Company Raises Full Year Outlook for Sales and Profits
NEWARK, Calif. & LAUSANNE, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Logitech International (SIX: LOGN) (Nasdaq: LOGI) today announced
financial results for the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2018.
-
Q3 sales were an all-time record $812 million, up 22 percent in US
dollars and 18 percent in constant currency, compared to Q3 of the
prior year.
-
Q3 GAAP operating income amounted to $100 million, compared to $96
million in the same quarter a year ago. Q3 GAAP earnings per share
(EPS) amounted to $0.48, compared to $0.59 in the same quarter a year
ago. GAAP profitability was impacted by a one-time $16 million net tax
expense following the reduction in the U.S. federal income tax rate
and other reforms.
-
Q3 non-GAAP operating income grew 18 percent to $117 million, compared
to $99 million in the same quarter a year ago. Q3 non-GAAP EPS grew 16
percent to $0.65, compared to $0.56 in the same quarter a year ago.
-
Cash flow from operations grew 27 percent to $189 million, the highest
quarterly level ever.
“This holiday quarter, we’ve delivered our highest quarterly sales ever
and highest sales growth in seven years,” said Bracken Darrell, Logitech
president and chief executive officer. “Video Collaboration, Gaming and
Mobile Speakers all grew 25% or more, and we gained share broadly across
our product categories. Our ASTRO acquisition also performed better than
expected. We are raising our Fiscal Year 2018 outlook.”
Outlook
Logitech raised its Fiscal Year 2018 outlook to 12 to 14 percent sales
growth in constant currency, up from its previous range of 10 to 12
percent sales growth in constant currency. The Company also increased
its non-GAAP operating income outlook for Fiscal Year 2018 to a range of
$270 million to $280 million, up from its prior range of $260 million to
$270 million.
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 Q3 FY 2018 on Tuesday, January 23, 2018 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern
Standard Time and 2:30 p.m. Central European Time. A live webcast of the
call will be 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 investments in privately
held companies, 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 preliminary financial results for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and our outlook for Fiscal Year
2018 operating income and sales growth. The forward-looking statements
in this release involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
Logitech’s actual results and events to differ materially from those
anticipated in these forward-looking statements, including, without
limitation: if our product offerings, marketing activities and

profitability or profitability growth we expect, or when we expect it;
if we fail to innovate and develop new products in a timely and
cost-effective manner for our new and existing product categories; if we
do not successfully execute on our growth opportunities or our growth
opportunities are more limited than we expect; the effect of pricing,
product, marketing and other initiatives by our competitors, and our

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

* Note: These preliminary results for the three and nine months
ended December 31, 2017 are subject to adjustments, including subsequent
events that may occur through the date of filing our Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
(A) Preliminary valuation from the business acquisition
The preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed
from the business acquisition during the current period is included in
the tables. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired
was based on estimates and assumptions made by us at the time of the
acquisition. As additional information becomes available, such as
finalization of purchase price adjustment and the finalization of the
estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we
may revise our preliminary or interim estimated fair value of the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed during the remainder of the measurement
periods (which will not exceed 12 months from the acquisition dates).
(B) 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 ended
December 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 gross profit, 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 investments in privately held companies. 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.
