Business Review

Management commentary

“I am very pleased with our performance during the quarter, as we delivered meaningful top-line growth and significant improvement in earnings. We remained focused on expanding our clear leadership in service and integrated services to drive increased, recurring revenue across our global markets,” said Thomas W. Swidarski, Diebold president and chief executive officer. “Clearly, the Brazil elections business had a large, positive impact on our results, and we are proud of the work we’ve accomplished in that area. However, it’s important to note that our core business in Brazil, as well as some other key geographies, performed extremely well in terms of both growth and profitability during the quarter.”

Swidarski continued, “Also encouraging is our double-digit increase in global orders. Each geographic region delivered order growth during the period, which affirms our prior assessment that our industry is beginning to recover. As a result, we have tightened our earnings guidance and are confident in our outlook for the remainder of the year. There is positive momentum in many of the crucial markets we serve, and we continue to provide our customers with unmatched service and technological capabilities — building profitable growth through effective execution in our operations.”

Third Quarter Orders (constant currency)

Total product and services orders for financial self-service and security were up 13% compared with the prior-year period. Financial self-service orders increased 12%, driven by increased replacement activity in North America and a strong comparison to the prior-year period in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Security orders increased 13% overall, led by year-over-year increases in non-financial markets. Orders in Latin America and Brazil increased 9%, driven by gains in financial self-service. In North America, total orders increased 9% compared with the same period in the prior year. Orders in EMEA increased 53%, benefiting from a comparison to a weak period in the prior year. Asia Pacific orders increased 5% compared with the prior year.

The company’s management believes excluding restructuring charges, non-routine expenses and income and impairment charges from operating margins is an indication of the company’s baseline performance. The exclusion of these items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the company’s core business operations and it is on this basis that the company’s management internally assesses the company’s performance.

PAGE 3/ DIEBOLD REPORTS 2010 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue

Total revenue for the third quarter 2010 was up 16%, including a net positive currency impact of 1%.

Gross Margin

Total gross margin for the third quarter 2010 was 25.9%, an increase of 2.3 percentage points from the third quarter of 2009. Total gross margin included restructuring charges of $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 and $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2009. The increase in gross margin was due primarily to more profitable mix of product revenue and continued efficiency gains in our service operations.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter 2010 was 18.9%, in line with the third quarter of 2009. Operating expenses were higher largely due to increased selling expenses on higher revenue, increased investment in research and development, higher legal and compliance costs and an impairment charge. Operating expenses in the third quarter 2010 included $3.0 million of impairment charges within the North America continuing operations, which fully impaired a previous cost-basis investment in a security company; and restructuring charges of $0.1 million. Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2009 included $0.5 million in restructuring charges.

Operating Profit

Operating profit margin was 7.0% of net sales in the third quarter 2010, an increase of 2.2 percentage points from the third quarter 2009. Both periods included restructuring charges in operating profit of $0.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, and the third quarter 2010 also included the impairment charge of $3.0 million. Excluding these items from both periods, non-GAAP operating profit margin* was 7.5% in the third quarter 2010 and 5.1% in the third quarter 2009. The increase in non-GAAP operating profit was largely due to the Brazil elections business and favorable product mix.

Income from Continuing Operations, net of tax (attributable to Diebold)

Income from continuing operations, net of tax, was $44.1 million, or 5.9% of revenue in the third quarter 2010, an increase of 80.0%, or 2.1 percentage points from the third quarter 2009. Included in the third quarter 2010 results are restructuring charges net of tax of $0.4 million and $2.3 million in impairment charges related to the prior investment in a security company. Income from continuing operations in the third quarter 2009 included restructuring charges, net of tax, of $1.4 million.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity

The company’s net debt* was $174.4 million at September 30, 2010, an increase of $109.1 million from December 31, 2009 and a reduction of $36.2 million from September 30, 2009. The company’s net debt to capital ratio was 14% at September 30, 2010, 6% at December 31, 2009, and 17% at September 30, 2009.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $67.1 million in the third quarter 2010, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $41.2 million in third quarter 2009. Free cash flow* in the third quarter 2010 was $56.0 million, an increase of $21.1 million from the third quarter 2009.

PAGE 4/ DIEBOLD REPORTS 2010 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

In the third quarter 2010, Diebold repurchased 126,000 of its common shares for approximately $4 million under its repurchase plan. The company has approximately 2.2 million shares remaining under its existing board authorization. For the first nine months of 2010, Diebold repurchased 773,449 shares of its common shares for approximately $23 million under its repurchase plan.

Restructuring charges, impairment charges, and discontinued operations

The company incurred net restructuring charges of $.01 per share in the third quarter of 2010. The majority of these charges were related to severance costs from the previously announced reorganization of the company’s North America and corporate functions, and the continued strategic realignment of the company’s global manufacturing. The company also incurred a pre-tax impairment charge in the third quarter 2010 of $3.0 million, or $.03 per share, related to a previous cost-basis investment in a security company. In the third quarter 2009, the company sold its U.S.-based elections systems business which resulted in a loss on the sale of $31.4 million which is included within “Loss on sale of discontinued operations — net of tax”. In the third quarter 2010, the company finalized and filed its consolidated U.S. federal tax return and recorded an additional tax benefit of $2.1 million included within “Gain/ (loss) from discontinued operations.”

