August 2, 2018 7:30 AM

WALTHAM, Mass., Aug. 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Repligen Corporation (NASDAQ: RGEN), a life sciences company focused on bioprocessing technology leadership, today reported financial results for its second quarter and first half of 2018. Provided in this press release are financial highlights for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018, updates to our 2018 financial guidance and access information for today's webcast and conference call.

Tony J. Hunt, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “Our second quarter financial performance was led by record direct sales of our filtration and chromatography products, which nearly doubled year-over-year and delivered greater than 25% organic growth. Our Spectrum products continue to perform well, with 29% pro forma growth over the second quarter of 2017. In our Proteins franchise, we entered into strategic collaborations designed to establish a new growth trajectory in the years ahead. Our outlook for the remainder of the current year remains positive, and based on order demand we are raising our revenue guidance for 2018.”

The conference call will be accessible by dialing toll-free (866) 777-2509 for domestic callers or (412) 317-5413 for international callers. No passcode is required for the live call. In addition, a webcast will be accessible via the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website. Both the conference call and webcast will be archived for a period of time following the live event. The replay dial-in numbers are (877) 344-7529 from the U.S., (855) 669-9658 from Canada and (412) 317-0088 for international callers. Replay listeners must provide the passcode 10122565.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance To supplement our financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance are included in this release: revenue growth rate at constant currency, adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin, adjusted income from operations and adjusted operating margin, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share (EPS). The Company provides revenue growth rates in constant currency to exclude the impact of foreign currency translation in order to facilitate a comparison of its current revenue performance to its past revenue performance. To calculate revenue growth rates in constant currency, the Company converts actual net sales from local currency to U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates in the current and prior period.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial results and/or non-GAAP guidance exclude the impact of: acquisition costs related to the Company’s acquisitions of Atoll GmbH, TangenX Technology Corporation, and Spectrum Lifesciences, LLC (formerly known as Spectrum, Inc.), inventory step-up charges related to the acquisition of Spectrum Inc., intangible amortization costs, non-cash interest expense, and in the case of EBITDA, cash interest expense related to the Company’s May 2016 convertible debt issuance. Also excluded are tax benefits associated with valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, the impact on tax of intangible amortization, tax benefits associated with variable integration expenses and tax benefits associated with tax reform. These costs are excluded because management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations, nor do the resulting charges recorded accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are recorded.

A reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted non-GAAP financial measures is included as an attachment to this press release. When analyzing the Company’s operating performance and guidance investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as substitutable for the comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
