DANBURY, Conn. & RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Quintiles IMS Holdings, Inc. Q today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 for Quintiles Transnational Holdings, Inc. on a standalone basis, the last quarter prior to its merger with IMS Health Holdings, Inc. on October 3, 2016, with QuintilesIMS continuing as the surviving corporation. While the separate corporate existence of IMS Health ceased following the merger, as did its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission, today the company also provides financial results for IMS Health on a standalone basis for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Quintiles Transnational Holdings Inc. Results

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Quintiles' service revenues were $1.14 billion, up 3.9 percent, or $43 million, versus last year. At constant currency, Quintiles' service revenues grew 3.6 percent, with 8.6 percent growth in the Product Development segment and a decline of 10.6 percent in the Integrated Healthcare Services segment.

Reported GAAP income from operations was $168 million in the third quarter, an increase of 0.4 percent compared with the prior year, and adjusted income from operations was $199 million, up 11.2 percent compared with last year. Income from operations margin was 14.8 percent, 50 basis points below last year, and the adjusted income from operations margin was 17.5 percent, 110 basis points higher compared with last year, including 70 basis points of benefit from currency fluctuations.

Reported GAAP net income attributable to Quintiles was $99 million in the third quarter of 2016, down 10.9 percent compared with the same period last year, and adjusted net income was $121 million, 2.5 percent higher than last year. Reported GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.82 for the third quarter, down 7.9 percent compared with the same period last year and negatively affected by impairment and merger-related charges. Diluted adjusted earnings per share was $1.00, 6.4 percent higher than the prior year.

Beginning with the third quarter of 2016, we are now reporting net new business and backlog on an as-contracted basis for Product Development only, with net new business reported on a rolling basis for the last twelve months. Previously, net new business included non-binding written awards, which was consistent with industry practice. Net new business totaled $4.4 billion for the 12 months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $4.0 billion in the prior year. Ending Product Development contracted backlog was $9.4 billion at September 30, 2016, and we expect approximately $2.7 billion of this backlog to convert to revenue in the next 12 months.

Product Development's service revenues of $874 million grew 8.6 percent at constant currency and 7.9 percent at actual foreign exchange rates during the third quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year. Product Development's income from operations margin was 23.7 percent for the third quarter, 130 basis points improved versus the same period last year, including 70 basis points of benefit from currency fluctuations.

Integrated Healthcare Services' service revenues of $262 million declined 10.6 percent on a constant currency basis and 7.5 percent at actual foreign exchange rates. The constant currency revenue decline resulted from a decrease in commercial services, partially offset by growth in real-world and late phase research services. Integrated Healthcare Services' income from operations margin was 8.7 percent for the third quarter, up 20 basis points compared with the same period last year.

General corporate and unallocated expenses were $31 million during the quarter, compared with $26 million for the same period last year. In the third quarter, Quintiles recognized $4 million of expenses related to the merger with IMS Health. Interest expense was $25 million during the quarter and $25 million for the same period last year.

The GAAP effective income tax rate was 27.1 percent for the third quarter of 2016, compared with 28.0 percent for the same period in 2015.

During the third quarter of 2016, Quintiles recognized $28 million of impairment losses in its Encore reporting unit.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Quintiles' constant currency service revenue of $3.4 billion grew 6.6 percent at constant currency, including constant currency growth of 11.4 percent for Product Development and 6.7 percent reported, compared with the same period in 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, reported GAAP income from operations was $497 million, up 6.1 percent compared with the same period in 2015, and adjusted income from operations was $566 million, 14.9 percent higher than the same period in 2015. Income from operations margin was 14.6 percent, down 10 basis points, and the adjusted income from operations margin was 16.6 percent, up 120 basis points versus last year, including 120 basis points of benefit from currency fluctuations. Reported GAAP net income was $293 million for the third quarter, 3.5 percent higher than the same period in 2015, and Adjusted Net Income was $341 million, representing growth of 11.0 percent compared with the same period in 2015. Reported GAAP diluted earnings per share was $2.41 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, representing growth of 7.6 percent compared with the same period last year, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $2.81, representing growth of 15.6 percent compared with the same period last year. Reconciliations of the Quintiles standalone non-GAAP measures are attached to this press release.

IMS Health Holdings, Inc. Results

Revenue for the third quarter of $791 million increased 7.5 percent on a reported basis and 6.8 percent on a constant currency basis, compared with the third quarter of 2015.

Technology services revenue grew 13.0 percent in the third quarter on a reported basis and 12.9 percent on a constant currency basis versus the same quarter last year. Information offerings revenue was up 2.1 percent reported and 0.9 percent on a constant currency basis.

Adjusted EBITDA of $238 million improved 9.0 percent on a reported basis and 5.0 percent on a constant currency basis, compared with the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margins were negatively affected by the impact of recent lower margin acquisitions and product mix, partially offset by the positive impact of continuing cost reductions.

Third-quarter 2016 net income was $54 million compared with $43 million in last year's third quarter. Adjusted Net Income for the third quarter was $132 million, up 2.2 percent on a reported basis and up 4.7 percent on a constant currency basis.

Diluted earnings per share was $0.16 in the third quarter, compared with $0.13 per share in the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $0.39, up one cent compared to the third quarter of 2015. Reconciliations of the IMS Health standalone non-GAAP measures are attached to this press release.

