PITTSBURGH, Aug. 3, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Wesco International (NYSE: WCC), a leading provider
of business-to-business distribution, logistics services and supply
chain solutions, announces its results for the second quarter of
2023.
"The power of our portfolio and mix-shift into higher-growth
markets is clear in our record second quarter sales.
Continued strong growth and record sales in our CSS and UBS
businesses more than offset a quarterly drop in our EES business
that was largely the result of unprecedented supply chain
rebalancing in the electrical industry and select weakness in
certain sectors including commercial construction and manufactured
structures. Our long-term secular growth drivers remain
intact and are reflected in the continued sales growth in utility,
data centers, security, and industrial sectors. On the
strength of our industry leading customer value proposition, strong
cross-sell execution continued in the quarter, and we're raising
our sales synergy target from $1.8
billion to $2.0 billion," said
John Engel, Chairman, President and
CEO.
Mr. Engel continued, "Lead times for most product categories
have returned to 2019 levels. The extraordinary supply chain
disruptions and customer purchase patterns driven by the pandemic
over the last few years are now correcting with the rapid reduction
in supplier lead times. Against these supply chain
rebalancing conditions, our gross margins remain healthy and
stable. While economic conditions remain positive, we did see
pockets of underperformance in certain end markets served by our
EES business."
Mr. Engel added, "Even with increased overall sales in the
second quarter, our free cash flow generation of $293 million was strong and brought us into
positive territory for the half of fiscal 2023 - back in line with
our expectations. During the second quarter we reduced
inventories and paid down debt. Our financial leverage now
stands at 2.8x, near the mid-point of our target range and at the
lowest level since the Anixter acquisition in June 2020.
Given our anticipated free cash flow generation in the second half
of fiscal 2023, we stand in a good position to use that cash flow
to increase value to our shareholders."
Mr. Engel concluded, "We remain confident in and focused on the
transformational steps we are taking to improve our digital
capabilities, capture market share, and create value for all our
stakeholders. We continue to invest in our digital
transformation plan, and we are working to deliver digital
capabilities to benefit our customers and supplier partners that
will be game-changing. We have already taken steps to address
the supply chain re-balancing in our EES business through a
$25 million annualized cost reduction
set of actions, taken in June that will begin to benefit our second
half. Given EES results in the second quarter, we are
revising our full year outlook, that still delivers record sales,
EBITDA and free cash flow at the midpoint. The power of
Wesco's scale, industry-leading positions, and expanded portfolio
of products, services and solutions positions us to capture the
benefits of enduring secular growth trends as well anticipated
increased infrastructure investments in North America. We are
committed to and remain confident in our ability to deliver the
financial objectives presented at our Investor Day including
long-term margin expansion, profit growth and cash generation
targets."
2023 Outlook Update:
Wesco is now expecting reported net sales growth of 5%-7% versus
6%-9% prior largely driven by market weakness in certain sectors of
the Electrical and Electronic Solutions business unit. EBITDA
margins are forecast to be 7.8%-8.0% versus 8.1%-8.4% prior
primarily due to the lower sales range. At the mid-point of the
guidance range, adjusted EBITDA is approximately $1.8 billion versus $1.9
billion prior. Earnings per share is now forecast to be
$15.00-$16.00. The company's free cash flow outlook is
$500-$700
million.
The following are results for the three months ended
June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30,
2022:
- Net sales were $5.7 billion for
the second quarter of 2023 compared to $5.5
billion for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 4.8%,
reflecting price inflation, volume growth (driven in part by
secular demand trends and the execution of our cross-sell program),
and an improving supply chain. Organic sales for the second quarter
of 2023 grew by 2.8% as the acquisition of Rahi Systems, which
closed in November of 2022, positively impacted reported net sales
by 2.7%, while fluctuations in foreign exchange rates negatively
impacted reported net sales by 0.7%. Backlog at the end of the
second quarter of 2023 increased 6% compared to the end of the
second quarter of 2022. Sequentially, backlog declined slightly by
approximately 2%.
