Hillrom Reports Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2020 Financial Results

CHICAGO, Nov. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Hillrom (NYSE: HRC) today announced financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended September 30, 2020, and provided financial guidance for fiscal 2021.

For fiscal 2020, Hillrom reported GAAP earnings of $3.32 per diluted share compared to $2.25 per diluted share for fiscal 2019. Adjusted earnings of $5.53 per diluted share advanced 9 percent over the prior-year period and exceeded the company's projection of at least $5.40 per diluted share. For the fiscal fourth quarter, Hillrom reported GAAP earnings of $0.63 per diluted share compared to $0.41 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Adjusted earnings of $1.17 declined 31 percent compared to the prior-year period. Adjustments to reported earnings are detailed in the reconciliation schedules provided.

"We delivered on our fiscal fourth quarter expectations and achieved full-year adjusted earnings growth of 9 percent, in line with our original guidance range provided a year ago," said John Groetelaars, Hillrom president and CEO. "I'm very proud of our progress in 2020 toward our vision of Advancing Connected Care(TM), the extraordinary efforts to support peak customer demand, and steps we have taken to accelerate Hillrom's business transformation. With compelling value propositions across our diverse portfolio of connected solutions, we enter fiscal 2021 with encouraging recovery trends, confidence in our future growth prospects, and an unwavering commitment to enhancing shareholder value."

Fiscal 2020 and Fourth Quarter Financial Results

For fiscal 2020, worldwide revenue of $2.88 billion declined 1 percent on a reported and constant currency basis. Hillrom's core revenue advanced 3 percent for the year, including the contributions from acquisitions of approximately 200 basis points and approximately $180 million from one-time COVID-related purchases. Core revenue excludes foreign currency, divestitures, non-strategic assets the company exited and the Surgical Solutions international OEM business.

For the fiscal fourth quarter, worldwide revenue of $705 million, including approximately $35 million from one-time COVID-related purchases, declined 10 percent on a reported basis, or 11 percent on a constant currency basis. Hillrom's core revenue also declined 10 percent.

Fiscal Fourth Quarter Revenue by reporting segment:

    --  Patient Support Systems revenue of $365 million declined 12 percent on a
        reported basis, or 13 percent on a constant currency basis. Performance
        reflects a challenging comparison to a record finish in the fourth
        quarter of fiscal 2019, the impact of the COVID-19 peak demand for
        med-surg and ICU bed systems in the fiscal third quarter, and nearly 30
        percent sequential growth in the company's care communications
        platforms. Partially offsetting U.S. weakness was strong international
        growth of 17 percent on a constant currency basis, driven by elevated
        demand for med-surg and ICU bed systems.

    --  Front Line Care generated revenue of $260 million, an increase of 1
        percent on a reported and constant currency basis driven by strong
        demand for Welch Allyn vital signs and blood pressure monitoring
        equipment, thermometry and non-invasive ventilators. Other product
        categories, including physical assessment and diagnostic tools, declined
        year-over-year in the U.S., but showed sequential improvement as
        physician office visits returned to near pre-COVID levels.
    --  Surgical Solutions revenue of $80 million declined 27 percent on a
        reported basis, or 29 percent on a constant currency basis, reflecting
        project delays, lower demand for surgical capital equipment, and the
        2019 surgical consumables divestiture. Core revenue declined 27 percent.

2020 Highlights

Hillrom achieved significant milestones in 2020 aimed at realizing our vision of Advancing Connected Care, transforming the portfolio through innovation and M&A, and delivering sustainable value to shareholders. Highlights include:

    --  Advancing category leadership with more than $570 million in new product
        revenue during fiscal 2020. Contributing to this performance were
        several innovative products, including the company's portfolio of smart
        beds, vital signs monitoring devices, respiratory and vision products,
        as well as Integrated Table Motion.

    --  Rapidly developing and introducing more than a half-dozen new products,
        many used in support of COVID-19 treatment, in the areas of care
        communications, remote monitoring, respiratory health and surgical
        workflow. These products expand the company's diverse portfolio and
        include the following: Voalte® Extend(TM), a simplified mobile
        communication platform that enables patient to caregiver communication;
        the Extended Care Solution(TM), a connected remote vital signs
        monitoring device that allows clinicians to shift care closer to home;
        the Welch Allyn® Spot Vital Signs® 4400 next generation vital signs
        device, which allows clinicians to remotely receive a complete set of
        vitals, including SPO(2), temperature and blood pressure; two new
        respiratory devices: Volara(TM) System for oscillation and lung
        expansion therapy for use in both the acute and home settings, and
        Synclara(TM) cough system to help clear mucus from upper airways; and
        the PST 500, a precision surgical table that streamlines workflow in the
        operating room.

