Unisys re-affirms full-year guidance for total company revenue, non-GAAP operating profit margin and adjusted free cash flow

Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today reported second quarter 2016 results highlighted by continued year-over-year increases in operating profit margin, operating cash flow and free cash flow⁽³⁾.

The company reported an operating profit margin of 6.6 percent including cost reduction charges and pension expense, an increase of 1310 basis points relative to operating profit margin of (6.5) percent in the second quarter of 2015, consistent with ongoing cost-cutting efforts and helped by increased revenues from higher-margin technology products. Second quarter 2016 non-GAAP operating profit margin was 10.8 percent, an increase of 690 basis points from the prior year. In addition, operating cash flow for the quarter increased by $55.7 million versus the prior year to $34.6 million, while adjusted free cash flow in the second quarter of 2016 increased $78.7 million from the prior year to $54.3 million, representing the third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted free cash flow. The Company also reported diluted earnings per share of $0.36 versus ($1.17) in the same quarter a year ago and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.81 versus $0.33 in the second quarter of 2015. Revenues for the second quarter 2016 were $748.9 million, which is down 2 percent or down less than 1 percent on a constant-currency basis relative to the second quarter of 2015.

"Our second quarter results reflect improvement in our GAAP and non-GAAP operating profit margin and cash flow generation. Revenues were slightly down, less than 1 percent, on a constant-currency basis," said Unisys President and CEO Peter Altabef. "We are continuing to execute against the strategy we commenced in 2015, which focuses on providing security in everything we do, growing demand for both cyber and physical security offerings, while investing to improve our go-to-market effectiveness by aligning vertically."

Summary of Second Quarter 2016 Business Results

Company:

Overall operating profit margin of 6.6 percent includes cost reduction charges and pension expense. Second quarter 2016 non-GAAP operating profit margin was 10.8 percent, an increase of 690 basis points from the prior year.
Net income grew to $21.6 million versus $(58.2) million in the second quarter of 2015, representing margin expansion of 1050 basis points. Adjusted EBITDA⁽⁵⁾ saw growth of 71.0 percent to $123.6 million versus the prior year, representing margin expansion of 710 basis points.
Overall increased profitability was driven in large part by decreased operating expenses resulting from the company's ongoing cost-cutting efforts and was also helped by an increase in revenues from higher-margin technology products.
Operating cash flow increased by $55.7 million versus the prior year to $34.6 million, while adjusted free cash flow in the second quarter 2016 increased $78.7 million from the prior year, representing the third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted free cash flow.
Revenue of $748.9 million declined 2.1 percent year over year or (0.9) percent on a constant-currency basis.

Services:

Services revenue, which represented 82.0 percent of total revenue, declined by 7.2 percent to $613.8 million, down 6.1 percent in constant currency. The decline in the Services business was largely offset by a strong quarter for the Technology business, as noted below.
Services gross margin improved 110 basis points from 15.7 percent to 16.8 percent. Services operating profit margin was 2.1 percent, a decrease of 10 basis points from the prior year, or flat on a constant-currency basis, reflecting continued investment in the business to reach longer-term profitability goals.
Total Services backlog ended the second quarter at $3.8 billion, down 13.7 percent year-over-year.

Technology:

Technology revenue, which represented 18.0 percent of total revenue, increased 30.7 percent year-over-year, 32.4 percent in constant currency, largely driven by increased ClearPath Forwardâ„¢ sales.
Technology operating profit margin improved to 48.0 percent from 15.6 percent in the prior year due to increased gross margins, as well as the benefit of selling, general & administrative reductions.

Cash Flow:

Capital expenditures declined 36.4 percent year-over-year to $34.0 million, reflective of significant investments in outsourcing assets that were made in the second quarter of 2015.
Second quarter 2016 operating cash flow increased by $55.7 million versus the prior year to $34.6 million. Free cash flow of $0.6 million improved $75.2 million year-over-year and was positive due to higher operating cash flow and lower capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow in the second quarter of 2016 increased $78.7 million from the prior year to $54.3 million, representing the third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted free cash flow.
During the second quarter 2016, the company executed on cost-cutting plans, largely related to headcount reductions, that are expected to result in $30 million of annualized cost savings, bringing the total to date to $155 million against a plan of $200 million for 2016, with another $30 million expected in 2017.
At June 30, 2016, the company had $463.6 million in cash.

Continued Execution on Business Strategy
The company recently made several major announcements regarding security, alliances, and groundbreaking technologies:

*Constant currency â€“ The company refers to growth rates in constant currency or on a constant currency basis so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the company's business performance from one period to another. Constant currency is calculated by retranslating current and prior period results at a consistent rate.

Non-GAAP Information
Although appropriate under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company's results reflect charges that the company believes are not indicative of its ongoing operations and that can make its profitability and liquidity results difficult to compare to prior periods, anticipated future periods, or to its competitors' results. These items consist of pension and restructuring costs. Management believes each of these items can distort the visibility of trends associated with the company's ongoing performance. Management also believes that the evaluation of the company's financial performance can be enhanced by use of supplemental presentation of its results that exclude the impact of these items in order to enhance consistency and comparativeness with prior or future period results. The following measures are often provided and utilized by the company's management, analysts, and investors to enhance comparability of year-over-year results, as well as to compare results to other companies in our industry.

⁽¹⁾ Non-GAAP operating profit â€“ During the second quarter 2016 and 2015, Unisys recorded pretax pension expense and a pretax charge in connection with cost reduction actions. The company believes that this profitability measure is more indicative of the company's operating results and aligns those results to the company's external guidance which is used by the company's management to allocate resources and may be used by analysts and investors to gauge the company's ongoing performance.

⁽²⁾ Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share â€“ During the second quarter 2016 and 2015, Unisys recorded pension expense and a charge in connection with cost reduction actions (both net of tax). Management believes that investors may have a better understanding of the company's performance and return to shareholders by excluding these charges from the non-GAAP diluted earnings/loss per share calculations. The tax amounts netted from pension expense and the charge in connection with cost reduction actions for the calculation of non-GAAP diluted earnings per share include the current and deferred tax expense and benefits recognized under GAAP for pension expense and restructuring costs during the second quarter 2016 and 2015.

⁽³⁾ Free cash flow â€“ The company defines free cash flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. Management believes this liquidly measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from on-going operating activities in excess of amounts required for reinvestment.

⁽⁴⁾ Adjusted free cash flow â€“ Because inclusion of the company's pension contributions and cost reduction payments in free cash flow may distort the visibility of the company's ability to generate cash flow from its operations without the impact of these non-operational costs, management believes that investors may be interested in adjusted free cash flow, which provides free cash flow before these payments and is more indicative of its on-going operations. This liquidity measure was provided to analysts and investors in the form of external guidance and is used by management to measure operating liquidly.

⁽⁵⁾ EBITDA & adjusted EBITDA â€“ For the company earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is calculated by starting with net income (loss) attributable to Unisys Corporation common shareholders and adding or subtracting the following items: net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, non-cash share-based expense, other (income) expense (net), Interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes both pension expense and cost reduction charges. Unisys recorded pretax pension expense during the second quarters of 2016 and 2015. During the second quarters 2016 and 2015, Unisys recorded a pretax charge in connection with cost reduction actions and other expense. In order to provide investors with additional understanding of the company's operating results, these charges are excluded from the adjusted EBITDA calculation. The company has also provided external guidance to investors and analysts that it thinks will aid any interested party in understanding and measuring the company's ongoing operations and profitability.
