HICKORY, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CommScope Holding Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, reported sales of $1.31 billion and net income of $62 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Sales rose 51 percent year over year driven by incremental sales attributable to the BNS acquisition. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter 2016 rose to $145 million, or $0.74 per diluted share. A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to non-GAAP results is attached.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, CommScope reported sales of $867 million and net income of $46 million, or $0.24 per diluted share. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $95 million, or $0.49 per diluted share.

"We delivered strong sequential performance in both of our segments, with bottom line results that exceeded our expectations," said President and Chief Executive Officer Eddie Edwards. "We are proud of our record gross margins, strong operating margins and robust cash flow that enables us to announce the voluntary redemption of our remaining PIK Notes. This will bring our total 2016 debt reduction to over $500 million.

"We are pleased with the current progress of our BNS integration efforts and are increasing our BNS cost synergy target by $25 million. We now expect to achieve at least $100 million in synergies in calendar year 2016 and at least $200 million in annual synergies by calendar year 2018. We continue to focus on accelerating and identifying new synergies while effectively and efficiently integrating the BNS business."

Second Quarter 2016 Overview

Second quarter 2016 sales grew 51 percent year over year to $1.31 billion, which was consistent with guidance. On a pro forma basis for the BNS acquisition, revenue declined 2 percent year over year driven primarily by slow spending in markets outside of North America. Foreign exchange rate changes negatively affected revenue by 1 percent year over year.

GAAP operating income in the second quarter 2016 was $184 million, an increase of 68 percent year over year. Adjusted operating income in the quarter, which excludes amortization of purchased intangibles, integration and transaction costs, restructuring costs and other special items, increased 65 percent year over year to $291 million. This increase was due primarily to the BNS acquisition, favorable product and geographic mix and benefits from cost reduction initiatives.

GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2016 increased 36 percent year over year to $62 million. Excluding amortization of purchased intangibles and other special items, second quarter adjusted net income increased 53 percent year over year to $145 million. Adjusted earnings were $0.74 per diluted share, up 51 percent year over year.

Second Quarter 2016 Segment Overview

Second quarter Connectivity Solutions segment sales increased 121 percent to $778 million, driven by incremental revenue from the BNS acquisition. On a pro forma basis for the BNS acquisition, Connectivity Solutions segment sales were essentially flat year over year. Foreign exchange rate changes negatively affected revenue by approximately 1 percent from the year-ago period. In the quarter, Connectivity Solutions adjusted operating income increased 134 percent year over year to $169 million, or 22 percent of its sales. The nearly 110 basis point year-over-year increase in adjusted operating income margin was due primarily to favorable product and geographic mix and benefits from cost reduction initiatives.

Mobility Solutions segment sales of $529 million increased 3 percent year over year due to incremental sales from the BNS acquisition. On a pro forma basis for the BNS acquisition, Mobility Solutions segment sales decreased 5 percent year over year. Higher spending by certain North American wireless operators was more than offset by a decline in other major geographic regions and product rationalization. Foreign exchange rate changes had a negative impact of approximately 1 percent on Mobility Solutions segment sales compared to the year-ago period. Mobility Solutions adjusted operating income was $122 million, or 23 percent of its sales. The 18 percent increase in adjusted operating income compared to the prior year was driven by favorable product and geographic mix and benefits from cost reduction initiatives.

Planned PIK Notes Redemption

Today, CommScope notified holders of the 6.625%/7.375% Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2020 that it will redeem the remaining principal amount of $236.6 million on August 29, 2016. The Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price of 103.313% of the principal plus unpaid interest.

BNS Cost Synergy Update

CommScope has increased its BNS cost synergy target by $25 million. The company now expects to achieve at least $100 million in synergies in calendar year 2016 and at least $200 million in annual synergies by calendar year 2018. CommScope continues to make progress on its cost synergy plan and is exceeding original plan estimates in most functional areas.

"This increase in synergy targets is a testament to the hard work and determination of our team and to how well they are executing the BNS integration plan," commented Edwards.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

CommScope management believes that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful information to investors in understanding operating results and may enhance investors' ability to analyze financial and business trends. Non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures and should be considered together with the GAAP financial measures. As calculated, our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In addition, CommScope management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to compare period to period more easily by excluding items that could have a disproportionately negative or positive impact on results in any particular period.
