LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., May 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CDW Corporation (NASDAQ:CDW), a leading multi-brand technology solutions provider to business, government, education and healthcare in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, today announced first quarter 2016 results, a cash dividend to be paid in June 2016, and the authorization of a $750 million increase to the share repurchase program for the Company's common stock.

"First quarter results highlight the strength of our strategy and reinforce the power of our business model as we delivered solid topline growth and excellent profitability while continuing to invest in our future," said Thomas E. Richards, chairman and chief executive officer of CDW. "This performance reinforces our confidence in our capital allocation priorities, including today's dividend announcement and authorization of an additional $750 million in share repurchases."

"Strong operating results were amplified by lower interest expense, contribution from our 2015 acquisition of UK solutions provider, Kelway, and share repurchases with non-GAAP earnings per share increasing 19 percent," said Ann E. Ziegler, CDW's chief financial officer. "We expect ongoing share repurchases and incremental earnings from our UK operation to continue to amplify operating earnings growth and enable us to meet our medium-term annual target of low double-digit non-GAAP net income per share growth in 2016."

“We are well-positioned to achieve our target of outpacing US IT market growth by 200 to 300 basis points on an organic, constant currency basis in 2016. To accomplish this, we will continue our laser-focus on meeting the needs of our more than 250,000 customers in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom and remaining the partner of choice for more than 1,000 leading and emerging technology brands as the technology market continues to evolve," concluded Richards.

A quarterly cash dividend of $0.1075 per share will be paid on June 10, 2016 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 25, 2016.

First Quarter of 2016 Highlights:

Total net sales in the first quarter of 2016 were $3,117 million, compared to $2,755 million in the first quarter of 2015, an increase of 13.1 percent. Average daily sales in the first quarter of 2016 were $49 million, compared to $44 million in the first quarter of 2015 representing an 11.4 percent increase. There were 64 selling days in the first quarter of 2016 versus 63 selling days in the same quarter of 2015. On an average daily sales basis, organic net sales growth, which excludes the results of CDW UK (previously known as Kelway), was 3.1 percent. Average daily organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis versus first quarter 2015 was 3.5 percent, reflecting unfavorable foreign currency translation in CDW Canada's business. Prior to January 1, 2016, CDW Advanced Services was included in "Other" for financial reporting purposes. Effective January 1, 2016, CDW Advanced Services is included in our Corporate and Public segments, and prior periods presented have been recast to reflect this change. First quarter performance included:

  • Total Corporate segment net sales in the first quarter of 2016 were $1,692 million, 5.1 percent higher than the first quarter of 2015. Corporate average daily sales were 3.4 percent higher in the first quarter of 2016, as compared to the first quarter of 2015. Corporate results on an average daily sales basis reflected a 3.5 percent increase to Medium and Large customers and a 3.2 percent increase to Small Business customers.

  • Total Public segment net sales in the first quarter of 2016 were $1,069 million, 5.1 percent higher than the first quarter of 2015. Public average daily sales were 3.5 percent higher in the first quarter of 2016, as compared to the first quarter of 2015. Public results on an average daily sales basis were led by an increase of 13.7 percent to Government customers, partially offset by a 2.8 percent decline in Education sales. Healthcare sales increased 1.3 percent.

  • Net sales for CDW Canada and CDW UK, combined as “Other” for financial reporting purposes, were $355 million in the first quarter of 2016, $227 million higher than the first quarter of 2015. US dollar-denominated CDW Canada sales declined low single digits, while CDW Canada sales in local currency increased mid-single digits. Net sales generated by CDW UK during the quarter were $232 million. "Other" average daily sales in the first quarter of 2016 were $6 million, compared to $2 million in the first quarter of 2015, driven by the inclusion of CDW UK net sales in the first quarter of 2016.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2016 was $524 million, compared to $456 million in the first quarter of 2015, representing an increase of 14.9 percent. Gross profit margin was 16.8 percent for the first quarter of 2016 versus 16.6 percent for the same period in 2015, primarily due to an increased mix of 100 percent gross margin revenues, such as warranties and software as a service, that are booked net of cost of goods sold, and higher vendor partner funding, which more than offset declines in product margins.

