STERICYCLE, INC. REPORTS RESULTS

FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2013


Lake Forest, Illinois, April 24, 2013—Stericycle, Inc. (NASDAQ:SRCL), today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2013.


Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $513.8 million, up 11.7% from $460.1 million in the first quarter last year.  Acquisitions contributed approximately $37.1 million to the current period’s growth in revenues.  Revenues increased 12.6% compared to the prior period when adjusted for unfavorable foreign exchange impacts of $4.2 million.  Gross profit was $232.1 million, up 13.0% from $205.3 million in the first quarter last year.  Gross profit as a percent of revenue was 45.2% compared with 44.6% in the first quarter of 2012.


The following table shows our revenues reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) after adjustments for unfavorable foreign exchange and to exclude revenues in the period from acquisitions that closed within the preceding 12 months and our regulated recall and returns management services:

* For internal purposes, we exclude the impact of foreign exchange and revenues attributed to acquisitions closed within the preceding 12 months and from our regulated recall and returns management services when we evaluate organic revenue growth. This table and the Company’s internal use of non-GAAP adjusted revenues are not intended to imply, and should not be interpreted as implying, that non-GAAP adjusted revenues are a better measure of internal growth or the Company’s performance, as compared to GAAP revenues.




 Net income attributable to Stericycle for the first quarter of 2013 was $74.6 million or $0.85 per diluted share compared with $64.9 million or $0.75 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2012.  Net income attributable to Stericycle for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 includes acquisition expenses, integration costs, adjustments of contingent consideration to fair value, and other items.  Excluding the effect of these items, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.88 for the current quarter (see table below).  Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share increased 11.5% from non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.79 in the first quarter of 2012.

* In accordance with GAAP, reported earnings per share (EPS) includes the after-tax impact of the items identified in this table. For internal purposes, including the determination of management compensation, the Company excludes these items from results when evaluating operating performance. This table and the Company’s internal use of non-GAAP earnings per share are not intended to imply, and should not be interpreted as implying, that non-GAAP earnings per share is a better measure of performance than GAAP earnings per share.


Cash flow from operations was $98.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Safe Harbor Statement: Statements in this press release may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control (for example, general economic conditions). Our actual results could differ significantly from the results described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such differences include changes in governmental regulation of medical waste collection and treatment and increases in transportation and other operating costs, as well as the other factors described in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate future results or trends. We make no commitment to disclose any subsequent revisions to forward-looking statements.
