RESMED INC ANNOUNCES RECORD FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE

QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009

 

 

SAN DIEGO, California, February 4, 2010 - ResMed Inc. (NYSE: RMD) today announced record revenue and income results for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. Revenue for the December 2009 quarter was $275.1 million, a 23% increase (a 17% increase on a constant currency basis) over the quarter ended December 31, 2008. For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, income from operations was $57.9 million and net income was $46.0 million, an increase of 34% and 36%, respectively, compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 were $0.60, an increase of 36% compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008.

SG&A costs were $84.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $14.0 million or 20% (a 10% increase on a constant currency basis) over the quarter ended December 31, 2008. SG&A expenses were negatively impacted by the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against international currencies. The increase in SG&A was primarily due to expenses necessary to support sales growth. SG&A costs were 31% of revenue in the quarter ended December 31, 2009, consistent with 31% in the quarter ended December 31, 2008.

R&D expenses were $19.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, or approximately 7% of revenue. R&D expenses increased by 28% (a 1% increase on a constant currency basis) compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008. R&D expenses were negatively impacted by the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against international currencies, particularly the Australian dollar.

Amortization of acquired intangibles was $2.1 million ($1.4 million, net of tax) for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. Stock-based compensation costs incurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 of $7.3 million ($5.2 million, net of tax) consisted of expenses associated with stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and our employee stock purchase plan.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the company donated $1.0 million ($0.6 million, net of tax) to the ResMed Foundation. The Foundation’s primary mission is to promote research, as well as public and physician awareness of the importance of sleep and respiratory health throughout the world.

For the six months ended December 31, 2009, revenue was $522.1 million, an increase of 18% over the six months ended December 31, 2008. For the six months ended December 31, 2009, income from operations and net income were $110.6 million and $88.1 million, an increase of 38% and 42%, respectively, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2009 were $1.15 per diluted share, an increase of 44% compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008.

Inventory, at $182.9 million, increased by $25.4 million compared to June 30, 2009. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding, at 70 days, decreased by 4 days compared to June 30, 2009.

Kieran T. Gallahue, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we continued to show strong growth year over year. Our favorable mix of product sales and market share gains led to a 20% increase in the Americas over the prior year’s quarter, resulting in $148.0 million in revenue. Sales outside the Americas increased by 27% to $127.1 million over the prior year’s quarter, or a 14% increase on a constant currency basis. Cash flow from operations for the December quarter was $11.6 million. Operating cash flow was impacted by income tax payments totaling $61.7 million paid during the December quarter. Our robust revenue growth, recent product launches and exciting product pipeline continue to position us well for the future.

“As previously indicated, we are steadily introducing new products in what continues to be an exciting year for launching innovative treatment solutions for sleep-disordered breathing. This summer, we launched the ApneaLink™ Plus, our type 3 device for home sleep testing. More recently, we launched the Swift™ FX mask in Europe and the Mirage™ SoftGel mask in the Americas. These two new masks are receiving outstanding feedback from customers and patients as we continue their introduction ramp. In addition, we are proud to announce the release of our newest generation of flow generators – the ResMed S9 series. As is customary for ResMed, this initial introduction will be for the S9 AutoSet and S9 Elite products, expanding to other flow generators over time. We expect the launch will begin in both Europe and the Americas during the third quarter of this fiscal year. The S9 should deliver innovative and meaningful new features to the ResMed product family while providing an exciting new look and feel.


“We are also continuing to drive market expansion. We are taking steps to increase awareness of the health dangers of sleep-disordered breathing by sponsoring educational programs targeted at the primary care physician community. These efforts, driven both in concert with another industry participant and on our own, should further enlighten both doctors and patients about the relationship between sleep-disordered breathing/obstructive sleep apnea and co-morbidities such as cardiac disease, diabetes, hypertension and obesity. They should also support our efforts to inform the community of the dangers of sleep apnea with regard to occupational health and safety, especially in the transport industry.”
