Integra LifeSciences Reports Second Quarter 2007 Financial Results

PLAINSBORO, N.J., Aug 7, 2007 (PrimeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) --

Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation (Nasdaq:IART) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2007. Total revenues in the second quarter of 2007 were $134.8 million, reflecting an increase of $34.6 million, or 35%, over the second quarter of 2006. Revenues from products acquired since March 31, 2006 were $26.8 million for the second quarter of 2007, compared to $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2006.

The company reported GAAP net income of $9.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2007, compared to GAAP net income of $8.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2006.

"We achieved strong revenue growth in the second quarter from increased sales of our existing product lines and acquired products," said Stuart M. Essig, Integra's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Both the Integra Extremity Reconstruction and Integra NeuroSciences selling organizations demonstrated continued progress in new product development with the launching of four new products for extremities reconstruction and the continued positive reception of the Integra Mozaik(TM) Osteoconductive Scaffold through our Integra NeuroSciences sales force and our 20-person orthopedic spine sales organization."

As announced previously in conjunction with the formation of the Integra Medical Instruments selling organization and the acquisitions of LXU Healthcare and Physician Industries, Integra initiated a restructuring. "We believe that these acquisitions and the combination of our instrument selling organizations under a single management team will drive continued increases in revenue growth and profitability," said Mr. Essig.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2007 was $16.9 million, a 28% increase over the prior year period.

Integra generated approximately $6 million in cash flows from operations in the second quarter of 2007, a decrease of approximately 60% compared to the year ago period. The decrease in operating cash flows is primarily related to investments in inventory to support the scale up of our extremity reconstruction sales organization and from the start up of CUSA Excel(TM) product manufacturing operations at our new manufacturing plant in Ireland.

In addition to GAAP results, Integra reports adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share. A further discussion of these non-GAAP financial measures can be found below, and reconciliations of GAAP net income to adjusted net income and GAAP diluted earnings per share to adjusted diluted earnings per share for the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 appear in the financial statements attached to this release. Integra's adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share for these periods are not adjusted for share-based compensation expense associated with FAS 123R.

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2007, computed with the adjustments to GAAP reporting set forth in the attached reconciliation, was $12.4 million, or $0.41 per diluted share. In the second quarter of 2006, adjusted net income was $11.0 million, or $0.35 per diluted share.

Integra LifeSciences presents its revenues in two categories: a) Neurosurgical and Orthopedic Implants and b) Medical Surgical Equipment.

The company's revenues for the periods were as follows:


                                                     Three Months
                                                     Ended June 30,
                                                   2007         2006
                                                 --------     --------
 Revenue: ($ in thousands)
 Medical Surgical Equipment and other            $ 85,359     $ 61,225
 Neurosurgical and Orthopedic Implants             49,408       38,896
                                                 --------     --------
   Total Revenue                                 $134,767     $100,121

Once again, sales of our DuraGen(R) family of products, extremity reconstruction implants and bone growth products led revenue growth in the Neurosurgical and Orthopedic Implants category. Nerve and tendon repair products, the Newdeal(R) family of products and private label products all experienced strong year over year growth in the quarter. Sales of product lines acquired subsequent to the first quarter of 2006 contributed $2.3 million to the increase in neurosurgical and orthopedic implant sales.

In the Medical Surgical Equipment category, the majority of the increase in revenue was due to acquired products. Internally generated growth was led by the Radionics(TM) and Jarit(R) product lines, both of which posted double digit year over year growth. Sales of product lines acquired subsequent to the first quarter of 2006 contributed $24.5 million of product revenues during the second quarter of 2007 and $8.6 million in revenue during the second quarter of 2006.

Gross margin on total revenues in the second quarter of 2007 was 61%. Cost of goods sold included inventory fair value purchase accounting charges from the LXU Healthcare and Physician Industries acquisitions, impairment charges associated with the write-off of certain long-term assets, including the unamortized license fee associated with the recalled Endura(TM) product and certain technology-based intangible assets, and charges related to the start up of CUSA Excel(TM) ultrasonic aspirator manufacturing operations. Together, these charges adversely affected the gross margin by more than 2 percentage points.

Research and development expense decreased $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2007 to $6.2 million. Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2006 included a $1.6 million charge related to the discontinuation of an ultrasonic aspirator-related development project. In 2007, Integra has increased spending on its biomaterials product development programs.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $17.8 million to $55.0 million in the second quarter of 2007, or 41% of revenue, compared to $37.2 million, or 37% of revenue, in the second quarter of 2006. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense over the prior year was due primarily to substantial increases in the size of our selling organizations, particularly for spine and extremity reconstruction, and higher expenses for corporate staff and consulting. As we gain more leverage from our larger selling organizations, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to decrease to between 38% and 40% of revenue over the remainder of 2007 and into 2008.

Intangible asset amortization expense increased $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2007 to $3.8 million. During the quarter, the Company recorded $1.7 million of impairments to intangible assets, of which $0.9 million was related to technology-based intangible assets and recorded in cost of product revenues and the remaining $0.8 million relates to other intangible assets and was recorded in intangible asset amortization. Of this other amount, $0.7 million related to a tradename that was discontinued following the acquisition of Physician Industries. The remaining impairment charges relate to certain events and management decisions made during the quarter.

We reported a $1.2 million increase in net interest expense to $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2007, primarily from increased borrowings under our credit facility. The credit facility was paid down following the successful completion of our sale of $330 million of convertible notes in June 2007.

We reported an effective income tax rate of 36%, which included approximately $0.7 million of taxes incurred in connection with the Company's restructuring of its European entities. We expect our effective income tax rate for the full year 2007 to be 34%.

