July 26, 2016 4:02 PM EDT

SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/26/16 -- NuVasive, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUVA), a leading medical device company focused on transforming spine surgery with minimally disruptive, procedurally-integrated solutions, announced today financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Second Quarter 2016 Highlights

  • Revenue increased 16.4% to $236.2 million, or 16.1% on a constant currency basis;
  • GAAP operating profit margin of 25.4%; Non-GAAP operating profit margin up 60 basis points from prior year to 15.9%;
  • GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.57; Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share up 28% from prior year to $0.40; and
  • Acquired Biotronic NeuroNetwork to support spine service line partnership offerings.

"NuVasive delivered another strong quarter, outperforming the spine market to deliver double-digit revenue growth, expanding our operating profitability year-over-year and delivering earnings growth of 28%," said Gregory T. Lucier, chairman and chief executive officer of NuVasive. "Our results were driven by strong growth in our international business, which benefitted from our continued revitalization efforts, and strength in our U.S. spinal hardware business, where adoption of our integrated Global Alignment platform drove momentum in sales of our procedurally integrated solutions. With this growth in our geographies and businesses for the first half of the year, and the addition of the Biotronic NeuroNetwork business, we are raising our full year guidance for 2016."

NuVasive achieved several strategic milestones in the second quarter. The Company completed the acquisition of Biotronic NeuroNetwork on July 1, and combined the service offerings of Biotronic with its Impulse Monitoring business to form NuVasive Clinical Services. This new division doubles the Company's service line footprint and will provide intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring services to surgeons and healthcare facilities in more than 75,000 U.S. cases annually. Also, the Company reached a definitive agreement with Medtronic to settle more than eight years of ongoing patent litigation between the two companies, removing the associated expense of legal proceedings and providing a clear protocol for resolution of potential patent disputes in the future.

A full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures can be found in the tables of this news release.

Second Quarter 2016 Results
NuVasive's financial results for the second quarter 2016 are inclusive of results from Ellipse Technologies, Inc. and Mega Surgical, as both of these previously disclosed acquisitions were completed in the first quarter 2016. Ellipse Technologies now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary under the renamed legal entity NuVasive Specialized Orthopedics, Inc. (NSO).

NuVasive reported second quarter 2016 total revenue of $236.2 million, a 16.4% increase compared to $202.9 million for the second quarter 2015. On a constant currency basis, second quarter 2016 total revenue increased 16.1% compared to the same period last year.

For the second quarter 2016, GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit was $176.5 million and $183.8 million, respectively, while GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin was 74.7% and 77.8%, respectively. These results compared to GAAP and non-GAAP gross profit of $154.5 million and GAAP and non-GAAP gross margin of 76.1% for the second quarter 2015. Total GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses were $116.4 million and $146.4 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2016. These results compared to GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses of $128.6 million and $123.5 million, respectively, for the second quarter 2015.

During the second quarter, the Company elected to early adopt the new FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) for employee share-based payment accounting ahead of the mandatory 2017 effective date for all U.S. public companies. The Company adopted the ASU in the second quarter 2016, effective from January 1, 2016. In connection with the adoption, the Company recast its first quarter 2016 results. The impact of the adoption had a favorable impact to the first and second quarter results, and will be favorable for full year 2016. The adoption of the ASU, together with the Company's ongoing tax planning initiatives, are expected to drive significant improvements in the Company's effective tax rate over time.

NuVasive reported a GAAP net income of $30.2 million, or $0.57 per share, for the second quarter 2016 compared to $10.3 million, or $0.20 per share, for the second quarter 2015.

On a non-GAAP basis, the Company reported net income of $20.6 million, or $0.40 per share for the second quarter 2016 compared to $15.7 million, or $0.31 per share, for the second quarter 2015.

Cash, cash equivalents and short and long-term marketable securities were approximately $331.0 million at June 30, 2016.

(1) Prior guidance provided April 26, 2016. Current guidance reflects       
 guidance provided July 26, 2016, as updated for the anticipated impact of  
 the Biotronic Neuronetwork acquisition, the adoption of ASU 2016-09 Stock  
 Compensation, as well as expected changes in currency.                     
(2) Effective tax expense rate of ~63% applied to GAAP earnings and ~41%    
 applied to Non-GAAP earnings.                                              
(3) Effective tax expense rate of ~41% applied to GAAP earnings and ~37%

 adjustments, such as acquired inventory fair market value adjustments,

 above at the statutory rate as well as taking into account discrete items  
 and including those discrete items in the annual effective tax rate

 benefited the tax rate in lieu of the above adjustments as part of the     
 Company's tax filings. The impact of the changes to the tax rate results   
 in an annual estimated rate of ~37% on a non-GAAP basis. The Company       
 adopted ASU 2016-09 Stock Compensation in Q2 2016 which was effective as   
 of January 1, 2016 with retrospective adjustment. The result of the        
 retrospective adjustment resulted in a change in the Q1 2016 quarterly     
 effective tax rate on a non-GAAP basis from 41% to 36%.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Information

Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures such as non-GAAP earnings per share, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating profit margin, which exclude amortization of intangible assets, purchase accounting related charges, leasehold related charges, integration related expenses associated with acquired businesses, one-time restructuring and acquisition related items, CEO transition related costs, certain litigation charges, non-cash interest expense and/or losses on convertible notes, and the impact from taxes related to these items, including those taxes that would have occurred in lieu of these items. Management also uses certain non-GAAP measures which are intended to exclude the impact of foreign exchange currency fluctuations. The measure constant currency is the use of an exchange rate that eliminates fluctuations when calculating financial performance numbers.

The Company also uses measures such as free cash flow, which represents cash flow from operations less cash used in the acquisition and disposition of capital. Additionally, the Company uses an adjusted EBITDA measure which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and excludes the impact of stock-based compensation, purchase accounting related changes, leasehold related charges, integration related expenses associated with acquired businesses, CEO transition related costs, certain litigation liabilities, acquisition related items and other significant one-time items. Management calculates the non-GAAP financial measures provided in this earnings release excluding these costs and uses these non-GAAP financial measures to enable it to further and more consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of its core business operations. Management believes that providing investors with these non-GAAP measures gives them additional information to enable them to assess, in the same way management assesses, the Company's current and future continuing operations. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Set forth below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measure.
