Press Release
Bio-Rad Reports Third-Quarter Currency-Neutral Revenue
Growth of 9.1 Percent
HERCULES, Calif.-November 1, 2016-Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. (NYSE: BIO and BIOb), a global provider of life science research and clinical diagnostic products, announced financial results today for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.
Third-quarter reported revenues were $508.7 million, an increase of 8.3 percent compared to $470.0 million reported for the third quarter of 2015. On a currency-neutral basis, quarterly revenues increased 9.1 percent compared to the same period last year. Third-quarter gross margin was 54.9 percent compared to 56.1 percent during the same quarter in 2015. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin during the third quarter of 2016 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to product mix and increased instrument placements, as well as higher manufacturing and service costs.
Net income for the third quarter was $18.4 million, or $0.62 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $17.4 million, or $0.59 per share during the same period last year. Net income for the third quarter of 2016 reflects several items that increased SG&A expenses including costs associated with the continued implementation of our global ERP system and various legal matters. Research & development (R&D) expenses also increased during the third of quarter 2016 compared to the same period last year. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2016 was 19 percent, compared to the tax rate of 32 percent during the same period last year. The lower tax rate in 2016 was primarily due to adjustments related to U.S. federal taxes.
Year-to-date revenues were $1.50 billion, an increase of 3.3 percent compared to $1.45 billion reported in the first three quarters of 2015. Adjusting for the impact of currency, year-to-date revenue growth for the first nine months of 2016 was 5.2 percent.
Year-to-date net income for the first three quarters of 2016 was $48.7 million, or $1.65 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $63.6 million, or $2.17 per share reported during the same period in 2015. The year-over-year decrease in net income was primarily the result of lower margins, an increase in SG&A expenses including $9.5 million in restructuring costs coordinated with the implementation of our global ERP system, $10.1 million in costs associated with various legal matters, and an increase in R&D expense.

“We are pleased with a strong sales performance in the third quarter, in particular, our life science business, with nearly 20 percent currency-neutral growth,” said Norman Schwartz, Bio‑Rad President and Chief Executive Officer. “Continued investments in our operations have affected profitability for the first nine months of the year, but these investments are necessary to support our growth.”
Life Science
The Life Science segment net sales for the third quarter were $178.1 million, an increase of 18.4 percent compared to the same period last year. On a currency-neutral basis, the Life Science segment sales were up 19.3 percent compared to the third quarter of 2015. Results from the third quarter benefitted from increased sales of Droplet Digital™ PCR and process media products. Sales for the Life Science segment reflected growth across all regions. During the quarter Bio-Rad announced the launch of two residual DNA quantification (RDQ) kits designed for use with the Company’s Droplet Digital™ PCR Systems. The kits simplify the quantification of host-cell DNA (HCD) in process development, quality control, and biomanufacturing processes.
Clinical Diagnostics
Reported net sales for the Clinical Diagnostics segment in the third quarter were $327.1 million, an increase of 3.5 percent compared to the third quarter in 2015. On a currency-neutral basis, the Clinical Diagnostics segment sales increased 4.4 percent. Results from the second quarter reflected significant growth across several product lines, most notably clinical immunology, diabetes, and quality controls. Sales growth in North America and Asia Pacific was partially offset by markets in Western Europe and Japan. In August, the Company introduced Amplichek™ I quality control, one in a series of infectious disease controls that Bio-Rad has introduced for the molecular diagnostic testing market this year.
Management will discuss these results in a conference call at 2 PM Pacific Time (5 PM Eastern Time) November 1, 2016.
