CryoLife, Inc. (NYSE: CRY), a leading cardiac and vascular surgery company focused on aortic disease, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018.
"2018 was a very successful year for CryoLife highlighted by strong revenue growth and progress on our clinical and R&D programs," said Pat Mackin, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. "Looking ahead, we remain confident in our ability to deliver high single digit annual revenue growth over each of the next five years driven by our highly differentiated JOTEC and On-X product portfolios and new introductions from our extensive product pipeline."
Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2018 were $67.8 million, reflecting growth of 28% on a reported basis and 8% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily driven by $16.7 million in revenues from JOTEC in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to $4.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2017 and strong revenue growth from On-X and tissue processing.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2018 was ($1.7) million, or ($0.05) per fully diluted common share, compared to net loss of ($3.0) million, or ($0.09) per fully diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2017. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2018 was $1.9 million, or $0.05 per fully diluted common share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $4.8 million, or $0.14 per fully diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2017. Earnings reflect higher than anticipated costs in the fourth quarter due to the acceleration of spending on our product pipeline, and increased costs related to international growth.
Full Year 2018 Financial Results
Total revenues for 2018 were $262.8 million, reflecting growth of 39% on a reported basis and 10% on a non-GAAP constant currency basis compared to 2017. The increase was driven by growth in the On-X and JOTEC product lines as well as the tissue processing business. For 2018, On-X and JOTEC non-GAAP revenues increased by 21% and 25%, respectively, versus 2017.
Reported net loss for 2018 was ($3.8) million, or ($0.10) per share compared to net income of $3.7 million or $0.11 per share for 2017. Non-GAAP net income for 2018 was $9.7 million, or $0.26 a share compared to non-GAAP net income of $16.7 million, or $0.48 per share in 2017.
The independent registered public accounting firm's audit report with respect to the Company's fiscal year-end financial statements will not be issued until the Company completes its annual report on Form 10-K, including its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting. Accordingly, the financial results reported in this earnings release are preliminary pending completion of the audit.
2019 Financial Outlook
CryoLife expects total revenues for 2019 to be in the range of $280 million to $284 million and non-GAAP earnings per share of between $0.28 and $0.32.
All numbers are presented on a GAAP basis except where expressly referenced as non-GAAP. The Company does not provide GAAP income per common share on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty business development and acquisition-related expenses, purchase accounting fair value adjustments, and any unusual gains and losses without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to results computed in accordance with GAAP.
The Company's financial guidance for 2019 is subject to the risks identified below.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies. The Company's non-GAAP revenues include JOTEC revenues for the same eleven-month period in 2017 prior to the closing of the acquisition of JOTEC on December 1, 2017. The Company did not own JOTEC until the eleven-month period ended December 1, 2017, so the Company is unable to report its GAAP revenue growth for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. The Company's other non-GAAP results exclude (as applicable) business development and integration expenses, amortization expense, and inventory basis step-up expense. The Company believes that these non-GAAP presentations provide useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions, and the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its on-going efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses and the transaction and integration expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired and divested product lines. The Company believes it is useful to exclude certain expenses because such amounts in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of its business operations or can vary significantly between periods as a result of factors such as acquisitions, or non-cash expense related to amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets. The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a statement or indication that these types of expenses will not recur.
Webcast and Conference Call Information
The Company will hold a teleconference call and live webcast tomorrow, February 14, 2019 at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss the results followed by a question and answer session. To listen to the live teleconference, please dial 201-689-8261.
