Operating cash flow of $90.9 million

SAN DIEGO, April 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ResMed Inc. (NYSE: RMD) today announced results for its quarter ended March 31, 2015.  Revenue for the quarter was $422.5 million, a 6 percent increase compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 (a 13 percent increase on a constant currency basis).  Net income was $91.0 million, an increase of 1 percent compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.64, an increase of 2 percent compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.65, a 2 percent increase compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

"We are pleased to report excellent progress with our new product launches, as we continued to see double-digit revenue growth," said Mick Farrell, ResMed's chief executive officer. "Strong demand for our new flow generator launches in the U.S. and continued growth in our Asia Pacific and Europe regions drove our results in the quarter.  

"We saw strong customer adoption of our range of new flow generators: the Astral, AirSense™ 10 and the recently launched AirCurve™ 10 series of cloud-connected bilevel devices.  This quarter, we continued to build our informatics capabilities with the acquisition of Jaysec, a provider of cloud-based software solutions for the home medical equipment industry, as well as the integration of our AirView patient management system with leading informatics partners." Farrell concluded, "We are executing on our long-term strategy: growing our core sleep disordered breathing market and investing in future opportunities in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as well as cardio-respiratory conditions. Our innovative products and solutions improve patient outcomes, lower healthcare costs, and reduce the impact of chronic disease."

Analysis of third quarter results
In the third quarter of fiscal year 2015, revenue in the Americas was $250.9 million, a 16 percent increase over the prior year's quarter.  Revenue in combined Europe and Asia Pacific was $171.6 million, a 6 percent decrease compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014 (a 9 percent increase on a constant currency basis).

Gross margin in the third quarter was 59.5 percent, lower than the prior year, mainly due to declines in average selling prices, an unfavorable product and geographic mix, and an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rate movements.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $116.3 million for the quarter, a 1 percent increase (a 10 percent increase on a constant currency basis) over the quarter ended March 31, 2014. SG&A expenses improved to 27.5 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared to 28.9 percent in the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  

Research and development expenses were $27.0 million for the quarter, or 6.4 percent of revenue.  R&D expenses decreased by 8 percent (a 4 percent increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Operating profit for the quarter was $105.9 million and cash flow from operations was $90.9 million.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $2.2 million ($1.6 million, net of tax) during the quarter.  Stock-based compensation costs incurred during the quarter of $11.7 million ($8.2 million, net of tax) consisted of expenses associated with employee equity grants, and the company's employee stock purchase plan.  

Share repurchase program
During the quarter, the company repurchased 300,000 shares at a cost of $20.3 million, as part of its ongoing capital management program. 

Dividend program
The ResMed board of directors today declared a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per share. The dividend will have a record date of May 21, 2015, payable on June 18, 2015. The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed's common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Holders of Chess Depositary Instruments trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will receive an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on the record date, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. The ex-dividend date will be May 19, 2015 for common stock holders and for CDI holders. ResMed has received a waiver from the ASX's settlement operating rules, which will allow ResMed to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from May 19, 2015 through May 21, 2015, inclusive.

(A) 

Management excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets from its evaluation of ongoing operations and believes investors benefit from excluding these charges to facilitate a more meaningful evaluation of current operating performance.




ResMed believes that presenting diluted earnings per share, excluding the impact of the amortization of acquired intangible assets is an additional measure of performance that investors can use to compare operating results between reporting periods.




Management uses non-GAAP information internally in planning, forecasting, and evaluating the results of operations in the current period and in comparing it to past periods. Management believes this information provides investors better insight in evaluating the Company's performance from core operations and provides consistency in financial reporting. Our use of non-GAAP measures is intended to supplement, and not to replace, our presentation of net income and other GAAP measures. Like all non-GAAP measures, non-GAAP earnings are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP.
