WALLINGFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amphenol Corporation (NYSE:APH) reported today second quarter 2016 GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.65 compared to $0.56 for the comparable 2015 period. GAAP diluted earnings per share for the second quarter 2015 included a charge for acquisition-related transaction costs of $6 million ($0.02 per share). Excluding the effect of this item, second quarter 2015 adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.58. Sales for the second quarter of 2016 were a record $1.548 billion compared to $1.351 billion for the comparable 2015 period. Currency translation had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $9 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the 2015 period.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.15, compared to $1.13 for the comparable 2015 period. The 2016 period includes a charge for acquisition-related costs of $30 million ($0.09 per share) relating to the acquisition of FCI Asia Pte Ltd (FCI) on January 8, 2016. Acquisition-related costs include external transaction costs, amortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog and restructuring charges. The 2015 period includes the $6 million ($0.02 per share) charge for acquisition-related transaction costs described above. Excluding the effect of these items, the adjusted diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1.24 and $1.15, respectively. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $2.999 billion compared to $2.679 billion for the 2015 period. Currency translation had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $28 million for the first six months of 2016 compared to the 2015 period.
Amphenol President and Chief Executive Officer, R. Adam Norwitt, stated, “We are very pleased to report results above the high end of our guidance for the second quarter 2016, with record sales of $1.548 billion and diluted EPS of $0.65. We achieved these results despite the ongoing uncertainty in the global economy. Compared to the second quarter 2015, sales increased by 15%, with growth in the information technology and data communications, mobile networks, industrial, broadband, automotive and mobile devices markets driven by contributions from the Company’s successful acquisition program as well as organic strength offset in part by modest declines in the military and commercial aerospace markets. Our unique entrepreneurial culture continues to enable strong operating results, as demonstrated by the Company’s operating margins reaching 19.4% in the second quarter 2016. This excellent profitability, especially considering the currently lower than Company average operating margins of FCI, is a direct result of our dynamic management team’s ability to drive disciplined operational execution together with an unrelenting focus on all elements of cost. We are pleased with the continued progress made by the FCI team after joining Amphenol, as they are now capitalizing on a wide range of opportunities to drive stronger long-term performance. Operating cash flow in the quarter was $243 million, a clear confirmation of the quality of the Company’s earnings. I am very proud of our organization as we continue to execute extremely well in an uncertain market environment.”
“The Company continues to expand its growth opportunities through a deep commitment to developing enabling technologies for customers in all markets, an ongoing strategy of market and geographic diversification, as well as an active acquisition program. As part of that program, in mid-July, the Company acquired both AUXEL FTG (Auxel) and Custom Cable. Auxel, based in France, is a global manufacturer of power busbars and power interconnect solutions to customers in the industrial and information technology and data communications markets with annual sales of approximately $50 million. Custom Cable, based in Florida, is a high service supplier of fiber optic and copper cable assemblies to the information technology and data communications market, with annual sales of approximately $30 million. These acquisitions strengthen the Company’s global capabilities and enhance our product offering in these important end markets.”
“In addition to our successful acquisition program, the Company continues to deploy its financial strength in a variety of ways to increase shareholder value. This includes the purchase, during the quarter, of 1.0 million shares of the Company’s stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plan, bringing total repurchases for the plan to over 6.5 million shares.”
“The current global economic environment remains volatile and uncertain. Considering this environment and based on current currency exchange rates, we expect third quarter 2016 sales in the range of $1.543 billion to $1.583 billion and diluted EPS in the range of $0.67 to $0.69. For the full year 2016, we now expect to achieve sales in the range of $6.120 billion to $6.200 billion, an increase over 2015 of 10% to 11% and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.60 to $2.64 for the full year 2016, an increase of 7% to 9% over 2015. This compares to our prior full year 2016 guidance of $6.080 billion to $6.200 billion in sales and $2.56 to $2.62 in adjusted diluted EPS. Adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes any one time or non-recurring items including those described herein relating to acquisition costs. On a GAAP basis, we expect diluted EPS of $2.51 to $2.55 for the full year 2016, an increase of 4% to 6% over 2015.”
“Notwithstanding the uncertain environment, we remain extremely excited about the future. The electronics revolution continues to create a significant, long-term growth opportunity for Amphenol, with new applications and higher performance requirements driving increased demand for our high technology products across all of our end markets. Our ongoing actions to strengthen our competitive advantages and build sustained financial strength, as well as our initiatives to broaden and diversify our high technology product offering both organically and through our successful acquisition program, have created a solid base for future performance. I am confident in the ability of our outstanding management team to dynamically adjust to the constantly changing market environment, to continue to generate strong profitability and to further capitalize on the many opportunities to expand our market position.”
