Tornier Reports Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results

AMSTERDAM–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Tornier N.V. (NASDAQ: TRNX), a global medical device company focused on providing surgical solutions to orthopaedic extremity specialists, reported sales of $65.2 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to sales of $54.6 million for the second quarter 2010, an increase of 19.4% as reported and 12.2% in constant currency. Year to date sales were reported at $134.6 million compared to sales of $116.4 million in the first half of 2010, an increase of 15.6% as reported and 12.1% in constant currency. Second quarter 2011 sales of Tornier’s extremity product categories increased 19.3% as reported, 14.4% in constant currency over the prior year’s second quarter, and represented 78% of reported global sales.

“Our second quarter operating results met our expectations and we remain on track to demonstrate continued improvement in adjusted EBITDA for the full year, while maintaining our commitment to innovation, evidence-based medicine, and clinical education.”

Douglas W. Kohrs, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tornier, commented, “We are pleased to report double digit constant currency growth in the second quarter despite a challenging health care utilization environment. Upper extremities lead our global growth as the new Aequalis™ Ascend™ shoulder arthroplasty system continues to exceed our expectations while our flagship Aequalis™family of shoulder arthroplasty systems continues to grow. We also recognized double digit constant currency sales growth of our lower extremity and sports medicine/biologics product categories and we continue to expect these product lines to benefit in the second half from global expansion and several new product introductions.”

The Company’s second quarter 2011 adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided later in this release, was $6.2 million or 9.6% of sales, compared to $6.0 million in the same quarter last year. For the first six months of 2011, adjusted EBITDA reached $15.4 million or 11.4% of sales, compared to $10.8 million or 9.2% of sales in the same period last year.

Mr. Kohrs continued, “Our second quarter operating results met our expectations and we remain on track to demonstrate continued improvement in adjusted EBITDA for the full year, while maintaining our commitment to innovation, evidence-based medicine, and clinical education.”

Sales and Product Review
Tornier’s second quarter 2011 constant currency sales growth of 12.2% continued to be led by its extremity product line categories which together posted constant currency growth of 14.4% over second quarter 2010. Within the extremity products group, second quarter constant currency growth of the upper extremity category was 15.1% led by the new Aequalis™ Ascend™ arthroplasty system. The recent international launch of the new Simpliciti™ stemless shoulder system is expected to contribute to upper extremity sales growth in the second half of 2011. Tornier’s lower extremity and sports medicine and biologics product categories posted constant currency sales growth rates of 11.2% and 11.8%, respectively, in the second quarter over the same quarter last year. The lower extremity product category is beginning to benefit from the expanded instrument set availability for key new products such as the Stabilis™ ankle fusion system and the Wave® calcaneal fracture system. Tornier’s sports medicine and biologics product category has seen the early benefit of the launch of theBioFiber® surgical mesh and expanded availability in our international markets. Tornier’s large joint product category again posted above market constant currency growth in the second quarter at 4.5% over the same quarter last year, primarily as the result of favorable reception to the Company’s total hip arthroplasty systems.

On a geographic basis as compared to second quarter 2010, Tornier’s second quarter 2011 sales in the United States increased by 12.1% and represented 53% of global sales. International sales increased 28.7% in the quarter as reported and 12.3% in constant currency, representing 47% of global sales.

Outlook
The Company is confirming and narrowing its previous guidance and now projects 2011 sales in the range of $260 to $265 million, representing growth of 14% to 17% as reported, and 12% to 14% in constant currency over 2010 sales. The Company projects 2011 adjusted EBITDA, as described in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided later in this release, of $29 to $32 million or 11% to 12% of total sales.

For the third quarter of 2011, the Company projects sales in the range of $57.0 to $59.0 million, representing growth of 15% to 19%, based on recent currency exchange rates, and 12% to 16% in constant currency over third quarter 2010. The Company projects adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2011 of $4.5 to $5.5 million, representing 8% to 9% of sales.
