Patterson Companies, Inc. PDCO today reported consolidated sales from continuing operations of $1.1 billion (see attached Sales Summary for further details) in its fiscal first quarter ended August 1, 2015, up 22 percent over the same period last year. Sales in the fiscal 2016 period reflect a contribution from recently acquired Animal Health International, Inc. and an extra week of results versus the prior year.
Adjusted net income from continuing operations1, which reflects the adjustments to exclude certain non-recurring costs and amortization of deal costs, was $46.9 million for the first quarter of 2016, a 17 percent increase over $40.2 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations1 was $0.47 in the 2016 first quarter, an 18 percent year-over-year increase. The company reported GAAP net income from continuing operations of $20.3 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to $38.3 million, or $0.38 per share, in last year's fiscal first quarter.
"The past several months have been a particularly exciting time for Patterson Companies as we move forward with our efforts to transform the long-term growth profile of our business," said Scott Anderson, chairman and chief executive officer. "During the quarter, we began the process of unifying Animal Health International with our legacy veterinary operations and moved forward with the sale of non-core Patterson Medical. Our performance was in line with our internal plan and we remain confident in both the market opportunities we face and our ability to capitalize on them."
Patterson Dental
Sales for Patterson Dental, which accounts
for approximately 50 percent of total sales, rose to $575.1 million, up
2.2 percent on a constant currency basis and excluding the extra week,
from the same quarter last year. Also, on that same basis, sales by
category versus the prior-year quarter were as follows:
- Consumable dental supplies were up 3.8 percent
- Technology sales, led by CEREC, increased overall; however, dental equipment and software declined 1.9 percent. The extra week had little impact on equipment sales due to factors such as the time from order to installation, which can span several months
- Other services and products, consisting primarily of technical service, parts and labor, software support services and office supplies, climbed 3.5 percent
Commented Anderson, "During the quarter, we saw sustained growth in the consumables category, which reinforces our confidence in stable-to-steadily improving dynamics in the dental market. We are also encouraged by the rise in CEREC sales during the quarter, especially among new users. Further, we invested in sales training during the period related to new core-equipment offerings and we expect these efforts to pay off in quarters ahead. Patterson Dental is well-positioned as we move into fiscal 2016."
Patterson Animal Health
Sales for Patterson Animal Health,
which comprises approximately 49 percent of sales, totaled $557.3
million, up 48 percent on a constant currency basis. Sales from recently
acquired Animal Health International contributed $171.9 million during
the quarter. Excluding the acquisition, segment sales were up over 3
percent on a constant currency basis, with U.S. consumables up roughly 5
percent organically, partially offset by a milder flea and tick season
in the U.K., which resulted in a tough comparison to last year.
Anderson continued, "Patterson Animal Health demonstrated solid organic growth in the U.S., with stability in companion-animal consumables. Animal Health International's contributions to the segment were in line with our expectations. This acquisition doubles the size of our animal health business. It broadens our capabilities to include the production animal market and will strengthen our scale and market position. Finally, it provides significant opportunities for synergies."
Discontinued Operations
On July 1, 2015, Patterson Companies
announced a definitive agreement to sell Patterson Medical to Madison
Dearborn Partners for gross proceeds of approximately $715 million in
cash. The sale is expected to close in the fiscal second quarter,
following the satisfaction of regulatory requirements and other
customary closing conditions.
As a result of the definitive agreement, results of Patterson Medical are classified and reported as discontinued operations in all periods beginning with the fiscal 2016 first quarter. During the fiscal 2016 first quarter, sales from discontinued operations totaled $130.8 million and earnings per share totaled $0.10, which includes transaction-related costs.
Cash Repatriation
Patterson Companies is repatriating
approximately $200 million in foreign cash from both the Patterson
Medical group and Patterson Dental Canada. Performing all of these
repatriations within the same fiscal year will allow Patterson Companies
to gain income tax efficiencies in the range of $15 million to $20
million. The full tax impact of the repatriation has been recorded in
the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and was approximately $12 million.
Dividends
In the fiscal 2016 first quarter, the company paid
$23.1 million in cash dividends to shareholders. Currently, the company
is allowed to repurchase approximately 21 million shares.
Business Outlook
Anderson concluded, "The transformation of
Patterson Companies into a company focused on two synergistic businesses
– dental and animal health – is off to a solid start. As we move into
the new fiscal year, we are executing on the array of growth
opportunities before us and gaining efficiencies from the acquisition of
Animal Health International, all while sustaining our commitment to
industry-leading customer service. We are updating our adjusted fiscal
2016 earnings guidance to a continuing-operations basis. Excluding the
contribution from the discontinued Medical business, Patterson's prior
adjusted guidance range – on a continued-operations basis – would have
been $1.98 to $2.06 per share. With the June closing of the Animal
Health International transaction, the company will include 10.5 months
of results from these operations during fiscal 2016. This increases the
adjusted earnings guidance range on a continuing operations basis to
$2.40 to $2.50 per diluted share."
The fiscal 2016 annual financial outlook and adjusted earnings guidance:
- Assumes stable North American and international markets – conditions similar to fiscal 2015
- Includes the impact of an extra week in fiscal 2016 compared to the previous year
- Excludes transaction-related costs, integration expense and deal amortization, non-recurring IT initiative training costs and cash repatriation (See First Quarter Reconciliation table below)
- Excludes the discontinued operations for Medical
