PITTSBURGH, Aug. 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Wesco International (NYSE: WCC), a leading provider
of business-to-business distribution, logistics services and supply
chain solutions, announces its results for the second quarter of
2024.
"Our second quarter results were somewhat below our expectations
for a low single-digit decline in reported sales against a
continued mixed and multi-speed economic environment. Results
improved as we moved through the quarter with a return to organic
sales growth in June along with sequential margin expansion. We
continued to benefit from the increase in AI-driven data center
growth with sales in our Wesco Data Center Solutions business up
double-digits. This was more than offset by a significant slowdown
in purchases by our utility customers. While we remain confident in
the long-term growth of our Utility and Broadband Solutions
business, the customer destocking and delay of capital projects
clearly impacted our results in the quarter," said John Engel, Chairman, President and CEO.
Mr. Engel added, "As planned, we executed our capital allocation
strategies and repurchased $300
million of our Wesco stock in the second quarter and closed
on two small but important software-based acquisitions, entroCim
and Storeroom Logix. With our record $500
million of free cash flow generation in the first half, we
are on track to deliver our full year free cash flow outlook of
$800 million to $1 billion and will continue to execute our
capital allocation strategies."
Mr. Engel concluded, "We expect the mixed economic environment
and customer purchasing delays in utility and broadband to continue
through the second half of 2024. Quoting, bid activity levels, and
our backlog remain healthy, supporting our view for sales growth in
the second half against an easier year-over-year comparable, but at
a more modest rate than our previous outlook. As a result, we are
reducing our full-year outlook and now expect organic sales growth
of (1.5)% to 0.5% versus prior year and adjusted EBITDA margin of
7.0% to 7.3%. We plan to build on our improving sequential momentum
in the second half as we continue to benefit from our global
capabilities, leading scale and expanded portfolio."
The following are results for the three months ended
June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30,
2023:
- Net sales were $5.5 billion for
the second quarter of 2024 compared to $5.7
billion for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 4.6%.
On an organic basis, which removes the impact of the WIS
divestiture and differences in foreign exchange rates, sales for
the second quarter of 2024 declined by 0.8%. The decrease in
organic sales reflects volume declines in the EES and UBS segments,
partially offset by a volume increase in the CSS segment and price
inflation in the EES and UBS segments.
- Backlog at the end of the second quarter of 2024 declined by
10% compared to the end of the second quarter of 2023.
Sequentially, backlog declined by approximately 2% in the
quarter.
- Cost of goods sold for the second quarter of 2024 was
$4.3 billion compared to $4.5 billion for the second quarter of 2023, and
gross profit was $1.2 billion for the
second quarter of 2024 and 2023. As a percentage of net sales,
gross profit was 21.9% and 21.6% for the second quarter of 2024 and
2023, respectively. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of
net sales for the second quarter of 2024 primarily reflects the
impact of the divestiture of the WIS business. Sequentially, gross
profit as a percentage of net sales increased 60 basis points from
21.3% in the first quarter of 2024.
- Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were
$828.4 million, or 15.1% of net
sales, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $831.7 million, or 14.5% of net sales, for the
second quarter of 2023. SG&A expenses for the second quarter of
2024 include a $17.8 million loss on
abandonment of assets, $6.1 million
of digital transformation costs, and $0.9
million of restructuring costs. SG&A expenses for the
second quarter of 2023 include $9.8
million of restructuring costs, $7.3
million of digital transformation costs, and $3.6 million of merger-related and integration
costs. Adjusted for these costs, SG&A expenses were
$803.6 million, or 14.7% of net
sales, for the second quarter of 2024 and $811.0 million, or 14.1% of net sales, for the
second quarter of 2023. Adjusted SG&A expenses for the second
quarter of 2024 reflect the impact of the divestiture of the WIS
business and lower payroll-related expenses, partially offset by
higher costs to operate our facilities.
- Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter of 2024
was $46.1 million compared to
$46.9 million for the second quarter
of 2023, a decrease of $0.8
million.
- Operating profit was $323.5
million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to
$363.8 million for the second quarter
of 2023, a decrease of $40.3 million,
or 11.1%. Operating profit as a percentage of net sales was 5.9%
for the current quarter compared to 6.3% for the second quarter of
the prior year. Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of assets,
digital transformation costs, and restructuring costs described
above, operating profit was $348.3
million, or 6.4% of net sales, for the second quarter of
2024. Adjusted for restructuring costs, digital transformation
costs, merger-related and integration costs, and accelerated
trademark amortization expense described above, operating profit
was $385.3 million, or 6.7% of net
