Stamford, Conn., January 28, 2003 - Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI) today reported
fourth quarter and full year 2002 performance in line with previous guidance and
the generation of significant cash flow from continuing operations.
In providing an overview of the company's financial performance
Chairman and CEO Michael J. Critelli noted, "We are very pleased with the
performance of our core business during the fourth quarter and the full-year. We
met earnings guidance and generated approximately $682 million in free cash
flow, excluding special items. Our strong cash flow and reduced Capital Services
investments enabled us to make a $339 million pre-tax cash contribution to our
pension plans during the quarter. Overall, the underlying strength of our core
business gave us the ability to continue to pursue new opportunities, invest for
the future, and grow despite the lingering political and economic uncertainty in
the global marketplace."
For the fourth quarter 2002, revenue increased seven percent to $1.16
billion from $1.09 billion in 2001. Excluding special items, pro forma income
from continuing operations was $152.5 million and pro forma diluted earnings per
share from continuing operations were 64 cents. Including special items, income
from continuing operations was $18.2 million dollars or eight cents per diluted
share.
For the full year 2002, revenue grew seven percent to $4.41 billion
from $4.12 billion in 2001. Excluding special items, pro forma income from
continuing operations was $572.0 million and pro forma diluted earnings per
share were $2.37. Including special items, full year net income was $475.8
million or $1.97 per diluted share.
Special items include charges to continuing operations related to the
company's Capital Services business and a non-cash, after-tax credit to
discontinued operations of approximately $38 million or 16 cents per diluted
share, due to the favorable resolution of certain contingent liabilities
associated with the previous sale of two businesses, Colonial Pacific Leasing
Corporation in 1998 and Atlantic Mortgage & Investment Corporation in 2000.
"We took a number of steps to transition the Capital Services business
in the fourth quarter," explained Chairman and CEO Michael J. Critelli. "First,
we liquidated about $225 million of financing assets. Second, we have begun a
strategic analysis of our existing portfolio to develop the best asset
disposition strategy. Next, we decided to stop active pursuit of, and growth in,
long-term financing transactions, including postal financing. Originating
profitable Capital Services investments increasingly requires complex
transactions of very long duration which leave little flexibility to restructure
or transfer those assets prior to maturity. To help position us for growth and
to maintain our financial flexibility, going forward we will not seek to
originate these types of long-term financial commitments."
"And finally, in light of our new strategic direction as well as the
accelerating deterioration of the U.S. airline industry, we increased our credit
loss reserves by taking a non-cash pre-tax charge of $115 million or 30 cents
per diluted share during the quarter. This charge was in addition to the
previously announced, non-cash pre-tax charge of $98 million or 26 cents per
diluted share, to write down investments in commercial aircraft leases with US
Airways and United Airlines."
Excluding cash flows primarily associated with the pension contribution
and severance payments related to a previously announced restructuring, free
cash flow from continuing operations for the year was approximately $682
million. Including these payments, free cash flow for the year was approximately
$278 million, as further detailed in the attached table. During the quarter, the
company repurchased approximately 1.5 million of its shares outstanding, at a
net cost of $50 million, bringing the company's full-year share repurchase total
to approximately 7.9 million shares at a net cost of $300 million. In the fourth
quarter the Board of Directors also authorized the repurchase of up to $300
million of the company's common stock over the next 12 to 24 months.
Demonstrating its confidence in the company's continued strong cash
flow generation, the board of directors of the company has approved an increase
in the dividend on common stock to an annualized rate of $1.20 per share. This
is the twenty-first consecutive year that the company has increased its dividend
on common stock.
Mr. Critelli added, "For Pitney Bowes, 2002 was a year in which we met
our financial targets while building momentum to produce long-term profitable
growth. Our fourth quarter performance was driven by the strong market
acceptance of our technologically advanced DM line of networked mailing systems
in the US, the increased demand for our global mailing systems in the UK and
Canada, and strong contributions resulting from the acquisitions of Secap and
PSI. During the year, we implemented a number of strategic initiatives to
enhance our positioning for future growth including acquisitions, investments in
technology, infrastructure and processes, and the reduction of our Capital
Services business."
