SANTA CRUZ, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Plantronics, Inc. (NYSE: PLT) today announced fourth quarter and fiscal year 2013 results. Highlights of the quarter include the following (comparisons are against the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012):

• Net revenues were $204.2 million, an increase of 15% compared with $177.6 million.
• GAAP gross margin was 52.0% compared with 53.6%; non-GAAP gross margin was 52.3% compared with 53.9%.
• GAAP operating income was $36.9 million; non-GAAP operating income was $41.9 million as compared to $32.0 million and $36.2 million, respectively.
• GAAP diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) was $0.67, an increase of $0.12, or 22%, and within our guidance of $0.63 to $0.67.
• Non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.71, an increase of $0.09, or 15%, and within our guidance of $0.68 to $0.72.

Q4 GAAP Results
			Q4 2013		Q4 2012		Change (%)
Net revenues			$204.2 million		$177.6 million		15.0%
Operating income			$36.9 million		$32.0 million		15.3%
Operating Margin			18.1%		18.0%
Diluted EPS			$0.67		$0.55		21.8%
Q4 Non-GAAP Results
			Q4 2013		Q4 2012		Change (%)
Operating income			$41.9 million		$36.2 million		15.7%
Operating Margin			20.5%		20.4%
Diluted EPS			$0.71		$0.62		14.5%

Net revenues for fiscal year 2013 increased 7% to $762.2 million compared with $713.4 million for fiscal year 2012. Our GAAP diluted EPS increased by 3% to $2.49 for fiscal year 2013 compared with $2.41 in fiscal year 2012. Non-GAAP diluted EPS for fiscal year 2013 increased by 5% to $2.77 compared with $2.65 in fiscal year 2012. The difference between GAAP and non-GAAP EPS for fiscal year 2013 consists of stock-based compensation charges, restructuring and other related charges, all net of the associated tax impact, a tax benefit from the expiration of certain statutes of limitations, and the retroactive reinstatement of the U.S. federal R&D tax credit related to calendar year 2012.

A reconciliation between our GAAP and non-GAAP results is provided in the tables at the end of this press release.

“Our fiscal year revenues and earnings per share set records as we experienced continued growth in the Unified Communications (“UC”) market throughout the year. In the fourth quarter we experienced strong demand from China for Bluetooth headsets as a result of their recent enforcement of their previously enacted hands-free driving law, and some rebound in the global economy,” said Ken Kannappan, President & CEO (currently on a temporary medical leave). “Unified Communications (“UC”) momentum continues to build and it remains our largest growth opportunity.”

“We generated approximately $32 million in cash flow from operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 and approximately $126 million for the full fiscal year. We grew our cash, cash equivalents and short and long term investments position to approximately $426 million while paying off our line of credit,” said Pam Strayer, Acting Chief Executive Officer, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

OCC net revenues increased 9% to $142.7 million compared with $131.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 driven by the strength of our UC revenues. Net revenues from UC products, a subset of OCC, grew by 36% to $36.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 compared with $27.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012.

Mobile net revenues were $49.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, an increase of 41% from $35.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 primarily as a result of strong demand related to the enforcement of the hands free driving law in China beginning in January 2013.

Dividend Announcement

We also announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share. The dividend will be payable on June 10, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 20, 2013.

Business Outlook

The following statements are based on our current expectations and many of these statements are forward-looking. Actual results are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and may differ materially from our expectations.

We have a “book and ship” business model whereby we fulfill the majority of orders received within 48 hours of receipt of those orders. However, our backlog is occasionally subject to cancellation or rescheduling by our customers on short notice with little or no penalty. Therefore, the level of backlog does not provide reliable visibility into potential future revenues.

Our business is inherently difficult to forecast, particularly with continuing uncertainty in global economic conditions, and there can be no assurance that expectations of incoming orders over the balance of the current quarter will materialize.

Subject to the foregoing, we currently expect the following range of financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014:

• Net revenues of $198 million to $205 million;
• GAAP operating income of $33 million to $37 million;
• Non-GAAP operating income of $40 million to $44 million, excluding the impact of $7 million from stock-based compensation, accelerated depreciation, and restructuring costs from GAAP operating income;
• Assuming approximately 43.8 million diluted average weighted shares outstanding:
  • GAAP diluted EPS of $0.56 to $0.62;
  • Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.68 to $0.74; and
  • Cost of stock-based compensation, accelerated depreciation and restructuring costs to be approximately $0.12 per diluted share.

Conference Call Scheduled to Discuss Financial Results

We have scheduled a conference call to discuss fourth quarter and full year fiscal year 2013 results. The conference call will take place today, May 7, 2013, at 2:00 PM (Pacific Time). All interested investors and potential investors in our stock are invited to participate. To listen to the call, please dial in five to ten minutes prior to the scheduled starting time and refer to the “Plantronics Conference Call.” Participants from North America should call (888) 301-8736 and other participants should call (706) 634-7260.

