2017 Guidance:

The fiscal year 2017 financial results are expected to be characterized by two distinct phases, as revenue and profitability are expected to be impacted by the Company’s XT Series product introduction transition and manufacturing ramp up:

A. The first phase encompasses the introduction and ramp up of manufacturing for the XT Series in the first quarter of 2017, with anticipated dynamics including:

  • Conversion of G4 product bookings and backlog, and sales quotes to XT Series bookings;
  • XT Series manufacturing volume ramp up;
  • Installation of the XT Series product at launch customers;
  • XT Series manufacturing ramp up cost;
  • Reduction of workforce by approximately 100 positions, and the closure of the Company’s Tennessee office; and
  • General hiring delays

For the first quarter of 2017, the Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be between $150 million and $155 million. Omnicell expects first quarter of 2017 non-GAAP earnings to be between $0.00 and $0.04 per share.

B. The second phase encompasses the acceleration of installations and conversion of product backlog into revenue during the second through the fourth quarters of 2017, with anticipated dynamics including:

  • Launch of Acudose-Rx® on XT Series;
  • Improvement of XT Series production cost;
  • Above 20% growth rate for product bookings;
  • Return to 8%-12% revenue organic growth range rate;
  • XT Series cost of sales reductions as revenue ramps up;
  • Continuation of cost reduction initiatives; and
  • Implement development and manufacturing Centers of Excellence (''COEs”)

As part of the next phase of the integration of the acquisition of Aesynt the Company is creating the following Centers of Excellence (“COEs”) for product development, engineering, and manufacturing:

  • the Point of Use COE in California;
  • the Robotics and Central Pharmacy COE in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and
  • the Medication Adherence Consumables COE in St. Petersburg, Florida

The Company today announced a reduction of its workforce by approximately 100 full-time employees, or about 4% of its total headcount, anticipated to be completed in the first quarter of 2017. This reduction in force includes the closure of the Company’s Nashville, Tennessee office, anticipated in the first quarter of 2017, and the closure of the Company’s manufacturing facility in Slovenia, anticipated in the third quarter of 2017. The Company expects to incur approximately $4 million of restructuring expenses in connection with the reduction in force for one-time termination benefits, comprised principally of severance. The Company expects to incur approximately an additional $4 million of restructuring expenses in connection with facility leases, dilapidation, and other one-time facilities-related expenses.

For the second through the fourth quarters of 2017, the Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be between $590 million and $605 million, representing 8%-12% growth both on a reported and organic basis. For the second through fourth quarters of 2017, the Company expects non-GAAP earnings to be between $1.32 and $1.38 per share, representing above 15% growth, both on a reported and organic basis.

For the year 2017, Omnicell expects product bookings to be between $570 million and $590 million. The Company expects non-GAAP revenue to be between $740 million and $760 million, and non-GAAP earnings to be between $1.32 and $1.42 per share.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Our management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to Omnicell’s GAAP results, we also consider non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per diluted share. Additionally, we calculate Adjusted EBITDA (another non-GAAP measure) by means of adjustments to GAAP Net Income. These non-GAAP results should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit, operating expenses, net income, net income per diluted share, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We present these non-GAAP results because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of Omnicell’s performance.

Our non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share are exclusive of certain items to facilitate management’s review of the comparability of Omnicell’s core operating results on a period to period basis because such items are not related to Omnicell’s ongoing core operating results as viewed by management. We define our “core operating results” as those revenues recorded in a particular period and the expenses incurred within that period that directly drive operating income in that period. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because, in addition to meaningful supplemental information regarding operating performance, the measures give us a better understanding of how we should invest in research and development, fund infrastructure growth and evaluate the effectiveness of marketing strategies. In calculating the above non-GAAP results, management specifically adjusted for the following excluded items:

a) Stock-based compensation expense. We excluded from our non-GAAP results the expense related to equity-based compensation plans as they represent expenses that do not require cash settlement from Omnicell.

b) Intangible assets amortization from business acquisitions. We excluded from our non-GAAP results the intangible assets amortization expense resulting from our past acquisitions. These non-cash charges are not considered by management to reflect the core cash-generating performance of the business and therefore are excluded from our non-GAAP results.

c) Amortization of debt issuance cost. Debt issuance cost represents costs associated with the issuance of Term Loan and Revolving Line of Credit facilities. The cost includes underwriting fees, original issue discount, ticking fee, and legal fees. This non-cash expense is not considered by management to reflect the core cash-generating performance of the business and therefore is excluded from our non-GAAP results.

d) Acquisition accounting impact related to deferred revenue. In connection with acquisition of Aesynt, business combination rules require us to account for the fair values of arrangements for which acceptance has not been obtained, and post installation support has not been provided in our purchase accounting. The non-GAAP adjustment to our revenues is intended to include the full amounts of such revenues. We believe the adjustment to these revenues is useful as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business.

e) Inventory fair value adjustments. In connection with acquisition of Aesynt, business combination rules require us to account for the fair values of inventory acquired in our purchase accounting. The non-GAAP adjustment to the cost of revenues is intended to include the impact of such adjustment. We believe the adjustment is useful as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business.

f) Acquisition related expenses. We excluded from the non-GAAP results the expenses which are related to the recent acquisitions.
