EX-99 2 ex99firstq.txt News Release Investor Contact: Niels Christensen, 215-986-6651 Niels.Christensen@unisys.com Media Contact: Jim Kerr, 215-986-5795 Jim.Kerr@unisys.com UNISYS ANNOUNCES FIRST-QUARTER 2011 FINANCIAL RESULTS * CONTINUED STRENGTHENING OF BALANCE SHEET; $211 MILLION DEBT REDUCTION IN 1Q; ADDITIONAL $179 MILLION DEBT REDUCTION IN APRIL * PRE-TAX LOSS OF $7.8 MILLION INCLUDES PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED $31.8 MILLION CHARGE RELATED TO 1Q DEBT REDUCTION * 1Q RESULTS IMPACTED BY $50 MILLION REVENUE DECLINE IN U.S. FEDERAL BUSINESS BLUE BELL, Pa., April 25, 2011 - Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today reported a first-quarter 2011 net loss of $39.4 million, or a loss of 95 cents per diluted share, which included a previously announced charge of $31.8 million related to debt reduction. In the first quarter of 2010, the company reported a net loss of $11.6 million, or a loss of 27 cents per diluted share. Revenue in the first quarter declined 7 percent to $911 million compared with $977 million in the year-ago quarter. The decline was primarily attributable to a $50 million reduction in revenue from the U.S. Federal government resulting from the ending of the Transportation Security Administration contract as well as constrained agency spending related to the U.S. government budget uncertainty. Foreign currency fluctuations had a two percentage-point positive impact on revenue in the quarter. "Our first-quarter results were negatively impacted by greater than anticipated softness in our U.S. Federal business associated with the budget impasse in Washington," said Unisys Chairman and CEO Ed Coleman. "Outside of our Federal business, IT outsourcing revenue grew 9 percent, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth. Sales of our ClearPath systems again grew following full-year growth in 2010. In addition, we significantly strengthened our balance sheet over the last 60 days by reducing our debt by $390 million and cutting our annual interest expense in half. "Going forward, we are confident in our strategy and are focused on achieving our three-year financial goals," Coleman said. "We believe that as a result of the work we've done in recent years to refocus our business model and reduce our costs, Unisys today has the skills, portfolio, and cost structure needed to compete successfully and help clients address, and take advantage of, the disruptive technology trends that are reshaping the IT market." COMPANY HIGHLIGHTS The company's profit margins in the first quarter of 2011 were impacted by the lower revenue in the U.S. Federal business and a $9 million year-over-year increase in pension expense. First-quarter 2011 gross profit margin was 22.8 percent, down from 24.1 percent a year ago. Operating expenses (selling, general and administrative expenses plus research and development) declined 6 percent from the year-ago quarter. First-quarter 2011 operating profit was $41.9 million, or 4.6 percent of revenue, compared to $58.5 million, or 6.0 percent of revenue, in the first-quarter 2010. The company reported a first-quarter 2011 pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $7.8 million compared with a pre-tax loss of $4.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The current quarter included a $31.8 million charge related to debt reduction, and the prior-year quarter included $35.4 million of foreign exchange losses. Due to the company's tax valuation allowances, neither of these charges had a significant tax benefit associated with them. The company reported a first-quarter 2011 net loss from continuing operations of $36.0 million compared with a net loss of $16.1 million in the prior-year quarter. The provision for taxes in the first quarter of 2011 increased by $17 million compared with the year-ago quarter, reflecting a different geographic mix of business. BUSINESS SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS First-quarter 2011 services revenue declined 6 percent from the prior-year quarter. Services revenue outside of the U.S. Federal business was essentially flat with the first quarter of 2010. Reflecting the impact of lower revenue in the U.S. Federal business, the company reported a first-quarter 2011 services gross profit margin of 18.0 percent compared with 18.4 percent a year ago while services operating profit margin declined to 4.0 percent compared with 4.7 percent a year ago. Services backlog at March 31, 2011 of $5.8 billion increased 2 percent from the first quarter of 2010 and was flat with services backlog at December 31, 2010. First-quarter services orders showed double-digit declines in the quarter primarily reflecting significant order declines in the U.S. Federal business. First-quarter 2011 technology revenue declined 13 percent from the prior-year quarter, as growth in ClearPath revenue was more than offset by declines in other technology revenue. The company reported a technology gross profit margin of 51.1 percent compared with 52.0 percent in the year-ago quarter. Technology operating profit margin declined to 10.9 percent compared with 13.3 percent in the year-ago quarter. CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS Unisys generated $28 million of cash from operations in the first quarter of 2011. This compared with operating cash usage of $28 million in the first quarter of 2010, which included a $100 million reduction in receivables sold through the company's U.S. accounts receivable securitization facility. Capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2011 declined to $43 million compared with $69 million in the year-ago quarter. The company used $15 million of free cash (cash provided by operations less capital expenditures) in the first quarter of 2011. This compared with free cash usage of $97 million in the year-ago quarter, which included the $100 million impact of reduction in securitized receivables. At March 31, 2011, Unisys reported total debt of $619 million and a cash balance of $833 million. As previously announced, during the first quarter Unisys issued 2,587,500 shares of mandatory convertible preferred stock at an initial liquidation preference of $100 per share. The company used the net proceeds to redeem principal amounts of $124.7 million of its 12 3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2014 and $86.3 million of its 14 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2015. Also as previously announced, on April 11, Unisys successfully completed a cash tender offer for principal amounts of $134.8 million of its 14 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 and $44.1 million of its 12 3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2014.
