OTHER SELECTED FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue - Sales were $2.2 billion, up 15% from the year-ago quarter driven by growth in North America and International. Revenue from acquisitions was $42 million and currency headwinds were $45 million in the quarter. The Products and Systems Integration segment grew 18%, driven by growth in Land Mobile Radio Communications ("LMR") and Video Security and Access Control ("Video"). The Software and Services segment grew 10%, driven by growth in LMR services, Command Center and Video.
Operating margin - GAAP operating margin was 18.4% of sales, up from 12.6% in the year-ago quarter and Non-GAAP operating margin was 24.5% of sales, up 470 basis points from 19.8% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in both GAAP and Non-GAAP operating margin was driven by higher sales, lower direct material costs and improved operating leverage.
Taxes - The GAAP effective tax rate was 22.1%, up from (22.4)% in the year-ago quarter, primarily due to a discrete deferred tax benefit as a result of the taxable reorganization of intellectual property in the year-ago quarter. The non-GAAP effective tax rate was 21.9%, up from 15.2% in the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by lower benefits from stock-based compensation recognized in the current year.
Cash flow - Operating cash flow was a usage of $8 million, compared to $152 million of operating cash flow generated in the year-ago quarter and free cash flow was a usage of $62M, compared to $98 million of free cash flow generated in the year-ago quarter. Both the operating cash flow and free cash flow for the quarter decreased primarily due to an increase in working capital and higher cash taxes, partially offset by higher earnings, net of non-cash charges.
Capital allocation - During the quarter, the company paid $148 million in cash dividends, repurchased $140 million of shares and incurred $54 million of capital expenditures.
Backlog - The company ended the quarter with record Q1 backlog of $14.1 billion, up 5% or $623 million from the year-ago quarter, inclusive of $372 million of unfavorable currency rates. Products and Systems Integration segment backlog was up $601 million, or 15%. The growth was primarily driven by strong LMR demand. Software and Services segment backlog was up $22 million, driven by an increase in multi-year software and services contracts in North America, partially offset by revenue recognition for the Airwave contract, $329 million of unfavorable currency rates and a reduction related to the exit from the ESN contract.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Second quarter 2023 - The company expects revenue growth between 10% and 11%, compared to the second quarter of 2022. The company expects non-GAAP EPS in the range of $2.49 to $2.54 per share. This assumes approximately 173 million fully diluted shares and a non-GAAP effective tax rate of approximately 24%.
Full-year 2023 - The company now expects revenue in the range of $9.725 billion to $9.775 billion, up from its prior guidance of $9.65 billion to $9.7 billion, and non-GAAP EPS of between $11.21 and $11.29 per share, up from its prior guidance of between $11.10 and $11.22 per share. This outlook assumes approximately $25 million in foreign exchange headwinds, approximately 172 million fully diluted shares and a non-GAAP effective tax rate between 23% and 24%.

The company has not quantitatively reconciled its guidance for forward-looking non-GAAP metrics to their most comparable GAAP measures because the company does not provide specific guidance for the various reconciling items as certain items that impact these measures have not occurred, are out of the company's control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial metric is not available without unreasonable effort. Please note that the unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact the company's results.

RECENT EVENTS

CMA UPDATE

In October 2021, the United Kingdom's Competition and Markets Authority (the "CMA") announced that it had opened a market investigation into the Mobile Radio Network for the Police and Emergency Services. This investigation affects Airwave, the company's private mobile radio communications network that it acquired in 2016. Airwave provides mission-critical voice and data communications to public emergency service agencies in Great Britain.

Subsequent to the quarter, the CMA issued its final decision which states it intends to impose a prospective price control on Airwave. The company strongly disagrees with the CMA's final decision and intends to appeal; the appeal process is expected to extend throughout 2023. Any price control remedies ultimately imposed under the final decision issued by the CMA are expected to go into effect after a remedies order review and consultation period and following the completion of the appeal process with the U.K.'s Competition Appeal Tribunal ("CAT"). The remedies implementation could potentially be further suspended if the appeal process extends beyond the CAT.

