Ingram Micro Reports Third Quarter 2006 Results

Worldwide Sales Increase 8 Percent on Solid Demand

European Sales and Operating Income Hit Third-Quarter Records

SANTA ANA, Calif., Oct. 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM), the world's largest technology distributor, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2006, which ended Sept. 30, 2006.

Worldwide sales for the third quarter were $7.51 billion, an 8-percent increase over the $6.96 billion posted in the year-ago period.

Third-quarter net income was $58.5 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, which includes stock-based compensation expense of $6.5 million or approximately $0.03 per diluted share related to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R).

In the prior-year period, net income based on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) was $48.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share. These results included major-program and integration costs of $7.2 million related to the company's outsourcing and optimization plan in North America and the integration of Tech Pacific, which the company acquired in November 2004. Last year's results also included a charge of $8.4 million related to the redemption of the company's outstanding senior subordinated notes and termination of related interest-rate swap agreements. Year-ago net income on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes these costs, was $60.0 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. In addition, financial results for the prior-year quarter were favorably impacted by a reduction in the 2005 effective tax rate from 31 percent in the first six months of the year to 29 percent for the year-to-date, as well as a benefit primarily related to the implementation of more efficient tax structures.

"The company delivered another solid quarter with revenue growth in all four regions and double-digit operating income growth in North America and Europe," said Gregory M. Spierkel, chief executive officer, Ingram Micro Inc. "In North America, we achieved a 164-basis-point operating margin, a testimony to the success of our strategic initiatives to profitably grow the business. Europe turned the corner after a highly competitive first half, delivering record third-quarter sales and operating income. Sales in Asia Pacific and Latin America grew 13 and eight percent, respectively."

Additional Third-Quarter Highlights

For more detail regarding the results outlined below, please refer to the financial statements and schedules attached to this news release or visit www.ingrammicro.com.

    Regional Sales
      -- North American sales were $3.37 billion (45 percent of total
         revenues), an increase of 9 percent versus the $3.09 billion reported
         in the year-ago quarter.
      -- European sales were $2.43 billion (32 percent of total revenues), an
         increase of 4 percent versus a year ago.  The translation impact of
         the relatively stronger European currencies had an approximate
         five-percentage point impact on comparisons to the prior year.
      -- Asia-Pacific sales were $1.36 billion (18 percent of total revenues),
         an increase of 13 percent versus the $1.21 billion reported in the
         year-ago quarter.
      -- Latin American sales were $349 million (5 percent of total revenues),
         an increase of 8 percent versus the $324 million reported in the
         year-ago quarter.

    Gross Margin

Gross margin in the 2006 third quarter was 5.40 percent, a decrease of 9 basis points versus the prior-year quarter, but an improvement of 10 basis points versus the second quarter of 2006.

    Operating Expenses
      -- Total operating expenses were $311.9 million, or 4.15 percent of
         revenues, versus $298.9 million, or 4.29 percent of revenues, in the
         year-ago quarter.  The results for the current quarter included
         $6.5 million of non-cash stock compensation expenses and
         approximately $3.7 million in incremental technology enhancement
         costs, which were not included in the prior-year results.  The
         combined effect of these items represented approximately 14 basis
         points of sales.
      -- For comparison purposes, non-GAAP operating expenses in the year-ago
         period, excluding the $7.2 million in major-program and integration
         costs, were $291.7 million, or 4.19 percent of revenues.

    Operating Income

Worldwide operating income was $93.8 million, or 1.25 percent of revenues, including the 14 basis point impact of non-cash stock compensation and technology enhancement expense items noted above, compared to $82.9 million or 1.19 percent of revenues in the year-ago quarter. For comparison purposes, non-GAAP operating income in the year-ago period, excluding major-program and integration costs was $90.1 million, or 1.30 percent of revenues.

The stock-based compensation expense associated with the adoption of SFAS 123R is presented as a separate reconciling amount in the company's segment reporting; therefore, this expense is included in the worldwide operating results but not in the operating results of the regions.

