Keysight Technologies Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2024 Results
Strong execution drives above guidance results
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) today reported financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2024.
“Keysight executed well and delivered fourth quarter revenue and earnings per share above the high end of guidance under market conditions which remained consistent with our expectations,” said Satish Dhanasekaran, Keysight’s President and CEO. “As we look ahead, the strength of our differentiated portfolio, deep engagement with customers, and the accelerating pace of technology innovation give us confidence in our ability to outperform as markets recover.”
Fourth Quarter Financial Summary
- Revenue was $1.29 billion, compared with $1.31 billion last year.
- GAAP net loss was $73 million, or $0.42 per share, compared with a GAAP net income of $226 million, or $1.28 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2023. This loss reflects a $315 million tax expense related to a new Singapore tax incentive and corresponding decrease in deferred tax assets.
- Non-GAAP net income was $288 million, or $1.65 per share, compared with $352 million, or $1.99 per share in the fourth quarter of 2023.
- Cash flow from operations was $359 million, compared with $378 million last year. Free cash flow was $328 million, compared with $340 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
- As of October 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.80 billion.
Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Summary
- Revenue was $4.98 billion, compared with $5.46 billion last year.
- GAAP net income was $0.61 billion, or $3.51 per share, compared with $1.06 billion, or $5.91 per share in fiscal 2023.
- Non-GAAP net income was $1.10 billion, or $6.27 per share, compared with $1.49 billion, or $8.33 per share in fiscal year 2023.
- Cash flow from operations was $1.05 billion, compared with $1.41 billion last year. Free cash flow was $0.91 billion, compared with $1.21 billion in fiscal year 2023.
Reporting Segments
-
Communications Solutions Group (CSG)
CSG reported revenue of $894 million in the fourth quarter, flat over last year, reflecting 4 percent growth in commercial communications driven by AI-related investment, while aerospace, defense, and government declined 6 percent versus a record high quarter last year. -
Electronic Industrial Solutions Group (EISG)
EISG reported revenue of $393 million in the fourth quarter, down 6 percent over last year, reflecting ongoing constraint in manufacturing-related customer spending.
Outlook
Keysight’s first fiscal quarter of 2025 revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.265 billion to $1.285 billion. Non-GAAP earnings per share for the first fiscal quarter of 2025 are expected to be in the range of $1.65 to $1.71. Certain items impacting the GAAP tax rate pertain to future events and are not currently estimable with a reasonable degree of accuracy; therefore, no reconciliation of GAAP earnings per share to non-GAAP has been provided. Further information is discussed in the section titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

| Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
| Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to analyze and assess the overall performance of the business, to make operating decisions and to forecast and plan for future periods. We believe that our investors benefit from seeing our results “through the eyes of management” in addition to seeing our GAAP results. This information enhances investors’ understanding of the continuing performance of our business and facilitates comparison of performance to our historical and future periods. |
| Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, including industry peer companies, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes. |
| These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The discussion below presents information about each of the non-GAAP financial measures and the company’s reasons for including or excluding certain categories of income or expenses from our non-GAAP results. In future periods, we may exclude such items and may incur income and expenses similar to these excluded items. Accordingly, adjustments for these items and other similar items in our non-GAAP presentation should not be interpreted as implying that these items are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. |
| Core Revenue is GAAP/non-GAAP revenue (as applicable) excluding the impact of foreign currency changes and revenue associated with material acquisitions or divestitures completed within the last twelve months. We exclude the impact of foreign currency changes as currency rates can fluctuate based on factors that are not within our control and can obscure revenue growth trends. As the nature, size and number of acquisitions can vary significantly from period to period and as compared to our peers, we exclude revenue associated with recently acquired businesses to facilitate comparisons of revenue growth and analysis of underlying business trends. |
| Free cash flow includes cash provided by operating activities adjusted for net investments in property, plant & equipment. |
| Non-GAAP Income from Operations, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS may include the following types of adjustments: |
|
|
|
|
| Management recognizes these items can have a material impact on our cash flows and/or our net income. Our GAAP financial statements, including our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, portray those effects. Although we believe it is useful for investors to see core performance free of special items, investors should understand that the excluded costs are actual expenses that may impact the cash available to us for other uses. To gain a complete picture of all effects on the company’s profit and loss from any and all events, management does (and investors should) rely upon the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures focus instead upon the core business of the company, which is only a subset, albeit a critical one, of the company’s performance. |
