SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– DJO Global, Inc. (“DJO” or the “Company”), a leading global provider of medical technologies designed to get and keep people moving, today announced financial results for its public reporting subsidiary, DJO Finance LLC (“DJOFL”), for the first quarter ended April 1, 2016.
First Quarter Highlights
- Net sales grew 12.7% to $278.9 million (13.7% constant currency, 7.4% on a sales per day basis)
- Adjusted EBITDA increased 5.6% to $48.9 million (8.0% constant currency)
“Our first quarter performance shows the underlying strength of our focus on Motion is Medicine paired with rapid new product innovations. We are especially pleased to see the terrific accelerating performance in our Orthopedic Implants and Consumer businesses,” said Mike Mogul, DJO’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
Sales Results
DJOFL achieved net sales for the first quarter of 2016 of $278.9 million, reflecting constant currency growth of 13.7%, compared with net sales of $247.5 million for the first quarter of 2015. There were approximately four more days in the Q1 2016 accounting calendar than in Q1 2015. The calendar will rebalance in Q4 with four fewer days than in Q4 2015. Net sales for the three months of 2016 were unfavorably impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates aggregating $2.4 million compared to the rates in effect in the three months of 2015.
Net sales for DJO’s Bracing and Vascular segment were $124.2 million in the first quarter of 2016, reflecting growth of 9.1% compared to the first quarter of 2015. Particularly exciting for Bracing in Q1 was the very positive impact that our MotionMD system for automating transactions in the clinic is making on our current clinics and in bringing in new customers.
Net sales for DJO’s Recovery Sciences segment were $36.6 million in the first quarter of 2016, reflecting an increase of 5.9%, compared to the first quarter of 2015. Our Compex electrostimulation devices are a highlight as they continue to become more and more a key part of the training equipment for high performance athletes.
Net sales for DJO’s International segment were $75.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates from rates in effect in the prior year period of $2.4 million, net sales for the first quarter of 2016 increased 7.4% from the first quarter of 2015. DJO France, Canada, and UK, were big contributors in the quarter.
Net sales for the Surgical Implant segment were $43.1 million for the first quarter of 2016, reflecting growth of 59.9% over net sales in the first quarter of 2015. All product segments, Hips, Knees, Shoulder and Cement had strong performances in the quarter. The very successful reception and uptake in the market of the new Empwr 3D Knee and the just launched Altivate Shoulder were highlights in the quarter.
Earnings Results
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2016 was $48.9 million, or 17.5% of net sales, reflecting 5.6% as reported and 8.0% constant currency growth when compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $46.3 million, or 18.7% of net sales, for the first quarter of 2015. Including cost savings programs currently underway of $7.7 million, Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended April 1, 2016 was $250.2 million, or 21.8% of LTM net sales.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income attributable to DJOFL plus interest expense, net, income tax provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-recurring items and other adjustment items as permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the Company’s new senior secured credit facilities (“New Senior Credit Facilities”) and the indentures governing its 8.125% second lien notes and its 10.75% third lien notes. Reconciliation between net loss and Adjusted EBITDA is included in the attached financial tables.
For the first quarter of 2016, DJOFL reported a net loss attributable to DJOFL of $38.3 million, compared to a net loss of $35.5 million for the first quarter of 2015. As detailed in the attached financial tables, the results for the current and prior year first quarter periods and the current and prior year twelve-month periods were impacted by significant non-cash items, non-recurring items and other adjustments.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had cash balances of $37.2 million and available liquidity of $118.5 million under its $150 million revolving credit facility.
2016 Outlook
We are confirming our guidance and are targeting total company full year constant currency revenue growth rates of 6%-8% for the full 2016 year and adjusted EBITDA growth rates of 8%-10%, including future cost reductions for the full 2016 year. Based on year-end foreign currency rates, we do not expect sales or Adjusted EBITDA for the full year of 2016 to be materially impacted.

Adjusted EBITDA
For the Three Months Ended April 1, 2016 and March 28, 2015
(unaudited)
Our Secured Credit Facilities, consisting of a $1,047.1 million term loan facility (including a $20.0 million delayed draw term loan facility) and a $150.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (collectively, our “Credit Facilities”), under which $31.0 million was outstanding as of April 1, 2016, and the indentures (the “Indentures”) governing our $1,015.0 million of 8.125% Second Lien Notes and $298.5 million of 10.75% Third Lien Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) represent significant components of our capital structure. Under our Credit Facilities, we are required to maintain a specified senior secured first lien leverage ratio, which is determined based on our Adjusted EBITDA. If we fail to comply with the senior secured first lien leverage ratio under our Credit Facilities, we would be in default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facilities, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we were unable to repay those amounts, the lenders under the Credit Facilities could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness. We have pledged substantially all of our assets as collateral under the Credit Facilities. Any acceleration under the Credit Facilities would also result in a default under the Indentures, which could lead to the note holders electing to declare the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the then outstanding notes immediately due and payable. In addition, under the Indentures, our and our subsidiaries’ ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments, refinancing subordinated indebtedness, paying dividends and entering into certain merger transactions is governed, in part, by our ability to satisfy tests based on Adjusted EBITDA. Our ability to meet the covenants specified in the Credit Facilities and the Indentures will depend on future events, some of which are beyond our control, and we cannot assure you that we will meet those covenants.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) attributable to DJOFL plus interest expense, net, income tax provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-recurring items and other adjustment items as permitted in calculating covenant compliance and other ratios under our Credit Facilities and the Indentures. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about the calculation of, and compliance with, certain financial covenants and other ratios in our Credit Facilities and the indentures. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these calculations.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or other performance measures presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), or as an alternative to cash flow from operations as a measure of our liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent net income (loss) or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. In particular, the definition of Adjusted EBITDA under our Credit Facilities and the Indentures allows us to add back certain non-cash, extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income (loss). However, these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict. While Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements, Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation.
The following table provides reconciliation between net loss and Adjusted EBITDA:
