Lantheus Medical Imaging Reports 2015 First Quarter

Financial Results

First quarter Adjusted EBITDA increases 29% to $20.6 million

DEFINITY® revenue increases 15%, growing sequentially for the eleventh consecutive quarter

No. BILLERICA, Mass. (May 5, 2015) – Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc. (“Lantheus” or “the Company”), a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of parent company Lantheus Holdings, Inc. and a global leader in developing, manufacturing, selling and distributing innovative diagnostic imaging agents and products, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Worldwide revenue for the first quarter of 2015 totaled $74.8 million, representing a 2% increase as-reported and a 4% increase on a constant-currency basis over $73.3 million reported for the first quarter of 2014.

The Company reported quarterly GAAP-earnings profitability during the first quarter of 2015 with net income totaling $700,000, an improvement of nearly $2.0 million over a net loss of $1.3 million reported for the first quarter of 2014.

Net income for the first quarter of 2015 included $3.6 million of non-cash costs associated with the Company’s previously announced campus consolidation initiative. The Company’s first quarter 2015 net income, as adjusted for the above items, totaled $4.3 million, an improvement of $5.6 million, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2014. The attached financial tables include a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to as-adjusted results.

The Company’s first quarter Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided later in this release, was $20.6 million, increasing by 29% from $16.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year.


Jeff Bailey, President and CEO commented, “We delivered a strong start to 2015, as reflected in our first quarter results. We are pleased once again with the continued strength of DEFINITY, which now has grown sequentially every quarter since mid-2012, driven by our ongoing efforts to expand the appropriate use of contrast in cardiac echo procedures. Our first quarter performance also reflects lower sales volumes but higher average selling prices and some mix shift in one customer channel, driven by a change in contract status. While we anticipate that the benefit of this change will moderate in future quarters, we are nonetheless pleased with its contribution to our strong start to 2015.”

Mr. Bailey continued, “Further contributing to our strong Q1 performance, our operating expense levels, as adjusted, declined versus the year-ago period, reflecting our continued efforts to improve operating efficiency and resulting in 190 basis points of margin improvement, as adjusted, versus the year-ago quarter. Altogether, we delivered first quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $20.6 million and free cash flow of $11.7 million for an excellent start to 2015. Looking ahead to the rest of the year, our efforts will continue to focus on initiatives that strengthen our business and improve our operating model while meeting the needs of the customers we serve.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency, net income, as adjusted, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company’s management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors. These measures may assist investors in evaluating the Company’s operations, period over period. The measures may exclude such items which may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have substantial impact on the Company’s reported results of operations for a period. Management uses these and other non-GAAP measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources and the evaluation of results relative to employee performance compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
