Rich, Patroller, For the record, here are details of the report: Flextronics International Announces Record Results
51% Increase in Net Income
SAN JOSE, Calif., July 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Flextronics International Ltd. (Nasdaq: FLEX - news), a world-class electronics manufacturing services (EMS) provider offering global multinational companies complex manufacturing services throughout the world, today announced its results for the fiscal quarter ended June 25, 1999, as follows:
Quarter Ending June 25, 1999 June 26, 1998 Growth Revenue $529.8 $376.1 41% Operating Income 23.5 17.8 32% Net Income 17.6 11.7 51% Diluted EPS .34 .27 26% Adjusted EPS(a) .36 .29 24% (millions except per share amounts) (a)EPS excluding tax-effected Goodwill and Intangible Amortization
For the first quarter of fiscal year 2000, Flextronics had an increase in revenue of 41%, a net income increase of 51%, and an EPS improvement of 26%, compared to the period a year ago.
''We are pleased with our continued strong results,'' said Michael Marks, Chairman and CEO of Flextronics. ''Revenue growth was excellent and margins were somewhat higher than we expected.'' Mr. Marks explained that this was the result of revenue mix, and that a number of new program ramps, and their associated costs, were moved from the June to the September quarter.
Gross margin in the quarter was 8.7%, up from 8.2% in the previous quarter, and approximately the same as the 8.8% in the same quarter of the previous year. S, G & A was 4.0%, up just slightly from the previous quarter. Net income remained at 3.3% of revenues.
Over half of Flextronics revenues are generated from sales to OEMs in the networking and telecommunications end-markets and this has been enhanced with the recent acquisition of Ericsson's GSM infrastructure factory in Visby, Sweden and the acquisition of Kyrel in Finland. Both acquisitions occurred after the close of the June quarter.
Today, Flextronics has a broad geographic reach and Flextronic's industrial park strategy allows it to generate significant supply chain efficiencies both in terms of cost and time that it can pass along to its customers.
