SANTA ROSA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today reported financial
results for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 ended July 31, 2017.
“We delivered strong third quarter results. Order growth accelerated to
8 percent on a core basis driven by strength in our key focus areas, and
cash generated from operations was $98 million. We are pleased with the
momentum we are building in the market with new and existing customers
developing leading-edge technologies such as 5G, next-gen Wi-Fi,
high-speed datacenters, and automotive and energy,” said Ron Nersesian,
Keysight president and CEO.
Third Quarter Financial Summary

GAAP revenue grew 16 percent to reach $832 million, when compared with
$715 million last year. Non-GAAP revenue, which excludes the impact of
fair value adjustment to acquisition-related deferred revenue
balances, grew 20 percent to reach $863 million, when compared with
$718 million in the third quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP core revenue,
which excludes the impact of currency and revenue from acquisitions
completed within the last twelve months, grew 4 percent year-over-year.
-
GAAP operating margin was -0.4 percent, compared with 15 percent in
the third quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP operating margin was 19 percent,
compared with 20 percent in the third quarter of 2016.
-

quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP net income was $115 million, or $0.61 per
share, compared with $108 million, or $0.63 per share in the third

Reporting Segments
-
Communications Solutions Group (CSG)
CSG revenue was $418 million in the third quarter, compared to $424
million in the prior year third quarter. Growth in commercial
communications and 5G was offset by a decline in aerospace, defense and
government.
-
Electronic Industrial Solutions Group (EISG)
EISG revenue was $218 million in the third quarter, up 14 percent when
compared to $191 million in the third quarter of 2016. EISG growth was
driven by strong demand for general electronics, semiconductor, and
automotive and energy solutions.
-
Ixia Solutions Group (ISG)
ISG revenue was $120 million in the third quarter. ISG revenue was
impacted by continued challenging market conditions with its network
equipment manufacturers customers in the U.S., while demand for
visibility and application and security solutions was strong among
service provider customers.
-
Services Solutions Group (SSG)
SSG revenue in the third quarter grew 4 percent year-over-year to $107
million when compared with $103 million in the third quarter of 2016.
Services growth was driven by remarketed solution sales.
Fourth Quarter Outlook
Keysight provides guidance based on current market conditions and
expectations.
Keysight’s fourth quarter 2017 GAAP revenue is expected to be in the
range of $850 million to $880 million and non-GAAP revenue is expected
to be in the range of $875 million to $905 million. Fourth quarter
non-GAAP earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.59 to
$0.69. Non-GAAP earnings per share as projected for the fourth quarter
of fiscal year 2017 exclude items that pertain to future events and are
not currently estimable with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Therefore,
no reconciliation to GAAP amounts has been provided. Further information
is discussed in the section titled “Non-GAAP Measures” below.

FY2017 financial results and its fourth quarter FY2017 outlook on a
conference call with investors today at 1:30 p.m. PT. This event will be

company’s reasons for including or excluding certain categories of
income or expenses from our non-GAAP results.

