HARMAN 2QFY2014 Supporting Slide Deck

STAMFORD, Conn.--()--Harman International Industries, Incorporated, the leading global infotainment and audio group (NYSE:HAR), today announced results for the second quarter ended December 31, 2013.

Net sales for the second quarter were $1.328 billion, an increase of 26 percent compared to the same period last year as all three of the Company’s divisions reported increased sales. The strong sales increase was a result of several initiatives in each division in addition to improved economic conditions. Infotainment net sales increased due to the expansion of recent production launches and higher take rates. Lifestyle growth was primarily driven by new product launches, the impact of increased marketing investments in the home and multimedia business, and increased take rates in the car audio business. The Professional division reported strong growth as a result of the expansion of the Company’s product portfolio into lighting as well as increased demand for the Company’s audio products at live entertainment events and in fixed-installation venues.

On a GAAP basis, second quarter operating income was $102 million, compared to $68 million in the same period last year, and earnings per diluted share were $1.03 for the quarter compared to $0.68. Excluding restructuring and non-recurring charges, second quarter non-GAAP operating income was $108 million, compared to $57 million in the same period last year. On the same non-GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share were $1.09 for the quarter compared to $0.59 in the same period last year.

Dinesh C. Paliwal, the Company’s Chairman, President and CEO, said, “We are extremely pleased that for the second consecutive quarter all three of our divisions reported double-digit top-line growth, which also resulted in double-digit profitability improvement. We are confident that the momentum that we built in the first half of the fiscal year is sustainable and therefore we have increased our fiscal year guidance for revenue and EPS.”

Paliwal added, “We also continue to position HARMAN for long term growth with the introduction of proprietary technology solutions that enable safety, cyber security, and rapid app development for in-car systems. These critical and high demand features can only be provided through embedded infotainment systems. They are essential for leading automakers as evidenced by $2.7 billion in new automotive awards in the first half of the fiscal year. Our technologies were further validated with prestigious CES and Red Star innovation and product design awards, and a third technical GRAMMY® Award which we won this year for our Lexicon brand.”

Summary of Operations – Gross Margin and SG&A

SG&A and Other expense as a percentage of net sales on a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was 20.6 percent, in line with the prior year.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 were $691 million, an increase of 28 percent compared to the prior year, or 24 percent excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The increase in sales is due to higher automotive production volumes, the expansion of the Company’s recent production launches across car lines, and higher take rates.

On a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin increased 317 basis points to 24.1 percent compared to the prior year primarily due to the impact of improved leverage on fixed production costs, benefits from foot-print migration initiatives, and an increased mix of scalable infotainment systems. SG&A spending decreased 20 basis points to 15.3 percent of net sales primarily due to improved operating leverage on higher sales.

Infotainment Division Highlights

During the quarter, HARMAN secured several new business awards, expanded its recent platform launches across car lines, and launched its next-generation scalable infotainment platform at the Consumer Electronics Show (“CES”) to address safety, cyber security, and application development.

HARMAN secured new awards totaling $725 million from existing and new automotive customers including VW Group, Chang’an, and Geely. The Company won infotainment system orders from Yamaha to equip motorcycles in North America and secured new business from Suzuki, making HARMAN the first non-Asian supplier to deliver an infotainment solution specifically designed for the Japanese market. HARMAN was also awarded infotainment services business from automakers BMW and Jaguar/Land Rover. These services contracts are for installed HARMAN infotainment systems and are designed to “future-proof” the infotainment solution.

HARMAN’s award-winning Uconnect system developed for Fiat/Chrysler continued its rollout on vehicles including the Jeep Cherokee, Fiat 500L, and Alfa Romeo models.

