Wright Medical Group, Inc. Reports 2012 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Financial Results and Provides 2013 Guidance

Significant Progress Made in 2012 to Transform Business and Maximize Foot and Ankle Opportunity

Fourth Quarter Global Foot and Ankle Net Sales Increase 20% As Reported and 20% Constant Currency

Full-Year 2012 Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities of $68.8 Million and Free Cash Flow of $49.5 Million

ARLINGTON, Tenn.--()--Wright Medical Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WMGI) reported financial results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012 and provided 2013 guidance.

Net sales totaled $123.5 million during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2012, representing a 3% decrease as reported and a 2% decrease on a constant currency basis compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. During the fourth quarter of 2012, as anticipated, global sales were negatively affected by U.S. OrthoRecon customer losses and price decreases in Japan that were effective in the second quarter of 2012, partially offset by strong growth in the global foot and ankle business.

Robert Palmisano, president and chief executive officer, commented, “Our performance in the fourth quarter reflects continued strong implementation of the transformational changes to our business. Notably, the fourth consecutive quarter of accelerating global foot and ankle growth underscores the positive progress that we continue to make in our foot and ankle business by leveraging our large, direct sales organization, introducing new products, driving productivity gains and increasing our medical education programs. We also generated strong free cash flow in 2012, which was more than triple the amount generated in the prior year.”

Palmisano commented further, “We remain optimistic about the longer term outlook for our OrthoRecon business and will continue to focus on driving significant improvements in customer satisfaction and ensuring an R&D product pipeline that meets current and future customer needs. With this focus, our team is confident that we will be able to work towards building a growing global OrthoRecon business that delivers exceptional levels of customer service, market rates of growth and significant cash contribution.”

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled $5.4 million or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.2 million or $0.03 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 included the after-tax effects of $2.5 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, $1.7 million of charges associated with distributor conversions and non-competes, $2.1 million of non-cash interest expense related to the 2017 Convertible Notes, an unrealized loss of $3.5 million related to mark-to-market adjustments on derivatives, $1.8 million of due diligence and transaction costs, a $2.4 million increase to management’s estimate of the Company’s probable insurance recovery for previously recognized costs associated with product liability claims, and a $15 million gain on the sale of intellectual property. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 included the after-tax effects of $2.8 million of charges associated with the 2011 cost restructuring plan, $3.4 million of expenses associated with the Company’s DPA, and $2.4 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

The Company’s fourth quarter 2012 net income, as adjusted for the above items, decreased to $1.8 million in 2012 from $6.7 million in 2011, while diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, decreased to $0.05 in the fourth quarter of 2012 from $0.17 in the fourth quarter of 2011. Including stock-based expense, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, totaled $0.01 in the fourth quarter of 2012. The attached financial tables include a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to “as adjusted” results.

Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $333.0 million as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of $161.3 million compared to the end of the fourth quarter of 2011. Net cash flow from operating activities was $11.1 million, which combined with capital expenditures of $6.0 million, resulted in free cash flow of $5.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to free cash flow of $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Palmisano concluded, “During 2013, we will continue to make investments to accelerate foot and ankle growth and sales productivity, build a growing global OrthoRecon business and deliver sustained, strong cash flow. We also look forward to closing the transaction with BioMimetic and adding BioMimetic’s breakthrough biologics platform and pipeline to our Extremities business. We believe this will significantly accelerate the positive transformation of our business as well as our strategy of building a world-class biologics platform and growing our foot and ankle business at well above market growth rates. Our team is confident that the right organizational alignment and strategic programs are in place to position us for future success and drive growth and shareholder value.”

Outlook

Excluding the impact of the proposed transaction with BioMimetic Therapeutics, Inc. that was previously announced on November 19, 2012, the Company anticipates full-year 2013 net sales to be in the range of $485 million to $495 million. This range includes a negative impact from currency of approximately 2 percent as compared to 2012.

The Company anticipates as-adjusted earnings per share, including stock-based compensation, to be in the range of $0.00 to $0.06 per diluted share, based on approximately 40.0 million shares outstanding. While the amount of the non-cash stock-based compensation charges will vary depending upon a number of factors, the Company currently estimates that the after-tax impact of those expenses will be approximately $0.19 per diluted share for the full-year 2013. The Company’s earnings target excludes non-compete and transition costs associated with converting a major portion of independent foot and ankle territories to direct, possible future acquisitions, other material future business developments, the U.S. government inquiry relating to the PROFEMUR® hip products, non-cash interest expense associated with the 2017 Convertible Notes, and non-cash mark-to-market derivative adjustments.

The Company anticipates 2013 free cash flow to be in the range of $35 million to $40 million.

If the proposed transaction with BioMimetic closes as anticipated by the end of the first quarter of 2013, the Company anticipates no change to its full-year 2013 net sales range of $485 million to $495 million. This transaction is anticipated to negatively impact earnings per share in the range of $0.32 to $0.34 per diluted share, resulting in anticipated full-year 2013 loss per share including stock-based compensation for the combined company of $(0.26) to $(0.34) per diluted share, based on approximately 45.8 million shares outstanding, and free cash flow in the range of $0 million to $5 million.

The Company’s anticipated ranges for net sales, adjusted earnings per share, non-cash stock-based compensation charges and free cash flow are forward-looking statements, as are any other statements which anticipate or aspire to future performance against key metrics. They are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the anticipated targets. The anticipated targets 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 net sales, excluding the impact of foreign currency; operating income, as adjusted; net income, as adjusted; net income, as adjusted, per diluted share; effective tax rate, as adjusted; 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 exclude such items as costs related to the U.S. governmental inquiries and the DPA, costs associated with distributor conversions and non-competes, non-cash interest expense related to the Company’s 2017 Convertible Notes, mark-to-market adjustments on derivative assets and liabilities, losses associated with the termination of derivative instruments, write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs, restructuring charges, gains or losses on the sale of assets, transaction costs, changes in estimates of the Company’s total probable insurance recovery for costs associated with product liability claims, IRS audit liabilities, costs related to settlement of certain employment matters and the hiring of a new CEO, and non-cash stock-based expense, all of 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 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.
