Use of
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present non-GAAP
financial measures in the press release, including:
·
adjusted cost of products sold;
·
adjusted gross profit;
·
adjusted research and development expense;
·
adjusted selling, general and administrative expense;
·
adjusted income from operations;
·
adjusted interest expense;
·
adjusted other income (net);
·
adjusted income tax expense;
·
adjusted net income;
·
adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share; and
·
statistics using one or more of such adjusted
measures.
These non-GAAP financial
measures exclude certain items from the most comparable financial measure
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the
United States (GAAP). Each of these measures is presented together with
the most comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The
excluded items are:
Manufacturing
Optimization.
These
charges and expenses relate to the sale of our Salt Lake City, Utah
manufacturing facility and the closure, or pending closures, of our Ashland,
Ohio; Donegal, Ireland; and Montreal, Canada facilities and our departure from
the North Chicago, Illinois manufacturing facility, which were announced in
2005 and 2006. These charges and expenses include restructuring
charges and expenses relating to the relocation of production from the affected
facilities to other facilities. Partially
offsetting these charges and expenses are gains on the sale of the Donegal and
Montreal facilities, and reductions of the obligations to the purchaser of the
Salt Lake City facility recorded in subsequent periods.
All of these facilities
were transferred to us in connection with our 2004 spin-off from Abbott
Laboratories, and our management determined that these facilities would not be
used in our operations in future periods to reduce our future ongoing operating
costs and improve the efficiency of our manufacturing operations. Accordingly,
we do not believe that the charges and expenses relating to the closure or
disposal of these facilities, and the transfer of production to other
facilities, are necessarily indicative of our ongoing business performance and
normal operations. We expect to incur expenses for these initiatives
through 2009. As the product relocation expenses and
2
certain restructuring
charges are incurred in cash, excluding these items has the effect of excluding
significant cash expenditures from the adjusted financial measures.
We incurred these charges
and expenses, net of the gains and reductions of obligations described above,
on a pre-tax basis in the amount of $4.1 million and $8.3 million in the three
months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and in the amount of $36.0 million
and $49.6 million in the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
which are recorded in cost of products sold.
Purchase
Accounting Charges.
On February 2, 2007, we acquired Mayne Pharma Limited. For the twelve months ended December 31,
2007, we recorded a $53.1 million non-cash inventories step-up charge in cost
of products sold. During the three
months ended March 31, 2007, we also incurred a non-cash charge of $84.8
million of acquired in-process research and development. During the three months ended December 31,
2007 we purchased certain clinical studies related to a compound that will be
used to file for expanded medical indications. The cost for these clinical
studies was $3.2 million and was recorded as acquired in-process research and
development as the studies have no alternative future uses. During the three
months ended December 31, 2006, we acquired BresaGen Limited. In connection
with this acquisition, we incurred a $10.0 million non-cash charge relating to
the write-off of acquired in-process research and development. As these types
of charges are incurred in connection with, and in the period of, the
completion of acquisitions, and the amount of these charges depends upon the
allocation of the purchase price in accordance with applicable accounting
rules, the timing and amount of these charges are unpredictable. These
charges have materially affected our reported financial results for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, but are not necessarily
reflective of our ongoing business performance.
Exclusion of these charges from the adjusted financial measures results
in economic costs to us not being reflected in our adjusted net income and
earnings per share.
Acquisition
and Integration-Related Expenses.
During the three months ended December 31, 2007
and 2006 we incurred $12.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of expenses
relating to the integration of Mayne Pharma into our operations. During the twelve months ended December 31,
2007 and 2006 we incurred $44.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively of
expenses relating to the integration of Mayne Pharma into our operations. These
are recorded as cost of products sold, research and development expense and
selling, general and administrative expense as detailed in the schedules to the
press release. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we
also incurred $7.9 million of other acquisition-related charges, including
foreign exchange losses relating to the Mayne Pharma acquisition (recorded in
other income, net) and fees incurred in connection with the bridge loan to
finance the acquisition (recorded in interest expense). During the
three months ended December 31, 2007, we received a refund of $1.4 million
for fees incurred in connection with the bridge loan to finance the Mayne
Pharma acquisition (recorded as an offset to interest expense). During the
two-year period after the closing of the acquisition, we estimate that we will
incur approximately $60 million to $75 million of aggregate cash expenses
related to the integration and other acquisition-related expenses. We do
not believe that these expenses are necessarily indicative of our ongoing business
operations, as they were necessitated by a significant acquisition and will be
incurred over a finite period. Excluding these expenses will have the
effect of excluding significant cash expenditures from the adjusted financial
measures.
