NORTH CANTON, Ohio — Diebold, Incorporated (NYSE: DBD) today reported first quarter 2011 income from continuing operations attributable to Diebold, net of tax, of $2.5 million, or $0.04 per share, down from $24.9 million and $.37 per share, respectively, from the first quarter 2010.

Business Review
Management commentary
“As expected, we got off to a slow start in the first quarter. The results we’re reporting today slightly exceeded our internal expectations for the first quarter, despite heavy losses in Europe and a higher tax rate. We previously communicated we expect an unusually strong second half of 2011, and our outlook remains the same,” said Thomas W. Swidarski, Diebold president and chief executive officer. “I am encouraged by significant strengthening of orders in the U.S. regional bank space during the quarter, as the North America financial self-service market continues to rebound.”
Swidarski continued, “Also, given the second quarter timing of major, pending orders in China and Brazil — as well as the Brazil voting revenue slated for the third and fourth quarters — we remain optimistic in our position for the remainder of the year and are maintaining our earnings guidance of $2.00 to $2.20*. As we look forward in 2011, we expect to create shareholder value by growing our advantage in services, continuing to restructure our operations in EMEA, taking advantage of key growth markets around the world and leveraging opportunities in the security business.”

First Quarter Orders (constant currency)
Total global product and services orders decreased 1% compared with the prior-year period. North America orders benefitted from particularly strong financial self-service growth, led by growth in excess of 30 percent in the U.S. regional bank space. Orders in EMEA increased 44%, compared with a relatively weak prior-year period. Latin America orders were down during the quarter, primarily as a result of timing of major bank orders from Brazil.

The company’s management believes excluding restructuring charges, and non-routine expenses and income from operating margins is an indication of the company’s baseline performance. The exclusion of these items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the company’s core business operations and it is on this basis that the company’s management internally assesses the company’s performance.
Revenue
Total revenue for the first quarter 2011 was down 0.8%, including a net positive currency impact of approximately 2%. Growth in the Americas was more than offset by a revenue decline in Asia Pacific, where seasonality continues to shift to more of a back-end loaded pattern. Revenue also declined in EMEA.
Gross Margin
Total gross margin for the first quarter 2011 was 24.3%, a decrease of 1.2 percentage points from the first quarter of 2010. Total gross margin in the first quarter of 2011 included restructuring charges of $6.2 million associated with the previously announced restructuring plan for EMEA. There were $0.1 million in restructuring charges in the first quarter of 2010.

Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first quarter 2011 were 22.9%, an increase of 3.9 percentage points from the first quarter of 2010. Operating expenses in the first quarter 2011 included $5.6 million of restructuring charges associated with the previously announced restructuring plan for EMEA. Operating expenses for the quarter also included non-routine expenses of $5.8 million related to the previously disclosed U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) investigation.
Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2010 included $1.1 million in restructuring charges related to the U.S. workforce reduction. Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2010 also included non-routine income of $4.1 million related to expense recovery and reimbursement from the company’s D&O insurance carriers.
Operating Profit
Operating margin was 1.4% of net sales in the first quarter 2011, a decrease of 5.1 percentage points from the first quarter 2010. Non-GAAP operating profit* in the first quarter 2011 was $26.4 million, or 4.3% of sales, and $37.6 million, or 6.1% of sales, in the first quarter 2010 excluding restructuring charges and non-routine expenses from both periods.
Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations
First quarter income taxes on continuing operations were $5.9 million. This resulted in a first quarter income tax rate of 58%, or 40% on a non-GAAP basis*, which is due mainly to operating losses in certain EMEA jurisdictions for which no tax benefit is recognized. Because these operating losses are relatively large when compared with the company’s total income from continuing operations before taxes, the impact on the effective tax rate for the quarter is significant. Foreign income tax assessments and other discrete items also resulted in an increase to the first quarter effective tax rate. Full-year, non-GAAP tax rate is still expected to be approximately 28%*.
Income from Continuing Operations, net of tax (attributable to Diebold)
Income from continuing operations, net of tax, was $2.5 million, or 0.4% of revenue in the first quarter 2011, a decrease of 89.9 percentage points from the first quarter 2010. Included in the first quarter 2011 net of tax results are restructuring charges of $9.2 million and $3.7 million in net non-routine expenses. Income from continuing operations net of tax in the first quarter 2010 included non-routine income of $3.2 million in expense recovery and reimbursement from the company’s D&O insurance carriers, and restructuring of $0.9 million.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity
The company’s net debt* was $85.9 million at March 31, 2011, an increase in net debt of $121.0 million from the net investment* position at December 31, 2010 and a reduction of $92.1 million from March 31, 2010. The company’s net debt to capital ratio was 8% at March 31, 2011, -4% at December 31, 2010 and 15% at March 31, 2010.
Net cash used in operating activities was $90.2 million at March 31, 2011, an increase of $33.9 million from March 31, 2010. Free cash use* in the first quarter 2011 was $101.1 million, an increase of $33.7 million from the first quarter 2010. The company generates the majority of its cash flow during the fourth quarter.

