- Company Reports GAAP EPS of $0.28
- Product Sales Establish New Quarterly Record of $83.5 Million,
Up 21% From Prior Year
- Total Revenues Also Increase 21%, to a New Quarterly
Record of $92.2 Million
SAN DIEGO, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gen-Probe Incorporated
(Nasdaq: GPRO) today reported strong financial results for the third quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 2006, including new quarterly records for
product sales and total revenues.
On a GAAP basis, net income for the third quarter of 2006 was
$15.1 million ($0.28 per share), compared to net income of $16.4 million
($0.31 per share) in the prior year period. GAAP earnings in the third
quarter of 2006 include expenses related to share-based compensation under
SFAS No. 123(R), which reduced after-tax earnings by $4.0 million ($0.08 per
share). Adjusting only for these expenses, net income for the third quarter
of 2006 was $19.2 million ($0.36 per share) on a non-GAAP basis, an increase
of 16% per share compared to the prior year period.
Throughout this press release, all per share amounts are calculated on a
fully diluted basis, and no adjustments have been made to GAAP results except
those related to implementing SFAS No. 123(R). Gen-Probe believes these
non-GAAP financial measures help investors compare current results to those in
prior periods. See the section below entitled "About Non-GAAP Financial
Measures."
Product sales for the third quarter of 2006 were a record $83.5 million,
compared to $68.9 million in the prior year period, an increase of 21%. Total
revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were a record $92.2 million, compared
to $76.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of 21%.
On a GAAP basis, net income for the first nine months of 2006 was
$43.3 million ($0.82 per share), compared to net income of $43.3 million
($0.83 per share), in the prior year period. GAAP earnings in the first nine
months of 2006 include expenses related to share-based compensation under SFAS
No. 123(R), which reduced after-tax earnings by $10.4 million ($0.19 per
share). On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the first nine months of 2006 was
$53.7 million ($1.01 per share), an increase of 22% per share compared to the
prior year period.
Product sales in the first nine months of 2006 were $239.8 million,
compared to $193.7 million in the prior year period, an increase of 24%.
Total revenues in the first nine months of 2006 were $263.7 million, compared
to $218.0 million in the prior year period, an increase of 21%.
"Gen-Probe once again posted strong financial results in the third quarter
of 2006, as both clinical diagnostics and blood screening sales grew by more
than 20% compared to the prior year," said Henry L. Nordhoff, the Company's
chairman, president and chief executive officer. "In addition, we secured
several new product approvals that we believe will solidify our market
leadership positions and generate future growth."
Detailed Results
Gen-Probe's clinical diagnostics sales in the third quarter of 2006 were
led by the APTIMA Combo 2(R) assay, an amplified nucleic acid test (NAT) for
simultaneously detecting Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae
(GC). Sales of this assay continued to grow strongly, driven by market share
gains on both the semi-automated instrument platform and on the
high-throughput, fully automated TIGRIS(R) system. Revenue from the PACE(R)
product line, the Company's non-amplified tests for the same microorganisms,
declined in the third quarter compared to the prior year period, in line with
Gen-Probe's expectations.
In blood screening, product sales benefited primarily from continued
international expansion, and from higher pricing associated with commercial
sales of the PROCLEIX(R) WNV (West Nile virus) assay in the United States.
Gen-Probe's blood screening products are marketed worldwide by Chiron, a
business unit of Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics. Sales of TIGRIS(R)
instruments and spare parts to Chiron totaled $2.0 million in the third
quarter, compared to $3.5 million in the prior year period, a decrease that
was in line with Gen-Probe's expectations.
Product sales were, in millions:
Three Months Ended Sept. 30, Nine Months Ended Sept. 30,
2006 2005 Increase 2006 2005 Increase
Clinical
diagnostics $43.3 $36.0 20% $125.8 $104.3 21%
Blood screening $40.2 $32.9 22% $114.0 $89.4 28%
Total product
sales $83.5 $68.9 21% $239.8 $193.7 24%
Collaborative research revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were
$1.5 million, compared to $6.3 million in the prior year period. For the
first nine months of 2006, collaborative research revenues were $14.7 million,
compared to $19.4 million in the prior year period. In both the third quarter
and first nine months of 2006, collaborative research revenues decreased
primarily due to the elimination of "cost recovery" revenue that Gen-Probe had
been receiving for investigational use of the PROCLEIX WNV assay. In the
third quarter of 2006, the Company began recording in product sales all
revenues associated with the PROCLEIX WNV assay, which was approved for use on
Gen-Probe's enhanced semi-automated instrument system (eSAS) in December of
2005.