Net revenue for our segments, Ixia Solutions Group and
Communications Solutions Group excludes the impact of fair value
adjustments to acquisition-related deferred revenue balances of
$31 million and zero for Q3'17, and zero and $3 million for Q3'16,
respectively. Segment revenue and income from operations are
consistent with the respective non-GAAP measures as discussed on
Page 9.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
|
|
|
Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to analyze
and assess the overall performance of the business, to make
operating decisions and to forecast and plan for future periods. We
believe that our investors benefit from seeing our results “through
the eyes of management” in addition to seeing our GAAP results. This
information enhances investors’ understanding of the continuing
performance of our business and facilitates comparison of
performance to our historical and future periods.
|
|
Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures used by other companies, including industry peer
companies, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative
purposes.
|
|
These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to and not
a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with
GAAP. The discussion below presents information about each of the
non-GAAP financial measures and the company’s reasons for including
or excluding certain categories of income or expenses from our
non-GAAP results. In future periods, we may exclude such items and
may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items.
Accordingly, adjustments for these items and other similar items in
our non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that
these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual.
|
|
Non-GAAP Revenue includes recognition of acquired deferred
revenue that was written down to fair value in purchase accounting.
Management believes that excluding fair value purchase accounting
adjustments more closely correlates with the ordinary and ongoing
course of the acquired company’s operations and facilitates analysis
of revenue growth and business trends.
|
|
Non-GAAP Core Revenue is non-GAAP revenue (see Non-GAAP
Revenue above) excluding the impact of foreign currency
changes and revenue associated with businesses acquired within the
last twelve months We exclude the impact of foreign currency
changes as currency rates can fluctuate based on factors that are
not within our control and can obscure revenue growth trends. As
the nature, size and number of acquisitions can vary significantly
from period to period and as compared to our peers, we exclude
revenue associated with recently acquired businesses to facilitate
comparisons of revenue growth and analysis of underlying business
trends.
|
|
Non-GAAP Income from Operations, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP
Diluted EPS may include the following types of adjustments:
|
|
•
|
Share-based Compensation Expense: We exclude share-based
compensation expense from our non-GAAP financial measures because
share-based compensation expense can vary significantly from period
to period based on the company’s share price, as well as the timing,
size and nature of equity awards granted. Management believes the
exclusion of this expense facilitates the ability of investors to
compare the company’s operating results with those of other
companies, many of which also exclude share-based compensation
expense in determining their non-GAAP financial measures.
|
|
|
•
|
Acquisition-related Items: We exclude the impact of certain
items recorded in connection with business combinations from our
non-GAAP financial measures that are either non-cash or not normal,
recurring operating expenses due to their nature, variability of
amounts and lack of predictability as to occurrence or timing. These
amounts may include non-cash items such as the amortization of
acquired intangible assets and amortization of items associated with
fair value purchase accounting adjustments, including recognition of
acquired deferred revenue (see Non-GAAP Revenue above). We also
exclude transaction and certain other cash costs associated with
business acquisitions that are not normal recurring operating
expenses, including amortization of amounts paid to redeem
acquirees’ unvested stock-based compensation awards, and legal,
accounting and due diligence costs. We exclude these charges to
facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of our current operating
performance and comparisons to our past operating performance.
|
|
|
•
|
Separation and Related Costs: We exclude all incremental
expenses incurred to effect the separation of Keysight from Agilent.
We exclude expenses that would not have been incurred if we had no
plan to spin-off including, among other things, branding, legal,
accounting and advisory fees, costs to resize and optimize our
infrastructure and other costs to separate and transition from
Agilent. We believe that these costs do not reflect expected future
operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation
of the company’s current operating performance or comparisons to our
operating performance in other periods.
|
|
|
•
|
Restructuring and Related Costs: We exclude incremental
expenses associated with restructuring initiatives, usually aimed at
material changes in the business or cost structure. Such costs may
include employee separation costs, asset impairments,
facility-related costs, contract termination fees, and costs to move
operations from one location to another. These activities can vary
significantly from period to period based on the timing, size and
nature of restructuring plans; therefore, we do not consider such
costs to be normal, recurring operating expenses. We believe that
these costs do not reflect expected future operating expenses and do
not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s current
operating performance or comparisons to our operating performance in
other periods.
|
|
|
•
|
Other Items: We exclude certain other significant income or
expense items that may occur occasionally and are not normal,
recurring, cash operating from our non-GAAP financial measures. Such
items are evaluated on an individual basis based on both
quantitative and qualitative factors and generally represent items
that we would not anticipate occurring as part of our normal
business on a regular basis. While not all-inclusive, examples of
certain other significant items excluded from non-GAAP financial
measures would be: significant realized gains or losses associated
with our employee benefit plans, significant litigation-related loss
contingency accruals and settlement fees or gains associated with
other disputed matters.
|
|
|
•
|
Estimated Tax Rate: We utilize a fixed long-term projected
non-GAAP tax rate. When projecting this long-term rate, we exclude
any tax benefits or expenses that are not directly related to
ongoing operations and which are either isolated or cannot be
expected to occur again with any regularity or predictability.
Additionally, we evaluate our current long-term projections, current
tax structure and other factors, such as existing tax positions in
various jurisdictions and key tax holidays in major jurisdictions
where Keysight operates. This tax rate could change in the future
for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to significant
changes in geographic earnings mix including acquisition activity,
or fundamental tax law changes in major jurisdictions where Keysight
operates. The above reasons also limit our ability to reasonably
estimate the future GAAP tax rate and provide a reconciliation of
the expected non-GAAP earnings per share for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2017 to the GAAP equivalent.
|
|
|
Management recognizes these items can have a material impact on our
cash flows and/or our net income. Our GAAP financial statements,
including our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows,
portray those effects. Although we believe it is useful for
investors to see core performance free of special items, investors
should understand that the excluded costs are actual expenses that
may impact the cash available to us for other uses. To gain a
complete picture of all effects on the company’s profit and loss
from any and all events, management does (and investors should) rely
upon the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations prepared in
accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures focus instead upon the
core business of the company, which is only a subset, albeit a
critical one, of the company’s performance.