    --  Playing a critical role in the global fight against COVID-19 and
        significantly increasing manufacturing capacity to meet elevated demand
        for select products, including med-surg and ICU hospital beds,
        non-invasive ventilators, patient monitoring devices, and certain
        physical assessment tools and consumables.

    --  Enhancing the company's portfolio of connected care solutions with three
        acquisitions, Excel Medical Electronics LLC, Connecta Soft, and Videomed
        S.r.l, bringing advanced, actionable point-of-care data to caregivers
        and healthcare provider organizations.

    --  Generating operating cash flow for the year of $482 million, reducing
        debt by $147 million, and delivering significant value to shareholders
        through increased dividends and share repurchases. During fiscal 2020,
        Hillrom raised its dividend for the tenth consecutive year and returned
        $129 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.
        The company's strong financial position is supported by a healthy
        balance sheet, including $297 million in cash and cash equivalents, and
        revolving credit facilities totaling $1.2 billion that can be used to
        address capital needs as necessary.

    --  Demonstrating commitment and support of local, national and
        international communities with both monetary and product donations
        totaling more than $6.5 million, including medical devices well-suited
        for critical and intensive care environments to 25 U.S. hospitals
        fighting COVID-19.
    --  Promoting excellence in the workplace and commitment to diversity,
        inclusion and belonging initiatives as the recipient of multiple awards
        and recognitions, including the Ecovadis Gold Award for Sustainable
        Procurement, Great Place To Work® certification in France and Mexico,
        and DiversityInc Noteworthy Company. Hillrom also extended gender
        diversity in the boardroom, bringing women representation to 36 percent
        of the company's board of directors.

Fiscal 2021 Financial Outlook

For fiscal 2021, Hillrom expects revenue to decline 3 to 5 percent on a reported and constant currency basis. The company expects adjusted earnings of $5.25 to $5.45 per diluted share and operating cash flow of $370 to $400 million. The company expects to complete the exit of the Surgical Solutions international OEM business at the end of the 2020 calendar year, and as previously communicated, is retiring the definition of core revenue for fiscal 2021.

For the fiscal first quarter 2021, Hillrom expects revenue to decline 3 to 5 percent on a reported and constant currency basis. The company expects adjusted earnings of $1.05 to $1.10 per diluted share.

The company currently anticipates normalized demand for products that peaked during fiscal 2020 in support of COVID-19 needs, as well as a gradual recovery for other product categories that were negatively impacted. The ongoing scope and evolution of the pandemic remains uncertain and could present pandemic-related risks or opportunities that may require updates to the fiscal 2021 guidance ranges provided today.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), Hillrom routinely provides gross margin, operating margin, income before taxes, income tax expense, and earnings per diluted share results on an adjusted basis because the company's management believes these measures contribute to an understanding of our financial performance, provide additional analytical tools to understand our results from core operations and reveal underlying operating trends. These measures exclude strategic developments, acquisition and integration costs and related fair value adjustments, gains and losses associated with disposals of businesses or significant product lines, regulatory costs related to updating existing product registrations to comply with the European Medical Device Regulations, special charges, the transitional impacts of U.S. tax reform legislation, changes in tax accounting methods, other tax law changes and expenses associated with these tax items, the impacts of significant litigation matters, certain impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other unusual events. The company also excludes expenses associated with the amortization of purchased intangible assets. These adjustments are made to allow investors to evaluate and understand operating trends excluding their impact on operating income and earnings per diluted share.

Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the business. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP measures to adjusted measures appear in the financial tables of this release.

The company also routinely provides earnings per diluted share guidance on an adjusted basis. This excludes the impact of intangible asset amortization associated with prior business acquisitions, which we expect to be $1.27 to $1.32 per diluted share for the fiscal year 2021. Management also does not include adjusted items such as strategic developments, acquisition and integration costs, special charges, and other special items or unusual items in our guidance because such items are evaluated on an ongoing basis, can be highly variable and cannot be reasonably predicted. As such, prospective quantification of these items is not feasible, and a full reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings per diluted share guidance to GAAP earnings per diluted share has not been provided. However, as a result of acquisitions, our ongoing portfolio and business optimization initiatives, and any change to the transitional impacts from U.S. tax reform legislation, we do expect adjusted items we have not predicted to potentially be significant to our GAAP measures including gross margin, operating margin, income tax expense and earnings per diluted share.

The company also presents certain results on a constant currency basis, which compares results between periods as if foreign currency exchange rates had remained consistent period-over-period. Management monitors sales performance on an adjusted basis that eliminates the positive or negative effects that result from translating international sales into U.S. dollars. Management calculates constant currency by applying the foreign currency exchange rate for the prior period to the local currency results for the current period. Management believes that evaluating growth in net revenue on a constant currency basis provides an additional and meaningful assessment to both management and investors.
