Annual Report


ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto that are incorporated by reference from Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Overview
Intermec, Inc. ("Intermec", "us", "we", "our", or the "Company") is a global business that designs, develops, integrates, sells and resells wired and wireless automated identification and data collection ("AIDC") products and related services. Our products and services are used by businesses of all sizes, throughout the world, and are particularly suited for challenging or harsh environments where mobility, reliability and durability are important. We offer a broad range of products including mobile computers, bar code scanners, printers, label media, radio frequency identification ("RFID") products and related software, and wearable voice data collection devices and related software. With our products, we also offer a variety of services. Refer to Item 1, Business, for detail about our products and services. Most of our revenue is currently generated through sales of mobile computers, wearable voice data capture devices and related software, bar code scanners, printers and repair services.
Our strategy is to provide mobile business solutions that help our customers improve workflow performance, increase revenues, lower costs and improve customer satisfaction and loyalty. As part of that strategy, we seek to strengthen our position as a solutions company in the AIDC industry through vertical market expertise, a solutions orientation, and a focus on customer and partner relationships. We also seek to grow our business by targeting vertical markets, increasing our marketing activities, expanding our channel, adding software and managed services to our offerings and introducing innovative new products.
In 2012, total revenue decreased by 7%, or $58.1 million, compared to 2011. The decline was driven by several factors, including slowing global economic activity, particularly in Europe, and declining foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar. Our international revenues in 2012 declined 11.3% compared to 2011, largely attributable to a slowdown in Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") where total revenues declined 16.1%. Revenues in Asia Pacific ("ASIAPAC") and Latin America and Mexico ("LATAM") declined 5.8% and 1.5%, respectively, in 2012.
Our financial reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, and changes in exchange rates can significantly affect our financial trends and reported results. In 2012, the decrease in revenues of $58.1 million included an $18.5 million decrease attributable to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates. See Foreign Currency Transactions and Effect of Foreign Exchange Rates in this Item 7 for further information about our foreign currency exposure and our risk management program.
Our revenue performance in North America, while still down 2.1% in 2012 over 2011, was stronger than in EMEA and ASIAPAC, due in part to our acquisitions of Vocollect and Enterprise Mobile that we completed in 2011. Our Voice solutions segment revenue increased, in part due to the inclusion of a full year of results in 2012, compared to only ten months of results in 2011 for our Vocollect business that was acquired in March 2011. Total gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 40.0%, as compared to 40.9% in the prior year, reflecting negative foreign currency exchange impacts and reduced sales, partially offset by higher margins on our Voice solutions segment, which included a full year of results in 2012.
On June 12, 2012, after revising our 2012 business forecast to reflect current economic and other expectations, we committed to a business restructuring plan to better align our cost structure with our current and anticipated needs by lowering costs primarily in our largest markets: North America and Europe. These reductions lowered our service and supply chain overhead and general and administrative support costs, with lesser impacts to research and development and sales and marketing. The net restructuring expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $4.4 million. We believe that the restructuring resulted in savings of approximately $6.7 million in 2012, and approximately $14.1 million on an annualized basis.
Merger Agreement with Honeywell
On December 9, 2012, Intermec entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Honeywell and Merger Sub. Under the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Intermec, with Intermec continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell (the "Merger"). After completion of the Merger, Honeywell will own 100% of Intermec's outstanding stock, and current stockholders will no longer have any interest in Intermec. The closing of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including (i) receiving the required approval of the Company's stockholders and (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, and any applicable waiting period or approvals under the competition, antitrust or similar laws of certain foreign jurisdictions. See Part I, Item 1, Business, Merger Agreement with Honeywell, for more information. The Merger Agreement and related materials can be found in the Company's SEC filings at www.sec.gov.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (Continued)

2012 vs. 2011. Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased by $58.1 million, or 6.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. Unfavorable movement in foreign currency rates resulted in a decrease in total revenue of $18.5 million, or 2.2%. The overall decrease is partially offset by an increase of $18.9 million attributable to the inclusion of a full year of operations of Vocollect and Enterprise Mobile in 2012, as compared to approximately ten months in 2011 based on the timing of the acquisitions in March 2011. A discussion of total revenues by category and geographic region follows.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, within the Intermec-branded product segment, Systems and solutions revenue declined $42.7 million, or 10.1%; and Printer and media revenue decreased $26.6 million, or 15.2%, compared to 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in sales in EMEA, which we believe reflects a slowing of large deals, competitive pressures and significant uncertainty in the economy; and to a lesser extent, we saw a decline in sales in North America.

