Anika Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Financial Results

Second quarter revenue growth up 4% X-Twist 510(k) clearance received; Limited market release on schedule for 2H 2022

BEDFORD, Mass., Aug. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Anika Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANIK), a global joint preservation company in early intervention orthopedics, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Summary

  • Revenue in the second quarter of 2022 was $39.7 million, up 4% compared with $38.1 million in the second quarter of 2021
    • OA Pain Management^1^ revenue of $25.7 million, up 6%
    • Joint Preservation and Restoration revenue of $12.1 million, up 2%
    • Non-Orthopedic^1^ revenue of $1.8 million, down 6%
  • Gross margin was 63%, including $1.6 million of non-cash acquisition-related expenses; Adjusted gross margin^2^ was 67%.
  • Net loss was ($2.8) million, or ($0.20) per share, compared to net income of $6.5 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, in the prior year. Prior year net income included a $9.8 million, or $0.67 per share, tax-effected benefit due to the change in fair value of contingent consideration.
  • Adjusted net loss^2^ was ($1.6) million, or ($0.12) per share, compared to adjusted net income^2^ of $1.4 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the prior year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA^2^ was $4.4 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA^2^ of $6.1 million in the prior year.
  • Operating cash flow was $3.1 million; cash balance was $91.4 million, with no outstanding debt

^1^ OA Pain Management was previously referred to as Joint Pain Management; Non-Orthopedic was previously referred to as Other. ^2^ See description of non-GAAP financial information contained in this release.

“Second quarter performance was solid as expected, and we are on track for achieving our stated full year guidance,” Cheryl R. Blanchard, Ph.D., Anika’s President and CEO, commented. “We are seeing continued momentum in our regenerative solutions portfolio, with Tactoset generating a lot of excitement, including recently receiving the ACE award for cutting-edge innovation from the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM). We are also very excited about the FDA 510(k) clearance we received for our X-Twist Fixation System which is ideal for key repairs in high-volume soft tissue sports medicine procedures. We are on track for a limited market release in the second half of this year, as our Joint Preservation and Restoration portfolio continues to take shape positioning us for accelerated growth in 2023 and beyond.”

Recent 2022 Business Highlights

  • X-Twist Fixation System received FDA 510(k) clearance. X-Twist provides a simple and versatile suture anchor system ideal for key repairs in the shoulder, foot and ankle, as well as other extremities.
  • Continued to ramp up medical education activities associated with Anika’s Joint Preservation and Restoration products, holding multiple in-person events in the U.S. since the beginning of the year with 270 surgeons trained on the safe and effective use of Anika’s products.
  • Completed last patient follow-up in the Cingal^®^ pilot study in June, with data readout expected in Fall 2022.
  • Tactoset^®^ Injectable Bone Substitute received the coveted ACE award for cutting-edge innovation from the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine in July 2022. The recognition from a prestigious sports medicine society such as AOSSM underscores the innovative and versatile nature of using Tactoset for the augmentation of hardware, such as suture anchors, in soft tissue repairs.

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

The Company continues to expect its overall revenue for fiscal year 2022 to be toward the upper end of its guidance range of low to mid-single digit percent growth compared with 2021. Revenue ranges by product family are:

  • Joint Preservation and Restoration up mid-single to low-double digit percent
  • OA Pain Management up low-single digit percent
  • Non-Orthopedic revenue down approximately 20% due largely to legacy product rationalization

There remains volatility and uncertainty in the global macroeconomic environment and the Company’s outlook for fiscal 2022 is subject to the changing dynamics associated with staffing shortages, supply chain disruption, inflation and other direct and indirect impacts of the COVID pandemic.

Conference Call Information

Anika’s management will hold a conference call and webcast to discuss its financial results and business highlights today, Wednesday August 3, 2022, at 5:00 pm ET. The conference call can be accessed by dialing 1-888-220-8474 (toll-free domestic) or 1-856-344-9221 (international) and providing the conference ID number 1507585. A live audio webcast will be available in the Investor Relations section of Anika’s website, www.anika.com. A slide presentation with highlights from the conference call will be available in the Investor Relations section of the Anika website. A replay of the webcast will be available on Anika’s website approximately two hours after the completion of the event.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, the Company’s reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, the Company’s definition of non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, Anika strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it uses them as supplemental measures in internally assessing the Company’s operating performance, and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, it is set as a key performance metric to determine executive compensation. The Company also recognizes that these non-GAAP measures are commonly used in determining business performance more broadly and believes that they are helpful to investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period.

Adjusted Gross Margin

Adjusted gross margin is defined by the Company as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenue. The Company defines adjusted gross profit as GAAP gross profit excluding amortization of certain acquired assets, the impact of inventory fair-value step up associated with our recent acquisitions and non-cash product rationalization charges.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as GAAP net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest and other income (expense), income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related expenses, non-cash charges related to goodwill impairment and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration associated with the Company’s recent acquisitions as a result of the COVID pandemic, and non-cash product rationalization charges.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined by the Company as GAAP net income excluding acquisition related expenses, inclusive of the impact of purchase accounting, on a tax effected basis, and the non-cash product rationalization charges. In the context of adjusted net income (loss), the impact of purchase accounting includes amortization of inventory step up and intangible assets recorded as part of purchase accounting for acquisition transactions. The amortized assets contribute to revenue generation, and the amortization of such assets will recur in future periods until such assets are fully amortized. These assets include the estimated fair value of certain identified assets acquired in acquisitions in 2020 and beyond, including in-process research and development, developed technology, customer relationships and acquired tradenames. As a result of COVID, the Company is also specifically excluding the impacts of goodwill impairment charges and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration associated with the acquisition transactions, each on a tax effected basis. Adjusted diluted EPS is defined by the Company as GAAP diluted EPS excluding acquisition related expenses and the impact of purchase accounting, each on a tax-adjusted per share basis, and non-cash product rationalization charges. Again, the Company is also specifically excluding the impacts of goodwill impairment charges and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration associated with recent acquisition transactions, each on a tax effected basis if applicable.

A reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to gross profit (and the associated adjusted gross margin calculation), adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) to net income (loss) and adjusted diluted EPS to diluted EPS, the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is shown in the tables at the end of this release.