- Cost of goods sold for the second quarter of 2023 was
$4.5 billion compared to $4.3 billion for the second quarter of 2022, and
gross profit was $1.2 billion for
both periods. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 21.6%
and 21.7% for the second quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The slight decline in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for
the second quarter of 2023 primarily reflects a shift in sales mix.
The negative impact of the shift in sales mix was partially offset
by our continued focus on a strategy of pricing products and
services to realize the value that we provide to our customers as a
result of our broad portfolio of product and service offerings,
global footprint and capabilities ("value-driven pricing").
- Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were
$831.7 million, or 14.5% of net
sales, for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $772.9 million, or 14.1% of net sales, for the
second quarter of 2022. SG&A expenses for the second quarter of
2023 and 2022 include merger-related and integration costs of
$10.9 million and $13.4 million, respectively. SG&A expenses
for the second quarter of 2023 also include $9.8 million of restructuring costs. Adjusted for
merger-related and integration costs and restructuring costs,
SG&A expenses were $811.0
million, or 14.1% of net sales, for the second quarter of
2023 and $759.5 million, or 13.9% of
net sales, for the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted SG&A
expenses for the second quarter of 2023 reflect higher salaries and
benefits due to wage inflation and increased headcount, including
the impact of the Rahi Systems acquisition, as well as an increase
in volume-related costs such as commissions and transportation.
Increased costs to operate our facilities and higher employee
expenses due to increased headcount also contributed to higher
SG&A expenses. In addition, digital transformation initiatives
contributed to higher expenses in the second quarter of 2023,
including those related to professional services and consulting
fees. These increases were partially offset by the realization of
integration cost synergies and a reduction to incentive
compensation expense.
- Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter of 2023
was $46.9 million compared to
$45.8 million for the second quarter
of 2022, an increase of $1.1 million.
In connection with an integration initiative to review the
Company's brand strategy, certain legacy trademarks are migrating
to a master brand architecture, which resulted in $0.8 million and $3.7
million of accelerated amortization expense for the second
quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
- Operating profit was $363.8
million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to
$370.7 million for the second quarter
of 2022, a decrease of $6.9 million,
or 1.9%. Operating profit as a percentage of net sales was 6.3% for
the current quarter compared to 6.8% for the second quarter of the
prior year. Adjusted for the merger-related and integration costs,
restructuring costs, and accelerated trademark amortization
described above, operating profit was $385.3
million, or 6.7% of net sales, for the second quarter of
2023. Adjusted for merger-related and integration costs, and
accelerated trademark amortization, operating profit was
$387.8 million, or 7.1% of net sales,
for the second quarter of 2022.
- Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2023 was
$98.8 million compared to
$68.5 million for the second quarter
of 2022. The increase reflects higher borrowings and an increase in
variable interest rates.
- Other non-operating expense for the second quarter of 2023 was
$0.8 million compared to $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2022.
- The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was 27.2%
compared to 26.5% for the second quarter of 2022. The current
quarter and the comparable prior year period both reflect discrete
income tax benefits resulting from the exercise and vesting of
stock-based awards.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $178.7 million for the second quarter of 2023
compared to $206.3 million for the
second quarter of 2022. Adjusted for merger-related and integration
costs, restructuring costs, accelerated trademark amortization
expense, and the related income tax effects, net income
attributable to common stockholders was $194.3 million for the second quarter of 2023.
Adjusted for merger-related and integration costs, accelerated
trademark amortization expense, and the related income tax effects,
net income attributable to common stockholders was $218.9 million for the second quarter of 2022.
Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders decreased
11.2% year-over-year.
- Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2023 was
$3.41, based on 52.4 million diluted
shares, compared to $3.95 for the
second quarter of 2022, based on 52.2 million diluted shares.
