Avanos Medical, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2019 Results, Completes Acquisition of NeoMed, Inc., Announces Agreement to Acquire Substantially All the Assets of Summit Medical Products, Inc., Announces Partnership Agreement with BioQ Pharma

ALPHARETTA, Ga., Aug. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Avanos Medical, Inc. (NYSE: AVNS) today reported second quarter 2019 results and revised its full-year 2019 outlook.

(PRNewsfoto/Avanos Medical Inc.)

"I'm pleased we delivered sales and earnings in line with our expectations, driven by continued momentum in Coolief and our market-leading Chronic Care business. Last week, we went live with our new IT system, which is a major catalyst in our cost transformation and will create operating efficiency for our organization going forward," stated Joe Woody, Avanos' chief executive officer. "We continued to deploy capital to generate shareholder value, by completing the acquisition of NeoMed, Inc. and signing an agreement to acquire Summit Medical Products, a leading developer and manufacturer of electronic infusion pumps, which complements our Acute Pain business."

Woody continued, "While we continue to anticipate results will accelerate in the second half, we do expect the headwinds impacting our Acute Pain business to remain through the balance of the year. Overall, we are on track to achieve our 2019 priorities and we continue to advance our transformation."

Second Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights

  • Net sales totaled $172 million, a 7 percent increase from the prior year.
  • Net loss for the quarter was $8 million, compared to net income of $35 million in the prior year.
  • Adjusted income from continuing operations totaled $14 million, compared to $10 million a year ago.
  • Diluted earnings per share were $(0.17), compared to $0.73 a year ago.
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.28, compared to $0.20 in the prior year.
  • The company revised its full-year 2019 outlook to include the NeoMed acquisition, and now expects net sales growth of 8 to 10 percent and adjusted diluted earnings per share at the low-end of its range of $1.15 to $1.25.

Operational and Business Highlights

  • On June 18, the company approved the third and final phase of its multi-year restructuring plan, which will optimize procurement, manufacturing, and supply chain operations.
  • On July 8, the company completed the acquisition of the remaining 80.1 percent of NeoMed, Inc. for approximately $28 million. Its portfolio of enteral feeding and delivery solutions for neonatal and pediatric patients strengthens Avanos' Digestive Health franchise.
  • The company announced an agreement to acquire substantially all the assets of Summit Medical Products Inc. for approximately $18 million and the deal is expected to close in August. Summit develops and markets electronic ambulatory infusion pumps for post-surgical pain management, which complements Avanos' Acute Pain portfolio.
  • As part of the company's commitment to open innovation, it signed a partnership agreement with BioQ Pharma, which designs ready-to-use delivery systems for infusible drugs.
  • The company continued its cost structure transformation with the deployment of a new IT system in its North America and Asia Pacific regions, on August 1.

Second Quarter 2019 Operating Results
Net sales totaled $172 million, a 7 percent increase compared to the prior year, including Game Ready, which contributed 6 percent of the growth. Excluding Game Ready, continued solid demand in Chronic Care and Interventional Pain from Coolief was partially offset by lower volume in Acute Pain, resulting in 5 percent organic volume. Growth was partially offset by 3 percent unfavorable product mix and price and 1 percent unfavorable currency rates.

Operating loss was $10 million compared to income of $9 million a year ago. On an adjusted basis, operating profit totaled $20 million, compared to $16 million a year ago, which includes $9 million of costs previously allocated to the Surgical and Infection Prevention business (S&IP). Higher sales volumes were partially offset by expected dis-synergies due to the S&IP divestiture and investments in direct-to-patient advertising, clinical studies, and sales force expansion to fuel growth.

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $23 million, compared to $36 million in the prior year.

First Six Months 2019 Operating Results
Net sales totaled $336 million, a 6 percent increase compared to the comparable period in 2018, including Game Ready. Excluding Game Ready which contributed 6 percent of growth, continued demand in Interventional Pain, Digestive Health and Respiratory Health, was partially offset by lower volume in Acute Pain, resulting in 3 percent organic volume. Performance was also impacted by 2 percent unfavorable product mix and price and 1 percent unfavorable currency rates.

Operating loss was $34 million compared to a profit of $2 million in the first half of 2018. On an adjusted basis, operating profit from continuing operations totaled $30 million compared to $18 million in 2018, which includes $37 million of costs previously allocated to the S&IP business. Volume growth was offset by increased investment for growth and dis-synergies due to the S&IP business.

In the first six months, adjusted EBITDA was $37 million compared to $95 million in 2018.

Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Cash from operations less capital expenditures, or free cash flow, for the second quarter was an outflow of $55 million compared to an outflow of $108 million a year ago. The outflow was due primarily to a net loss and capital expenditures. The company's cash balance was $288 million at the end of the quarter, compared to $385 million at year-end 2018.

Total debt at the end of the second quarter was $248 million, consisting of unsecured notes, even compared to year-end 2018.

2019 Key Planning Assumptions
The company revised its full-year 2019 outlook for net sales growth, in constant currency, from 6 to 8 percent to 8 to 10 percent, which includes Game Ready and now NeoMed and adjusted diluted earnings per share from $1.15 to $1.35 to $1.15 to $1.25. Additionally, the other key planning assumptions that it provided on its year-end 2018 conference call, on February 26, remain unchanged.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables include the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures:

  • Adjusted net income
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share
  • Adjusted gross and operating profit
  • Adjusted effective tax rate
  • Adjusted EBITDA
  • Free cash flow

These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items, as applicable, for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures:

  • Expenses associated with restructuring activities, including IT-related charges.
  • Expenses associated with the divestiture of the S&IP business.
  • The gain on sale and associated expenses related to the divestiture of the S&IP business.
  • Expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets associated with prior business acquisitions.
  • The positive or negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates during the year.
  • Expenses associated with certain litigation matters.
  • Prior year charges associated with internal policy changes.
  • Certain acquisition and integration charges related to the acquisition of Game Ready and NeoMed.
  • Benefit associated with regulatory tax reform.

The company provides these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information to our GAAP financial measures. Management and the company's Board of Directors use net sales on a constant currency basis, adjusted

net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating profit, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow to (a) evaluate the company's historical and prospective financial performance and its performance relative to its competitors, (b) allocate resources and (c) measure the operational performance of the company's business units and their managers. Management also believes that the use of an adjusted effective tax rate provides improved insight into the tax effects of our ongoing business operations.

Additionally, the Compensation Committee of the company's Board of Directors will use certain of the non-GAAP financial measures when setting and assessing achievement of incentive compensation goals. These goals are based, in part, on the company's net sales on a constant currency basis and adjusted EBITDA, which will be determined by excluding certain items that are used in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial tables.
