IDEXX Laboratories Announces 2018 Second Quarter Results

 

WESTBROOK, Maine, Aug. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

  • Reports revenue growth of 14% on a reported basis and 12% on an organic basis, driven by CAG Diagnostics recurring revenue growth of 15% reported and 13% organic
  • Achieves 3,241 premium instrument placements, representing 21% year-over-year growth
  • Delivers EPS of $1.23, a 29% increase year-over-year on a reported basis or 33% on a comparable constant currency basis
  • Adjusts 2018 revenue guidance to $2,205 million - $2,230 million, reflecting reported growth of 12% - 13.5%; increases organic revenue growth outlook to 11.5% - 12.5%; offset by impacts related to strengthening of the U.S. dollar
  • Increases 2018 EPS outlook range to $4.10 - $4.20, $0.02 above the midpoint of prior guidance, as benefits from operating performance and from a lower projected effective tax rate are partially offset by negative impact of updated foreign exchange assumptions

IDEXX Laboratories, Inc.. (NASDAQ: IDXX), a global leader in veterinary diagnostics, veterinary practice software and water microbiology testing, reports revenues for the second quarter of 2018 of $581 million, an increase of 14% compared to the prior year period on a reported basis and 12% on an organic basis. Second quarter results were driven by robust global gains in Companion Animal Group ("CAG") Diagnostics recurring revenue, including strong, double-digit organic revenue growth in IDEXX VetLab® consumables and reference laboratory diagnostic and consulting services. Supporting the results were 3,241 placements of premium instruments, an unprecedented second quarter number, representing 21% year-over-year growth. Earnings per diluted share ("EPS") was $1.23 for the second quarter, representing 29% growth year-over-year on a reported basis and 33% on a comparable constant currency basis.

"The collaboration between our field-based professionals and the veterinary clinicians and practice managers they serve is driving an increased standard of pet care, and an acceleration in growth of diagnostic products and services in our customer base. Our diagnostic innovations that uncover hidden disease in our pets, and uncover it earlier, are appreciated by veterinary staff and pet owners alike," said Jonathan Ayers, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Even with the successes we have achieved to date and our double-digit organic revenue growth in the second quarter, we believe we have only set a foundation for strong growth in our unique diagnostic and software technologies worldwide for years to come."

"We intend to build on our growth momentum with augmented investment in our CAG global field direct presence in the second half of the year, with a 13% expansion in our U.S.-based field resources and a 15% increase internationally. The international investments are focused on certain markets with the highest incremental revenue and profit opportunity. We are able to make these incremental growth investments, while delivering 2018 profit performance at the high end of our long-term goals, as a result of the success of investments made in the last eighteen months and their impact on profitable organic revenue growth."

Second Quarter Performance Highlights

Companion Animal Group

CAG generated 15% reported and 13% organic revenue growth for the second quarter, supported by equivalent levels of growth in CAG Diagnostics recurring revenue growth. Veterinary software, services and diagnostic imaging systems revenues grew 11% on a reported basis and 9% on an organic basis.

  • IDEXX VetLab consumables generated reported revenue growth of 20% and organic revenue growth of 18%, driven by an expanding premium instrument base in U.S. and international markets, increasing test utilization, moderate price gains and continued strong customer retention. IDEXX VetLab premium diagnostic instrument placements were 3,241, including 1,651 Catalyst® instruments, 874 premium hematology instruments and 716 IDEXX SediVue® Dx analyzers. Growth in high economic value placements continued, as evidenced by the placement of 784 Catalysts globally in competitive or greenfield accounts, up 14% compared to strong prior year levels, including 346 placements in North America.
  • Reference laboratory diagnostic and consulting services revenue grew 15% on a reported basis and 13% on an organic basis, reflecting very strong growth in the U.S. and record levels of customer retention. Internationally, reference laboratory organic revenue growth was high single-digit, supported by higher gains in Europe.
  • Rapid assay products had reported revenue growth of 5% and organic revenue growth of 4%, supported by solid gains in the U.S. and Europe, driven by continued expansion of SNAP® 4Dx® Plus Tests, specialty and next generation products.

Livestock, Poultry and Dairy ("LPD")

LPD revenue increased 4% on a reported basis and was flat on an organic basis for the second quarter, supported by growth in recurring livestock diagnostic testing revenue in the U.S., Europe and Latin America, offset by lower revenue in Asia related to continuing soft end-market conditions, including the impact of low milk prices.

