Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
December 28, 1997
(Unaudited)
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination
of significant intercompany accounts and transactions. The financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. Independent auditors
have not examined the statements (and all other information in this report), but
in the opinion of the Company all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring
accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the period, have
been made. The results of operations for the period ended December 28, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the year ending June
30, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended June 30, 1997.
Note B - Income Taxes
U.S. income taxes are not provided on certain undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries aggregating approximately $42 million at December 28, 1997, which
are considered permanently invested. Otherwise, approximately $11 million of
cumulative deferred income taxes would have been provided. Income tax provision
for fiscal year 1998 differs from the U.S. statutory income tax rate primarily
due to state income taxes.
Note C - Earnings per Share
In the second quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company adopted the new earnings per
share computations required by FASB Statement No. 128. Basic earnings per share
is computed by dividing reported net income for the period by the weighted
average number of common stock outstanding during the period. A reconciliation
of the net income and weighted average number of shares used for the diluted
earnings per share computations follows:

Note D - Changes in Amount Outstanding of Securities or Indebtedness
At December 28, 1997 the Company had approximately $15 million of certain
accounts receivable sold under its asset securitization agreement, compared with
approximately $36 million at June 30, 1997. The Company can sell up to $200
million of certain accounts receivable with limited recourse under its asset
securitization agreement.
Total unused credit facilities available to the Company at December 28, 1997,
including that available under the asset securitization agreement, approximated
$658 million. The initial renewal date for the Company's credit facility has
been extended to December 8, 2002.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating
to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, plant
expansions, technological developments, new products, and similar matters. The
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements. In compliance with such safe harbor terms, the
Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company's actual results
and experience to differ materially from anticipated results or other
expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements or from past
performances. The risks and uncertainties that may affect operations,
performance, development and results of the Company's business include future
cash use and other factors noted in Item 1. of SCI Systems, Inc.'s Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.
Results of Operations
Sales for the second quarter were $1.79 billion compared to $1.48 billion in the
same period a year earlier, a 20.6% increase. Net income increased 26.8% to
$37.6 million from $29.6 million in the same quarter of fiscal 1997. Basic and
diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $.63 and $.55, respectively,
compared with $.50 and $.44 per share a year earlier. Return on average
shareholders' equity for the second quarter remained at 23.0%, the same level as
that experienced in fiscal 1997's second quarter.
Sales for the first six months of fiscal 1998 increased 21.6% to $3.53 billion
from $2.90 billion for the first six months of the prior fiscal year. Net income
increased 35.3% to $73.9 million compared with $54.7 million a year earlier.
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first six months were $1.24 and
$1.08, respectively, compared with $.92 and $.82 per share for the prior fiscal
year's first six months. Return on average shareholders' equity improved to
23.3% for the first six months of fiscal 1998 from 21.8% for the comparable
period in fiscal 1997.
Increased volume led to higher sales in fiscal 1998's second quarter and first
six months compared with the same periods in fiscal 1997. Finished product
assembly accounted for approximately one half of the Company's sales in the
first six months of fiscal 1998. Foreign sales increased to 31% of consolidated
sales in fiscal 1998's first six months in comparison to 25% in total for fiscal
1997. The current Asian Regional economic conditions have thus far had a small
effect on the Company. However, Asian price competition may become more severe.
This Region's sales are transacted primarily in U.S. dollars, and most products
manufactured in the Region are exported.
Operating margin for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 improved to 3.81% from
3.60% for the prior fiscal year's second quarter. Operating margin for the first
six months of fiscal 1998 improved to 3.78% from 3.48% for the same period in
last fiscal year. Improved cost efficiencies, especially in the Company's
foreign operations, generated this improvement. Immediate term operating margin
growth may be affected by sizeable current expansion programs.
Net interest expense decreased slightly to .29% of sales for fiscal 1998's
second quarter compared with .31% in fiscal 1997's second quarter. For the first
six months of fiscal 1998, net interest expense declined to .27% of sales from
the .36% experienced in fiscal 1997's first six months. Increased interest
income earned on temporary investment of cash not currently required to fund
existing operations generated the lower net interest expense for the first six
months. The Company anticipates that quarterly interest income will continue to
decline as the year progresses due to reduced investment of excess cash as it is
used to fund planned expansion.
Estimated effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate
primarily due to the effects of state income taxes.