MACROECONOMIC EVENTS

During the first quarter of 2023, the company continued to operate under challenging market conditions, influenced by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the inflationary cost environment, particularly with respect to materials in the semiconductor market. Over the last several quarters, the company has navigated disruptions in its supply chain, in particular challenges in procuring certain semiconductor components, diminished transportation capacity and labor constraints. The company anticipates inflationary pressures and increased material and supply chain costs and disruptions (including elevated costs to procure materials within the semiconductor market) to continue throughout 2023. The company is closely monitoring supply chain disruptions and continues to remain focused on improving its supplier network, engineering alternative designs and working to reduce supply shortages. In addition, the company continues to actively manage its inventory in an effort to minimize supply chain disruptions and enable continuity of supply and services to its customers, which includes making changes that diversify the footprint of its supply chain operations. The company expects to maintain elevated levels of inventory until supply constraints have been remediated.

In order to combat rising inflation in the U.S., the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates multiple times since the beginning of 2022. The increase in U.S. dollar interest rates and overall market conditions led to significant U.S. dollar strengthening in 2022. The company has seen a reversal of a portion of U.S. dollar strengthening from the peak but the outlook for the remainder of the year remains uncertain. The company has cash flows denominated in foreign currencies where the fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar impact its earnings and cash flow.

Although the macroeconomic environment challenges continued in the first quarter of 2023, the company is encouraged by customer demand for its products and services. Specifically, in the Software and Services segment, with the largely recurring nature of the business and the strong backlog position, the company continues to expect that the impact to operating margin will be limited throughout 2023. While the company is encouraged by strong backlog and growth in its Products and Systems Integration segment in the first quarter of 2023, which the company expects to continue to grow throughout 2023, supply constraints continue to impact the business and the company expects demand for its products will continue to outpace its ability to obtain semiconductor component supply. Where appropriate, the company has taken pricing actions around its product and service offerings to mitigate its exposure to inflationary pressures on its businesses and benefited from these adjustments during the first quarter of 2023. The company expects to further benefit from such adjustments in 2023. Further, demand continues to be supported with ongoing sources of government funding, including the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 ("ARPA"), which is intended to provide economic stimulus. The company experienced the positive impact of the ARPA funding on its business and results of operations in 2022 and anticipates that the ARPA will continue to have a positive impact on its business throughout 2023.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In addition to the results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") included in this news release, Motorola Solutions also has included non-GAAP measurements of results, including free cash flow, non-GAAP operating earnings, non-GAAP EPS, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP tax rate and organic revenue. The company has provided these non-GAAP measurements to help investors better understand its core operating performance, enhance comparisons of core operating performance from period-to-period and allow better comparisons of its operating performance to that of its competitors. Among other things, management uses these operating results, excluding the identified items, to evaluate the performance of its businesses and to evaluate results relative to certain incentive compensation targets. Management uses operating results excluding these items because it believes these measurements enable it to make better period-to-period evaluations of the financial performance of its core business operations. The non-GAAP measurements are intended only as a supplement to the comparable GAAP measurements and the company compensates for the limitations inherent in the use of non-GAAP measurements by using GAAP measures in conjunction with the non-GAAP measurements. As a result, investors should consider these non-GAAP measurements in addition to, and not in substitution for or as superior to, GAAP measurements.

Reconciliations: Details and reconciliations of such non-GAAP measurements to the corresponding GAAP measurements can be found at the end of this news release.

Free cash flow: Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. The company believes that free cash flow is useful to investors as the basis for comparing its performance and coverage ratios with other companies in the company's industries, although the company's measure of free cash flow may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure is also used as a component of incentive compensation.

Organic revenue: Organic revenue reflects net sales calculated under GAAP excluding net sales from acquired business owned for less than four full quarters. The company believes organic revenue provides useful information for evaluating the periodic growth of the business on a consistent basis and provides for a meaningful period-to-period comparison and analysis of trends in the business.

Non-GAAP operating earnings, non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP operating margin each excludes highlighted items, including share-based compensation expenses and intangible assets amortization expense, as follows:

Highlighted items: The company has excluded the effects of highlighted items including, but not limited to, acquisition-related transaction fees, tangible and intangible asset impairments, reorganization of business charges, certain non-cash pension adjustments, legal settlements and other contingencies, gains and losses on investments and businesses, Hytera-related legal expenses, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt and the income tax effects of significant tax matters, from its non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measurements because the company believes that these historical items do not reflect expected future operating earnings or expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's current operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance. For the purposes of management's internal analysis over operating performance, the company uses financial statements that exclude highlighted items, as these charges do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's current operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance.

