Hologic Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2010 Operating Results
Strong Performance - Revenues and Earnings Exceed Guidance
BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hologic, Inc. (Hologic or the Company) (Nasdaq: HOLX), a leading developer, manufacturer and supplier of premium diagnostics products, medical imaging systems and surgical products dedicated to serving the healthcare needs of women, today announced its results for the first quarter ended December 26, 2009.
Highlights of the quarter include:
- Revenues of $412.4 million.
- First quarter 2010 net income was $26.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
- First quarter 2010 non-GAAP adjusted net income was $74.6 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $147.2 million. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is included as an attachment to this press release.
- Term loan to fund the Third Wave Technologies acquisition reduced from an initial balance of $540 million at July 24, 2008 to $119.5 million as of December 26, 2009 and further reduced to $97.0 million as of today.
- In January 2010, received $70 million from KV Pharmaceutical Company (KV) in connection with an amendment of the original asset purchase agreement relating to the sale of our Gestiva assets.
First quarter fiscal 2010 revenues totaled $412.4 million, a decrease of 3.9% when compared to revenues of $429.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decline in sales of Selenia full field digital mammography systems, as the Company did not realize the full impact of the declining economic environment and the resulting delays and reductions in hospital capital spending until the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Also contributing to this decline was the decline in Skeletal Health product revenues of $5.9 million as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009. These declines were partially offset by: (i) growth in Diagnostics and GYN Surgical product sales of $9.4 million, or 4.7%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and (ii) an $11.9 million, or 24.2%, increase in service and other revenues primarily related to the Company's increased installed base of Selenia full field digital mammography systems.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2010, Hologic reported net income of $26.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with net income of $38.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Included in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009 results were: (i) a charge of $57.1 million and $50.4 million, respectively, attributable to the amortization of intangible assets and (ii) a non-cash interest expense charge of $17.8 million and $16.5 million, respectively, related to the Company's adoption of a new accounting standard (Accounting Standard Codification 470-20, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)") for our Convertible Notes.
The Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased 7.7% to $74.6 million compared to $80.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The Company's fiscal 2010 and 2009 first quarter non-GAAP adjusted net income primarily excludes the amortization of intangible assets and the non-cash interest expense relating to the adoption of the new accounting guidance, as discussed above.
Non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share (EPS), and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company's definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures, and the reconciliations of these measures to the Company's comparable GAAP financial measures for the periods presented, are set forth in the supplemental information attached to this press release. When analyzing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures as a substitute for the comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
As of December 26, 2009, total backlog for all products was $325.6 million.
"We are pleased with our performance for the first quarter of fiscal 2010," said Rob Cascella, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our first quarter order rate for digital mammography signaled early signs of stabilization. I believe uncertainty still exists in the capital equipment market, but I am encouraged by both domestic and international order activity. In addition, we enjoyed solid quarter-over-quarter revenue growth in our Diagnostics and GYN Surgical segments. While we remain cautious in our outlook for the state of our markets, we are focused this year on driving growth in our core businesses through increased customer demand, market awareness, new product launches and international expansion."
First quarter revenue overview by segment:
- Breast Health revenues, which include the Company's mammography, Computer-Aided Detection (CAD), breast biopsy, MammoSite and AEG products, totaled $179.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $199.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2009. This decrease was primarily due to fewer Selenia systems sold during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009, as well as product mix and configuration differences, which combined, resulted in a reduction in Selenia product revenues. In addition, we had $7.5 million less in revenues in the current quarter as compared to first quarter of fiscal 2009 as a result of our phasing out the supply of digital detectors to an OEM and closing the AEG organic photoconductor drum coatings manufacturing operations in Shanghai. This decrease in revenues was partially offset by an increase in service revenues related to our increased installed base of Selenia full field digital mammography systems and, to a lesser extent, an increase in revenues from our breast biopsy products.
- Diagnostics revenues, which include the Company's ThinPrep products, Rapid Fetal Fibronectin test, Cervista tests and other Third Wave products, totaled $140.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to $134.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This increase was primarily due to an increase in revenues from our Cervista tests, increased revenues from ThinPrep pap tests sold internationally and continued growth in imager adoption. These increases were partially offset by the elimination of $0.8 million of revenues we generated in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 from molecular tests we sold as analyte specific reagents (ASRs) that we no longer market.
- GYN Surgical revenues, which include the Company's NovaSure endometrial ablation system and Adiana permanent contraception system, totaled $71.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $68.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of NovaSure systems sold internationally, as well as limited sales of Adiana devices.
