“I am pleased to share that we delivered Core net sales of $1.73 billion and Core adjusted EBITDA of $230 million for the first quarter of 2022. We are encouraged by the strong top-line performance delivered by Core CommScope, growing net sales 10% from the prior year. While margins remained under pressure during the quarter, our CommScope team remains focused on the pricing initiatives that are underway to recover inflation, and we expect to see margin improvement for the Core portfolio in the second half of the year. Our growth is a testament to the solid demand we continue to see in many of our end markets and our dedication to advancing CommScope NEXT to strengthen our business,” said Chuck Treadway, President and Chief Executive Officer.

 

Treadway added, “Through the transformational initiatives of CommScope NEXT, we are committed to unlocking additional capacity for connectivity and cabling to fuel organic growth. In addition, we are driving growth through our investments in innovative products such as our NOVUX product line of fiber connectivity, our next- generation XGS-PON suite, MOSAIC, ONECELL®, and DOCSIS® 4.0. As we continue to execute our strategy, we are enabling greater efficiency through our general management structure and new segment alignment to drive value for shareholders.”

 

“We are encouraged by the progress we have made on CommScope NEXT and are re-affirming our commitment to full year 2022 Core adjusted EBITDA between $1.15 - $1.25 billion,” said Kyle Lorentzen, Chief Financial Officer. “We are excited to see our recent actions and pending initiatives deliver improved performance through the remainder of the year. CommScope is well positioned to deliver on our top-line momentum and deliver sustained success over the near and long term.”

 

CommScope NEXT

In 2021, CommScope announced a transformation initiative called CommScope NEXT designed to drive shareholder value through three pillars: profitable growth, operational efficiency and portfolio optimization. As a step toward optimizing its portfolio through CommScope NEXT, as of January 1, 2022, the Company reorganized its internal management and reporting structure to align its portfolio of products and solutions more closely with the markets it serves and bring better performance clarity with its competitive peer set. As a result, the Company is reporting financial performance for the 2022 year based on the following operating segments: (i) Connectivity and Cable Solutions, (ii) Outdoor Wireless Networks, (iii) Networking, Intelligent Cellular and Security Solutions, (iv) Access Network Solutions and (v) Home Networks. All prior period amounts have been recast to reflect these operating segment changes.

Also as a step in the CommScope NEXT transformation plan, in 2021, the Company announced a plan to separate the Home Networks business via a spin-off transaction. Due to the impact of the uncertain supply chain environment on the Home Networks business, the Company delayed its separation plan, but it continues to analyze the financial results of its "Core" business separately from Home Networks. As such, in this comparison discussion, reference is made to certain supplementary Core financial measures, which reflect the results of the Connectivity and Cable Solutions, Outdoor Wireless Networks, Networking, Intelligent Cellular and Security Solutions and Access Network Solutions segments, in the aggregate. Core financial measures exclude the results of the Home Networks segment. These metrics represent the business segments as reported by CommScope. However, the ultimate definition of the Home Networks business that CommScope expects to separate may vary, and future results may differ materially.
 

 


COVID-19 Update

The negative impacts of COVID-19 on CommScope's financial performance have receded as the Company is seeing a recovery in demand for its products over the past year, but this has created negative indirect consequences such as inflation, shortages in materials and components and increased logistic costs. Prices for certain commodities that it uses have experienced significant volatility as a result of changes in the levels of global demand, supply disruptions and other factors. As a result, the Company has seen a significant increase in costs that has negatively impacted its results of operations. CommScope is also experiencing limited supply of memory devices, capacitors and silicon chips, which has increased its costs and has impacted its ability to deliver on a timely basis due to extended lead times. The Company is trying to mitigate the increasing component and logistics costs by implementing higher prices on its products and services. CommScope is also mitigating certain shortages by purchasing components in advance and maintaining higher levels of inventory or finding alternate vendors for some components. The Company believes the global supply chain challenges and their adverse impact on its business and financial results will persist, at least through the remainder of 2022, and may extend into periods thereafter.

First Quarter Results and Comparison

Net sales in the first quarter of 2022 increased 7.6% year-over-year to $2.23 billion. Core net sales increased 10.3% year-over-year primarily due to higher net sales in the Connectivity and Cable Solutions and Outdoor Wireless Networks segments.

Net loss of $(139.9) million, or $(0.75) per share, in the first quarter of 2022, increased 43.3% compared to the prior year period's net loss of $(97.6) million, or $(0.55) per share. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $64.4 million, or $0.26 per share, versus $88.3 million, or $0.36 per share, in the first quarter of 2021.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA decreased 12.6% to $253.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period last year. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales decreased to 11.4% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 14.0% in the same prior year period. Core segment adjusted EBITDA decreased 14.9% to $230.0 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same prior year period. Core segment adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales decreased to 13.3% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 17.2% in the same prior year period.

