Integra LifeSciences Reports Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results

PLAINSBORO, N.J., Oct. 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: IART), a leading global medical technology company, today reported financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2018.

Third Quarter 2018 Consolidated Results

  • Reported revenue was $365.9 million, an increase of 31.2% compared to the third quarter of 2017 with the acquisition of Codman contributing $78.9 million, and organic revenues increased 6.2% over the third quarter of 2017;
  • GAAP earnings per share was $0.15, compared to $0.04 in the third quarter of 2017;
  • Adjusted earnings per share was $0.59, reflecting an increase of 31.1% compared to the third quarter of 2017;
  • The company is revising its full-year 2018 guidance as follows:
    • Total revenue is now expected to be a range of $1.467 billion to $1.472 billion (previously $1.475 billion to $1.490 billion);
      • Guidance range reflects lower forecasted revenue from extremities orthopedics, Codman revenue in select countries outside the U.S. where commercial operations have not yet transferred to Integra (“Day 2 Countries”), and a lower foreign currency benefit;
    • Organic revenue growth guidance is now expected to be approximately 4% (previously approximately 5%);
  • The company is reiterating its full-year 2018 GAAP earnings per share of $0.71 to $0.77 and adjusted earnings per share of $2.36 to $2.42.

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2018 were $365.9 million, reflecting an increase of 31.2% over the third quarter of 2017. Sales in the Codman Specialty Surgical segment increased 45.1% compared to the third quarter of 2017, driven by the Codman acquisition and strong performance in the Dural Access and Repair, Advanced Energy, and Neuro Monitoring businesses.  Sales in the Orthopedics and Tissue Technologies segment increased 11.2%, reflecting continued strength in our Regenerative Technologies and Private Label businesses.

Total organic revenues increased 6.2% over the third quarter of 2017, excluding acquisitions, divestitures and the effect of currency exchange rates.

“Despite some revenue softness in the second half of the year, we continue to make solid progress with the Codman integration and the channel expansion efforts, particularly in Regenerative Technologies,” said Peter Arduini, Integra’s president and chief executive officer.  “We remain confident that 2019 organic sales will grow within our targeted long-term range of 5% to 7% and accelerate from our full-year 2018 results.”

The company reported GAAP net income of $13.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2018, compared to GAAP net income of $3.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2017. The increase in GAAP net income is a result of higher revenues, better operating expense leverage and a lower tax rate.

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

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2018 was $84.3 million, or 23.0% of revenue, compared to $63.0 million, or 22.6% of revenue, in the third quarter of 2017. The margin improvement was largely based on better operating expense leverage, mostly from selling, general and administrative costs.

Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2018 was $50.6 million, an increase of 40.2% from the prior year’s third quarter. Adjusted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2018 was $0.59, an increase of 31.1% over the prior year’s quarter.

2018 Full-Year Outlook

The company is revising its full-year 2018 total revenue guidance to a new range of $1.467 billion to $1.472 billion.  This includes an expectation for organic growth of approximately 4% for the full year 2018 versus the previous guidance of approximately 5%.

The company is reiterating its full-year 2018 GAAP earnings per share guidance range of $0.71 to $0.77, and adjusted earnings per share guidance range of $2.36 to $2.42.

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.

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, 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 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) hurricane related expenses; (ii) structural optimization charges; (iii) acquisition- and integration-related charges; (iv) litigation charges; (v) intangible asset amortization expense; (vi) discontinued product lines charges; (vii) income tax impact from adjustments; and (viii) impairment charges.  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 from 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 September 30, 2018 and 2017, and the free cash flow and free cash flow conversion for the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 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.  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.
