Bio-Rad Reports Third-Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. (NYSE: BIO and BIOb), a global leader of life science research and clinical diagnostic products, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

HERCULES, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., (NYSE: BIO and BIOb), a global leader of life science research and clinical diagnostic products, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Third-quarter 2020 net sales were $647.3 million, an increase of 15.5 percent compared to $560.6 million reported for the third quarter of 2019. On a currency-neutral basis, quarterly sales increased 14.9 percent compared to the same period in 2019. Third-quarter gross margin was 56.7 percent compared to 54.8 percent during the third quarter in 2019.

Life Science segment net sales for the third quarter were $324.0 million, an increase of 50.2 percent compared to the same period in 2019. On a currency-neutral basis, Life Science segment sales increased by 48.8 percent compared to the same quarter in 2019. Currency-neutral sales growth was primarily attributed to sales of our PCR and Droplet Digital PCR product lines, which experienced significant demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our Process Media product lines also benefitted the Life Science segment. On a geographic view, all regions experienced currency-neutral sales growth compared to the same quarter last year.

Clinical Diagnostics segment net sales for the third quarter were $322.2 million, a decrease of 5.7 percent compared to the same period in 2019. On a currency-neutral basis, net sales were down 5.9 percent versus the same quarter last year. The currency-neutral sales decrease was primarily driven by lower demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and was across most product lines and across all regions.

Income from operations during the third quarter of 2020 was $109.6 million versus $57.5 million during the same quarter last year.

Net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $1,314.8 million, or $43.64 per share on a diluted basis versus a net loss of ($258.8) million, or ($8.68) per share, on a diluted basis, during the same period in 2019. The net income (loss) for the third quarter of 2020 and 2019, respectively, was impacted by the recognition of changes in the fair market value of equity securities, primarily related to the holdings of our investment in Sartorius AG. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 was 21.9 percent, compared to 22.8 percent for the same period in 2019. The tax rates in both periods were driven by the changes in the fair market value of equity securities.

“As we anticipated, sales during the third quarter continued to be impacted both positively and negatively by the coronavirus pandemic,” said Norman Schwartz, Bio-Rad President and Chief Executive Officer. “However, we experienced increased activity and lab utilization across our customers, globally. Although the COVID-19 situation is still unpredictable, we remain focused on our core strategies as well as our contributions in response to the pandemic. We would like to recognize our employees around the world who continue to make extraordinary efforts to serve our customers during this challenging time,” he said.

A reconciliation between GAAP operating results and non-GAAP operating results is provided following the financial statements that are part of this press release. Non-GAAP adjustments include amortization of purchased intangibles; acquisition-related expenses and benefits; restructuring, impairment charges and valuation changes in equity-owned securities; gains and losses on equity-method investments; significant litigation charges or benefits and legal costs; and discrete income tax events and the income tax effect on these non-GAAP adjustments.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted income per share (non-GAAP EPS) are non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items detailed later in this press release under the heading “Non-GAAP Reporting.”

Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $90.3 million, or $3.00 per share on a diluted basis, compared to $48.6 million, or $1.61 per share on a diluted basis, during the same period in 2019.

The non-GAAP effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 was 22.5 percent, compared to 25.5 percent for the same period in 2019. The decrease in the rate was driven by a change in our geographic mix of earnings and the taxation of our foreign earnings.

The following table represents a reconciliation of Bio-Rad’s reported net income (loss) and diluted income (loss) per share to non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted income per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019:

On a reported basis, net sales for the first three quarters of 2020 increased 4.1 percent to $1,755.8 million compared to $1,687.2 million for the same period in 2019. On a currency-neutral basis, net sales grew 5.0 percent.

Year-to-date net income for 2020 was $2,967.2 million, or $98.46 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $1,205.2 million, or $39.97 per share, respectively, during the same period in 2019. As mentioned earlier, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted overall results for the first three quarters of the year. On a non-GAAP basis net income for the first three quarters of 2020 was $196.2 million, or $6.51 per share, compared to $143.1 million, or $4.75 per share, during the same period in 2019.

“Although 2020 was met with many challenges, our team has been able to effectively respond,” Mr. Schwartz said. “As we head into the end of the year, we continue to expect a gradual improvement in our end-markets. Through our team’s discipline and tight cost control in this unique year, we expect to generate significantly higher operating profit over 2019.”

2020 Financial Outlook

The company currently believes that full-year 2020 year-over-year currency-neutral sales may be up 5.9 to 6.3 percent with an estimated non-GAAP operating margin of 16.0 to 16.5 percent. Management will discuss this outlook in greater detail on the third-quarter 2020 financial results conference call.

Use of Non-GAAP Reporting and Currency-Neutral

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, which exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, certain acquisition-related expenses and benefits, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges, valuation changes of equity-owned securities, gains and losses on equity-method investments, and significant legal-related charges or benefits and associated legal costs. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS also exclude certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, tax provisions/benefits related to the previous items, and significant discrete tax events. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

We utilize a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions, forecasting and planning for future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs. We consider the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of our business. We believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. We also believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. More specifically, management adjusts for the excluded items for the following reasons:

Amortization of purchased intangible assets: we do not acquire businesses and assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of purchase price allocated to purchased intangible assets and the term of amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition or purchase. We believe that excluding amortization of purchased intangible assets allows the users of our financial statements to better review and understand the historic and current results of our operations, and also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.

Acquisition-related expenses and benefits: we incur expenses or benefits with respect to certain items associated with our acquisitions, such as transaction costs, professional fees for assistance with the transaction; valuation or integration costs; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss on settlement of pre-existing relationships with the acquired entity; or adjustments to purchase price. We exclude such expenses or benefits as they are related to acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the operation of our on-going business.

Restructuring, impairment charges and valuation changes in equity-owned securities and gains and losses on equity-method investments: we incur restructuring and impairment charges on individual or groups of employed assets and charges and benefits arising from valuation changes in equity-owned securities and gains and losses on equity-method investments, which arise from unforeseen circumstances and/or often occur outside of the ordinary course of our on-going business. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financials, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods.

Significant litigation charges or benefits and legal costs: we may incur charges or benefits as well as legal costs in connection with litigation and other contingencies unrelated to our core operations. We exclude these charges or benefits, when significant, as well as legal costs associated with significant legal matters, because we do not believe they are reflective of on-going business and operating results.

Income tax expense: we estimate the tax effect of the excluded items identified above to determine a non-GAAP annual effective tax rate applied to the pretax amount in order to calculate the non-GAAP provision for income taxes. We also adjust for items for which the nature and/or tax jurisdiction requires the application of a specific tax rate or treatment.

From time to time in the future, there may be other items excluded if we believe that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.

Percentage sales growth in currency neutral amounts are calculated by translating prior period sales in each local currency using the current period’s monthly average foreign exchange rates for that currency and comparing that to current period sales.

There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP in the United States. Investors should review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Gain on the sale of a division (2020) and gain on the sale of a product line (2019).

(3)

Excluded items identified in the reconciliation schedule are tax effected by application of a non-GAAP effective tax rate. The non-GAAP tax provision is adjusted for items, the nature of which and/or tax jurisdiction requires the application of a specific tax rate or treatment.

2020 Financial Outlook

Forecasted non-GAAP operating margin excludes 108 basis points related to amortization of purchased intangibles. Forecasted non-GAAP operating margin does not reflect future gains and charges that are inherently difficult to predict and estimate due to their unknown timing, effect and/or significance, such as foreign currency fluctuations, future gains or losses associated with certain legal matters, acquisitions and restructuring activities.
