IBM REPORTS 2005 SECOND-QUARTER RESULTS
- Total diluted earnings per common share of $1.14, including $.02
per diluted share of non-recurring charges and gains; without these
non-recurring actions, IBM diluted earnings per share were $1.12.
- Total revenue of $22.3 billion, down 4 percent versus the second
quarter of 2004, but up 6 percent without the impact of
the divested PC business.
ARMONK, N.Y., July 18, 2005 . . . IBM today announced second-quarter 2005 diluted earnings per common share of $1.14 from continuing
operations, including a $.72 per share of incremental charges related to
workforce reductions, a $.45 per share gain on the sale of its Personal
Computing business, and $.29 per share of other income due to a
settlement agreement entered into with Microsoft. Without these non-recurring items, diluted earnings per share were $1.12 compared with
diluted earnings in the second quarter of 2004 of $1.01 per share.
Second-quarter income from continuing operations was $1.85 billion,
including the non-recurring pretax items for incremental restructuring
charges of $1.7 billion, offset by a $1.1 billion gain on the sale of
the PC business, and a $775 million settlement received from Microsoft.
Without these non-recurring items, income from continuing operations was
$1.82 billion as compared to $1.74 billion in the second quarter of
2004. Total revenues for the second quarter of 2005 of $22.3 billion,
which includes $557 million of PC revenue for April 2005, decreased 4
percent (6 percent, adjusting for currency) from the second quarter of
2004. Excluding the revenue from the divested PC business, second-quarter revenues increased 6 percent (4 percent, adjusting for currency)
compared with the second quarter of 2004.
Samuel J. Palmisano, IBM chairman and chief executive officer,
said: "IBM made several strategic and important transitions in the
second quarter. We seamlessly moved our PC business to Lenovo,
implemented a streamlined management system in Europe, and restructured
important parts of the company for future growth. I am proud of how the
IBM team managed these transitions while, at the same time, delivering a
solid quarter.
"IBM returned to form in this quarter. In particular, strategic,
high-growth businesses -- in Business Performance Transformation
Services, software and in key industry sectors and emerging markets --
were among our best-performing operations, achieving double-digit
revenue growth. In addition, IBM Business Consulting Services posted an
outstanding quarter, with strong revenue growth and a 30 percent
increase in signings. This performance reinforces our confidence in our
business model, and in our mission to apply unique, high-value skills
and solutions to transform our clients' businesses."
As previously announced, IBM completed an agreement on April 30,
2005 to sell its PC business. As a result, the company's second-quarter
2005 results include the operational performance of the PC business for
the month of April 2005 only. The segment results included in the press
release reflect the new segment structure under which the company will
operate as of the second quarter of 2005. PC results are identified on
a standalone basis. In the second quarter of 2005, external PC revenue
was $557 million and the pretax loss was $149 million, including a loss
on intercompany sales and charges of $13 million.
Additional detail regarding the incremental restructuring charges,
the gain on the PC sale, the Microsoft settlement, and the PC operation
performance in the company's second-quarter results will be provided
during IBM's regular quarterly earnings conference call.
Second-quarter revenue growth of 6 percent (4 percent, adjusting
for currency) excluding the divested PC business was driven by growth
across all geographies. In the Americas, second-quarter revenues were
$9.4 billion, down 3 percent as reported (up 5 percent, adjusting for
currency and PCs) from the 2004 period. Revenues from Europe/Middle
East/Africa were $7.5 billion, flat (up 4 percent, adjusting for
currency and PCs). Asia-Pacific revenues decreased 10 percent (up 2
percent, adjusting for currency and PCs) to $4.6 billion. OEM revenues
were $702 million, flat compared with the 2004 second quarter.
Without the PC business, revenues increased in all of IBM's five
industry sectors in the second-quarter 2005 led by double-digit growth
in the Public and Distribution sectors, as well as in sales to Small and
Medium Businesses.
Revenues from Global Services, including maintenance, increased 6
percent (4 percent, adjusting for currency) to $12.0 billion in the
second quarter. Global Services revenues, excluding maintenance,
increased 6 percent (4 percent, adjusting for currency) as well. IBM
signed services contracts totaling $14.6 billion and ended the quarter
with an estimated services backlog, including Strategic Outsourcing,
Business Consulting Services, Integrated Technology Services and
Maintenance, of $113 billion.
IBM's revenues for Business Performance Transformation Services
grew over 25 percent in the quarter (and are up over 30 percent year to
date), and in addition to the Global Services signings and backlog
figures, there were approximately $250 million of Engineering and
Technology Services signings to provide BPTS customers with design skill
and technical capabilities.
Hardware revenues decreased 25 percent (27 percent, adjusting for
currency) to $5.6 billion in the second-quarter 2005 versus the year-ago
period. Hardware revenues excluding the divested PC business were $5.0
billion, an increase of 5 percent (4 percent, adjusting for currency).
