CDW Corporation (NASDAQ:CDW), a leading multi-brand provider of information technology solutions to business, government, education and healthcare customers in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, today announced fourth quarter and year end 2021 results. CDW also announced the approval by its Board of Directors of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share, which is 25 percent higher than the prior year period, to be paid on March 10, 2022 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 25, 2022.

"Our strong fourth quarter and full year performance demonstrated the power of our business model with balance across customer end markets and our product and solutions portfolio, and reinforced the strength of our strategy," said Christine A. Leahy, president and chief executive officer, CDW. "I am extremely proud of the commitment, agility and resolve of our coworkers, who successfully helped our customers address their mission-critical IT and operational needs across the full IT solutions stack and lifecycle in a supply constrained environment."

"Strong operating results and successful execution on our capital allocation priorities, delivered a 21 percent increase in Non-GAAP net income per diluted share for 2021," said Albert J. Miralles, chief financial officer, CDW. "After financing $2.5 billion for the acquisition of Sirius in December of 2021, we will optimize the use of cash flow after paying dividends to focus on reducing debt to our net leverage target range of 2.5 to 3.0 times, which we expect to achieve by the end of 2022."

"We are excited to officially welcome over 2,500 Sirius coworkers to CDW, who will amplify our portfolio and our people. As our businesses come together in 2022, we expect to continue to outpace US IT market growth by 200 to 300 basis points on a consolidated, constant currency basis. We will continue to execute our strategy, invest in the business, and be laser-focused on meeting the needs of our more than 250,000 customers and remaining the partner of choice for more than 1,000 leading and emerging technology brands as the technology market continues to evolve," concluded Leahy.

Fourth Quarter of 2021 Highlights:

Total Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2021 were $5,537 million, compared to $4,956 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, an increase of 11.7 percent. This increase includes $197 million of Net sales from the acquisition of Sirius Computer Solutions, Inc. ("Sirius") which closed on December 1, 2021. The Net sales impact from the acquisition of Sirius is included in our Corporate, Small Business and Public segments. There were 63 and 62 selling days for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. On an average daily sales basis, Net sales growth increased 9.9 percent and Net sales growth on a constant currency average daily sales basis increased 9.6 percent. Currency impact to Net sales growth was driven by favorable translation of the Canadian dollar and British pound to US dollar. Fourth quarter Net sales performance, on an average daily sales basis, included:

Total Corporate segment Net sales of $2,324 million, 33.1 percent higher than 2020.

Total Small Business segment Net sales of $487 million, 30.9 percent higher than 2020.

Total Public segment Net sales of $2,027 million, 13.1 percent lower than 2020. Public results were driven by decreased Net sales to Government and Education customers of 34.9 percent and 9.0 percent, respectively. Net sales to Healthcare customers increased 19.9 percent.

Net sales for CDW's UK and Canadian operations, combined as "Other" for financial reporting purposes, of $699 million, 19.5 percent higher than 2020.

Gross profit was $976 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $881 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 10.8 percent. Gross profit margin was 17.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021 versus 17.8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020. Gross profit margin was positively impacted by an increase in the mix of net service contract revenue, primarily Software as a Service, increase in Net sales and related margins on professional services and the impact of Sirius' gross profit margin, but decreased from prior year due to lower product margin and overlapping higher margin configuration services in the prior year.

Total selling and administrative expenses, including advertising expense, were $636 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $549 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 16.0 percent. This increase was primarily driven by higher acquisition and integration costs, higher payroll expenses consistent with higher coworker count and higher performance-based compensation consistent with higher attainment against financial goals.

Operating income was $339 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $332 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 2.1 percent. Non-GAAP operating income was $425 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $376 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 12.9 percent. The Non-GAAP operating income margin was 7.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021 versus 7.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Net interest expense was $43 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $37 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 16.9 percent. The increase was primarily driven by additional interest expense from the $2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes issued on December 1, 2021 which were used to fund the acquisition of Sirius.

The effective tax rate was 25.1 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 19.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020, which resulted in tax expense of $72 million and $57 million, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to certain tax benefits incurred in the prior year with no similar activity in the current quarter and lower excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation during the current quarter.

Net income was $215 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $238 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing a decrease of 9.7 percent. Non-GAAP net income was $285 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $264 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 8.2 percent.

Weighted average diluted shares outstanding were 138 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 145 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Net income per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $1.57, compared to $1.65 for the fourth quarter of 2020, representing a decrease of 4.5 percent. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $2.08, compared to $1.82 for the fourth quarter of 2020, representing an increase of 14.0 percent.