Intermec-branded service revenue of $138.3 million decreased by $4.8 million, or 3%, as compared to 2011, and was down $7.7 million, or 6%, when revenues from acquired businesses are excluded. The decline was largely due to the decrease in related product sales, and a lower average price per unit under contract as a result of competitive pricing.

Voice solutions revenue of $122.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased $16.0 million, or 15.1%, due primarily to the inclusion of a full year of results from the Vocollect acquisition, as compared to ten months of results in 2011.
Revenues varied across the geographic regions for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared with 2011, as follows:
• North America revenues decreased $8.6 million, or 2.1%. This was primarily attributable to a decrease of System and solutions revenue of $14.2 million and lower printer sales of $5.3 million. The decrease was offset by a $12.4 million increase from our entities acquired in March 2011.

• EMEA revenues decreased $44.4 million, or 16.1%, over 2011. The decrease in EMEA revenues was mainly attributable to lower sales of our Intermec-branded products driven by a slowing of large deals compared to the prior year, competitive pressures and economic conditions in that region. The decline in revenue included $28.3 million of Systems and solutions and $16.6 million of Printer and media. Foreign currency conversion rates unfavorably impacted EMEA revenue by $10.5 million, or 3.8%. These decreases in EMEA were partially offset by a $6.0 million increase in Vocollect's revenues in EMEA.

• LATAM revenues decreased $1.5 million, or 1.5%, from the prior-year period. This decrease includes a $0.5 million decrease in Vocollect's revenues in LATAM, and slight decreases of Systems and solutions and Service revenue.

• ASIAPAC revenues decreased $3.6 million, or 5.8%, primarily due to an economic slowdown in China and other southeast Asian economies. Printer and media sales decreased by $4.3 million, partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in Vocollect's revenues in ASIAPAC.

Across all regions the combined impact from foreign currency rates as compared to the prior-year period was $18.5 million, or 2.2%, unfavorable to revenue. 2011 vs. 2010. Excluding the impact from acquisitions, total revenues in 2011increased 7.8%, or $52.8 million, compared to 2010, with growth in EMEA, ASIAPAC and LATAM of 11.7%, 22.7% and 29.3% respectively.
Intermec-branded product revenues of $598.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, increased $53.6 million, or 9.8%, compared to 2010. The growth in our 2011 Intermec-branded product revenues was due to a $41.8 million, or 11.0%, increase in sales of Systems and solutions products and $11.9 million, or 7.2%, increase in sales of Printer and media products. The increase in Printer and media products revenues was primarily driven by an increase in our sales to distribution channel partners, and the increase in Systems and solutions products revenues was primarily related to increased product volumes. Increased sales in LATAM market contributed the most of any region to the growth in both the Printer and media and Systems and solution product lines. Intermec-branded service revenues of $143.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased $9.2 million, or 6.8%, compared to 2010. The increase in Intermec-branded service revenues was driven by service revenue from the Enterprise Mobile acquisition in March 2011, partially offset by a year-over-year decline in service revenue from U.S. federal government customers.
Geographically, revenues in North America for the year ended December 31, 2011, increased by $64.2 million, or 18.6%, while revenues in EMEA, LATAM and ASIAPAC increased by $62.4 million, or 29.3%, by $26.4 million or 34.6% and by $16.1 million, or 35.2%, respectively, compared to 2010. The increase in North America revenues in 2011 was attributable to sales related to companies acquired in 2011, partially offset by decreased sales of Intermec-branded printer, media and RFID products. The increase

in EMEA revenues in 2011 was related to growth in our overall business and sales related to companies acquired in 2011 and changes in foreign currency conversion rates that favorably impacted EMEA revenues by $8.6 million, or 4.5%, as compared to the foreign currency exchange rates experienced in 2010. Across all regions, the favorable impact of foreign currency rates as compared to the foreign currency exchange rates experienced in 2010 was $10.4 million, or 1.5%. The increase in LATAM revenue was primarily attributable to continued expansion of Intermec-branded product sales to existing customers. The increase in ASIAPAC was primarily attributable to continued growth in the markets we serve across multiple product lines.

