NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
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 split
- ---------------------
All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a
2-for-1 stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend paid
on October 15, 1997 to shareholders of record on October 3,
1997.
Note C -- Authorized shares and net income per common share
- -----------------------------------------------------------
Net income per common share is based upon the weighted average
number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
1996, the average number of common stock equivalents was
1,686,660 and 1,157,384, respectively. For the quarter ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996, the average number of common stock
equivalents was 1,714,656 and 887,312, respectively.
Note D - Special charges
- ------------------------
The consolidated statement of income includes special pre-tax
charges totaling $59,500,000 ($.40 and $.41 per share for the
nine months and quarter ended September 30, 1997, respectively)
related to the realignment of the company's North American
components operations and the integration of the volume
electronic distribution businesses (FES Group) of Premier
Farnell plc acquired earlier in 1997. Of this amount
$37,900,000 represents costs associated with the realignment of
the North American components operations into seven operating
groups based on customer needs. The costs associated with this
realignment principally include real estate termination costs,
severance and other expenses related to personnel, and costs
related to communicating the announcement of the realignment to
customers, suppliers, and employees. The remaining $21,600,000
represents costs associated with the integration of the FES
group including real estate termination costs, severance and
other expenses related to personnel performing duplicative
functions, professional fees, and the disposal of duplicative
fixed assets.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
-------------------------------------------------
Condition and Results of Operations.
-----------------------------------
Sales
- -----
Consolidated sales for the nine months and third quarter of
1997 increased 15 percent and 22 percent, respectively,
compared with the year-earlier periods. This sales growth
was principally due to increased activity levels throughout
the world and the acquisition of the FES Group offset, in
part, by the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar. Excluding
the FES Group, sales for the nine months and third quarter
of 1997 increased more than 9 percent and 15 percent,
respectively, compared with the year-earlier periods.
Operating income
- ----------------
The company recorded operating income of $259.3 million and
$47.0 million in the first nine months and third quarter of
1997, respectively, compared with $308.9 million and $87.4
million, respectively, in the year-earlier periods.
Included in 1997's results are special pre-tax charges of
$21.6 million associated with the integration of the FES
Group and $37.9 million related to the realignment of the
company's North American components operations. Excluding
these special charges, operating income was $318.8 million
and $106.5 million for the nine months and quarter ended
September 30, 1997, respectively. The improvement in
operating income, excluding the special charges, in the
first nine months and third quarter of 1997, compared with
the year-earlier periods, reflects the impact of increased
sales, the acquisition of the FES Group, and economies of
scale offset, in part, by lower gross profit margins caused
by competitive pricing pressures and a changing product mix
more heavily weighted to commercial computer products.
Interest expense
- ----------------
Interest expense of $48.2 million and $18.1 million in the
first nine months and third quarter of 1997, respectively,
increased from $30 million during the first nine months of 1996
and $8.8 million in the comparable quarter of 1996. The
increase from the first nine months and third quarter of 1996
is a result of acquisitions, the repurchase of the company's
common stock, and investments in working capital.
Income taxes
- ------------
Excluding the special charges, the company recorded a provision
for taxes at an effective rate of 40.9 percent and 40.8 percent
for the first nine months and third quarter of 1997,
respectively, compared with 39.7 percent and 40.2 percent in
the comparable year-earlier periods. The increase in the
provision for 1997 compared with the year earlier periods is
due to increased earnings in countries with higher marginal tax
rates.
Net income
- ----------
The company recorded net income of $111.4 million and $9.3
million in the first nine months and third quarter of 1997,
respectively, compared with $154.7 million in the first nine
months of 1996 and $43.8 million in the third quarter of 1996.
Excluding the special charges of $16.9 million, net of tax,
associated with the integration of the FES Group and the
special charge of $23.5 million, net of tax, related to the
realignment of the company's North American components
operations, net income was $151.8 million ($1.51 per share) and
$49.7 million ($.50 per share) for the first nine months and
third quarter of 1997, respectively. The decrease in net
income for the first nine months is due to a decrease in gross
profit margins and an increase in interest expense offset, in
part, by higher sales. The increase in net income for the
third quarter is attributable to higher operating income
offset, in part, by an increase in interest expense.
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 74
percent and 78 percent at September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
The net amount of cash provided by the company's operating
activities during the first nine months of 1997 was $33.3
million, principally reflecting earnings plus non-cash charges
offset, in part, by increased working capital requirements
supporting higher sales. The net amount of cash used for
investing activities was $373.1 million, including
approximately $350.9 million for investments and acquisitions.
The net amount of cash provided by financing activities was
$354.1 million 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 nine months of 1996 was $237.2
million, principally reflecting increased earnings and improved
working capital usage. The net amount of cash used for
investing activities was $48.1 million, including $22.6 million
for various capital expenditures and $37.8 million for various
investments and acquisitions. The net amount of cash used for
financing activities was $178.7 million, principally reflecting
the reduction in the company's borrowings, purchases of the
company's common stock and distributions to partners.
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.