      -- North American operating income was $55.3 million, or 1.64 percent of
         revenues, versus $43.7 million, or 1.42 percent of revenues, in the
         year-ago quarter.  For comparison purposes, in the year-ago period,
         North American operating income on a non-GAAP basis, excluding major-
         program costs, was $48.5 million or 1.57 percent of revenues.
      -- European operating income was $23.6 million, or 0.97 percent of
         revenues, versus $21.0 million, or 0.90 percent of revenues, in the
         year-ago quarter.
      -- Asia-Pacific operating income was $16.9 million, or 1.24 percent of
         revenues, versus $13.9 million, or 1.15 percent of revenues, in the
         year-ago quarter.  For comparison purposes, in the year-ago period,
         Asia-Pacific operating income on a non-GAAP basis, excluding
         major-program and integration costs, was $16.4 million, or
         1.36 percent of revenues.
      -- Latin American operating income was $4.5 million, or 1.31 percent of
         revenues, versus $4.3 million, or 1.34 percent of revenues in the
         year-ago quarter.

    * Other income and expenses for the quarter were $12.6 million, versus
      $20.7 million in the year-ago period.  Other expenses in the prior year
      included a loss of $8.4 million on the redemption of the company's
      outstanding senior subordinated notes and termination of related
      interest-rate swap agreements.
    * Total depreciation and amortization was $15.2 million.
    * Capital expenditures were $13.2 million.

    Balance Sheet
    * The cash balance at the end of the quarter was $536 million, an increase
      of $211 million versus the end of 2005.  Total debt was $707 million, an
      increase of $102 million from year-end 2005.  Debt-to-capitalization, at
      21 percent, was consistent with the end of last year.
    * Inventory was $2.24 billion versus $2.21 billion at the end of last
      year.  Days of inventory outstanding were 29, two days higher than
      year-end, primarily reflecting the timing of product purchases and
      expected inventory build-up as the company prepares for the seasonally
      active fourth quarter.
    * Working capital days were 24, an increase of three days from year-end
      2005, reflecting an increase in days of inventory, as well as greater
      mix of consumer and retail sales.

"Strong operating performances in North America and Europe drove the quarter's results," said William D. Humes, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Ingram Micro Inc. "While many markets remain competitive, we were able to move third-quarter gross margin back to the 5.40 percent level. Our success in North America is a credit to the entire team -- sales growth was in excess of industry estimates with strong operating leverage -- and Europe saw some easing of market pressures and began to drive improvements in gross margin, delivering a 13-percent increase in operating income."

Nine-Month Period

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2006, worldwide sales were $22.50 billion, an 8 percent increase over the $20.85 billion reported a year ago. Regional sales were $9.91 billion for North America (an 11 percent increase versus the prior-year period); $7.52 billion for Europe, (an increase of one percent in U.S. dollars, to which the translation impact of weaker European currencies had a minor negative effect on comparisons to the prior year); $4.04 billion for Asia-Pacific (an increase of 12 percent); and $1.04 billion for Latin America (an increase of 15 percent).

Worldwide operating income for the nine-month period was $280.8 million, or 1.25 percent of revenues, versus $230.5 million, or 1.11 percent of revenues, reported a year ago. The current year-to-date results include $22.2 million of non-cash stock compensation expenses and approximately $8.1 million of incremental technology enhancement costs, which were not included in the prior-year results. The combined effect of these incremental items represents approximately 13 basis points of sales for the nine-month period. For comparison purposes, operating income on a non-GAAP basis excluding major-program costs of $31.0 million was $261.5 million, or 1.25 percent of revenues, in the prior-year period.

Nine-month net income on a GAAP basis was $174.0 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, compared to $132.5 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, a year ago. For comparison purposes, nine-month net income on a non-GAAP basis excluding major-program costs, integration costs and special items was $158.3 million or $0.97 per diluted share in the prior-year period.

Outlook for the Fourth Quarter

The following statements are based on the company's current expectations and internal forecasts. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially, as outlined in the company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

    For the fourth quarter 2006, ending Dec. 30, 2006, Ingram Micro expects:
    * Revenue of $8.40 billion to $8.65 billion.
    * Net income of $85 million to $92 million, or $0.50 to $0.54 per diluted
      share, which includes approximately $6.5 million or $0.03 per share for
      the effect of non-cash stock-based compensation expense in the fourth
      quarter 2006, as well as approximately $2.5 million or $0.01 per share
      in incremental costs for IT enhancements announced earlier this year.
      For comparison purposes, 2005 did not include these expenses.
    * Approximately 171 million weighted average shares outstanding and a
      28-percent effective tax rate.

