MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – November 5, 2015 – Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ: SYMC) today reported the results of its second quarter of fiscal year 2016, ended October 2, 2015.
Michael A. Brown, president and CEO, said, “With a security-focused Symantec, we continue to increase our momentum as the global leader in cybersecurity. We drove growth in Enterprise Security for the second consecutive quarter, partly due to a 10 percent revenue increase in Information Protection solutions including another record quarter for DLP. To set the stage for continued progress, we will deliver more than a dozen new products and services over the next three quarters.”
Thomas Seifert, executive vice president and CFO, said, “This was an important quarter for Symantec. On October 3, we completed the operational separation as planned, and Symantec and Veritas are now running as standalone businesses. The close of the Veritas sale is on track to occur by the end of Q3 and we have received board authorization to accelerate the return of $2 billion to shareholders, beginning with a $500 million accelerated share repurchase.”

*Note: The impact from our information management business is included in 3Q16 GAAP EPS, but excluded from 3Q16 non-GAAP EPS. In addition, we are currently unable to estimate any potential gain on the proposed sale of our information management business and it has therefore been excluded from our guidance.
Symantec's Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share to be paid on December 16, 2015 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 23, 2015. The ex-dividend date will be November 19, 2015.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: This press release contains statements regarding our projected financial and business results, capital allocation plans and our proposed divestiture of our Veritas business, which may be considered forward-looking within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws. These include statements regarding the anticipated closing of the Veritas sale and product development plans, as well as projections of future revenue, operating margin and earnings per share, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, stock-based compensation, and restructuring, separation and transition charges. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from results expressed or implied in this press release. Such risk factors include those related to: the satisfaction of the conditions to closing of the Veritas divestiture; general economic conditions; risks related to the proposed divestiture of Veritas; maintaining customer and partner relationships; the anticipated growth of certain market segments, particularly with regard to security and storage; the competitive environment in the software industry; changes to operating systems and product strategy by vendors of operating systems; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; the timing and market acceptance of new product releases and upgrades; the successful development of new products and integration of acquired businesses, and the degree to which these products and businesses gain market acceptance. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements in this press release. We assume no obligation, and do not intend, to update these forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments. Additional information concerning these and other risks factors is contained in the Risk Factors sections of our Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2015.
USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Our results of operations have undergone significant change due to the impact of litigation accruals, stock-based compensation, restructuring, transition, and separation matters, charges related to the amortization of intangible assets, and certain other income and expense items that management considers unrelated to Symantec’s core operations. To help our readers understand our past financial performance and our future results, we supplement the financial results that we provide in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management team uses these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Symantec’s operating results, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to our quarterly earnings release and which can be found, along with other financial information, on the investor relations page of our website at: http://www.symantec.com/invest.

(1) Management refers to growth rates adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We compare the percentage change in the results from one period to another period in order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed. To exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective prior periods (or, in the case of deferred revenue, converted into United States dollars at the actual exchange rate in effect at the end of the prior period).

SYMANTEC CORPORATION
Explanation of Non-GAAP Measures
Appendix A
Objective of non-GAAP measures: We believe our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with corresponding GAAP financial measures, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating performance for the reasons discussed below. Our management team uses these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s operating results, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons of the Company’s performance to prior periods and to our peers and that investors benefit from an understanding of the non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.
Stock-based compensation: Consists of expenses for employee stock options, restricted stock units, performance based awards and our employee stock purchase plan determined in accordance with the authoritative guidance on stock-based compensation. When evaluating the performance of our individual business units and developing short- and long-term plans, we do not consider stock-based compensation charges. Our management team is held accountable for cash-based compensation, but we believe that management is limited in its ability to project the impact of stock-based compensation and accordingly is not held accountable for its impact on our operating results. In addition, for comparability purposes, we believe it is useful to provide a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes stock-based compensation in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate the comparison of our results to the results of our peer companies. Furthermore, unlike cash-based compensation, the value of stock-based compensation is determined using complex formulas that incorporate factors, such as market volatility, that are beyond our control.