Hytera-Related Legal Expenses: On March 14, 2017, the company filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois (the "Court") against Hytera Communications Corporation Limited of Shenzhen, China; Hytera America, Inc.; and Hytera Communications America (West), Inc. (collectively, "Hytera"), alleging trade secret theft and copyright infringement and seeking, among other things, injunctive relief, compensatory damages and punitive damages. On February 14, 2020, the company announced that a jury decided in the company's favor in its trade secret theft and copyright infringement case. In connection with this verdict, the jury awarded the company $345.8 million in compensatory damages and $418.8 million in punitive damages, for a total of $764.6 million. In a series of post-trial rulings in 2021, the Court subsequently reduced the judgment to $543.7 million, but also ordered Hytera to pay the company $51.1 million in pre-judgment interest and $2.6 million in costs, as well as $34.2 million in attorneys fees. The company continues to seek collection of the judgment through the ongoing legal process.

On December 17, 2020, the Court held that Hytera must pay the company a forward-looking reasonable royalty on products that use the company's stolen trade secrets, and. on December 15, 2021, set royalty rates for Hytera's sale of relevant products from July 1, 2019 forward. On July 5, 2022, the Court ordered that Hytera pay into a third-party escrow on July 31, 2022, the royalties owed to the company based on the sale of relevant products from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2022. Hytera failed to make the required royalty payment on July 31, 2022. On August 1, 2022, Hytera filed a motion to modify or stay the Court's previous July 5, 2022 royalty order. On August 3, 2022, the company filed a motion seeking to hold Hytera in civil contempt for violating the royalty order by not making the required royalty payment in July. Hytera made quarterly royalty payments on October 31, 2022, January 31, 2023 and April 25, 2023, into a third-party escrow. The amounts paid into escrow were de minimis and will not be recognized until all contingencies are resolved and amounts are released from escrow.

On August 2, 2022, Hytera appealed the Court's judgment with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit (the "Court of Appeals").The company filed its cross-appeal on August 5, 2022. On November 15, 2022, Hytera filed its appellate court brief in the Court of Appeals. The Company filed its response brief with the appellate court on February 13, 2023. Hytera's reply brief is due May 1, 2023.

Separate from the company's litigation with Hytera, on May 27, 2020, Hytera America, Inc. and Hytera Communications America (West), Inc. each filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California (the "Bankruptcy Court"). On February 11, 2022, the Court entered an order to confirm the liquidation plan for the two Hytera entities and the distributions were made on February 25, 2022 to the creditors, including $13 million to the company. On December 22, 2022, an additional distribution of $2 million was made to the Company as well as an assignment of various delinquent accounts receivable of the bankrupt Hytera entities. The gain was recorded to Other charges (income).

Management typically considers legal expenses associated with defending the company's intellectual property as "normal and recurring" and accordingly, Hytera-related legal expenses were included in both the company's GAAP and non-GAAP operating income for fiscal years 2017, 2018 and 2019. The company anticipates further expenses associated with Hytera-related litigation; however, as of 2020, the company believes that these expenses are no longer a part of the "normal and recurring" legal expenses incurred to operate its business. In addition, as any contingent or actual gains associated with the Hytera litigation are recognized, they will be similarly excluded from the company's non-GAAP operating income, consistent with the company's treatment of the $13 million of proceeds realized in Q1 2022. The company believes after the jury award, the presentation of excluding both Hytera-related legal expenses and gains related to awards better aligns with how management evaluates the company's ongoing underlying business performance.

Share-based compensation expenses: The company has excluded share-based compensation expenses from its non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measurements. Although share-based compensation is a key incentive offered to the company's employees and the company believes such compensation contributed to the revenue earned during the periods presented and also believes it will contribute to the generation of future period revenues, the company continues to evaluate its performance excluding share-based compensation expenses primarily because it represents a significant non-cash expense. Share-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods.

Intangible assets amortization expense: The company has excluded intangible assets amortization expense from its non-GAAP operating expenses and net earnings measurements primarily because it represents a non-cash expense and because the company evaluates its performance excluding intangible assets amortization expense. Amortization of intangible assets is consistent in amount and frequency but is significantly affected by the timing and size of the company's acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to the company's revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to the company's future period revenues as well. Intangible assets amortization expense will recur in future periods.
