Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Total revenues for the third quarter of 2018 increased 47 percent to $64.6 million, compared to $44.0 million for the third quarter of 2017.  The increase was primarily driven by $15.0 million in revenues from JOTEC and strong revenue growth from On-X and tissue processing.  Non-GAAP total revenues for the third quarter of 2018 increased 17 percent, compared to the third quarter of 2017, a 17 percent increase on a constant currency basis. 

Net income for the third quarter of 2018 was $1.6 million, or $0.04 per fully diluted common share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per fully diluted common share for the third quarter of 2017.  Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2018 was $3.1 million, or $0.08 per fully diluted common share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $3.1 million, or $0.09 per fully diluted common share for the third quarter of 2017.

All numbers are presented on a GAAP basis except where expressly referenced as non-GAAP.  The Company does not provide GAAP income per common share on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty business development and acquisition-related expenses, purchase accounting fair value adjustments, and any unusual gains and losses without unreasonable effort.  These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The Company's financial guidance for 2018 is subject to the risks identified below.  

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures.  Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies.  The Company's non-GAAP revenues include JOTEC revenues for the same nine-month period in 2017 prior to the closing of the acquisition of JOTEC on December 1, 2017.  The Company did not own JOTEC during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017, so the Company is unable to report its GAAP revenue growth for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017.  The Company's other non-GAAP results exclude (as applicable) business development and integration expenses, amortization expense, and inventory basis step-up expense.  The Company believes that these non-GAAP presentations provide useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions, and the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its on-going efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses and the transaction and integration expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired and divested product lines.  The Company believes it is useful to exclude certain expenses because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods as a result of factors such as acquisitions, or non-cash expense related to amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets.  The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a statement or indication that these types of expenses will not recur.

Webcast and Conference Call Information
The Company will hold a teleconference call and live webcast tomorrow, November 1, 2018 at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss the results followed by a question and answer session.  To listen to the live teleconference, please dial 201-689-8261.  A replay of the teleconference will be available through November 8, 2018 and can be accessed by calling (toll free) 877-660-6853 or 201-612-7415.  The Conference ID for the replay is 13684106.

Forward Looking Statements
Statements made in this press release that look forward in time or that express management's beliefs, expectations, or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made.  These statements include our forecasted revenues, gross margins, R&D expenses, non-GAAP income tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share; and our beliefs that our On-X and JOTEC products continue to gain momentum as our direct salesforce is effectively conveying the differentiating attributes of these products, that we expect our business momentum to continue, that we have many internal initiatives that we believe can drive substantial future growth and that we are confident we can deliver on our goals and objectives for 2018.  These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates, and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations.  These risks and uncertainties include the risk factors detailed in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2017.  CryoLife does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