Amortization of intangible assets: When conducting internal development of intangible assets, accounting rules require that we expense the costs as incurred. In the case of acquired businesses, however, we are required to allocate a portion of the purchase price to the accounting value assigned to intangible assets acquired and amortize this amount over the estimated useful lives of the acquired intangible assets. The acquired company, in most cases, has itself previously expensed the costs incurred to develop the acquired intangible assets, and the purchase price allocated to these assets is not necessarily reflective of the cost we would incur in developing the intangible asset. We eliminate these amortization charges from our non-GAAP operating results to provide better comparability of pre- and post-acquisition operating results and comparability to results of businesses utilizing internally developed intangible assets.
Restructuring, separation, and transition: We have engaged in various restructuring, separation, and transition activities over the past several years that have resulted in costs associated with severance, facilities, transition, and other related costs. Separation and other related costs consist of consulting and disentanglement costs incurred to separate our security and information management businesses into standalone companies, as well as costs to prune selected product lines that do not fit either the Company’s growth or margin objectives. Transition and other related costs consist of consulting charges associated with the implementation of new Enterprise Resource Planning systems. Each restructuring, separation, and transition activity has been a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives or circumstances, and each has differed from the others in terms of its operational implementation, business impact and scope. We do not engage in restructuring, separation, or transition activities in the ordinary course of business. While our operations previously benefited from the employees and facilities covered by our various restructuring and separation charges, these employees and facilities have benefited different parts of our business in different ways, and the amount of these charges has varied significantly from period to period. We believe that it is important to understand these charges and we believe that investors benefit from excluding these charges from our operating results to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of current operating performance and comparisons to past operating performance.