Royalty and license revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were
$7.3 million, compared to $1.0 million in the prior year period. For the
first nine months of 2006, royalty and license revenues were $9.2 million,
compared to $5.0 million in the prior year period. In both the third quarter
and first nine months of 2006, royalty and license revenues increased
primarily due to $5.0 million of revenue associated with the settlement of
Gen-Probe's patent infringement lawsuits against Bayer. In addition,
Gen-Probe earned $1.0 million of license revenue in the third quarter of 2006
under the Company's 2004 agreement with Tosoh. This payment was contingent
upon a favorable outcome for Gen-Probe in its legal disputes with Bayer.
On a GAAP basis, gross margin on product sales was 71.5% in the third
quarter of 2006, compared to 69.0% in the prior year period. The increase in
gross margin percentage resulted primarily from higher pricing associated with
commercial sales of the PROCLEIX WNV assay in the United States, and from
lower sales of TIGRIS instruments and spare parts for blood screening to
Chiron. Under Gen-Probe's contract with Chiron, these sales are made
approximately at cost. These improvements in gross margin percentage were
partially offset by SFAS No. 123(R), which added $0.7 million to cost of goods
sold. The amount of share-based compensation expense included in cost of
goods sold is expected to increase in the fourth quarter of 2006 as the
related inventory is sold. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin on product sales
was 72.4% in the third quarter of 2006.
On a GAAP basis, gross margin on product sales was 68.8% for the first
nine months of 2006, compared to 70.4% in the prior year period. This
decrease resulted primarily from SFAS No. 123(R), which added $1.4 million to
cost of goods sold, from additional scrap expense incurred in the second
quarter of 2006, and from low-margin sales of TIGRIS instruments and spare
parts for blood screening to Chiron. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin on
product sales was 69.4% in the first nine months of 2006.
On a GAAP basis, research and development (R&D) expenses were
$24.2 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $17.5 million in the
prior year period, an increase of 38%. This increase resulted primarily from
SFAS No. 123(R), which added $2.0 million to R&D expenses, and from the timing
of the Company's development program for human papillomavirus (HPV). On a
non-GAAP basis, R&D expenses were $22.2 million in the third quarter of 2006,
an increase of 27% compared to the prior year period.
On a GAAP basis, R&D expenses for the first nine months of 2006 were
$63.8 million, compared to $53.6 million in the prior year period, an increase
of 19%. This increase resulted primarily from the factors described above,
including SFAS No. 123(R), which added $5.7 million to R&D expenses. On a
non-GAAP basis, R&D expenses were $58.1 million in the first nine months of
2006, an increase of 8% compared to the prior year period.
On a GAAP basis, marketing and sales expenses were $9.5 million in the
third quarter of 2006, compared to $7.6 million in the prior year period, an
increase of 25%. This increase resulted primarily from SFAS No. 123(R), which
added $0.9 million to marketing and sales expenses, from higher commissions
associated with increased sales of clinical diagnostics products, and from
increased headcount. On a non-GAAP basis, marketing and sales expenses were
$8.7 million in the third quarter of 2006, an increase of 14% compared to the
prior year period.
On a GAAP basis, marketing and sales expenses were $27.5 million for the
first nine months of 2006, compared to $22.4 million in the prior year period,
an increase of 23%. This increase resulted primarily from SFAS No. 123(R),
which added $2.3 million to marketing and sales expenses, and from the other
factors described above. On a non-GAAP basis, marketing and sales expenses
were $25.2 million in the first nine months of 2006, an increase of 13%
compared to the prior year period.
On a GAAP basis, general and administrative (G&A) expenses were
$12.7 million in the third quarter of 2006, compared to $7.8 million in the
prior year period, an increase of 63%. This increase resulted primarily from
$2.0 million of incremental legal expenses that Gen-Probe paid its outside
litigation counsel in connection with the Company's settlement of its disputes
with Bayer, and from SFAS No. 123(R), which added $2.7 million to G&A
expenses. On a non-GAAP basis, G&A expenses were $10.0 million in the third
quarter of 2006, an increase of 28% compared to the prior year period.
On a GAAP basis, G&A expenses for the first nine months of 2006 were
$34.1 million, compared to $22.8 million in the prior year period, an increase
of 50%. This increase resulted primarily from SFAS No. 123(R), which added
$6.8 million to G&A expenses, and from the additional legal expenses described
above. On a non-GAAP basis, G&A expenses were $27.3 million in the first nine
months of 2006, an increase of 20% compared to the prior year period.
Gen-Probe continues to have a strong balance sheet. As of September 30,
2006, the Company had $271.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, and no debt. In the first nine months of 2006, Gen-Probe
generated net cash of $72.0 million from its operating activities, including
$33.8 million in the third quarter of 2006.
