"The SYNNEX team is very proud to announce our 100th quarter of consecutive profitability. In our second quarter of fiscal 2012, I am pleased with our continued execution and performance in a mixed demand environment," stated Kevin Murai, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Within our distribution business we achieved good growth in the commercial business, partially offset by a dampened retail market. We continue to achieve success in signing new business contracts in our GBS division which we expect to contribute to margin expansion in the coming quarters."

Fiscal 2012 Second Quarter Highlights:

-- Distribution: Revenue was $2.44 billion, a decrease of 0.8% over the prior fiscal year quarter. Distribution income before non-operating items, income taxes and noncontrolling interest grew to $56.4 million, or 2.31% of distribution revenue compared with $50.5 million, or 2.05% in the prior fiscal year quarter. Fiscal 2012 second quarter results included certain customer business which transitioned year-over-year from a gross revenue business to a net fee for service logistics relationship.

-- Global Business Services (GBS): Revenue was $47.7 million, an increase of 23.1% over the prior fiscal year quarter. GBS income before non-operating items, income taxes and non-controlling interest was $2.6 million, or 5.40% of GBS revenue compared with $3.7 million, or 9.56% in the prior fiscal year quarter. The fiscal 2011 second quarter SG&A included a $1.3 million credit adjustment to contingent M&A consideration offset in part by $185 thousand in direct acquisition and integration expenses. Fiscal 2012 second quarter includes continued incremental expenses related to investing for accelerated growth in the business.

-- The trailing fiscal four quarters ROIC increased to 11.7% for the fiscal second quarter of 2012, up from 10.3% in the prior year fiscal second quarter.

-- The cash conversion cycle was 44 days.

-- The debt to capitalization ratio was 19%.

-- Depreciation and amortization were $4.2 and $2.1 million, respectively.

Fiscal 2012 Third Quarter Outlook:

The following statements are based on the Company’s current expectations for the fiscal 2012 third quarter. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.

"Our guidance reflects strong execution in our distribution business given the more muted outlook for the continuing economic recovery and the ongoing year-over-year transition of certain customer gross revenue to a net fee for service logistics relationship," Mr. Murai continued. "While earnings in the prior year third quarter included some exceptional items, including a large benefit to GBS SG&A for a contingent M&A credit, this year’s third quarter outlook reflects a more normalized profit margin for our distribution segment and continued progress in our GBS segment."

-- Revenue is expected to be in the range of $2.55 billion to $2.65 billion.

-- Net income is expected to be in the range of $34.4 million to $35.7 million.

-- Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.91 to $0.95.
