CHICAGO, July 27, 2018
CHICAGO, July 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HRC), today announced financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2018, and reaffirmed its fiscal 2018 full-year outlook.
For the fiscal third quarter, Hill-Rom reported earnings of $0.67 per diluted share compared to $0.09 per diluted share in the prior-year period. On an adjusted basis, excluding special items, earnings of $1.15 per diluted share rose 26 percent from $0.91 per diluted share in the prior-year period, exceeding the company's previously-issued guidance of $1.12 to $1.14 per diluted share. Adjustments to reported earnings are detailed in the reconciliation schedules provided.
"Since joining Hill-Rom in May, I have immersed myself in the business, thoroughly reviewing the company and its global operations and engaging with our employees, business leaders, customers and partners," said John P. Groetelaars, Hill-Rom's president and chief executive officer. "It's clear to me that Hill-Rom has a solid foundation and compelling growth prospects, as reflected in our strong fiscal third quarter financial results. I am confident in Hill-Rom's future as we enter the next phase of our transformation with the momentum to drive growth through innovation and business development initiatives, and create long-term value for patients, customers and shareholders."
Fiscal Third Quarter Financial Results
In the fiscal third quarter, Hill-Rom's worldwide revenue of $709 million increased 3 percent compared to the fiscal third quarter of last year, or 1 percent on a constant currency basis. Domestic revenue of $494 million advanced 5 percent, while revenue outside the U.S. of $215 million declined 2 percent, or 7 percent on a constant currency basis.
Hill-Rom's core revenue accelerated by 4 percent on a constant currency basis, as the company capitalized on several new product introductions from across the portfolio. Core revenue excludes foreign currency, divestitures and non-strategic assets the company plans to exit.
By reporting segment:
Gross margin of 49.1 percent expanded 110 basis points compared to the prior year, and operating margin improved 520 basis points to 11.1 percent. On an adjusted basis, gross margin expanded by 80 basis points to 49.1 percent and operating margin improved by 120 basis points to 17.3 percent. Adjustments to gross margin and operating margin are detailed in the reconciliation schedules provided.
Year-to-date, operating cash flow of $250 million increased 4 percent versus the prior-year period, and the company returned $46 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.
Recent Highlights
Complementing the company's financial performance were several recent achievements aimed at delivering sustainable value through innovation and strategic investments. Highlights include:
Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2018 Financial Outlook
Hill-Rom provided its fiscal fourth quarter financial outlook and reaffirmed its full-year guidance. For the fiscal fourth quarter 2018, Hill-Rom expects revenue to increase approximately 2 percent on both a reported and constant currency basis, and core revenue to increase 3 to 4 percent. Hill-Rom expects adjusted earnings, excluding special items, of $1.50 to $1.53 per diluted share.
For full-year 2018, Hill-Rom continues to expect revenue to increase 3 to 4 percent on a reported basis and 2 to 3 percent on a constant currency basis. The company continues to expect core revenue to increase approximately 3 percent. Core revenue excludes foreign currency, divestitures, non-strategic assets the company plans to exit, and Mortara revenue prior to the anniversary date of the acquisition. Hill-Rom now expects adjusted earnings, excluding special items, of $4.62 to $4.65 per diluted share, compared to its prior guidance of $4.60 to $4.65 per diluted share, and approximately $350 million in operating cash flow.
Discussion of Adjusted Financial Measures
In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP, Hill-Rom routinely provides gross margin, operating margin, income tax expense, and earnings per diluted share results on an adjusted basis because the company's management believes these measures contribute to an understanding of our financial performance and provide additional analytical tools to understand our results from core operations and reveal underlying operating trends. These measures exclude strategic developments, acquisition and integration costs, special charges, the one-time impact of the new U.S. tax reform legislation, and other unusual events. The company also excludes expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets associated with prior business acquisitions. These adjustments are made to allow investors to evaluate and understand operating trends excluding the non-cash impact of acquired intangible amortization on operating income and earnings per diluted share.
Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the business. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP measures to adjusted measures appear in the financial tables of this release.
The company also routinely provides earnings per diluted share guidance on an adjusted basis. This excludes the impact of intangible asset amortization associated with prior business acquisitions, which we expect to be $1.15 to $1.20 per diluted share for the fiscal year, and the one-time impact of new U.S. tax reform legislation we expect to record during fiscal 2018. Management also does not include adjusted items such as strategic developments, acquisition and integration costs, special charges, and other unusual items in our guidance because such items are evaluated on an ongoing basis, can be highly variable and cannot be reasonably predicted. As such, prospective quantification of these items is not feasible and a full reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings per diluted share guidance to GAAP earnings per diluted share has not been provided. However, as a result of significant recent acquisitions, our ongoing footprint and portfolio optimization, and the new U.S. tax reform legislation, we do expect adjusted items we have not predicted to potentially be significant to our GAAP measures including gross margin, operating margin, income tax expense and earnings per diluted share.
The company also presents certain results on a constant currency basis, which compares results between periods as if foreign currency exchange rates had remained consistent period-over-period. Management monitors sales performance on an adjusted basis that eliminates the positive or negative effects that result from translating international sales into U.S. dollars. Management calculates constant currency by applying the foreign currency exchange rate for the prior period to the local currency results for the current period.
