      WESTBROOK, Maine, Jan. 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- IDEXX Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDXX) today reported revenues for the fourth quarter of 2015 of $400 million, an increase of 14%1 compared to the prior year period. Normalized organic revenue growth2 for the quarter was over 11%, supported by strong growth in the Companion Animal Group ("CAG") segment. Revenue for the full year of $1,602 million increased 8% on a reported basis, supported by 11% normalized organic revenue growth.

      Earnings per diluted share ("EPS") for the quarter was $0.48. Adjusted EPS growth3 was 2% compared to the prior year period, while absorbing a negative $0.03 per share impact related to net changes in foreign exchange, resulting in constant currency4 Adjusted EPS growth of 9%. The quarter benefited from recording the full year impact of the decision to make the federal research and development ("R&D") tax credit permanent, which had a $0.03 favorable impact on EPS, consistent with the prior year quarter. 

      "We were very pleased with the Company's performance in the fourth quarter, supported by record instrument placements in both North American and international markets. Total premium instrument placements were up 35% over a very strong prior year period, with Catalyst placements up 61% compared to last year. We achieved 694 Catalyst placements in North America and 868 in international markets, leveraging our expanded commercial presence globally.  In North America, 395 units or 57% of our Catalyst placements were to new and competitive accounts, up 37% over Q4 2014, a testament to the increasing effectiveness of our all-direct sales force. For the full year, we placed 9,771 chemistry and hematology instruments worldwide, substantially higher than any year in our history. SediVue Dx™, our novel urine sediment analyzer for use in-clinic, and the recent regulatory approval of Catalyst One® in Japan, will add to our already substantial momentum in placing instruments as we move through 2016," said Jonathan Ayers, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

      "SediVue is a breakthrough innovation that helps improve accuracy and streamlines workflows of a historically challenging manual process involving microscopic interpretation. SediVue presents veterinarians with a huge opportunity to enhance the quality of patient care while simultaneously helping to drive practice revenue growth and staff efficiency. Working in concert with chemistry and hematology, urinalysis forms the essential third pillar of the minimum diagnostic database in pet care," continued Ayers.

      "We also continue to be pleased by the enthusiastic response of our customers to IDEXX SDMA™, our unique test for kidney disease, a common condition in pets. IDEXX SDMA has now been automatically added to all chemistry panels for customers in all of our major reference laboratory markets globally. This novel kidney parameter is being well received globally by our customers, helped in part by the inclusion of SDMA in the International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) guidelines. IRIS is led by a board of 15 world-renowned independent veterinarians from 10 different countries, so the inclusion of SDMA as an important marker for renal function is a worldwide endorsement."

      "Our solid finish to 2015 is positioning us to deliver continued strong constant currency4 revenue and profit gains in 2016."

      Fourth Quarter Financial Performance Highlights

      Fourth quarter revenue increased 14% to $400 million. Normalized organic revenue growth was 11% and benefited in part from incremental margin capture associated with the move to an all-direct sales model for US CAG Diagnostics.

      • Companion Animal Group normalized organic revenue growth was 13% for the fourth quarter, driven by 12.5% normalized growth in recurring CAG Diagnostics revenues and a 28% increase in organic revenue growth2 in CAG Diagnostics instruments. CAG Diagnostics recurring revenue gains were driven by 16% normalized organic growth in IDEXX VetLab® consumable revenues, reflecting solid volume gains and benefits from margin capture, and 11% organic growth in reference laboratory diagnostic and consulting services revenues, supported by continued strong double-digit reference lab revenue gains in the US. Rapid assay revenues achieved 9% normalized organic growth, supported by higher 4Dx product volumes and benefits from margin capture.
      • Livestock, Poultry and Dairy ("LPD") organic revenue increased 2% for the fourth quarter reflecting solid growth in new products worldwide and strong poultry and swine sales in emerging markets, offset partially by lower livestock services revenue in Australia and lower Europe bovine revenue.
      • Water's organic revenue growth was 10% in the fourth quarter, due to worldwide increases in core coliform and E.coli products, as well as benefits from the launch of our new Quanti-Tray® Sealer PLUS product.

      Gross Profit increased 20% compared to the prior year period.  Gross Margin adjusted for the impact of the prior year US channel inventory reductions increased from 53.8% to 54.5%, reflecting lower manufacturing costs and benefits from moderate price gains, which offset mix impacts from strong instrument sales.

      Operating Margin was 16.7% in the fourth quarter, down slightly from prior year period adjusted operating margin of 17.3%.  This change reflects increases in operating expenses compared to the prior year period primarily due to recurring costs associated with the all-direct US CAG Diagnostics sales strategy and other increases in global commercial resources, partly offset by the favorable impact of foreign exchange.

