Fourth Quarter 2013

On a GAAP basis, revenue for the quarter totaled $509.8 million, up $32.1 million, or 6.7%, compared to $477.7 million in the fourth quarter 2012.

Income from continuing operations per diluted share totaled $0.54, compared to $0.88 in the fourth quarter 2012, a year-over-year decrease of 38.6%, largely a result of favorable discrete tax items in the year-ago period.

Adjusted revenue for the quarter totaled $515.9 million, up $34.7 million, or 7.2%, compared to $481.2 million in the fourth quarter 2012. Adjusted gross margin in the fourth quarter was 35.2%, increasing 200 basis points from 33.2% in the year-ago period. Adjusted operating profit margin in the fourth quarter was 13.8%, increasing 230 basis points from 11.5% in the year-ago period.

A non-GAAP reconciliation table is provided as an appendix to this release.

John Stroup, President and CEO of Belden Inc., said, "I'm pleased with the solid finish to the year. Results were as we expected, as our Enterprise and Broadcast platforms benefitted from improved year-over-year market demand."

Full Year 2013

On a GAAP basis, revenue for the year totaled $2.069 billion, up $228 million, or 12.4%, compared to $1.841 billion in the full year 2012.

Mr. Stroup remarked, "2013 was a very good year at Belden. We successfully integrated two important acquisitions and transformed our structure from a legacy regional organization to its current form of four global platforms serving the Broadcast, Enterprise, and Industrial markets. While market demand made for a challenging year, we remained focused on creating value through the disciplined execution of our Belden Business System. As a result, revenue and profitability are at an all-time high, and we are well positioned for the future."

Acquisition of Grass Valley

Belden has submitted a binding offer to purchase privately held Grass Valley, a leader within the broadcast market, for $220 million. The binding offer is subject to consultation with Grass Valley's foreign labor works council, after which we will enter into a definitive agreement. Grass Valley provides innovative technologies including production switchers, cameras, servers, and editing solutions within the mission critical applications of broadcast customers. When combined with Miranda, the resulting end-to-end solution will be the most complete and compelling in the industry.

"We are extremely excited to have Grass Valley join the Belden family. By combining Grass Valley and Miranda, we will create the broadcast industry's largest and most complete portfolio," said Mr. Stroup.

A full discussion of this transaction and its potential financial impact on Belden's consolidated results will accompany the fourth quarter's earnings call occurring today, February 6th at 10:30 am EST. This transaction is expected to close by March 31, 2014 and is subject to regulatory approvals, the completion of audited financial statements, and other customary closing conditions.

Outlook

"Market demand appears to be stable in the majority of our end-markets. This in combination with the execution of our Market Delivery System should create the catalyst for organic growth and margin expansion. Even after completing the acquisition of Grass Valley, our funnel and balance sheet will remain strong. We are confident that these initiatives position us to perform well, and we remain comfortable with our previously announced earnings outlook for 2014," said Mr. Stroup.

The Company expects first quarter 2014 adjusted revenues to be $495 - $505 million and adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $0.77 - $0.82. For the full year ending December 31, 2014, the Company expects adjusted revenues to be $2.11 - $2.15 billion and adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $3.81 - $4.11. These figures exclude the potential impact of Grass Valley, as this transaction has not yet been completed.

On a GAAP basis, the Company expects first quarter 2014 revenues to be $491 - $501 million and income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $0.55 - $0.60. For the full year ending December 31, 2014, the Company expects revenues to be $2.096 - $2.136 billion and income from continuing operations per diluted share to be $2.95 - $3.25. These figures exclude the potential impact of Grass Valley, as this transaction has not yet been completed.

