Fourth-Quarter Company and Business Segment Highlights

Services revenue represented 80% of the company's fourth-quarter 2014 total and declined 11%, reflecting declines in outsourcing, systems integration, and infrastructure services. On a constant currency basis, fourth quarter 2014 services revenue declined 8%. As a result of the lower revenue, fourth-quarter services gross profit margin declined to 17.5% from 21.9% a year ago.  Services operating profit margin declined to 3.9% from 9.8%.  Services backlog at December 31, 2014 was $4.8 billion, unchanged from the prior year. 

Technology revenue grew 1% from the prior-year fourth quarter or 3% on a constant currency basis. Fourth-quarter 2014 technology gross profit margin was 60.4% versus 61.4% a year ago. Technology operating profit margin was 36.3% compared to 40.6%.  This reflected the impact of higher investments in growth programs.

The company reported an overall fourth-quarter 2014 gross profit margin of 27.0% versus 31.7% in the year-ago quarter. Operating expenses (SG&A and R&D expenses) increased 2% from the year-ago period, reflecting increased investments in growth programs. The company reported a fourth-quarter 2014 operating profit of $82.4 million, or 9.1% of revenue, compared to fourth-quarter 2013 operating profit of $155.9 million, or 15.7% of revenue.

From a geographic perspective, U.S. and Canada revenue grew 6% in the fourth quarter driven by growth in the company's U.S. Federal business. International revenue declined 18% in the fourth quarter (14% on a constant currency basis) as growth in Latin America was offset by revenue declines in EMEA and Asia-Pacific.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, Unisys generated $106 million of cash from operations, including $22 million of pension contributions. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the company generated $141 million of cash from operations, including $45 million of pension contributions. Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $69 million compared with $48 million in the year-ago quarter.

Non-GAAP Information

Unisys reports its results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States.  However, in an effort to provide investors with additional perspective regarding the company's results as determined by GAAP, the company also discusses, in its earnings press release and/or earnings presentation materials, non-GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors.  Our management uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and assess operational alternatives.  These non-GAAP measures may include non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, and constant currency.

Our non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. (See GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations attached.)

(1)Constant currency - The company refers to growth rates at constant currency or adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the company's business performance from one period to another. Constant currency for revenue is calculated by retranslating current and prior period results at a consistent rate. This approach is based on the pricing currency for each country which is typically the functional currency. Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant currency rates will be higher or lower, respectively, than growth reported at actual exchange rates.

(2) Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share - The company recorded pension expense of $18.1 million and $23.2 million during the fourth quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively.  For the full years of 2014 and 2013, Unisys recorded pension expense of $73.2 million and $90.0 million, respectively. In an effort to provide investors with a perspective on the company's earnings without these charges, they are excluded from the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share calculations.

(3)Free cash flow - To better understand the trends in our business, we believe that it is helpful to present free cash flow, which we define as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. Management believes this measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from operating activities in excess of amounts required for reinvestment. Because of the significance of the company's pension funding obligations, free cash flow before pension funding is also provided.

BLUE BELL, Pa., January 29, 2015 - Unisys Corporation (NYSE: UIS) today reported fourth-quarter 2014 net income of $61.8 million or $1.24 per diluted share, including $18.1 million of pension expense. Excluding pension expense, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.60.  In the comparable period in 2013, the company reported diluted earnings per share of $2.37, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $2.82. Fourth-quarter 2014 revenue dec​lined 9% to $906 million from $996 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. On a constant currency basis, fourth-quarter 2014 revenue declined 6%.   

For the full year of 2014, Unisys reported net income of $44.0 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, which included $73.2 million of pension expense. Excluding pension expense, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $2.36.  In the comparable period in 2013, the company reported earnings of $2.08 per diluted share, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $3.87. Full-year 2014 revenue declined 3% to $3.36 billion from $3.46 billion in 2013. On a constant currency basis, full-year 2014 revenue declined 2%.

"Our U.S. & Canada team, particularly our U.S. Federal group, posted strong growth in the quarter, balancing weakness in some global markets," said Peter Altabef who joined the company as President and CEO on January 1, 2015.

Fourth-Quarter Company and Business Segment Highlights

Services revenue represented 80% of the company's fourth-quarter 2014 total and declined 11%, reflecting declines in outsourcing, systems integration, and infrastructure services. On a constant currency basis, fourth quarter 2014 services revenue declined 8%. As a result of the lower revenue, fourth-quarter services gross profit margin declined to 17.5% from 21.9% a year ago.  Services operating profit margin declined to 3.9% from 9.8%.  Services backlog at December 31, 2014 was $4.8 billion, unchanged from the prior year. 

