AUDUBON, PA, May 2, 2013: Globus Medical, Inc. (NYSE:GMED), a leading spinal implant manufacturer, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

 

  • Worldwide sales were $105.0 million, a 10.9% increase from the first quarter of 2012
  • Net income was $19.9 million or $0.21 per diluted share
  • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was 33.8% of sales

 

I am very pleased with this quarter's results, especially measured against our strong first quarter last year. Once again, our ability to deliver innovative products, attract top sales force talent and maintain financial discipline has enabled us to consistently deliver superior growth and profitability. We launched two products this quarter, and are on track to reach our annual target of 5-10 new products annually, commented David Paul, Chairman and CEO.

 

First quarter net sales were $105.0 million, compared to $94.7 million last year, representing a 10.9% increase. Sales in the US grew by 9.4%, over 2012, and International revenue grew by 30.0% over the same quarter in 2012 and currently represents 8.3% of total sales.    

 

Net income for the quarter was $19.9 million or $0.21 per diluted share, as compared to $17.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in 2012. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was 33.8% of net sales, compared to 35.9% last year. Also impacting this quarter's non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was the Medical Device Excise Tax.

 

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities for the quarter increased by $11.7 million, ending the first quarter of 2013 at $224.1 million. The company remains debt free.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest (income)/expense, net and other non-operating expenses, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration in connection with business acquisitions and provision for litigation settlements. This financial measure is not calculated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful indicator of our operating performance.   Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA principally as a measure of our operating performance and believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in industries similar to ours. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to our management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance, and it removes the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of our management (primarily income taxes and interest income and expense). Our management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections.


Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for a measure of our liquidity or operating performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not indicative of net income (loss) from operations as determined under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures have limitations that should be considered before using these measures to evaluate our liquidity or financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA does not include certain expenses that may be necessary to review our operating results and liquidity requirements. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from that of other companies.
