REGENERATION TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES 2006 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Company Will Hold Conference Call at 9:00 a.m. ET
ALACHUA, Fla. (August 8, 2006) – Regeneration Technologies, Inc. (RTI) (Nasdaq: RTIX), a leading processor of orthopedic, cardiovascular and other biologic implants, announced today that the company’s revenues were $18.3 million for the second quarter of 2006 and $36.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $17.6 million for the second quarter 2005 and $32.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, the company reported net loss of $1.6 million and net loss per diluted share of $.05, compared to net loss of $1 million and net loss per diluted share of $0.04 for the second quarter 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 the company reported net loss of $2.9 million and net loss per diluted share of $0.10, compared to net loss of $2.2 million and net loss per diluted share of $0.08 for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
During the second quarter and first six months of 2006, the company recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling approximately $.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively, before income taxes, or $0.02 and $0.04, respectively, on net loss per diluted share, under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R. Prior to 2006, the company accounted for stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25.
“During the first six months of 2006 we have steadily progressed on our key growth strategies: expanding our direct distribution network, building our Sterling line of implants and investing in R&D to
expand our product portfolio, however, our first six month results were more negatively impacted by lower donor recoveries than we had anticipated,” said Brian Hutchison, RTI’s Chairman, President and CEO. “We are intensifying our efforts in this area to improve our second half performance. We continue to expect sequential increases in our revenues for the second half of the year. A more positive development occurred during the second quarter when we began negotiations to restructure our contract with our largest distributor, that when completed, could have a long-term impact on our business model.”
Second Quarter and Six Month 2006 Analysis
Spinal Constructs:Revenues from distribution of spinal implants were $8.6 million for the second quarter, compared to $9.2 million in the prior year period, representing a decrease of 6.6 percent. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $17.8 million, compared to $15.1 million in the prior year period, representing an increase of 18.1 percent. The comparative revenue volumes were impacted by the timing of orders in the first half of 2006 by our largest distributor.
Bone Graft Substitutes: Revenues from distribution of bone graft substitutes were $3.7 million for the second quarter, compared to $3.6 million for the prior year period. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $7.5 million, compared to $7.2 million for the prior year period. Bone graft substitutes consist of all moldable and flowable bone pastes, as well as all chips and cubes. The revenues were favorably impacted by increased volumes through our international distributors.
Sports Medicine:Revenues from distribution of sports medicine implants were $3.6 million for the second quarter, compared to $2.0 million for the prior year period, representing an increase of 78.5 percent. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $6.8 million, compared to $4.2 million for the prior year period, representing an increase of 59.3 percent. The increases in both periods were principally due to higher fees recognized through our direct distribution compared to an independent distributor in 2005 and a significant increase in the volume of ancillary tendon distributions during the second quarter of 2006.
Cardiovascular: Revenues from distribution of cardiovascular implants were $1.6 million for the second quarter, compared to $1.8 million for the prior year period. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $2.9 million, compared to $3.9 million for the prior year period. The primary reason for the decreased revenue was lower cardiovascular recoveries during the quarter and six months. Demand for these life-saving implants remains high.
General Orthopedic: Revenues from general orthopedic implants were $226,000 for the second quarter, compared to $266,000 for the second quarter of the prior year period. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $502,000, compared to $478,000 for the six months of the prior year period. General orthopedic revenue consists of bone blocks, strips, wedges and shafts.
Other: Revenues from other implants were $631,000 for the second quarter, compared to $688,000 for the second quarter of the prior year period. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $1.3 million, compared to $1.6 million for the six months of the prior year period. Other revenues consist of tissue recovery fees, biomedical laboratory fees, manufacturing royalties, shipping fees, distribution of reproductions of our allografts to distributors for demonstration purposes and restocking fees.
Growth Strategies
Distribution –
During the quarter the total number of domestic representatives was increased to 116 individuals in 15 territories nationwide, an increase of more than 75 reps since December 2005. For the first time, sports medicine implant unit volumes distributed through the company’s direct distribution network exceeded levels achieved by the company’s former distribution partner for this line of products.
Research and development –
The company completed the launch of the Adjustable Bone Tendon Bone (BTB) allograft at the annual meetings of the Arthroscopy Association of North America (AANA) and the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) during the second quarter. The Sterling® Wedge was launched in July through our direct distribution force and additional products scheduled for launch during the third quarter include BioCleanse® achilles tendon and meniscus.
Sterling® product line –
During the second quarter the company received a CE mark for ten Sterling products and began international distribution in Turkey, Switzerland and Italy. A clinical evaluation for Sterling cervical spinal implants also began during the quarter in Bordeaux, France and we continued to make progress with the FDA on our 510(k) filings for an spinal ALIF implant and our combination human and a xenograft bone paste.
The Sterling Biological Matrix provides surgeons an expanded supply of safe, sterile tissue that is a natural alternative to autograft, allograft and synthetic resorbable materials. RTI’s patented BioCleanse Tissue Sterilization Process enables delivery of xenograft implants that are sterile with improved biocompatibility and preserved structural integrity.
