What changed from last quarter

  • New guidance: Full-year Standalone Adjusted EPS and operating cash flow guidance added; the prior release gave only revenue and Standalone Adjusted EBITDA. Source

Results and growth drivers

  • Revenue rose 3% to $727 million: Revenue was $727 million, up 3% from $703 million, and near the high end of the provided range. Excluding OEM Security, revenue rose 6%. Source

  • Adjusted EPS rose 8%: GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.14, down 71%; Standalone Adjusted diluted EPS was $0.52, up 8%. Source

Segments and continuing operations

  • Continuing operations now Products and Solutions: From the third quarter, continuing operations reflect the Products and Solutions segment, with revenue adjusted to treat ADI as an external customer and to include allocated corporate costs.
  • Sales grew across all channels: Revenue excluding OEM Security was $694 million, up 6%, with growth across all sales channels and product categories from volume and pricing. Source
  • ADI shown as discontinued operations: Historical ADI results are presented as discontinued operations, so they sit outside the continuing-operations figures in this release. Source

  • R&D rose for new launches: R&D expense rose $4 million, which management linked to investment in new product launches intended to drive future growth. Source