The Company is also continuing to drive its undisputed leadership in infotainment and technology innovation. At CES, HARMAN announced its next-generation scalable infotainment platform based on innovative system architecture that offers rapid development of connected car apps and advanced safety features while protecting the integrity of the system against cyber security threats. The new platform offers an HTML-5 based application environment which paves the way to an app ecosystem in the world of in-car infotainment. In addition, the new platform enhances security with hypervisor-based domain separation securing critical vehicle functions from errant or malicious software. This solution provides a foundation to support the future of autonomous driving.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 were $430 million, an increase of 16 percent compared to the prior year or 14 percent excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. Revenues increased double digits in both the Company’s home and multimedia product lines and the car audio business. The growth in home and multimedia was primarily due to new product introductions and the impact of the Company’s marketing initiatives. The growth in car audio was primarily due to higher automotive production volumes and increased take rates.

On a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin increased by 384 basis points to 31.6 percent compared to the prior year primarily due to the impact of improved leverage of fixed production costs and reduced costs from foot-print migration initiatives. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales increased by 149 basis points to 18.8 percent primarily due to higher marketing costs.

Lifestyle Division Highlights

The Lifestyle Division continued to gain momentum with its award-winning home and multimedia and car audio solutions. HARMAN launched car audio systems in several vehicles, including a Lexicon system in the Hyundai Genesis and a JBL system in the Toyota Highlander. Furthermore, HARMAN secured several new car audio awards targeted for the fast-growing small car segment. Hyundai, Chang’an, Geely, and SAIC all selected HARMAN scalable audio solutions.

HARMAN won an order from Daimler for its innovative, hands-free MEMS microphones across car lines. As cars become ever more connected, voice control becomes increasingly important as a way for drivers to interact with in-vehicle systems. The MEMS microphones deliver the advantage of a small form factor and superior audio sensitivity.

HARMAN received 15 Red Star and eight CES design and innovation awards for home and multimedia products, bringing the total number of awards for the past two product cycles to a record high 62.

In November, the Company opened its first North American retail location with a flagship store on Madison Avenue in New York City. The HARMAN store is a customer experience center that transforms how consumers interact with audio products.

At CES, the Company also introduced a proprietary software solution, called Signal Doctor™ by HARMAN, which automatically analyzes and improves the audio quality of all types of compressed, digitized and streaming music sources. The technology leverages HARMAN’s expertise in music recording, signal processing, and psycho-acoustics to restore the full sound that is forfeited in the compression process. Signal Doctor™ by HARMAN will be launched by multiple automakers and in a range of home and multimedia products later this year.

Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 were $207 million, an increase of 45 percent compared to the prior year or 46 percent excluding foreign currency translation. The increase in net sales is primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s product portfolio into lighting as a result of the acquisition of Martin Professional and stronger demand for the Company’s audio products.

On a non-GAAP basis in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin decreased 136 basis points to 37.7 percent compared to the prior year primarily due to lower gross margins on lighting products. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales decreased 92 basis points to 24.6 percent due to improved operating leverage on higher sales.

Professional Division Highlights

The Professional Division continued to experience robust demand for its audio and lighting products for use at a wide range of live entertainment events and fixed-venue installations worldwide.

In the second quarter, the Company’s audio and lighting solutions were installed at the following venues: BMW World Customer Center in Germany, King Abdullah Sports Center in Saudi Arabia, Salvador International Airport in Brazil, and the St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres baseball parks.

HARMAN’s Professional products were featured in numerous high profile events including the GRAMMY Awards, Grand Central Station’s 100th Anniversary Celebration, and the American and Country Music Awards.

HARMAN was also awarded its third GRAMMY Award for its technical contributions to the recording field. The technical GRAMMY recognized Lexicon’s contributions to the art and science of music recording and reproduction through innovation and excellence in product design. HARMAN is the only audio systems company to earn multiple Technical GRAMMY Awards. The Company’s AKG microphone and headphone brand and JBL brand were recognized in 2010 and 2005, respectively.

HARMAN has provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures in the table above to provide the users of the financial statements with a better understanding of the Company’s performance. Because changes in currency exchange rates affect its reported financial results, the Company shows the rates of change both including and excluding the effect of these changes in exchange rates. HARMAN encourages readers of its financial statements to evaluate its financial performance excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. These non-GAAP measures are not measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This measurement should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information contained in HARMAN’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
