LATHAM, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 11, 2018-- AngioDynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGO), a leading provider of innovative, minimally invasive medical devices for vascular access, peripheral vascular disease, oncology and surgery, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year, which ended May 31, 2018.

“Our quarterly and full-year results showed further improvement in our operational outcomes, continuing our path to sustainable long-term growth. We are very pleased with our year-over-year gross margin expansion and solid profitability, as well as our consistent free cash flow generation,” commented Jim Clemmer, President and Chief Executive Officer of AngioDynamics, Inc. “Our Oncology ablation systems, AngioVac thrombus management product, and Fluid Management family of products are each examples of where we are well positioned to win and grow the value of the Company. We will continue to actively focus on pursuing our portfolio optimization strategy, which includes both internal and external growth opportunities. We will look to augment those areas where we currently have a product family foundation with additional opportunities to win, driving sustainable long-term revenue growth.”

Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 were $88.3 million, an increase of 1.6%, compared to $86.9 million a year ago. During the quarter, growth in the Fluid Management, Angiographic Catheters, and AngioVac product lines, as well as two of the Company’s Ablation Systems, Solero® and NanoKnife®, was partially offset by declines in its Venous Insufficiency business, PICCs and Midline products.

Currency had a positive impact on net sales of approximately 50 basis points for both the fourth quarter and full year.

Peripheral Vascular net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 were $52.6 million, a decrease of 2.4% from $53.9 million a year ago, as growth in the Fluid Management, Angiographic catheters, and AngioVac product lines was more than offset by declines in the Venous Insufficiency and Thrombolytic businesses. Oncology/Surgery net sales were $12.1 million, an increase of 37.5% from $8.8 million a year ago, as strong growth in our Solero Microwave Ablation System and an increase in sales of NanoKnife,were partially offset by lower sales of RFA. Vascular Access net sales were $23.6 million, a decrease of 2.5% from $24.2 million a year ago, as growth in Ports and Dialysis products was more than offset by declines in PICCs.

U.S. net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 were $70.3 million, a decrease of 0.7% from $70.8 million a year ago, primarily due to lower sales of our Venous Insufficiency, PICCs, RFA, and NanoKnife product lines. International net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 were $18.0 million, an increase of 11.8% from $16.1 million a year ago, primarily due to strong performance in Europe.

Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 expanded 500 basis points to 53.7% from 48.7% a year ago, largely as a result of the prior-year Acculis recall that was announced in the fourth quarter of 2017 along with ongoing operational improvements, recently completed facility consolidation, and the expiration of a royalty arrangement in the second quarter of fiscal 2018.

The Company recorded net income of $2.1 million, or $0.06 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. This compares to a net loss of $12.9 million, or $0.35 per share, a year ago. The improvement in net income was primarily attributable to the reserves for legal matters related to Department of Justice subpoenas, as well as the Acculis recall that were both recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Excluding the items shown in the non-GAAP reconciliation table below, adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 was $7.7 million, or $0.20 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $6.8 million, or $0.19 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

Adjusted EBITDAS in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, excluding the items shown in the reconciliation table below, was $15.6 million, compared to $14.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company generated $23.8 million in operating cash flow and $23.0 million in free cash flow. As of May 31, 2018, the Company had $74.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and $92.5 million in debt, excluding the impact of deferred financing costs.

Full-Year 2018 Financial Results

For the twelve months ended May 31, 2018:

  • Net sales were $344.3 million, a decrease of 1.5%, compared to $349.6 million for the same period a year ago.
  • The Company's net income was $16.3 million, or $0.44 per share, compared to net income of $5.0 million, or $0.14 per share, a year ago.
  • Excluding the items shown in the non-GAAP reconciliation table below, adjusted net income for the twelve months ended May 31, 2018 was $27.6 million, or $0.74 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $27.0 million, or $0.73 per share, a year ago.
  • Adjusted EBITDAS, excluding the items shown in the reconciliation table below, was $57.0 million, compared to $58.7 million for the same period a year ago.

Fiscal Year 2019 Financial Guidance

The Company expects its fiscal year 2019 net sales to be in the range of $344 to $349 million and free cash flow in the range of $38 to $43 million, excluding an approximately $12.5 million cash payment to the Department of Justice related to previously disclosed legal matters. The Company expects its adjusted earnings per share in the range of $0.82 to $0.86.