Updated 2006 Financial Guidance
"Based on our strong performance in the third quarter, we are increasing
our full-year 2006 revenue guidance and raising the low end of our EPS
guidance," said Herm Rosenman, the Company's vice president of finance and
chief financial officer.
Gen-Probe's non-GAAP 2006 guidance for gross margins, R&D expenses,
marketing and sales expenses, G&A expenses, effective income tax rate and EPS
is computed without the effect of SFAS No. 123(R) and is reconciled to the
corresponding GAAP measure in the bullets and table below and discussed in the
section titled "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
The following table describes Gen-Probe's updated guidance for the full
year 2006, on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. The percentages shown are of
total revenues.
GAAP Estimated Effects of Non-GAAP
Guidance SFAS No. 123(R) (a) Guidance
Total Revenues $349 - $352 million None $349 - $352 million
Product Gross
Margin Approx. 69% Less than 1% 69% to 70%
R&D Expenses 24% to 25% Approx. 2% 22% to 23%

Diluted EPS $1.09 to $1.12 $0.27 to $0.28 $1.37 to $1.39
(a) These estimated effects reconcile the Company's 2006 GAAP financial
guidance ranges to the Company's non-GAAP financial guidance ranges.
The reconciling item represents the estimated impact of SFAS
No. 123(R), which includes non-cash stock compensation awards,
including stock options and employee stock purchase plan shares.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Gen-Probe's financial results for the third quarter and
first nine months of 2006 and its 2006 financial guidance, in each case
presented in accordance with GAAP, Gen-Probe uses the following financial
measures defined as non-GAAP by the SEC: non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP product
gross margin, non-GAAP R&D expenses, non-GAAP marketing and sales expenses,
non-GAAP G&A expenses, non-GAAP effective income tax rate, and non-GAAP
diluted EPS. Gen-Probe's management does not itself, nor does it suggest that
investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from,
or as a substitute for, financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with GAAP. Gen-Probe's management believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the
Company's performance by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative
of core business results. Gen-Probe believes that both management and
investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in
assessing Gen-Probe's performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing
future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate
management's internal comparisons to Gen-Probe's historical performance and
our competitors' operating results. Gen-Probe believes these non-GAAP
financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater
transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in
its financial and operational decision making.
Recent Events
* FDA License for PROCLEIX ULTRIO Assay. On October 4, Gen-Probe
announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had granted
marketing approval for the PROCLEIX ULTRIO assay to run on the eSAS.
The assay was approved to screen donated blood, plasma, organs and
tissue for HIV-1 and hepatitis C virus (HCV) in individual blood
donations or in pools of up to 16 blood samples, and to detect the
presence of hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, the initial pivotal study
for the assay was not designed to, and did not, demonstrate yield,
defined as HBV-infected blood donations that are negative based on
serology tests. Based on discussions with the FDA, Gen-Probe and Chiron
plan to initiate a post-marketing study in early 2007 to demonstrate HBV
yield and gain a donor-screening claim for HBV.
* Response to TIGRIS/WNV Questions. On September 20, Gen-Probe announced
that it had submitted responses to the FDA's questions on the Company's
regulatory application to run the previously approved PROCLEIX WNV assay
on the investigational TIGRIS system.
* APTIMA(R) Qualitative Viral Assays. On October 5, Gen-Probe announced
that the FDA had granted marketing approval for the APTIMA HIV-1 RNA
qualitative assay. The assay may be used as an aid in the diagnosis of
acute and primary HIV-1 infection, and to confirm HIV-1 infection in an
individual whose specimen is repeatedly reactive (positive) for HIV-1
antibodies. The assay is the first FDA-approved qualitative nucleic
acid test for these intended uses. Gen-Probe expects to launch the
assay this month in conjunction with the APTIMA HCV RNA qualitative
assay.
* Additional TIGRIS Menu. On October 18, Gen-Probe announced that the FDA
had granted marketing clearance to run the Company's standalone APTIMA
assays for CT and GC on the TIGRIS system. And on August 22, the
Company announced that the FDA had granted marketing clearance to use
the APTIMA Combo 2 assay to test two additional kinds of patient samples
on the TIGRIS system. These samples are liquid Pap specimens collected
in the PreservCyt(R) solution and processed with Cytyc's ThinPrep(R)
2000 system, and clinician- and patient-collected vaginal swab
specimens.
* New TIGRIS Patent. On October 16, Gen-Probe announced that it had been
issued U.S. Patent No. 7,118,892, which extends the Company's
intellectual property estate relating to integrated instrument systems
for nucleic acid testing.
* Stronger Corporate Governance Practices. On October 2, Gen-Probe
announced that as part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen its
corporate governance practices, the Company's board of directors had
approved the termination of its shareholder rights plan, or "poison
pill," and instituted a stock ownership policy for officers and
directors.
