was mostly offset by declines in certain consumer-related markets -- including declines in the computer (-6 percent), consumer electronics (-20 percent) and appliance (-5 percent) markets. Sales to the automotive market grew 2 percent, with 6 percent growth in markets outside North America more than offsetting a 17 percent decline in North America.
Operating income increased by $68 million, which included a $36 million gain on the sale of real estate, and adjusted operating income grew $28 million. The adjusted operating margin decreased slightly due to lower volume growth and increases in commodities prices, partially offset by pricing and productivity improvements. Restructuring costs in the quarter were $15 million, compared to $8 million of restructuring and $11 million of separation-related costs in the prior-year quarter.
Network Solutions
The Network Solutions segment is one of the world's largest suppliers of infrastructure components and systems for the communication service provider, building networks and energy markets.
($ in millions) Mar. 28, Mar. 30, Organic 2008 2007 $ Change % Change Growth Net Sales $517 $454 $63 14% 5% Operating Income $53 $59 $(6) (10)% Restructuring-Related $(9) $0 Costs $0 $(2) Other Items Adjusted Operating Income $62 $61 $1 2% Operating Margin 10.3% 13.0% Adjusted Operating Margin 12.0% 13.4%
Segment sales grew 14 percent compared to the prior-year quarter, or 5 percent organically. On an organic basis, sales to the building networks and energy markets grew 14 percent and 5 percent respectively, both reflecting strong demand in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia. Sales to the communication service provider market decreased 1 percent, primarily due to slower than expected network investment by certain European carriers, mostly offset by growth in North America.
Operating income decreased by $6 million and adjusted operating income increased by $1 million. The decrease in the adjusted operating margin primarily relates to a lower-margin sales mix and lower productivity levels in EMEA as a result of the revenue decline in the communication service provider market. Restructuring costs in the quarter were $9 million, compared to no such costs in the prior-year quarter.
Undersea Telecommunications
The company's Undersea Telecommunications segment is a world leader in developing, manufacturing, installing and maintaining the world's most advanced fiber optic undersea networks.
($ in millions) Mar. 28, Mar. 30, Organic 2008 2007 $ Change % Change Growth Net Sales $272 $122 $150 123% 122% Operating Income $39 $4 $35 NM Restructuring-Related Costs $(2) $0 Adjusted Operating NM Income $41 $4 $37 Operating Margin 14.3% 3.3% Adjusted Operating Margin 15.1% 3.3%
Sales in the segment grew 122 percent organically versus the prior year, due to continued investment in undersea fiber optic network capacity, primarily in emerging markets. Adjusted operating income increased $37 million and the adjusted operating margin increased to 15.1 percent, driven by higher volumes and a favorable project mix. Restructuring-related costs in the current quarter were $2 million, compared to no such costs in the prior- year quarter.
Wireless Systems
The Wireless Systems segment is a leading innovator of wireless technology for critical communications.
($ in millions) Mar. 28, Mar. 30, Organic 2008 2007 $ Change % Change Growth Net Sales $113 $88 $25 28% 24% Operating Income $13 $5 $8 160% Other Items $0 $(1) Adjusted Operating Income $13 $6 $7 117% Operating Margin 11.5% 5.7% Adjusted Operating Margin 11.5% 6.8%
Sales in the segment grew $25 million versus the prior year, primarily due to increased radio sales related to the federally-mandated re-banding efforts of a customer. Adjusted operating income increased $7 million due to higher sales volumes and a more favorable sales mix. There were no other items in the current quarter, compared to separation-related costs of $1 million in the prior-year quarter.

"Organic Sales Growth," "Adjusted Operating Income," "Adjusted Earnings Per Share," "Adjusted Operating Margin," and "Free Cash Flow" (FCF) are non- GAAP measures and should not be considered replacements for GAAP results.