Revenue of $2,367 million for the first nine months of 2016 increased 12.2 percent reported and 12.8 percent on a constant currency basis, compared with the first nine months of 2015. Excluding the first quarter impact of the Cegedim acquisition, which closed on April 1, 2015, revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was up 7.9 percent on a constant currency basis.

Adjusted EBITDA of $712 million increased 8.8 percent on a reported basis and 7.0 percent on a constant currency basis, compared with the first nine months of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA margins were negatively affected by the impact of recent lower margin acquisitions and faster growth in lower margin technology services' offerings, partially offset by the positive impact of ongoing cost reductions. Net income for the first nine months was $121 million, compared with net income of $388 million last year. Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, IMS Health has asserted that its non-U.S. earnings would be indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S., with IMS Health no longer accruing taxes on those foreign earnings at the higher U.S. tax rate. This resulted in a $256 million non-cash income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2015 from a one-time reduction in the deferred tax liability. Adjusted Net Income, which excludes this one-time, non-cash tax benefit, increased to $411 million in this year's first nine months, up 5.3 percent on a reported basis and 8.8 percent at constant currency.

Diluted earnings per share was $0.36 in the first nine months of 2016, compared with $1.14 per share in the prior-year period. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $1.22 in the first nine months of this year, up 6.8 percent on a reported basis and 10.4 percent on a constant currency basis.

"IMS Health delivered another consistent quarter of strong financial performance, and Quintiles delivered solid earnings with superior revenue growth in Product Development," said Ari Bousbib, QuintilesIMS chairman and chief executive officer. "Our recent debt offerings have provided us with a strong balance sheet and we are pleased that our board has authorized a new $1.5 billion share repurchase program. As we execute on our integration plans, we have visibility to additional cost reduction opportunities and are doubling cost synergies from $100 million to $200 million annualized savings exiting 2019."

QuintilesIMS Additional Merger Details and Fourth-Quarter 2016 Financial Guidance

On November 1, 2016, the QuintilesIMS board of directors approved a share repurchase authorization of $1.5 billion for repurchase of QuintilesIMS's outstanding common stock. The repurchases are expected to be completed by the end of 2017. The share repurchase authorization does not obligate QuintilesIMS to acquire any particular amount of common stock, has no end date, and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

QuintilesIMS announced the formation of three new reporting segments: Commercial Solutions, Research & Development Solutions and Integrated Engagement Services. The Commercial Solutions segment includes substantially all of the IMS legacy businesses plus the Quintiles legacy Real World Late Phase, Payer/Provider and Advisory businesses. The Research & Development Solutions segment includes substantially all of the Quintiles legacy Product Development segment. The Integrated Engagement Services segment includes substantially all of the Quintiles legacy Contract Sales Organization businesses.

QuintilesIMS announced new non-GAAP financial measures that the combined company will use starting in this year's fourth quarter. Definitions of these measures are included in the attached tables. For the fourth quarter of 2016, QuintilesIMS provides the following guidance:

($ millions, except per share data)   4th Quarter 2016
Segment Revenue Guidance:    
Commercial Solutions $885 - $900
Research & Development Solutions $875 - $895
Integrated Engagement Services

$190 - $195

QuintilesIMS Revenue $1,950 - $1,990
 
Adjusted EBITDA1,2 $500 - $515
 
Adjusted Diluted EPS1,2 $1.04 - $1.08
 
Adjusted Book Tax Rate3 30% - 32%
Adjusted Cash Tax Rate3     11% - 13%
 

1. The company does not provide forward-looking guidance for certain financial measures on a GAAP basis because it is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures. Such items include, but are not limited to, merger and transaction related expenses, restructuring and related charges, share-based compensation and other items not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.

2. See Table 9 in the schedules for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted EPS.

3. Adjusted Book Tax Rate is defined as adjusted book tax divided by adjusted pre-tax income, Adjusted Cash Tax Rate is defined as cash taxes divided by adjusted pre-tax income.

 

QuintilesIMS revenue guidance includes an estimate for a non-cash accounting adjustment in connection with the merger that is expected to reduce the Commercial Solutions segment and QuintilesIMS fourth-quarter 2016 revenue by approximately $60 million. Under purchase accounting rules, a portion of IMS's deferred revenue, which would have otherwise been converted into revenue in future periods, must be eliminated. This estimate is subject to change upon completion of purchase accounting.

QuintilesIMS fourth-quarter 2016 revenue guidance also takes into account a $20 million reduction in revenue due to changes in foreign exchange rates since IMS and Quintiles provided or implied standalone fourth-quarter 2016 guidance on their respective earnings calls on July 27, 2016. This financial guidance assumes current foreign currency exchange rates remain in effect for the remainder of the year. The combined company's revenue guidance excludes revenue from reimbursed expenses.

Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP results, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from operations, adjusted income from operations margin, adjusted net income and diluted adjusted EPS, are presented only as a supplement to the company's financial statements based on GAAP. Non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance understanding of the company's financial performance, but none of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP, and non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached to this release. The company uses non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a more reliable indicator of the underlying operating performance of the business. As a result, internal management reports feature non-GAAP measures which are also used to prepare strategic plans and annual budgets and review management compensation. The company also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures.

Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to the company, many of which present non-GAAP measures when reporting their results. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool. They are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or liquidity and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period determined in accordance with GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, you should not consider such performance measures in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, the company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
