DENTSPLY International Reports First Quarter 2014 Results

First quarter adjusted earnings per diluted share grew 13.5% to $0.59
Adjusted operating margins for the first quarter expanded 150 basis points to 17.7%

York, PA - May 6, 2014 - DENTSPLY International Inc. (NASDAQ: XRAY) today announced sales and earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

First Quarter Results

Net sales in the first quarter of 2014 of $730.1 million decreased slightly from $732.1 million in the first quarter of 2013. Net sales, excluding precious metals content, were a record for the first quarter at $689.2 million and increased 2.5% from $672.7 million in the first quarter of 2013. Sales growth in local currencies was strongest in the rest of world regions, while U.S. sales grew modestly and European sales contracted slightly.

Net income attributable to DENTSPLY International for the first quarter of 2014 was $72.9 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, compared to $71.7 million, or $0.49 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2013. On an adjusted basis, excluding certain items, earnings per share increased 13.5% to $0.59 per diluted share from $0.52 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2013. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure to earnings per share calculated on a GAAP basis is provided in the attached table.

Bret Wise, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated “We are pleased to report double-digit adjusted earnings per share growth in the first quarter driven by operating margin expansion, despite slow market conditions in certain regions. We are accelerating our efforts to leverage our global platform and cost structure to drive higher financial returns. We are slightly ahead of our earnings growth expectations for the start of the year, and are anticipating making some important investments to enhance our long-term growth and profitability. Accordingly, we now expect adjusted earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $2.47 to $2.55 for the full year 2014.”

Non-US GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with US GAAP, the Company provides adjusted net income attributable to DENTSPLY International and adjusted earnings per diluted common share. The Company discloses adjusted net income attributable to DENTSPLY International to allow investors to evaluate the performance of the Company’s operations exclusive of certain items that impact the comparability of results from period to period and certain large non-cash charges related to purchased intangible assets. The Company believes that this information is helpful in understanding underlying operating trends and cash flow generation. The adjusted net income attributable to DENTSPLY International consists of net income attributable to DENTSPLY International adjusted to exclude the impact of the following:

(1) Acquisition related costs. These adjustments include costs related to integrating recently acquired businesses and specific costs related to the consummation of the acquisition process. These costs are irregular in timing and as such may not be indicative of past and future performance of the Company and are therefore excluded to allow investors to better understand underlying operating trends.





(2) Restructuring and other costs. These adjustments include both costs and income that are irregular in timing, amount and impact to the Company’s financial performance. As such, these items may not be indicative of past and future performance of the Company and are therefore excluded for the purpose of understanding underlying operating trends.
(3) Amortization of purchased intangible assets. This adjustment excludes the periodic amortization expense related to purchased intangible assets. Beginning in 2011, the Company began recording large non-cash charges related to the values attributed to purchased intangible assets. These charges have been excluded from adjusted net income attributed to DENTSPLY International to allow investors to evaluate and understand operating trends excluding these large non-cash charges.
(4) Income related to credit risk and fair value adjustments. These adjustments include both the cost and income impacts of adjustments in certain assets and liabilities that are recorded through net income which are due solely to the changes in fair value and credit risk. These items can be variable and driven more by market conditions than the Company’s operating performance. As such, these items may not be indicative of past and future performance of the Company and therefore are excluded for comparability purposes.
(5) Certain fair value adjustments related to an unconsolidated affiliated company. This adjustment represents the fair value adjustment of the unconsolidated affiliated company’s convertible debt instrument held by the Company. The affiliate is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The fair value adjustment is driven by open market pricing of the affiliate’s equity instruments, which has a high degree of variability and may not be indicative of the operating performance of the affiliate or the Company.
(6) Income tax related adjustments. These adjustments include both income tax expenses and income tax benefits that are representative of income tax adjustments mostly related to prior periods, as well as the final settlement of income tax audits. These adjustments are irregular in timing and amount and may significantly impact the Company’s operating performance. As such, these items may not be indicative of past and future performance of the Company and therefore are excluded for comparability purposes.
Adjusted earnings per diluted common share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income attributable to DENTSPLY International by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding. Adjusted net income attributable to DENTSPLY International and adjusted earnings per diluted common share are considered measures not calculated in accordance with US GAAP, and therefore are non-US GAAP measures. These non-US GAAP measures may differ from other companies. Income tax related adjustments may include the impact to adjust the interim effective income tax rate to the expected annual effective tax rate. The non-US GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
