MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Nov. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Hologic (Nasdaq: HOLX) announced today the Company’s financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2017.

Revenue of $802.9 million increased 10.5%, or 9.9% in constant currency, compared to the prior year period. Excluding the net impact of the Cynosure acquisition and blood screening divestiture, fourth-quarter revenue increased 5.0%, or 4.4% in constant currency.

GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.29 decreased (12.1%) compared to the prior year period, while non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.50 decreased (3.8%).

“We finished a successful and productive fiscal year with a strong performance in the fourth quarter, as revenue exceeded our guidance and sales growth, net of acquisitions and divestitures, accelerated on a sequential basis versus the third quarter,” said Steve MacMillan, Hologic’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “All our legacy divisions grew on a global basis net of divestitures, while our international and molecular diagnostics franchises delivered double-digit growth. For the full year, we met our financial commitments and strengthened our future by shifting our portfolio toward higher-growth markets, and by advancing our research and development pipelines.”

Quarterly revenue highlights:

  • U.S. revenue of $613.0 million increased 6.1%, and international revenue of $189.9 million increased 27.5%, or 24.7% in constant currency. Excluding blood screening and Medical Aesthetics, U.S. revenue increased 1.4%, while international revenues increased 20.8%, or 17.5% in constant currency.
  • In Diagnostics:
    • Molecular diagnostics sales of $153.5 million increased 14.3%, or 13.8% in constant currency, driven primarily by continued strength across Aptima® women’s health products globally.
    • Cytology and perinatal sales of $120.2 million decreased (0.7%), or (1.4%) in constant currency, due primarily to lower sales of perinatal products.
  • Breast Health revenue totaled $300.9 million, an increase of 2.9%, or 2.4% in constant currency, faster growth than in the third quarter.

Expense Detail

Gross margin was 52.0% on a GAAP basis, and 64.1% on a non-GAAP basis. GAAP gross margin declined by 390 basis points, while non-GAAP gross margin declined by 160 basis points. These declines were primarily related to sales mix associated with the divestiture of the higher-margin blood screening business and sales of lower-margin Cynosure products. These factors were partially offset by manufacturing efficiencies, an increase in high-margin royalty revenue, and favorable foreign exchange rates.

Operating expenses were $308.5 million on a GAAP basis, and $275.8 million on a non-GAAP basis. GAAP operating expenses increased 19.1% and non-GAAP operating expenses increased 17.1% primarily due to the inclusion of Cynosure expenses.

The quarterly effective tax rate was a benefit of (14.2%) on a GAAP basis, and a provision of 30.5% on a non-GAAP basis. The difference in these rates was primarily due to the income tax effect of statutes of limitations expiring and audit settlements related to prior years not reflected in the non-GAAP results.

Other Key Financial Results

GAAP net income for the fourth quarter was $82.7 million, a decrease of (10.3%). Adjusted non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the fourth quarter was $262.7 million, a decrease of (0.5%).

Operating cash flow for the fourth quarter was $166.5 million. Free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, was $132.9 million.

During the fourth quarter, Hologic repurchased $85.9 million in principal of its 2012 and 2013 convertible notes for a total of $106.1 million. The Company also repurchased 5.3 million shares of its common stock for $200.1 million.

Total debt outstanding at the end of the quarter was $3.3 billion. The company ended the quarter with cash and equivalents of $0.5 billion, and a net leverage ratio (net debt over adjusted EBITDA) of 2.7 times.

On a trailing 12 months basis, adjusted ROIC of 12.6% declined 10 basis points compared to the prior year period.

Financial Guidance for Fiscal 2018

“We expect to post solid, mid-single-digit organic revenue growth in fiscal 2018,” said Bob McMahon, Hologic’s Chief Financial Officer. “At the same time, after adjusting for the blood screening divestiture, we anticipate much faster EPS growth driven by healthy operating margin expansion.”

For fiscal 2018, “organic revenue” is defined as total revenue less blood screening revenue for the full year and medical aesthetics revenue for the first two quarters of fiscal 2018. Medical aesthetics revenue is included in organic revenue for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2018. In addition, organic revenue growth rates adjust for the extra selling days in Hologic’s 2017 fiscal year, and non-recurring royalty revenue in Diagnostics. Together, these two non-recurring factors are estimated to contribute approximately 100 basis points to organic growth.