This increase includes $197 million of Net sales from the acquisition of Sirius which closed on December 1, 2021. The Net sales impact from the acquisition of Sirius is included in our Corporate, Small Business and Public segments. Net sales growth on a constant currency basis increased 11.9 percent. Currency impact to Net sales growth was driven by favorable translation of the Canadian dollar and British pound to US dollar. Full year Net sales performance included:

Total Corporate segment Net sales of $8,180 million, 19.5 percent higher than 2020.

Total Small Business segment Net sales of $1,870 million, 33.9 percent higher than 2020.

Total Public segment Net sales of $8,184 million, 0.6 percent higher than 2020. Public results were driven by an increase in Net sales to Education and Healthcare customers of 18.8 percent and 12.8 percent, respectively. Net sales to Government customers decreased 27.6 percent.

Net sales for CDW's UK and Canadian operations, combined as "Other" for financial reporting purposes, of $2,587 million, 24.0 percent higher than 2020.

Gross profit was $3,569 million in 2021, compared to $3,210 million for 2020, representing an increase of 11.2 percent. Gross profit margin was 17.1 percent in 2021 versus 17.4 percent in 2020. Gross profit margin was positively impacted by an increase in the mix of net service contract revenue, primarily Software as a Service, increase in Net sales and related margins on professional services and the impact of Sirius' gross profit margin, but decreased from prior year due to lower product margin and overlapping higher margin configuration services in the prior year.

Total selling and administrative expenses were $2,150 million in 2021, compared to $2,031 million in 2020, representing an increase of 5.8 percent. This increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses consistent with higher Gross profit, higher coworker count and higher performance-based compensation consistent with higher attainment against financial goals, and acquisition and integration costs, partially offset by lower intangible asset amortization and lower bad debt expense.

Operating income was $1,419 million in 2021, compared to $1,179 million in 2020, representing an increase of 20.3 percent. Non-GAAP operating income was $1,645 million in 2021, compared to $1,405 million for 2020, representing an increase of 17.1 percent. The Non-GAAP operating income margin was 7.9 percent and 7.6 percent for 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Net interest expense was $151 million in 2021, compared to $155 million in 2020, representing a decrease of 2.6 percent. The decrease was primarily driven by lower effective interest rates in 2021 compared to 2020, partially offset by additional interest expense from the $2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes issued on December 1, 2021 which were used to fund the acquisition of Sirius.

The effective tax rate was 23.8 percent in 2021, compared to 21.3 percent in 2020, which resulted in tax expense of $309 million and $214 million, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to certain tax benefits incurred in the prior year with no similar activity in the current year and a less favorable tax rate impact of excess tax benefits on equity-based compensation.

Net income was $989 million in 2021, compared to $789 million in 2020, representing an increase of 25.4 percent. Net income for 2021 included a $36 million gain from the sale of an equity method investment and the prior year included a $27 million net loss on extinguishment of long-term debt as a result of the August 2020 senior notes refinancing. Non-GAAP net income was $1,119 million in 2021, compared to $954 million in 2020, representing an increase of 17.2 percent.

Weighted average diluted shares outstanding were 141 million in 2021, compared to 145 million in 2020. Net income per diluted share in 2021 was $7.04, compared to $5.45 in 2020, representing an increase of 29.2 percent. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share in 2021 was $7.97, compared to $6.59 in 2020, representing an increase of 20.9 percent.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Non-GAAP operating income excludes, among other things, charges related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, equity-based compensation and related payroll taxes, and acquisition and integration expenses. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of Net sales. Non-GAAP income before income taxes and Non-GAAP net income exclude, among other things, charges related to acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, and the associated tax effects of each. Net sales growth on a constant currency basis is defined as Net sales growth excluding the impact of foreign currency translation on Net sales compared to the prior period.

Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating income margin, Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income, Non-GAAP net income per diluted share and Net sales growth on a constant currency basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance or financial condition that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP.

CDW believes these measures provide analysts, investors and management with helpful information regarding the underlying operating performance of CDW's business, as they remove the impact of items that management believes are not reflective of underlying operating performance. CDW uses these measures to evaluate period-over-period performance as management believes they provide a more comparable measure of the underlying business. Certain non-GAAP financial measures are also used to determine certain components of performance-based compensation.

CDW's annual targets are provided on a non-GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled, such as currency impacts or interest rates, or reliably predicted because they are not part of CDW's routine activities, such as refinancing activities or acquisition and integration expenses.

The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable most comparable US GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP measures used by CDW may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
