Trimble Reports Second Quarter of 2017 Results

The GAAP tax rate for the quarter was 26 percent as compared to 7 percent in the second quarter of 2016, and the non-GAAP tax rate was 23 percent as compared to 24 percent in the second quarter of 2016. 

Operating cash flow for the first two quarters of 2017 was $248.7 million, up 27 percent as compared to the first two quarters of 2016. Deferred revenue for the second quarter of 2017 was $341.0 million, up 8 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2016.

During the second quarter, Trimble acquired BOS Forestry, NM Group, and Innovative Software Engineering (ISE). During the second quarter, Trimble also announced that it agreed to acquire Müller-Elektronik, which closed early in the third quarter of 2017.

"The second quarter revenue and income exceeded our expectations with improved performance across the company," said Steven W. Berglund, Trimble's president and chief executive officer. "The performance validates our expectations of a further step-up in revenue growth during the second half of the year, driven by both organic growth and a contribution from new acquisitions."

Forward Looking Guidance

For the third quarter of 2017 Trimble expects revenue to be between $645 million and $675 million with GAAP earnings per share of $0.16 to $0.20 and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.34 to $0.38. Non-GAAP guidance excludes the amortization of intangibles of $37 million related to previous acquisitions, anticipated acquisition costs of $3 million, the anticipated impact of stock-based compensation expense of $15 million, and $3 million in anticipated restructuring charges. GAAP guidance assumes a tax rate of 23 percent and non-GAAP guidance assumes a tax rate of 23 percent. Both GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share assume approximately 258 million shares outstanding.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To help investors understand Trimble's past financial performance and future results, as well as its performance relative to competitors, Trimble supplements the financial results that the company provides in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures can be used to evaluate Trimble's historical and prospective financial performance, as well as its performance relative to competitors. The company's management regularly uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the business, and to make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Trimble believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the business. Further, Trimble believes some of company's investors track "core operating performance" as a means of evaluating performance in the ordinary, ongoing, and customary course of the company's operations. Core operating performance excludes items that are non-cash, not expected to recur or not reflective of ongoing financial results. Management also believes that looking at Trimble's core operating performance provides a supplemental way to provide consistency in period to period comparisons.

The specific non-GAAP measures, which Trimble uses along with a reconciliation to the nearest comparable GAAP measures and the explanation for why these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the financial condition and results of operations and why management chose to exclude selected items can be found at the end of this release. The method the company uses to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. Trimble's non-GAAP results are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with Trimble's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this earnings release. Additional financial information about Trimble's use of non-GAAP results can be found on the Investor Relations page of the Trimble website at: http://investor.trimble.com.
