• Net sales of $83.7 million
  • GAAP loss of $0.02 per share; Non-GAAP adjusted EPS of $0.11
  • Operating cash generation of $4.7 million
  • Management provides Q2 outlook and reiterates FY2016 guidance

ALBANY, N.Y., Oct. 08, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AngioDynamics (NASDAQ:ANGO), a leading provider of innovative, minimally invasive medical devices for vascular access, surgery, peripheral vascular disease and oncology, today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 ended August 31, 2015.

“Today, we reported the first of two quarters in the 2016 fiscal year where we anticipated negative year-over-year revenue growth due to tough comparisons to the prior year brought on by fiscal 2015’s voluntary withdrawal of our Morpheus PICC line and foreign currency headwinds,” said Joseph M. DeVivo, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We expected this, managed the business effectively and as a result, our first quarter net sales were within our guidance, adjusted EPS met consensus expectations and cash flow was strong. We also expected to generate growth from our four key drivers, and did.

“From a products perspective, we saw sales momentum from our key growth drivers. In our Peripheral Vascular franchise, Thrombus Management was up 14%; in Vascular Access, BioFlo experienced strong sales increases in PICCs, Ports and Dialysis during the quarter at 30%; and Oncology/Surgery saw Microwave sales growth of 23%. Venous has also returned to growth at 4%. In addition, we continued to successfully execute our Operational Excellence program which resulted in improved operating performance during the quarter.

“As we enter the fiscal second quarter, we will continue to address these challenges as well as execute our plan to grow sales and realize increased operational consistency and efficiency. Our plan will enable us to capitalize on the market’s growing interest in our product portfolio, generate cash flow from operations and build shareholder value.”

Q1 FY16 Financial Results

Net sales for the fiscal first quarter were $83.7 million, down 4% from $87.3 million a year ago. On a constant currency basis and excluding the planned wind down of the Boston Scientific (BSC) supply agreement, adjusted sales for the fiscal first quarter were $84 million, down 2% year-over-year. Prior year results also included $2.6 million of Morpheus product line sales. The following comparisons exclude the BSC supply agreement.  

Peripheral Vascular net sales in the first quarter were $47.1 million compared to $47.3 million in the fiscal year 2015 first quarter. Vascular Access net sales were $24.6 million compared to $26.5 million a year ago. Oncology/Surgery net sales were $11.3 million compared to $12.4 million in the prior year’s first quarter. Overall, net sales in the U.S. were $68.4 million compared to $68.6 million in the 2015 fiscal year first quarter. International net sales were $14.7 million compared to $17.6 million a year ago, which included a 6% impact on revenues from foreign currency headwinds. 

The Company’s GAAP net loss was $0.8 million, or $0.02 loss per share, compared to a net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Excluding the items shown in the attached quarterly non-GAAP reconciliation table, adjusted net income was $4 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $5.7 million, or $0.16 per share, from the year ago first quarter. 

EBITDA was $8.2 million, or $0.22 per share, compared to $9.9 million, or $0.28 per share, a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA, excluding the items shown in the attached reconciliation table, was $11.9 million, or $0.33 per share, compared to $14.3 million, or $0.40 per share, in the year ago comparable period. 

In the first quarter, the Company generated $4.7 million in operating cash flow. At August 31, 2015, cash and investments were $22 million and debt was $136.4 million. During the first quarter, the Company reduced its debt position by $1.3 million.

Recent Events

  • The Clinical Research Office of the Endourological Society (CROES) has enrolled patients into a randomized, prospective clinical trial being led by Dr. Jean de la Rosette, professor and chairman of the Department of Urology at the Amsterdam Medical Center University Hospital and a registry to capture patient safety and effectiveness data on the use of Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) utilizing NanoKnife for patients with prostate cancer.
     
  • In early-August, AngioDynamics launched the BioFlo Midline catheter indicated for short-term intravenous therapies. The US Food and Drug Administration granted 510(k) clearance for the BioFlo Midline catheter earlier this year. The BioFlo Midline catheter often delivers the same medications, including a variety of antibiotics, as a peripheral intravenous catheter (PIV). However, Midlines can provide access for up to 30 days while PIVs typically need to be replaced every couple of days, usually due to performance failure. Midline catheters are ideal for patients who may require more than five days of intravenous therapy.
     
  • AngioDynamics also released to market the NAMIC inflation device during the first quarter which is designed to be used during angiographic procedures that require an inflation device. This inflation device allows for 30 atmospheres of pressure, which meets the needs of customers who prefer higher pressure balloons. In addition, the product offers easy visualization and an ergonomic design for easier use by clinicians.
     
  • Clinical data from Soft Tissue Ablation Registry (STAR) utilizing NanoKnife, appeared in Annals of Surgery. The abstract, authored by lead researcher Dr. Robert Martin, Director of Surgical Oncology, University of Louisville, KY, was titled “Treatment of 200 Locally Advanced (Stage III) Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Patients with Irreversible Electroporation: Safety and Efficacy.”
     
  • The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) saw the enrollment of the first patient into the Registry of AngioVac Procedures in Detail (RAPID) Database led by Dr. John Moriarty, Assistant Professor of Radiology, Director of Cardiology-Interventional Radiology Innovation at UCLA. The RAPID Database is designed to evaluate the patterns of use as well as safety and effectiveness data of the AngioVac system in the en bloc removal of fresh, soft thrombi or emboli.

Q2 FY16 Financial Guidance

The Company reiterates its FY2016 revenue guidance of $364 – $370 million and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) without amortization of $0.62 – $0.66.

“We are anticipating revenue to range from $87 million to $91 million in the fiscal second quarter, reflecting tough comparables due to the foreign currency and Morpheus headwinds. As previously stated, we are expecting to move beyond these challenges after the fiscal second quarter,” commented Mark Frost, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “Additionally, we are guiding adjusted EPS without amortization to be in the range of $0.13 to $0.15.”

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management uses non-GAAP measures to establish operational goals, and believes that non-GAAP measures may assist investors in analyzing the underlying trends in AngioDynamics’ business over time. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, financial reporting measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In this news release, AngioDynamics has reported net sales, excluding a supply agreement; EBITDA (income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization); adjusted EBITDA; adjusted gross profit; adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share. Additionally, this press release evaluates results on a constant currency basis. As a non-GAAP measure, constant currency excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Management uses these measures in its internal analysis and review of operational performance. Management believes that these measures provide investors with useful information in comparing AngioDynamics’ performance over different periods. By using these non-GAAP measures, management believes that investors get a better picture of the performance of AngioDynamics’ underlying business. Management encourages investors to review AngioDynamics’ financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP to understand AngioDynamics’ performance taking into account all relevant factors, including those that may only occur from time to time but have a material impact on AngioDynamics’ financial results. Please see the tables that follow for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
