SYNNEX Corporation Reports Fiscal 2010 First Quarter Results

EPS of $0.66 from Continuing Operations Surpass Wall Street Estimates

FREMONT, CA—March 25, 2010—SYNNEX Corporation (NYSE: SNX), a leading business process services company, today announced financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended February 28, 2010.

For the fiscal first quarter, revenues from continuing operations were $1.94 billion, an increase of 12.5% compared to $1.72 billion for the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2009. The reported revenues of $1.94 billion reflect the impact of the Company’s fiscal first quarter 2010 change in revenue accounting for certain types of services and extended warranty contracts. These contracts, which would have contributed approximately $79 million of revenues in the fiscal first quarter, are now accounted for on a net fee basis. The Company’s fiscal first quarter revenue estimate did not anticipate this change in net revenue accounting. This change in revenue accounting had no effect on the gross profit reported.

Income from continuing operations before non-operating items, income taxes and non-controlling interest was $39.0 million, or 2.01% of revenues, versus $33.8 million, or 1.96% of revenues in the prior year fiscal first quarter.

Net income from continuing operations for the fiscal first quarter was $23.2 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, exceeding average Wall Street estimates of $0.62. This compares with $18.0 million, or $0.55 per diluted share in the prior year fiscal first quarter. Net income attributable to SYNNEX including the sale of China Civilink (Cayman) for the fiscal first quarter of 2010 was $34.7 million, or $0.98 per diluted share.

“I am very pleased with our continued industry-leading, financial performance and top-line growth. SYNNEX has, once again, gained market share while expanding our margins and growing our EPS and ROIC”, stated Kevin Murai, President and Chief Executive Officer. “This is a testament to our unique business model and our team’s ability to execute effectively within our differentiated business strategy and further develop our key initiatives.”

Financial Highlights:

 

 

Distribution revenues from continuing operations were $1.91 billion, an increase of 12.6% over the prior year fiscal first quarter.

 

 

Global Business Services revenues from continuing operations were $26.1 million, an increase of 6.8% over the prior year fiscal first quarter.


 

Distribution income from continuing operations before non-operating items, income taxes and non-controlling interest was $36.0 million, or 1.88% of distribution revenues, versus $31.1 million, or 1.83% of revenues from continuing operations in the prior year fiscal first quarter.

 

 

Global Business Services income from continuing operations before non-operating items, income taxes and non-controlling interest was $3.0 million, or 11.35% of Global Business Services revenues, versus $2.7 million, or 10.91% of revenues from continuing operations in the prior year fiscal first quarter.

 

 

SYNNEX’ cash conversion cycle was 45 days and includes the purchase of net working capital associated with the Company’s quarter-end acquisition of Jack of All Games, Inc.

 

 

SYNNEX’ debt to capitalization ratio was 26.6%.

 

 

The Company posted ROIC of 8.6% for the quarter.

 

 

First quarter depreciation and amortization were $2.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

 

 

First quarter capital expenditures were $2.4 million.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2010 Outlook:

The following statements are based on the Company’s current expectations for the second quarter of fiscal 2010. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.

 

 

Revenues are expected to be in the range of $1.95 billion to $2.03 billion. This range reflects the change in revenue accounting for certain service and extended warranty contracts which was adopted in the fiscal first quarter of 2010. Historically this business represented approximately 4% of reported revenues.

 

 

Net income is expected to be in the range of $22.1 million to $23.1 million.

 

 

Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.62 to $0.65.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 is based on a diluted weighted-average common share count of approximately 35.4 million.

“The outlook for the second quarter is based on our expectations of a stable demand environment and our continued focus on profitable growth,” Mr. Murai continued. “We remain highly confident in our track record and our ability to continue to grow market share, EPS and ROIC.”
