WESTFORD, Mass., Feb. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cynosure, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYNO), which designs, manufactures and markets medical devices for aesthetic procedures and precision surgical applications worldwide, today reported financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015.
"We capped a record year with fourth-quarter revenue of $102.4 million, improving margins and solid profitability in the quarter," said Chief Executive Officer Michael Davin. "The successful launch of SculpSure, our new laser platform for non-invasive fat reduction, together with the strong performance of other products, including MonaLisa Touch®, Icon™ and PicoSure®, helped drive a 31 percent increase in product revenue from North America and enhance our competitive position in the market."
"2015 was an outstanding year for Cynosure. We launched a second wavelength to our market-leading PicoSure platform and introduced SculpSure in the U.S. through our direct sales force as well as through our direct offices in Europe and Australia. In addition, we strengthened our business through strategic technology investments, scientific presentations and additional international regulatory clearances that support our long-term growth strategy," Davin said. "It also was a strong cash-generating year for the Company, with cash flow from operations of $37.8 million."
Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Revenue was $102.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, an increase of 19 percent from the prior-year period. Product revenue in North America grew 31 percent year-over-year to $55.8 million. International product revenue was $29.7 million, up 1 percent year-over-year, and up 4 percent on a constant currency basis, from the fourth quarter of 2014. Parts, service and disposables revenue increased 28 percent year-over-year to $16.3 million.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2015 was 57.6 percent, compared with 56.6 percent for the same period in 2014. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangibles, gross margin increased to 59.1 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with 58.6 percent in the prior-year period.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 16 percent to $47.2 million from $40.6 million in the same period in 2014, partially reflecting the SculpSure launch. Sales and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $32.6 million, or 31.8 percent of total revenue, compared with sales and marketing expenses of $25.9 million, or 30.0 percent of total revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2014, as Cynosure added sales, clinical support and marketing personnel, and made additional marketing investments associated with the SculpSure launch.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $11.8 million, compared with $8.3 million in the prior-year period. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding acquisition costs and amortization of intangibles, income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $14.1 million, compared with $11.6 million for the prior-year period.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $7.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with net income of $23.0 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, for the prior-year period. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 included an income tax benefit of $19.6 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, resulting from the release of an income tax valuation allowance relating to net deferred tax assets.
On a non-GAAP basis, excluding acquisition costs, non-cash unrealized foreign exchange measurement losses, and amortization of intangibles, net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $9.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared with $7.9 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the prior-year period.
Cash and investments at December 31, 2015 were $182.8 million, compared with $133.4 million at year-end 2014.
Business Outlook
"Based on the momentum of our business and our strong balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to drive growth in 2016 and beyond," Davin concluded. "SculpSure is ahead of plan in just its first few months on the market and the early feedback has been encouraging. Given early demand from physicians and patients, we're optimistic about maintaining the initial trajectory as we move through the year. Our commitments to disciplined execution, technological innovation and prudent financial management are core to the foundation of Cynosure and will continue to anchor our strategy moving forward."

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Cynosure uses non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted net income per share. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release exclude costs associated with the acquisitions and amortization of intangible assets acquired, as well as unrealized foreign exchange losses for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. This exclusion may be different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies. |
||||||||
Cynosure's management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding the acquisition-related costs, amortization and foreign exchange costs that may not be indicative of our core business operating results. Cynosure believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Cynosure's performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to Cynosure's historical performance and our competitors' operating results. Cynosure believes that the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in our financial and operational decision making. |
