Gross profit decreased by 6.3% to $61.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $65.5 million in the prior year quarter.

Gross profit increased by 12.8% to $23.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $20.8 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin decreased by 110 basis points to 12.7% primarily due to a higher mix of large rollouts of end-point devices in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Net sales for the Enterprise Solutions segment decreased by 17.7% to $287.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $348.9 million in the prior year quarter. Gross profit decreased by 15.1% to $43.0 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $50.6 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin increased by 46 basis points to 15.0% primarily due to an increase in software and services recorded on a net basis.

Quarterly Highlights

  • Our Healthcare revenue grew 5% sequentially, driven primarily by customers investing in integrated workplace transformation solutions. In addition, demand for networking and collaboration solutions continued to be an integral component of patient care and the overall patient experience.
  • Our commitment to providing exceptional customer service and supporting workplace transformation needs helped us to be named both the Microsoft US Surface Solutions Partner of the Year and Modern Work, Surface Hub Reseller US Partner of the Year for 2023.
  • Our Technology Integration and Distribution Center completed a record number of custom configurations in the second quarter as customers demand for managed services has increased.
  • Our Public Sector Solutions segment achieved record net sales to K-12 customers.
  • The company generated record cashflow from operations of $116 million in the second quarter.

Quarterly Sales by Product Mix:

  • Notebook/mobility sales decreased 19% year over year and accounted for 34% of net sales in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 37% of net sales in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Accessories sales decreased by 23% year over year and accounted for 11% of net sales in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 13% of net sales in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Networking sales increased by 44% year over year and accounted for 11% of net sales in the second quarter of 2023, compared to 7% of net sales in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Software sales decreased by 10% year over year and accounted for 9% of net sales in the second quarter of 2023 and 2022.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased in the second quarter of 2023 to $101.0 million from $102.1 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in SG&A was primarily due to cost reduction initiatives partially offset by on-going investments in our services business. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 13.8%, compared to 12.3% in the prior year quarter. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales is primarily due to the decrease in net sales.

In addition, the second quarter of 2023 results include $1.7 million of restructuring and other related costs associated with severance and other costs related to internal restructuring activities.

Cash and cash equivalents were $244.0 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $94.9 million at June 30, 2022. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company repurchased 49,538 shares of stock for $2.0 million.

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance and may include statements concerning, among other things, financial results, business plans (including statements regarding new products and services we may offer and future expenditures, costs and investments), future liabilities, impairments, competition, and the impact of current macroeconomic conditions on our businesses and results of operations. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “may,” “should,” “will,” or similar statements or variations of such terms, although not all forward-looking statements include such terms. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions as of the date of this report. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from expectations or results projected or implied by forward-looking statements.

Such differences may result from actions taken by us, including expense reduction or strategic initiatives (including reductions in force, capital investments and new or expanded product offerings or services), our execution of our business plans (including our inventory management, our cost structure and our management and other personnel decisions) or other business decisions, as well as from developments beyond our control, including;

  • substantial competition reducing our market share;
  • significant price competition reducing our profit margins;
  • the loss of any of our major vendors adversely affecting the number of type of products we may offer;
  • virtualization of information technology resources and applications, including networks, servers, applications, and data storage disrupting or altering our traditional distribution models;
  • service interruptions at third-partly shippers negatively impacting our ability to deliver the products we offer to our customers;
  • increases in shipping and postage costs reducing our margins and adversely affecting our results of operations;
  • loss of key persons or the inability to attract, train and retain qualified personnel adversely affecting our ability to operate our business;
  • cyberattacks or the failure to safeguard personal information and our IT systems resulting in liability and harm to our reputation; and
  • the rate of innovations in the hardware, software and services we offer as well as macroeconomics factors facing the global economy, including disruptions in the capital markets, economic sanctions and economic slowdowns or recessions, rising inflation and changing interest rates have impacted and are expected to continue to impact the level of investment our customers are willing to make in IT products.

Additional factors include those described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, including under the captions “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Business,” in our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, including under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A forward-looking statement is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of future events or circumstances. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. Unless required by law, we assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated, to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the statements are made.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
 
A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is detailed below. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) adjusted for restructuring and other charges, and stock-based compensation. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either includes or excludes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide helpful information with respect to our operating performance including our ability to fund our future capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA also provides helpful information as it is the primary measure used in certain financial covenants contained in our credit agreements. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and not as alternatives for Net income or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similar titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is defined diluted earnings per share adjusted for restructuring and other charges, net of tax.
