Management Comment

Exactech CEO and President David Petty said, “Another solid performance in our largest segment, Extremities, and third quarter improvement in our Biologic and Spine segment and gains in overall U.S. sales were not enough to offset strong international currency headwinds and soft results in European and Latin American markets. Worldwide sales for the first nine months of 2015 decreased 3% to $179.1 million but were flat on a constant currency basis. U.S. sales were relatively flat at $123.3 million compared with $123.8 million in the first nine months a year ago. International sales decreased 9% in the first nine months

to $55.8 million and were up 1% on a constant currency basis. For the third quarter of 2015, U.S. sales were up 2% to $40.7 million compared with $40.0 million in the third quarter a year ago. International sales decreased 13% to $15.5 million. On a constant currency basis, international sales were down 4% and worldwide sales were flat for the third quarter. U.S. sales represented 72% of total sales and international sales were 28% of the total,” Petty said.

Chief Financial Officer Jody Phillips said, “Gross margins decreased to 70.5% for the third quarter of 2015 vs. 70.7% in the third quarter of 2014 due to pricing and currency impacts. Total operating expenses for the quarter decreased 1% to $35.1 million and as a percentage of sales were 62%, compared to $35.4 million and 61% for the same quarter of 2014. General and administrative expenses decreased 4% in the third quarter to $5.2 million and sales and marketing expenses decreased 3% to $20.6 million primarily due to currency impacts. We experienced an 18% increase in R&D spending to $5.3 million related to development and launch costs associated with our new revision products. We continued to produce positive cash flows, which resulted in a $2.9 million improvement in our cash and net debt position during the third quarter.”

Looking forward, Exactech confirmed its updated 2015 revenue guidance to $239-$241 million and updated its diluted EPS target to $1.02-$1.04. The resulting revenue guidance for the fourth quarter of 2015 is for revenues of $60-$62 million and a diluted EPS target of $0.27-$0.29. The foregoing statements regarding targets for the full year are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. These are the company’s targets, not predictions of actual performance.
