Positive
  • Generated $300+ million in operating cash flow
  • Reduced inventory by $362 million (6%) quarter-over-quarter
  • Returned $80 million to shareholders via buybacks and dividends
  • Second consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth in Asia (+8.4%)
Negative
  • Sales declined 8.7% year-over-year to $5.7 billion
  • Adjusted EPS decreased 37.9% to $0.87 from $1.40 year-over-year
  • Operating income margin dropped to 2.7% from 3.8% year-over-year
  • Farnell segment operating margin declined to 1.0% from 4.0% year-over-year
  • Guidance indicates expected sales decline of 6-11% for next quarter

Insights

The Q2 FY2025 results reveal Avnet's resilience amid challenging market conditions, though with notable pressure points. The Electronic Components segment, contributing 93.9% of total revenue, saw operating margins compress to 3.4% from 4.3%, while Farnell experienced more severe margin deterioration to 1.0% from 4.0%.

The company's aggressive working capital optimization deserves attention, with inventory reduction of $362 million (6% QoQ) contributing to robust operating cash flow. This strategic focus has strengthened the balance sheet, enabling sustained shareholder returns through both dividends ($29 million) and share repurchases ($51 million).

Geographically, Asia's continued growth (8.4% YoY) stands out against significant declines in EMEA (-25.1%) and Americas (-13.8%). The Q3 guidance, projecting a 6-11% sequential decline, factors in Lunar New Year seasonality in Asia and suggests persistent weakness in Western markets.

The margin compression across both segments, coupled with cautious guidance, indicates ongoing challenges in pricing power and market conditions. However, the company's strong cash generation and proactive inventory management provide important financial flexibility as it navigates these headwinds.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance to GAAP guidance is presented in the “Non-GAAP Financial Information” section of this press release.

The above guidance implies a sequential sales change of down 6% to down 11%. This sales guidance implies expectations of seasonal sales declines in Asia due to the Lunar New Year and modest sales declines in the western regions compared to typical seasonal sales growth.

The above guidance also excludes restructuring, integration and other expenses, foreign currency gains and losses, and certain income tax adjustments. The above guidance assumes similar interest expense to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and an adjusted effective tax rate of between 22% and 26%. The above guidance assumes 88 million average diluted shares outstanding and average currency exchange rates as shown in the table below:

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company also discloses certain non-GAAP financial information including (i) adjusted operating income, (ii) adjusted other income (expense), (iii) adjusted income before income taxes, (iv) adjusted income tax expense (benefit), and (v) adjusted diluted earnings per share.

There are also references to the impact of foreign currency in the discussion of the Company’s results of operations. When the U.S. Dollar strengthens and the stronger exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is a decrease in U.S. Dollars of reported results. Conversely, when the U.S. Dollar weakens and the weaker exchange rates of the current year are used to translate the results of operations of Avnet’s subsidiaries denominated in foreign currencies, the resulting impact is an increase in U.S. Dollars of reported results. In the discussion of the Company’s results of operations, results excluding this impact are referred to as “constant currency.” Management believes sales in constant currency is a useful measure for evaluating current period performance as compared with prior periods and for understanding underlying trends. In order to determine the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on sales, income or expense items for subsidiaries reporting in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, the Company adjusts the average exchange rates used in current periods to be consistent with the average exchange rates in effect during the comparative period.

Management believes that operating income adjusted for restructuring, integration and other expenses, and amortization of acquired intangible assets, is a useful measure to help investors better assess and understand the Company’s operating performance. This is especially the case when comparing results with previous periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of Avnet’s normal operating results or non-cash in nature. Management analyzes operating income without the impact of these items as an indicator of ongoing margin performance and underlying trends in the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals and, in most cases, for measuring performance for compensation purposes. Management measures operating income for its reportable segments excluding restructuring, integration and other expenses, and amortization of acquired intangible assets and other.

Management also believes income tax expense (benefit), net income and diluted earnings per share adjusted for the impact of the items described above, gain on legal settlements and other, foreign currency gains and losses and certain items impacting income tax expense (benefit) are useful to investors because they provide a measure of the Company’s net profitability on a more comparable basis to historical periods and provide a more meaningful basis for forecasting future performance. Adjustments to income tax expense (benefit) and the effective income tax rate include the effect of changes in tax laws, certain changes in valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits, income tax audit settlements and adjustments to the effective tax rate based upon the expected long-term adjusted effective tax rate. Additionally, because of management’s focus on generating shareholder value, of which net profitability is a primary driver, management believes net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of these items provides an important measure of the Company’s net profitability for the investing public.

Additional non-GAAP metrics management uses are adjusted operating income margin, which is defined as adjusted operating income divided by sales and the adjusted effective income tax rate, which is defined as adjusted income tax expense divided by adjusted income before income taxes.

Any analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP.