Forward Looking Statements

This release contains forward looking statements including our expectations for the first quarter and full-year 2014 and the acquisition of Grass Valley. Forward looking statements also include any other statements regarding future revenues, costs and expenses, operating income, earnings per share, margins, cash flows, dividends, and capital expenditures. These forward looking statements are based on forecasts and projections about the markets and industries served by the Company and about general economic conditions. They reflect management's beliefs and expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. The Company's actual results may differ materially from these expectations for a number of reasons including: changes in the global economy may impact the Company's results; turbulence in financial markets may increase the Company's borrowing costs; the Company relies on key distributors in marketing products; the Company's ability to execute and realize the expected benefits from strategic initiatives (including revenue growth, cost control, and productivity improvement programs); changes in the level of economic activity in the Company's major geographic markets; difficulties in realigning manufacturing capacity and capabilities among the Company's global manufacturing facilities; the competitiveness of the global broadcast, enterprise, and industrial markets; variability in the Company's quarterly and annual effective tax rates; changes in accounting rules and interpretation of these rules which may affect the Company's reported earnings; changes in currency exchange rates and political and economic uncertainties in the countries where the Company conducts business; demand for the Company's products; the cost and availability of materials including copper, plastic compounds derived from fossil fuels, electronic components, and other materials; energy costs; the Company's ability to achieve acquisition performance expectations and to integrate acquired businesses successfully; the ability of the Company to develop and introduce new products; the Company having to recognize charges that would reduce income as a result of impairing goodwill and other intangible assets; security risks and the potential for business interruption from operating in volatile countries; disruptions or failures of the Company's (or the Company's suppliers or customers) systems or operations in the event of a major earthquake, weather event, cyber-attack, terrorist attack, or other catastrophic event that could cause delays in completing sales, providing services, or performing other mission-critical functions; and other factors. In addition, the completion of the acquisition of Grass Valley is subject to a number of factors, including regulatory approvals, the completion of audited financial statements, and other customary closing conditions.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited)
 
We define free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for acquisition and divestiture transaction costs, capital expenditures net of the proceeds from the disposal of tangible assets, non-recurring payments related to divestitures, and non-recurring tax payments related to the settlement of a tax sharing agreement. We believe free cash flow provides useful information to investors regarding our ability to generate cash from business operations that is available for acquisitions and other investments, service of debt principal, dividends, and share repurchases. We use free cash flow, as defined, as one financial measure to monitor and evaluate performance and liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only in conjunction with financial measures reported according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our definition of free cash flow may differ from definitions used by other companies.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited)
 
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we provide non-GAAP operating results adjusted for certain items, including: asset impairments; accelerated depreciation expense due to plant consolidation activities; purchase accounting effects related to acquisitions, such as the adjustment of acquired inventory to fair value; acquisition and divestiture transaction costs; revenue and cost of sales deferrals for acquired product lines subject to software revenue recognition accounting requirements; severance and other restructuring costs; gains (losses) recognized on the disposal of businesses and tangible assets; amortization of intangible assets; gains (losses) on debt extinguishment; non-recurring tax benefits related to the settlement of a tax sharing agreement; and other costs. We utilize the adjusted results to review our ongoing operations without the effect of these adjustments and for comparison to budgeted operating results. We believe the adjusted results are useful to investors because they help them compare our results to previous periods and provide important insights into underlying trends in the business and how management oversees our business operations on a day-to-day basis. Adjusted results should be considered only in conjunction with results reported according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited)
 
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we provide non-GAAP operating results adjusted for certain items, including: asset impairments; accelerated depreciation expense due to plant consolidation activities; purchase accounting effects related to acquisitions, such as the adjustment of acquired inventory to fair value; acquisition and divestiture transaction costs; revenue and cost of sales deferrals for acquired product lines subject to software revenue recognition accounting requirements; severance and other restructuring costs; gains (losses) recognized on the disposal of businesses and tangible assets; amortization of intangible assets; and other costs. We utilize the adjusted results to review our ongoing operations without the effect of these adjustments and for comparison to budgeted operating results. We believe the adjusted results are useful to investors because they help them compare our results to previous periods and provide important insights into underlying trends in the business and how management oversees our business operations on a day-to-day basis. Adjusted results should be considered only in conjunction with results reported according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