SYMC Reports Second Quarter 2016 Results – CFO Commentary
A reconciliation for all non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this commentary to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in our financial tables that accompany our earnings press release available on http://investor.symantec.com/investor-relations/events-calendar/.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2016 Results
|
●
|
SYMC revenue was $1.5 billion, flat sequentially and down 1% year-over-year in constant currency, within our guidance range.
|
|
●
|
Non-GAAP operating margin was 28.1%, at the high end of our guidance range.
|
|
●
|
Non-GAAP net income was $301 million and EPS was $0.44, at the high end of our guidance range.
|
Q2 Fiscal 2016 Commentary
Revenue was $1.5 billion, down 1% year-over-year in constant currency. Year-over-year constant currency revenue growth of 1% in Enterprise Security and 2% in Information Management was offset by an 8% constant currency revenue decline in Consumer Security.
Non-GAAP operating income was $421 million and non-GAAP operating margin was 28.1%, up 50 basis points year-over-year in constant currency and at the high end of our guidance range, driven by lower spend as we aligned costs with lower revenue.
Our non-GAAP tax rate was 26.0% compared to our guided rate of 24.0%.
Non-GAAP net income was $301 million and non-GAAP EPS was $0.44, calculated using 687 million fully diluted shares.
Q2 Fiscal 2016 Segment Results – Enterprise Security
Enterprise Security segment revenue was $485 million, up 1% year-over-year in constant currency, driven by growth in data loss prevention and endpoint security.
|
●
|
Data loss prevention experienced strong year-over-year constant currency growth of 37%.
|
|
●
|
Endpoint security posted solid year-over-year constant currency growth of 2%.
|
|
●
|
This was offset by weakness in endpoint management, mail, and data center security.
|
Enterprise Security non-GAAP operating income was $50 million, up $20 million sequentially, driven by increased revenue and lower sales and marketing spend.
Q2 Fiscal 2016 Segment Results – Consumer Security
Consumer Security segment revenue was $420 million, down 8% year-over-year in constant currency, within our annual range of down 5% to 8% as we continued to shift away from unprofitable retail channels.
Consumer Security non-GAAP operating income was $232 million, down $25 million from the prior year primarily due to lower revenue.
Q2 Fiscal 2016 Segment Results – Information Management
Information Management segment revenue was $593 million, up 2% year-over-year in constant currency compared to the prior year mainly due to double-digit growth in NetBackup Appliances.
|
●
|
NetBackup Appliances year-over-year growth accelerated to 38% in constant currency.
|
|
●
|
NetBackup Software posted solid year-over-year constant currency growth of 4%.
|
Information Management non-GAAP operating income was $139 million, up $4 million from the prior quarter driven by lower sales and marketing spend and an increase in revenue.
Cash Flow Statement and Balance Sheet
Deferred Revenue at the end of the quarter was $3.27 billion, flat year-over-year in constant currency.
Cash flow from operations was $134 million. We made separation payments of $64 million and restructuring payments of $26 million during the September quarter.
Capital expenditures were $71 million.
Debt as of the end of the quarter was $1.74 billion. The principal balance of our 2.75% Senior Notes due September 15, 2015 matured and was settled by a cash payment of $350 million in the three months ended October 2, 2015.
During the September quarter we returned $262 million to shareholders. $102 million was in the form of cash dividends and $160 million was related to share repurchases.
Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter was $3.4 billion, down $527 million compared to the end of the first quarter of 2016.
Outlook
The following statements concerning SYMC are forward-looking and actual results could differ materially from current expectations. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in Risk Factors in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2015 and as otherwise discussed in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
Our full year fiscal 2016 results will be impacted by several factors:
|
●
|
Our revenue, non-GAAP operating margin, and non-GAAP EPS guidance for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2016 represent standalone Symantec security and do not include Veritas, formerly our Information Management segment.
|
|
●
|
The impact from Veritas will be included in GAAP EPS as discontinued operations for the third quarter. This does not include any potential gain on the proposed sale of our information management business as we are currently unable to estimate the potential gain.
|
|
●
|
We are lowering second half fiscal 2016 revenue outlook as our enterprise security sales pipeline is growing, but not by enough to compensate for our Q1 shortfall.
|
|
●
|
Similarly, we are adjusting our non-GAAP operating margin guidance.
|
|
●
|
Selling the Veritas business will result in transaction service agreements (TSA) and stranded costs, which are overhead expenses once shared with Veritas.
|
|
●
|
These expenses include IT-related infrastructure and services, real estate, litigation, and to a lesser extent headcount.
|
|
●
|
On an annualized basis, we expect to have approximately $130 million in TSAs and stranded costs.
|
|
●
|
Our TSA costs, which represent about a third of the total, will need to be in place over the next year as we support the Veritas business’s transition.
|
|
●
|
While these TSAs are a headwind to our operating margin, Veritas will reimburse us for these costs in discontinued operations.
|
|
●
|
Starting now and through fiscal year 2017, we expect to take aggressive action to right-size our cost structure by this amount of $130 million.
|
|
●
|
This will help us move toward our 30% operating margin target.
|
|
●
|
Soon after we close the Veritas sale, we will provide historical financial statements that consolidate Information Management into discontinued operations.
|
|
●
|
We expect our historical first and second quarter fiscal 2016 Symantec security operating income to be lower than what we are reporting today for Enterprise Security and Consumer Security operating income. The decrease in operating income is due to standalone Symantec security recognizing unallocated corporate overhead expenses, or stranded costs, that were once shared with Veritas.
|
Q3 FY2016
|
●
|
Our December 2015 quarter guidance assumes an exchange rate of $1.13.
|
|
●
|
We expect Symantec security revenue for our third fiscal quarter to be between $890 and $920 million.
|
|
●
|
For our Consumer Security segment, we expect revenue to decline year-over-year within the range of 6% and 8% in constant currency.
|
|
●
|
We expect revenue for our Enterprise Security segment to grow approximately 0.5% year-over-year in constant currency.
|
|
●
|
We expect non-GAAP operating margin to be between 25.5% and 27.5%.
|
|
●
|
Excluding the impact from stranded costs and TSAs, our operating margin guidance would have been 30.0% at the midpoint.
|
|
●
|
We expect third fiscal quarter non-GAAP EPS in the range of 22¢ to 25¢.
|
|
●
|
Our share count of 665 million accounts for the impact of the $500 million Accelerated Share Repurchase and a separate share buyback of approximately $125 million.
|
|
●
|
Without the Veritas sale, we estimate that the Information Management business would have contributed an additional 23¢ per share to non-GAAP EPS.
|
Q4 FY2016
|
●
|
Our March 2016 guidance assumes an exchange rate of $1.13.
|
|
●
|
We expect fourth fiscal quarter revenue to be between $885 and $915 million.
|
|
●
|
For our Consumer Security segment, we expect our revenue guidance to remain unchanged from a year-over-year decline in a range of between 5% and 8% in constant currency.
|
|
●
|
We expect revenue from our Enterprise Security segment to grow 1% year-over-year in constant currency.
|
|
●
|
We expect non-GAAP operating margin to be between 26.5% and 28.5%, resulting in non-GAAP EPS in the range of 24¢ to 27¢.
|
|
●
|
Excluding the impact from stranded costs and TSAs, our non-GAAP operating margin guidance would have been 30.3% at the midpoint.
|
|
●
|
Our guidance assumes a share count of 653 million after accounting for a $125 million buyback in the fourth quarter.
|
|
Use of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Information:
|
| |
Our results of operations have undergone significant change due to the impact of litigation accruals, stock-based compensation, restructuring, transition and separation matters, charges related to the amortization of intangible assets, and certain other income and expense items that management considers unrelated to the Company’s core operations. To help our readers understand our past financial performance and our future results, we supplement the financial results that we provide in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(2) Management refers to growth rates adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We compare the percentage change in the results from one period to another period in order to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective prior periods.
