WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc. , a leading manufacturer and supplier of rapid diagnostic products for the consumer and professional markets, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
In the third quarter of 2006, the Company recorded net revenue of $144.9 million compared to net revenue of $106.3 million in the third quarter of 2005. The revenue increase was due to 8% currency-adjusted organic growth and to increased sales contributed by businesses acquired during 2005 and the first quarter of 2006, including BioStar, IDT and Innovacon.
For the third quarter of 2006, the net loss prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) was $9.7 million, or $0.27 per common share, compared to a net loss of $6.6 million, or $0.25 per common share, for the third quarter of 2005. The Company reported adjusted cash basis net income of $5.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2006, compared to adjusted cash basis net loss of $2.9 million, or $0.11 per common share, for the third quarter of 2005.
The Company’s GAAP results for the third quarter of 2006 include amortization of $6.4 million, the write-off of $5.0 million of in-process research and development acquired in connection with the Clondiag acquisition, a $1.2 million restructuring charge, $1.3 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and $1.3 million of prepayment penalties and a write-off of debt origination costs upon early extinguishment of related debt. GAAP results for the third quarter of 2005 include amortization of $3.2 million and a $0.7 million restructuring charge to costs of sales and operating expenses. These amounts, net of tax, have been excluded from the adjusted cash basis net income or loss per common share for the respective quarters.
A detailed reconciliation of the Company’s adjusted cash basis net income or loss, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to net loss under GAAP, as well as a discussion regarding this non-GAAP financial measure, is included in the schedules to this press release.
The Company will host a conference call beginning at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) today, November 1, 2006, to discuss these results as well as other corporate matters. During the conference call, the Company may answer questions concerning business and financial developments and trends and other business and financial matters.

In determining whether a particular item meets one of these criteria, management considers facts and circumstances that it believes are relevant. Management believes that excluding such charges and income from income or loss allows investors and management to evaluate and compare the Company’s operating results from continuing operations from period to period in a meaningful and consistent manner. Due to the frequency of their occurrence in its business, the Company does not adjust net income or loss for the costs associated with litigation, including payments made or received through settlements. It should be noted that “net income or loss on an adjusted cash basis” is not a standard financial measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss or cash flow from operating activities, as a measure of liquidity or as an indicator of operating performance or any measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. (b) Restructuring charge associated with the decision to close facilities of $1.2 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $1.2 million charge for the three months ended September 30, 2006 includes: $0.6 million charged to cost of sales, $0.3 million charged to research and development and $0.3 million charged to selling, general and administrative expense. The $0.7 million charge for the three months ended September 30, 2005 includes: $0.6 million charged to cost of sales and $0.1 million charged to selling, general and administrative expense. These charges have been excluded from net income or loss because they have a significant impact on results yet do not occur on a consistent or regular basis in the Company’s business. (c) Amortization expense of $6.4 million and $3.2 million included in the third quarter of 2006 and 2005 GAAP results, respectively, including $3.3 million and $2.0 million charged to cost of sales, $1.0 million and $0.5 million charged to research and development and $2.1 million and $0.7 million charged to selling, general and administrative expense in the respective quarters. 2006 research and development expense also includes a write-off of $5.0 million associated with the value of in process research and development costs incurred in connection with our acquisition of Clondiag.

(f) Tax effect on adjustments as discussed above in notes (b), (c) and (d). (g) For the three months ended September 30, 2006, potential diluted shares were not used in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share under GAAP because inclusion thereof would be antidilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, potential diluted shares were not used in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share under GAAP and on an adjusted cash basis because inclusion thereof would be antidilutive. (h) Included in the weighted average dilutive common shares for the calculation of net income per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2006, on an adjusted cash basis, are dilutive shares consisting of 1,523,000 common stock equivalent shares from the potential exercise of stock options and warrants.

(b) Product recall charge of $1.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005, including $1.3 million charged to cost of sales in the first six months of 2005 GAAP results, which constitutes a charge having a significant negative impact on results yet does not occur on a consistent or regular basis in our business. (c) Restructuring charge associated with the decision to close facilities of $7.7 million and $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