Adjusted for merger-related and integration costs, restructuring
costs, accelerated trademark amortization expense, and the related
income tax effects, earnings per diluted share for the second
quarter of 2023 was $3.71. Adjusted
for merger-related and integration costs, accelerated trademark
amortization expense, and the related income tax effects, earnings
per diluted share for the second quarter of 2022 was $4.19. Adjusted earnings per diluted share
decreased 11.5% year-over-year.
- Operating cash flow for the second quarter of 2023 was an
inflow of $317.6 million compared to
an outflow of $132.6 million for the
second quarter of 2022. Free cash flow for the second quarter of
2023 was $293.2 million, or 141% of
adjusted net income. The net cash inflow in the second quarter of
2023 was primarily driven by changes in working capital, including
a decrease in inventories of $149.9
million, partially offset by an increase in trade accounts
receivable of $29.4 million, due to
the sequential increase in net sales compared to the prior
quarter.
- Financial leverage ratio was 2.8 as of June 30, 2023, an improvement of 2.9 and at the
lowest level since the Anixter merger in June of 2020.
The following are results for the six months ended June 30,
2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022:
- Net sales were $11.3 billion for
the first six months of 2023 compared to $10.4 billion for the first six months of 2022,
an increase of 8.2%, reflecting price inflation, volume growth
(driven in part by secular demand trends and the execution of our
cross-sell program), and an improving supply chain. Organic sales
for the first six months of 2023 grew by 6.6% as the acquisition of
Rahi Systems positively impacted reported net sales by 2.7%, while
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates negatively impacted reported
net sales by 1.1%.
- Cost of goods sold for the first six months of 2023 was
$8.8 billion compared to $8.2 billion for the first six months of 2022,
and gross profit was $2.5 billion and
$2.2 billion, respectively. As a
percentage of net sales, gross profit was 21.8% and 21.5% for the
first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Gross profit as a
percentage of net sales for the first six months of 2023 reflects
our continued focus on value-driven pricing. Additionally,
pass-through of inflationary costs, along with the continued
momentum of our gross margin improvement program, contributed to
the increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales.
- SG&A expenses were $1,649.4
million, or 14.6% of net sales, for the first six months of
2023, compared to $1,491.0 million,
or 14.3% of net sales, for the first six months of 2022. SG&A
expenses for the first six months of 2023 and 2022 include
merger-related and integration costs of $30.4 million and $39.0
million, respectively. SG&A expenses for first six
months of 2023 also include $9.8
million of restructuring costs. Adjusted for merger-related
and integration costs and restructuring costs, SG&A expenses
were $1,609.2 million, or 14.3% of
net sales, for the first six months of 2023 and $1,452.0 million, or 13.9% of net sales for the
first six months of 2022. The increase in adjusted SG&A
expenses for the first six months of 2023 compared to the first six
months of 2022 reflects the same factors discussed above.
- Depreciation and amortization for the first six months of 2023
was $91.3 million compared to
$92.8 million for the first six
months of 2022, a decrease of $1.5
million. In connection with an integration initiative to
review the Company's brand strategy, certain legacy trademarks are
migrating to a master brand architecture, which resulted in
$0.8 million and $9.0 million of accelerated amortization expense
for the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
- Operating profit was $710.2
million for the first six months of 2023 compared to
$654.7 million for the first six
months of 2022, an increase of $55.5
million, or 8.5%. Operating profit as a percentage of net
sales was 6.3% for the first six months of 2023 and 2022. Adjusted
for the merger-related and integration costs, restructuring costs,
and accelerated trademark amortization described above, operating
profit was $751.2 million, or 6.7% of
net sales, for the first six months of 2023. Adjusted for
merger-related and integration costs, and accelerated trademark
amortization, operating profit was $702.7
million, or 6.7% of net sales, for the first six months of
2022.
- Net interest expense for the first six months of 2023 was
$193.8 million compared to
$132.1 million for the first six
months of 2022. The increase reflects higher borrowings and an
increase in variable interest rates.