Reconciliations of the reported GAAP results to non-GAAP adjusted results are included below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

CommScope management believes that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. CommScope management further believes that these financial measures are useful in assessing CommScope’s operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. CommScope management also uses certain of these financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring CommScope’s performance relative to that of its competitors. CommScope management believes these financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate CommScope’s performance and that of its competitors. However, CommScope’s use of certain non-GAAP terms may vary from that of others in its industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity. A reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP measures discussed herein to their most comparable GAAP measures is below.

 


Core Measures

CommScope believes that presenting Core financial measures enhances the investor’s understanding of the financial performance of the Company’s core businesses. Core financial measures are the aggregate of the Connectivity and Cable Solutions, Access Network Solutions, Networking, Intelligent Cellular and Security Solutions and Outdoor Wireless Networks segments. They do not include the results of the Home Networks segment. The Core segments and the Home Networks segment represent the business segments as currently managed and reported by CommScope. Future results and the composition of any business divested in the future may vary and differ materially from the presentation of the Core financial measures.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release or any other oral or written statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These statements may discuss goals, intentions or expectations as to future plans, trends, events, results of operations or financial condition or otherwise, in each case, based on current beliefs and expectations of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by their use of such terms and phrases as “intend,” “goal,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “projections,” “plans,” “potential,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “designed to,” “foreseeable future,” “believe,” “think,” “scheduled,” “outlook,” “target,” “guidance” and similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain such terms. This list of indicative terms and phrases is not intended to be all-inclusive.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, including, without limitation, risks related to the successful execution of CommScope NEXT; changes in cost and availability of key raw materials, components and commodities and the potential effect on customer pricing and timing of delivery of products to customers; risks associated with our dependence on a limited number of key suppliers for certain raw materials and components; potential difficulties in realigning global manufacturing capacity and capabilities among our global manufacturing facilities or those of our contract manufacturers that may affect our ability to meet customer demands for products; possible future restructuring actions; the risk that our manufacturing operations, including our contract manufacturers that we rely on, encounter capacity, production, quality, financial or other difficulties causing difficulty in meeting customer demands; substantial indebtedness and restrictive debt covenants; our ability to incur additional indebtedness; our ability to generate cash to service our indebtedness; the potential separation of the Home Networks business or any other potential separation, divestiture or discontinuance of a business or product line, including uncertainty regarding the timing of the separation, achieving the expected benefits and the potential disruption to the business; our ability to integrate and fully realize anticipated benefits from prior or future divestitures, acquisitions or equity investments; our dependence on customers’ capital spending on data and communication systems; concentration of sales among a limited number of customers and channel partners; risks associated with our sales through channel partners; changes to the regulatory environment in which we and our customers operate; changes in technology; industry competition and the ability to retain customers through product innovation, introduction, and marketing; possible future impairment charges for fixed or intangible assets, including goodwill; our ability to attract and retain qualified key employees; labor unrest; product quality or performance issues, including those associated with our suppliers or contract manufacturers, and associated warranty claims; our ability to maintain effective management information technology systems and to successfully implement major systems initiatives; cyber-security incidents, including data security breaches, ransomware or computer viruses; the use of open standards; the long-term impact of climate change; significant international operations exposing us to economic risks like variability in foreign exchange rates and inflation as well as political and other risks, including the impact of wars, regional conflicts and terrorism; the potential impact of higher than normal inflation; our ability to comply with governmental anti-corruption laws and regulations and export and import controls and sanctions worldwide; our ability to compete in international markets due to export and import controls to which we may be subject; changes in the laws

 


and policies in the United States affecting trade, including the risk and uncertainty related to tariffs or potential trade wars and potential changes to laws and policies, that may impact our products; cost of protecting or defending intellectual property; costs and challenges of compliance with domestic and foreign environmental laws; the impact of litigation and similar regulatory proceedings that we are involved in or may become involved in, including the costs of such litigation; the scope, duration and impact of disease outbreaks and pandemics, such as COVID-19, on our business including employees, sites, operations, customers, supply chain and the global economy; income tax rate variability and ability to recover amounts recorded as deferred tax assets; and other factors beyond our control. These and other factors are discussed in greater detail in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and may be updated from time to time in our annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although the information contained in this press release represents our best judgment as of the date of this release based on information currently available and reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that the expectations will be attained or that any deviation will not be material. Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We are not undertaking any duty or obligation to update this information to reflect developments or information obtained after the date of this press release, except as otherwise may be required by law.

(2) The tax rates applied to adjustments reflect the tax expense or benefit based on the tax jurisdiction of the entity generating the adjustment. There are certain items for which we expect little or no tax effect.

 

(3) For all periods presented, GAAP EPS was calculated using net loss attributable to common stockholders in the numerator, which includes the impact of the Series A convertible preferred stock dividend.

 

(4) The Company’s definition of non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS is non-GAAP adjusted net income, excluding the Series A convertible preferred stock dividend, divided by weighted average shares outstanding assuming the if-converted method, which reflects the conversion of the Series A convertible preferred stock.
