PLAINSBORO, N.J., July 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ:IART), a leading global medical technology company, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2017.

Highlights:

  • The company is tightening full-year 2017 revenue guidance to a new range of $1.125 billion to $1.140 billion, reflecting changes in foreign currency expectations and overperformance in Derma Sciences.  The company is also revising 2017 full-year organic sales growth to a new range of 6.0% to 7.0% from its previous guidance of 7.0% to 8.5%, which reflects expectations for lower organic sales growth from Dural Repair;
  • The company is maintaining previously issued 2017 full-year GAAP and adjusted earnings per share guidance;
  • Second quarter revenue increased 13.2% over the prior year quarter to $282.2 million, and organic revenue increased 4.6%. Derma Sciences contributed $23.8 million of revenue to second quarter results;
  • Second quarter GAAP gross margin increased 80 basis points over the prior year’s quarter to 64.9% due to lower purchase accounting adjustments from the TEI acquisition. Adjusted gross margin decreased 80 basis points to 68.4%, primarily due to dilution from Derma Sciences;
  • Second quarter GAAP net income decreased by $1.9 million to $10.8 million compared to the prior year’s second quarter, largely because of acquisition and integration expenses. Adjusted net income increased 17.0% to $35.4 million based on higher revenues, G&A expense leverage and a lower tax rate; and
  • Second quarter Operating cash flow was $28.9 million, a decrease from $38.1 million in the prior year’s quarter largely resulting from higher cash outlays for acquisition and integration expenses.  Trailing twelve month free cash flow conversion was 72.4%, compared to 59.8% in the prior-year period.

Total revenues for the second quarter were $282.2 million, reflecting an increase of $32.9 million, or 13.2%, over the second quarter of 2016. Sales in Orthopedics and Tissue Technologies increased by 34.2%, which includes the acquired sales from Derma Sciences and strength in our regenerative product portfolio. Sales in Specialty Surgical Solutions increased 1.1% compared to the prior-year period.

Excluding the revenue contribution from acquisitions and the effect of currency exchange rates and discontinued products, revenues increased 4.6% over the second quarter of 2016.

“Profitability and cash flows were strong in the second quarter, while revenues came in at the low end of our guidance range,” said Peter Arduini, Integra’s president and chief executive officer. “While Dural Repair underperformed, new product introductions and acquisitions performed well, giving us confidence that revenue growth will accelerate in the second half of this year. We also made significant progress on the planned acquisition of Codman Neurosurgery, and look forward to closing the transaction in the fourth quarter.”

The company reported GAAP net income of $10.8 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2017, compared to a GAAP net income of $12.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the prior year’s quarter. The year-over-year declines largely resulted from acquisition and integration expenses associated with the Derma Sciences and Codman Neurosurgery transactions.

The adjusted measures discussed below are computed with the adjustments to GAAP reporting set forth in the attached reconciliation.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2017 was $62.7 million, or 22.2% of revenue, compared to $54.6 million, or 21.9% of revenue, in the second quarter of 2016. The adjusted EBITDA margin in the second quarter of 2017 includes over 100 basis points of dilution from Derma Sciences.

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2017 was $35.4 million, an increase of 17.0% over the prior year, and compares to adjusted net income of $30.3 million in the second quarter of 2016. Adjusted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2017 was $0.45, an increase of 12.5% over the prior year quarter.

2017 Full-Year Outlook

The company is tightening full-year 2017 revenue guidance to a new range of $1.125 billion to $1.140 billion, from $1.120 billion to $1.140 billion, reflecting changes in foreign currency expectations and overperformance in Derma Sciences. The company is maintaining its full-year GAAP and adjusted earnings per share guidance ranges of $0.49 to $0.55 and $1.88 to $1.94, respectively.

Based on second quarter results and the outlook for the remainder of the year, the company is lowering its full-year 2017 organic revenue growth range to 6.0% to 7.0%, down from its previous range of 7.0% to 8.5%, which reflects slower growth in Dural Repair.

“Despite the temporary slowdown in Specialty Surgical organic growth, we were pleased with the strong profitability generated in the quarter, which led to adjusted net income growth of 17.0% versus the prior year’s quarter and a double-digit increase in adjusted earnings per share,” said Glenn Coleman, Integra’s chief financial officer. “New product introductions including several regenerative products, the Cadence (R) Total Ankle System and the CUSA(R) Clarity are expected to drive organic growth acceleration in the second half of the year.”

In the future, the company may record, or expects to record, certain additional revenues, gains, expenses, or charges as described in the Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures below which will be excluded from the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share for historical periods and in adjusted earnings per share guidance.

These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures

In addition to our GAAP results, we provide organic revenues, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion.  Organic revenues consist of total revenues excluding the effects of currency exchange rates, acquired revenues and product discontinuances.  Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income from continuing operations, excluding: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) other income (expense); (iii) interest income and expense; (iv) income taxes; and (v) those operating expenses also excluded from adjusted net income.  The measure of adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income from continuing operations, excluding: (i) global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) implementation charges; (ii) structural optimization charges; (iii) certain employee severance charges; (iv) acquisition-related charges; (v) convertible debt non-cash interest; (vi) intangible asset amortization expense; and (vii) discontinued product lines charges; and (viii) income tax impact from adjustments and other items.  The measure of adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding is calculated by adding the economic benefit of the convertible note hedge transactions relating to Integra’s 2016 convertible notes.  The adjusted earnings per diluted share measure is calculated by dividing adjusted net income attributable to diluted shares by adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding.  The measure of free cash flow consists of GAAP net cash provided by continuing operating activities from continuing operations less purchases of property and equipment.  The adjusted free cash flow conversion measure is calculated by dividing free cash flow by adjusted net income.

Reconciliations of GAAP revenues to adjusted revenues and GAAP Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net income, and GAAP earnings per diluted share to adjusted earnings per diluted share all for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the free cash flow and free cash flow conversion for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the twelve months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, appear in the financial tables in this release.

The Company believes that the presentation of organic revenues and the various adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.  For further information regarding why Integra believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses these measures, and some of the limitations associated with the use of these measures, please refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K regarding this earnings press release filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  This Current Report on Form 8-K is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on our website at www.integralife.com.
