NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
Note A -- Basis of presentation
- -------------------------------
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals,
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the consolidated financial position and results
of operations at and for the periods presented. Such financial
statements do not include all the information or footnotes
necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should
be read in conjunction with the company's audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
the notes thereto. The results of operations for the interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Note B -- Stock repurchase program
- ----------------------------------
In July 1997, the company's Board of Directors renewed the
stock repurchase program initiated last year and authorized
management to purchase, from time to time, up to an additional
$50 million of the company's common stock. Over the past year,
Arrow has acquired over 2.8 million shares of its common stock
at a cost of $150 million.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
-------------------------------------------------
Condition and Results of Operations.
-----------------------------------
Sales
- -----
Consolidated sales for the six months and second quarter of
1997 increased 12 percent and 15 percent, respectively,
compared with the year-earlier periods. This sales growth was
principally due to increased activity levels in North America
and the Asia/Pacific region and the acquisition of the volume
electronic businesses (FES Group) of Premier Farnell plc,
offset, in part, by a stronger U.S. dollar. Excluding the FES
Group, sales for the six months and second quarter of 1997
increased approximately 6 percent and 8 percent, respectively,
compared with the year-earlier periods.
Operating income
- ----------------
The company recorded operating income of $212.4 million and
$108.3 million in the first six months and second quarter of
1997, respectively, compared with $221.6 million and $104.9
million, respectively, in the year-earlier periods. The
decrease in operating income in the first half of 1997
principally reflects the impact of lower gross profit margins
caused by competitive pricing pressures, offset, in part, by
increased sales and the acquisition of the FES Group. The
improvement in operating income in the second quarter of 1997,
compared with the year-earlier period, reflects the impact of
increased consolidated sales coupled with a reduction in lower-
margin microprocessor sales, offset, in part, by lower gross
profit margins due to competitive pricing pressures.
Interest expense
- ----------------
Interest expense of $30.0 million and $16.1 million in the
first six months and second quarter of 1997, respectively,
increased from $21.2 million during the first six months of
1996 and $9.8 million in the comparable quarter of 1996. The
increase from the first six months and second quarter of 1996
is a result of acquisitions, principally the FES Group, and the
repurchase of the company's common stock, offset, in part, by
lower interest rates.
Income taxes
- ------------
During the first six months and second quarter of 1997, the
company recorded a provision for taxes at an effective tax rate
of 41 percent and 40.9 percent, respectively, compared with
39.5 percent during the first six months of 1996 and 39.3
percent in the comparable quarter of 1996. The increase in the
provision is due to increased earnings in countries with higher
marginal tax rates.
Net income
- ----------
The company recorded net income of $102.1 million and $51.8
million in the first six months and second quarter of 1997,
respectively, compared with $110.9 million in the first six
months of 1996 and $54.1 million in the second quarter of 1996.
The decrease in net income for the first six months is due to
decreased operating income as well as an increase in interest
expense offset, in part, by a decrease in the provision for income
taxes and lower minority interest. The decrease in net income
for the second quarter is attributable to an increase in interest
expense, offset, in part, by higher operating income.
Liquidity and capital resources
- -------------------------------
The company maintains a high level of current assets, primarily
accounts receivable and inventories. Consolidated current
assets as a percentage of total assets were approximately 75.7
percent and 78.1 percent at June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
The net amount of cash used by the company's operating
activities during the first six months of 1997 was $118.4
million, principally reflecting increased working capital
requirements supporting higher sales. The net amount of cash
used for investing activities was $355.2 million including
approximately $341.2 million for investments and acquisitions.
The net amount of cash provided by financing activities was
$463.5 million, principally reflecting the $393 million of
proceeds from the issuance in January 1997 of the company's
senior notes and senior debentures and increases in the
company's credit facilities, offset, in part, by the purchase
of the company's common stock.
The net amount of cash provided by the company's operating
activities during the first six months of 1996 was $55.4
million, principally reflecting increased earnings offset, in
part, by an increase in working capital requirements. The net
amount of cash used for investing activities was $29.7 million,
including $12.4 million for various acquisitions. The net
amount of cash used for financing activities was $53.5 million,
principally reflecting the reduction in the company's
borrowings.
The company believes that its working capital, funds available
under its credit agreements, and additional funds generated
from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its cash
requirements at least through 1998.
