TYCO ELECTRONICS RAISES FISCAL THIRD QUARTER OUTLOOK

PEMBROKE, Bermuda -  16 June, 2009 - Tyco Electronics Ltd. (NYSE: TEL; BSX: TEL) has revised upward its outlook for the fiscal third quarter ending 26 June, 2009.  As a reminder, this outlook excludes the company's Wireless Systems segment which will be reported as a discontinued operation beginning with Tyco Electronics' fiscal third quarter earnings release.

 

  • The company currently expects sales of $2.45 billion to $2.55 billion, versus the previous guidance range of $2.35 billion to $2.45 billion. The increase in revenue is due to improved sales in the consumer-related end markets served by the Electronic Components segment, additional project revenue in the Undersea Telecommunications segment and foreign currency translation.   
  • GAAP income from operations is now expected to be $25 million to $55 million, which includes restructuring charges of approximately $60 million. Adjusted operating income is expected to be $85 million to $115 million, versus prior guidance of $40 million to $70 million. The improvement in adjusted operating income versus prior guidance is due to increased revenue in the Electronic Components and Undersea Telecommunications segments, as well as accelerated execution on restructuring and other cost actions.  

  • GAAP earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations are now expected to be $0.00 to $0.07, including restructuring charges of approximately $0.10 per share. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations are expected to be $0.10 to $0.17, compared to prior guidance of $0.01 to $0.06.
