Logitech Increases Fiscal Year 2021 Outlook, Raises Long-Term Financial Model


In advance of a meeting to be held with financial analysts and investors, Logitech International (SIX:LOGN) (Nasdaq:LOGI) today:

"We're delivering an extremely strong fiscal year," said Bracken Darrell, Logitech president and chief executive officer. "Several years ago, we set out to become a design company and positioned our business against long-term growth trends in remote work, video collaboration, esports, and digital content creation. These trends have accelerated over the course of the fiscal year and have seen a coming of age for Logitech. Looking ahead, we see strong growth opportunities and will continue to invest behind these secular trends, as well as others where we have opportunities to lead. We're committed to sustainability and positively impacting the communities in which we operate."

Analyst and Investor Day Videoconference and Livestream

At Logitech's Analyst and Investor Day, Company executives will present how capabilities such as go-to-market, operations, sustainability, marketing and more are contributing to current and future growth. The event will be held on March 1 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time and 3:00 p.m. Central European Time through videoconference. A livestream and replay of the event 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 share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related costs, change in fair value of contingent consideration for business acquisition, restructuring charges (credits), loss (gain) on investments, and 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 in constant currency 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 Fiscal Years 2021 or 2022.
