IBM REPORTS 2006 SECOND-QUARTER RESULTS
- Diluted earnings per share of $1.30 from continuing
operations, up 14 percent as reported, or 16 percent
excluding non-recurring items from the
second-quarter 2005;
- Income from continuing operations of $2.0 billion, up
9 percent, or 11 percent excluding the non-recurring
items;
- Total revenues of $21.9 billion, down 2 percent as
reported, up 1 percent when adjusted for the impact of
the divested PC business.
ARMONK, N.Y., July 18, 2006 . . . IBM today announced second-quarter
2006 diluted earnings per common share of $1.30 from continuing operations,
compared with diluted earnings of $1.14 per share in the second quarter of
2005, a year-over-year increase of 14 percent. Second-quarter income from
continuing operations was $2.0 billion compared with $1.9 billion in the
second quarter of 2005, an increase of 9 percent.
The company posted a 16 percent increase in diluted earnings per share
year over year without the second-quarter 2005 non-recurring pretax items
of a year ago, which included incremental restructuring charges of $1.7
billion ($.72 per share), offset by a $1.1 billion ($.45 per share) gain on
the sale of the PC business, and a $775 million ($.29 per share) legal
settlement received from Microsoft. Income from continuing operations
increased 11 percent over the second quarter of 2005 without the non-recurring items of a year ago.
Total revenues for the second quarter of 2006 of $21.9 billion
decreased 2 percent as reported and adjusting for currency from the second
quarter of 2005, which includes revenue from the divested PC business.
Excluding the PC revenue, revenues increased 1 percent compared with the
second quarter of 2005.
Samuel J. Palmisano, IBM chairman and chief executive officer, said:
"IBM had another solid quarter with good earnings-per-share results. Our
performance was led by our software business, which generated $4.2 billion
of revenue this quarter with strong margins, and is a significant part of
our integrated portfolio. Our System z mainframe business returned to form
this quarter, and we continued to manage important transitions in parts of
our services business, which again improved margins. We continued to grow
revenues in many key emerging markets. Cash flow, a key strength of our
business model, drove high returns to shareholders through our stock
buyback program.
"IBM has taken many strategic actions in recent years to reposition
the company. Our focus on higher-value segments of the marketplace
continues to deliver good results to shareholders, our cash position
improved significantly year over year, and we remain committed to investing
in our business and driving business performance to generate strong returns
for investors. IBM has returned more than $5.8 billion to shareholders in
the first half of the year."
From a geographic perspective, the Americas second-quarter revenues
were $9.5 billion, an increase of 1 percent as reported (2 percent,
adjusting for currency and PCs) from the 2005 period. Revenues from
Europe/Middle East/Africa were $7.2 billion, down 4 percent (1 percent,
adjusting for currency and PCs). Asia-Pacific revenues decreased 9 percent
(3 percent, adjusting for currency and PCs) to $4.2 billion. OEM revenues
were $939 million, up 34 percent compared with the 2005 second quarter.
Revenues from Global Services, including maintenance, decreased 1
percent as reported and adjusting for currency to $11.9 billion in the
second quarter of 2006. IBM signed services contracts totaling $9.6
billion and ended the quarter with an estimated services backlog, including
Strategic Outsourcing, Business Transformation Outsourcing, Global Business
Services, Integrated Technology Services and Maintenance, of $109 billion.
Hardware revenues decreased 7 percent (8 percent, adjusting for
currency) to $5.1 billion in the second-quarter 2006 compared to $5.6
billion in the year-ago period, which includes revenue from the divested PC
business. Hardware revenues without the PC business increased 3 percent (2
percent, adjusting for currency).
Hardware revenues for the Systems and Technology Group totaled $5.0
billion for the quarter, up 3 percent. Revenues from the System z server
products increased 7 percent compared with the year-ago period. Total
delivery of System z computing power, which is measured in MIPS (millions
of instructions per second), increased 7 percent. Revenues from the System
x server products were flat compared with the year-ago period. Revenues
from the System p UNIX servers decreased 10 percent and revenues from the
System i servers decreased 7 percent. Revenues from Microelectronics
increased 45 percent and revenues from System Storage decreased 2 percent.
