LINCOLNSHIRE, ILLINOIS, July 27, 2011 – ACCO Brands Corporation (NYSE: ABD), a world leader in branded office products, today reported its second quarter results for the period ended June 30, 2011.
“We are very pleased with the strength of our results,” said Robert J. Keller, chairman and chief executive officer. “Despite an uncertain economic environment, we grew our top and bottom lines, returned our European operations to profitability and significantly improved our cash position. We are confident that we are well-positioned to meet our financial targets for the year.”
Second Quarter Results
Net sales increased 8% to $330.2 million, compared to $305.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Foreign currency favorably impacted sales by 6% and pricing added 2%. Volume was flat. Second quarter income from continuing operations was $6.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to income of $4.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Using a normalized effective tax rate of 30% in both periods, adjusted income from continuing operations was $8.6 million, compared to $4.3 million in the prior-year period, and $0.15 per share compared to $0.08 per share in the prior-year period, an increase of 88%.
Reported second quarter operating income increased to $30.6 million, from $25.0 million in the prior-year quarter. EBITDA increased to $42.2 million, from EBITDA of $36.6 million in the prior year and included the benefit from foreign exchange translation of $3.7 million. The company reduced its debt by $11 million in the quarter and ended the quarter with $92.7 million of cash and no borrowings on its revolving credit facility.
During the quarter, the company sold its GBC - Fordigraph Pty Ltd subsidiary, based in Sydney, Australia, to The Neopost Group, based in Paris, France. The sale of GBC - Fordigraph had no impact on ACCO Australia or the company’s Pelikan Artline joint-venture, which are ACCO Brands’ two larger businesses servicing resale channels in Australia.
1
GBC - Fordigraph had revenues of approximately $46 million, operating income from continuing operations of approximately $5 million and earnings of approximately $4 million (or $0.07 per share), for the year ended December 31, 2010. The company has accounted for GBC - Fordigraph as a discontinued operation.
Business Segment Highlights
ACCO Brands Americas
ACCO Brands Americas second quarter net sales increased 3% to $175.7 million, from $169.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Volume increased modestly. Foreign currency translation and pricing each impacted sales favorably by nearly 2%.
ACCO Brands Americas second quarter operating income was $14.5 million, compared to $14.4 million in the prior-year quarter. Operating margin decreased to 8.3% from 8.5% as higher commodity costs and incentive compensation were only partly offset by pricing and manufacturing and distribution efficiencies.
ACCO Brands International
ACCO Brands International net sales increased 14% to $105.8 million, compared to $93.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Foreign currency translation impacted sales favorably by 15% and pricing added 3%. Volume decreased 4% principally due to reduced demand in the U.K., partly offset by gains in shredder placements.
ACCO Brands International reported operating income of $9.0 million, compared to $4.9 million in the prior-year quarter. Operating margin increased to 8.5% from 5.3% primarily due to freight and distribution efficiencies and lower selling, general and administrative expenses in Europe.
Computer Products Group
Computer Products net sales increased 16% to $48.7 million, compared to $42.1 million in the prior-year quarter. Volume increased 8% mainly due to new products. Foreign currency translation impacted sales favorably by 6% and pricing added 2%.
Computer Products operating income was $13.1 million, compared to $10.7 million in the prior-year quarter. Operating margin expanded to 26.9% from 25.4% due to the higher sales volume.
Six Month Results
Net sales increased 4% to $628.6 million, compared to $605.7 million in the prior-year period. Foreign currency translation contributed 4% to sales growth and pricing added 2%. Volume declined 2%. The company reported a loss from continuing operations of $2.7 million, or $(0.05) per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to a loss of $0.9 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Using a normalized effective tax rate of 30% in both periods, adjusted income from continuing operations was $5.4 million, or $0.09 per share, including $4.3 million of severance and related costs associated with the rationalization of the company’s European operations, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.09 per share in the prior-year period.
2
The company reported operating income of $43.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $45.5 million in the prior-year period. EBITDA decreased 3% to $66.3 million, from $68.5 million in the prior year, and included the benefit from foreign exchange translation of $5.3 million.
Business Outlook
The company reiterates its full-year 2011 sales guidance calling for growth of 2-4% from continuing operations. The company revised its full-year earnings–per-share guidance for continuing operations to be at the high end of its previously stated 20-30% growth range, on a normalized 30% tax rate basis. (Earnings guidance for continuing operations adjusts for the impact of the GBC – Fordigraph divestiture completed in the second quarter.) The company expects free cash flow (after interest, taxes and capital expenditures) of $100-110 million, including gross proceeds from the sale of the GBC – Fordigraph business.
Webcast
At 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time today, ACCO Brands Corporation will host a conference call to discuss the company’s results. The call will be broadcast live via webcast. The webcast can be accessed through the Investor Relations section of www.accobrands.com. The webcast will be in listen-only mode and will be available for replay for one month following the event.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
“Adjusted” results exclude all unusual tax items. Adjusted supplemental EBITDA from continuing operations excludes other non-operating items, including other income/expense and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted results and supplemental EBITDA from continuing operations are non-GAAP measures. There could be limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as compared to the use of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Management uses the adjusted measures to determine the returns generated by its operating segments and to evaluate and identify cost-reduction initiatives. Management believes these measures provide investors with helpful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the company from year to year. These measures may be inconsistent with measures presented by other companies.

ACCO Brands’ ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Because actual results may differ from those predicted by such forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on them when deciding to buy, sell or hold the company’s securities.

| (A) | The Company has incurred significant operating losses in several jurisdictions in prior periods. In accordance with GAAP, tax valuation allowances have been recorded on certain of the Company’s deferred tax assets. As a result, the operating results in these locations have recorded no tax benefit or expense, which results in a high effective tax rate for the current period. Assuming all the locations become profitable in the future and valuation allowances were reversed, the Company’s ongoing effective tax rate would approximate 30%. This estimated long-term rate will be subject to variations from the mix of earnings in the Company’s operating jurisdictions. |
