Management Comment
Exactech CEO and President David Petty said, “Total sales were up 4% to $57.9 million in the third quarter and up 5% to $185.1 million for the first nine months. Continuing double-digit strength in our shoulder segment resulted in our extremities implant revenue emerging as our largest revenue segment in the quarter with an increase of 23% to $18.6 million. This surpassed revenue in our knee segment, which decreased 2% to $18.1 million year over year in the quarter. Sluggish knee sales in Europe and the U.S. contributed to the knee revenue performance. Our hip segment continued to perform well with a 4% gain to $10.2 million, and we experienced weakness in our other segments. Net income slipped 6% to $3.0 million reflecting a $923,000 negative foreign exchange swing as compared to the third quarter of last year.

“U.S. sales for the quarter were up 2% to $40.0 million compared with $39.1 million in the third quarter a year ago. International sales increased 8% to $17.9 million. U.S. sales represented 69% of total sales and international sales were 31% of the total. For the first nine months of 2014, U.S. sales rose 5% to $123.8 million compared with $117.9 million in 2013, representing 67% of total sales. International sales increased 6% to $61.2 million and remained at 33% of total sales,” Petty said.

Chief Financial Officer Jody Phillips said, “Gross margins remained at 71% for each of the third quarters for 2014 and 2013. Total operating expenses for the third quarter increased 2% to $35.4 million and as a percentage of sales decreased to 61% from 62% resulting in an operating profit increase of 14% to $5.5 million. Our balance sheet remained strong with a further decrease in long-term debt reflecting healthy cash flow.

Looking forward, Exactech updated its 2014 revenue guidance to $247-$249 million and its diluted EPS target to $1.14-$1.16. For the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2014, the company said it anticipates revenues of $62-$64 million and diluted EPS of $0.33-$0.35 The foregoing statements regarding targets for the quarter and full year are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. These are the company’s targets, not predictions of actual performance.
