HARMAN 4Q and Year End FY2014 Supporting Slide Deck

STAMFORD, Conn.--()--Harman International Industries, Incorporated (NYSE:HAR), the premier audio, visual, and infotainment group, today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year ended June 30, 2014.

Net sales for the fourth quarter were $1.444 billion, an increase of 22 percent compared to the same period last year, as all three of the Company’s divisions reported increased sales. Infotainment net sales increased due to the expansion of recent production launches, higher automotive production, and higher take rates. Lifestyle growth was driven by strong demand for the Company’s home and multimedia products launched earlier in the year and an increase in automotive production and take rates in the car audio business. HARMAN’s Professional Division net sales increased as a result of strong demand for the Company’s lighting and audio products.

Excluding restructuring and non-recurring charges, fourth quarter operating income was $121 million, compared to $87 million in the same period last year. On the same non-GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share were $1.25 for the quarter compared to $0.91 in the same period last year. On a GAAP basis, fourth quarter operating income was $57 million compared to $16 million in the same period last year, and earnings per diluted share were $0.62 for the quarter compared to $0.08 in the prior year.

Net sales for the full year were $5.348 billion, an increase of 24 percent compared to the prior year, as all three of the Company’s divisions reported increased sales. Excluding restructuring and non-recurring charges, fiscal year 2014 operating income was $430 million compared to $290 million in the prior year. On the same non-GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share were $4.41 for the year compared to $3.07 in the prior year. On a GAAP basis, fiscal year 2014 operating income was $330 million compared to $201 million in prior year, and earnings per diluted share were $3.36 compared to $2.04 in the prior year.

“We are extremely pleased that, for the fourth consecutive quarter, all three of our divisions achieved double-digit top-line growth, facilitating a 38 percent improvement in earnings per share,” said Dinesh C. Paliwal, the Company’s Chairman, President and CEO. “In our automotive businesses, we are capitalizing on robust demand for an embedded connected car experience and a more favorable production environment. In our other businesses, we continue to gain traction with our award winning products and have recently expanded our portfolio into exciting new markets including enterprise automation and control. We are executing our strategy and, as a result, we have issued strong guidance for fiscal year 2015, raised our outlook for fiscal year 2016 and reported a Company record backlog.”

Paliwal continued, “While achieving record performance in fiscal year 2014, we are taking additional restructuring actions as we continue to relentlessly focus on cost management and align our operations with growth markets. We firmly believe that innovation combined with cost leadership continues to position us for sustainable long-term success.”

One should not place undue reliance on these statements. The Company bases these statements on particular assumptions that it has made in light of its industry experience, as well as its perception of historical trends, current market conditions, current economic data, expected future developments and other factors that the Company believes are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested in the forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: (1) the Company’s ability to maintain profitability in its infotainment division if there are delays in its product launches which may give rise to significant penalties and increased engineering expense; (2) the loss of one or more significant customers, or the loss of a significant platform with an automotive customer; (3) fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly with respect to the value of the U.S. Dollar and the Euro; (4) the Company’s ability to successfully implement its global footprint initiative, including achieving cost reductions and other benefits in connection with the restructuring of its manufacturing, engineering, procurement and administrative organizations; (5) fluctuations in the price and supply of raw materials including, without limitation, petroleum, copper, steel, aluminum, synthetic resins, rare metals and rare-earth minerals, or shortages of materials, parts and components; (6) the inability of the Company’s suppliers to deliver products at the scheduled rate and disruptions arising in connection therewith;(7) the Company’s ability to maintain a competitive technological advantage through innovation and leading product designs; (8) the Company’s failure to maintain the value of its brands and implementing a sufficient brand protection program; and (9) other risks detailed in the Harman International Industries, Incorporated Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and other filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement except as required by law.

Net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 were $773 million, an increase of 26 percent compared to the same period in the prior year, or 22 percent excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The increase in sales was due to the expansion of the Company’s recent production launches across car lines, higher automotive production, and higher take rates.

On a non-GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin increased 77 basis points to 22.3 percent compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the impact of improved leverage on fixed production costs, benefits from footprint migration restructuring initiatives, and an increase in software content. SG&A spending decreased 128 basis points to 13.1 percent of net sales primarily due to improved operating leverage on higher sales.

Infotainment Division Highlights

Net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 were $424 million, an increase of 22 percent compared to the same period in the prior year, or 21 percent excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The growth in the home and multimedia business was primarily due to accelerated sales of new products launched earlier in the year. The growth in the car audio business was primarily driven by an increase in automotive production and higher take rates due to the increasing importance of audio for a better connected car experience.

On a non-GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin increased by 116 basis points to 29.7 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. This is primarily due to the impact of improved leverage on fixed production costs and benefits from footprint migration restructuring initiatives. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales increased by 223 basis points to 18.7 percent primarily due to increased investment in marketing.

Lifestyle Division Highlights

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, HARMAN secured new branded audio business awards from Alfa Romeo, Hyundai, Kia and Toyota. HARMAN also continued to expand its partnership with Ford in the area of hands-free microphones adding several new car lines including the next-generation F-150. As cars become more connected, voice control becomes more important as a way for drivers to safely interact with embedded in-vehicle systems. HARMAN’s microphone solutions deliver the advantage of small form factor and superior audio sensitivity. HARMAN also secured a similar award for MEMS microphones earlier in the year from Daimler. These new awards now bring the Company’s industry-leading car audio backlog to $4.3 billion.

HARMAN also launched car audio systems in the Hyundai Sonata, Lexus NX, Dodge Challenger, Kia Sedona, Subaru Outback, and Toyota Camry during the quarter.

The Company’s home and multimedia product line also launched several innovative new headphones and portable wireless products. In addition, HARMAN acquired yurbuds, the U.S. market leader in sports headphones. The acquisition will strengthen HARMAN’s position in the fast growing sports headphones and wearables markets.

Net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 were $248 million, an increase of 13 percent compared to the same period in the prior year or 12 percent excluding foreign currency translation. The increase in net sales is primarily due to strong demand for the Company’s lighting and audio products.

On a non-GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, gross margin increased 62 basis points to 38.7 percent compared to the same period in the prior year due to stronger profitability of the Company’s lighting products. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales decreased 72 basis points to 22.3 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 live entertainment events and fixed venue installations worldwide.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, HARMAN’s audio and lighting system solutions were selected for installation at San Diego’s Petco Park, home of the Padres, and the University of Texas - El Paso Sun Bowl Stadium. The Company also upgraded the installed audio system at the Grand Mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia as well as numerous entertainment, hospitality and transportation facilities.

HARMAN’s products powered a wide range of high-profile televised award shows, special events, music festivals and tours. These included the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, the Eurovision Song Contest, and Rock In Rio Lisbon. In Brazil, HARMAN audio systems were installed in eight of the 12 stadiums at the FIFA World Cup, and were featured on the field to support the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

The division launched 44 new products during the fourth quarter. The Soundcraft Vi3000 digital mixing console was awarded Best of Show by the National Association of Broadcasters and the JBL VTX V20 loudspeaker system was honored with Rental & Staging’s Best New Product Award. In addition, the Martin Viper Quadray was honored as Live Design’s Lighting Product of the Year.

HARMAN has provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures in the table above to provide the users of the consolidated 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.