Net income as a percent of sales improved marginally to 2.1% in fiscal 1998's
second quarter from 2.0% for fiscal 1997's second quarter. Net income as a
percent of sales improved to 2.1% in fiscal 1998's first six months from 1.9%
for the same period last fiscal year. These improvements resulted from improved
operating margin and lower net interest expense sales percentage.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
December 28, 1997's working capital of $748 million approximated June 30, 1997's
$754 million. The current ratio (1.8) at December 28, 1997 declined slightly
from June 30, 1997's ratio (2.0).
Available liquidity at December 28, 1997 was $864 million, comprised of $658
million in unused credit facilities and $206 million in cash and cash
equivalents. Lower available liquidity is anticipated during the remainder of
fiscal 1998 as cash is used to fund working capital and capital expenditures in
support of planned capacity expansion and revenue growth. The Company believes
that existing liquidity is sufficient to support near term growth. Fiscal 1998's
capital expenditures may be as high as $200 million, $100 million more than
estimated depreciation and amortization.
Order backlog believed by the Company to be firm at December 28, 1997 was $3.09
billion, compared with $2.76 billion a year earlier. The Company's backlog is
being affected by normal seasonality, shorten component lead times and
continuing average selling price declines.

The Commitment Fee Percentage shall be adjusted each fiscal quarter of Borrower
based on the Borrower's Debt Rating as of the end of such fiscal quarter. The
adjustment to the Commitment Fee Percentage shall be effective as of the first
(1st) Business Day after the last day on which the financial statements for such
fiscal quarter are required to be delivered to the Agent, the Co-Agent and the
Banks, pursuant to Section 9.12(a)(i) or 9.12(a)(ii), as appropriate, and shall
remain in effect until the next quarterly determination. From the effective date
of the Fourth Modification of Amended and Restated Credit Agreement among
Borrower, the Agent, the Co-Agent and the Banks signatory thereto until the next
quarterly determination, the applicable Commitment Fee Percentage is 0.125%.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Debt Rating assigned by Standard & Poor's
and the Debt Rating assigned by Moody's are at different levels (including
numerical modifiers and (+) and (-) as levels) on any date of determination, the
higher of the two Debt Ratings shall apply (provided, that in the event the
differential of the Debt Ratings is greater than one level (including numerical
modifiers and (+) and (-) as levels), the Debt Rating immediately below the
highest Debt Rating shall apply) and if only one of Standard & Poor's or Moody's
rates the Borrower's long-term senior unsecured debt, the Debt Rating of such
rating Person shall apply.
Permitted Transaction: Any action by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
which (i) would be prohibited by Section 10.01, Section 10.02, Section 10.03 but
for Section 10.01(viii) (in the case of Section 10.01), Section 10.02(x) (in the
case of Section 10.02) or Section 10.03(viii) (in the case of Section 10.03) and
(ii) involves, directly or indirectly, any Amount not in excess of $25,000,000.
(b) The Credit Agreement is hereby further modified by adding to Section 1.01
the following new definitions:
Debt Rating means, at any date of determination, the rating of the Borrower's
long-term senior unsecured debt by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, as the case may
be.
Moody's means Moody's Investor Services, Inc.
Standard & Poor's means Standard & Poor's Ratings Service.
(c) The Credit Agreement is further modified by deleting the date "December 8,
2000" appearing in the first line of the definition of "Credit Expiration Date"
in Section 1.01 and replacing it with the date "December 8, 2002".
(d) The Credit Agreement is further modified by deleting the first five
sentences of Section 3.01(e) thereof in their entirety and by substituting in
lieu thereof the following new sentences:
(e) The initial Credit Expiration Date shall be December 8, 2002. The Borrower
may, however, request an extension of the initial Credit Expiration Date by
submitting a written request to the Agent no earlier than September 30, 2001,
and no later than October 31, 2001. Upon such request, the initial Credit
Expiration Date may be extended by one additional year upon written consent of
the Required Banks. The Agent will give written notice to the Borrower, not more
than sixty (60) days after receipt of request for extension from the Borrower,
stating either that (i) the Required Banks have given their written consent to a
new Credit Expiration Date, which shall be specified in such notice, or (ii) the
Required Banks have not given their consent to the requested extension. Any
Credit Expiration Date subsequent to the initial Credit Expiration Date may be
extended by one additional year by following the same procedure as for extension
of the Credit Expiration Date, with the Borrower requesting such extension no
earlier than September 30 and no later than October 31 of each year subsequent
to 2001.
