IDEXX Laboratories Announces Second Quarter Results

Distributed by Press Release

WESTBROOK, Maine, July 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- IDEXX Laboratories, Inc. (Nasdaq: IDXX), today reported that revenue for the second quarter of 2008 increased 18% to $280.6 million from $237.0 million for the second quarter of 2007. Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 were $0.63, compared to $0.34 for the same period in the prior year. Second quarter 2007 results included several discrete items detailed in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliation table that reduced reported EPS by $0.10. There were no adjustments to EPS related to discrete items in the second quarter of 2008. Diluted EPS grew 43% when compared to second quarter 2007 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.44.

"Our results for both the second quarter and the first half of the year demonstrate the consistency of our revenue and profit model. The economic environment contributed to slightly slower organic revenue growth compared to recent quarters after taking into account exceptional revenues from one of our pharmaceutical products; however, we had strong earnings growth and above plan operating margins," said Jonathan W. Ayers, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to see solid revenue trends overall, particularly in the companion animal veterinary market, and we have raised our earnings per share guidance for the full year of 2008, even as we remain somewhat cautious about the economic outlook."

"We also continue to achieve milestones in the controlled launch of our next generation point-of-care instrument systems, Catalyst Dx(TM) and SNAPshot Dx(TM). We are gaining customer experience with the early placements and, as part of the controlled launch process, are incorporating refinements in the instruments' design and software, all while building a backlog of orders for higher volume shipments in the second half of the year."

Revenue Performance

Companion Animal Group ("CAG") revenue for the second quarter of 2008 increased 19% to $230.8 million from $194.0 million for the second quarter of 2007. Acquisitions of reference laboratories contributed less than 1% to CAG revenue growth and changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed an additional 4%. Growth for the quarter adjusted for acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rates was 15%. The increase in CAG revenue was due to increased sales volume across all lines of business, most notably in our pharmaceuticals business where incremental sales of PZI VET(R), our insulin product for the treatment of diabetic cats, contributed an estimated $10 million, or 5%, to CAG revenue growth. In the second quarter we announced that we would be discontinuing this product because the raw material is no longer available, which resulted in the subsequent sale of all of our remaining PZI VET(R) inventory.

Water segment revenue for the second quarter of 2008 increased 18% to $20.2 million from $17.1 million for the second quarter of 2007 as higher sales volume offset lower average unit sales prices driven by changes in regional sales mix. Higher sales volumes reflected the distribution of water testing kits manufactured by Invitrogen Corporation under an arrangement that commenced in September 2007, which contributed 8% to Water revenue growth. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates also added 4% to Water revenue growth.

Production Animal Segment ("PAS") revenue for the second quarter of 2008 increased 15% to $21.5 million from $18.7 million for the second quarter of 2007 as higher livestock diagnostics sales volume offset lower average unit sales prices resulting from increased price competition. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed 11% to PAS revenue growth.

Year-to-Date Results

Year-to-date revenue increased 18% to $529.6 million from $448.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2008, adjusted for the impacts of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rates, increased 12%.

Year-to-date diluted EPS increased 61% to $1.06 from $0.66 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.04 grew 33% when compared to 2007 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.78.

Additional Operating Results for the Second Quarter

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2008 increased $37.0 million, or 32%, to $151.3 million from $114.2 million for the second quarter of 2007. Gross margin increased to 54% from 48%. Gross margin in the second quarter of 2007 was depressed by the write-off of inventory and prepaid royalties related to our Navigator pharmaceutical product.

Research and development ("R&D") expense for the second quarter of 2008 was $18.3 million compared to $17.3 million for the second quarter of 2007. As a percentage of revenue, R&D expense was 7% in both the second quarter of 2007 and 2008. R&D expense growth reflected higher personnel costs due, in part, to increased headcount and increased corporate research and development resources dedicated to software for information management. These increases were partly offset by a decrease in product development spending related to our Catalyst Dx(TM) and SNAPshot Dx(TM) analyzers, which were launched in the first quarter.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense for the second quarter of 2008 was $74.1 million, or 26% of revenue, compared to $64.4 million, or 27% of revenue, for the second quarter of 2007. Growth in SG&A expense reflected increased headcount and worldwide expansion of sales, marketing and customer support resources as well as the unfavorable impact of exchange rates on foreign currency denominated expenses.

Supplementary Analysis of Results

The accompanying financial tables provide more information concerning our revenue and other operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, as well as a reconciliation of non-GAAP diluted EPS to earnings per share.

Outlook

The Company offers the following revised guidance for the full year of 2008:

-- Revenue is expected to be $1.06 billion to $1.07 billion, updated from guidance of $1.06 billion to $1.075 billion provided in April of this year, which represents revenue growth of 15% to 16%.

-- Diluted EPS are expected to be $1.89 to $1.92, updated from guidance of $1.84 to $1.87 provided in April of this year, which represents EPS growth of 29% to 32%.