- Other non-operating expense for the first six months of 2023
was $10.9 million compared to
$2.3 million for the first six months
of 2022. Net benefits of $0.7 million
and $7.1 million associated with the
non-service cost components of net periodic pension (benefit) cost
were recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Due to
fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against certain foreign currencies,
a net foreign currency exchange loss of $13.2 million was recognized for the first six
months of 2023 compared to a net loss of $7.1 million for the first six months of
2022.
- The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2023 was
22.9% compared to 22.6% for the first six months of 2022. The
current six month period and the comparable prior year period both
reflect discrete income tax benefits resulting from the exercise
and vesting of stock-based awards. The first six months of 2022
also reflects a discrete income tax benefit resulting from a
reduction to the valuation allowance recorded against foreign tax
credit carryforwards.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $361.5 million for the first six months of 2023
compared to $373.2 million for the
first six months of 2022. Adjusted for merger-related and
integration costs, restructuring costs, accelerated trademark
amortization expense, and the related income tax effects, net
income attributable to common stockholders was $391.3 million for the first six months of 2023.
Adjusted for merger-related and integration costs, accelerated
trademark amortization expense, and the related income tax effects,
net income attributable to common stockholders for the first six
months of 2022 was $408.6 million.
Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders decreased
4.2% year-over-year.
- Earnings per diluted share for the first six months of 2023 was
$6.90, based on 52.4 million diluted
shares, compared to $7.15 for the
first six months of 2022, based on 52.2 million diluted shares.
Adjusted for merger-related and integration costs, restructuring
costs, accelerated trademark amortization expense, and the related
income tax effects, earnings per diluted share for the first six
months of 2023 was $7.47. Adjusted
for merger-related and integration costs, accelerated trademark
amortization expense, and the related income tax effects, earnings
per diluted share for the first six months of 2022 was $7.82. Adjusted earnings per diluted share
decreased 4.5% year-over-year.
- Operating cash flow for the first six months of 2023 was an
inflow of $62.2 million compared to
an outflow of $304.5 million for the
first six months of 2022. Free cash flow for the first six months
of 2023 was $27.3 million, or 7% of
adjusted net income. The net cash inflow in the first six months of
2023 was primarily driven by net income of $389.6 million and non-cash adjustments to net
income totaling $139.8 million, which
were primarily comprised of depreciation and amortization,
stock-based compensation expense, and deferred income taxes.
Operating cash flow was negatively impacted by net changes in
assets and liabilities of $467.2
million, which were primarily comprised of an increase in
trade accounts receivable of $162.9
million and a decrease in accounts payable of $78.6 million due to the timing of receipts from
customers and payments to suppliers, respectively. Net operating
cash flow was also negatively impacted by $73.9 million from an increase in inventories.
Additionally, the payment of management incentive compensation
earned in 2022 resulted in a cash outflow in the first six months
of 2023, which was partially offset by the accrual of management
incentive compensation earned in the current year.
Segment Results
The Company has operating segments comprising three strategic
business units consisting of Electrical & Electronic Solutions
("EES"), Communications & Security Solutions ("CSS") and
Utility & Broadband Solutions ("UBS").
The Company incurs corporate costs primarily related to
treasury, tax, information technology, legal and other centralized
functions. Segment results include depreciation expense or other
allocations related to various corporate assets. Interest expense
and other non-operating items are either not allocated to the
segments or reviewed on a segment basis. Corporate expenses not
directly identifiable with our reportable segments are reported in
the tables below to reconcile the reportable segments to the
consolidated financial statements.
The following are results by segment for the three months ended
June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30,
2022:
- EES reported net sales of $2,200.3
million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to
$2,330.1 million for the second
quarter of 2022, a decrease of 5.6%. Organic sales for the second
quarter of 2023 declined by 4.7% as fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates negatively impacted reported net sales by 0.9%. The
decrease in organic sales compared to the prior year quarter
reflects downturns in the construction and manufactured structures
businesses, partially offset by price inflation and continued
momentum in our industrial business. In addition, a transfer of
certain customer accounts to the CSS segment negatively impacted
reported net sales for EES by approximately two percentage points.
