WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind., Aug. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. BASI ("BASi", the "Company", "We" or "Our") today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019.
Robert Leasure, Jr., BASi's President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "Our financial results for the third quarter met our expectations and we are pleased with our momentum. We saw revenue growth of 16% over the 2nd quarter of 2019 and overall revenue growth of 66.1% over the first nine months of 2018, including growth attributable to both the Seventh Wave acquisition and the Smithers Avanza acquisition. Even though the third fiscal quarter included over $200,000 in acquisition related cost, net income improved as compared to the second quarter. Our quoting activity and services backlog continue to grow as a result of the acquisitions and investments in sales and marketing. We are beginning to see the results we envisioned from our strategic initiatives and the extraordinary hard work across the company."
Mr. Leasure continued, "During this recent quarter, we completed the acquisition of Smithers Avanza's toxicology facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland, our second acquisition within one year. We have taken, and continue to anticipate taking, advantage of immediate capacity and further capitalizing on the assets and broadened scientific expertise acquired via the Smithers Avanza acquisition to reach additional clients. The Evansville new building expansion and facility improvements continue to move forward. We obtained funding to support our acquisitions and expansion, and other improvements to our facilities and equipment, to allow for continued growth and to enhance our scientific capabilities and client experiences. We continue to invest in further integrating our facilities to develop existing facilities and services into "Centers of Excellence" to distinguish our services in the industry, and will continue to evaluate additional opportunities for internal and external growth."
"Our team at BASi is very proud of what we have accomplished over the last year and we look forward to the future that we are building together," Mr. Leasure concluded.
Third Quarter Results
For the quarter, revenue amounted to $10,861,000, a 79.8% increase from $6,039,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. Revenue growth was mainly driven by the incremental sales associated with the Seventh Wave and Smithers Avanza acquisitions, plus increased organic sales in the Services segment.
Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 amounted to $426,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $75,000, or $0.01 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2018.
Net income and earnings per share were impacted by, among other factors, the mix of revenues, recruiting and relocation of management and scientific teams and growing the employee base, acquisition related costs, as well as higher sales and marketing expenses. The higher sales and marketing expenses are driven by our focus on promoting our combined brand and revenue growth.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 amounted to $772,000, compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 of $376,000.
Third Quarter Segment Results
Service revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 increased 99.1% to $9,689,000 compared to $4,866,000 for the same period in fiscal 2018. Nonclinical services revenues increased $4,521,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 due to additional revenues attributable to the Seventh Wave Laboratories acquisition of $2,845,000 and the Smithers Avanza acquisition of $1,421,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, as well as an overall increase in the number and mix of studies compared to the prior year period. Bioanalytical analysis revenues increased by $373,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2019, mainly due to additional revenues attributable to the Seventh Wave Laboratories acquisition. Other laboratory services revenues were negatively impacted by lower archive revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 versus the comparable period in fiscal 2018.
Cost of Service revenue as a percentage of Service revenue decreased to 72.3% during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from 75.7% in the comparable period in fiscal 2018. The principal cause of this decrease was the increase in the nonclinical service revenues that facilitated a higher absorption of fixed cost in the current quarter.
Sales in our Products segment remained essentially flat in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from $1,172,000 to $1,173,000 when compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Cost of Products revenue as a percentage of Products revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 decreased to 62.1% from 62.3% in the comparable prior-year period mainly due to the mix of products sold.
First Nine Months' Results
For the first nine months of fiscal 2019, revenue amounted to $28,830,000, a 66.1% increase from $17,360,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2018. Revenue growth was mainly driven by incremental sales associated with the Seventh Wave acquisition plus increased sales in both the Services and Products segments.
Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 amounted to $1,080,000, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6,000, or $0.00 per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal 2018.
Net income and earnings per share were impacted by, among other factors, the mix of revenues, recruiting and relocation of management and scientific teams and growing the employee base, acquisition related costs, as well as increased sales and marketing expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of fiscal 2019, amounted to $1,945,000, compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of fiscal 2018 of $1,345,000.
First Nine Months' Segment Results
Service revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 increased 77.2% to $25,555,000 compared to $14,421,000 for the same period in fiscal 2018. Nonclinical services revenues increased $9,485,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 due to additional revenues attributable to the Seventh Wave Laboratories and Smithers Avanza acquisitions of $7,736,000 and $1,421,000, respectively, as well as an overall increase in the number of studies compared to the prior year period. Bioanalytical analysis revenues increased by $1,687,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2019, mainly due to additional revenues attributable to the Seventh Wave Laboratories acquisition.
Cost of Service revenue as a percentage of Service revenue decreased to 72.6% during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 from 73.6% in the comparable period in fiscal 2018. The principal cause of this decrease was due to the mix of services provided in the first nine months of fiscal 2019.
Sales in our Products segment increased 11.4% in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 from $2,939,000 to $3,275,000 when compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The majority of the increase stems from higher sales of our Culex automated in vivo sampling systems and analytical instruments in the current period as compared to the prior year period.
Cost of Products revenue as a percentage of Products revenue in the first nine months of fiscal 2019 increased to 66.2% from 61.1% in the comparable prior-year period. This increase is mainly due to higher material costs and the mix of product sales during the first nine months of fiscal 2019.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $1,567,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 compared to $2,210,000 for the same period in fiscal 2018.

Acquisition
On May 1, 2019, the Company acquired from Smithers Avanza Toxicology Services LLC ("Seller"), a consulting-based contract research laboratory located in Gaithersburg, Maryland, substantially all of the assets used by the Seller in connection with the performance of in-vivo mammalian toxicology CRO services for pharmaceuticals (small molecules and biologics), vaccines, agro and industrial chemicals. The consideration for the acquisition consisted of $1,270,646 in cash, subject to certain adjustments, 200,000 of the Company's common shares and an unsecured promissory note in the initial principal amount of $810,000.

Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation
This press release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures are Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Adjusted EBITDA as reported herein refers to a financial performance measure that excludes from net income (loss) income statement line items interest expense and income taxes (benefit) expense, as well as non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, stock option (benefit) expense and non-recurring acquisition and integration costs.
The non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management, however, believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with GAAP, may provide a more complete understanding of the Company's results and may facilitate a fuller analysis of the Company's results, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another.
Management has chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts, and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of our results and to illustrate our results giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the reconciliation. Management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP measures used by the Company may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