-- Non-GAAP diluted EPS are expected to be $1.87 to $1.90, reflecting growth of 18% to 20%. Non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes the impact of discrete income tax benefits in 2008 and acquisition-related purchase accounting and acquisition integration costs and the write-down of certain pharmaceutical assets in 2007.

    Management believes adjusted diluted EPS is a useful non-GAAP financial
    measure to evaluate the results of ongoing operations, excluding
    significant specified events, period over period, and therefore believes
    that investors may find this information useful in addition to the GAAP
    results.
    We use these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the
    Company's comparative financial performance. The specified items that are
    excluded in these non-GAAP measures are actual charges that impact net
    income and cash flows, however, we believe that it is useful to evaluate
    our core business performance period over period excluding these specified
    items, in addition to relying upon GAAP financial measures.
    (1) We believe that the write-down of certain pharmaceutical assets is not
    indicative of future performance because significant costs of a similar
    nature are not likely to recur within a reasonable period. We believe that
    we do not have other large inventory investments where the relationship of
    inventory to current sales volume creates significant exposure to
    valuation risk. During the second quarter of 2007, we recognized a $9.1
    million write-down of raw materials inventory and a $1.0 million write-off
    of a prepaid royalty license associated with Navigator(R) paste, a
    nitazoxanide product for the treatment of equine protozoal
    myeloencephalitis. We have written down these assets because the
    third-party contract manufacturer of finished goods recently gave
    notification that it will discontinue manufacturing the product in 2009.
    Additionally, product sales have been significantly lower than projected.
    Due in part to an estimated production volume which is low, we believe
    that we will not be able to enter into a replacement manufacturing
    arrangement on economically feasible terms and that we will not be able to
    obtain the product after termination of the existing manufacturing
    arrangement. We applied the statutory income tax rate of the applicable
    tax jurisdiction to calculate the after-tax impact of this discrete item.
    (2) We believe that the change from period to period due to specific
    acquisition-related purchase accounting and integration costs is not
    representative of ongoing operations and is not indicative of future
    performance. Specific acquisition-related discrete costs do not include
    amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets. We applied the
    statutory income tax rates of the applicable tax jurisdictions to
    calculate the after-tax impact of these discrete items.
    (3) The sum of the individual items may not equal the non-GAAP measurement
    due to rounding of the individual items in this presentation.

    Management believes adjusted diluted EPS is a useful non-GAAP financial
    measure to evaluate the results of ongoing operations, excluding
    significant specified events, period over period, and therefore believes
    that investors may find this information useful in addition to the GAAP
    results.
    We use these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the
    Company's comparative financial performance. The specified items that are
    excluded in these non-GAAP measures are actual charges that impact net
    income and cash flows, however, we believe that it is useful to evaluate
    our core business performance period over period excluding these specified
    items, in addition to relying upon GAAP financial measures.
    (1) We believe that the write-down of certain pharmaceutical assets is not
    indicative of future performance because significant costs of a similar
    nature are not likely to recur within a reasonable period. We believe that
    we do not have other large inventory investments where the relationship of
    inventory to current sales volumes creates significant exposure to
    valuation risk. During the second quarter of 2007, we recognized a $9.1
    million write-down of raw materials inventory and a $1.0 million write-off
    of a prepaid royalty license associated with Navigator(R) paste, a
    nitazoxanide product for the treatment of equine protozoal
    myeloencephalitis. We have written down these assets because the
    third-party contract manufacturer of finished goods recently gave
    notification that it will discontinue manufacturing the product in 2009.
    Additionally, product sales have been significantly lower than projected.
    Due in part to an estimated production volume which is low, we believe
    that we will not be able to enter into a replacement manufacturing
    arrangement on economically feasible terms and that we will not be able to
    obtain the product after termination of the existing manufacturing
    arrangement. We applied the statutory income tax rate of the applicable
    tax jurisdiction to calculate the after-tax impact of this discrete item.
    (2) We believe that the change from period to period due to specific
    acquisition-related purchase accounting and integration costs is not
    representative of ongoing operations and is not indicative of future
    performance. Specific acquisition-related discrete costs do not include
    amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets. We applied the
    statutory income tax rates of the applicable tax jurisdictions to
    calculate the after-tax impact of these discrete items.
    (3) We believe that certain significant discrete income tax items create
    impacts on financial measures that are not indicative of future
    performance because the items are not likely to recur within a reasonable
    period. For 2008, the separately identified discrete income tax benefit
    was due to a reduction in international deferred tax liabilities due to
    lower anticipated international tax rates.
    (4) The sum of the individual items may not equal the non-GAAP measurement
    due to rounding of the individual items in this presentation.

    Free cash flow indicates the cash generated from operations and tax
    benefits attributable to stock option exercises, reduced by investments in
    fixed assets. We feel free cash flow is a useful measure because it
    indicates the cash the operations of the business are generating after
    appropriate reinvestment for recurring investments in fixed assets that
    are required to operate the business.  We believe this is a common
    financial measure useful to further evaluate the results of operations.