"Organic Sales Growth" is a useful measure used by the company to measure the underlying results and trends in the business. The difference between reported net sales growth (the most comparable GAAP measure) and Organic Sales Growth (the non-GAAP measure) consists of the impact from foreign currency, acquisitions and divestitures. Organic Sales Growth is a useful measure of the company's performance because it excludes items that: i) are not completely under management's control, such as the impact of foreign currency exchange; or ii) do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity. It is also a component of the company's compensation programs. The limitation of this measure is that it excludes items that have an impact on the company's sales. This limitation is best addressed by using organic sales growth in combination with the GAAP numbers. See the accompanying tables to this press release for the reconciliation presenting the components of Organic Sales Growth.
The company has presented its operating income before unusual items including costs related to the separation, legal settlements, restructuring costs and other income or charges ("Adjusted Operating Income"). The company utilizes Adjusted Operating Income to assess segment level core operating performance and to provide insight to management in evaluating segment operating plan execution and underlying market conditions. It is also a significant component in the company's incentive compensation plans. Adjusted Operating Income is a useful measure for investors because it better reflects the company's underlying operating results, trends and the comparability of these results between periods. The difference between Adjusted Operating Income and operating income (the most comparable GAAP measure) consists of the impact of charges related to litigation settlement costs, separation-related costs and restructuring costs and other income or charges that may mask the underlying operating results and/or business trends. The limitation of this measure is that it excludes the financial impact of items that would otherwise either increase or decrease the company's reported operating income. This limitation is best addressed by using Adjusted Operating Income in combination with operating income (the most comparable GAAP measure) in order to better understand the amounts, character and impact of any increase or decrease on reported results.
The company has presented adjusted diluted earnings per share, which is earnings per share from continuing operations before unusual items, including costs related to the separation, legal settlements, restructuring costs, loss on retirement of debt and other income or charges ("Adjusted Earnings Per Share"). The company presents Adjusted Earnings Per Share because we believe that it is appropriate for investors to consider results excluding these items in addition to our results in accordance with GAAP. We believe such a measure provides a picture of our results that is more comparable among periods since it excludes the impact of unusual items, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to timing, thereby making comparisons between periods more difficult. This limitation is best addressed by using Adjusted Earnings Per Share in combination with earnings per share (the most comparable GAAP measure) in order to better understand the amounts, character and impact of any increase or decrease on reported results.
The company has presented its operating margin before unusual items including costs related to the separation, legal settlements, restructuring costs and other income or charges ("Adjusted Operating Margin"). The company presents and forecasts its Adjusted Operating Margin before unusual items to give investors a perspective on the underlying business results. Because the company cannot predict the amount and timing of such items and the associated charges or gains that will be recorded in the company's financial statements, it is difficult to include the impact of those items in the forecast.
"Free Cash Flow" (FCF) is a useful measure of the company's cash generation which is free from any significant existing obligation. The difference between cash flows from operating activities (the most comparable GAAP measure) and FCF (the non-GAAP measure) consists mainly of significant cash outflows that the company believes are useful to identify. FCF permits management and investors to gain insight into the number that management employs to measure cash that is free from any significant existing obligation. The difference reflects the impact from:
-- net capital expenditures, -- voluntary pension contributions, and -- cash impact of unusual items.
Net capital expenditures are subtracted because they represent long-term commitments. Voluntary pension contributions are subtracted from the GAAP measure because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. The company forecasts its cash flow results excluding any voluntary pension contributions because it has not yet made a determination about the amount and timing of any future such contributions. In addition, the company's forecast excludes the cash impact of unusual items because the company cannot predict the amount and timing of such items.
The limitation associated with using FCF is that it subtracts cash items that are ultimately within management's and the Board of Directors' discretion to direct and that therefore may imply that there is less or more cash that is available for the company's programs than the most comparable GAAP measure. This limitation is best addressed by using FCF in combination with the GAAP cash flow numbers.
FCF as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. The measure should be used in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures. Investors are urged to read the company's financial statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the accompanying tables to this press release that show all the elements of the GAAP measures of Cash Flows from Operating Activities, Cash Flows from Investing Activities, Cash Flows from Financing Activities and a reconciliation of the company's total cash and cash equivalents for the period. See the accompanying tables to this press release for a cash flow statement presented in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation presenting the components of FCF.
