WARSAW, Ind., Aug. 07, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OrthoPediatrics Corp. ("OrthoPediatrics") KIDS, a company focused exclusively on advancing the field of pediatric orthopedics, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

Second Quarter & Recent Highlights

  • Increased total revenue to $18.2 million for second quarter 2019, up 20.7% from $15.1 million in second quarter 2018
  • Deployed $9.3 million of consignment sets during the second quarter 2019
  • Acquired Vilex, including its Orthex Hexapod circular fixation technology and proprietary CORA-based x-ray planning software, for $60.2 million
  • Increased domestic sales organization to 152 reps, including Orthex, up 22% from the second quarter 2018
  • Received FDA 510(k) clearance in July for two new Cannulated Screw Systems for treating younger patients with fractures and fusions
  • Received FDA 510(k) clearance in August for PediFoot, the first pediatric-specific to address the most common foot deformities in children
  • Updated full year revenue guidance from 21% to 23% growth to 23% to 25%, including Orthex

Mark Throdahl, President and Chief Executive Officer of OrthoPediatrics, commented, "I am very pleased with the momentum we are sustaining in the marketplace and by our record-setting revenues of $18.2 million, the highest achieved in any quarter, despite one less selling day, which had a 2% unfavorable impact. This 21% increase was driven by improved Trauma & Deformity growth, significant international growth despite very strong comparables, an increase in new surgeons using our scoliosis systems, and the initial impact of Orthex. Furthermore, with $9.3 million of deployed sets in the second quarter, we are on pace to achieve our full year set investment guidance of $15-$17 million. We will continue to benefit from these set investments as well as new products, the recent acquisition of Orthex, and our previously-announced partnership with CoorsTek, all which highlight our commitment to innovation and the expansion of our capabilities as we continue to scale the business."

Mr. Throdahl continued, "We are pleased with the initial integration of the Orthex acquisition and are encouraged by the number of unsolicited expressions of interest in purchasing the adult Vilex business, which we previously reported would be sold later this year. We look forward to growing contributions from Orthex as our sales representatives are trained on this unique product. Overall, we remain confident that this will prove to be another successful year of strong growth that will support our updated revenue guidance of 23-25%."

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2019 was $18.2 million, including Orthex, a 20.7% increase compared to $15.1 million for the same period last year.

Scoliosis revenue was $5.9 million, a 19.8% increase compared to $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2018.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2019 were $15.4 million, a 15.1% increase compared to $13.4 million for the same period last year. The increase in operating expenses was driven by a 19.5% increase in general and administration, a 12.2% increase in sales and marketing, and a 10.7% increase in R&D. Operating loss for the quarter improved to ($1.8) million from ($2.1) million for the same period last year.

Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2019 was $632 thousand, a 12.5% increase compared to $562 thousand for the same period last year.

Net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2019 was ($2.5) million, compared to ($2.7) million for the same period last year. Total net loss including discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2019 was ($2.6) million, or ($0.18) per basic and diluted share attributable to common stockholders compared to ($2.7) million, or ($0.21) per basic and diluted share for the same period last year.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2019 was $0.6 million as compared to ($0.9) million for the second quarter of 2018. The change was primarily driven by the increase in revenue and associated gross margin. See below for additional information and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information.

The weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019 was 14,451,979 shares.

In the second quarter of 2019, we had 152 sales representatives, including Orthex, up 21.6% compared to 125 in same period 2018.

Purchases of property and equipment during the second quarter of 2019 were $3.6 million, which compared to $1.4 million for the same period last year. This investment reflects the deployment of consigned sets, which includes product specific instruments and cases and trays. Including the implants, $9.3 million of consigned sets were deployed during the second quarter of 2019 compared to $2.8 million during the second quarter of 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, cash and cash equivalents were $21.9 million, compared to $52.8 million as of March 31, 2019, and the Company had approximately $51.2 million in total outstanding indebtedness, with no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "believe," "estimate," "project," "target," "predict," "intend," "future," "goals," "potential," "objective," "would" and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond OrthoPediatrics' control. Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, among others, the risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under "Risk Factors" in OrthoPediatrics' Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 7, 2019. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. OrthoPediatrics assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, subsequent events, or circumstances or other changes affecting such statements except to the extent required by applicable securities laws.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA, which differs from financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA in this release represents net loss, plus interest expense (income), net plus other expense (income), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, accelerated vesting of restricted stock upon our IPO, and acquisition related costs. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because the Company believes it is a useful indicator of its operating performance. Management uses the metric as a measure of the Company's operating performance and for planning purposes, including financial projections. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors as supplemental information because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in its industry. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to its management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to, or superior to, net income or loss as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and it should not be construed to imply that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as debt service requirements, capital expenditures and other cash costs that may recur in the future. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and other potential cash requirements. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. The Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on the Company's GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. The Company's definition of this measure is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation. The schedules below contain a reconciliation of Net Loss to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA.