Revenues from Software were $4.2 billion, an increase of 5 percent as
reported and adjusting for currency compared with the second quarter of
2005. Revenues from IBM's middleware brands, which include WebSphere,
Information Management, Tivoli, Lotus and Rational products, were $3.2
billion, up 4 percent versus the second quarter of 2005. Operating systems
revenues decreased 6 percent to $558 million compared with the prior-year
quarter. Revenues from other software and services increased, led by solid
growth in the Product Lifecycle Management portfolio of products.
For the WebSphere family of software products, which facilitate
customers' ability to manage a wide variety of business processes using
open standards to interconnect applications, data and operating systems,
revenues increased 17 percent. Revenues for Information Management
software, which enables clients to leverage information on demand,
increased 6 percent. Revenues from Tivoli software, infrastructure
software that enables customers to centrally manage networks including
security and storage capability, increased 12 percent, and revenues for
Lotus software, which allows collaborating and messaging by customers in
real-time communication and knowledge management, increased 6 percent year
over year. Revenues from Rational software, integrated tools to improve
the processes of software development, increased 8 percent compared with
the year-ago quarter.
Global Financing revenues decreased 7 percent as reported and
adjusting for currency in the second quarter to $580 million.
The company's total gross profit margin was 41.2 percent in the 2006
second quarter compared with 39.4 percent in the 2005 period, which
includes the divested PC business. Excluding the PC business, the second-quarter 2005 gross profit margin was 40.6 percent.
Total expense and other income increased 1 percent to $6.1 billion
compared with the prior-year period, which includes the non-recurring
items. SG&A expense decreased 24 percent primarily due to the prior-year
incremental restructuring charges of $1.5 billion. RD&E expense increased
3 percent compared with the year-ago period. Intellectual property and
custom development income decreased to $188 million compared with $288
million a year ago. Other (income) and expense was $196 million of income
in the second quarter of 2006, versus $1.7 billion of income in the same
period last year, reflecting the $775 million benefit for the Microsoft
legal settlement and the $1.1 billion gain from the sale of the PC business
partially offset by incremental charges of $236 million relating to
restructuring.
IBM's effective tax rate in the second-quarter 2006 was 30.0 percent,
compared with 32.3 percent in the second quarter of 2005. The company's
tax rate in the second-quarter 2005 increased 2.3 points due to the effect
of the second-quarter non-recurring actions.
Share repurchases totaled approximately $2.5 billion in the second
quarter. The weighted-average number of diluted common shares outstanding
in the second-quarter 2006 was 1.56 billion compared with 1.63 billion
shares in the same period of 2005. As of June 30, 2006, there were 1.52
billion basic common shares outstanding.
IBM ended the second quarter of 2006 with $10.0 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 $21.8 billion, compared with
$22.6 billion at year-end 2005. From a management segment view, the non-global financing debt-to-capitalization ratio was 1.5 percent at the end of
June 30, 2006, and Global Financing debt increased $813 million from year-end 2005 to a total of $21.3 billion, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 6.9 to 1.
Year-To-Date 2006 Results
Income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30,
2006 was $3.7 billion, compared with $3.3 billion in the year-ago period,
which includes 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 legal settlement received from Microsoft.
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $2.37 compared
with $1.98 per diluted share for the 2005 period. Revenues from continuing
operations for the six-month period totaled $42.5 billion, a decrease of 6
percent (4 percent, adjusting for currency) compared with $45.2 billion for
the six months of 2005, which includes PC revenues of $2.9 billion for the
first four months of 2005 only. Excluding the divested PC business,
revenues increased 1 percent (2 percent, adjusting for currency) compared
with the six-month period of 2005.
For total operations, net income for the first six months of 2006 was
$3.7 billion, or $2.37 per diluted share, compared with the six months of
2005 net income of $3.2 billion, or $1.96 per diluted share, which included
a loss from discontinued operations of $27 million.