During the quarter, we raised $330 million through the private sale of $165 million aggregate principal amount of senior convertible notes due 2010 (the "2010 notes") and $165 million aggregate principal amount of senior convertible notes due 2012 (the "2012 notes" and, together with the 2010 notes, the "notes"). The notes are senior, unsecured obligations of Integra, and will pay interest semi-annually at the rates of 2.75%, in the case of the 2010 notes, and 2.375%, in the case of the 2012 notes. Subject to certain designated events and other conditions, the notes will be convertible into cash and shares of Integra's common stock or, at Integra's irrevocable election, shares of Integra's common stock, at an initial conversion rate of 15.0917 shares per $1,000 principal amount of 2010 notes and 15.3935 shares per $1,000 principal amount of 2012 notes. This represents an initial conversion price of approximately $66.26 per share for the 2010 notes and approximately $64.96 per share for the 2012 notes.

In connection with the offering, the Company entered into note hedge and warrant transactions to increase the effective conversion price of the 2010 notes to approximately $77.96 and the effective conversion price of the 2012 notes to approximately $90.95, and to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's earnings per share upon future conversion of the notes.

Concurrently with the closing of this private offering, Integra repurchased approximately 1.4 million shares of its common stock for $75 million in private transactions. As of June 30, 2007, there remained $25.7 million available for repurchases under our existing share repurchase authorization, which will expire on December 31, 2007.

At June 30, 2007, our cash totaled $120.8 million and we have no outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. In March 2008, our $120 million contingent convertible subordinated notes will mature.

We are updating our guidance for the full year 2007 and 2008. We are also providing guidance for each quarterly period for the next twelve months. Our estimates assume foreign currency exchange rates remain unchanged throughout 2007 and 2008.

In accordance with our usual practice, our expectations for 2007 and 2008 financial performance do not include the impact of acquisitions or strategic corporate transactions that have not yet closed.

We estimate that we will incur approximately $1.1 million of inventory purchase accounting charges and $0.5 million of acquisition and integration related costs during the balance of 2007 related to the integration of previously completed transactions. In the future we may record, or expect to record, certain additional revenues, gains, expenses or charges (such as acquisition-related charges, facility consolidation, manufacturing transfer and system integration charges, and certain employee termination and related costs) that we will exclude in the calculation of adjusted earnings per share for historical periods and in providing adjusted earnings per share guidance.

Our quarterly and full-year revenue and GAAP and adjusted earnings per share expectations are as follows:

 First Quarter 2008        $142 - $147   $0.44 - $0.49    same as GAAP

 2007                      $545 - $553   $1.53 - $1.63   $1.70 - $1.80

 2008                      $600 - $620   $2.10 - $2.25    same as GAAP

On a quarterly basis, we expect to incur approximately $3.8 million, or $0.08 per share, of share-based compensation expense associated with FAS 123R in 2007 and 2008. This non-cash compensation expense is included in both the GAAP and adjusted earnings per share guidance for 2007 and 2008 provided above.

Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from predicted or expected results. Among other things, our ability to maintain relationships with customers of acquired entities, physicians' willingness to adopt our recently launched and planned products, third-party payors' willingness to provide reimbursement for these products, initiatives launched by our competitors, our ability to secure regulatory approval for products in development and our ability to comply with recently enacted regulations regarding products containing materials derived from animal sources may adversely affect our future product revenues; our ability to integrate acquired businesses and to leverage our existing selling organizations and administrative infrastructure my affect our future selling, general and administrative expenses, the timing of and our ability to integrate acquired businesses, increase product sales and gross margins, and control non-product costs may affect our net income and earnings per share; the amount and timing of acquisition and integration related costs; and the timing and amount of share-based awards granted to employees may affect the amount of non-cash compensation expense associated with FAS 123R. In addition, the economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors identified under the heading "Risk Factors" included in Item 1A of Integra's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and information contained in subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission could affect actual results.

Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures

Adjusted net income consists of net income excluding (i) acquisition-related charges, (ii) facility consolidation, manufacturing transfer and system integration charges, (iii) certain employee termination and related costs, (iv) charges associated with discontinued or withdrawn product lines, (v) intangible assets impairment charges, (vi) charges related to restructuring our legal entities in Europe, and (vii) the income tax expense/benefit related to these adjustments and the cumulative impact of changes in income tax rates. Adjusted earnings per diluted share are calculated by dividing adjusted net income for diluted earnings per share by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Integra believes that the presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share provides 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.Integra-LS.com.

 (a) 2007 - $957 recorded in cost of product revenues, $674 recorded
     in intangible asset amortization; 2006 - $2,149 recorded in cost
     of product revenues, $1,578 recorded in research and development

 (b) 2007 and 2006 - all recorded in cost of product revenues

 (c) 2007 - all recorded in selling general and administrative (amount
     represents change in estimate for previously accrued severance
     amounts); 2006 - $140 recorded in cost of product revenues, $68
     recorded in selling, general and administrative

 (d) 2006 - all recorded in cost of product revenues

 (e) 2007 - all recorded in selling, general and administrative

 (f) 2007 - all recorded in selling, general and administrative

 (g) 2007 - $848 recorded in cost of product revenues, $166 recorded
     in intangible asset amortization

 (h) Amount is reduced by the benefit from eliminating a $709 tax
     charge incurred in connection with the European legal entity
     restructuring and is increased by the elimination of a $161
     favorable tax benefit from a tax rate reduction in a certain
     jurisdiction. The remaining amount reflects the estimated
     additional tax (expense)/benefit that the Company would record
     if it used non-GAAP results instead of GAAP results in the
     calculation of its tax provision, based on the statutory rate
     applicable to jurisdictions in which the above non-GAAP
     adjustments relate.
