Management Remarks

"ADI and Products & Solutions delivered record quarterly revenue and combined operating profit exceeded the high-end of our outlook," commented Jay Geldmacher, Resideo's President and CEO. "We have remained focused on delivering for customers and we believe our execution has enabled us to improve our positioning at key distribution and retail accounts, add new OEM business, and solidify our position as the distributor of choice for security contractors."

"Products & Solutions grew volumes in the quarter and we continue to see good realization on our price actions. First Alert delivered a strong quarter, and we are in the very early stages of tapping the meaningful commercial and operational opportunities from bringing the organizations together. Investments to expand digital initiatives and private brands continue to deliver strong growth for ADI. Returns on these investments and ADI's relentless focus on execution drove another quarter of meaningful gross margin expansion and record operating income." 

Products & Solutions Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

• - Record revenue of $764 million, up 28% compared to the second quarter 2021
• - Operating profit of $154 million, up 19% compared to the second quarter 2021
• - Strong realization on pricing actions drove over $60 million of year-over-year revenue improvement
• - Unit volumes grew compared to the second quarter of 2021, aided by strength in Air products sold through the distribution and retail channels

Products & Solutions delivered revenue of $764 million in the second quarter 2022, up 28% compared to the second quarter 2021 and up 9% excluding the $113 million revenue contribution from the acquisition of First Alert, which was completed on March 31, 2022. Demand was strongest in the distribution and retail channels, which offset expected declines in security. The supply chain environment remained challenging during the second quarter, constraining the business' ability to fully meet demand. 

Gross margin for the quarter was 37.3%, compared to 39.3% in the second quarter 2021. Pricing actions benefited second quarter gross margin and partially offset year-over-year cost inflation and impacts from the First Alert acquisition. Included in the second quarter 2022 gross profit was First Alert inventory step-up expenses of $6 million, which impacted gross margin by approximately 80 basis points. Operating profit for the quarter was $154 million, or 20.2% of revenue, up 19% compared to the second quarter 2021. 

First Alert had a strong second quarter, driven by solid demand for smoke and combo alarms and strong operational execution. Results also benefited from recent pricing actions. Initial collaboration work has begun between the First Alert and Resideo teams with a number of value creating opportunities already identified.

ADI Global Distribution Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

• - Record revenue of $922 million, up 5% compared to the second quarter 2021
• - Gross margin of 20.0%, up 260 basis points compared to the second quarter 2021
• - Operating profit of $86 million, up 30% compared to the second quarter 2021
• - E-commerce sales growth of 29%, accounting for 18% of ADI total revenue

ADI second quarter 2022 revenue of $922 million was up 5% compared to the second quarter 2021, driven by a strong pricing environment and recent acquisitions. Demand was again strong in categories that typically serve commercial end markets including fire and access control. Vendor supply issues remained a headwind to additional growth in the quarter. Sales through ADI's e-commerce channel grew 29%, representing 18% of total ADI revenue, with overall touchless revenue reaching 36% of ADI total revenue. Private brands sales grew over 35% compared to the second quarter 2021.  

Gross margin of 20.0% in the second quarter 2022 was up 260 basis points compared to the second quarter 2021. Benefits from the current inflationary pricing environment, progress on ADI specific price optimization efforts and expansion of private brands all contributed to margin expansion in the second quarter. ADI continues to invest in digital tools and systems to improve selling efficiency. This includes implementing a global artificial intelligence pricing system in 14 countries, which brings a consistent set of tools with business intelligence dashboards to drive accountability. Operating profit of $86 million for second quarter 2022 was up 30% from $66 million in the second quarter 2021, exceeding 9% of revenue. 

At the beginning of the third quarter, ADI acquired Electronic Custom Distributors (ECD), a regional distributor of residential audio, video, automation, security, wire, and telecommunication products. With four branch locations and a 30,000 sq. ft. distribution center, the acquisition adds to ADI's growing capabilities in the audio visual market. ECD is the fifth acquisition for ADI since 2020.