"We expect solid year-over-year sales growth and a sequential increase reflecting seasonality in line with historical norms," said Spierkel. "We've made key strategic investments that have spurred our growth and extended our leadership position among the world's IT and CE distributors. Ingram Micro is stronger and more competitive than ever before in its history, with a talented team leading us toward a successful future."

Cautionary Statement for the Purpose of the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

The matters in this press release that are forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements about future revenues, sales levels, operating income, margins, stock-based compensation expense, integration costs, cost synergies, operating efficiencies, profitability, market share and rates of return, are based on current management expectations that involve certain risks which, if realized, in whole or in part, could cause such expectations to fail to be achieved and have a material adverse effect on Ingram Micro's business, financial condition and results of operations, including, without limitation: (1) intense competition, regionally and internationally, including competition from alternative business models, such as manufacturer-to-end-user selling, which may lead to reduced prices, lower sales or reduced sales growth, lower gross margins, extended payment terms with customers, increased capital investment and interest costs, bad debt risks and product supply shortages; (2) integration of our acquired businesses and similar transactions involve various risks and difficulties -- our operations may be adversely impacted by an acquisition that (i) is not suited for us, (ii) is improperly executed, or (iii) substantially increases our debt; (3) foreign exchange rate fluctuations, devaluation of a foreign currency, adverse governmental controls or actions, political or economic instability, or disruption of a foreign market, and other related risks of our international operations may adversely impact our operations in that country or globally; (4) we may not achieve the objectives of our process improvement efforts or be able to adequately adjust our cost structure in a timely fashion to remain competitive, which may cause our profitability to suffer; (5) our failure to attract new sources of profitable business from expansion of products or services or risks associated with entry into new markets, including geographies, products and services, could negatively impact our future operating results; (6) an interruption or failure of our information systems or subversion of access or other system controls may result in a significant loss of business, assets, or competitive information; (7) significant changes in supplier terms, such as higher thresholds on sales volume before distributors may qualify for discounts and/or rebates, the overall reduction in the amount of incentives available, reduction or termination of price protection, return levels, or other inventory management programs, or reductions in payment terms, may adversely impact our results of operations or financial condition; (8) termination of a supply or services agreement with a major supplier or product supply shortages may adversely impact our results of operations; (9) changes in, or interpretations of, tax rules and regulations may adversely affect our effective tax rates or we may be required to pay additional tax assessments; (10) we cannot predict with certainty, the outcome of the SEC and U.S. Attorney's inquiries; (11) if there is a downturn in economic conditions for an extended period of time, it will likely have an adverse impact on our business; (12) we may experience loss of business from one or more significant customers, and an increased risk of credit loss as a result of reseller customers' businesses being negatively impacted by dramatic changes in the information technology products and services industry as well as intense competition among resellers -- increased losses, if any, may not be covered by credit insurance or we may not be able to obtain credit insurance at reasonable rates or at all; (13) rapid product improvement and technological change resulting in inventory obsolescence or changes in demand may result in a decline in value of a portion of our inventory; (14) future terrorist or military actions could result in disruption to our operations or loss of assets, in certain markets or globally; (15) the loss of a key executive officer or other key employees, or changes affecting the work force such as government regulations, collective bargaining agreements or the limited availability of qualified personnel, could disrupt operations or increase our cost structure; (16) changes in our credit rating or other market factors may increase our interest expense or other costs of capital, or capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms to fund our working capital needs; (17) our failure to adequately adapt to industry changes and to manage potential growth and/or contractions could negatively impact our future operating results; (18) future periodic assessments required by current or new accounting standards such as those relating to long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and expensing of stock options may result in additional non-cash charges; (19) seasonal variations in the demand for products and services, as well as the introduction of new products, may cause variations in our quarterly results; and (20) the failure of certain shipping companies to deliver product to us, or from us to our customers, may adversely impact our results of operations.

Ingram Micro has instituted in the past and continues to institute changes to its strategies, operations and processes to address these risk factors and to mitigate their impact on Ingram Micro's results of operations and financial condition. However, no assurances can be given that Ingram Micro will be successful in these efforts. For a further discussion of significant factors to consider in connection with forward-looking statements concerning Ingram Micro, reference is made to Item 1A Risk Factors of Ingram Micro's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005; other risks or uncertainties may be detailed from time to time in Ingram Micro's future SEC filings.
