Recurring revenue comprised of supplies, test kits, service, royalty revenue and operating-type lease payments, continued its steady performance increasing more than 13%. Clinical Diagnostics' recurring revenue increased 14.1% over prior year quarter, led by Access-family Immunoassay growth of more than 20%. Total company cash instrument sales increased 25%; continued strength in emerging markets, sales in Chemistry and Clinical Automation and a reduction of the Cellular Analysis backlog were the big contributors to cash instrument sales growth.
On a geographic basis, second quarter revenue in
Garrett said, "We continued to make great progress in the second quarter extending our installed base and emerging markets' position with placements of new systems. Accelerated penetration of Clinical Lab Automation also contributed to the rapid growth of cash instrument sales. While expansion of our installed base, particularly outside the U.S., is unfavorable in the short-term from a mix and gross margin perspective, the associated recurring revenue in future periods positions the company for reliable and sustainable revenue and earnings growth. Within the quarter, rising transportation costs and adverse mix were effectively absorbed to deliver on our earnings objectives."
Despite these challenges, gross profit margin improved 30 basis points to
46.2% versus second quarter 2007. Operating income was

First Half Summary
For the first six months of 2008, revenue increased 17.3%, with the
recently acquired flow cytometry products contributing 1% to this growth.
Revenue growth was 12.8% in constant currency, versus first half 2007.
Year-to-date recurring revenue was up 13.1%, or 8.5% in constant currency.
Year-to-date gross margin, impacted by mix reflecting high growth levels in
cash instrument and international sales, decreased 100 basis points to 46.1%
compared to the first six months of 2007. Adjusting for special items,
operating income increased by 12.9% to
Adjusted operating margin decreased 40 basis points due to
Full Year Outlook
Garrett continued, "I am pleased that first half operating income grew almost 13% despite pressures from transportation costs and incremental costs associated with the currency swap extension and dilution from the flow cytometry acquisition. Revenue across all major diagnostics product areas was up considerably. Strong growth in diagnostics recurring revenue signals the productivity of recent additions to our installed base.
"Cash instrument sales growth, ahead of expectations in the first half,
has led us to adjust our revenue and operating margin outlook for the year.
Assuming stable currency, full year revenue growth should be in the range of
12% to 14%. We expect 2008 adjusted operating margin to be approximately 12%.
The outlook for adjusted non-operating expense for the full year should be
about
"As we look to the second half of 2008, we anticipate that the above market growth in Cellular Analysis will moderate due to the first half resolution of the backlog affecting Hematology and Flow Cytometry instrumentation. Further, growth in Life Sciences is expected to return to low single digits. These anticipated trends should contribute to a lower growth rate for the second half and a less instrument-intensive mix. Strong growth in Immunoassay as well as Chemistry and Clinical Automation should continue as new product introductions, such as the AutoMate 600 Sample Processor and three additional work cells, support positive momentum. Strong growth of total and recurring revenue along with the benefits of our lean six sigma program should enable us to meet our EPS objectives while funding investment in important high potential growth areas, such as molecular diagnostics, work cells, next generation cellular systems, new tests, technologies and emerging markets," Garrett concluded.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"GAAP" refers to financial information presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in
To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements and
discussion presented on a GAAP basis, this press release includes non-GAAP
financial measures with respect to the three and six months ended
Adjusted operating income excludes the impact of charges or write-offs associated with acquisitions, restructuring, or relocations in connection with our supply chain improvement initiatives and other operating income and expense items that we do not expect to be recurring. Some of the items excluded may be beyond the control of management and are less predictable than our core performance. Although management expects to incur costs for its supply chain initiatives in 2008 and 2009, management has not developed plans for those initiatives in sufficient detail to estimate the costs to be incurred in those periods and believes those costs do not reflect the ongoing performance of the core business. Management uses adjusted operating income to prepare operating budgets and forecasts and to measure our performance against those budgets and forecasts. Additionally, the Company uses adjusted operating income to evaluate management performance for compensation purposes. A reconciliation of operating income, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted operating income, is provided on the attached schedule.
Adjusted operating margin is calculated using adjusted operating income, as described above, divided by revenue. Management uses adjusted operating margin in its analysis of operating budgets and forecasts and to measure our performance against those budgets and forecasts, since this measure is reflective of our operating costs on an ongoing basis and excludes transactions or events that may be beyond the control of management or which are unpredictable. Management uses adjusted operating margin when evaluating the performance trends of our company compared to others. A reconciliation of operating margin, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted operating margin, is provided on the attached schedule.
Adjusted net earnings excludes the impact of income and expense items excluded from adjusted operating income, as described above, and non-operating income and expense items that we do not expect to be recurring. Adjusted net earnings also exclude the related incremental tax effect of these items. Adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of those same items from diluted earnings per share. Reconciliations of net earnings, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted net earnings, and earnings per share, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted earnings per share, are provided on the attached schedule.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") is a non-GAAP measure that management believes provides useful supplemental information for management and investors. Adjusted EBITDA is a tool that provides a measure of the adjusted net earnings, as described above, of the business before considering the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe adjusted EBITDA provides management with a means to analyze and evaluate the profitability of our business and its ability to generate cash flow before the effect of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. A reconciliation of net earnings, the GAAP measure most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA, is provided on the attached schedule.
Our discussion of international revenue includes comparisons on a constant currency basis, which we have previously defined in our annual report on Form 10-K. We believe use of this measure aids in the understanding of our operations without the impact of foreign currency. This presentation is consistent with our internal use of the measure, which we use to measure the profitability of ongoing operating results against prior periods and against our internally developed targets. We believe our investors also use this measure to analyze the underlying trends in our international operations.
Our Outlook for 2008 adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted pretax profit growth, adjusted non-operating expense, adjusted tax rate, adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of charges or write-offs associated with acquisitions, restructuring, including relocations in connection with our supply chain improvement initiatives, gains or losses upon sale of assets or businesses and other items that we do not expect to be recurring, because we are unable to forecast such items with reasonable predictability and do not include those items in our operating budgets. Although management expects to incur costs for its supply chain initiatives in 2008 and 2009, management has not developed plans for those initiatives in sufficient detail to estimate the costs to be incurred in those periods and believes those costs do not reflect of the ongoing performance of the core business. The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of projected non-GAAP financial measures to expected reported results due to the unknown effect, timing and potential significance of special charges and our inability to forecast charges associated with future transactions and initiatives. However, management believes our Outlook for 2008, using the non-GAAP measures indicated, reflects management's expectation of the performance of the core operations of the company and believes this information is useful to investors to view our operations through the eyes of management.
The presentation of historical non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP measures to supplement net earnings and other corresponding measures on a basis prepared in conformance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect additional ways of viewing aspects of our operations that when viewed with our GAAP results provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. However, investors should understand that the excluded items are actual income and expenses that may impact the cash available to us for other uses. We strongly encourage investors to consider both net earnings and cash flows determined under GAAP as compared to the non-GAAP measures presented and to perform their own analysis, as appropriate.
