Lantheus Holdings, Inc. Reports 2018 First Quarter Results
DEFINITY® worldwide revenues increase 18.4% year over year
NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., May 2, 2018 - Lantheus Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LNTH), parent company of Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc. (“LMI”), a global leader in the development, manufacture and commercialization of innovative diagnostic imaging agents and products, today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2018.
Management Comments
“Our first quarter provided an excellent start to the year, driven by robust sales for DEFINITY,” said Mary Anne Heino, President and CEO. “The first quarter also was marked by effective execution across a number of programs as we look to enhance the growth trajectory and profitability of our core microbubble franchise, augment our pipeline with focus on emerging technologies, and pursue complementary, external opportunities across the broader Life Sciences sector that fit with our objective to deliver long-term sustainable growth and profitability.”
“The application of microbubbles is emerging as a valuable platform for increased uses, including drug delivery and therapy. With the expertise we have built in microbubble technology, our goal is to lead in these growing markets. At the same time, clinical work regarding flurpiridaz F 18, a novel PET cardiac imaging agent for the evaluation of coronary artery disease, and LMI 1195, our fluorine-18-based PET agent which is expected to aid the diagnosis of heart failure patients at risk for sudden cardiac death, is proceeding on schedule. Internationally, our DEFINITY China program continues to move forward, with patient enrollment completed for the cardiac and pharmacokinetic studies, while enrollment in the kidney and liver studies is ongoing. We look to continue to execute successfully on our strategy and will report on our progress as we proceed through 2018,” continued Ms. Heino.
Financial Highlights
The Company’s worldwide revenues for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $82.6 million, representing an increase of 1.6% compared with $81.4 million for the first quarter of 2017. DEFINITY, the Company's flagship product and the world's leading echo contrast agent, had worldwide revenues of $44.7 million for the first quarter, an increase of 18.4% from the year-ago period.
Net income for the first quarter of 2018 totaled $8.2 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared with $4.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2017. The Company’s first quarter 2018 Adjusted EBITDA (as outlined in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided below) was $23.1 million, or 27.9% of revenues, compared with $22.7 million, or 27.8% of revenues, for the first quarter of 2017.
Outlook
For the second quarter of 2018, the Company expects worldwide revenues in the range of $85 million to $90 million. The Company expects Adjusted EBITDA, as described in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation provided later in this release, of $20 million to $23 million, representing 22.2% to 27.1% of anticipated worldwide revenues.
The Company maintains its guidance for full year 2018 worldwide revenues of approximately $337 million to $342 million, compared with $326.4 million in 2017 (which excludes a $5 million up-front payment received from GE Healthcare). The Company also maintains its guidance for full year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA of $85 million to $90 million, representing 24.9% to 26.7% of anticipated worldwide revenues.
The Company’s guidance for worldwide revenues and Adjusted EBITDA are forward-looking statements. They are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from guidance. Forward-looking statements are not predictions of the Company’s actual performance. See the cautionary information about forward-looking statements in the “Safe-Harbor Statement” section of this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency; adjusted operating income; adjusted net income and its line components; Adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net income per share - diluted; and free cash flow. The Company’s management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors. These measures may assist investors in evaluating the Company’s operations, period over period. The measures may exclude such items which may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have substantial impact on the Company’s reported results of operations for a period. Management uses these and other non-GAAP measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources and the evaluation of results relative to employee performance compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” as defined under U.S. federal securities laws, including statements about our 2018 outlook. Forward-looking statements may be identified by their use of terms such as anticipate, believe, confident, could, estimate, expect, intend, may, plan, predict, project, target, will and other similar terms. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to materially differ from those described in the forward- looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to materially differ from those described in the forward-looking statements are discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including those described in the Risk Factors section in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q). This press release includes forward-looking non-GAAP guidance for 2018 Adjusted EBITDA. No reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance was included in this press release because, due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the excluded information and the fact that some of the excluded information is not readily ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts.
