Orthofix International Reports Third Quarter 2017 Financial Results

Third Quarter Highlights

LEWISVILLE, Texas — October 30, 2017 — Orthofix International N.V. (NASDAQ:OFIX) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017.  Net sales were $105.2 million, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.18 and adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.42.  

“We continue to execute on our strategy of increasing the organic growth and profitability of each of our four strategic business units while rationalizing corporate costs in all areas. This has resulted in an accelerating sales growth rate each quarter thus far this year, and positioned us for solid mid-single digit organic revenue growth and the opportunity for meaningful margin expansion in the years to come,” said Brad Mason, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Financial Results Overview

The following table provides net sales by strategic business unit (“SBU”):

Gross profit increased $2.9 million to $81.5 million. Gross margin decreased to 77.5% compared to 79.8% in the prior year period due primarily to sales mix, the impact of converting to stocking distributors in Brazil in our Extremity Fixation SBU, and $0.6 million of non-recurring expenses relating to our U.S. restructuring plan. Non-GAAP net margin, an internal metric that we define as gross profit less sales and marketing expenses, was $34.0 million compared to $36.9 million in the prior year period. The decrease in non-GAAP net margin was primarily due to higher commission expenses from geographic mix in Extremity Fixation and higher rates from Spine Fixation and Biologics distributors, as well as increased sales and use tax benefits realized in the third quarter of 2016.

Net income from continuing operations was $3.3 million, or $0.18 per share, compared to $10.4 million, or $0.56 per share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income from continuing operations was $7.7 million, or $0.42 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $6.6 million, or $0.36 per share in the prior year period.

EBITDA was $14.5 million, compared to $14.1 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $21.1 million, or 20.1% of net sales, for the third quarter, compared to $23.5 million, or 23.9% of net sales, in the prior year period.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents were $53.9 million compared to $39.6 million as of December 31, 2016. As of September 30, 2017, we had no outstanding indebtedness and borrowing capacity of $125 million. Cash flow from operations was $23.5 million, a decrease of $14.9 million, and free cash flow was $10.2 million, a decrease of $13.9 million when compared to the prior year period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following tables present reconciliations of net income (loss) from continuing operations, earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations, gross profit, and net cash from operating activities, in each case calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), to, as applicable, non-GAAP financial measures, referred to as "EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted net income from continuing operations," "Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations," "Non-GAAP net margin" and "Free cash flow" that exclude items specified in the tables. A more detailed explanation of the items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as why management believes the non-GAAP financial measures are useful to them, is included following the reconciliations.

Non-GAAP Measures:

Constant Currency

Constant currency is a non-GAAP measure, which is calculated by using foreign currency rates from the comparable, prior-year period, to present net sales at comparable rates. Constant currency can be presented for numerous GAAP measures, but is most commonly used by management to analyze net sales without the impact of changes in foreign currency rates.

EBITDA

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by adding interest income (expense), net; income tax expense; and depreciation and amortization to net income (loss) from continuing operations. EBITDA provides management with additional insight to its results of operations.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations

These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional insight to its results of operations and are calculated using the following adjustments:

Non-GAAP Net Margin

Non-GAAP net margin is an internal non-GAAP metric, which we define as gross profit less sales and marketing expense. Non-GAAP net margin is the primary metric used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker in managing our business.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flow from operating activities. Free cash flow is an important indicator of how much cash is generated or used by our normal business operations, including capital expenditures. Management uses free cash flow as a measure of progress on its capital efficiency and cash flow initiatives.

Usefulness and Limitations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance period-over-period, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to assess performance relative to competitors and to establish operational goals and forecasts that are used in allocating resources. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as the basis for assessing the ability of the underlying operations to generate cash. In addition, management uses these non-GAAP measures to further its understanding of the performance of our business units.

Material Limitations Associated with the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP measures used in this press release may have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a replacement for GAAP financial measures. Some of the limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude items that reflect an economic cost and can have a material effect on cash flows. Similarly, certain non-cash expenses, such as share-based compensation, do not directly impact cash flows, but are part of total compensation costs accounted for under GAAP.

Compensation for Limitations Associated with Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We compensate for the limitations of our non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance. The GAAP results provide the ability to understand our performance based on a defined set of criteria. The non-GAAP measures reflect the underlying operating results of our businesses, which we believe is an important measure of our overall performance. We provide a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to our most directly comparable GAAP measures, and encourage investors to review this reconciliation.

Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Investors

We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by senior management in its financial and operational decision-making. Management believes it is important to provide investors with the same non-GAAP metrics it uses to supplement information regarding the performance and underlying trends of our business operations in order to facilitate comparisons to its historical operating results and internally evaluate the effectiveness of our operating strategies. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates comparisons of our underlying operating performance with other companies in the industry that also supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.
