OTHER SELECTED FINANCIAL RESULTS

  • Revenue - Sales declined 2 percent, including $53 million of unfavorable foreign currency impact. Sales increased 2 percent in constant currency. These results reflect 5 percent growth in North America driven by increased product sales. Overall product sales declined 2 percent due to currency headwinds and weakness in Europe and Africa and Latin America, while Services declined 1 percent primarily due to unfavorable currency impact and lower iDEN revenue.
  • Operating margin - GAAP operating margin was 18.6 percent of sales in the second quarter of 2015, compared with 9.9 percent in the second quarter of 2014; non-GAAP operating margin was 19.0 percent of sales, compared with 14.4 percent in the second quarter of 2014. These results were driven by $69 million in lower operating expenses compared with the second quarter of 2014, due largely to cost reduction and simplification initiatives across all categories as well as lower pension expense and a stronger dollar.
  • Taxes - The second quarter of 2015 GAAP effective tax rate was 30 percent. This compares with a tax rate of 20 percent in the second quarter of 2014, which included $30 million of net tax benefit associated with the net reduction in previously unrecognized tax benefits. The second quarter of 2015 non-GAAP tax rate was 35 percent, compared with a tax rate of 25 percent in the second quarter of 2014. The full-year non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 33 percent. The full-year cash tax rate3 is expected to be approximately 15 percent.
  • Cash flow - The company generated $140 million in operating cash from continuing operations during the quarter, reflecting an increase of $22 million over the prior year. Free cash flow was $92 million in the quarter. The increase was largely driven by improved earnings and lower pension contributions.
  • Cash and cash equivalents - The company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 billion and a net debt position of approximately $300 million4. The company repurchased $285 million of common stock in the second quarter of 2015 and paid $72 million in cash dividends.
  • Backlog - The company grew sequential backlog for the third straight quarter, ending at $6 billion. These results were primarily due to growth in North America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East regions.

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH SILVER LAKE

Silver Lake, the global leader in technology investing, intends to invest $1 billion in Motorola Solutions to accelerate the company's growth of smart public safety solutions and services businesses through strategic partnerships, investments, and acquisitions. As part of the partnership with Silver Lake, Egon Durban and Greg Mondre, managing partners of Silver Lake, will be appointed to Motorola Solutions' board of directors when the transaction closes, which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2015.

COMPANY ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO COMMENCE TENDER OFFER

Motorola Solutions also announced today that its board of directors approved proceeding with a tender offer to repurchase up to $2 billion of common stock (subject to a customary increase if the tender offer is oversubscribed). The company intends to commence a modified "Dutch Auction" tender offer at a specified price range to be determined. The company expects to commence the tender offer on or about August 7.

The company will fund the tender offer with a combination of existing cash on the company's balance sheet and a portion of the proceeds from the $1 billion strategic investment by Silver Lake.

After these actions, the company will maintain robust liquidity and a strong balance sheet and investment grade credit ratings.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

  • Third quarter 2015 - Motorola Solutions expects a revenue decline of 1 to 3 percent compared with the third quarter of 2014. This assumes a $50 million unfavorable currency impact5, which translates to revenue of flat to 2 percent in constant currency. The company expects non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $0.68 to $0.73 per share.
  • Full-year 2015 - The company revenue outlook remains unchanged as revenue is expected to be flat to down 2 percent compared to 2014. This outlook translates to revenue growth of 1 to 3 percent in constant currency. The company still expects non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $3.20 to $3.40 per share.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In addition to the GAAP results included in this presentation, Motorola Solutions also has included non-GAAP measurements of results. The company has provided these non-GAAP measurements to help investors better understand its core operating performance, enhance comparisons of core operating performance from period to period and allow better comparisons of operating performance to its competitors. Among other things, management uses these operating results, excluding the identified items, to evaluate performance of the businesses and to evaluate results relative to certain incentive compensation targets. Management uses operating results excluding these items because it believes this measurement enables it to make better period-to-period evaluations of the financial performance of core business operations. The non-GAAP measurements are intended only as a supplement to the comparable GAAP measurements and the company compensates for the limitations inherent in the use of non-GAAP measurements by using GAAP measures in conjunction with the non-GAAP measurements. As a result, investors should consider these non-GAAP measurements in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, measurements of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Highlighted items: The company has excluded the effects of highlighted items (and any reversals of highlighted items recorded in prior periods) from its non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measurements because the company believes that these historical items do not reflect expected future operating earnings or expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's current operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance.

Share-based compensation expense: The company has excluded share-based compensation expense from its non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measurements. Although share-based compensation is a key incentive offered to the company's employees and the company believes such compensation contributed to the revenue earned during the periods presented and also believes it will contribute to the generation of future period revenues, the company continues to evaluate its performance excluding share-based compensation expense primarily because it represents a significant non-cash expense. Share-based compensation expense will recur in future periods.

Intangible assets amortization expense: The company has excluded intangible assets amortization expense from its Non-GAAP operating expenses and net earnings measurements, primarily because it represents a non-cash expense and because the company evaluates its performance excluding intangible assets amortization expense. Amortization of intangible assets is consistent in amount and frequency but is significantly affected by the timing and size of the company's acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to the company's revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to the company's future period revenues as well. Intangible assets amortization expense will recur in future periods.

Details of the above items and reconciliations of the non-GAAP measurements to the corresponding GAAP measurements can be found at the end of this press release.
