“As expected, our second quarter results improved from the first quarter. Our performance in our Core businesses was mixed with strength in Connectivity and Cable Solutions (CCS) and continued weakness in Access Network Solutions (ANS) and NICS. Our focus on profitability through CommScope NEXT during the downturn is now paying dividends as our Core EBITDA margin in the second quarter was 19.1% up from 10.2% in the first quarter and 15.9% in the second quarter of 2023. We are pleased with our CCS performance as datacenter and GenAI was a strong driver of growth. We are well positioned to take advantage of what we believe to be a multi-year growth cycle in this business. CCS adjusted EBITDA of $173 million improved versus prior year and the first quarter of 2024 by 107% and 80%, respectively. Despite an improved second quarter, visibility remains limited as customers continue to deal with higher-than-normal inventory levels and upgrade cycles are delayed. As previously reported, CommScope entered into a definitive agreement to sell its OWN segment as well as the DAS business unit of the NICS segment to Amphenol Corporation (NYSE: APH). Upon closing, CommScope will receive approximately $2.1 billion in cash,” said Chuck Treadway, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Despite improved performance sequentially, Core CommScope net sales declined 17% from the prior year to $1.05 billion and delivered adjusted EBITDA of $201 million. Although visibility remains limited, our full year Core adjusted EBITDA guideposts are $700 to $800 million. We continue to evaluate capital structure alternatives and expect to meet with our existing lenders in the third quarter to address the upcoming debt maturities. We finished the quarter with significant liquidity of $880 million,” said Kyle Lorentzen, Chief Financial Officer.

Second Quarter Results and Comparisons

Net sales in the second quarter of 2024 decreased 12.7% year-over-year to $1.39 billion. Core net sales decreased 17.0% year-over-year due to lower net sales in the ANS and NICS (excluding DAS) segments, partially offset by stronger sales in the CCS segment. Net sales decreased across all regions, except the Canada region, in the second quarter of 2024.

Income from continuing operations of $74.8 million, or $0.27 per share, in the second quarter of 2024, improved compared to the prior year period's loss from continuing operations of $(63.1) million, or $(0.37) per share. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $86.9 million, or $0.34 per share, versus $44.2 million, or $0.17 per share, in the second quarter of 2023.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased 19.5% to $302.1 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales increased to 21.8% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 15.9% in the same prior year period. Core non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA decreased 0.3% to $201.1 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same prior year period. Core non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales increased to 19.1% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 15.9% in the same prior year period.

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

(1) Core financial measures exclude the results and performance of the OWN segment and DAS business unit in the NICS segment.

(2) The prior year period includes general corporate costs that were previously allocated to the Home segment and are now classified as continuing operations, since the costs were not directly attributable to the discontinued operations of the Home segment.

 

CCS - Net sales of $728.4 million increased 4.5% from the prior year period primarily driven by an increase in the Enterprise business.
NICS (excluding DAS) - Net sales of $132.4 million decreased 44.1% from the prior year period primarily driven by declines in Ruckus and Intelligent Cellular Networks.
ANS - Net sales of $192.8 million decreased 42.5% from the prior year period primarily driven by declines in Access Technologies and Broadband Network Solutions.
OWN - Net sales of $256.3 million increased 12.0% from the prior year period primarily driven by an increase in Base Station Antennas and HELIAX product sales.

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 CCS, NICS (excluding DAS), and ANS segments. They do not include the results of the OWN segment and DAS business unit. The Core results and the OWN and DAS results represent the business results 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 includes certain statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. 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, our dependence on customers’ capital spending on data, communication and entertainment equipment, which could be negatively impacted by a regional or global economic downturn, among other factors; the potential impact of higher than normal inflation; 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; 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 related to our ability to implement price increases on our products and services; risks associated with our dependence on a limited number of key suppliers for certain raw materials and components; risks related to the successful execution of CommScope NEXT and other cost saving initiatives; 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 on which we rely, encounter capacity, production, quality, financial or other difficulties causing difficulty in meeting customer demands; our substantial

These and other factors are discussed in greater detail in our 2023 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 to the extent required by law.