- Skeletal Health revenues, which include the Company's osteoporosis assessment and mini C-arm product lines, totaled $21.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $27.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This decrease was primarily the result of decreased system sales of the osteoporosis assessment product line and, to a lesser extent, the mini C-arm product line, both of which continue to be impacted by the economic environment and ongoing effects of the reimbursement reductions for osteoporosis assessment exams in the U.S.
Amendment of Agreement with KV Pharmaceutical Company:
On January 8, 2010, the Company entered into an amendment (the Amendment) to the existing asset purchase agreement with KV Pharmaceutical Company relating to the Company's pending sale of substantially all of its assets relating to its Gestiva pharmaceutical. The Gestiva product is a progesterone-based drug treatment for the prevention of pre-term birth in women who are pregnant with a single baby and have spontaneously delivered a single baby pre-term in the past. Upon the execution of this Amendment, KV paid Hologic $70 million in cash. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amendment, the Gestiva assets will be transferred to KV upon Hologic obtaining FDA approval of the Gestiva product. The Amendment obligates KV to pay an additional $25 million upon FDA approval of the product and an additional $95 million over a nine-month period beginning one year after FDA approval.
Financial Guidance:
The Company's guidance for fiscal 2010 reflects its current core products and does not reflect any future revenue or earnings from any product currently before the FDA awaiting approval or clearance.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2010 (Quarter ending March 27, 2010):
- The Company expects second quarter fiscal 2010 revenues to be approximately $410 million to $415 million, comparable with the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and up from $402 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
The three phased-out product lines discussed above contributed $6.5 million in revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
- The Company expects EPS to be approximately $0.10 to $0.11 and non-GAAP adjusted EPS to be approximately $0.29.
Fiscal 2010 (Year ending September 25, 2010):
- The Company has increased it guidance range and now expects fiscal 2010 revenues to be approximately $1.640 billion to $1.665 billion, driven primarily by the higher than expected first quarter results, especially in the Breast Health segment, and an expected stable environment for the remainder of the year.
The three phased-out product lines contributed $21.0 million in revenues in fiscal 2009.
- The Company expects EPS to be approximately $0.42 to $0.46 and non-GAAP adjusted EPS to be approximately $1.16 to $1.20.
A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP fiscal 2010 projections is included as an attachment to this press release.
Hologic may incur expenses or charges or realize income or gains in fiscal 2010 that could cause actual results to vary from the guidance above. In addition, the Company is continuing to monitor the effects of the U.S. and general worldwide economic and regulatory conditions and related uncertainties, including proposed healthcare reform and associated tax proposals, which, along with other uncertainties facing our business, could adversely affect anticipated results.

(1) To exclude the anticipated on-going, non-cash amortization of the intangible assets.
(2) To exclude the anticipated additional non-cash interest expense relating to the recently-issued accounting guidance for convertible debt.
(3) To reflect an estimated annual effective tax rate of 36% for the second quarter and full year of fiscal 2010 on a non-GAAP basis.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
The Company has presented the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: adjusted net income; adjusted EPS; and adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines its non-GAAP adjusted net income to exclude the non-cash amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, other acquisition-related charges, such as charges associated with the write-off of acquired in-process research and development and the write-up of acquired inventory to fair value, non-cash charges resulting from changes in GAAP, and other one-time, nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains. As set forth in the applicable reconciliation tables above, non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted EPS for the periods presented exclude the following items from GAAP net income and EPS: (i) non-cash expenses associated with the Company's recent acquisitions, including amortization of intangible assets; (ii) non-cash interest expense resulting from the Company's adoption of a new standard under GAAP that changed the accounting for convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features; (iii) the increase in cost of revenues resulting from the write-up of acquired inventory sold during the applicable period; and (iv) restructuring charges. The Company's non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA excludes from its GAAP net income: (i) the items excluded in its calculation of adjusted net income; (ii) interest expense, net; (iii) provision for income taxes; and (iv) depreciation and amortization expense not otherwise excluded in calculating its non-GAAP adjusted net income.
The Company believes the use of non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP EPS are useful to investors in comparing the results of operations in fiscal 2010 to the comparable period in fiscal 2009 by eliminating certain of the more significant effects of the acquisitions that took place and non-cash charges resulting from changes in GAAP. These measures also reflect how the Company manages the business internally and sets operational goals, and forms the basis of certain of its management incentive programs. In addition to the adjustments set forth in the calculation of the Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income, its non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. As with the items eliminated in its calculation of non-GAAP adjusted net income, these items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a company's business. The items excluded from the Company's calculation of its non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA presented herein are also excluded in the calculation of its non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA under its senior secured borrowing arrangements and used by the Company and its lenders in determining its compliance with its financial covenants under those arrangements. When analyzing the Company's operating performance, investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for net income or EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP.
