RTI BIOLOGICS ANNOUNCES 2011 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

– Company Will Hold Conference Call at 8:30 a.m. ET –

ALACHUA, Fla. (April 28, 2011) – RTI Biologics Inc. (RTI) (Nasdaq: RTIX), a leading provider of orthopedic and other biologic implants, reported operating results for the first quarter of 2011 as follows:

Quarterly Highlights:

 

   

Achieved quarterly revenues of $40.6 million, exceeding the company’s guidance of $38-39 million.

 

   

Achieved quarterly net income of $1.2 million, or $0.02 per fully diluted share, in line with the company’s guidance.

 

   

Achieved quarterly revenues of $11.7 million in the sports medicine business, a 13 percent increase over the first quarter of 2010.

 

   

Achieved international revenue growth of 13 percent.

 

   

Launched new version of the BTB Select and fresh stored distal tibia implants.

 

   

Signed agreement to provide spinal allograft implants to Alphatec Spine Inc.

“We are pleased with our first quarter results, which exceeded our expectations and were driven primarily by continued growth in our surgical specialties and direct sports medicine businesses,” said Brian K. Hutchison, chairman and CEO of RTI. “Revenues in the spine business were up slightly on a sequential quarter basis; however, it is still too early to determine if market pressures are abating. The decrease in reported dental revenues is the result of the change in terms of our distributor agreement, which was announced in the third quarter of 2010. If the new terms with our distributor had been effective in the first quarter of 2010, dental revenues would have increased by 4 percent.”


Worldwide revenues of $40.6 million for the first quarter of 2011 increased 8 percent compared to the first quarter of 2010. Domestic revenues of $35.2 million for the first quarter of 2011 increased 7 percent on the strength of the spine, surgical specialties and the direct sports medicine businesses. The domestic spine and surgical specialties businesses both benefited from a favorable quarterly comparison as a result of inventory reductions made by several of our distributors in the first quarter of 2010. International revenues of $5.4 million increased 13 percent, or 14 percent on a constant currency basis, primarily due to growth in export of sports medicine and bone graft substitutes/general orthopedics, as well as growth in international dental revenues.

For the first quarter of 2011, the company reported net income of $1.2 million and net income per fully diluted share of $0.02, based on 55 million fully diluted shares outstanding, compared to net loss of $54,000 or break even per fully diluted share for the first quarter of 2010, based on 54.6 million fully diluted shares outstanding.

Fiscal 2011 and Second Quarter Outlook

As stated in RTI’s February 2011 release, the company expects full year revenues for 2011 to be between $159 million and $162 million. Full year earnings per fully diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.11 to $0.13, based on 55.4 million fully diluted shares outstanding.

For the second quarter of 2011, the company expects revenues to be between $40 million and $41 million, and earnings per fully diluted share to be approximately $0.03.

“We had a good start to the year with solid results for the first quarter of 2011,” Hutchison said. “We are maintaining our annual guidance as we anticipate having to continue to balance effective use of incoming tissue, seasonality of surgeries and overall market pressures on our distributors.”

Conference Call

RTI will host a conference call and simultaneous audio webcast to discuss the first quarter 2011 results at 8:30 a.m. ET today. The conference call can be accessed by dialing (877) 383-7419. The webcast can be accessed through the investor section of RTI’s website at www.rtix.com. A replay of the webcast will be available on the RTI website following the call.
