"Durante el tercer trimestre, hemos puesto en marcha un nuevo plan estratégico destinado a convertirnos en el máximo exponente en productos empresariales, hemos reestructurado nuestra organización y hemos conseguido unos notables beneficios a pesar de los gastos", explica Ron Sargent, presidente y director ejecutivo de Staples. "Ahora, ocupamos una posición mucho más privilegiada para hacer realidad las mejores oportunidades de crecimiento".
La tasa total de la empresa de ingresos operativos (no computada según GAAP) ha caído 30 puntos básicos hasta un 7,87 por ciento desde la tasa de ingresos operativos del 8,17 por ciento lograda en el tercer trimestre de 2011. Esta disminución refleja, sobre todo, la caída de los márgenes de los productos en North American Delivery e International y las inversiones destinadas a favorecer el crecimiento de Staples.com. La caída se ha compensado, en parte, con la reducción en los gastos de retribución y marketing.
Este año hasta la fecha, la empresa ha generado un flujo de efectivo operativo de 895 millones de dólares y ha invertido 204 millones de dólares en gastos de capital, lo que ha dado lugar a un flujo de fondos disponibles de 691 millones para dicho periodo. La empresa ha recuperado 9,4 millones de sus acciones por 111 millones de dólares durante el tercer trimestre de 2012 y, en lo que va de año, ha recuperado 27,4 millones de acciones por 362 millones de dólares. Además, la empresa ha liquidado una obligación de 325 millones de dólares que vencía el 1 de octubre de 2012. Al término del tercer trimestre, la empresa presenta una liquidez de 2.200 millones de dólares, incluidos 1.000 millones en dinero y cuasidinero.
North American Delivery
En el tercer trimestre de 2012, North American Delivery ha registrado unas ventas de 2.600 millones de dólares, lo que representa un aumento del 1 por ciento en comparación con el mismo periodo del año anterior. Este resultado se debe, sobre todo, al crecimiento tanto de los suministros para instalaciones y salas de descanso como de los servicios de copia e impresión, compensado, en parte, con la ya anunciada pérdida de dos grandes clientes de contrato durante el tercer trimestre de 2011. La tasa de ingresos operativos ha disminuido 76 puntos básicos, hasta el 8,73 por ciento, en comparación con el resultado del tercer trimestre de 2011. La disminución refleja la caída de los márgenes de los productos y las inversiones destinadas a favorecer el crecimiento de Staples.com, que se ha compensado en parte con la reducción en los gastos de marketing.
North American Retail
Con 2.600 millones de dólares, la cifra de ventas de North American Retail se ha mantenido al mismo nivel que la del tercer trimestre de 2011. La cifra de ventas comparables en tiendas del tercer trimestre de 2012 ha disminuido un 1 por ciento por la disminución del 2 por ciento en el tráfico y el aumento del 1 por ciento en el valor medio de los pedidos con respecto al año anterior. La reducción en las ventas de ordenadores y software se ha compensado hasta cierto punto con el aumento experimentado en los servicios de copia e impresión y los artículos básicos para oficina. La tasa de ingresos operativos ha aumentado 9 puntos básicos, hasta el 10,79 por ciento, en comparación con el resultado del tercer trimestre de 2011. Este resultado, debido, sobre todo, a la reducción en los gastos de funcionamiento y a la mejora en la eficiencia de la distribución, se ha compensado hasta cierto punto por las inversiones en actividades promocionales.
Operaciones internacionales
En el tercer trimestre, las ventas en operaciones internacionales han ascendido a 1.100 millones de dólares, lo que representa una disminución del 12 por ciento en dólares estadounidenses y del 8 por ciento en moneda local en comparación con el mismo periodo de 2011. Estos resultados se deben a la débil cifra de ventas en Europa y Australia. La debilidad económica ha sido la causa del descenso en el negocio de venta a distancia de la empresa en Europa así como de la caída del 6 por ciento de las ventas comparables en tiendas de Europa. La tasa de ingresos operativos ha disminuido 302 puntos básicos, hasta una pérdida operativa del 0,15 por ciento, en comparación con el resultado del tercer trimestre de 2011. Si se excluyen los 16 millones de dólares de la amortización acelerada del nombre comercial australiano durante el tercer trimestre, la tasa de ingresos operativos ha disminuido 160 puntos básicos, hasta el 1,27 por ciento, en comparación con el año anterior. Este resultado se debe, sobre todo, al desapalancamiento de los gastos fijos tanto en Europa como en Australia y a la disminución de los márgenes de los productos en Europa, compensado, en parte, por el ahorro relacionado con la reducción de personal en Europa y en Australia.