sales, for the second quarter of 2023.
- Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 and 2023
was $98.8 million.
- Other non-operating income for the second quarter of 2024 was
$95.9 million compared to expense of
$0.8 million for the second quarter
of 2023. In the second quarter of 2024, we completed the
divestiture of our WIS business and recognized a gain from the sale
of $102.9 million. Additionally, in
the second quarter of 2024, we recognized a $3.8 million loss on the termination of a
business arrangement. Adjusted for the gain on the divestiture of
our WIS business and the loss on termination of business
arrangement, other non-operating expense was $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2024.
- The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was 27.4%
compared to 27.2% for the second quarter of 2023.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $217.7 million for the second quarter of 2024
compared to $178.7 million for the
second quarter of 2023. Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of
assets, digital transformation costs, restructuring costs, the gain
recognized on the divestiture of the WIS business, the loss on
termination of business arrangement, and the related income tax
effects, net income attributable to common stockholders was
$163.5 million for the second quarter
of 2024. Adjusted for restructuring costs, digital transformation
costs, merger-related and integration costs, accelerated trademark
amortization expense, and the related income tax effects, net
income attributable to common stockholders was $194.3 million for the second quarter of 2023.
Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders decreased
15.9% year-over-year.
- Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024 was
$4.28, based on 50.9 million diluted
shares, compared to $3.41 for the
second quarter of 2023, based on 52.4 million diluted shares.
Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of assets, digital
transformation costs, restructuring costs, the gain recognized on
the divestiture of our WIS business, the loss on termination of
business arrangement, and the related income tax effects, earnings
per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024 was $3.21. Adjusted for restructuring costs, digital
transformation costs, merger-related and integration costs,
accelerated trademark amortization expense, and the related income
tax effects, earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of
2023 was $3.71. Adjusted earnings per
diluted share decreased 13.5% year-over-year.
- Operating cash flow for the second quarter of 2024 was an
outflow of $223.8 million compared to
an inflow of $317.6 million for the
second quarter of 2023. The net cash outflow in the second quarter
of 2024 was primarily driven by changes in net working capital,
partially offset by net income of $232.8
million. Fluctuations in accounts payable resulted in a cash
out flow of $279.0 million for the
second quarter of 2024, primarily due to the timing of inventory
purchases and payments to suppliers. An increase in trade accounts
receivable resulted in a use of cash of $142.7 million due to the timing of receipts from
customers.
The following are results for the six months ended June 30,
2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023:
- Net sales were $10.8 billion for
the first six months of 2024 compared to $11.3 billion for the first six months of 2023, a
decrease of 3.9%. Organic sales for the first six months of 2024
declined by 2.0%, as the divestiture of the WIS business and
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates negatively impacted reported
net sales by 1.8% and 0.1%, respectively. The decrease in organic
sales reflects volume declines in all three segments, partially
offset by price inflation.
- Cost of goods sold for the first six months of 2024 was
$8.5 billion compared to $8.8 billion for the first six months of 2023,
and gross profit was $2.3 billion and
$2.5 billion, respectively. As a
percentage of net sales, gross profit was 21.6% and 21.8% for the
first six months of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The unfavorable
decrease of 20 basis points reflects a shift in sales mix, lower
supplier volume rebates, higher inventory adjustments, and lower
cash discounts.
- SG&A expenses were $1,657.8
million, or 15.3% of net sales, for the first six months of
2024, compared to $1,649.4 million,
or 14.6% of net sales, for the first six months of 2023. SG&A
expenses for the first six months of 2024 include a $17.8 million loss on abandonment of assets,
$12.1 million of digital
transformation costs, $9.0 million of
restructuring costs, and $4.8 million
of excise taxes on excess pension plan assets. SG&A expenses
for first six months of 2023 include $15.6
million of digital transformation costs, $14.8 million of merger-related and integration
costs, and $9.8 million of
restructuring costs. Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of
assets, digital transformation costs, restructuring costs, and
excise taxes on excess pension plan assets, SG&A expenses were
$1,614.1 million, or 14.9% of net
sales, for the first six months of 2024. Adjusted for digital
transformation costs, merger-related and integration costs, and
restructuring costs, SG&A expenses were $1,609.2 million, or 14.3% of net sales for the
first six months of 2023. The increase in adjusted SG&A
expenses for the first six months of 2024 compared to the first six
months of 2023 reflects higher costs to operate our facilities, an
