 FIRST QUARTER 2013 RESULTS
REPORTED BY AMPHENOL CORPORATION

Wallingford, Connecticut. April 18, 2013.  Amphenol Corporation (NYSE-APH) reported today first quarter 2013 diluted earnings per share, before one-time items, of $.87 compared to $.77 per share for the comparable 2012 period.  On an as-reported basis diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2013 was $.94 and included an income tax benefit of $11 million or $.07 per share resulting from the delay, by the U. S. government, in the reinstatement of certain federal income tax provisions for the year 2012 relating primarily to research and development credits and certain U.S. taxes on foreign income.  Such tax provisions were reinstated on January 2, 2013 with retroactive effect to 2012.  Under U.S. GAAP, the related benefit to the Company of $11 million or $.07 per share relating to the 2012 tax year was recorded as a one-time benefit in the first quarter of 2013 at the date of reinstatement. Sales for the first quarter 2013 were $1.080 billion compared to $982 million for the 2012 period.  Currency translation had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $2 million in the first quarter 2013 compared to the 2012 period.

 

Amphenol President and Chief Executive Officer, R. Adam Norwitt, stated “We are pleased to report strong first quarter results with sales up 10% and EPS (excluding one-time items) up 13% over the comparable 2012 quarter.  The sales growth was driven by increases in nearly all of our served markets led by mobile devices, commercial aerospace, broadband communications and industrial, with contributions from both organic growth and our acquisition program.  This strong growth is further confirmation of the significant benefits of the Company’s technology leadership and diversification. We are especially encouraged to have achieved strong orders of $1.120 billion in the first quarter, representing a book-to-bill of 1.04 to 1.  In addition, it is extremely rewarding that the Company’s unique entrepreneurial culture continues to drive an unwavering focus on profitability, resulting in an operating margin improvement of 30 basis points over the prior year quarter to 19.2%.  These results are a direct result of our management team’s ability to react quickly in a dynamic environment, especially given the continuing high levels of uncertainty in most of the world’s economies.  I am very proud of our organization as we continue to execute well.”

 

“Our ongoing strategy of market and geographic diversification combined with our strong commitment to developing enabling technologies for our customers in all markets, both through organic product development and through our acquisition program, continues to expand the Company’s growth opportunities.  The Company continues to deploy its financial strength in a variety of ways to increase shareholder value including, in this quarter, the purchase of 1.2 million shares of the Company’s stock pursuant to our stock repurchase plan.”

 



 

“Considering the still uncertain global economic environment and assuming current currency exchange rates, we expect second quarter 2013 revenues in the range of $1.115 billion to $1.140 billion and diluted EPS (excluding one-time items) in the range of $.92 to $.95.  For the year 2013, we now expect to achieve revenues and diluted EPS (excluding one-time items) in the range of $4.580 billion to $4.655 billion and $3.76 to $3.85, respectively, an increase of 7% to 8% over 2012 revenues and 8% to 11% over 2012 diluted EPS (excluding one-time items). This compares to prior full year 2013 guidance for revenues and diluted EPS in the range of $4.555 billion to $4.655 billion and $3.72 to $3.84, respectively.  Despite the many uncertainties in the global economy, we believe we can perform well in the dynamic electronics marketplace due to our leading technology, increasing positions with our customers in diverse markets, worldwide presence, lean cost structure, and agile, experienced and entrepreneurial management team.”

 

“The electronics revolution continues to accelerate, with new applications and higher performance requirements driving increased demand for our leading interconnect technologies in all of our end markets.  This creates a significant, long-term growth opportunity for Amphenol.  Importantly, our ongoing actions to enhance our competitive advantages and build sustained financial strength have created a solid base for future performance.  I am confident in the ability of our outstanding management team to dynamically adjust to the constantly changing market environment, to continue to generate strong profitability and to further capitalize on the many opportunities to expand our market position.”
