SEGMENT OVERVIEW

In North America, net sales were $889.3 million for the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of 4% compared to net sales of $923.1 million for the second quarter of 2013. Net sales of hardware, software and services decreased 1%, 8% and 7%, respectively, year to year. Gross profit of $125.0 million was flat year over year; however, gross margin increased to 14.1% for the second quarter of 2014 from 13.5% in the second quarter of 2013. Selling and administrative expenses in North America in the second quarter of 2014 were up 5%, or $4.3 million, compared to the second quarter of 2013. Selling and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2014 include non-cash charges of approximately $5.2 million, consisting of an impairment loss of approximately $4.6 million and accelerated depreciation of approximately $620,000, related to our Illinois real estate assets, which are held for sale. These non-cash charges were approximately $3.2 million net of tax. During the second quarter of 2014, severance and restructuring expenses recorded in North America were immaterial, compared to $967,000, $638,000 net of tax, during the second quarter of 2013. As a result, earnings from operations in North America decreased 9% year to year to $30.5 million, or 3.4% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $33.4 million, or 3.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the non-cash impairment and accelerated depreciation charges recorded in the second quarter of 2014 and severance and restructuring expenses in both periods, earnings from operations in North America on a non-GAAP basis increased 4% year over year to $35.7 million, or 4.0% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $34.4 million, or 3.7% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013.*

The Company's EMEA operating segment reported net sales of $446.9 million for the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 6% compared to the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, net sales increased 1% year over year. Net sales of hardware and services increased 28% and 6%, respectively, year over year, while net sales of software declined 2% year to year, all in U.S. dollars. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, hardware net sales increased 18% year over year, services net sales were flat and software net sales declined 6% compared to the second quarter of 2013. Gross profit of $56.1 million was up 3%, with gross margin decreasing to 12.6% for the second quarter of 2014 from 12.9% in the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, gross profit declined 3% year to year. Selling and administrative expenses in EMEA in the second quarter of 2014 were down 1%, or $279,000, compared to the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, selling and administrative expenses declined 7% year to year. During the second quarter of 2014, severance and restructuring expenses, net of adjustments, recorded in EMEA were $215,000, compared to $2.2 million, $1.9 million net of tax, of severance and restructuring expenses reported for the second quarter of 2013. As a result, earnings from operations in EMEA increased 72% year over year to $9.8 million, or 2.2% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $5.7 million, or 1.4% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013. Excluding severance and restructuring expenses in both periods, earnings from operations in EMEA on a non-GAAP basis increased 27% year over year to $10.1 million, or 2.3% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $7.9 million, or 1.9% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013.*    

The Company's APAC operating segment reported net sales of $81.8 million for the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 13% compared to the second quarter of 2013 in U.S. dollars. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, net sales increased 16% year over year. Gross profit of $13.5 million was up 12%, with gross margin decreasing to 16.5% for the second quarter of 2014 from 16.6% in the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the effects of foreign currency movements, gross profit increased 15% year over year. Selling and administrative expenses in APAC increased $668,000, or 10%, year over year in U.S. dollars, an increase of 15% year over year excluding the effects of foreign currency movements. During the second quarter of 2014, severance and restructuring expenses recorded in APAC were $109,000, and no severance and restructuring expenses were recorded in the second quarter of 2013. As a result, earnings from operations in APAC increased 12% year over year to $6.1 million, or 7.5% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $5.5 million, or 7.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013.

Throughout this "Segment Overview" section, the Company refers to changes in net sales, gross profit and selling and administrative expenses in EMEA and APAC excluding the effects of foreign currency movements. In computing these changes and percentages, the Company compares the current year amount as translated into U.S. dollars under the applicable accounting standards to the prior year amount in local currency translated into U.S. dollars utilizing the average translation rate for the current period.

Net of tax amounts referenced above were computed using the statutory tax rate for the taxing jurisdictions in the operating segment in which the related expenses were recorded.

* A tabular reconciliation of financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") to non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release.

UPDATED GUIDANCE

For the full year of 2014, the Company expects net sales to increase in the low-single digit range and diluted earnings per share to be between $2.02 and $2.10. 

This outlook reflects:

  • The adverse effect on gross profit of previously announced partner program changes in the software category, which the Company now expects to be between $10 and $15 million, with the majority of the effect to be realized in the back half of the year; and
  • an effective tax rate of approximately 38% to 39%.

This outlook does not reflect severance and restructuring expenses incurred during the year or the non-cash charge related to the Company's Illinois real estate recorded in the second quarter.

CONFERENCE CALL AND WEBCAST

The Company will host a conference call and live web cast today at 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss second quarter 2014 results of operations. A live web cast of the conference call (in listen-only mode) will be available on the Company's web site at http://nsit.client.shareholder.com/events.cfm, and a replay of the web cast will be available on the Company's web site for a limited time following the call. To listen to the live web cast by telephone, call 1-877-402-8904 if located in the U.S., 678-809-1029 for international callers, and enter the access code 51086200.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The non-GAAP financial measures exclude severance and restructuring expenses in 2014 and 2013, non-cash impairment and accelerated depreciation charges related to our Illinois real estate assets in the second quarter of 2014 and the tax effect of these charges. The Company excludes these charges when internally evaluating earnings from operations, tax expense, net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the Company and earnings from operations for each of the Company's operating segments. These non-GAAP measures are used to evaluate financial performance against budgeted amounts, to calculate incentive compensation, to assist in forecasting future performance and to compare the Company's results to those of the Company's competitors. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency, facilitate comparisons to prior periods and the Company's competitors' results and assist in forecasting performance for future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
