Artesyn Reports Second Quarter 2005 Financial Results
BOCA RATON, Fla., July 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Artesyn Technologies, Inc.
(NASDAQ:ATSN) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July
1, 2005.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20050117/FLMLOGO )
Sales for the second quarter of 2005 were $108.1 million compared to $105.5
million for the corresponding quarter in 2004. For the first six months of
2005, sales were $210.5 million compared to $202.0 million for the same period
last year. Total orders received during the quarter were $100.2 million,
yielding a book-to-bill ratio of 0.93. Backlog at the end of the quarter was
$77.7 million with approximately 91% shippable during the third quarter.
During the second quarter, Artesyn had 27 major design wins that the Company
estimates will realize approximately $221 million in lifetime project revenues.
For the first six months of 2005, the Company had 57 major design wins and
estimates lifetime project revenues of approximately $575 million to be
realized in the next two to four years.
Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share,
compared to net income of $3.1 million, or $0.08 per share in the second quarter
of 2004. Included in net income for the second quarter were $3.3 million of
restructuring charges associated with an initiative to reduce operating costs.
The restructuring charges, net of tax, totaled $2.7 million, or $0.07 per
share, during the quarter. Net income for the first six months of 2005 was $2.0
million, or $0.05 per share, compared to net income of $5.0 million, or $0.13
per share for the same period in 2004.
The Company expects a total of $5.0 million of restructuring charges in 2005,
associated with the cost reduction initiative mentioned above. As part of this
initiative, Artesyn announced today that it will be closing the Tatabanya,
Hungary manufacturing facility, and intends to award European manufacturing
services work to Celestica Inc., a global electronics manufacturing services
(EMS) provider. Most of the products currently being manufactured in Hungary
will be transferred to Celestica's Romanian factory in Oradea. This transition
is expected to be complete by the end of 2005. Savings in 2006 from this
closure are estimated to be $6.0 million.
Discussing more about the factory closure, Artesyn's CEO and President, Joseph
O'Donnell, stated, "The decision to close the Hungarian facility was difficult,
but necessary to protect our competitive position while improving profitability.
Unfortunately, since opening the plant in 2001, our customers have reassessed
their regional sourcing needs resulting in an under-utilized facility.
"Our intent to outsource production to Celestica is primarily based on their
larger purchasing power and ability to leverage economies of scale from a
larger manufacturing base. Additionally, Celestica's global manufacturing
structure will open up sourcing options in different geographic locations as we
grow our global wireless infrastructure business. The new relationship with
Celestica gives us the ability to leverage our cost structure, as well as
improve gross margins and overall profitability."
Business Segment Results
Power Conversion
Second quarter sales for the Power Conversion segment grew 5% to $92.1 million
compared to $88.0 million for the second quarter of 2004. Sales for the first
six months of 2005 were $173.4 million compared to $171.4 million for the same
period last year.
Revenues in the wireless division increased as several new rectifier programs
began shipping during the quarter. However, Artesyn's largest market sector,
servers and storage, continued to have slower than anticipated growth,
negatively impacting sales and operating income for the segment. Included in
this segment's operating costs are restructuring charges of $3.1 million
discussed in detail above. As a result, the Power Conversion segment had an
operating loss of $0.7 million for the second quarter and a loss of $1.8
million for the first six months of the year.
"Rectifier programs have begun to add revenue to our wireless infrastructure
business and we expect to see a positive impact for the remainder of the year.
The server and storage business, however, will continue to be slow for the rest
of 2005 due to some large programs ending sooner than anticipated and before
many of the new program wins are rolled out. Based on three sequential quarters
of large design wins in this market, we anticipate significant growth over the
next two years," O'Donnell said.
Embedded Systems
Second quarter sales for the Embedded Systems segment decreased 9% to $15.9
million compared to $17.5 million for the second quarter of 2004. Sales for the
first six months of 2005 were $37.1 million compared to $30.7 million for the
same period last year. The decrease in sales is a result of two important
wireless customers significantly reducing their demand due to operator delays
of 3G rollouts in China and North America. Operating income was $4.0 million
for the second quarter and $11.0 million for the first six months of the year.
Mr. O'Donnell commented on the Embedded Systems second quarter results, "While
sales for the segment were significantly less than planned this quarter, costs
continued to be leveraged to maintain a healthy operating income.
Unfortunately, large operator plans are sometimes pushed out, as was done this
quarter and most likely for the remainder of the year. While this is
disappointing, we do continue to anticipate significant growth for 2006."
Second Half 2005 Outlook
The Company expects the second half of 2005 to improve sequentially each
quarter. Sales growth for the second half of 2005 is expected to range between
8% and 10% compared to the first half of the year. Second half operating costs
may increase approximately $0.03 per share as a result of manufacturing
inefficiencies associated with the transition of Hungarian manufacturing. There
will also be restructuring charges of approximately $0.02 per share in the
second half. Including these non-recurring costs and restructuring charges,
earnings per share for the second half of 2005 will range between $0.19 and
$0.23 per share.
