Analogic Announces Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended

January 31, 2014 and Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend

Medical Imaging recovery and strong revenue growth in both Security and direct Ultrasound drive substantial gross margin improvement; management reduces fiscal 2014 outlook on market headwinds

PEABODY, Mass. (March 6, 2014) – Analogic Corporation (Nasdaq:ALOG), enabling the world’s medical imaging and aviation security technology, today announced results for its second quarter ended January 31, 2014.

Highlights during the second quarter (comparisons are against Q2 of fiscal 2013) included:

 

  Revenue of $141.4 million, up 2%

 

  Gross margin of 43%, up 3 points

 

  GAAP operating margin of 9%; Non-GAAP operating margin of 13.5%

 

  GAAP diluted EPS of $1.53, includes non-recurring tax benefits of $8.8 million, or $0.69 per diluted share

 

  Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.17

 

  Positive operating cash flow of $14.5 million

 

  510(k) application filed with FDA for new handheld ultrasound device for vascular access

Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $141.4 million, an increase of 2% compared with revenue of $138.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $19.3 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, compared with net income of $9.8 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Included in our GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 were discrete net tax benefits of $8.8 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, primarily associated with a reduction in taxes expected to be payable in the future associated with our Canadian operations.

Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter was $14.8 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, compared with $13.2 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, in the prior year’s second quarter. Our non-GAAP results do not include the tax benefit noted above. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is included as an attachment to this press release.

For the first six months of fiscal 2014, revenue totaled $251.5 million, down 3% from the same period in the prior year. Year-to-date GAAP net income was $15.5 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, compared with $14.2 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, from the same period last year. Year-to-date non-GAAP net income was $15.6 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, compared with $19.9 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, in the same period last year.

Jim Green, president and CEO, commented, “Our second quarter results demonstrated solid product revenue and gross margin expansion, partially offset by reduced engineering revenue and discontinuation of legacy products as we discussed last quarter. Our improved gross margins, which reflect the shift toward our high margin direct ultrasound business and our ongoing focus on efficiency, contributed nicely to our bottom line.”

Green continued, “With underlying product revenue growth and exciting new products launching, we remain bullish on our long term profitable growth trajectory. However, in this year, while our medical imaging business recovered from a difficult first quarter and with the headwinds in our markets, we now expect fiscal 2014 total revenue and operating margin to be roughly flat with fiscal 2013.”

Segment Revenues

Revenue from our Medical Imaging segment was $79.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, down 1% from revenue of $80.7 million in the same period of fiscal 2013. Medical Imaging revenues were slightly lower this quarter as higher product revenue in CT, MRI and Mammography was offset by the exiting of a non-strategic product line and lower customer funded engineering. Year-to-date, Medical Imaging revenue was $139.8 million, down 11% from the prior year.

Our Ultrasound segment revenue was $40.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, roughly flat from revenue of $40.5 million in the same period of fiscal 2013. Strong sales growth in our direct sales channel was offset during the quarter by lower OEM transducer sales. Year-to-date, Ultrasound revenue was $74.8 million, up 4% from the prior year.

Security Technology segment revenue was $21.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, up 25% from revenue of $17.4 million in the same period of fiscal 2013. Security revenues were up during the quarter due primarily to strong shipments of medium-speed and high-speed threat detection systems. Year-to-date, Security Technology revenue was $36.9 million, up 25% from the prior year.

Quarterly Cash Dividend

Analogic’s Board of Directors, on March 4, 2014, declared a $0.10 cash dividend for each common share for its second fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2014. The cash dividend will be payable on April 1, 2014, to shareholders of record on March 18, 2014.

UNAUDITED SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES

We provide non-GAAP income from operations, operating margin, other income, net income, and diluted net income per share as supplemental measures to reported results regarding our operational performance. These financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. The adjustments to these financial measures, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We incur expense related to share-based compensation included in the reported presentation of cost of sales, research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expense. Although share-based compensation is an expense and viewed as a form of compensation, these expenses vary in amount from period to period. In addition, fluctuations in market price and volatility of our shares, risk-free interest rates, and the expected term and forfeiture rates of the awards impact the expense period to period. A portion of our equity compensation is performance-based, which drives volatility in expense as estimated performance-based metrics are updated for actual and forecasted results. Our management team believes that exclusion of these expenses allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent between periods and allows comparisons of our operating results to those of other companies that disclose non-GAAP financial measures that exclude share-based compensation.

 

Analogic Corporation        8 Centennial Drive, Peabody, MA 01960        978-326-4000        www.analogic.com


BK Medical Distributor Matter Inquiry-Related Costs

As initially disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011, we have identified transactions involving our Danish subsidiary, BK Medical, and certain of its foreign distributors, with respect to which we have raised questions concerning compliance with law and our business policies. We have concluded that the identified transactions have been properly accounted for in our reported consolidated financial statements in all material respects. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2014 we incurred $0.6 million and $0.9 million of pre-tax inquiry-related costs, respectively. We incurred $0.3 million and $0.4 million of pre-tax inquiry-related costs during the three and six months ended January 31, 2013, respectively.

Acquisition Related Expenses

We incur amortization of intangibles and other expenses related to acquisitions. The intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over their estimated economic life. We believe the exclusion of these acquisition related expenses allow comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses. On March 2, 2013, we acquired Ultrasonix Medical Corporation and on September 20, 2013 we acquired the remaining 90% equity interest in PocketSonics, Inc. We initially purchased a 10% equity interest in PocketSonics in April 2010. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2014, we incurred pre-tax acquisition-related expenses associated with the Ultrasonix and PocketSonics acquisitions of $1.2 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The remainder relates to prior acquisitions.

Restructuring Charges

During our first half of fiscal year 2014, we continued the process of consolidating manufacturing and certain support activities currently conducted at our Ultrasonix facility in Vancouver, Canada with operations at our existing facilities, which we refer to as the Vancouver manufacturing consolidation, which began in fiscal 2013. In addition, we have undertaken other restructuring activities to further streamline our business and realize synergies, including the consolidation of our ultrasound transducer operation in Englewood, Colorado, into our other existing operations, and other efforts to further optimize our global operational footprint. Total pre-tax restructuring charges for both three and six months ended January 31, 2014 amounted to $0.3 million.

Taxes

For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, we adjust the (benefit from) provision for income taxes to tax effect the non-GAAP adjustments described above as they have a significant impact on our income tax (benefit) provision. In addition, from time-to-time, we recognize certain non-recurring tax adjustments.

During the three months ended January 31, 2014, we excluded from our non-GAAP results $8.8 million in discrete net tax benefits primarily associated with a reduction in taxes expected to be payable in the future associated with our Canadian operations. These benefits were excluded from our non-GAAP results as the significant benefit recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2014 was non-recurring and management believes not helpful in evaluating short-term and longer-term trends in our operations.

 

Analogic Corporation        8 Centennial Drive, Peabody, MA 01960        978-326-4000        www.analogic.com


Summary

We exclude the above-described expenses, their related tax impact and other non-recurring tax benefits in evaluating short-term and long-term operating trends in our operations, and allocating resources to various initiatives and operational requirements. We believe that these non-GAAP financial adjustments are useful to investors because they allow investors to evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

These non-GAAP financial measures have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
