Acquisition of Systagenix
In the fourth quarter of 2013, we closed the acquisition of Systagenix, an established provider of advanced wound therapeutics products. Financial results of Systagenix are included within our consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to the acquisition date. Combining Systagenix's advanced wound dressings with our KCI wound care business and innovation pipeline will enable us to create additional value for customers by providing more complete solutions for patients and clinicians.
Transfer of SPY® Elite System Marketing and Distribution Rights
On October 29, 2014, LifeCell Corporation entered into an agreement with Novadaq® Technologies Inc. (“Novadaq”) to transfer all marketing and distribution rights to the SPY® Elite System from LifeCell to Novadaq, effective November 30, 2014. In connection with the transfer, the parties agreed to terminate various distribution agreements entered into between 2010 and 2011. The U.S. agreement for the core fields of plastic, general, and gastrointestinal surgeries was set to expire in November 2015. The termination agreement provides for a one-time payment of $4.5 million to LifeCell on November 30, 2014 and the repurchase of existing inventory. LifeCell has agreed to provide limited transition services to Novadaq through year end. In connection with the transfer, the parties have also resolved all legal disputes between them.
Company Structure
Acelity is a non-operating holding company whose business is comprised of the operations of wholly owned subsidiaries that commercialize our advanced wound therapeutics and regenerative medicine products. Our advanced wound therapeutics business is conducted by KCI and its subsidiaries, including Systagenix, and our regenerative medicine business is conducted by LifeCell. Acelity is controlled by investment funds advised by Apax Partners and controlled affiliates of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and the Public Sector Pension Investment Board and certain other co-investors. Unless otherwise noted in this report, the terms “we,” “our” or “Company,” refer to Acelity and its subsidiaries, collectively.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Within this document, we have presented 1) Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, as defined in our senior secured credit agreement and 2) supplemental revenue data to exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on a non-GAAP basis.
These non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP results. We have provided this supplemental non-GAAP information because it may provide meaningful information regarding our results on a basis that better facilitates an understanding of our results of operations which may not be otherwise apparent under GAAP. Management uses this non-GAAP financial information, along with GAAP information, for reviewing the operating results of its business segments and for analyzing potential future business trends. In addition, we believe some investors may use this information in a similar fashion. A reconciliation of certain GAAP selected financial information for the periods presented to the non-GAAP selected financial information provided is included herein.
1Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations excludes the operations of our previously divested TSS business and the impact of merger-related expenses, foreign currency gains or losses, business optimization expenses and other expenses specified in the reconciliation within this release.
2 The Net Leverage Ratio represents Net Debt divided by Consolidated EBITDA for the last twelve months. Net Debt consists of total indebtedness including capital leases and other financing obligations, less cash and cash equivalents up to the greater of$300.0 million or 40% of Consolidated EBITDA for the last twelve months. Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in our senior secured credit agreement, represents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations plus "run rate" cost savings and a pro forma adjustment related to EBITDA of Systagenix for the pre-acquisition period beginning October 1, 2013, which is not included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
