Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HRC) announced financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter ended September 30, 2012 and provided its initial outlook for 2013. Adjusted earnings per diluted share decreased 22 percent to $0.56 from $0.72 due to lower gross margin, driven by adverse product mix, and increased investment in research and development. Reported earnings per diluted share also decreased to $0.63 from $1.01 in the prior year. Adjustments relate to business restructuring, gains associated with a vendor product recall, costs associated with recent acquisitions, litigation items and non-recurring tax matters. See detail in schedule provided.
Hill-Rom's quarterly reported revenue of $432 million was flat compared to last year, but increased 2.3 percent on a constant currency basis. Domestic revenue decreased 8 percent to $286 million, while revenue outside the United States increased 20 percent to $146 million in the same period (27 percent on a constant currency basis).
For the full year, revenue was $1,634 million compared to $1,592 million for the prior year, an increase of 3 percent on an as reported basis and 4 percent on a constant currency basis. Adjusted earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2012 were $2.24 compared to $2.27 in 2011, a decrease of 1 percent. Reported earnings per diluted share for the full year were $1.94 compared to $2.09 for the prior year, a decrease of 7 percent.
Management Comments
"Despite a year that was more challenging than expected, we made two strategically significant acquisitions—Volker and Aspen Surgical—while returning approximately 30 percent of our operating cash flow to shareholders," stated John J. Greisch, President & CEO. "While our fiscal 2013 outlook assumes continued weakness in the macro environment, we plan to maintain our disciplined capital allocation strategy in order to increase shareholder value."
Financial and Operational Highlights
-- Fourth quarter revenue highlights reflect the previously announced reclassification of segments:
-- North America. This segment includes most of our former North America Acute Care segment, combined with our North America Post-Acute Extended Care and Home Care businesses. North America revenue declined 14 percent to $250 million. Capital sales declined 16 percent due primarily to lower orders and shipments of patient support systems, while rental revenue declined 10 percent. Patient support systems sales increased sequentially 7 percent, but declined 24 percent compared to the prior year due to an extraordinarily large sale recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011. Excluding the effects of that sale, patient support systems declined 9 percent versus last year.
-- International. International segment revenue, which excludes Canada, increased 20 percent to $126 million, due primarily to the impact of the Volker acquisition, along with growth in Latin America and Australia. Segment revenue increased 28 percent on a constant currency basis. Excluding Volker, International revenue increased 8 percent on a constant currency basis.
-- Surgical/Respiratory Care. This segment comprises our Allen Medical, Respiratory Care and Aspen Surgical businesses. Surgical/Respiratory Care revenue increased 63 percent to $56 million. Capital sales increased 155 percent and rental revenue decreased 15 percent versus the prior year. Excluding Aspen Surgical, segment revenue decreased 4 percent.
-- Full year operating cash flow was $262 million, compared to $223 million in the prior year.
-- Adjusted EBITDA for the year was $324 million, compared to $318 million in the prior year.
-- Consistent with its previously announced capital deployment strategy, the Company announced the expansion of its share repurchase authorization by 3.5 million shares.
-- In keeping with its commitment to optimize its portfolio, Hill-Rom implemented a plan to exit from certain portions of its Home Care business.
Please see the attached schedules for additional information, including condensed financial information, summary balance sheet, cash flow statement and reconciliations of GAAP to adjusted financial measures.
For a more complete review of Hill-Rom's results, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012, which will be filed in November.
Financial Guidance Summary
For full year fiscal 2013, Hill-Rom expects reported revenue growth of 7 to 8 percent. This reflects:
- organic constant currency revenue decline of 1 to 2 percent;
- no currency impact at current rates; and
- incremental revenue from fiscal 2012 acquisitions of approximately $145 million.
Adjusted earnings per diluted share are expected to be $1.95 to $2.05 for the full year, including approximately $0.17 per share associated with the implementation of the medical device excise tax effective January 1, 2013. Excluding this cost, adjusted earnings per diluted share would be $2.12 to $2.22.
Cash flow from operations for the full year is expected to be approximately $265 to $275 million and adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $315 to $325 million.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, Hill-Rom expects reported revenue growth of 9 to 10 percent. This reflects:
- organic constant currency revenue decline of 3 to 4 percent;
- adverse impact from foreign currency of approximately 1 percent; and
- incremental revenue from fiscal 2012 acquisitions of approximately $55 million.
Adjusted earnings per diluted share are expected to be $0.43 to $0.45 for the quarter.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures
Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. routinely provides earnings per share results and guidance on an adjusted basis because the Company's management believes that the presentation provides useful information to investors. In addition, we are providing adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA). These measures exclude strategic developments, special charges and the impact of significant litigation or other unusual events. Such items may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that sometimes have substantial impact on the Company's reported operations for a period. Often, prospective quantification of such items is not feasible. Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the business. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Reconciliations of GAAP measures to adjusted measures appear in the financial tables of this release.
