such
words
as
“believe,”
“expect,”
“intend,”
“anticipate,”
“contemplate,”
“estimate,”
“plan,”

or similar expressions are forward-looking statements. They are subject
to a number of factors that could cause the company’s actual results to
differ materially from what is indicated here. These factors include general
economic conditions, the level of customer demand particularly for capital projects
in the markets we serve, changes in supplier sales strategies or
financial viability, risks associated with the sale of nonconforming products and services, political, economic or
currency risks related to foreign operations, inventory obsolescence, copper price
fluctuations, customer viability, risks associated with accounts receivable,
the impact of regulation and regulatory, investigative and legal proceedings and legal compliance risks
and risks associated with integration of acquired companies. These
uncertainties may cause our actual results to be materially different than
those expressed in any forward looking statements. We do not undertake to update any forward looking statements.
Please see the company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings for more
information. Non-GAAP Statement
This report includes certain financial measures computed using non-Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (“non-GAAP”) components as
defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Specifically, net sales, comparisons to the prior
corresponding period, both worldwide and in relevant geographic segments, are
discussed in this report both on a Generally Accepted Accounting Principle
(“GAAP”) basis and excluding acquisitions and foreign exchange and copper price effects (non-
GAAP). The Company believes that by reporting organic growth which excludes
the impact of acquisitions, foreign exchange and copper prices, both
management and investors are provided with meaningful supplemental information to understand and analyze
the Company’s underlying sales trends and other aspects of its financial
performance. The Company also presents certain profitability
and
cash
flow
information
in
this
report
excluding
special
items
which
have
been
identified
in
the
Company’s
earnings
releases as the Company believes that by reporting such information, both
management and investors are provided with meaningful supplemental
information to understand and analyze the Company’s underlying trends and other aspects of its financial
performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures provide insight into selected financial information
and should be evaluated in the context in which they are presented.
These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in
isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in
compliance with GAAP, and non-financial measures as reported by the
Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. The non-GAAP financial
measures should be considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements, including the related notes, and Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included the Company’s Annual Reports
on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as filed with the
SEC. Management does not use these non-GAAP financial measures for
any purpose other than the reasons stated above. |

Strong Growth Across All Geographies
In addition to continued introduction of new products and technologies, selectively
expanding its geographic presence is a focus for Anixter
–
Electrical Wire & Cable and OEM Supply offer strong opportunities to drive growth
by expanding into countries where Anixter’s offering is primarily limited
to cabling and security –
Expanding
geographic
penetration
beyond

cities
creates
additional
opportunities
Anixter often tailors its offerings to local specifications, or to include locally
manufactured products, which helps increase product acceptance as it expands
its geographic footprint –

Long Term Growth Strategy
Anixter has driven consistent organic growth through a focus on:
–
Constant refresh and expansion of product offerings
–
Increased geographic penetration in countries with existing operations
–
Expansion of the Company’s geographic footprint, particularly in high growth
economies The Company has also leveraged its expertise in supply chain service
offerings to capture growth opportunities created by trends in outsourcing
and globalization Anixter utilizes a consistent approach in pursuing
acquisition activity –
Acquisitions are targeted that either complement capabilities in
their
existing
end
markets,
or
help
further
geographic
expansion
in
targeted regions
The
Company
has
traditionally
pursued
“tuck-in”
acquisitions
which
it
can fund with liquidity on hand
While Anixter continually evaluates opportunities, management is
selective in pursuing transactions

Capital Needs Supported by Cash Flow and Supplemented With Very Conservative Use of
Debt ($ in millions)
Anixter generates significant Cash Flow from Operations (CFO) -
covers all debt service and business investment (cap ex + acquisitions)
needs
–
Over last 5 years, 70%+ of CFO used for this purpose
In evaluating best use of additional capital, Anixter has selected to
periodically return a portion to shareholders
–
Use of special dividend / share repurchases allows Anixter to
make distributions opportunistically
Net leverage and liquidity subsequent to a distribution never moved

operating income increased by 5%. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company
recorded a charge for interest and penalties associated with prior year tax
liabilities of $1.7 million ($1.1 million net of tax, or $0.03 per diluted share)
and a tax benefit of $9.7 million ($0.28 per diluted share) primarily related to
the reversal of deferred income tax valuation allowances in certain foreign
jurisdictions. After adjusting for these items, net income from continuing
operations in the first quarter of 2012 would have been $47.0 million, or $1.37 per diluted
share, which compares to adjusted net income from continuing operations of $44.2
million, or $1.22 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter (an increase