Cese de actividad
Durante el tercer trimestre de 2012, la empresa ha registrado una pérdida neta por el cese de actividad de European Printing Systems que asciende a 28 millones de dólares estadounidenses, lo cual incluye 23 millones en gastos relacionados con la reestructuración y el aumento de la carga fiscal. Este resultado contrasta con los 3 millones de ingresos netos derivados del cese de actividad logrados en el tercer trimestre de 2011.
Previsiones
En las perspectivas financieras de la empresa, se han tenido en cuenta tanto los efectos de la 53.ª semana del ejercicio 2012 como los efectos de los tipos de cambio de divisas. La empresa no prevé que las ventas totales del año varíen con respecto al año anterior. La empresa prevé un aumento de entre el 1 y el 3 por ciento de las ganancias diluidas por acción totales del año derivadas de la actividad continuada (no computadas según GAAP) con respecto a las ganancias diluidas por acción derivadas de la actividad continuada (no computadas según GAAP) obtenidas en 2011, que ascendieron a 1,37 dólares. En el cálculo de las ganancias diluidas por acción totales del año (no computadas según GAAP) de la empresa, se excluyen los gastos pagaderos durante el tercer trimestre de 2012 además del ya anunciado gasto bruto aproximado de entre 160 y 200 millones de dólares, el cual está relacionado con la reestructuración en Europa, el cierre de tiendas en EE. UU. y la amortización acelerada del nombre comercial australiano, que la empresa pretende contabilizar durante el cuarto trimestre de 2012.
La empresa espera generar más de 1.000 millones de dólares de flujo de efectivo y tiene intención de seguir recuperando acciones ordinarias mediante compras realizadas en el libre mercado hasta un total aproximado de 450 millones a lo largo del año 2012.
Presentation of Non-GAAP Information
This press release presents certain results with and without the impact of charges incurred during the third quarter of 2012 related to the impairment of goodwill and other assets, restructuring charges, accelerated tradename amortization, and the establishment of valuation allowances, net of tax benefits. This press release also presents certain results for 2011 and 2012 both with and without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and the impact of a tax refund in 2011. The presentation of results that excludes these items, as well as the presentation of free cash flow, are non-GAAP financial measures that should be considered in addition to, and should not be considered superior to, or as a substitute for, the presentation of results determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the accompanying tables of financial information. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures enable management and investors to understand and analyze the company´s performance by providing meaningful information relevant to certain events and foreign currency fluctuations that impact the comparability of underlying business results from period to period. Management has adjusted for impairment of goodwill and other assets, which relates to the company´s European retail and catalog businesses, and accelerated tradename amortization, which relates to rebranding of the company´s Australian business, because such charges are non-cash and because the timing and amount of such charges are inconsistent and cannot be predicted or planned for. Management has adjusted for restructuring charges, which relate to severance and other costs associated with European restructuring and the planned closure of retail stores in the U.S., and the establishment of valuation allowances, which relates to previously recorded deferred tax assets in the company´s European retail and catalog businesses, because the exclusion of such amounts facilitates the comparison of the company´s financial results to its historical operating results. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the operating results of the company´s business against prior year results and its operating plan, and to forecast and analyze future periods. Management recognizes there are limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as they may reduce comparability with other companies that use different methods to calculate similar non-GAAP measures. Management generally compensates for the limitations resulting from the exclusion of these items by considering the impact of these items separately in GAAP as well as non-GAAP results. In addition, management presents the most comparable GAAP measures ahead of non-GAAP measures and provides a reconciliation that indicates and describes the adjustments made.
Comunicación colectiva en el día de hoy
La empresa realizará una comunicación colectiva hoy a las 8:00 h de la mañana (hora europea) para analizar estos resultados y previsiones. Los inversores están invitados a escuchar la comunicación en http://investor.staples.com.

Free cash flow is not defined under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, it should not be considered a substitute for income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expenditures. The company believes free cash flow is a useful measure of performance and uses this measure as an indication of the company´s ability to generate cash and invest in its business.