Water

Water revenue increased 11% on a reported basis and 9% on an organic basis in the second quarter, driven by high single-digit growth in the U.S., augmented by strong gains in Asia and Latin America.

Gross Profit and Operating Profit

Gross profits increased 14%, and gross margin was 57.2%, 30 basis points lower than in the prior year period. On a constant currency basis, gross margin was 35 basis points lower than in the prior year period, driven by reclassification of selected operating expenses to cost of revenue in the reference laboratory diagnostic and consulting services business, higher investments in lab information systems and employee benefits, as well as mix impacts from higher instrument revenue growth, which offset benefits from solid net price gains and ongoing productivity improvements.

Operating margin was 25.1% in the second quarter compared to 24.1% in the prior year period. On a constant currency basis, operating margin improved 110 basis points, supported by operating expense leverage. Operating expenses increased 10% on a reported basis and 7.5% on a constant currency basis in the second quarter compared to the prior year period, driven by growth in sales and marketing and R&D investments, partially offset by the reclassification referred to above.

2018 Financial Outlook

The Company is adjusting its 2018 revenue outlook to $2,205 million - $2,230 million, a reduction of $7.5 million at the midpoint compared to prior guidance, incorporating a negative impact of $20 million - $25 million related to updated foreign exchange assumptions. We expect this impact to be partially offset by operational upside reflected in a raised organic revenue growth outlook of 11.5% - 12.5%. At the foreign exchange rates assumptions noted below compared to rates in effect in 2017, we estimate that the weaker U.S. dollar will benefit full-year 2018 reported revenue growth by approximately 0.5% - 1%, and EPS by an estimated $0.01 per share, including an immaterial impact from projected net hedge gains and losses in 2018.

The Company is increasing its 2018 EPS outlook to $4.10 - $4.20 per share, reflecting an incremental $0.02 per share at the midpoint of the earlier guidance range. This higher outlook is supported by a projected $0.07 of incremental operating benefit reflecting strong revenue trends and higher expectations for annual operating margin improvement, while covering incremental investments in the global CAG business, enabling information technology and R&D. Full-year operating margin is now expected to improve 90 - 130 basis points on a reported and constant currency basis, compared to the prior year period. This operating upside, as well as an additional $0.02 per share related to a lower effective tax rate, including raised projections for 2018 share-based compensation tax benefits, are expected to exceed a projected $0.07 negative impact related to updated foreign exchange rate assumptions.

The guidance for 2018 reflects the assumption that for the remainder of 2018, the value of foreign currencies in U.S. dollars will remain at the following rates:

  • the euro at $1.14;
  • the British pound at $1.28;
  • the Canadian dollar at $0.74; and
  • the Australian dollar at $0.72;

and relative to the U.S. dollar:

  • the Japanese yen at ¥115;
  • the Chinese renminbi at RMB 6.90; and
  • the Brazilian real at R$3.95.

We are providing the following updated guidance for 2018:

Forward-looking statements are included above under "2018 Financial Outlook" and elsewhere and can be identified by the use of words such as "expects," "may," "anticipates," "intends," "would," "will," "plans," "believes," "estimates," "projected," "should," and similar words and expressions. Our forward-looking statements include statements relating to revenue growth and EPS outlooks; operating and free cash flow forecast; projected impacts of U.S. Tax Reform; projected operating expense investments, including with respect to global commercial presence, IT and R&D; projected impact of foreign currency exchange rates; and projected operating margins and expenses, capital expenditures, gains or losses from foreign currency hedges, tax and EPS benefits from share-based compensation arrangements, effective tax rates, weighted average shares outstanding and interest expense. These statements are based on management's expectation of future events as of the date of this earnings release.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following defines terms and conventions and provides reconciliations regarding certain measures used in this earnings release and/or the accompanying earnings conference call that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), otherwise referred to as non-GAAP financial measures. To supplement the Company's consolidated results presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company has disclosed non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or adjust certain items. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for its and investors' evaluation of the Company's business performance and liquidity and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of the performance of the Company's business and its liquidity and to the performance and liquidity of our peers. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company's business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Constant currency - Constant currency references are non-GAAP financial measures which exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and are consistent with how management evaluates our performance and comparisons with prior and future periods. We estimated the net impacts of currency on our revenue, gross profit, operating profit, and EPS results by restating results to the average exchange rates or exchange rate assumptions for the comparative period, which includes adjusting for the estimated impacts of foreign currency hedging transactions and certain impacts on our effective tax rates. These estimated currency changes impacted second quarter 2018 results as follows: increased revenue growth by 2%, increased gross profit growth by 2%, had an immaterial impact on gross profit margin growth, increased operating profit growth by 2%, increased operating expense growth by 2.5%, had an immaterial impact on operating profit margin growth, and increased EPS growth by 2%. Estimated currency changes are expected to increase projected full-year 2018 revenue growth by approximately 0.5%-1%, increase projected full-year 2018 CAG Diagnostics recurring revenue growth by approximately 0.5%-1%, decrease projected third quarter 2018 revenue growth by approximately 2%, reduce projected third-quarter operating margin growth by approximately 10 bps, and have an immaterial impact on full-year 2018 operating profit margin growth and projected full-year 2018 EPS growth. Constant currency revenue growth represents the percentage change in revenue during the applicable period, as compared to the prior year period, excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. See the supplementary analysis of results below for revenue percentage change from currency for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Growth and organic revenue growth - All references to growth and organic growth refer to growth compared to the equivalent prior year period unless specifically noted. Organic revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and revenue from business acquisitions. See the supplementary analysis of results below for a reconciliation of reported revenue growth to organic revenue growth for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. See the constant currency note above for the impacts of estimated currency changes to the projected full-year and third quarter 2018 organic revenue growth for the Company. The percentage change in revenue resulting from acquisitions represents incremental revenues attributable to business acquisitions that have occurred since the beginning of the prior year period. Effective January 1, 2018, we exclude only acquisitions that are considered to be a business (consistent with ASU 2017-01, "Business Combinations: (Topic 850) Clarifying the Definition of a Business") from organic revenue growth. For more detail on what acquisitions we consider to be a business in computing organic growth, please see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations, Non-GAAP Financial Measures, contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. For the calculation of projected full-year and third quarter 2018 organic revenue growth and projected full-year 2018 CAG Diagnostics recurring revenue growth, the impacts of revenue from acquisitions is immaterial. Both reported and organic revenue growth include revenue attributable to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (the "New Revenue Standard") of $15 million for the second quarter of 2018. For more detail on revenue attributable to the adoption of the New Revenue Standard, please see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Comparable constant currency EPS growth - Comparable constant currency EPS growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the tax effects of share-based compensation activity under ASU 2016-09, a one-time negative impact related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("U.S. Tax Reform"), and a discrete tax benefit related to the expected utilization of foreign tax credits. Management believes comparable constant currency EPS growth is a more useful way to measure the Company's business performance than EPS growth because it enables better period-over-period comparisons of the fundamental financial results by excluding items that vary independent of performance and provides greater transparency to investors regarding a key metric used by management. Share-based compensation activity increased second quarter 2018 EPS by $0.05 compared to $0.08 in the second quarter of 2017, and is expected to increase projected EPS by approximately $0.20 for the full-year 2018 compared to $0.30 for full-year 2017. A one-time negative impact related to the enactment of the U.S. Tax Reform for the fourth quarter of 2017, due to the deemed repatriation of the Company's foreign profits, net of the remeasurement of deferred taxes at the lower enacted corporate tax rate, reduced full-year 2017 EPS by $0.34. A discrete tax benefit related to the expected utilization of foreign tax credits in 2017 increased full-year 2017 EPS by $0.04. These impacts and those described in the constant currency note above reconcile reported EPS growth to comparable constant currency EPS growth for the Company.

Free cash flow - Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and means, with respect to a measurement period, the cash generated from operations during that period reduced by the Company's investments in property and equipment. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure because it indicates the cash the operations of the business are generating after appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in property and equipment that are required to operate the business. See the supplementary analysis of results below for our calculation of free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. To estimate projected 2018 free cash flow, we have deducted projected purchases of property and equipment (also referred to as capital expenditures) of approximately $140 million.

Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (Leverage Ratios) - Adjusted EBITDA, gross debt, and net debt are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation. Management believes that using Adjusted EBITDA, gross debt and net debt in the Adjusted EBITDA ratio is a useful and recognized measure for evaluating financial leverage. For further information on how Adjusted EBITDA, gross debt, net debt and the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio are calculated, see the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
