IDEXX Laboratories Announces Second Quarter Results

    WESTBROOK, Maine, July 25 /EMWNews/ -- IDEXX Laboratories,

Inc. (Nasdaq: IDXX), today reported that revenue for the second quarter of

2008 increased 18% to $280.6 million from $237.0 million for the second

quarter of 2007. Diluted earnings per share ("EPS") for the quarter ended

June 30, 2008 were $0.63, compared to $0.34 for the same period in the

prior year. Second quarter 2007 results included several discrete items

detailed in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliation table that reduced

reported EPS by $0.10. There were no adjustments to EPS related to discrete

items in the second quarter of 2008. Diluted EPS grew 43% when compared to

second quarter 2007 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.44.



    "Our results for both the second quarter and the first half of the year

demonstrate the consistency of our revenue and profit model. The economic

environment contributed to slightly slower organic revenue growth compared

to recent quarters after taking into account exceptional revenues from one

of our pharmaceutical products; however, we had strong earnings growth and

above plan operating margins," said Jonathan W. Ayers, Chairman and Chief

Executive Officer. "We continue to see solid revenue trends overall,

particularly in the companion animal veterinary market, and we have raised

our earnings per share guidance for the full year of 2008, even as we

remain somewhat cautious about the economic outlook."



    "We also continue to achieve milestones in the controlled launch of our

next generation point-of-care instrument systems, Catalyst Dx(TM) and

SNAPshot Dx(TM). We are gaining customer experience with the early

placements and, as part of the controlled launch process, are incorporating

refinements in the instruments' design and software, all while building a

backlog of orders for higher volume shipments in the second half of the

year."



    Revenue Performance



    Companion Animal Group ("CAG") revenue for the second quarter of 2008

increased 19% to $230.8 million from $194.0 million for the second quarter

of 2007. Acquisitions of reference laboratories contributed less than 1% to

CAG revenue growth and changes in foreign currency exchange rates

contributed an additional 4%. Growth for the quarter adjusted for

acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rates was 15%. The increase in

CAG revenue was due to increased sales volume across all lines of business,

most notably in our pharmaceuticals business where incremental sales of PZI

VET(R), our insulin product for the treatment of diabetic cats, contributed

an estimated $10 million, or 5%, to CAG revenue growth. In the second

quarter we announced that we would be discontinuing this product because

the raw material is no longer available, which resulted in the subsequent

sale of all of our remaining PZI VET(R) inventory.



    Water segment revenue for the second quarter of 2008 increased 18% to

$20.2 million from $17.1 million for the second quarter of 2007 as higher

sales volume offset lower average unit sales prices driven by changes in

regional sales mix. Higher sales volumes reflected the distribution of

water testing kits manufactured by Invitrogen Corporation under an

arrangement that commenced in September 2007, which contributed 8% to Water

revenue growth. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates also added 4% to

Water revenue growth.



    Production Animal Segment ("PAS") revenue for the second quarter of

2008 increased 15% to $21.5 million from $18.7 million for the second

quarter of 2007 as higher livestock diagnostics sales volume offset lower

average unit sales prices resulting from increased price competition.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates contributed 11% to PAS revenue

growth.



    Year-to-Date Results



    Year-to-date revenue increased 18% to $529.6 million from $448.2

million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Revenue for the six months

ended June 30, 2008, adjusted for the impacts of acquisitions and foreign

currency exchange rates, increased 12%.



    Year-to-date diluted EPS increased 61% to $1.06 from $0.66 for the six

months ended June 30, 2007. Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.04 grew 33% when

compared to 2007 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.78.



    Additional Operating Results for the Second Quarter



    Gross profit for the second quarter of 2008 increased $37.0 million, or

32%, to $151.3 million from $114.2 million for the second quarter of 2007.

Gross margin increased to 54% from 48%. Gross margin in the second quarter

of 2007 was depressed by the write-off of inventory and prepaid royalties

related to our Navigator pharmaceutical product.



    Research and development ("R&D") expense for the second quarter of 2008

was $18.3 million compared to $17.3 million for the second quarter of 2007.

As a percentage of revenue, R&D expense was 7% in both the second quarter

of 2007 and 2008. R&D expense growth reflected higher personnel costs due,

in part, to increased headcount and increased corporate research and

development resources dedicated to software for information management.

These increases were partly offset by a decrease in product development

spending related to our Catalyst Dx(TM) and SNAPshot Dx(TM) analyzers,

which were launched in the first quarter.



    Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense for the second

quarter of 2008 was $74.1 million, or 26% of revenue, compared to $64.4

million, or 27% of revenue, for the second quarter of 2007. Growth in SG&A

expense reflected increased headcount and worldwide expansion of sales,

marketing and customer support resources as well as the unfavorable impact

of exchange rates on foreign currency denominated expenses.



    Supplementary Analysis of Results



    The accompanying financial tables provide more information concerning

our revenue and other operating results for the three and six months ended

June 30, 2008, as well as a reconciliation of non-GAAP diluted EPS to

earnings per share.



    Outlook



    The Company offers the following revised guidance for the full year of

2008:



    -- Revenue is expected to be $1.06 billion to $1.07 billion, updated

from guidance of $1.06 billion to $1.075 billion provided in April of this

year, which represents revenue growth of 15% to 16%.



    -- Diluted EPS are expected to be $1.89 to $1.92, updated from guidance

of $1.84 to $1.87 provided in April of this year, which represents EPS

growth of 29% to 32%.



    -- Non-GAAP diluted EPS are expected to be $1.87 to $1.90, reflecting

growth of 18% to 20%. Non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes the impact of discrete

income tax benefits in 2008 and acquisition-related purchase accounting and

acquisition integration costs and the write-down of certain pharmaceutical

assets in 2007.

We use these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's comparative financial performance. The specified items that are excluded in these non-GAAP measures are actual charges that impact net income and cash flows, however, we believe that it is useful to evaluate our core business performance period over period excluding these specified items, in addition to relying upon GAAP financial measures. (1) We believe that the write-down of certain pharmaceutical assets is not indicative of future performance because significant costs of a similar nature are not likely to recur within a reasonable period. We believe that we do not have other large inventory investments where the relationship of inventory to current sales volume creates significant exposure to valuation risk. During the second quarter of 2007, we recognized a $9.1 million write-down of raw materials inventory and a $1.0 million write-off of a prepaid royalty license associated with Navigator(R) paste, a nitazoxanide product for the treatment of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis. We have written down these assets because the third-party contract manufacturer of finished goods recently gave notification that it will discontinue manufacturing the product in 2009. Additionally, product sales have been significantly lower than projected. Due in part to an estimated production volume which is low, we believe that we will not be able to enter into a replacement manufacturing arrangement on economically feasible terms and that we will not be able to obtain the product after termination of the existing manufacturing arrangement. We applied the statutory income tax rate of the applicable tax jurisdiction to calculate the after-tax impact of this discrete item. (2) We believe that the change from period to period due to specific acquisition-related purchase accounting and integration costs is not representative of ongoing operations and is not indicative of future performance. Specific acquisition-related discrete costs do not include amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets. We applied the statutory income tax rates of the applicable tax jurisdictions to calculate the after-tax impact of these discrete items.

(3) We believe that certain significant discrete income tax items create impacts on financial measures that are not indicative of future performance because the items are not likely to recur within a reasonable period. For 2008, the separately identified discrete income tax benefit was due to a reduction in international deferred tax liabilities due to lower anticipated international tax rates.
