Unisys Corporation (NYSE:UIS) today reported second-quarter 2009 net income of $38.1 million, or 10 cents a share, compared with a net loss of $14.0 million, or 4 cents a share, in the second quarter of 2008. The company's revenue declined 16% to $1.13 billion compared with revenue of $1.34 billion in the year-ago quarter. Foreign exchange rates had an approximately 8 percentage-point negative impact on revenue in the quarter. On a constant currency basis, revenue declined 8 percent in the quarter.
"We made encouraging progress during the quarter on the priorities of our turnaround program," said Unisys Chairman and CEO Ed Coleman. "First and foremost, we were profitable. In the difficult economic environment, we were able to triple our operating profit and deliver net income. This progress was driven by our ongoing actions to concentrate our resources more effectively and reduce our cost base. While we have much more work to do, this is an important first step toward our goal of becoming a consistently and predictably profitable company.
"Also during the quarter we sharpened our value propositions and solution portfolio in our focused market areas," Coleman said. "We announced exciting new solutions for secure cloud computing, outsourcing and ClearPath mainframe technology. These new solutions demonstrate our continued innovation and investment in services and products to help our clients address critical needs within their organizations."
During the quarter the company launched private debt exchange offers designed to strengthen its balance sheet and address $300 million of debt maturing in March 2010. As of yesterday, approximately $230 million of the 2010 notes have been tendered in the exchange, leaving approximately $70 million still outstanding. As previously announced, the exchange offers also involve the company's other outstanding senior notes. The exchange offers expire at midnight tonight.
Overall Second-Quarter Highlights
Revenue in the United States declined 5 percent to $542 million, as growth in the company's U.S. federal government business was offset by declines in its commercial business. Revenue in international markets declined 24 percent to $587 million. On a constant currency basis, international revenue declined 10 percent in the quarter.
Unisys reported an overall gross profit margin of 23.9 percent, up from 22.7 percent in the year-ago quarter. The company's overall operating profit margin increased to 6.7 percent compared with 1.7 percent a year ago, reflecting significant reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Second-Quarter Business Segment Results
Customer revenue in the company's services segment declined 14 percent compared with the year-ago quarter. Foreign exchange rates had an approximately 8 percentage-point negative impact on services revenue in the quarter. Gross profit margin in the services business improved to 21.0 percent compared with 19.2 percent a year ago, while services operating margin improved to 7.9 percent compared with 3.3 percent a year ago, reflecting the benefits of expense reduction actions.
Services orders showed substantial declines from a year ago, but were up sequentially from the first quarter of 2009. Services order backlog at June 30, 2009 was $5.9 billion.
Customer revenue in the company's technology segment declined 31 percent from the second quarter of 2008, reflecting continued weak demand for enterprise server technology in the current economic environment. Foreign exchange rates had an approximately 5 percentage-point negative impact on technology revenue in the quarter. Gross profit margin in the technology business improved to 40.4 percent compared with 39.2 percent in the year-ago quarter, while technology operating margin declined to (5.4) percent compared with (3.7) percent in the second quarter of 2008.
Cash Flow Highlights
Unisys generated $48 million of cash from operations in the quarter compared with $52 million in the year-ago quarter.
