LITTLE FALLS, N.J., March 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CANTEL MEDICAL CORP. CMN reported US GAAP net income of $11,085,000, or $0.27 per diluted share, inclusive of $0.04 of acquisition related (non-amortization) charges on a 14% increase in sales to $135,430,000 for the second quarter ended January 31, 2015. This compares with net income of $11,126,000 or $0.27 per diluted share, on sales of $119,042,000 for the second quarter ended January 31, 2014. For the six months ended January 31, 2015, the Company reported US GAAP net income of $22,324,000, or $0.54 per diluted share, inclusive of $0.07 of acquisition related (non-amortization) charges on a 15% increase in sales to $272,241,000. This compares with net income of $22,311,000, or $0.54 per diluted share, on sales of $237,314,000 for the six months ended January 31, 2014.
Under non-GAAP measures as we began reporting last quarter, we saw an 18% increase in adjusted net income this quarter to a record $15,097,000, or $0.36 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income of $12,777,000, or $0.31 per diluted share for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended January 31, 2015, the Company reported a 14% increase in adjusted net income to a record $29,282,000, or $0.70 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income for the six months ended January 31, 2014 of $25,611,000, or $0.62 per diluted share.
Andrew Krakauer, Cantel's Chief Executive Officer stated, "We are pleased to have delivered solid sales and adjusted net income growth this quarter. We achieved good growth in operating income in our two largest segments - Endoscopy and Water Purification and Filtration. Our Healthcare Disposables business had basically flat performance due to the effect of pull ahead sales to our largest customers in this year's first quarter. All three business units have greatly benefitted from further investments in new product development, sales and marketing programs, and the integration of recent acquisitions. Overall, we had solid organic sales growth of 6.5%, while our total sales growth of 14% demonstrates the success of our acquisition program."
Krakauer added, "Our Medivators Endoscopy business achieved robust organic sales growth of 14% in the quarter. Sales in this segment grew 32% including our newly acquired PuriCore and IMS businesses, now called Cantel Medical UK and Cantel Medical Italy, respectively. All product categories in our core Medivators business were strong, including equipment, disinfectant chemicals, procedure room products, as well as service and spare parts. Our recently completed European acquisitions generated $1.8 million in acquisition related (non-amortization) expenses this quarter. When combined with our core United States endoscopy business, we see these acquisitions providing Cantel a strong platform, additional manufacturing capabilities and significant growth potential in European and other international markets.
Our Mar Cor Water Purification and Filtration segment showed organic sales growth of 3% (and 4% overall) against an unusually strong quarter in the same period last year. Growth this quarter was driven primarily on the strength of consumables and service growth, and the segment showed nice leverage with operating income growth of 14%. We were pleased to announce the acquisition of Pure Water Solutions, Inc. on January 2, 2015. This acquisition enhances our Water Purification and Filtration footprint through eight regional offices in the southeastern United States.
Sales in our Crosstex Healthcare Disposables business grew by 2% organically driven by sales of face masks. Revenue growth in this segment was hindered by the pull forward effect we reported last quarter of customers buying products in advance of an announced price increase during the first quarter. We were pleased to announce the acquisition of the DentaPure Dental Waterline Disinfection System on February 23, 2015. This product line will enhance our leadership position in infection prevention and control in the dental industry.
Overall, revenue growth in all operating units drove the improved operating earnings when excluding acquisition related charges."
The Company's balance sheet at January 31, 2015 included current assets of $177,961,000, including cash of $24,092,000, a current ratio of 2.9:1, gross debt of $95,500,000 and stockholders' equity of $380,357,000. Krakauer stated, "We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet and generate substantial cash flow and EBITDAS. When compared with the same quarter last year, our EBITDAS grew by 4% to $25,518,000. Our net debt position increased by $23 million to $71,408,000 during the first six months of fiscal 2015 despite borrowing over $37 million to fund acquisitions."

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION - RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In evaluating our operating performance, we supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") with certain internally driven non-GAAP financial measures, namely adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS") and income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense ("EBITDAS"). These non-GAAP financial measures are indicators of the Company's performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. They are presented with the intent of providing greater transparency to financial information used by us in our financial analysis and operational decision-making. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist investors, shareholders and other readers of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing the underlying performance of our results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be, and should not be, considered separately from, or as an alternative to, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Reconciliation of EBITDAS with Net Income
The Company believes EBITDAS is an important valuation measurement for management and investors given the increasing effect that non-cash charges, such as stock-based compensation, amortization related to acquisitions and depreciation of capital equipment, has on the Company's net income. In particular, acquisitions have historically resulted in significant increases in amortization of intangible assets that reduce the Company's net income. Additionally, the Company regards EBITDAS as a useful measure of operating performance and cash flow before the effect of interest expense and complements operating income, net income and other GAAP financial performance measures.
The reconciliations of EBITDAS with net income for the three and six months ended January 31, 2015 and 2014, | ||||||||
respectively, are as follows: |

Reconciliations of Net Income and Diluted EPS to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS
We define adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS as net income and diluted EPS, respectively, adjusted to exclude amortization, acquisition related items, significant reorganization and restructuring charges, major tax events and other significant items management deems atypical or non-operating in nature.
For the three and six months ended January 31, 2015, we made adjustments to net income and diluted EPS to exclude amortization expense and significant acquisition related items impacting current operating performance including transaction and integration charges and ongoing fair value adjustments to arrive at our non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS. For the three and six months ended January 31, 2014, we made adjustments to net income and diluted EPS to exclude amortization expense to arrive at our non-GAAP financial measures. Significant acquisition related items were not incurred for the three and six months ended January 31, 2014.
Amortization expense is a non-cash expense related to intangibles that were primarily the result of business acquisitions. Our history of acquiring businesses has resulted in significant increases in amortization of intangible assets that reduced the Company's net income. The removal of amortization from our overall operating performance helps in assessing our cash generated from operations including our return on invested capital, which we believe is an important analysis for measuring our ability to generate cash and invest in our continued growth.
Acquisition related items consist of (i) fair value adjustments to contingent consideration and other contingent liabilities resulting from acquisitions, (ii) due diligence, integration, legal fees and other transaction costs associated with specific acquisitions, (iii) acquisition accounting charges for the amortization of the initial fair value adjustments of acquired inventory and deferred revenue and (iv) foreign currency losses relating to the funding of an international acquisition. The adjustments of contingent consideration and other contingent liabilities are periodic adjustments to record such amounts at fair value at each balance sheet date. Given the subjective nature of the assumptions used in the determination of fair value calculations, fair value adjustments may potentially cause significant earnings volatility that are not representative of our operating results. Similarly, due diligence, integration, legal and other acquisition costs associated with specific acquisitions, including acquisition accounting charges relating to recording acquired inventory and deferred revenue at fair market value, can be significant and also adversely impact our effective tax rate as certain costs are often not tax-deductible. Since all of these acquisition related items are atypical and often mask underlying operating performance, we excluded these amounts for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and a comparison to past operating performance.
For the three months ended January 31, 2015 and 2014, the reconciliations of net income and | |||||||
diluted EPS with adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS were calculated as follows: | |||||||