Total gross profit and gross margin $ 316.0     40.0 %   $ 346.7     40.9 %   $ 257.6     37.9 %

2012 vs. 2011. Total gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2012, decreased by $30.7 million, or 8.9%, as compared to 2011. The decrease in total gross profit was primarily attributable to increased pricing discounts on Intermec-branded products, reduced sales and negative foreign currency exchange impacts. The gross profit decline was partially offset by the inclusion of a full year of Vocollect results in the Voice solutions segment.
Intermec-branded product gross profit decreased $49.8 million, or 20.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to 2011, primarily due to certain pricing discounts, reduced sales and the impact of foreign currency conversion rates.
Intermec-branded service gross profit increased $2.7 million, or 5.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, attributable primarily to the inclusion of results for a full period from the Enterprise Mobile acquisition and reduced costs, partially offset by reduced sales in our traditional services business, largely in EMEA.
Voice solutions gross profit increased $16.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 due primarily to the inclusion of a full year of Vocollect results as compared to ten months in 2011.
2011 vs. 2010. Total gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2011, increased $89.1 million and the total gross margin increased by 300 basis points compared to 2010. The increase in total gross profit reflects a $31.0 million, or 180 basis points, increase in gross profit for the Intermec-branded products segment and incremental gross profit on our acquired Voice solutions in our sales mix, partially offset by a $2.6 million, or 420 basis points, decrease in gross profit for the Intermec-branded service segment. The increase in 2011 product gross profit and gross margin was primarily due to an increased volume of product sales including acquisitions and favorable product mix. The decrease in Intermec-branded service gross profit and gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2011, was mainly attributable to lower services sales to our North America customers, lower initial margins from our acquired managed services focused businesses and one-time costs associated with our transition to an outsourcing supplier in EMEA, which are not included in restructuring costs.

Research and Development Expense - Research and development ("R&D") expense decreased $1.9 million, or 2.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 2011. This decrease in R&D expense was primarily due to a $2.0 million decrease in costs for labor, contractors and bonuses.
R&D expense increased $14.9 million, or 21.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. This increase in R&D expense was due to $18.8 million related to the Vocollect acquisition, partially offset by lower expenditures in 2011 driven by efficiency initiatives in the Intermec-branded products business. Selling, General and Administrative Expense - Total selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $246.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to SG&A expenses of $250.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease of $3.4 million, or 1.4%, was partially due to $6.6 million from foreign exchange forward contracts, which had gains of $0.5 million in 2012 compared with losses of $6.1 million in 2011; offset by increases of approximately $3.0 million in 2012 due to transaction costs for the Honeywell merger agreement. SG&A was also impacted by decreases in salary expense related to the restructuring plan in June 2012, reduced bonus expense, gains from death benefits under company-owned life insurance, lower commissions on decreased sales and decreases in stock-based compensation expense due to forfeitures of awards related primarily to the departure of our former CEO; partially offset by increases for severance pay for our former CEO, increased bad debt expense and the inclusion of a full year of expenses related to businesses acquired in March 2011.
SG&A expense increased $65.1 million, or 35.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to $41.9 million of costs associated with the Vocollect business we acquired, increased investment in our sales and marketing organization, an ERP system implementation in EMEA and increased incentive compensation.
Impairment of Goodwill - Impairment of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $51.2 million. We recorded several goodwill impairment charges during the year as a result of the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeding its implied fair value, which primarily reflected our business performance versus our forecast and the Company's lower market capitalization. See Note 15, Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. We had no similar expense related to impairment of goodwill during 2011 and 2010.
Acquisition Costs - The acquisition costs of $6.0 million for the year ended 2011 consist of transaction related fees such as investment banking, legal and audit fees, along with integration, retention and transition costs that relate to the acquisitions made in the first quarter of 2011.
Capitalized Legal Fees Charge - The write-off of capitalized patent defense costs of $5.6 million for the year ended 2011 relate to legal costs capitalized between 2007 and 2011 attributable to a patent lawsuit. There were no similar transactions in 2012 or 2010. Refer to Note 13, Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about charges taken during 2011, and about other capitalized patent defense costs reflected on our balance sheet.