Adjusted EBITDA was $189.0 million
for the second quarter of 2023, or 8.6% of net sales, compared to
$235.4 million for the second quarter
of 2022, or 10.1% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA decreased
$46.4 million, or 19.7%
year-over-year, primarily due to the decline in sales, a shift in
sales mix to lower margin business, and an increase in SG&A
expenses.
- CSS reported net sales of $1,850.9
million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to
$1,602.0 million for the second
quarter of 2022, an increase of 15.5%. Organic sales for the second
quarter of 2023 grew by 6.9% as the acquisition of Rahi Systems in
the fourth quarter of 2022 positively impacted reported net sales
by 9.4%, while fluctuations in foreign exchange rates negatively
impacted reported net sales by 0.8%. The increase in organic sales
compared to the prior year quarter reflects strong growth in our
network infrastructure and security solutions businesses, as well
as improvements in the global supply chain. The transfer of certain
customer accounts from the EES segment also positively impacted
reported net sales for CSS by approximately 3%. Adjusted EBITDA was
$179.5 million for the second quarter
of 2023, or 9.7% of net sales, compared to $150.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, or
9.4% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA increased $29.5 million, or 19.7% year-over-year. The
increase is primarily driven by sales growth and operating cost
leverage.
- UBS reported net sales of $1,694.3
million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to
$1,551.4 million for the second
quarter of 2022, an increase of 9.2%. Organic sales for the second
quarter of 2023 grew by 9.6% as fluctuations in foreign exchange
rates negatively impacted reported net sales by 0.4%. The increase
in organic sales compared to the prior year quarter reflects
significant price inflation, secular trends in the utility business
that are driving growth, and expansion in our integrated supply
business, partially offset by lower sales in our broadband business
due to certain customers depleting existing inventories and an
overall downturn in the broadband business, particularly in
Canada. Adjusted EBITDA was
$188.6 million for the second quarter
of 2023, or 11.1% of net sales, compared to $169.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, or
10.9% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA increased $19.6 million, or 11.6% year-over-year. The
increase is primarily driven by sales growth and gross margin
improvement.
The following are results by segment for the six months ended
June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30,
2022:
- EES reported net sales of $4,335.4
million for the first six months of 2023 compared to
$4,420.1 million for the first six
months of 2022, a decrease of 1.9%. Organic sales for the first six
months of 2023 declined by 0.6% as fluctuations in foreign exchange
rates negatively impacted reported net sales by 1.3%. The decrease
in organic sales reflects downturns in the construction and
manufactured structures businesses, partially offset by price
inflation and continued momentum in our industrial business. In
addition, a transfer of certain customer accounts to the CSS
segment negatively impacted reported net sales for EES by
approximately two percentage points. Adjusted EBITDA was
$372.0 million for the first six
months of 2023, or 8.6% of net sales, compared to $427.9 million for the first six months of 2022,
or 9.7% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $55.9 million, or 13.1% year-over-year, primarily
due to the decline in sales, a shift in sales mix to lower margin
business, and an increase in SG&A expenses.
- CSS reported net sales of $3,582.9
million for the first six months of 2023 compared to
$3,036.2 million for the first six
months of 2022, an increase of 18.0%. Organic sales for the first
six months of 2023 grew by 9.9% as the acquisition of Rahi Systems
positively impacted reported net sales by 9.4%, while fluctuations
in foreign exchange rates negatively impacted reported net sales by
1.3%. The increase in organic sales reflects strong growth in our
network infrastructure and security solutions businesses, as well
as the benefits of cross selling and improvements in supply chain
constraints. The transfer of certain customer accounts from the EES
segment also positively impacted reported net sales for CSS by
approximately 3%. Adjusted EBITDA was $335.0
million for the first six months of 2023, or 9.3% of net
sales, compared to $273.1 million for
the first six months of 2022, or 9.0% of net sales. Adjusted EBITDA
increased $61.9 million, or 22.7%
year-over-year. The increase primarily reflects the factors
impacting the overall business, as described above.
