Logitech Hosts Annual Analyst and Investor Day

SIX Swiss Exchange Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR — Logitech International (SIX:LOGN) (Nasdaq:LOGI), in advance of a meeting to be held with financial analysts and investors, today confirmed its financial outlook for fiscal year 2023 and provided its outlook for the first half of fiscal year 2024.

  • Current Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook: Logitech confirmed its current Fiscal Year 2023 outlook of between 15 percent and 13 percent sales decline in constant currency, and between $550 million and $600 million in non-GAAP operating income.
  • First Half Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook: Logitech announced its outlook for the first half of Fiscal Year 2024. Revenue is expected to be between $1.8 billion and $1.9 billion, a decline in US dollars of between 22 percent and 18 percent. Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be between $160 million and $190 million.
  • Long-Term Business Model: Logitech maintains its long-term non-GAAP model. Long-term, the expectation for sales growth in constant currency continues to be from 8 to 10 percent. The expected long-term non-GAAP gross margin target is maintained at between 39 and 44 percent. The expected long-term non-GAAP operating margin target is maintained at between 14 and 17 percent.

“Fiscal Year 2023 has been a year of transition for Logitech as we continue to navigate a series of external headwinds,” said Bracken Darrell, Logitech president and chief executive officer. “While our recent results were disappointing, we have always taken a long-term perspective and our long-term strategies remain unchanged. Short term we continue to gain market share in our key categories while we adjust our cost structure to the market size. We are encouraged by the opportunities in front of us and as a leader in our markets, we are well positioned to take advantage of the trends that fuel our business - in video, hybrid work, gaming and content creation.”

Analyst and Investor Day Videoconference and Livestream

At Logitech's Analyst and Investor Day, Company executives will present a view of the Company’s long-term strategy and industry-leading innovation. The event will be held on March 8 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time and 3:00 p.m. Central European Time through videoconference. A livestream, replay of the event, and slide presentation will be available on the Logitech corporate website at http://ir.logitech.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and Constant Currency

To facilitate comparisons to Logitech’s historical results, Logitech has included non-GAAP adjusted measures, which exclude primarily share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related costs, impairment of intangible assets, change in fair value of contingent consideration for business acquisition, restructuring charges (credits), loss (gain) on investments, non-GAAP income tax adjustment, and other items detailed in our “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation” under “Supplemental Financial Information” in our quarterly earnings press release and posted to our website at http://ir.logitech.com. Logitech also presents percentage sales growth (decline) in constant currency, a non-GAAP measure, to show performance unaffected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Percentage sales growth in constant currency is calculated by translating prior period sales in each local currency at the current period’s average exchange rate for that currency and comparing that to current period sales. Logitech believes this information, used together with the GAAP financial information, will help investors to evaluate its current period performance and trends in its business. With respect to the Company’s outlook for non-GAAP operating income, most of these excluded amounts pertain to events that have not yet occurred and are not currently possible to estimate with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Therefore, no reconciliation to the GAAP amounts has been provided for financial outlooks for Fiscal Year 2023 or first half of fiscal year 2024, and for the long-term non-GAAP model.
