“Strong cash flow and Intelisys growth are the hallmarks of our first quarter,” said Mike Baur, Chairman and CEO, ScanSource, Inc. “Our business fundamentals remain strong in a softer revenue environment.”

Quarterly Results

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 totaled $876.3 million, down 7.2% year-over-year. Specialty Technology Solutions net sales for the first quarter decreased 11.6% year-over-year to $509.6 million. Soft demand in barcode, mobility and point of sale was partially offset by growth in networking and security. Modern Communications & Cloud net sales for the first quarter decreased 0.2% year-over-year to $366.7 million due to lower sales volumes in communications hardware, partially offset by growth in Cisco products. Intelisys net billings increased to approximately $2.51 billion annualized, and Intelisys net sales for the first quarter increased 8.8%.

Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 decreased 6.1% year-over-year to $106.5 million. Gross profit margin for the first quarter was 12.15% versus 12.02% in the prior-year quarter.

For the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, operating income was $24.1 million compared to $34.9 million in the prior-year quarter. First quarter fiscal year 2024 non-GAAP operating income decreased to $28.5 million for a 3.25% non-GAAP operating income margin, down from $39.1 million for the prior-year quarter.

On a GAAP basis, net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 totaled $15.4 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to net income of $24.0 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the prior-year quarter. First quarter fiscal year 2024 non-GAAP net income totaled $18.7 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, down from $27.2 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, for the prior-year quarter. Interest expense increased to $5.6 million, up from $3.4 million for the prior-year quarter, reflecting higher interest rates and higher borrowings.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 decreased 22.9% to $34.9 million, or 3.98% of net sales, compared to $45.3 million, or 4.80% of net sales, for the prior-year quarter.

ScanSource generated $93.5 million of operating cash flow and $91.2 million of free cash flow in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains “forward-looking” statements, including the Company’s FY24 outlook, which involve risks and uncertainties. Any number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated or forecasted results, including, but not limited to, the following factors, which are neither presented in order of importance nor weighted: macroeconomic conditions, including potential prolonged economic weakness, inflation, the failure to manage and implement the Company’s organic growth strategy, credit risks involving the Company’s larger customers and suppliers, changes in interest and exchange rates and regulatory regimes impacting the Company’s international operations, economic weakness and inflation, risk to our business from a cyberattack, a failure of our IT systems, failure to hire and retain quality employees, loss of the Company’s major customers, relationships with our key suppliers and customers or a termination or a modification of the terms under which it operates with these key suppliers, changes in the Company’s operating strategy, and other factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023. Except as may be required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are summarized below. Non-GAAP financial measures are used to understand and evaluate performance, including comparisons from period to period. Non-GAAP results exclude amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, change in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition costs, restructuring costs and other non-GAAP adjustments.

Net sales on a constant currency basis, excluding acquisitions (organic growth): The Company discloses the percentage change in net sales excluding the translation impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates between reporting periods and excluding the net sales from acquisitions prior to the first full year from the acquisition date. This measure enhances the comparability between periods to help analyze underlying trends on an organic basis.

Additional Non-GAAP Metrics: To evaluate current period performance on a more consistent basis with prior periods, the Company discloses non-GAAP SG&A expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income margin, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP diluted EPS). Non-GAAP results exclude amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition and divestiture costs, impairment charges, restructuring costs, and other non-GAAP adjustments. These year-over-year metrics include the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Non-GAAP metrics are useful in assessing and understanding the Company’s operating performance, especially when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods.

Adjusted earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”): Adjusted EBITDA starts with net income and adds back interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, changes in fair value of contingent considerations, and other non-GAAP adjustments, including acquisition and divestiture costs, impairment charges, restructuring costs, cyberattack restoration costs, tax recovery, and non-cash share-based compensation expense. Since Adjusted EBITDA excludes some non-cash costs of investing in our business and people, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA shows the profitability from our business operations more clearly. The presentation for Adjusted EBITDA for all periods presented has been recast to reflect this change to enhance comparability between periods. The Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted return on invested capital (“Adjusted ROIC”): Adjusted ROIC assists management in comparing the Company’s performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operating performance. We believe the calculation of Adjusted ROIC provides useful information to investors and is an additional relevant comparison of our performance. Adjusted ROIC is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA over invested capital. Invested capital is defined as average equity plus average daily funded interest-bearing debt for the period. Management believes the calculation of Adjusted ROIC provides useful information to investors and is an additional relevant comparison of the Company’s performance during the year.

Free cash flow: We present free cash flow as we believe this measure provides more information regarding our liquidity and capital resources. Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures.

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and the non-GAAP financial measures that the Company reports may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be considered in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, measurements of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial information to GAAP is set forth in the Supplementary Information (Unaudited) below.