- UBS reported net sales of $3,349.1
million for the first six months of 2023 compared to
$2,959.4 million for the first six
months of 2022, an increase of 13.2%. Organic sales for the first
six months of 2023 grew by 13.7% as fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates negatively impacted reported net sales by 0.5%. The
increase in organic sales reflects significant price inflation,
secular trends in the utility business that are driving growth, and
expansion in our integrated supply business, partially offset by
lower sales in our broadband business due to certain customers
depleting existing inventories and an overall downturn in the
broadband business, particularly in Canada. Adjusted EBITDA was $376.3 million for the first six months of 2023,
or 11.2% of net sales, compared to $305.4
million for the first six months of 2022, or 10.3% of net
sales. Adjusted EBITDA increased $70.9
million, or 23.2% year-over-year. The increase is primarily
driven by sales growth and gross margin improvement.

successfully integrating the businesses of the companies, the
impact of increased interest rates or borrowing costs, failure to
adequately protect Wesco's intellectual property or successfully
defend against infringement claims, failure to execute Wesco's
environmental, social and governance (ESG) programs as planned,
disruption of information technology systems or operations, natural
disasters (including as a result of climate change), health
epidemics, pandemics and other outbreaks (such as the ongoing
COVID-19 pandemic, including any resurgences or new variants),
supply chain disruptions, geopolitical issues, such as the impact
of Russia's invasion of
Ukraine, including the impact of
sanctions or other actions taken by the U.S. or other countries
against Russia (as well as those
imposed on China), the increased
risk of cyber incidents and exacerbation of key materials
shortages, inflationary cost pressures, material cost increases,
demand volatility, and logistics and capacity constraints, which
may have a material adverse effect on the combined company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. All such
factors are difficult to predict and are beyond the company's
control. Additional factors that could cause results to differ
materially from those described above can be found in Wesco's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and Wesco's other reports filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") above, this
earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures.
These financial measures include organic sales growth, gross
profit, gross margin, earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted
EBITDA margin, financial leverage, free cash flow, adjusted
selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted income from
operations, adjusted operating margin, adjusted provision for
income taxes, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net
income, adjusted net income attributable to WESCO International,
Inc., adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders, and
adjusted earnings per diluted share. The Company believes that
these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors as they provide a
better understanding of our financial condition and results of
operations on a comparable basis. Additionally, certain non-GAAP
measures either focus on or exclude items impacting comparability
of results such as merger-related and integration costs,
restructuring costs, and the related income tax effect of such
items, allowing investors to more easily compare the Company's
financial performance from period to period. Management does not
use these non-GAAP financial measures for any purpose other than
the reasons stated above.

Note: Organic sales
growth is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales performance.
Organic sales growth is calculated by deducting the percentage
impact from acquisitions and divestitures for one year following
the respective transaction, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates
and number of workdays from the reported percentage change in
consolidated net sales. Workday impact represents the change in the
number of operating days period-over-period after adjusting for
weekends and public holidays in the United States; There was no
change in the number of workdays in the second quarter and first
six months of 2023 compared to the second quarter and first six
months of 2022.

amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the trailing twelve
months EBITDA before other non-operating expenses (income),
non-cash stock-based compensation expense, merger-related and
integration costs, and restructuring costs.

Note: Free cash flow is
a non-GAAP financial measure of liquidity. Capital expenditures are
deducted from operating cash flow to determine free cash flow. Free
cash flow is available to fund investing and financing activities.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the
Company paid for certain costs to integrate the acquired Anixter
business as well as certain restructuring costs. Such expenditures
have been added back to operating cash flow to determine free cash
flow for such periods. Our calculation of free cash flow may not be
comparable to similar measures used by other companies.
