AngioDynamics Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2007 Results

AngioDynamics (NASDAQ:ANGO), a leading provider of innovative medical devices used by interventional radiologists and surgeons for the minimally invasive treatment of peripheral vascular disease and cancer, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 2, 2007. Financial results include RITA Medical, from January 29, 2007, the date of acquisition.

For the fourth fiscal quarter, the Company reported $40.9 million in net sales, a 73% increase over the $23.6 million reported for the same period one year ago. Fourth quarter net income increased to $2.9 million from $2.0 million, while GAAP EPS decreased to $0.12 per share from $0.15 per share due to the additional shares issued in conjunction with the RITA Medical acquisition. Adjusted (non-GAAP) EPS, which excludes stock based compensation, amortization of intangibles, and other items detailed in the tables included in this release, increased to $0.29 per share from $0.16 per share a year ago.

AngioDynamics products constituted $26.3 million of fourth quarter net sales and RITA Medical products constituted $14.6 million. AngioDynamics product sales grew 11% in the fourth quarter compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. There were five fewer business days in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 than in the fourth quarter of 2006. On an adjusted, average daily sales basis, AngioDynamics product sales grew 20% during the fourth quarter compared with the same quarter of last year. On a pro forma basis, RITA Medical sales grew 14% during the fourth quarter versus the comparable period of a year ago.

We achieved solid financial performance during the fourth quarter, especially in light of the disappointing jury verdict regarding our VenaCure® product line, commented Eamonn P. Hobbs, president and chief executive officer of AngioDynamics. Our positive financial results illustrate the significant progress we have made in integrating RITA Medical as well as the growth generated from product lines outside of VenaCure. We were pleased by our sales teams ability to regain market momentum for our RITA Medical ports product line as well as the strong sales growth in the Sotradecol®, PTA and TOTAL ABSCESSION® drainage product lines. In addition, our oncology business, led by our embolization bead and Habib product lines, also posted impressive sales.

Following the jury verdict in the 777 patent litigation dispute with Diomed, we successfully launched our NeverTouch VenaCure product, continued Mr. Hobbs. This required us to reach into our R&D pipeline and rapidly commercialize and introduce our product so that we could continue to serve the venous disease market. This new product has had a positive reception in the marketplace and we are excited about its opportunities over the long term. Despite our rapid recovery and execution of our strategy, there was an interruption to fourth quarter venous product sales. Nonetheless, we were able to achieve the sales guidance projected prior to the jury verdict, which we believe illustrates the benefits of a broad product line and a very capable sales force, said Mr. Hobbs.

Fourth Quarter Highlights

  • Grew interventional product sales by 36% to $32.1 million, with 20% growth in the AngioDynamics product sales on an adjusted, average daily sales basis
  • Substantially completed the integration of RITA Medical into AngioDynamics operations and systems
  • Finalized consolidation actions to achieve the anticipated $9 million in cost savings from the RITA Medical operations in fiscal 2008
  • Successfully launched the NeverTouch VenaCure® product on June 2, 2007
  • Expanded the PTA Balloon Dilation Catheter Portfolio with launch of Profiler®
  • Promoted industry veteran, John Soto, to lead global sales team
  • Appointed Joseph Gersuk, who brought more than 25 years of senior financial executive experience, to the role of chief financial officer

Fiscal Year Results

For fiscal year 2007, The Company reported $112.2 million in net sales, a 43% increase over the $78.5 million reported a year ago. Of the $112.2 million in net sales for fiscal 2007, AngioDynamics products constituted $93.6 million and RITA Medical products constituted $18.6 million. AngioDynamics product sales grew 19% over the prior fiscal year. The net loss for fiscal 2007, inclusive of the accounting for the acquisition of RITA Medical, litigation damages, and stock based compensation was $9.1 million, or $0.49 per share.

Fiscal 2008 Guidance

  • Net sales in the range of $170- $175 million
  • Approximately 45% of sales expected during the first half of the fiscal year and 55% of sales expected during the second half of the fiscal year; first quarter expected to be lowest sales quarter
  • Gross profit margin in the range of 61-62%
  • GAAP operating income in the range of $20-$22 million
  • GAAP EPS in the range of $0.56 - $0.60
  • Non-GAAP income of at least $30 million. Non-GAAP income excludes stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and includes the cash benefit from the use of NOLs.

The Company also announced today that it has changed its fiscal period to end on the last day of the calendar month. Effective beginning in fiscal 2008, fiscal quarters will end on August 31, November 30, February 28 or 29, and the fiscal year will end on May 31.

In many ways fiscal 2007 was an extraordinary year for AngioDynamics, continued Mr. Hobbs. The year was highlighted by our January acquisition of RITA Medical and the associated broadening of the AngioDynamics product lines to include leading edge oncology products. The acquisition brings a talented team that complements the experienced and proven team at AngioDynamics. I would like to thank all of our employees for their hard work and enthusiasm this past year in the face of many challenges. I am extremely proud of our team and am excited by the momentum we have as we pursue our goal of long-term industry leadership, concluded Mr. Hobbs.

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 the Company's 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, the Company has reported non-GAAP measures, adjusted income and adjusted EPS. Adjusted income and adjusted EPS excludes certain expenses relating to the acquisition of RITA Medical, stock-based compensation expense, litigation damages, and includes the cash benefit from the use of acquired net operating losses, and assumed taxes on net income using a 39% tax rate, where applicable. 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 the Company's performance over different periods, particularly when comparing this period to periods in which the Company did not incur any expenses relating to these activities or items. By using these non-GAAP measures, management believes that investors get a better picture of the performance of the Company's underlying business. Management encourages investors to review the Company's net loss prepared in accordance with GAAP to understand the Company's performance taking into account all relevant factors, including those that may only occur from time to time but have a material impact on the Company's financial results. Please see the tables that follow for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.