PAGE 4/ DIEBOLD REPORTS 2011 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
In the first quarter 2011, Diebold repurchased 523,000 of its common shares for about $18 million under its repurchase plan. This leaves 3,477,000 on the current Board authorization at March 31, 2011. Dependent upon market and other conditions, Diebold plans to opportunistically repurchase its common shares as a means of returning cash to its shareholders.
Restructuring and non-routine expenses and income
The company incurred net restructuring charges, net of tax, of $9.2 million, or $0.14 per share in the first quarter of 2011. The majority of these charges were associated with the previously announced restructuring plan in EMEA. In the first quarter 2010, restructuring charges net of tax were $0.9 million, or $0.01 per share. These charges were largely related to an accrual for severance costs associated with the reorganization of the company’s North America and corporate functions. For the full year, the company increased its anticipated restructuring charges to be in the range of $.23 to $.28 per share.
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act review
As previously disclosed, Diebold continues to conduct a global internal review of its compliance with the FCPA. The company also previously disclosed it had received a subpoena for documents from the SEC and a voluntary request for documents from the DOJ in connection with the SEC’s non-public investigation of the FCPA matter. Diebold continues to cooperate with these agencies in their review.
The company excludes costs related to the FCPA review from its non-GAAP operating results as it provides a better overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance and future prospects. Diebold cannot predict the length, scope or results of this review or the government investigations, or the impact, if any, on its results of operations.

Notes for Non-GAAP Measures
  1.   Reconciliation of diluted GAAP EPS to non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations measures:
                 
    Q1 2011   Q1 2010
Total EPS from continuing operations (GAAP measure)
  $ 0.04     $ 0.37  
Restructuring charges
    0.14       0.01  
Non-routine expenses
    0.05        
Non-routine income
          (0.04 )
Total EPS (non-GAAP measure)
  $ 0.23     $ 0.34  
      The company’s management believes excluding restructuring charges and non-routine expenses and income is useful to investors because it provides an overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance and future prospects. Management believes non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations is an indication of the company’s base-line performance. Exclusion of these items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the company’s core business operations, and it is on this basis that management internally assesses the company’s performance.
  2.   Free cash flow (use) is calculated as follows:
                 
    Q1 2011   Q1 2010
Net cash provided / (used) by operating activities (GAAP measure)
  $ (90,151 )   $ (56,223 )
Capital expenditures
    (10,902 )     (11,103 )
Free cash flow / (use) (non-GAAP measure)
  $ (101,053 )   $ (67,326 )
      The company’s management believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it is a meaningful indicator of cash generated from operating activities that is available for the execution of its business strategy, including service of debt principal, dividends, share repurchase and acquisitions. Free cash flow is utilized to fund our dividends, as well as mandatory debt payments and other investment opportunities. Free cash flow is not an indicator of residual cash available for discretionary spending, because it does not take into account mandatory debt service or other non-discretionary spending requirements that are deducted in the calculation of free cash flow.
  3.   Net investment/(debt) is calculated as follows:
                         
    3/31/2011   12/31/2010   3/31/2010
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (GAAP measure)
  $ 552,206     $ 601,781     $ 427,570  
Debt instruments
    (638,090 )     (566,632 )     (605,591 )
Net investment/(debt) (non-GAAP measure)
  $ (85,884 )   $ 35,149     $ (178,021 )
      The company’s management believes that given the significant cash, cash equivalents and other investments on its balance sheet that net cash against outstanding debt is a meaningful net debt calculation.

      The company’s management believes excluding restructuring charges, and non-routine expenses and income from operating margins is an indication of the company’s baseline performance. The exclusion of these items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the company’s core business operations and it is on this basis that the company’s management internally assesses the company’s performance.