Out-of-period accounting adjustment in China related to multiple-element arrangements

As previously disclosed, the company has been working to remediate a control weakness in the area of application of accounting policies specific to multiple-element arrangements — which involves contracts with bundled product and service components. As part of the remediation process, the company, with assistance from external consultants, has been reviewing Diebold’s revenue recognition practices related to multiple-element arrangements. As part of this review, the company determined that an out-of-period adjustment, within its operations in China was necessary to adjust for revenue previously recognized that was not in accordance with the company’s accounting policies related to multiple-element arrangements. The out-of-period adjustment represents a decrease in revenue of approximately $18.7 million and a decrease to operating profit of approximately $5.3 million. This adjustment is not material to the company’s 2010 projected results, and therefore this out-of-period adjustment was recorded in the third quarter 2010. The company’s remediation review is ongoing, and it anticipates this control weakness will be remediated by the end of 2010. Reconciliation for these adjustments is as follows:


Q3 2010	Total Revenue			Total Gross Profit			% of Sales			OP			% of Sales			EPS
Results excl. out-of-period adj.	$	767,308		$	199,164			26.0	%	$	57,649			7.5	%	$	0.71
Out-of-period adj.		(18,688	)		($5,270	)					(5,270	)					($0.05	)

Update on Foreign Corrupt Practices Act review

As previously disclosed, the company identified certain transactions and payments by its subsidiary in Russia that potentially implicate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), particularly the books and records provisions of the FCPA. While the company’s assessment remains that the transactions and payments in question do not materially impact or alter the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, the company continues to collect information and is conducting an internal review of its global FCPA compliance. The company voluntarily self-reported its initial findings to the SEC and the DOJ. As a result, the company received a subpoena for documents from the SEC and a voluntary request for documents from the DOJ in connection with the SEC’s non-public investigation of the matter. Diebold is cooperating with these agencies in their review. The company cannot predict the length, scope or results of its internal review or the government investigations, or the impact, if any, on its results of operations.

Full-year 2010 outlook

The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. These statements do not include the potential impact of any future mergers, acquisitions, disposals or other business combinations. Expectations for the full year 2010, which include the out-of-period accounting adjustment, are as follows:

•

Notes for Non-GAAP Measures

Reconciliation of diluted GAAP EPS to non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations measures:


	Q3 2010		Q3 2009		YTD 9/30/10			YTD 9/30/09
Total EPS from continuing operations (GAAP measure)	$	0.66	$	0.37	$	1.49		$	0.98
Restructuring charges		0.01		0.02		0.03			0.11
Non-routine expenses		0.00		0.00		0.00			0.39
Non-routine income		0.00		0.00		(0.05	)		(0.12	)
Impairment		0.03		0.00		0.08			0.00
Total EPS (non-GAAP measure)	$	0.70	$	0.39	$	1.56		$	1.36

		The sums of the quarterly figures do not equal year-to-date figures due to rounding or differences in the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods.

		The company’s management believes excluding restructuring charges, non-routine expenses and income and impairment charges is useful to investors because it provides an overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance and future prospects. Management believes non-GAAP EPS from continuing operations is an indication of the company’s base-line performance. Exclusion of these items permits evaluation and comparison of results for the company’s core business operations, and it is on this basis that management internally assesses the company’s performance.

2.		Free cash flow is calculated as follows:


	Q3 2010			Q3 2009			YTD 9/30/10			YTD 9/30/09
Net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP measure)	$	67,120		$	41,177		$	51,073		$	121,003
Capital expenditures		(11,075	)		(6,277	)		(37,991	)		(28,414	)
Free cash flow (non-GAAP measure)	$	56,045		$	34,900		$	13,082		$	92,589

		The company’s management believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it is a meaningful indicator of cash generated from operating activities that is available for the execution of its business strategy, including service of debt principal, dividends, share repurchase and acquisitions. Free cash flow is utilized to fund our dividends, as well as mandatory debt payments and other investment opportunities. Free cash flow is not an indicator of residual cash available for discretionary spending, because it does not take into account mandatory debt service or other non-discretionary spending requirements that are deducted in the calculation of free cash flow.

3.		Net (debt) is calculated as follows:


	9/30/2010			12/31/2009			9/30/2009
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (GAAP measure)	$	435,277		$	505,868		$	385,022
Debt instruments		(609,667	)		(571,204	)		(595,654	)
Net (debt) (non-GAAP measure)	$	(174,390	)	$	(65,336	)	$	(210,632	)

The company’s management believes that given the net debt, the significant cash, cash equivalents and other investments on its balance sheet that to net cash against outstanding debt is a meaningful debt calculation.