Technology revenue grew 1% from the prior-year fourth quarter or 3% on a constant currency basis. Fourth-quarter 2014 technology gross profit margin was 60.4% versus 61.4% a year ago. Technology operating profit margin was 36.3% compared to 40.6%.  This reflected the impact of higher investments in growth programs.

The company reported an overall fourth-quarter 2014 gross profit margin of 27.0% versus 31.7% in the year-ago quarter. Operating expenses (SG&A and R&D expenses) increased 2% from the year-ago period, reflecting increased investments in growth programs. The company reported a fourth-quarter 2014 operating profit of $82.4 million, or 9.1% of revenue, compared to fourth-quarter 2013 operating profit of $155.9 million, or 15.7% of revenue.

From a geographic perspective, U.S. and Canada revenue grew 6% in the fourth quarter driven by growth in the company's U.S. Federal business. International revenue declined 18% in the fourth quarter (14% on a constant currency basis) as growth in Latin America was offset by revenue declines in EMEA and Asia-Pacific.

Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Highlights

In the fourth quarter of 2014, Unisys generated $106 million of cash from operations, including $22 million of pension contributions. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the company generated $141 million of cash from operations, including $45 million of pension contributions. Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2014 were $69 million compared with $48 million in the year-ago quarter. The company generated $37 million of free cash flow(3) in the fourth quarter of 2014 compared with free cash flow of $93 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Free cash flow before pension contributions was $59 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and $138 million in the year-ago quarter.  

Unisys made a total of $183 million in pension contributions in 2014 compared to $147 million of pension contributions in 2013.  For the full year of 2014, the company generated free cash flow before pension contributions of $92 million compared to $183 million in 2013.

At December 31, 2014, the company reported a cash balance of $494 million and total debt of $224 million.

Non-GAAP Information

Unisys reports its results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States.  However, in an effort to provide investors with additional perspective regarding the company's results as determined by GAAP, the company also discusses, in its earnings press release and/or earnings presentation materials, non-GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors.  Our management uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and assess operational alternatives.  These non-GAAP measures may include non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, and constant currency.

Our non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as substitutes for results determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. (See GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations attached.)

(1)Constant currency - The company refers to growth rates at constant currency or adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates to facilitate comparisons of the company's business performance from one period to another. Constant currency for revenue is calculated by retranslating current and prior period results at a consistent rate. This approach is based on the pricing currency for each country which is typically the functional currency. Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant currency rates will be higher or lower, respectively, than growth reported at actual exchange rates.

(2) Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share - The company recorded pension expense of $18.1 million and $23.2 million during the fourth quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively.  For the full years of 2014 and 2013, Unisys recorded pension expense of $73.2 million and $90.0 million, respectively. In an effort to provide investors with a perspective on the company's earnings without these charges, they are excluded from the non-GAAP diluted earnings per share calculations.

(3)Free cash flow - To better understand the trends in our business, we believe that it is helpful to present free cash flow, which we define as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. Management believes this measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from operating activities in excess of amounts required for reinvestment. Because of the significance of the company's pension funding obligations, free cash flow before pension funding is also provided.

Risks and uncertainties that could affect the company's future results include the company's ability to effectively anticipate and respond to volatility and rapid technological change in its industry; the company's ability to drive profitable growth in consulting and systems integration; the company's ability to profitably grow its outsourcing business; the company's ability to maintain and grow its technology business; the potential adverse effects of aggressive competition in the information services and technology marketplace; the company's ability to retain significant clients; the risks that the company's contracts may not be as profitable as expected or provide the expected level of revenues and that contracts with U.S. governmental agencies may subject it to audits, criminal penalties, sanctions and other expenses and fines; the risk that the company may face damage to its reputation or legal liability if its clients are not satisfied with its services or products; the performance and capabilities of third parties with whom the company has commercial relationships; the company's ability to attract, motivate and retain experienced and knowledgeable personnel in key positions; the company's significant pension obligations and potential requirements to make significant cash contributions to its defined benefit pension plans; the company's ability to continue to simplify its operations and provide services more cost efficiently; the adverse effects of global economic conditions; the risk that breaches of data security could expose the company to legal liability and could harm its business and reputation; the risks of doing business internationally when more than half of the company's revenue is derived from international operations; the company's ability to access capital and credit markets to address its liquidity needs; the potential for intellectual property infringement claims to be asserted against the company or its clients; the possibility that pending litigation could affect the company's results of operations or cash flow; the business and financial risk in implementing future dispositions or acquisitions; and the company's consideration of all available information following the end of the year and before the filing of the Form 10-K and the possible impact of this subsequent event information on its financial statements for the reporting period. Additional discussion of factors that could affect the company's future results is contained in its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
