We are off to a good start in 2015. Our first quarter came in line with our expectations, and we are executing on key elements of our
strategy. Notably, we are expanding our product offerings, scale and international reach with the pending acquisitions of both Pace and Active Video Networks. With respect to the second quarter 2015, we expect revenues will grow and will be in the
range of $1,270 million to $1,310 million, with adjusted net income per diluted share in the range of $0.53 to $0.58 and GAAP net income per diluted share in the range of $0.17 to $0.22, said Bob Stanzione, ARRIS Chairman and CEO.
Revenues in the first quarter 2015 of $1,215.2 million were down $9.8 million, or 1%, as compared to first quarter 2014 revenues of
$1,225.0 million. First quarter revenues were also down $48.2 million, or 4%, as compared to fourth quarter 2014 revenues of $1,263.4 million.
Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) in the first quarter 2015 was $0.44 per diluted share, as compared to $0.47 per diluted share
for the first quarter 2014, a decrease of $0.03 per diluted share or 6%. Adjusted net income decreased $0.34 per diluted share, or 44% percent, as compared to the fourth quarter 2014 adjusted net income of $0.78 per diluted share.
A reconciliation of adjusted net income per diluted share to GAAP net income per diluted share is
attached to this release and also can be found on the Companys website (www.arris.com).
GAAP net income in the first quarter
2015 was $0.13 per diluted share, as compared to first quarter 2014 GAAP net income of $0.28 per diluted share and fourth quarter 2014 GAAP net income of $1.29 per diluted share. The first quarter GAAP net income decreased $0.15 per diluted share,
or 54%, compared to the first quarter of last year. It also decreased $1.16 per diluted share, or 90%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2014.
Cash & Cash Equivalents - The Company ended the first quarter 2015 with $631.6 million of cash resources, which includes
$628.6 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and $3.0 million of long-term marketable securities, as compared to $697.4 million, in the aggregate, at the end of the fourth quarter 2014. The Company used $63.3 million of cash
for operating activities during the first quarter 2015, as compared to $27.0 million generated during the first quarter 2014.
Order
backlog at the end of the first quarter 2015 was $725.7 million as compared to $996.1 million and $631.0 million at the end of the first quarter 2014 and the fourth quarter 2014, respectively. The Companys book-to-bill ratio in the first
quarter 2015 was 1.08 as compared to the first quarter 2014 of 1.37 and the fourth quarter 2014 of 1.03.

No Offer or Solicitation
This release is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell, or an invitation to subscribe for,

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements made in this press release, including those related to:
|
|
|
the proposed acquisitions of AVN and Pace; |
|
|
|
growth expectations and business prospects; |
|
|
|
revenues and net income for the second quarter 2015, and beyond; |
|
|
|
expected sales levels and acceptance of new ARRIS products; and |
|
|
|
the general market outlook and industry trends |
are forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those
set forth in these statements. Among other things,
|
|
|
ARRIS completion of the Pace acquisition is subject to satisfaction of a number of conditions outside of ARRIS control, including
receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, and the approval of the shareholders of ARRIS and Pace; |
|
|
|
ARRIS may fail to realize the expected benefits of the announced transactions; there may be negative effects relating to the announcement of the
transactions or any further announcements relating to the transactions; and ARRIS may incur significant transaction costs and/or unknown liabilities; |
|
|
|
projected results for the second quarter 2015 as well as the general outlook for 2015 and beyond are based on preliminary estimates, assumptions
and projections that management believes to be reasonable at this time, but are largely beyond managements control; |
|
|
|
ARRIS customers operate in a capital intensive consumer based industry, and volatility in the capital markets or changes in customer spending
may adversely impact their ability or willingness to purchase the products that the Company offers; |
|
|
|
the strengthening U.S. Dollar may adversely impact ARRIS international customers ability or willingness to purchase products
and the pricing of ARRIS products; |
|
|
|
because the market in which ARRIS operates is volatile, actions taken and contemplated may not achieve the desired impact relative to changing
market conditions and the success of these strategies will be dependent on the effective implementation of those plans while minimizing organizational disruption; and |
|
|
|
termination of the previously proposed acquisition of Time Warner by Comcast and the announced transactions within our customer base, including the
proposed acquisition of DIRECTV by AT&T, and the proposed acquisition by Frontier Communications of several properties owned by Verizon may have an impact on customers spending. |
In addition to the factors set forth elsewhere in this release, other factors that could cause results to differ from current expectations
include: the impact of rapidly changing technologies; the impact of competition on product development and pricing; the ability of ARRIS to react to changes in general industry and market conditions including regulatory developments; rights to
intellectual property; market trends and the adoption of industry standards. These factors are not intended to be an all-encompassing list of risks and uncertainties that may affect the Companys business. Additional information regarding
these and other factors can be found in ARRIS reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In providing forward-looking statements, the Company expressly
disclaims any obligation to update publicly or otherwise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Important Additional Information Regarding the Transaction Will Be Filed With the SEC
In connection with the proposed acquisition of Pace, it is expected that the shares of New ARRIS to be issued by New ARRIS to Pace shareholders
under the scheme will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof. In connection with the issuance of New ARRIS shares to ARRIS
stockholders pursuant to the merger that forms a part of the transaction, New ARRIS will file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will contain a prospectus of New ARRIS as well as a proxy statement of ARRIS relating to the merger
that forms a part of the combination, which we refer to together as the Form S-4/Proxy Statement.
INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE
URGED TO READ THE FORM S-4/PROXY STATEMENT, AND OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ABOUT THE TRANSACTION, THE PARTIES TO THE TRANSACTION AND THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSACTION. Those documents, if and when filed, as well as ARRISs and New ARRISs other public
filings with the SEC may be obtained without charge at the SECs website at www.sec.gov and at ARRISs website at http://ir.arris.com. Security holders and other interested parties will also be able to obtain, without charge, a copy
of the Form S-4/Proxy Statement and other relevant documents (when available) by directing a request by mail to ARRIS Investor Relations, 3871 Lakefield Drive, Suwanee, GA 30024 or at http://ir.arris.com. Security holders may also read and copy any
reports, statements and other information filed with the SEC at the SEC public reference room at 100 F Street N.E., Room 1580, Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at (800) 732-0330 or visit the SECs website for further information
on its public reference room.
Participants in the Solicitation
ARRIS, its directors and certain of its executive officers may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Proxy Statement. Information about the directors and executive officers of ARRIS is set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was filed with the SEC on
February 27, 2015, and its proxy statement for its 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 9, 2015. Other information regarding potential participants in the proxy solicitations and a description of their
direct and indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be contained in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus when it is filed.
Pace and New ARRIS are each organized under the laws of England and Wales. Some of the officers and directors of Pace and New ARRIS are
residents of countries other than the United States. As a result, it may not be possible to sue Pace, New ARRIS or such persons in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. It may be difficult to compel Pace, New ARRIS and their
respective affiliates to subject themselves to the jurisdiction and judgment of a US court or for investors to enforce against them the judgments of US courts.
UK Takeover Code Directors Confirmation
The statements above with respect to projected ranges of revenues, adjusted net income per diluted share and GAAP net income per diluted share