increase in IT costs, and an increase in taxes. These increases
were partially offset by a decrease in transportation costs and
lower payroll related expenses.
- Depreciation and amortization for the first six months of 2024
was $91.6 million compared to
$91.3 million for the first six
months of 2023, an increase of $0.3
million.
- Operating profit was $586.5
million for the first six months of 2024 compared to
$710.2 million for the first six
months of 2023, a decrease of $123.7
million, or 17.4%. Operating profit as a percentage of net
sales was 5.4% for the current six-month period compared to 6.3%
for the first six months of the prior year. Adjusted for the loss
on abandonment of assets, digital transformation costs,
restructuring costs, and excise taxes on excess pension plan assets
described above, operating profit was $630.2
million, or 5.8% of net sales, for the first six months of
2024. Adjusted for digital transformation costs, merger-related and
integration costs, restructuring costs, and accelerated trademark
amortization expense described above, operating profit was
$751.2 million, or 6.7% of net sales,
for the first six months of 2023.
- Net interest expense for the first six months of 2024 was
$193.2 million compared to
$193.8 million for the first six
months of 2023.
- Other non-operating income for the first six months of 2024 was
$74.3 million compared to expense of
$10.9 million for the first six
months of 2023. In the first six months of 2024, we completed the
divestiture of our WIS business and recognized a gain from the sale
of $102.9 million. Additionally, in
the first six months of 2024, we recognized a $3.8 million loss on termination of business
arrangement. Due to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against certain
foreign currencies, a net foreign currency exchange loss of
$20.7 million was recognized for the
first six months of 2024 compared to a net loss of $13.2 million for the first six months of 2023.
Net costs of $5.5 million, comprising
pension settlement cost, and net benefits of $0.7 million associated with the non-service cost
components of net periodic pension (benefit) cost were recognized
for the six months ended June 30,
2024 and 2023, respectively. Adjusted for the gain on
divestiture of our WIS business, the loss on termination of
business arrangement, and pension settlement cost described above,
other non-operating expense was $19.3
million for the first six months of 2024.
- The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2024 was
25.4% compared to 22.9% for the first six months of 2023. The
effective tax rate for the first six months of 2024 was higher than
the comparable prior year period due to lower discrete income tax
benefits resulting from the exercise and vesting of stock-based
awards as compared to the prior year period.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $319.2 million for the first six months of 2024
compared to $361.5 million for the
first six months of 2023. Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of
assets, digital transformation costs, restructuring costs, excise
taxes on excess pension plan assets, the gain recognized on the
divestiture of the WIS business, the loss on termination of
business arrangement, pension settlement cost, and the related
income tax effects, net income attributable to common stockholders
was $282.9 million for the first six
months of 2024. Adjusted for digital transformation costs,
merger-related and integration costs, restructuring costs,
accelerated trademark amortization expense, and the related income
tax effects, net income attributable to common stockholders for the
first six months of 2023 was $391.3
million. Adjusted net income attributable to common
stockholders decreased 27.7% year-over-year.
- Earnings per diluted share for the first six months of 2024 was
$6.22, based on 51.3 million diluted
shares, compared to $6.90 for the
first six months of 2023, based on 52.4 million diluted shares.
Adjusted for the loss on abandonment of assets, digital
transformation costs, restructuring costs, excise taxes on excess
pension plan assets, the gain recognized on the divestiture of the
WIS business, the loss on termination of business arrangement,
pension settlement cost, and the related income tax effects,
earnings per diluted share for the first six months of 2024 was
$5.51. Adjusted for digital
transformation costs, merger-related and integration costs,
restructuring costs, accelerated trademark amortization expense,
and the related income tax effects, earnings per diluted share for
the first six months of 2023 was $7.47. Adjusted earnings per diluted share
decreased 26.2% year-over-year.
- Operating cash flow for the first six months of 2024 was an
inflow of $522.5 million compared to
$62.2 million for the first six
months of 2023. Free cash flow for the first six months of 2024 was
$497.3 million, or 159.1% of adjusted
net income. The net cash inflow in the first six months of 2024 was
primarily driven by net income of $348.9
million and non-cash adjustments to net income totaling
$32.1 million. Operating cash flow
was positively impacted by net changes in assets and liabilities of
$141.6 million, which primarily
comprised an increase in accounts payable of $341.9 million, primarily due to the timing of
inventory purchases and payments to suppliers, and a decrease in
inventories of $18.9 million,
partially offset by an increase in trade accounts receivable of
$258.8 million due to the timing of
receipts from customers.

