Insights

Financial Analyst

TE Connectivity delivered record Q2 adjusted EPS with strong growth in Industrial segment, raised dividend 9%, and projects continued growth despite tariff headwinds.

TE Connectivity's Q2 FY2025 results demonstrate impressive operational execution, with sales of $4.1 billion (up 4% reported, 5% organically) and record adjusted EPS of $2.10 (up 13% year-over-year). The stark difference between adjusted EPS and GAAP EPS ($0.04) stems from a one-time non-cash tax charge due to tax law changes - not an operational issue.

The company's order intake of $4.25 billion (up 6% both yearly and sequentially) signals building momentum. This positive trajectory is particularly evident in the Industrial segment, which achieved 17% sales growth driven by AI, aerospace, and energy applications, while also expanding operating margins.

Cash generation remains robust with $1.5 billion in operating cash flow and $1.1 billion in free cash flow for the first half. Management's confidence is reflected in their 9% dividend increase and the return of approximately $1 billion to shareholders.

The recently completed Richards Manufacturing acquisition strengthens TE's position in the North American utility market, aligning with industrial technology growth trends. Looking ahead, Q3 guidance projects sales of $4.3 billion (up 8%) and adjusted EPS of $2.06 (up 8%), incorporating the Richards acquisition while accounting for tariff impacts and tax rate headwinds of $0.04 year-over-year and $0.06 sequentially.

Despite mentioning an "uncertain macroeconomic environment," the company's localized manufacturing strategy positions it to effectively navigate trade challenges while maintaining operational excellence and growth momentum.

Third quarter guidance reflects continued momentum and Richards acquisition 

GALWAY, Ireland, April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TE Connectivity plc (NYSE: TEL) today reported results for the fiscal second quarter ended Mar. 28, 2025.

Second Quarter Highlights

• Net sales were $4.1 billion, up 4% on a reported basis year over year and 5% organically driven by double digit growth in the Industrial segment.
• GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations was $0.04, which includes a one-time non-cash tax charge due to a change in tax law in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted EPS was $2.10, a company record and up approximately 13% year over year.
• Orders were $4.25 billion, up 6% both year over year and sequentially.
• Operating margin was 18.1% and adjusted operating margin was 19.4%, driven by strong operational performance in both segments.
• Cash flow from operating activities during the first half of the fiscal year was $1.5 billion and free cash flow was approximately $1.1 billion.
• Returned approximately $1 billion to shareholders and announced a 9% dividend increase.
• Richards Manufacturing Co. acquisition completed in April to capitalize on strong growth opportunities in the North American utility market.
• Issued One Connected World corporate responsibility report, highlighted by an 80% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 greenhouse gas emissions during the past four years.

"Our teams delivered strong operational performance that led to record adjusted EPS and results that exceeded our guidance on both sales and earnings," said TE Connectivity CEO Terrence Curtin. "Our Transportation segment continued to execute well, capitalizing on our leading position in Asia and maintaining strong margin performance. Our Industrial segment expanded its operating margin on sales growth of 17%, driven by broad business growth and ongoing momentum in AI, aerospace and energy applications.

"Due to our long-standing business strategy and investments to locate manufacturing facilities near customers, we expect to effectively navigate the current trade environment. Our ongoing momentum and ability to pull operational levers gives us confidence in our third quarter guidance for year-over-year improvement in sales and EPS. We are well positioned for the current uncertain macroeconomic environment and remain focused on innovating in long-term industrial technology growth trends and creating value for both our customers and owners."

Third Quarter FY25 Outlook
For the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the company expects net sales of approximately $4.30 billion, up 8% year over year. GAAP EPS from continuing operations is expected to be approximately $2.02, up nearly 9% year over year, with adjusted EPS of approximately $2.06, up 8% year over year. Third quarter guidance includes the benefit from the Richards acquisition and tariff impact assumptions, as well as tax rate headwinds of $0.04 on a year over year basis and $0.06 sequentially.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present non-GAAP performance and liquidity measures as we believe it is appropriate for investors to consider adjusted financial measures in addition to results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information and should not be considered replacements for results in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and in its decision-making processes related to the operations of our company. We believe these measures provide meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance the understanding of our operating performance, ability to generate cash, and the trends of our business. Additionally, we believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operations. The primary limitation of these measures is that they exclude the financial impact of items that would otherwise either increase or decrease our reported results. This limitation is best addressed by using these non-GAAP financial measures in combination with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in order to better understand the amounts, character, and impact of any increase or decrease in reported amounts. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.

The following provides additional information regarding our non-GAAP financial measures:

• Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) – represents net sales growth (decline) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, and acquisitions and divestitures that occurred in the preceding twelve months, if any. Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) is a useful measure of our performance because it excludes items that are not completely under management's control, such as the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and items that do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
• Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin – represent operating income and operating margin, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, and other income or charges, if any. We utilize these adjusted measures in combination with operating income and operating margin to assess segment level operating performance and to provide insight to management in evaluating segment operating plan execution and market conditions. Adjusted Operating Income is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
• Adjusted Income Tax (Expense) Benefit and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate – represent income tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) after adjusting for the tax effect of special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any.
• Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations – represents income from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects.
• Adjusted Earnings Per Share – represents diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
• Free Cash Flow (FCF) – is a useful measure of our ability to generate cash. The difference between net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) and Free Cash Flow consists mainly of significant cash outflows and inflows that we believe are useful to identify. We believe Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated from our operations. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities excluding voluntary pension contributions and the cash impact of special items, if any, minus net capital expenditures. Voluntary pension contributions are excluded from the GAAP financial measure because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. Certain special items, including cash paid (collected) pursuant to collateral requirements related to cross-currency swap contracts, are also excluded by management in evaluating Free Cash Flow. Net capital expenditures consist of capital expenditures less proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. These items are subtracted because they represent long-term commitments. In the calculation of Free Cash Flow, we subtract certain cash items that are ultimately within management's and the Board of Directors' discretion to direct and may imply that there is less or more cash available for our programs than the most comparable GAAP financial measure indicates. It should not be inferred that the entire Free Cash Flow amount is available for future discretionary expenditures, as our definition of Free Cash Flow does not consider certain non-discretionary expenditures, such as debt payments. In addition, we may have other discretionary expenditures, such as discretionary dividends, share repurchases, and business acquisitions, that are not considered in the calculation of Free Cash Flow.
