Insight Enterprises, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2020 Results

May 7, 2020 8:00 AM

TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Insight Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSIT) (the “Company”) today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Highlights include:

In the first quarter of 2020, cash flow from operations were strong at $93.1 million. Net sales increased 27%, year over year, primarily as a result of our acquisition of PCM, Inc. (“PCM”) on August 30, 2019. Gross profit increased 31%, year over year and gross margin increased 50 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2019. The increase in gross profit and gross margin reflects higher margins on hardware net sales and an increase in higher margin Insight delivered services. Earnings from operations declined 7%, year to year, primarily as a result of increased amortization of intangible assets from the PCM acquisition, acquisition and integration related expenses, increased teammate benefits and variable compensation, and severance and restructuring expenses.

“As global responses to COVID-19 progressed throughout the first quarter, our priority was to safeguard our teammates and core operating facilities and successfully deploy our more than 10,000 teammates across the globe to work-from-home,” stated Ken Lamneck, President and Chief Executive Officer. “At the same time, we focused on supporting our clients as they navigated the rapidly changing business environment,” stated Lamneck.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

In discussing financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 in this press release, the Company refers to certain financial measures that are adjusted from the financial results prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). When referring to non-GAAP measures, the Company refers to such measures as “Adjusted.” See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information. A tabular reconciliation of financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this press release.

In some instances the Company refers to changes in net sales, gross profit and earnings from operations on a consolidated basis and in North America, EMEA and APAC excluding the effects of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. 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 weighted average translation rate for the current period.

The tax effect of Adjusted amounts referenced herein were computed using the statutory tax rate for the taxing jurisdictions in the operating segment in which the related expenses were recorded, adjusted for the effects of valuation allowances on net operating losses in certain jurisdictions.

GUIDANCE AND ANTICIPATED COVID-19 IMPACT

The Company is withdrawing its 2020 financial guidance for net sales and Adjusted diluted earnings per share due to the high level of economic uncertainty and disruption caused by COVID-19. We observed a limited impact of COVID-19 on our first quarter financial results; however, we anticipate demand for our products and services will decrease significantly in the short term as business and consumer activity declines globally. The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business operations, financial performance and results of operation, including our ability to execute our business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frame, is currently unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, continuously evolving and cannot be predicted. This includes, but is not limited to, the duration and spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, such as related restrictions on travel and transportation, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.

CONFERENCE CALL AND WEBCAST

The Company will host a conference call and live web cast today at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss first quarter 2020 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://investor.insight.com/, 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 1-866-324-3683 if located in the U.S., 509-844-0959 for international callers, and enter the access code 8576576.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The non-GAAP financial measures are referred to as “Adjusted”. Adjusted consolidated earnings from operations, Adjusted consolidated net earnings and Adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude (i) severance and restructuring expenses, (ii) certain acquisition and integration related expenses, (iii) amortization of intangible assets, and (iv) the tax effects of each of these items, as applicable. Adjusted consolidated net earnings and Adjusted diluted earnings per share also exclude amortization of debt discount and issuance costs associated with the issuance of the Company’s convertible senior notes due 2025. The Company excludes these items 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. Adjusted free cash flow is the Company’s net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for (i) purchases of property and equipment and (ii) the net borrowings or repayments under the inventory financing facilities. Adjusted return on invested capital (“ROIC”) excludes (i) severance and restructuring expenses, (ii) certain acquisition and integration related expenses, (iii) impairment of construction in progress, and (iv) the tax effects of each of these items, as applicable.

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.