the currently prevailing rates; |
|
|
|
there will be no material interruptions in the delivery of components for the manufacture of ARRIS products or the delivery of finished
products to customers; |
|
|
|
the announcement of the proposed AVN transaction and the proposed acquisition of Pace will not have any impact on the timing or receipt of customer
orders; |
|
|
|
there will be no material adverse changes to existing global macroeconomic or political conditions; |
|
|
|
there will be no material regulatory developments that affect ARRIS operations or the operations of its customers; and |
|
|
|

|
|
|

Notes to GAAP to Adjusted Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP or referred to
herein as reported). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide management and other users with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our ongoing
performance. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the factors management uses in
planning for and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the Companys reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect
adjustments based on the following items, as well as the related income tax effects:
Acquisition Accounting Impacts Related to Deferred Revenue:
In connection with our acquisitions of Motorola Home, business combination rules require us to account for the fair values of arrangements for which acceptance has not been obtained, and post contract support in our purchase accounting. The
non-GAAP adjustment to our sales and cost of sales is intended to include the full amounts of such revenues. We believe the adjustment to these revenues is useful as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business. We have historically
experienced high renewal rates related to our support agreements and our objective is to increase the renewal rates on acquired post contract support agreements; however, we cannot be certain that our customers will renew our contracts.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense: We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expenses in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and
net income measures. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation expenses. We record non-cash compensation expense related to
grants of options and restricted stock. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods.
Integration, Acquisition, Restructuring and Other Costs: We have excluded the effect of acquisition, integration, and other expenses and the effect of
restructuring expenses in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measures. We will incur significant expenses in connection with our recent acquisition of Motorola Home, which we generally would not otherwise incur in the periods
presented as part of our continuing operations. Acquisition and integration expenses consist of transaction costs, costs for transitional employees, other acquired employee related costs, and integration related outside services. Restructuring
expenses consist of employee severance, abandoned facilities, and other exit costs. Additionally, we have excluded the effect of a loss on the sale of a product line in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measures. We believe
it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our total operating expenses.
Amortization of Intangible Assets: We have excluded the
effect of amortization of intangible assets in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measures. Amortization of intangible assets is non-cash, and is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the
timing and size of our acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets
will recur in future periods.
Loss on Sale of Building: In the first quarter of 2015, the Company sold land and a building that qualified for
sale-leaseback accounting and was classified as an operating lease. A loss has been recorded on the sale. We have excluded the effect of the loss on sale of property in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to
understand the effect of excluding this item when evaluating our ongoing performance.
Liability Related to Foreign Tax Credit Benefits: In
connection with our acquisition of Motorola Home, we have obtained certain foreign tax credit benefits for which we have recorded a liability to Google resulting from certain provisions in the acquisition agreement. The expense related to this
liability has been recorded as part of other expense (income). We have excluded the effect of the expense in the calculation of our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effects of this item on our total other
expense (income).
Impairment of Investment: We have excluded the effect of an other-than-temporary impairment of a cost method investment in
calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effect of this non-cash item in our other expense (income).
Asset Held for Sale Impairment: In the second quarter of 2014, we entered into a contract to facilitate the sale of a building at less than its
carrying value. The asset has been reclassified as held for sale and was measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. We have recorded an initial impairment charge to reduce the assets carrying amount to its
fair value less costs to sell in the period the held for sale criteria were met. We have excluded the effect of the asset held for sale impairment in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effect
of this non-cash item in our other expense (income).
Income Tax Expense (Benefit): We have excluded the tax effect of the non-GAAP items mentioned
above. Additionally, we have excluded the effects of certain tax adjustments related to tax and legal restructuring, state valuation allowances, research and development tax credits and provision to return differences.
