DEERFIELD, Ill., Aug. 01, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RTI Surgical Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RTIX), a global surgical implant company, reported operating results for the second quarter of 2019.
Second Quarter 2019 Highlights:
- Revenue of $82.3 million, up approximately 16% compared to the second quarter of 2018
- Net income of $0.7 million
- Adjusted EBITDA of $9.9 million, or 12% of revenue
“RTI Surgical experienced accelerated revenue growth in the second quarter of 2019 resulting from strong performance across our global Spine and OEM franchises, and further improved by the addition of coflex,” said Camille Farhat, President and CEO, RTI Surgical. “We’re very pleased with the double-digit topline growth of our legacy spine hardware portfolio, particularly as we work to establish a new sales channel to drive the growth of our Novel Therapies portfolio, which includes coflex.”
Farhat continued, “The OEM franchise had a record quarter as we continue to deliver meaningful value to our customers. We offer a unique and innovative OEM solution, which includes product design and development, regulatory support, and product fulfillment across tissue, biologics and hardware. Increasingly, medical device companies are seeking our domain expertise in the creation of distribution-ready products to address their portfolio-specific needs, as well as the demands of surgeons and patients. Overall, we are extremely pleased to see continued success from our efforts to reduce complexity, drive operational excellence and accelerate the growth of RTI.”
Second Quarter 2019
RTI’s worldwide revenues for the second quarter of 2019 were $82.3 million, an increase of $11.6 million, or 16% compared with $70.7 million during the same period in the prior year. The second quarter 2019 revenue included $10.1 million global contribution from the acquisition of Paradigm Spine, closed on March 9, 2019. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2019 was $44.7 million, or 54.4% of revenues, a 49% increase compared to $30.0 million, or 42.5% of revenues, in the second quarter of 2018. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2019 included $2.9 million for the purchase accounting step-up of coflex inventory. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2018 was impacted by an inventory charge of $6.8 million from the write-off of inventory related to decreased distributions of our map3® implant and the purchase accounting step-up on Zyga inventory. Gross profit adjusted for the impact of non-recurring charges was 57.9% of revenue for the second quarter of 2019 compared to 52.1% of revenue for the prior year quarter.
During the second quarter of 2019, RTI incurred $2.0 million in non-recurring pre-tax acquisition and integration costs related primarily to its acquisition and integration of Paradigm Spine LLC and a $1.6 million gain on acquisition contingency due to an adjustment to our estimate of obligation for future milestone payments.
Net income applicable to common shares was $0.7 million, or $0.01 per fully diluted common share in the second quarter of 2019, compared to net loss applicable to common shares of $6.4 million, or $0.10 per fully diluted common share in the second quarter of 2018. As outlined in the reconciliation tables that follow, excluding the impact of non-recurring charges, adjusted net income applicable to common shares was $0.7 million, or $0.01 per fully diluted common share in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $2.0 million, or $0.03 per fully diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2018.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), for the second quarter of 2019 was $9.9 million, or 12% of revenues, compared with $9.1 million, or 13% of revenues for the second quarter of 2018. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by increase in gross profit associated with efforts to drive operational excellence, partially offset by incremental operating costs from the acquisition of Paradigm Spine completed in early March of 2019.
Fiscal 2019 Outlook
Based on our recent financial results and current business outlook, the Company confirms the following financial guidance for 2019:
- The Company expects full year revenues in the range of $325 million to $335 million, representing approximately 15% to 19% growth over the prior year.
- The Company expects full year Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $36 million to $40 million, representing approximately 7% to 19% growth over the prior year.
The Company noted that guidance is based on the following assumptions:
- Relatively stable economic and market conditions and regulatory environment;
- Ongoing positive impacts from efforts to reduce complexity and implement operational excellence;
- The continuing successful integration of Paradigm Spine, which closed in early March 2019 and a positive EBITDA contribution from Paradigm Spine;
- Sustained favorable reimbursement from private payers; and,
- The successful ongoing transition from map3® to ViBone®.
