SG&A expenses were $102.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $18.5 million, or 22% (a 13% increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2010. SG&A costs were 29.9% of revenue in the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to 28.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. SG&A expenses were negatively impacted by the appreciation of the Australian dollar and euro against the U.S. dollar.

R&D expenses were $27.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, or 7.9% of revenue. R&D expenses increased by 35% (an 11% increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2010. R&D expenses were primarily impacted by the appreciation of the Australian dollar and euro against the U.S. dollar.

The company amortized acquired intangibles of $2.9 million ($1.9 million, net of tax) during the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Stock-based compensation costs incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 of $7.5 million ($5.4 million, net of tax) consisted of expenses associated with stock options, restricted stock units, and our employee stock purchase plan.

For the year ended June 30, 2011, revenue was $1.2 billion, an increase of 14% over the year ended June 30, 2010 (a 13% increase on a constant currency basis). For the year ended June 30, 2011, net income was $227.0 million, an increase of 19% compared to the year ended June 30, 2010.  Diluted earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 2011 were $1.44, an increase of 17% compared to the year ended June 30, 2010.

Inventory, at $200.8 million, increased by $15.1 million compared to June 30, 2010. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding, at 69 days, decreased by 2 days compared to June 30, 2010.

Peter C. Farrell Ph.D., chairman and chief executive officer, commented, "In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 we continued to show strong year-over-year growth.  Revenue in Americas increased by 14% to $182.8 million over the prior year's quarter. Revenue outside Americas increased by 22% to $159.1 million over the prior year's quarter, or an 8% increase on a constant currency basis.  Operating profit for the June quarter was $66.7 million and cash flow from operations was a robust $74.3 million, demonstrating excellent operating performance."

The company also announced today the acquisition, on August 1st, of German-based Grundler GmbH, a developer of innovative medical humidification products.  These humidifiers can be used with a wide range of ventilators, from neonatal and pediatric, to non-invasive pressure support, to those used in the intensive care unit.  ResMed will retain Grundler's existing staff and facilities, and the business will become part of ResMed's newly-created Respiratory Care Strategic Business Unit.  The transaction is not expected to have a material impact on ResMed's financial results.    

Dr. Farrell continued, "We not only had a strong quarter and year, but we have been active in the last few months with small technology-focused acquisitions and partnerships that will further our strategy to reach deeper into the vastly underpenetrated market for sleep-disordered breathing, as well as serve existing patients.  In May, we informed you of our reorganization with the intention to be more aggressive in driving our key strategic initiatives and we have done just that.  With the BiancaMed acquisition in July of this year, we can provide an innovative, convenient, non-contact device to monitor sleep and breathing in the home and hospital, while increasing our focus on opportunities in chronic disease states related to sleep-disordered breathing, such as heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.   Our recently-announced partnership with CareFusion allows us to quickly establish a presence for Stellar 100 and 150 in the U.S. institutional healthcare market and creates an opportunity to enlarge our footprint in ventilation.   Our acquisition of Grundler expands that footprint even further by adding high-quality humidification technology and products.  We now have very competitive humidification solutions that provide superior therapy under a broad range of operating conditions.  Due to the strong correlation between sleep-disordered breathing and comorbidities, such as heart disease and diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, peri-operative death and occupational health and safety, we believe that there are significant opportunities to further penetrate the market; these recent acquisitions and partnership provide us with more options to achieve that goal."