The six months ended
June 30, 2024 includes the issuance of the Company's $900.0

and (the "2029 Notes") and the Company's $850.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the "2032 Notes"
and, together with the 2029 Notes, the "2029 and 2032 Notes"). The
proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 and 2032 Notes were used for
the redemption of the Company's $1,500.0 million aggregate
principal amount of 7.125% Senior Notes due 2025 (the "2025

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") above, this
earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures.
These financial measures include organic sales growth, gross
profit, gross margin, earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted
EBITDA margin, financial leverage, free cash flow, adjusted
selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted income from
operations, adjusted operating margin, adjusted other non-operating
expense (income), adjusted provision for income taxes, adjusted
income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted net
income attributable to WESCO International, Inc., adjusted net
income attributable to common stockholders, and adjusted earnings
per diluted share. The Company believes that these non-GAAP
measures are useful to investors as they provide a better
understanding of our financial condition and results of operations
on a comparable basis. Additionally, certain non-GAAP measures
either focus on or exclude items impacting comparability of results
such as merger-related and integration costs, digital
transformation costs, restructuring costs, cloud computing
arrangement amortization, pension settlement cost and excise taxes
on excess pension plan assets related to the final settlement of
the Anixter Inc. Pension Plan, loss on abandonment of assets, the
gain recognized on the divestiture of the WIS business, the loss on
termination of business arrangement, and the related income tax
effects, allowing investors to more easily compare the Company's
financial performance from period to period. Management does not
use these non-GAAP financial measures for any purpose other than
the reasons stated above.

Note: Organic sales
growth is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales performance.
Organic sales growth is calculated by deducting the percentage
impact from acquisitions and divestitures for one year following
the respective transaction, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates
and number of workdays from the reported percentage change in
consolidated net sales. Workday impact represents the change in the
number of operating days period-over-period after adjusting for
weekends and public holidays in the United States; there was no
change in the number of workdays in the second quarter and first
six months of 2024 compared to the second quarter and first six
months of 2023. The second quarter of 2024 had one additional
workday compared to the first quarter of 2024.

Note: For the three and

operations, other non-operating (income) expense, the provision for
income taxes and earnings per diluted share have been adjusted to
exclude the loss on abandonment of assets, digital transformation
costs, restructuring costs, excise taxes on excess pension plan
assets related to the final settlement of the Anixter Inc. Pension
Plan, the gain recognized on the divestiture of the WIS business,
the loss on termination of business arrangement, pension settlement
cost, and the related income tax effects. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2023, SG&A expenses, income from
operations, the provision for income taxes and earnings per diluted
share have been adjusted to exclude digital transformation costs,
merger-related and integration costs, restructuring costs,
accelerated amortization expense, and the related income tax
effects. These non-GAAP financial measures provide a better
understanding of our financial results on a comparable
basis.

Note: EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin % are non-GAAP financial measures
that provide indicators of the Company's performance and its
ability to meet debt service requirements. For the three months
ended June 30, 2024, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization before other
non-operating expenses (income), non-cash stock-based compensation
expense, loss on abandonment of assets, digital transformation
costs, cloud computing arrangement amortization, and restructuring
costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA is
defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization before other non-operating expenses (income), non-cash
stock-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, digital
transformation costs, and merger-related and integration costs. For
the three months ended March 31, 2024, Adjusted EBITDA is defined
as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
before other non-operating expenses (income), non-cash stock-based
compensation expense, digital transformation costs, restructuring
costs, cloud computing arrangement amortization, and excise taxes
on excess pension plan assets related to the final settlement of
the Anixter Inc. Pension Plan. Adjusted EBITDA margin % is
calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by net sales.

meet debt service requirements. For the six months ended June 30,
2024, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization before other non-operating
expenses (income), non-cash stock-based compensation expense, loss
on abandonment of assets, digital transformation costs,
restructuring costs, cloud computing arrangement amortization, and
excise taxes on excess pension plan assets related to the final
settlement of the Anixter Inc. Pension Plan. For the six months
ended June 30, 2023, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization before other
non-operating expenses (income), non-cash stock-based compensation
expense, digital transformation costs, merger-related and
integration costs, and restructuring costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin
% is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by net
sales.

leverage ratio is calculated by dividing total debt, excluding debt
discount, debt issuance costs and fair value adjustments, net of
cash, by adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as the trailing twelve
months earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the trailing twelve
months EBITDA before other non-operating expenses (income),
non-cash stock-based compensation expense, merger-related and
integration costs, restructuring costs, digital transformation
costs, excise taxes on excess pension plan assets related to the
final settlement of the Anixter Inc. Pension Plan, loss on
abandonment of assets, and cloud computing arrangement
amortization.

Note: Free cash flow is
a non-GAAP financial measure of liquidity. Capital expenditures are
deducted from operating cash flow to determine free cash flow. Free
cash flow is available to fund investing and financing activities.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company paid
for certain costs related to digital transformation and
restructuring. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023,
the Company paid for certain costs to integrate the acquired
Anixter business and related to digital transformation as well as
certain restructuring costs. Such expenditures have been added back
to operating cash flow to determine free cash flow for such
periods. Our calculation of free cash flow may not be comparable to
similar measures used by other companies.