Hardware revenues for the Systems and Technology Group, which was
newly realigned to include Retail Stores Solutions and Printing Systems,
totaled $4.9 billion for the quarter, up 5 percent. Revenue growth from
S&TG eServer products was driven by pSeries UNIX servers, which
increased 36 percent, and xSeries servers and iSeries midrange servers,
which increased 11 percent and 10 percent, respectively. Revenues from
the zSeries mainframe product decreased 24 percent compared with the
year-ago period. Total delivery of zSeries computing power, which is
measured in MIPS (millions of instructions per second), decreased 19
percent. In addition to eServers, revenues from Storage Systems
increased 19 percent and Microelectronics decreased 5 percent.
Revenues from Software were $3.8 billion, an increase of 10 percent
(7 percent, adjusting for currency) compared with the second quarter of
2004. Revenues from IBM's middleware brands, which include WebSphere,
DB2, Tivoli, Lotus and Rational products, were $3.0 billion, up 11
percent versus the second quarter of 2004. Operating systems revenues
increased 3 percent to $592 million compared with the prior-year
quarter.
Revenues for the WebSphere family of software products, which
facilitates customers' ability to manage a wide variety of business
processes using open standards to interconnect applications, data and
operating systems, increased 18 percent. Revenues for Information
Management software increased 15 percent with revenue growth of 14
percent in the DB2 database family of software offerings, which enables
clients to leverage information on demand. Revenues from Tivoli
software (infrastructure software that enables customers to centrally
manage networks and storage) increased 28 percent, and revenues for
Lotus software, which allows collaborating and messaging by customers in
real-time communication and knowledge management, increased 17 percent.
Revenues from Rational software (integrated development tools) increased
8 percent compared with the year-ago quarter.
As a result, IBM expects to gain market share for the second
quarter in the collaborative software, systems management and security
software, Web services and data management categories.
Global Financing revenues declined 4 percent (7 percent, adjusting
for currency) in the second quarter to $622 million. Revenues from the
Enterprise Investments/Other area, which includes industry-specific IT
solutions such as product life-cycle management software, decreased 3
percent (5 percent, adjusting for currency) to $286 million versus the
prior-year second quarter.
The company's total gross profit margin was 39.4 percent in the
2005 second quarter compared with 36.4 percent in the 2004 period.
Excluding the PC business, gross profit margin is 40.6 percent versus
39.7 percent in the prior-year quarter.
The effect of the company's second-quarter actions is included in
several components of total expense and other income. Overall, 2005
second quarter's total expense and other income increased 2 percent to
$6.0 billion. SG&A expense increased 35 percent to $6.5 billion
primarily due to the incremental restructuring charges of $1.5 billion.
RD&E expense was $1.5 billion, essentially the same as the year-ago
period. Intellectual property and custom development income decreased
to $288 million compared with $432 million a year ago. Other (income)
and expense was $1.7 billion of income in the second quarter of 2005,
reflecting the $775 million benefit for the Microsoft settlement and the
$1.1 billion gain from the sale of the PC business offset by incremental
charges of $236 million relating to restructuring, versus $23 million of
expense in the same period last year.
IBM's effective tax rate, including the second-quarter actions, in
the second-quarter 2005 was 32.3 percent, compared with 30.1 percent in
the second quarter of 2004. The company's tax rate increased 2.2 points
due to the effect of the second-quarter non-recurring actions.
Share repurchases totaled approximately $1.6 billion in the second
quarter. The weighted-average number of diluted common shares
outstanding in the second-quarter 2005 was 1.63 billion compared with
1.71 billion shares in the same period of 2004. As of June 30, 2005,
there were 1.60 billion basic common shares outstanding.
IBM ended the second quarter of 2005 with $8.7 billion of cash on
hand. The balance sheet remains strong, and the company is well
positioned to take advantage of opportunities.
Debt, including Global Financing, totaled $23.7 billion, compared
with $22.9 billion at year-end 2004. From a management segment view,
the non-global financing debt-to-capitalization ratio was 9.5 percent at
the end of June 30, 2005, and Global Financing debt declined $1.4
billion from year-end 2004 to a total of $20.9 billion, resulting in a
debt-to-equity ratio of 6.7 to 1.
Year-To-Date 2005 Results
Income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30,
2005 was $3.26 billion, including non-recurring pretax items for
incremental restructuring charges of $1.7 billion, offset by the $1.1
billion gain on the sale of the PC business, and the $775 million
settlement received from Microsoft. Diluted earnings per share from
continuing operations were $1.98 compared with $1.80 per diluted share
for the 2004 period. Revenues from continuing operations for the six-month period, which includes PC revenues of $2.9 billion for the first
four months of 2005 only, totaled $45.2 billion, essentially flat (down
3 percent, adjusting for currency) compared with $45.3 billion for the
six months of 2004. Without the revenues from the divested PC business,
revenues totaled $42.3 billion, up 5 percent (3 percent, adjusting for
currency) compared with the six-month period of 2004.
For total operations, net income for the first six months of 2005,
including a loss from discontinued operations of $27 million, was $3.23
billion, or $1.96 per diluted share, compared with the six months of
2004 net income of $3.10 billion, or $1.80 per diluted share, which
included a loss from discontinued operations of $3 million.
