The Company's cash and cash equivalents at the end of the fiscal quarter were $11,553 million, compared to $12,647 million at the end of the prior quarter.

During the second fiscal quarter, the Company generated $4,502 million in cash from operations and spent $122 million on capital expenditures. The Company spent $3,420 million on share repurchases and eliminations, consisting of $2,806 million in repurchases of 4.6 million shares and $614 million of withholding tax payments related to net settled equity awards that vested in the quarter (representing approximately 1.0 million shares withheld).

On March 31, 2023, the Company paid a cash dividend of $4.60 per share, totaling $1,914 million.

The differences between the Company's GAAP and non-GAAP results are described generally under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below, and presented in detail in the financial reconciliation tables attached to this release.

Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Business Outlook

Based on current business trends and conditions, the outlook for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, ending July 30, 2023, is expected to be as follows: 

  • Third quarter revenue guidance of approximately $8.85 billion; and
  • Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA guidance of approximately 65 percent of projected revenue.

The guidance provided above is only an estimate of what the Company believes is realizable as of the date of this release. The Company is not readily able to provide a reconciliation of projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income without unreasonable effort. Actual results will vary from the guidance and the variations may be material. The Company undertakes no intent or obligation to publicly update or revise any of these projections, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Quarterly Dividends

The Company's Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $4.60 per share. The dividend is payable on June 30, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on June 22, 2023.

Broadcom Inc. will host a conference call to review its financial results for the second quarter fiscal year 2023 and to discuss the business outlook, today at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial data is included in the supplemental financial data attached to this press release. Broadcom believes non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into the Company's on-going performance. Therefore, Broadcom provides this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison and to help them evaluate the results of the Company's on-going operations and enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. 

In addition to GAAP reporting, Broadcom provides investors with net income, operating income, gross margin, operating expenses, cash flow and other data on a non-GAAP basis. This non-GAAP information excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring, impairment and disposal charges, acquisition-related costs, including integration costs, purchase accounting effect on inventory, litigation settlements, loss on debt extinguishment, gains (losses) on investments, income (loss) from discontinued operations, non-GAAP tax reconciling adjustments, and other adjustments. Management does not believe that these items are reflective of the Company's underlying performance. Internally, these non-GAAP measures are significant measures used by management for purposes of evaluating the core operating performance of the Company, establishing internal budgets, calculating return on investment for development programs and growth initiatives, comparing performance with internal forecasts and targeted business models, strategic planning, evaluating and valuing potential acquisition candidates and how their operations compare to the Company's operations, and benchmarking performance externally against the Company's competitors. The exclusion of these and other similar items from Broadcom's non-GAAP financial results should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual.

Free cash flow measures have limitations as they omit certain components of the overall cash flow statement and do not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Investors should not consider presentation of free cash flow measures as implying that stockholders have any right to such cash. Broadcom's free cash flow may not be calculated in a manner comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies.

Preferred Stock that was antidilutive on a GAAP basis for the fiscal quarter and two fiscal quarters ended May 1, 2022.