The Global Mailing Segment includes worldwide revenue and related
expenses from the sale, rental and financing of mail finishing, mail creation
and shipping equipment, related supplies and services, presort mail services,
postal payment solutions, small business solutions and software, plus mail and
package tracking and tracing capability at the desktop. In the fourth quarter,
Global Mailing revenue and operating profit both increased nine percent when
compared with the prior year. Excluding the revenue from the acquisitions of
Secap SA and PSI Group Inc., Global Mailing revenue increased four percent.
Global Mailing in the U.S. has grown its market share in meters on a
year-over-year basis and has continued to benefit from the placement of new
networked digital mailing systems and good demand for its mail creation
products. The company's digital mailing system line was further enhanced during
the quarter by the launch of the revolutionary flagship system DM1000TM, which
can process up to 260 mail pieces per minute, as well as offering premium mail
services through its IntellilinkTM technology.
Outside of the U.S., Global Mailing experienced double-digit revenue
growth, supported by improved performance in the UK, Canada, and Australia,
where the DM SeriesTM was launched and strong performance from Secap SA.
Excluding the revenue from Secap SA, Global Mailing's international revenue grew
eight percent. This revenue growth was achieved despite lower revenue in Germany
and several other European countries, where demand for mailing equipment has
continued to be slow in a post meter migration environment, and where the
company has not yet launched its new DM SeriesTM.
The Enterprise Solutions Segment includes Pitney Bowes Management
Services (PBMS) and Document Messaging Technologies (DMT). Revenue from PBMS
includes facilities management contracts for advanced mailing, reprographic,
document management and other value-added services to large enterprises. Revenue
from DMT includes sales, service and financing of high speed, software-enabled
production mail systems, sorting equipment, incoming mail systems, electronic
statement, billing and payment solutions, and mailing software. For the quarter,
the Enterprise Solutions segment reported revenue growth of two percent and
operating profit growth of 16 percent when compared with the prior year. We are
taking a series of actions within this segment to enhance its ability to grow
despite external conditions. For example, the company is diversifying its
customer base away from financial and legal markets, as indicated by the recent
contract with the U.S General Services Administration (GSA). During the quarter,
PBMS signed an agreement with the GSA that will make a broad array of enhanced
mail and document management services available to federal agencies, including
high-level on-site or off-site screening of suspicious packages and testing for
dangerous contents.
PBMS reported revenue growth of four percent to $251.5 million when
compared with the prior year while operating profit declined 14 percent. PBMS
continued to improve its competitive position and generate strong growth in new
written business, particularly in the higher value document management services.
This growth was partially offset by the contraction of large enterprise
accounts, especially in the financial services and legal sectors. Operating
profit was adversely impacted by ongoing investments in product technology and
infrastructure to improve margins and revenue, especially in Europe, and the
costs associated with acquiring and ramping up new accounts.
DMT reported revenue of $66.5 million for the quarter, a decrease of
six percent from the prior year, while operating profit increased substantially.
Though DMT revenue improved relative to the prior quarter, businesses continued
to delay large capital spending decisions, which in turn slowed demand for our
high-speed, software-enabled production mail equipment and mail processing
software. On-going cost reduction programs, initiated earlier in the year,
resulted in a substantial increase in operating profit over the prior year.
Support services revenue increased during the quarter while sales revenue
shifted to more of a rental model, which we believe will provide a more stable
revenue stream over time.
Total Messaging Solutions, the combined results of the Global Mailing
and Enterprise Solutions segments, reported a seven percent increase in revenue
and a nine percent increase in operating profit.
The Capital Services Segment includes primarily asset- and fee-based
income generated by financing or arranging transactions of critical large-ticket
customer assets and the strategic financing of third-party equipment. Revenue
for the quarter increased ten percent and pro forma operating profit increased
16 percent. During the quarter, the company stopped originating financing for
non-core assets and liquidated about $225 million of financing assets that it
had held for sale to investors. The company anticipates that it will liquidate
most of the remaining $195 million of similar finance assets by year-end and
will transition out of other non-core financing assets over time when it is
economically prudent to do so.
