Excluding the contribution of revenues from acquisitions, discontinued products and the effect of currency exchange rates, revenues increased 10.7% over the second quarter of 2015.

“Solid performance from our two segments, as well as strength in both U.S. and international sales, contributed to the results for the second quarter,” said Peter Arduini, Integra’s President and Chief Executive Officer.  “We are accelerating growth as we continue to execute on our clinical and commercial strategy with the launch of several new products, including Omnigraft for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.”

The Company reported GAAP net income of $12.8 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2016 compared to GAAP net income of $12.0 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015.  Results for the second quarter of 2016 include the addition of 3.8 million shares issued in an equity offering in August 2015 and approximately 1.6 million diluted shares associated with the December 2016 convertible notes and warrants.

Adjusted measures discussed below are computed with the adjustments to GAAP reporting set forth in the attached reconciliation.

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $30.3 million, or $0.79 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $24.9 million, or $0.75 per share, in the second quarter of 2015.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2016 was $54.6 million, or 21.9% of revenue, compared to $47.7 million, or 22.4% of revenue, in the prior year’s second quarter.

Operating cash flow for the second quarter was $38.1 million.  Adjusted free cash flow conversion for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2016 was 59.8% versus 80.6% in the prior-year trailing twelve-month period.

The Company elected to adopt accounting standard FASB Update No. 2016-09 in the second quarter of 2016.  Excluding the benefit of this adoption, the Company’s second quarter GAAP earnings per share would have been $0.30, and adjusted earnings per share would have been $0.78.  The adoption of this standard allows the Company to recognize increased tax benefits, which were previously recorded in shareholders’ equity, through the income statement when employees exercise options or when shares vest.  The adoption of this standard is reflected in our results as if it had occurred at the beginning of the year.  The early adoption of this accounting standard decreased our tax expense in the second quarter of 2016 and had a GAAP net impact of $0.07 per share on a year-to-date basis.  This impact was a $0.03 benefit to adjusted earnings per share on a six-month basis, since we treat the discrete benefit as a rate item in our adjusted tax rate.  We expect that the full-year benefit to both our GAAP and adjusted results will be about $0.07 per share, although the GAAP benefit has been recognized during the first six months of the year, and the adjusted benefit will be recognized as a $0.03 benefit in the first half and approximately $0.04 in the second half of 2016.  The Company is providing a supplemental schedule on the website to show first quarter results as if the new standard had been adopted.  Access to that supplemental information is available at investor.integralife.com.

Outlook for 2016

Based on the second quarter’s results, the Company is raising its full-year 2016 revenue guidance to a new range of $992 million to $1.002 billion, up from prior guidance of $985 million to $1.0 billion.  The Company is raising its full-year 2016 organic revenue growth to 9% from its previous guidance of approximately 8%.  The Company is also raising its full-year GAAP and adjusted earnings per share guidance by $0.04 per diluted share and narrowing our guidance range to a new range of $1.78 – $1.88 and $3.43 – $3.53, respectively.  This change reflects the impact from the adoption of the new accounting change, the expected additional share dilution on the 2016 convertible notes and warrants, and a slight outperformance in the second quarter results.

“In the second quarter, we continued to see positive momentum across our product portfolio, which allowed us to continue to make investments in our clinical pipeline and commercial infrastructure,” said Glenn Coleman, Integra’s Chief Financial Officer.  “We continue to expect margin expansion as we move through the back half of the year and are well-positioned to meet our full-year financial and strategic objectives.”

In the future, the Company may record, or expects to record, certain additional revenues, gains, expenses or charges as described in the Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures below that it will exclude in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share for historical periods and in providing adjusted earnings per share guidance.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures

In addition to our GAAP results, we provide organic revenues, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion.  Organic revenues consist of total revenues excluding the effects of currency exchange rates, acquired revenues and product discontinuances.  Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income from continuing operations, excluding: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) other income (expense), (iii) interest income and expense, (iv) income taxes, (v) and those operating expenses also excluded from adjusted net income.  The measure of adjusted net income consists of GAAP net income from continuing operations, excluding: (i) global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) implementation charges; (ii) structural optimization charges; (iii) certain employee severance charges; (iv) acquisition-related charges; (v) convertible debt noncash interest; (vi) intangible asset amortization expense; and (vii) income tax impact from adjustments and other items.  The measure of adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding is calculated by adding the economic benefit of the convertible note hedge transactions relating to Integra’s 2016 convertible notes.  The adjusted earnings per diluted share measure is calculated by dividing adjusted net income attributable to diluted shares by adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding.  The measure of free cash flow consists of GAAP net cash provided by continuing operating activities from continuing operations less purchases of property and equipment.  The adjusted free cash flow conversion measure is calculated by dividing free cash flow by adjusted net income.

Reconciliations of GAAP revenues to adjusted revenues and GAAP Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net income, and GAAP earnings per diluted share to adjusted earnings per diluted share all for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the free cash flow and free cash flow conversion for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and the twelve months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, appear in the financial tables in this release.

The Company believes that the presentation of organic revenues and the various adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.  For further information regarding why Integra believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, the specific manner in which management uses these measures, and some of the limitations associated with the use of these measures, please refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K regarding this earnings press release filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  This Current Report on Form 8-K is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on our website at www.integralife.com.

Segment revenues and growth in total revenues excluding the effects of currency exchange rates, acquisitions and discontinued products are as follows:

Items included in GAAP net income from continuing operations and location where each item is recorded are as follows:

a)  COGS – Cost of goods sold
b)  SG&A – Selling, general and administrative
c)  Amort. – Intangible asset amortization
d)  OI&E – Interest (income) expense, net and other (income) expense, net
e)  Tax – Income tax expense

* Adjusted net income for quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are reconciled above.  Adjusted net income for remaining quarters in the trailing twelve months calculation have been previously reconciled and are publicly available in the Quarterly Earnings Call Presentations and the Historical Financial Results: Continuing Operations presentation on our website investor.integralife.com under Events & Presentations.

The Company calculates adjusted free cash flow conversion by dividing its free cash flow by adjusted net income.  The Company believes this measure is a useful metric in evaluating the significance of the cash special charges in its adjusted earnings measures.
