“Strong performance across our entire product portfolio, and in particular new product launches, drove our second quarter results,” said Peter Arduini, Integra’s president and chief executive officer. “As we near the end of the Codman integration, we are experiencing a more stable operating environment and realizing the strategic benefits of the combined organizations.”
The company reported GAAP net income of $29.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019, compared to GAAP net income of $11.4 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2018. The improvement was driven by higher revenues, lower integration costs, improved operating leverage and lower interest expense.
Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2019 was $63.4 million, an increase of 25.4% from the prior year. The increase in adjusted net income is a result of higher revenues, improved operating leverage and lower interest expense.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures
In addition to our GAAP results, we provide certain non-GAAP measures, including organic revenues, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion. Organic revenues consist of total revenues excluding the effects of currency exchange rates, revenues from current-period acquisitions and product discontinuances. Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income excluding: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) other income (expense); (iii) interest income and expense; (iv) income tax expense (benefit); and (v) those operating expenses also excluded from adjusted net income. The measure of adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income, excluding: (i) structural optimization charges; (ii) acquisition and integration-related charges; (iii) litigation charges; (iv) EU Medical Device Regulation-related charges; (v) discontinued product lines charges; (vi) intangible asset amortization expense; (vii) income tax impact from adjustments. The adjusted earnings per diluted share measure is calculated by dividing adjusted net income attributable to diluted shares by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The measure of free cash flow consists of GAAP net cash provided by operating activities 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 to adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net income, and GAAP earnings per diluted share to adjusted earnings per diluted share all for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the free cash flow and free cash flow conversion for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, appear in the financial tables in this release.
The Company believes that the presentation of organic revenues and the other non-GAAP 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.