Amortization
of Mayne Pharma Intangible Assets.
Based on our purchase price allocation relating to the
Mayne Pharma acquisition, we recorded $518.2 million of intangible assets on
our balance sheet, which will be amortized over their useful lives, resulting
in significant non-cash expenses.
During the three and twelve months
ended December 31, 2007, we recorded $12.5 million and $47.5 million,
respectively, of amortization expense resulting from the Mayne Pharma
acquisition in cost of products sold.
The amount of amortization
expense can vary significantly among companies in our industry depending on the
frequency, size and nature of acquisitions. While recording amortization is
intended to represent the decrease in value of these intangible assets over
time, the amount of recorded amortization may not necessarily represent our
operating performance during the periods recorded because of the uncertainties
inherent in estimating the fair value and useful lives of intangible assets at
the time of the acquisition. In order to assist comparability to our
prior results and to the results of other companies in our industry with
different acquisition histories, we have excluded the amortization of acquired
intangible assets in connection with the Mayne Pharma acquisition from our
adjusted financial measures. We have not previously excluded amortization
expense in calculating our adjusted measures. Prior to the Mayne Pharma
acquisition, amortization has not been material to prior periods.
Exclusion of amortization relating to the Mayne Pharma acquisition effectively
results in the recording of acquired intangible assets without recording any
expense relating to the use of these assets in our business.
3
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and Facility Closure Costs.
In the three months ended December 31,
2007, as a result of changes in sales projections, management made a decision
to limit future research and development investments related to a previous
acquisition of brain-function monitoring devices. As a result of this decision
and future projections, during the three months ended December 31, 2007, we
recorded an impairment charge of $7.5 million, which is reported in cost of
products sold, and expect to record certain closure costs in 2008. Management
makes strategic decisions on the allocation of resources that may impair the
carrying value of long-lived assets. We believe that this charge is not
necessarily indicative of our ongoing normal operations as such decisions and
charges are infrequent and affect the comparability of our results. Excluding
this item has the effect of excluding a non-cash charge from the adjusted
financial measures.
Non-Recurring
Transition Expenses.
These expenses related to our transition to an independent
public company as a result of our 2004 spin-off from Abbott. We finished
incurring these expenses in 2006. These expenses primarily were for
establishing new facilities, building out independent information systems, and
product re-registration and re-labeling. We believe that these expenses were
not necessarily indicative of our ongoing business performance as these
expenses were necessitated by our spin-off. Excluding these expenses had the
effect of excluding significant cash expenditures from the adjusted financial
measures in periods through 2006. On a
pre-tax basis, we incurred $4.2 million and $35.0 million of these expenses in
the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2006, respectively. We incurred none of these expenses in 2007.
The schedules included in
the press release that reconcile the adjusted financial measures to the
financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP indicate the amount of
such net expenses excluded from cost of products sold, research and development
expense, selling, general and administrative expense, interest expense and
other income, net to arrive at the corresponding adjusted financial measure.
Adjustments have been
made to income tax expense in the appropriate period to take into account any
tax effect of each excluded item.
All adjusted measures are
reconciled to the most comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP in
the press release. We believe that presenting measures excluding the
items described above, along with measures calculated in accordance with GAAP,
provide investors with more information to assess our operating performance and
prospects. We also believe that excluding these items assists
comparability with past performance. Our management uses these adjusted measures
as supplemental measures in assessing its own performancefor example, these
measures are used in establishing our annual and long-term operating plans,
presented to our board of directors in its review of our financial performance
and considered in establishing targets under employee incentive plans. Since
these measures allow investors to assess our performance on a similar basis as
our management assesses our performance, we believe that investors have more
information to assess the performance of management in executing its goals and
strategies.
Non-GAAP financial
measures are not presented in accordance with a body of comprehensive
accounting principles and should not be considered a substitute for any GAAP
measure. The measures we use result largely from our managements
determination as to whether the facts and circumstances surrounding certain
transactions and events are indicative of the ordinary course of the ongoing
operation of our business. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures as
presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
Our management uses
non-GAAP financial measures as a supplement to, and not a substitute for,
measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, these measures
should be considered together with the corresponding financial measures
prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our management reviews,
and encourages investors to review, our balance sheets and statements of cash
flows in order to make a complete evaluation and assessment of our financial
performance.