A replay of the call with the conference ID # 31670407 will be available until June 7, 2013 at (855) 859-2056 or (800) 585-8367 for callers from North America and at (404) 537-3406 for all other callers. The conference call will also be simultaneously webcast in the Investor Relations section of our corporate website at www.plantronics.com/ir, and the webcast of the conference call will remain available on our website for one month.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

For the periods presented, we have excluded certain non-cash expenses and charges, net of tax, including stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and employee stock purchases, purchase accounting amortization, accelerated depreciation, restructuring and other related charges, and the retroactive reinstatement of the R&D tax credit, along with the tax benefits from the expiration of certain statutes of limitations from non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP measures primarily because management does not consider them as part of our target operating model. We believe that the use of non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity and helps investors compare actual results to our long-term target operating model goals. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods; however, non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, gross margin, operating income, operating margin, the effective tax rate, net income, or EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Safe Harbor

This 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, including statements relating to (i) our estimates of GAAP and non-GAAP financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, including net revenues, operating income and diluted EPS; (ii) our estimates of stock-based compensation, accelerated depreciation, restructuring and other related charges, and tax benefits from the expiration of certain statutes of limitation, as well as the impact of these non-cash expenses on Non-GAAP operating income and diluted EPS; and (iii) our estimate of weighted average shares outstanding for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, in addition to other matters discussed in this press release that are not purely historical data. We do not assume any obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new developments or otherwise.

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated are:

• Micro and macro economic conditions in our domestic and international markets;
• our ability to realize our UC plans and to achieve the financial results projected to arise from UC adoption could be adversely affected by a variety of factors including the following: (i) as UC becomes more widely adopted, the risk that competitors will offer solutions that will effectively commoditize our headsets which, in turn, will reduce the sales prices for our headsets; (ii) our plans are dependent upon adoption of our UC solution by major platform providers and strategic partners such as Microsoft Corporation, Cisco Systems, Inc., Avaya, Inc., Alcatel-Lucent, and IBM, and we have a limited ability to influence such providers with respect to the functionality of their platforms or their product offerings, their rate of deployment, and their willingness to integrate their platforms and product offerings with our solutions, and our support expenditures may substantially increase over time due to the complex nature of the platforms and product offerings developed by the major UC providers as these platforms and product offerings continue to evolve and become more commonly adopted; (iii) the development of UC solutions is technically complex and this may delay or limit our ability to introduce solutions to the market on a timely basis and that are cost effective, feature rich, stable and attractive to our customers on a timely basis; (iv) our development of UC solutions is dependent on our ability to implement and execute new and different processes in connection with the design, development and manufacturing of complex electronic systems comprised of hardware, firmware and software that must work in a wide variety of environments and multiple variations, which may in some instances increase the risk of development delays or errors and require the hiring of new personnel and/or fourth party contractors which increases our costs; (v) because UC offerings involve complex integration of hardware and software with UC infrastructure, our sales model and expertise will need to continue to evolve; (vi) as UC becomes more widely adopted we anticipate that competition for market share will increase, and some competitors may have superior technical and economic resources; (vii) UC solutions may not be adopted with the breadth and speed in the marketplace that we currently anticipate; and, (viii) UC may evolve rapidly and unpredictably and our inability to timely and cost-effectively adapt to those changes and future requirements may impact our profitability in this market and our overall margins;
• failure to match production to demand given long lead times and the difficulty of forecasting unit volumes and acquiring the component parts and materials to meet demand without having excess inventory or incurring cancellation charges;
• volatility in prices from our suppliers, including our manufacturers located in China, have in the past and could in the future negatively affect our profitability and/or market share;
• fluctuations in foreign exchange rates;
• with respect to our stock repurchase program, prevailing stock market conditions generally, and the price of our stock specifically;
• the bankruptcy or financial weakness of distributors or key customers, or the bankruptcy of or reduction in capacity of our key suppliers;
• additional risk factors including: interruption in the supply of sole-sourced critical components, continuity of component supply at costs consistent with our plans, the inherent risks of our substantial foreign operations, and problems that might affect our manufacturing facilities in Mexico; and
• seasonality in one or more of our business segments.

For more information concerning these and other possible risks, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 25, 2012 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as recent press releases.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

For the periods presented, we have excluded certain non-cash expenses and charges, net of tax, including stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and employee stock purchases, purchase accounting amortization, accelerated depreciation, restructuring and other related charges, along with tax benefits from the expiration of certain statutes of limitations and the retroactive reinstatement of the federal R&D tax credit from non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS. We exclude these expenses from our non-GAAP measures primarily because management does not consider them as part of our target operating model. We believe that the use of non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity and helps investors compare actual results to our long-term target operating model goals. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods; however, non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, gross margin, operating income, operating margin, the effective tax rate, net income or EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP.