Total selling and administrative expenses and advertising expense were $363 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $305 million in the first quarter of 2015, representing an increase of 19.2 percent. This increase was primarily driven by the inclusion of CDW UK expenses, higher coworker count, as well as higher marketing and advertising investment. Including CDW UK, coworker count was 8,624 as of March 31, 2016, compared to 7,254 as of March 31, 2015.

Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes expenses related to non-cash equity and retention compensation, loss and income from equity investments, acquisition and integration expenses, certain debt refinancing costs and certain other items, was $233 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $211 million in the first quarter of 2015, representing an increase of 10.4 percent. First quarter of 2016 Adjusted EBITDA margin was 7.5 percent, versus 7.7 percent for the first quarter of 2015. 

Interest expense decreased by $7 million to $38 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $45 million for the comparable period in 2015, reflecting a lower average interest rate. Long-term debt, net of cash and including current maturities of long-term debt, was $3,004 million as of March 31, 2016, $271 million higher than March 31, 2015, reflecting cash paid and debt consolidation as part of the acquisition of CDW UK.

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2016 was 37.2 percent, which resulted in a tax expense of $46 million, compared to a 37.1 percent tax rate and tax expense of $32 million in the first quarter of 2015.

Net income was $78 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $55 million in the first quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP net income, which excludes acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, expenses related to non-cash equity compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, certain debt refinancing costs and certain other costs, was $113 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared to $98 million in the first quarter of 2015, representing an increase of 15.5 percent.

Weighted average diluted shares outstanding were 169 million for the first quarter of 2016, compared to 173 million for the first quarter of 2015. The Company repurchased a total of 3 million shares for $118 million during the first quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $0.67, compared to $0.56 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, representing an increase of 18.5 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Organic net sales growth (defined as net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions within the last twelve months) and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis (defined as organic net sales growth excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on organic sales compared to the prior period) are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these measures provide helpful information with respect to the Company’s operating performance and cash flows, including the Company's ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements and the Company's ability to make dividend payments. Adjusted EBITDA also provides helpful information as it is the primary measure used in certain key covenants and definitions contained in the Company’s credit agreements.

The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP measures used by the Company may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE RECONCILIATIONS

The Company has included reconciliations of Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Organic net sales growth and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 below. Non-GAAP net income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, non-cash equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, and gains and losses from the extinguishment of long-term debt. With respect to Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, the numerator is Non-GAAP net income and the denominator is the weighted average number of shares as adjusted to give effect to dilutive securities. EBITDA is defined as consolidated Net income before Interest expense, Income tax expense, Depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a measure defined in the Company's credit agreements, means EBITDA adjusted for certain items which are described in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA margin means Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of the Company's Net sales. Organic net sales growth is calculated as net sales growth excluding the impact of acquisitions recorded within the last twelve months. Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis is calculated as organic net sales growth excluding the impact of currency translation on organic net sales compared to the prior period. Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Organic net sales growth, and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by the Company may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. The Company believes that Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Organic net sales growth and Organic net sales growth on a constant currency basis provide helpful information with respect to the Company's operating performance and cash flows, including the Company's ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA also provides helpful information as it is the primary measure used in certain key covenants and definitions contained in the Company's credit agreements.

(i) As a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03 during the second quarter of 2015, the March 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet has been revised to reflect the change in the presentation of deferred financing costs, which are now shown as a reduction of long-term debt, instead of being presented as a separate asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In the third quarter of 2015, the Company adopted ASU 2015-15 which allows entities to present deferred financing costs for line-of-credit arrangements as an asset. The Company retrospectively adjusted the deferred financing costs and long-term debt liability presented in the March 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet to align it to the current period presentation.
  
(ii) In the first quarter of 2016, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2015-17 on a prospective basis. Under the ASU, all deferred taxes are required to be presented as noncurrent on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
