Full Year 2011 Highlights
| Increased income from continuing operations per diluted share to $2.40, up 66% over last year's $1.45 per diluted share; |
| Grew revenue 23% to $1.98 billion, from $1.62 billion in 2010, and |
| Generated $145.7 million in free cash flow, exceeding net income for the year and up 70% over 2010. |
St. Louis, Missouri February 9, 2012 Belden Inc. (NYSE: BDC), a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission critical applications, today reported fiscal fourth quarter and full year 2011 results for the period ended December 31, 2011.
Fourth Quarter 2011
Revenue for the quarter totaled $464.4 million, up $39.2 million, or 9.2%, compared to $425.2 million in the fourth quarter 2010. Income from continuing operations per diluted share totaled $0.57, compared to $0.22 in the fourth quarter 2010.
John Stroup, President and CEO of Belden Inc., said, Our fourth quarter results reflect a solid finish to a strong year. End-market demand for Belden products remains healthy as evidenced by our sell-through performance. In response to an uncertain economic environment, volatile commodity prices, and shorter lead-times, our customers and channel partners aggressively reduced inventory levels. Due to similar economic concerns, we executed restructuring actions during the quarter to improve our cost position and flexibility in Europe and our consumer electronics business in Asia. I am pleased that such actions could be accomplished in a quarter where earnings grew 159% year-over-year.
The fourth quarter 2011 results include $7.6 million of non-recurring charges, primarily restructuring charges in Europe and China, and favorable non-recurring tax items with an impact of $5.5 million.

Full Year 2011
Revenue for the year totaled $1.98 billion, up $360 million or 23% compared to $1.62 billion in 2010. Operating income totaled $187 million or 9.4% of revenue for the year, compared to $129 million or 8.0% of revenue in 2010. Income from continuing operations per diluted share totaled $2.40 for the year, compared to $1.45 in 2010, a 66% increase.
Mr. Stroup remarked, I am extremely pleased with the Companys 2011 results, which include 66% earnings growth, 12% organic growth and robust free cash flow at 127% of net income.
Outlook
Global economic forecasts predict modest growth in the world economy in 2012, which could continue to weaken, should the European economic situation deteriorate. We are focusing on our strategic goals, including our Market Delivery System and Lean Enterprise initiatives, which position us to perform in this uncertain environment. We are, therefore, reaffirming our previous outlook for 2012, said Mr. Stroup.
The Company expects first quarter 2012 revenues to be $445 million to $455 million, and income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $0.48 to $0.53. For the full year ending December 31, 2012, the Company expects revenues to be $1.98 billion to $2.03 billion, and income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $2.70 to $2.90.

financial markets may increase the Companys borrowing costs. Additional factors that may cause actual results to differ from the Companys expectations include: the Companys reliance on key distributors in marketing products; the Companys ability to execute and realize the expected benefits from strategic initiatives (including revenue growth, cost control, and productivity improvement programs); changes in the level of economic activity in the Companys major geographic markets; difficulties in realigning manufacturing capacity and capabilities among the Companys global manufacturing facilities; the competitiveness of the global cable, connectivity and networking industries; variability in the Companys quarterly and annual effective tax rates; changes in accounting rules and interpretation of these rules which may affect the Companys reported earnings; changes in currency exchange rates and political and economic uncertainties in the countries where the Company conducts business; demand for the Companys products; the cost and availability of materials including copper, plastic compounds derived from fossil fuels, electronic components, and other materials; energy costs; the Companys ability to achieve acquisition performance expectations and to integrate acquired businesses successfully; the ability of the Company to develop and introduce new products; the Company having to recognize charges that would reduce income as a result of impairing goodwill and other intangible assets; security risks and the potential for business interruption from operating in volatile countries; disruptions or failures of the Companys (or the Companys suppliers or customers) systems or operations in the event of a major earthquake, weather event, cyber-attack, terrorist attack, or other catastrophic event that could cause delays in completing sales, providing services, or performing other mission-critical functions; and other factors. For a more complete discussion of risk factors, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2011.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited)
We define free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from the disposal of tangible assets. We believe free cash flow provides useful information to investors regarding our ability to generate cash from business operations that is available for acquisitions and other investments, service of debt principal, dividends and share repurchases. We use free cash flow, as defined, as one financial measure to monitor and evaluate performance and liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only in conjunction with financial measures reported according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our definition of free cash flow may differ from definitions used by other companies.