Hologic’s financial guidance for fiscal 2018 is shown in the two tables immediately below. As a reminder, percentage changes versus the prior year are affected by the blood screening divestiture and the Cynosure acquisition, both of which closed in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. The guidance is based on a full year non-GAAP tax rate of approximately 31% and diluted shares outstanding of 284 million for the full year. Constant currency guidance assumes that foreign exchange rates are the same in fiscal 2018 as in fiscal 2017. Current guidance assumes that recent foreign exchange rates persist for all of fiscal 2018.

 GAAP ---- Revenue EPS ------- --- Reported % Increase Guidance $ Reported % Increase (Decrease) (Decrease) Guidance $ --- ---------- Current Guidance for 4.6% to 7.2% $3,200 to $3,280 (53.8%) to (51.9%) $1.22 to $1.27 Fiscal 2018 million ----------- ----------- --- Non-GAAP -------- Revenue EPS ------- --- Constant Reported % Guidance $ Reported % Increase Currency % Increase (Decrease) Increase (Decrease) Guidance $ (Decrease) --------- Current Guidance for 4.0% to 6.6% 4.6% to 7.2% $3,200 to 3.4% to 5.9% $2.10 to $2.15 Fiscal 2018 $3,280 million ----------- --- --- 

Hologic’s financial guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 is shown in the two tables immediately below. As a reminder, percentage changes versus the prior year period are affected by the blood screening divestiture and the Cynosure acquisition, both of which closed in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. In addition, Hologic’s first quarter of fiscal 2018 includes four fewer shipping days than the prior year period.

 GAAP ---- Revenue EPS ------- --- Reported % Increase Guidance $ Reported % Increase (Decrease) (Decrease) Guidance $ --- ---------- Current Guidance for the First 5.5% to 7.6% $775 to $790 (16.7%) to (10.0%) $0.25 to $0.27 Quarter of Fiscal 2018 million ---------------------- ---------------------- --- Non-GAAP -------- Revenue EPS ------- --- Constant Reported % Guidance $ Reported % Increase Currency % Increase (Decrease) Increase (Decrease) Guidance $ (Decrease) --------- Current Guidance for the First 4.7% to 5.5% to $775 to (7.7%) to (3.8%) $0.48 to $0.50 Quarter of Fiscal 2018 6.7% 7.6% $790 million ---------------------- --- --- ------------

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has presented the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: constant currency revenues; non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP operating expenses; non-GAAP income from operations; non-GAAP operating margin; non-GAAP interest expense; non-GAAP pre-tax income; non-GAAP net margin; non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP diluted EPS; adjusted EBITDA; and return on invested capital. Constant currency presentations show reported period operating results as if the foreign exchange rates remain the same as those in effect in the comparable prior year period. The Company defines its non-GAAP net income, EPS, and other non-GAAP financial measures to exclude, as applicable: (i) the amortization of intangible assets; (ii) additional depreciation expense from acquired fixed assets and accelerated depreciation related to business consolidation and closure of facilities; (iii) additional expense resulting from the purchase accounting adjustment to record inventory at fair value; (iv) non-cash interest expense related to amortization of the debt discount from the equity conversion option of the convertible notes; (v) restructuring and divestiture charges, facility closure and consolidation charges and costs incurred to integrate acquisitions (including retention, transaction bonuses, legal and professional consulting services) and separate divested businesses from existing operations; (vi) transaction related expenses for divestitures and acquisitions; (vii) gain on disposal of business; (viii) debt extinguishment losses and related transaction costs; (ix) the unrealized (gains) losses on the mark-to-market of forward foreign currency contracts for which the Company has not elected hedge accounting; (x) litigation settlement charges (benefits) and non-income tax related charges (benefits); (xi) other-than-temporary impairment losses on investments and realized (gains) losses resulting from the sale of investments; (xii) other one-time, non-recurring, unusual or infrequent charges, expenses or gains that may not be indicative of the Company’s core business results as detailed in our reconciliations of such adjustments; and (xiii) income taxes related to such adjustments. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as its non-GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense included in its non-GAAP net income. “Organic” presentations are non-GAAP measures that are adjusted as described under “Financial Guidance for Fiscal 2018.”

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The company’s definition of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release adjust for specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict. The company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of Hologic’s historical operating results, comparison to competitors’ operating results and determination of management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Hologic’s business.

Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease the company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.

Future Non-GAAP Adjustments

Future GAAP EPS may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments, and may also be affected by non-recurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains, which are excluded in the calculation of the Company’s non-GAAP EPS guidance as described in this press release.