Given the assumption that weak economic conditions will persist during
at least the first half of 2003, the company expects revenue growth in the range
of two percent to four percent for the first quarter and full year 2003. During
the year, the company anticipates it will undertake restructuring initiatives
related to realigned infrastructure requirements and reduced manufacturing needs
for digital equipment. It is expected that the after-tax cost of these
restructuring initiatives will be roughly $100 million over a two-year period
and be recorded as the various initiatives take effect. Excluding the impact of
these restructuring initiatives, the company expects pro forma first quarter
diluted earnings per share from continuing operations will range between 53
cents and 55 cents, and pro forma full year 2003 diluted earnings per share from
continuing operations will range between $2.38 and $2.45.
Mr. Critelli concluded, "We are excited about our opportunities to
enhance shareholder and customer value in 2003 and beyond. Our solid performance
in our core business last year was driven by our focus on three strategic
imperatives: enhancing the core business, streamlining our infrastructure, and
executing our growth strategies. We feel these three areas are essential for
increasing customer and shareholder value and we will maintain an unwavering
focus on them in 2003 as well. When combined, all of the actions emanating from
our strategic imperatives should help us build the momentum to be a bigger,
better and stronger Pitney Bowes today and in the future."
Fourth quarter 2002 consolidated revenue included $617.9 million from
sales and business services, up five percent from $589.9 million in the fourth
quarter of 2001; $393.8 million from rentals and financing, up nine percent from
$362.1 million; and $153.1 million from support services, up ten percent from
$138.8 million. Income from continuing operations for the period was $18.2
million, or eight cents per diluted share. Excluding special items in the fourth
quarter of 2002 and 2001, income from continuing operations was $152.5 million,
or 64 cents per diluted share compared to fourth quarter 2001 income from
continuing operations of $140.0 million, or 57 cents per diluted share. Fourth
quarter 2002 net income was $56.2 million, or 24 cents per diluted share
compared to $90.2 million, or 37 cents per diluted share in 2001. Fourth quarter
2002 consolidated net income included income of $38.0 million from discontinued
operations, or 16 cents per diluted share, while fourth quarter 2001 net income
included a loss of $10.3 million from discontinued operations, or four cents per
diluted share.
For the full year 2002, revenue was $4.41 billion, up seven percent
from $4.12 billion in 2001. Income from continuing operations, before special
items in both periods, was $572.0 million, or $2.37 per diluted share in 2002,
compared to $556.3 million, or $2.25 per diluted share in 2001. Special items
for the full year 2002 included a non-cash pre-tax charge of $98 million to
write down investments in commercial aircraft leases with US Airways and United,
and $115 million non-cash, pre-tax charge to increase credit loss reserves
primarily related to additional airline leasing assets. Special items for the
full year 2001 included a non-cash pre-tax charge of $268 million associated
with the company's plan to transition to the next generation of digital,
networked mailing technology, and a pre-tax charge of $116 million related to
restructuring plan initiatives. There was also a pre-tax charge of approximately
$24 million associated with the settlement of a class action lawsuit related to
lease upgrade pricing, and a $362 million net pre-tax gain as a result of
settling a lawsuit with Hewlett-Packard Company. Full year net income for 2002
included income of $38 million from discontinued operations, or 16 cents per
diluted share compared to a $26 million loss, or 10 cents per diluted share in
2001. As a result, full year net income for 2002 was $475.8 million, or $1.97
per diluted share compared to $488.3 million, or $1.97 per diluted share in
2001.
As noted above, the board of directors declared a quarterly cash
dividend of the company's common stock of 30 cents per share, payable March 12,
2003, to stockholders of record February 21, 2003. The board also declared a
quarterly cash dividend of 53 cents per share on the company's $2.12 convertible
preference stock, payable April 1, 2003, to stockholders of record March 14,
2003, and a quarterly cash dividend of 50 cents per share on the company's 4%
convertible cumulative preferred stock, payable May 1, 2003 to stockholders of
record April 15, 2003.
