Fiscal Second Quarter 2024 Information

Won 32 manufacturing programs during the quarter representing $255 million in annualized revenue when fully ramped into production.
Purchased $17.6 million of our shares at an average price of $94.39 per share under our repurchase programs, leaving $38.1 million available under our current $50.0 million authorization.

Todd Kelsey, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Plexus delivered fiscal second quarter revenue of $967 million and non-GAAP EPS of $0.94, each of which met the top end of our guidance. Non-GAAP operating margin of 4.2% met our expectation entering the quarter. In addition, we generated free cash flow of $65 million, a particularly strong result."

Mr. Kelsey continued, "For the fiscal second quarter, our team won 32 new manufacturing programs worth $255 million in annualized revenue. Capitalizing on the value created by our differentiated service offering and superior execution, our go-to-market organization is winning significant new outsourcing opportunities and capturing market share in support of sustaining our industry-leading revenue growth."

Mr. Kelsey commented, "We are guiding fiscal third quarter revenue of $960 million to $1.00 billion, non-GAAP operating margin of 5.2% to 5.6% and non-GAAP EPS of $1.22 to $1.37. We believe our revenue growth is in the early stages of inflecting higher, benefiting from robust demand within our Aerospace and Defense market sector, gradually recovering semiconductor capital equipment demand and new program ramps that are mitigating inventory correction headwinds in our Healthcare/Lifesciences and Industrial market sectors. For the fiscal third quarter, our non-GAAP operating margin excludes approximately $6.5 million of restructuring charges associated with realigning manufacturing capabilities to best support long-term customer needs and also excludes approximately $6.2 million of stock-based compensation expense."

Patrick Jermain, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "The $65 million of free cash flow generated during the fiscal second quarter significantly exceeded our net income and our expectations. Continued progress on our working capital initiatives contributed to this strong performance, resulting in fiscal second quarter cash cycle of 91 days, 10 days favorable to our expectations and sequentially lower by four days. Aided by the improvements in our cash cycle, return on invested capital for the fiscal second quarter was 9.9%, or 170 basis points above our weighted average cost of capital. We have generated $33 million of free cash flow through the first six months of fiscal 2024 and, with further progress expected on our working capital initiatives, we now anticipate delivering approximately $100 million of free cash flow in fiscal 2024. Finally, we repurchased $17.6 million of our shares during the fiscal second quarter. We expect to execute the remaining $38.1 million of our current authorization during the second half of fiscal 2024, creating additional shareholder value."

Mr. Kelsey concluded, "We continue to anticipate a strong finish to fiscal 2024 with expansion in revenue and non-GAAP operating margin each quarter as well as robust free cash flow generation, positioning us for further momentum into fiscal 2025. Supporting this outlook is the previously highlighted strength in certain market sectors and subsectors, new program ramps, improving utilization of our engineering team and the benefits from recent restructuring actions."

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

Plexus provides non-GAAP supplemental information, such as ROIC, economic return and free cash flow because such measures are used for internal management goals and decision-making, and because they provide management and investors with additional insight into financial performance. In addition, management uses these and other non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS, to provide a better understanding of core performance for purposes of period-to-period comparisons. Plexus believes that these measures are also useful to investors because they provide further insight by eliminating the effect of non-recurring items that are not reflective of continuing operations. For additional information on non-GAAP measures, please refer to the attached Non-GAAP Supplemental Information tables.

ROIC and Economic Return

ROIC for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was 9.9%. Plexus defines ROIC as tax-effected annualized adjusted operating income divided by average invested capital over a three-quarter period for the second fiscal quarter. Invested capital is defined as equity plus debt and operating lease obligations, less cash and cash equivalents. Our weighted average cost of capital for fiscal 2024 is 8.2%. ROIC for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 less our weighted average cost of capital resulted in an economic return of 1.7%.

Free Cash Flow

Plexus defines free cash flow as cash flows provided by operations less capital expenditures. For the three months ended March 30, 2024, cash flows provided by operations were $87.8 million and capital expenditures were $22.9 million, which resulted in free cash flow of $64.9 million.

(1)	Includes a reclassification in the presentation of advanced payments from customers reflected in prior period amounts. As of April 1, 2023, the impact of this reclassification was an increase in the Company's days in advanced payments and a reduction in annualized cash cycle by 22 days.
(2)	Plexus calculates cash cycle as the sum of days in accounts receivable, days in contract assets and days in inventory, less days in accounts payable and days in advanced payments.
