FY 2017 Retail Sales Grow 14%; Non-GAAP Operating Income Grows 33%
NEWARK, Calif. & LAUSANNE, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Logitech International (SIX:LOGN) (Nasdaq:LOGI) today announced
financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of Fiscal Year
2017.
Q4 closed a strong fiscal year with sales for the quarter reaching $496
million. Q4 retail sales grew 17 percent in constant currency, GAAP
operating income more than doubled to $22 million and non-GAAP operating
income grew 61 percent to $36 million.
For the full Fiscal Year 2017, ended March 31, 2017:
-
Retail sales grew 14 percent in constant currency, the highest annual
retail sales growth in six years. Retail sales grew 13 percent in USD;
also a six-year high.
-
Sales were $2.21 billion, up 9 percent in USD compared to the prior
year, which still included OEM sales, the business the Company exited
in Q3 of the prior fiscal year.
-
GAAP operating income grew 53 percent to $197 million - the highest in
nine years - compared to $129 million a year ago. GAAP earnings per
share (EPS) grew 51 percent to $1.16, compared to $0.77 a year ago.
-
Non-GAAP operating income grew 33 percent to $238 million - also the
highest in nine years - compared to $179 million a year ago. Non-GAAP
EPS grew 35 percent to $1.32, compared to $0.98 a year ago.
-
Cash flow from operations grew 52 percent to $279 million, the highest
level in seven years.
Bracken Darrell, Logitech president and chief executive officer, said,
“Our FY 2017 performance demonstrates the strength of our strategy. For
the fourth consecutive year, we accelerated growth in retail sales. We
grew across almost all our product categories and in all our regions.
Many categories - Video Collaboration, Mobile Speakers, Gaming, and
Smart Home - grew double digits, and PC Peripherals saw solid growth
too. And we’re just getting started. I’m excited by our pipeline of
innovative products and the amazing world of opportunities unfolding in
front of us.”
Vincent Pilette, Logitech CFO, said, “This is a watershed year for
Logitech. We improved our financial fundamentals, delivering our highest
gross margin in Company history while growing the business by 14%. That,
combined with our continued investment in growth initiatives, gives
Logitech a strong and exciting platform for the future.”
Outlook
Logitech confirmed its Fiscal Year 2018 outlook of high single-digit
retail sales growth in constant currency and $250 to $260 million in
non-GAAP operating income.
Prepared Remarks Available Online
Logitech has made its prepared written remarks for the financial results
teleconference available online on the Logitech corporate website at http://ir.logitech.com.
Financial Results Teleconference and Webcast
Logitech will hold a financial results teleconference to discuss the
results for Q4 and the full FY 2017 on Weds., April 26, 2017 at 8:30
a.m. Eastern Daylight Time and 2:30 p.m. Central European Summer Time. A
live webcast of the call will be available on the Logitech corporate
website at http://ir.logitech.com.
Continued Operations
Logitech separated its Lifesize division from the Company on Dec. 28,
2015. Since then, the results of Lifesize have not been included in our
financial statements. Except as otherwise noted, all of the results
reported in this press release as well as comparisons between periods
are focused on results from continuing operations and do not address the
performance of Lifesize, which is reported in the Company’s financial
statements under discontinued operations or total Logitech including
discontinued operations for all the periods prior to the disposition of
Lifesize. For more information on the impact of the Lifesize separation
on Logitech’s historical results, please refer to the Financial
Reporting section of Logitech’s Financial History, available on the
Logitech corporate website at http://ir.logitech.com.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and Constant Currency
To facilitate comparisons to Logitech’s historical results, Logitech has
included non-GAAP adjusted measures, which exclude share-based
compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, purchase
accounting effect on inventory, acquisition-related costs, change in
fair value of contingent consideration for business acquisition,
restructuring charges (credits), gain (loss) on equity-method
investment, investigation and related expenses, non-GAAP income tax
adjustment, and other items detailed under “Supplemental Financial
Information” after the tables below. Logitech also presents percentage
sales growth in constant currency to show performance unaffected by
fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Percentage sales growth in
constant currency is calculated by translating prior period sales in
each local currency at the current period’s average exchange rate for
that currency and comparing that to current period sales. Logitech
believes this information, used together with the GAAP financial
information, will help investors to evaluate its current period
performance and trends in its business. With respect to the Company’s
outlook for non-GAAP operating income, most of these excluded amounts
pertain to events that have not yet occurred and are not currently
possible to estimate with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Therefore, no
reconciliation to the GAAP amounts has been provided for Fiscal Year
2018.

statements regarding: our strategy, pipeline of products, innovation,
opportunities, investment in growth opportunities, platform for the

involve risks and uncertainties that could cause Logitech’s actual

product offerings, marketing activities and investment prioritization
decisions do not result in the sales, profitability or profitability
growth we expect, or when we expect it; the demand of our customers and
our consumers for our products and our ability to accurately forecast

opportunities are more limited than we expect; if sales of PC
peripherals are less than we expect; the effect of pricing, product,
marketing and other initiatives by our competitors, and our reaction to
them, on our sales, gross margins and profitability; if our products and
marketing strategies fail to separate our products from competitors’
products; if we do not fully realize our goals to lower our costs and
improve our operating leverage; if there is a deterioration of business
and economic conditions in one or more of our sales regions or product
categories, or significant fluctuations in exchange rates. A detailed