      Outlook for 2016

      The Company is maintaining its organic revenue growth outlook while updating reported revenue guidance for the strengthening of the US dollar relative to foreign currencies. Despite unfavorable currency impacts, the Company is raising its EPS guidance to reflect the permanent extension of the Federal R&D tax credit and solid operating trends. Excluding foreign currency change impacts, our guidance aligns with constant currency Adjusted EPS growth of 12% to 15%.

       At current foreign exchange rates, we estimate that the effect of the stronger US dollar will adversely impact 2016 reported revenue growth by approximately 2.5%, EPS by an estimated $0.26 per share, and Adjusted EPS growth by 12% compared to rates in effect in 2015. Compared to assumptions used in our prior guidance for 2016 provided during our third quarter earnings call on October 28, 2015, the continued strengthening of the US dollar has the effect of lowering projected revenue by approximately $25 million and EPS by $0.04 per share, net of hedge benefits. These effects are mitigated by benefits from the decision to make the Federal R&D tax credit permanent, which is estimated to have a $0.03 positive impact on EPS, and expected stronger operating performance, which is expected to add $0.02 to EPS.

      The Company provides the following updated guidance for 2016:

      Free Cash Flow:          95% - 100% of net income

      Capital Expenditures:             $90 million

      The guidance above assumes that the value of the US dollar relative to other currencies will reflect the euro at $1.07, the British pound at $1.41, the Canadian dollar at $0.68, the Australian dollar at $0.68 and the Japanese yen at ¥118 to the US dollar for the full year of 2016.

      We expect that operating margins for the full year will be 18.0% to 18.5%, or approximately 100 basis points below 2015 adjusted operating margin levels, driven by foreign exchange impacts including comparisons to benefits from 2015 hedge gains. Adjusted for currency impacts and the 2015 software impairment charge, we are targeting operating margin improvement of approximately 50 basis points from 2015 levels.

      We expect an effective tax rate of 30% to 30.5%, including projected benefits from the Federal R&D tax credit.  We are projecting a reduction in weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 3.5% to 4.0%, and interest expense, net of interest income, of approximately $32 million reflecting current and projected borrowings.

      The following provides information regarding certain measures used in this earnings release that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), otherwise referred to herein as non-GAAP financial measures. To supplement the Company's consolidated results presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company has disclosed non-GAAP financial measures that exclude or adjust certain items. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for its and investors' evaluation of the Company's business performance and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of the performance of the Company's business and to the performance of our peers. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company's business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies. See the notes to this earnings release for information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations included in the notes and elsewhere in this earnings release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

      1All references to growth and organic growth refer to growth compared to the equivalent prior year period.


      2Normalized organic revenue growth and organic revenue growth are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that reporting organic revenue growth provides useful information to investors by facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to the performance of our peers. Organic revenue growth for the fourth quarter of 2015 excludes the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which had a 5.7% unfavorable impact on revenue growth, and revenue from business acquisitions, which contributed 0.7% to revenue growth. See the supplementary analysis of results below for a reconciliation of reported revenue growth to organic revenue growth for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Management also believes that reporting normalized organic revenue growth provides useful information to investors by facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue growth performance with prior and future periods.  Normalized organic revenue growth excludes the impact of changes in our significant distributors' inventory levels on organic revenue growth.  When selling our products through distributors, changes in distributors' inventory levels can impact our reported sales, and these changes may be affected by many factors, which may not be directly related to underlying end-user demand for our products.  Effective January 1, 2015, we fully transitioned to an all-direct sales strategy in the US, however changes in prior year US distributors' inventory levels can still impact current year reported growth results.  In certain countries internationally, we continue to sell our products through third party distributors.  Although we are unable to obtain data for sales to end users from certain less significant non-US third party distributors, we do not believe the impact of changes in these distributors' inventories had or would have a material impact on our growth rates in the relevant periods.  Reconciliation of organic revenue growth to normalized organic revenue growth for the fourth quarter of 2015 includes the following positive impacts to organic revenue growth from changes in our significant distributors' inventory levels; Total Company 7.5%, US 13.0%, International 0.3%, CAG 9.4%, CAG Diagnostics Recurring 11.5%, VetLab consumables 18.4%, VetLab service and accessories 3.4%, and Rapid Assay 45.4%. Reconciliation of organic revenue growth to normalized organic revenue growth for the full year of 2015 includes the following positive impacts to organic revenue growth from changes in our significant distributors' inventory levels; Total Company 2.0%, US 3.4%, International 0.1%, CAG 2.5%, CAG Diagnostics Recurring 3.0%, VetLab consumables 5.1%, VetLab service and accessories 1.0%, and Rapid Assay 7.6%.


