Adam Norwitt, Amphenol president and CEO, said, “We are pleased to report strong first quarter results with sales up 10% and EPS (excluding one-time items) up 13% over the comparable 2012 quarter. The sales growth was driven by increases in nearly all of our served markets led by mobile devices, commercial aerospace, broadband communications and industrial, with contributions from both organic growth and our acquisition program. This strong growth is further confirmation of the significant benefits of the company’s technology leadership and diversification. We are especially encouraged to have achieved strong orders of $1.120 billion in the first quarter, representing a book-to-bill of 1.04 to 1. In addition, it is extremely rewarding that the company’s unique entrepreneurial culture continues to drive an unwavering focus on profitability, resulting in an operating margin improvement of 30 basis points over the prior year quarter to 19.2.”