Note: These preliminary results for the three months and fiscal year
ended March 31, 2017 are subject to adjustments, including subsequent
events that may occur through the date of filing our Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
(A) Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial results prepared in
accordance with GAAP, we use a number of financial measures, both GAAP
and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing our overall business
performance, for making operating decisions and for forecasting and
planning future periods. We consider the use of non-GAAP financial
measures helpful in assessing our current financial performance, ongoing
operations and prospects for the future as well as understanding
financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and
results of operations.
While we use non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance our
understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance and to
provide incremental insight into the underlying factors and trends
affecting both our performance and our cash-generating potential, we do
not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the
information provided by GAAP financial measures. Consistent with this
approach, we believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the
readers of our financial statements provides useful supplemental data
that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial measures, can offer
insight in the review of our financial and operational performance and
enables investors to more fully understand trends in our current and
future performance. In assessing our business during the quarter and
year ended March 31, 2017, we excluded items in the following general
categories, each of which are described below:
Share-based compensation expenses. We believe that providing
non-GAAP measures excluding share-based compensation expense, in
addition to the GAAP measures, allows for a more transparent comparison
of our financial results from period to period. We prepare and maintain
our budgets and forecasts for future periods on a basis consistent with
this non-GAAP financial measure. Further, companies use a variety of
types of equity awards as well as a variety of methodologies,
assumptions and estimates to determine share-based compensation expense.
We believe that excluding share-based compensation expense enhances our
ability and the ability of investors to understand the impact of
non-cash share-based compensation on our operating results and to
compare our results against the results of other companies.
Amortization of intangible assets. We incur intangible asset
amortization expense, primarily in connection with our acquisitions of
various businesses and technologies. The amortization of purchased
intangibles varies depending on the level of acquisition activity. We
exclude these various charges in budgeting, planning and forecasting
future periods and we believe that providing the non-GAAP measures
excluding these various non-cash charges, as well as the GAAP measures,
provides additional insight when comparing our operating expenses and
financial results from period to period.
Purchase accounting effect on inventory. Business combination
accounting principles require us to measure acquired inventory at fair
value. The fair value of inventory reflects the acquired company’s cost
of manufacturing plus a portion of the expected profit margin. The
non-GAAP adjustment excludes the expected profit margin component that
is recorded under business combination accounting principles associated
with our business acquisitions. We believe the adjustment is useful to
investors because such charges are not reflective of our ongoing
operations.
Acquisition-related costs and change in fair value of contingent
consideration for business acquisition. We incurred expenses and
credits in connection with our acquisitions which we generally would not
have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as a part of our
continuing operations. Acquisition related costs include all incremental
expenses incurred to effect a business combination. Fair value of
contingent consideration is associated with our estimates of the value
of earn-outs in connection with certain acquisitions. We believe that
providing the non-GAAP measures excluding these costs and credits, as
well as the GAAP measures, assists our investors because such costs are
not reflective of our ongoing operating results.
Restructuring charges (credits). These expenses are associated
with re-aligning our business strategies based on current economic
conditions. We have undertaken several restructuring plans in recent
years. In connection with our restructuring initiatives, we incurred
restructuring charges related to employee terminations, facility
closures and early cancellation of certain contracts. We believe that
providing the non-GAAP measures excluding these charges, as well as the
GAAP measures, assists our investors because such charges (credits) are
not reflective of our ongoing operating results in the current period.
Gain (loss) on equity-method investment. We recognized gain
(loss) related our investments in various privately-held companies,
which varies depending on the operational and financial performance of
the privately-held companies in which we invested. We believe that
providing the non-GAAP measures excluding these charges, as well as the
GAAP measures, assists our investors because such charges are not
reflective of our ongoing operations.
Investigation and related expenses. These expenses are forensic
accounting, audit, consulting and legal fees related to the Audit
Committee’s investigation and the formal investigation by and settlement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), together with
accruals based on settlement with the SEC. We believe that providing the
non-GAAP measures excluding these charges, as well as the GAAP measures,
assists our investors because such charges are not reflective of our
ongoing operations.
Non-GAAP income tax adjustment. Non-GAAP income tax adjustment
primarily measures the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments
excluded above and other events; the determination of which is based
upon the nature of the underlying items, the mix of income and losses in
jurisdictions and the relevant tax rates in which we operate.
Each of the non-GAAP financial measures described above, and used in
this press release, should not be considered in isolation from, or as a
substitute for, a measure of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Further, investors are cautioned that there are
inherent limitations associated with the use of each of these non-GAAP
financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, these non-GAAP
financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting
rules or principles and many of the adjustments to the GAAP financial
measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and may be
reflected in the Company’s financial results for the foreseeable future.
We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information in
the reconciliation included in this press release regarding the GAAP
amounts excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, as
noted above, we evaluate the non-GAAP financial measures together with
the most directly comparable GAAP financial information.
Additional Supplemental Financial Information - Constant Currency
In addition, Logitech presents percentage sales growth in constant
currency to show performance unaffected by fluctuations in currency
exchange rates. Percentage sales growth in constant currency is
calculated by translating prior period sales in each local currency at
the current period’s average exchange rate for that currency and
comparing that to current period sales.
