LEWISVILLE, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Orthofix International N.V. (NASDAQ:OFIX) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016. For the second quarter of 2016, net sales were $104.1 million, loss per share from continuing operations was ($0.35) and adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was $0.41.
“Our second quarter continued to demonstrate solid and consistent performance both in our financial results as well as our operational improvements. A key driver of this performance was, once again, outstanding execution by our BioStim strategic business unit. Additionally, we continue to make steady progress in achieving our margin expansion and ROIC objectives,” said Brad Mason, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Second Quarter Financial Results
The following table provides net sales, net sales change and constant currency net sales change by strategic business unit (“SBU”) for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||
| (Unaudited, U.S. Dollars, in thousands) | 2016 | 2015 | Reported Change |
Constant Currency Change |
||||||||||||
| BioStim | $ | 44,758 | $ | 40,703 | 10.0 | % | 10.0 | % | ||||||||
| Biologics | 14,256 | 15,274 | (6.7 | %) | (6.7 | %) | ||||||||||
| Extremity Fixation | 26,817 | 25,594 | 4.8 | % | 4.8 | % | ||||||||||
| Spine Fixation | 18,244 | 19,383 | (5.9 | %) | (5.8 | %) | ||||||||||
| Total net sales | $ | 104,075 | $ | 100,954 | 3.1 | % | 3.1 | % | ||||||||
The growth in the BioStim SBU was primarily driven by increased order counts from an expanding customer base and our order to cash process improvements that increased the overall percentage that we collect on orders and therefore increased net sales. The decrease in theBiologics SBU was primarily due to the exclusion from a large national hospital account and additional competing product offerings. The increase in net sales in the Extremity Fixation SBU was largely due to growth in the U.S. as a result of the increased adoption of our TrueLok Hexapod System® (“TL-HEX™”) and the addition of new distributors. The decrease in net sales in the Spine Fixation SBU was primarily due to the loss of several key surgeon customers in the U.S., the timing of international cash collections and the exclusion from a large national hospital account. Gross profit increased $2.5 million to $81.6 million. Gross margin slightly increased to 78.4% as compared to 78.3% in the prior year period.
Net margin (gross profit less sales and marketing expenses) was $35.5 million, a decrease of 1.6% compared to $36.1 million in the prior year period. This decline was driven by an increase in sales and marketing expenses, offset by the improvement in gross profit. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily driven by lower than usual sales and marketing expenses in the prior year period due to the restructuring of the U.S. Extremity Fixation sales management organization.
Operating expenses increased by $10.1 million to $84.2 million, compared to $74.1 million in the prior year period. This increase was driven by charges of $12.9 million relating to our ongoing settlement discussions with the Division of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) related to the SEC’s investigation of (1) our prior accounting review and restatements of financial statements and (2) allegations of improper payments with respect to our Brazil-based subsidiary, as further discussed in our Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016, and the increase in sales and marketing expenses, offset by decreases in general and administrative expenses and restatement and related costs. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was driven by decreased professional and consulting fees, and a legal judgment incurred in the prior year.
Operating loss was $2.6 million compared to operating income of $4.9 million in the prior year period.
Net loss from continuing operations was $6.3 million, or ($0.35) per share, compared to net income of $4.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Adjusted net income from continuing operations was $7.5 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $6.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share in the prior year period.
EBITDA was $2.6 million, compared to $11.0 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes share-based compensation, foreign exchange impact, strategic investments, restatements and related costs, infrastructure investments, legal judgments, gain on sale of assets, and charges related to U.S. Government resolutions, increased to $19.2 million or 18.5% of net sales for the second quarter, compared to $17.2 million or 17.1% of net sales in the prior year period.
As of June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $40.5 million compared to $63.7 million as of December 31, 2015. This change was primarily driven by share repurchases, offset by an increase in operating cash flows. As of June 30, 2016 the Company had no outstanding indebtedness and borrowing capacity of $125 million.
Share Repurchase Plan
As previously announced, the Company initiated a share repurchase plan in the fourth quarter of 2015 of up to $75 million of the Company’s common stock through the end of September 2017. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had repurchased a cumulative total of approximately 1,374,000 shares of common stock for $55.5 million under this plan, of which approximately 404,000 shares of common stock were repurchased for $17.4 million in the second quarter of 2016.

Net Margin
Net margin is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by subtracting sales and marketing from gross profit. Net margin is the primary metric used by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker in managing the Company.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flow from operating activities. Free cash flow is an important indicator of how much cash is generated or used by our normal business operations, including capital expenditures. Management uses free cash flow as a measure of progress on its capital efficiency and cash flow initiatives.
Constant Currency
Constant currency measures actual performance using foreign currency rates from the comparable, prior-year period, to present actuals at comparable rates. Constant currency can be presented for numerous GAAP measures, but is most commonly used by management to compare revenues without the impact of changes in foreign currencies. When disclosed, constant currency measures are presented with the applicable GAAP measure for comparability.
Effective Tax Rate Used in Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share from Continuing Operations
The Company believes using a 38% effective tax rate is meaningful given it reflects management’s expectation of its long-term normalized tax rate, which is based on current tax law and current expected income. The Company’s actual income tax expense will ultimately be based on its GAAP performance and may differ from the 38% rate used in the financial measures due to a variety of factors, including the jurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed; the resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities; and the ability to realize deferred tax assets.
Management use of, and economic substance behind, Non-GAAP Performance Measures
Management uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance period-over-period, to analyze the underlying trends in the Company’s business, to assess its performance relative to its competitors and to establish operational goals and forecasts that are used in allocating resources. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as the basis for assessing the ability of the underlying operations to generate cash. In addition, management uses these non-GAAP measures to further its understanding of the performance of the Company’s business units.
Material Limitations Associated with the Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The non-GAAP measures used in this press release may have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a replacement for GAAP performance measures. Some of the limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP performance measures are that they exclude items that reflect an economic cost to the Company and can have a material effect on cash flows. Similarly, certain non-cash expenses such as equity compensation expense does not directly impact cash flows, but is part of total compensation costs accounted for under GAAP.
Compensation for Limitations Associated with Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Orthofix compensates for the limitations of its non-GAAP performance measures by relying upon its GAAP results to gain a complete picture of the Company’s performance. The GAAP results provide the ability to understand the Company’s performance based on a defined set of criteria. The non-GAAP measures reflect the underlying operating results of the Company’s businesses, which management believes is an important measure of the Company’s overall performance. The Company provides a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP performance measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures, and encourages investors to review this reconciliation.
Usefulness of Non-GAAP Measures to Investors
Orthofix believes that providing non-GAAP measures that exclude certain items provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by the Company’s senior management in its financial and operational decision-making. Management believes it is important to provide investors with the same non-GAAP metrics it uses to supplement information regarding the performance and underlying trends of Orthofix’s business operations in order to facilitate comparisons to its historical operating results and internally evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s operating strategies. Disclosure of these non-GAAP performance measures also facilitates comparisons of Orthofix’s underlying operating performance with other companies in its industry that also supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP performance measures.
