Delphi Reports Improved Second Quarter Results
TROY, Mich., July 17 Delphi Corp. today reported a 29 percent year-over-year increase in earnings for the second quarter of 2002 as the company benefited from a 5.4 percent improvement in revenue combined with operating cost reductions resulting from ongoing restructuring and cost containment initiatives.
"Non-GM revenue grew 13 percent versus the same period last year, which contributed to solid results for the quarter," said Delphi Chairman, CEO and President J.T. Battenberg III. "In 2001 and early 2002, we announced restructuring plans to re-size the company to benefit from an anticipated rebound. Our continued restructuring, portfolio transformation and customer diversification initiatives are on track to yield improved results."
- Second Quarter 2002 financial highlights:
- Revenue of $7.3 billion (up 5.4 percent from $6.9 billion in Q2 2001)
- Non-GM revenue at 34 percent of total revenue for the quarter at $2.5
billion (up 13 percent from $2.2 billion in Q2 2001)
- Net income of $220 million (up 29 percent from $171 million(1) in Q2 2001)
- Net income margin of 3 percent (compared to 2.5 percent(1) in Q2 2001)
- Earnings per share of $0.39, at the high end of our June 25, 2002 guidance and in-line with Thomson First Call consensus estimates
- Continued strong operating cash flow of $398 million (2), up 28 percent from Q2 2001
"We experienced strong growth in our non-GM revenue during the quarter as several previously announced customer programs began ramping up to volume production levels," said Delphi Chief Financial Officer Alan S. Dawes. "Our leading edge Recognition(TM) occupant sensing system, new rear seat entertainment systems, diesel common rail injection and new aftermarket sales channels all made an impact in the quarter."
Dawes also reported that operating cash flow remained strong during the quarter enabling the company to make a $400 million contribution to its U.S. hourly employee pension plan and fund employee separation programs associated with its restructuring plans.
Restructuring Update
During Q2 2002 Delphi further reduced its global workforce by 1,250 as part of its previously announced restructuring.
"These and other restructuring actions helped Delphi to offset increased healthcare and pension costs and improve our gross margin by 0.3 percent," said Dawes.
To-date, Delphi has completed approximately 75 percent of the 2002 plan, which called for the reduction of 6,100 global positions by the end of March 2003. During the quarter, Delphi utilized $58 million cash to fund separation programs and other restructuring actions related to the Q1 2002 restructuring charge of $150 million after-tax.
"When completed, the combined effects of Delphi's 2001 and 2002 restructuring plans are expected to reduce global employment by 17,540," said Dawes.
Portfolio Actions
On July 16, 2002, Delphi announced its intent to wind down its global generator business. Details of the wind down plan are being developed and discussed with customers, suppliers and employees.
"Immediate actions are being taken to reduce administrative and support costs associated with this product line. Capital and engineering expenses will be allocated only to maintain existing customer programs," said Dawes. "During 2001 and in Q1 2002 we established reserves to resolve the status of this product line and believe these reserves are adequate to cover costs associated with the wind down."
3Q 2002 Outlook
Dawes said third quarter 2002 revenue and earnings are expected to be comparable to Q3 2001. "Revenue is expected to range between $6.2 billion and $6.3 billion in the third quarter and net income is expected to be between $30 and $45 million. Cash flow is forecast between $50 and $150 million," he said.
"This third quarter outlook reflects continued strong year-over-year non- GM sales growth offset by the impact of changes in mix and packaging at our largest customer. The market remains intensely competitive and vehicle affordability pressure is resulting in lower Delphi content per vehicle," said Dawes. "These factors present a greater challenge at the reduced volume level traditionally experienced in the third quarter."
Additional Information
As is customary, Delphi today will file its 10Q for the second quarter 2002. Delphi Chairman J.T. Battenberg III and CFO Alan Dawes will also sign and submit attestations to the accuracy of Delphi's 2001 annual report on Form 10-K, its proxy statement and its 2002 quarterly financial reports in accordance with new Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.