(e) The Credit Agreement is hereby further modified by adding to Section 4
thereof the following new Section 4.12:
4.12 Voluntary Reduction in Stated Amount to Zero. In the event that Borrower
delivers to the Co-Agent, the Depositary and the Dealer a Notice of Requested
Change in Stated Amount requesting a reduction in the Stated Amount to zero, the
Commercial Paper Banks hereby authorize the Co-Agent to amend the Letter of
Credit to reflect a Stated Amount of zero or, alternatively, to request the
Depositary to return the Letter of Credit to the Co-Agent for cancellation. Upon
receipt of the Letter of Credit from the Depositary, the Co-Agent is authorized
to cancel the Letter of Credit. If a Letter of Credit has been canceled pursuant
to this Section 4.12, Borrower may send written notice to the Co-Agent no
earlier than 30 days prior to the end of a calendar quarter of Borrower and no
later than 10 days prior to the end of such quarter, directing the Co- Agent to
issue a replacement Letter of Credit in an amount not to exceed the Total
Commercial Paper Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Co-Agent shall issue a replacement Letter of Credit upon the
satisfaction of the following conditions:
(i) All applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.02 and Section
7.03 hereof have been satisfied;
(ii) The Co-Agent, the Depositary and the Dealer shall have received written
confirmation from each of Moody's and Standard & Poor's that the rating assigned
to the Commercial Paper Notes by such Person following delivery of the
replacement Letter of Credit satisfy the requirements of Section 7.03(e) hereof;
(iii) The Borrower shall have delivered such other documents, agreements or
opinions as may be required by Moody's and Standard & Poor's as a condition to
such Person's execution and delivery of the confirmation described in clause
(ii) above;
(iv) The Co-Agent, the Depositary and the Dealer shall have received an opinion
of counsel for the Borrower that the Drawings under the replacement Letter of
Credit will not constitute voidable preferences under the Bankruptcy Code in the
event of the bankruptcy of the Borrower;
(v) The Co-Agent, the Depositary and the Dealer shall have received an opinion
of counsel for the Co-Agent (rendered at the cost and expense of the Borrower,
which cost and expense shall be reasonable) that the replacement Letter of
Credit is a legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Co-Agent
and that the issuance thereof is exempt from registration under the Federal
Securities Laws; and
(vi) The Co-Agent shall have received such other documents, certificates,
opinions (including reliance letters), approvals and filings as the Agent, the
Co-Agent or any of their counsel may reasonably request and which are customary
for transactions of this type, including without limitation, such agreements
from the Depositary as the Agent, the Co-Agent or any of their counsel may
reasonably request.
The Borrower agrees not to request, or permit, the authentication and delivery
of, any Commercial Paper Notes unless and until a Letter of Credit has been
issued and is outstanding and, in connection therewith, the foregoing conditions
precedent have been satisfied.
(f) The Credit Agreement is further modified by adding to the end of Section
9.12(a), the following new sentence:
Simultaneously with the delivery of each set of financial statements referred to
in clause (i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall also deliver to the Agent, the
Co- Agent and the Banks (x) a certificate from the Chairman, President,
Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower certifying to the
Borrower's Debt Ratings as of the date of such financial statements, and (y) a
copy of rating letters, if any, from Standard & Poor's and Moody's confirming
such Debt Ratings.
(g) The Credit Agreement is further modified by deleting the reference to
"10.03A(i)" from Section 10.02(x) and 10.03(viii), respectively.
(h) The Credit Agreement is further modified by deleting clause (i) of Section
10.03A in its entirety and by substituting in lieu thereof the following new
clause (i):
(i) Engage, directly or indirectly, in a transaction involving the acquisition
of any interest in or acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of
any Person so long as such acquisition is consistent with the Borrower's present
business operations and so long as the aggregate amount of such transactions
described in this Section 10.03A(i) does not exceed $150,000,000 during any
Fiscal Year of the Borrower; provided, however, for purposes of this Section
10.03A(i) only, the purchase price of any such transaction attributable to the
purchase of inventory by Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be excluded when
calculating the purchase price of such transaction; or
(i) The Credit Agreement is hereby further modified by deleting clause (b), (c)
and (d) from Section 15.02 thereof and by substituting, in lieu thereof, the
following new clause (b), (c) and (d):
