Connection (CNXN) Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 Results
Connection (PC Connection, Inc.; NASDAQ: CNXN),
a leading technology solutions provider to business, government, and
education markets, today announced results for the quarter and year
ended December 31, 2017. Net sales for the quarter ended December 31,
2017 increased by 3.6% to $762.3 million, compared to $735.5 million for
the prior year quarter. Net income for the quarter ended December 31,
2017 increased by 59.4% to $20.7 million, or $0.77 per diluted share,
compared to net income of $13.0 million, or $0.49 per diluted share for
the prior year quarter.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted, which
among other changes, reduced the federal corporate income tax rate. This
rate reduction took effect on January 1, 2018, and the Company expects
its corporate income tax rate for 2018 to range from 27% to 29%. The
Company was also required to adjust its net deferred tax balance, which
resulted in the Company recording a non-cash income tax benefit of $7.7
million for the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition, the Company
recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017, a special charge of $2.7 million
related to a one-time cash bonus paid to all non-executive employees.
Earnings per share, adjusted for the reduction of federal income tax
expense and the special bonus described above, was $0.54 cents per share
for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, compared to $0.52 cents per
share for the prior year quarter.
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2017 were $2.9 billion, an
increase of $219.3 million or 8.1%, compared to $2.7 billion for the
year ended December 31, 2016. Net income for the year ended December 31,
2017 was $54.9 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, compared to net
income of $48.1 million, or $1.80 per diluted share, for the year ended
December 31, 2016. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and
rebranding, acquisition and restructuring costs ("Adjusted EBITDA"), a
non-GAAP measure, totaled $94.0 million for the year ended December 31,
2017, compared to $95.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Quarterly Performance by Segment:
-
Net sales for the Business Solutions (SMB) segment increased by 7.6%
to $298.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, compared to the prior
year quarter. Desktop, servers, and software products experienced
strong revenue growth in this segment with an increase of 31%, 26%,
and 15%, respectively. Gross margin decreased by 17 basis points due
to an increase in sales of velocity products, such as desktops and
notebooks.
-
Net sales for the Enterprise Solutions (Large Account) segment
increased by 7.2% to $308.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017,
compared to the prior year quarter. Storage, software, and servers
experienced solid growth during the quarter at 37%, 16%, and 8%,
respectively. Gross margin decreased by 43 basis points primarily due
to a continued competitive market environment.
-
Net sales to the Public Sector Solutions segment decreased by 8.8% to
$155.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, compared to the prior
year quarter. Sales to state and local government and educational
institutions decreased by 5.1%, compared to the prior year quarter,
and sales to the federal government decreased by 11.9%. Gross margin
decreased by 56 basis points primarily due to an ongoing competitive
market environment.
Quarterly Sales by Product Mix:
-
Software sales, the Company's largest product category, increased by
20% year over year and accounted for 24% of net sales in the fourth
quarter of 2017, compared to 21% of net sales in the prior year
quarter. We experienced solid growth in cloud-based offerings,
security, and office productivity.
-
Notebook/mobility sales decreased slightly year over year and
accounted for 21% of net sales in the fourth quarter of 2017, compared
to 22% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Sales of this product
category grew year over year in Business Solutions and Enterprise
Solutions, but were offset by lower notebook sales made under federal
contracts in our Public Sector, compared to the prior year quarter.
-
Desktop sales increased slightly year over year and accounted for 11%
of net sales in the fourth quarter of 2017 and 2016. Desktop sales to
federal government customers in the Public Sector declined year over
year but were offset by strong year-over-year growth in the Business
Solutions segment.
-
Servers increased by 22% year over year and accounted for 5% of net
sales in the fourth quarter of 2017, compared to 4% of net sales in
the prior year quarter. Both Business Solutions and Enterprise
Solutions experienced strong year-over-year growth in server sales.
Overall gross profit increased by $1.4 million, or 1.4%, in the fourth
quarter of 2017, compared to the prior year quarter. Consolidated gross
margin, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 13.1% in the fourth
quarter of 2017, compared to 13.3% for the prior year quarter. The
decline in gross margin was attributed to higher sales of velocity
products and an ongoing competitive marketplace.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly in the
fourth quarter of 2017 to $77.6 million from $77.2 million in the prior
year quarter due to increased variable compensation on our higher gross
profits, as well as the one-time bonus discussed above. SG&A as a
percentage of net sales was 10.2%, compared to 10.3% in the prior year
quarter. We continue to invest in technical solution sales capabilities
and expect SG&A expenses to rise accordingly. However, we are highly
focused on improving efficiencies and streamlining wherever possible.
Total cash was $50.0 million at December 31, 2017, compared to $49.2
million at December 31, 2016. In January 2018, we paid a 34 cent per
share special dividend to shareholders, which totaled $9.1 million. Days
sales outstanding were 48 days at December 31, 2017, unchanged from the
prior year end, and inventory turns were 24 turns in the fourth quarter
of 2017, up slightly from 22 days in the prior year quarter.
"I was pleased to see continued growth in our four strategic vertical
markets; manufacturing, retail, healthcare, and finance. We also saw
strong growth in software and workforce productivity during the
quarter," said Tim McGrath, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We
believe our team and the strategies we have in place position Connection
well to gain market share and increase long-term shareholder value,"
concluded Mr. McGrath.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is detailed below.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted for
stock-based compensation. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA 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 includes or
excludes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the
most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in
accordance with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA provide helpful information with respect to our operating
performance including our ability to fund our future capital
expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA also provides
helpful information as it is the primary measure used in certain
financial covenants contained in our credit agreements.

A reconciliation from Net Income to Adjusted Net Income is
detailed below. Adjusted Net Income is defined as Net Income
less the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, plus special
charges, net of tax. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted
Earnings Per Share are considered non-GAAP financial measures (see
note above in Adjusted EBITDA for a description of non-GAAP
financial measures). The Company believes that these non-GAAP
disclosures provide helpful information with respect to the
Company's operating performance.
