Trimble Reports Second Quarter 2014 Results

Trimble announced financial results for the second quarter of 2014.

Second Quarter 2014 Financial Highlights

  • Second quarter 2014 revenue of $642.2 million was up 11 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Engineering and Construction revenue was $368.1 million, up 17 percent, with growth across all major product categories. Field Solutions revenue was $114.5 million, down 1 percent due to weakness in sales of agriculture products, partially offset by an increase in Geographic Information System (GIS) sales. Mobile Solutions revenue was $122.9 million, up 6 percent due primarily to double-digit growth in sales of transportation and logistics solutions. Advanced Devices revenue was $36.8 million, up 17 percent. Revenue in all major regions grew, with the largest percentage increases in Europe and Asia Pacific. 
  • GAAP operating income was $97.1 million, up 50 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2013. GAAP operating margin was 15.1 percent of revenue as compared to 11.3 percent of revenue in the second quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP operating income of $148.9 million was up 24 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP operating margin was 23.2 percent of revenue as compared to 20.9 percent of revenue in the second quarter of 2013, driven primarily by growth in non-GAAP gross margin to 58.5 percent of revenue. GAAP gross margin was 55.2 percent of revenue.
  • GAAP net income was $77.8 million, up 43 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Diluted GAAP earnings per share were $0.29 as compared to diluted GAAP earnings per share of $0.21 in the second quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP net income of $120.8 million was up 23 percent as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Diluted non-GAAP earnings per share were $0.45 as compared to diluted non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.38 in the second quarter of 2013. The GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates were 21 percent.
  • Operating cash flow in the quarter was $131.2 million. Year-to-date operating cash flow was $214.6 million, an increase of 25 percent over the prior year.

Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, Trimble repurchased shares pursuant to a Rule 10b-5(1) plan under its open $100 million authorization. As of close of trading August 4, the company has repurchased approximately 1.37 million shares for a total amount of $43.2 million.  

"The results for the second quarter reflect record revenue and margin performance," said Steven W. Berglund, Trimble's president and chief executive officer. "Almost all of the revenue growth was organic, which reflects generally improved market conditions outside of agriculture. Although we currently anticipate agriculture to remain a challenging market through the rest of the year, we expect our other markets will more than offset that effect. The construction industry, in particular, is accelerating adoption of our technology as the benefits become better understood."