      3Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EPS growth are non-GAAP financial measures.  Management believes that reporting Adjusted EPS provides useful information to investors by facilitating easier comparisons of our EPS performance with prior and future periods.  See table above for a reconciliation of fourth quarter 2014 and 2015 EPS adjustments, and the supplementary analysis of results section for a reconciliation of full year 2015 EPS adjustments.


      4Constant currency references are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Management believes that providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our revenue, operating margin, and EPS performance because it is consistent with how management evaluates our performance and facilitates comparisons with prior and future periods. We estimated the net impacts of currency on our revenue, operating profit and Adjusted EPS results by restating results to the average exchange rates or exchange rate assumptions for the comparative period, which includes adjusting for the estimated impacts of foreign currency hedging transactions and certain impacts on our effective tax rates.  These estimated currency changes reduced 2015 Adjusted EPS growth by 8%, projected 2016 revenue growth by 2.5%, and projected 2016 Adjusted EPS growth by 12%.  Constant currency revenue growth represents the percentage change in revenue during the applicable period, as compared to the prior year period, excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.


      5Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and means, with respect to a measurement period, the cash generated from operations during that period, excluding tax benefits attributable to share-based compensation arrangements, reduced by the Company's investments in fixed assets.  Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure because it indicates the cash the operations of the business are generating after appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in fixed assets that are required to operate the business. See the supplementary analysis of results below for our calculation of free cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.  With respect to this particular forward-looking projected non-GAAP financial measure, the Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation as the inputs to the measurement are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events.

      Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements 

      This earnings release contains statements about the Company's business prospects and estimates of the Company's financial results for future periods that are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are included above under "Financial Outlook for 2016" and elsewhere and can be identified by the use of words such as "expects," "may," "anticipates," "intends," "would," "will," "plans," "believes," "estimates," "should," and similar words and expressions. Our forward-looking statements include statements relating to our revenue growth and EPS outlooks; free cash flow forecast; projected impact of foreign currency exchange rates; projected operating margins, capital expenditures, effective tax rate, weighted average shares outstanding and interest expense; and projected product launches. These statements are based on management's expectation of future events as of the date of this earnings release, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments. Actual results could differ materially from management's expectations. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include the following: the Company's ability to successfully execute its strategy, including supporting its all-direct sales strategy in the US; the Company's ability to develop, manufacture, introduce and market new products and enhancements to existing products; the Company's ability to achieve cost improvements in its worldwide network of laboratories and in the manufacture and service of in-clinic instruments; the Company's ability to identify acquisition opportunities, complete acquisitions and integrate acquired businesses; disruptions, shortages or pricing changes that affect the Company's purchases of products and materials from third parties, including from sole source suppliers; the effectiveness of the Company's sales and marketing activities; the Company's ability to manufacture complex biologic products; the impact of a change to our relationship with the Company's distributors; the impact of distributor purchasing decisions on sales of the Company's products that are sold through distribution; the Company's ability to manage the risks associated with the use of distributors to sell the Company's products; the impact of increased competition from existing and new technologies and technological advances by our competitors; the promotion and sale of our competitors' products by our former US distribution partners; the effect of government regulation on the Company's business, including government decisions about whether and when to approve the Company's products and decisions regarding labeling, manufacturing and marketing products; the impact of veterinary hospital consolidation, and the prevalence of buying consortiums on the markets for the Company's products; the Company's ability to obtain patent and other intellectual property protection for its products, successfully enforce its intellectual property rights and defend itself against third party claims against the Company; changes in testing patterns or practices in veterinary medicine that affect the rate of use of the Company's products and services by veterinarians; a failure or perceived failure to comply with regulations and our policies regarding the privacy and protection of user data; the effect of any strengthening of the rate of exchange for the US dollar; the effect of any adverse changes in the financial markets on the value of the Company's investment portfolio; the impact of a weak economy on demand for the Company's products and services or increased customer credit risk; the effects of operations outside the US, including  from currency fluctuations, different regulatory, political and economic conditions, and different market conditions and local business and cultural factors; the impact of the Company's limited experience and small scale in the human point-of-care market; the effects of interruptions to the Company's operations due to natural or man-made disasters, system failures or disruptions or security breaches; the effect on the Company's stock price if quarterly or annual operating results do not meet expectations of market analysts or investors in future periods; potential exposures related to our worldwide provision for income taxes and the potential loss of tax incentives; and the Company's ability to obtain financing on favorable terms. A further description of these and other factors can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, in the sections captioned "Risk Factors," as well as the Company's other periodic reports filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      1 Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated from cash generated from operations, excluding tax benefits attributable to
         share-based compensation arrangements, reduced by the Company's investments in fixed assets. Management believes free cash flow is a 
         useful measure because it indicates the cash the operations of the business are generating after appropriate reinvestment for recurring 
         investments in fixed assets that are required to operate the business. Management also believes this is a common financial measure useful to 
         further evaluate the results of operations.
