Owens & Minor Reports 2nd Quarter 2020 Financial Results

• Reports improved results for the 3^rd consecutive quarter
• Doubles full year adjusted EPS guidance to $1.00 to $1.20
• Reconfirms expectation of double digit adjusted EPS growth in 2021

RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE:OMI) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2020, as summarized in the table below.

“I am tremendously proud of our continued focus and intensity, resulting in improved financial performance and further strengthening our foundation for long-term profitable growth. The exceptional dedication of our teammates was demonstrated by their response to unprecedented demand for our products and flexibility in addressing the volatility of elective procedures. The way we operated is consistent with our IDEAL values and our Mission to ‘Empower our Customers to Advance Healthcare,’” said Edward A. Pesicka, President & Chief Executive Officer of Owens & Minor. “During this quarter we continued to achieve operating efficiencies and productivity improvements while expanding our Americas based manufacturing capacity, which we believe positions Owens & Minor to increase our earnings expectations for the remainder of the year. These operational improvements allow us to reconfirm double-digit adjusted EPS growth guidance for 2021, above the revised guidance for 2020. Finally, we successfully closed the Movianto sale in June, delivering on what we said we would do, and now we are better positioned to focus on and invest in our strategic pillars – Distribution, Products and Services.”

1. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share relate to continuing operations.
2. Reconciliations of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release and their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below.

2^nd Quarter 2020 Company Highlights

• Doubled adjusted net income per share compared to the second quarter of 2019.
• Delivered adjusted operating margin expansion of 68 basis points compared to prior year.
• Improved financial performance a result of:
  • Improved productivity
  • Increased manufacturing output related to PPE
  • Capitalizing on an earlier than expected increase in elective procedures
  • Favorable revenue mix
  • Continued execution and delivery of operating efficiencies
• Strong performance in Q2 has provided a line of sight to allow Owens & Minor to:
  • Double 2020 full year adjusted EPS guidance to $1.00 to $1.20
  • Reconfirm double digit adjusted EPS growth in 2021
• Generated $57 million of operating cash flow in the second quarter from increased earnings and working capital improvements.

• Continued to invest in infrastructure, services, and technology.

Financial Outlook

Subject to the key assumptions below, the Company expects adjusted net income for 2020 to be in a range of $1.00 to $1.20¹ per share. The Company also continues to believe that it remains positioned to deliver double-digit earnings growth in 2021.

Key assumptions supporting the Company’s 2020 adjusted net income per share guidance:

• Increase in PPE production capacity remains on schedule for the balance of 2020.
• Elective procedures are in line with June 2020 levels for the remainder of the year.
• Foreign exchange expected to have minimal impact for the full year.

1. On a continuing operations basis.

Although the Company does provide guidance for adjusted net income per share (which is a non-GAAP financial measure), it is not able to forecast the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP amount are not predictable, making it impracticable for the Company to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to restructuring and acquisition charges. As a result, no GAAP guidance or reconciliation of the Company’s adjusted net income per share guidance is provided. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results. The outlook is based on certain assumptions that are subject to the risk factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Dividend Information

The Board of Directors approved a third quarter 2020 dividend payment of $0.0025 per share, payable on September 30, 2020, to shareholders of record as of September 15, 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This earnings release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In general, the measures exclude items and charges that (i) management does not believe reflect Owens & Minor, Inc.'s (the “Company”) core business and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the Company’s performance, evaluate the balance sheet, engage in financial and operational planning and determine incentive compensation.

Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing the effects of items and events on its financial and operating results and in comparing the Company’s performance to that of its competitors. However, the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.
