Analogic Corporation Reports Results for Its Second Quarter 2007
PEABODY, MA (March 7, 2007) – Analogic Corporation (NASDAQ: ALOG), a leading designer and manufacturer of high-precision health and security imaging equipment, announced today results for its second quarter ended January 31, 2007. Revenues from continuing operations for the second quarter ended January 31, 2007, were $88,358,000, compared with the prior year’s second quarter revenues from continuing operations of $100,011,000, a decrease of 12%. Income from continuing operations for the second quarter before discontinued operations and the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle was $5,420,000, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to $9,097,000, or $0.66 per diluted share, a year earlier.
Income attributable to the gain on disposal of discontinued operations for the prior year’s second quarter ended January 31, 2006, was $20,640,000, or $1.50 per diluted share.
Net income for the second quarter ended January 31, 2007, was $5,420,000, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to $29,737,000, or $2.16 per diluted share, for the prior year’s second quarter. The Company had previously reported a net loss of $5,360,000, or a $0.39 net loss per diluted share in the current year’s first quarter ended October 31, 2006. The first quarter ended October 31, 2006, included pre-tax asset impairment charges of $9,705,000 associated with the Company’s digital radiography systems business.
Revenues from continuing operations for the six months ended January 31, 2007, were $163,960,000, compared with the prior year’s six-month revenues from continuing operations of $186,421,000, a decrease of 12%. Income from continuing operations before discontinued operations and the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for the six-month period was $60,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to $10,160,000, or $0.74 per diluted share, for the same period a year earlier. The financial results for the six months ended January 31, 2006, include pre-tax restructuring and asset impairment charges of $2,707,000, of which $2,216,000 was associated with the Company’s former SKY Computers subsidiary.
Income attributable to discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, and the gain on disposal of discontinued operations for the six months ended January 31, 2006, was $20,919,000, or $1.52 per diluted share. The $20,919,000 includes a net gain of $20,640,000 after taxes, or $1.50 per diluted share, from the sale of our Camtronics Medical Systems subsidiary on November 1, 2005.
Net income for the first six months ended January 31, 2007, was $60,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared with $31,079,000, or $2.26 per diluted share, for the same period a year earlier.
The decrease in revenue was due primarily to the expected decline in the sales of the Company’s EXplosive Assessment Computed Tomography (EXACT™) security imaging systems. Security technology product revenues were down $11,105,000, or 44%, over the prior year’s second quarter, as the Company shipped 18 EXACTs compared to 44 units a year earlier. As a result of the $31-36 million order the Company received for EXACTs in September 2006, a more regular shipment schedule is anticipated, but at a significantly lower rate than the Company enjoyed in the first half of last year, when 79 units were shipped. Engineering revenues were lower as well because a number of engineering projects were completed and transferred to production during the quarter.
Ed Becker, President and Chief Operating Officer, noted, “The core medical technology business continued its strong performance this quarter. Shipments of Data Acquisition Systems (DASs) for CT were up 18% over a very strong second quarter a year ago, and shipments of power systems for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems were up 11%. Sales of ultrasound probes by the Company’s Sound Technology, Inc., (STI) subsidiary exceeded expectations, and shipments of clinical ultrasound systems by B-K Medical improved over the prior second quarter.“
During the quarter, prototypes of the new KING COBRA™ Explosives Detection System (EDS), designed to screen checked luggage at small to mid-sized airports, and the XLB1100 EDS, designed for high-speed screening of checked luggage at high-traffic airports, were placed at Boston’s Logan International Airport for data gathering and are on schedule to be submitted to the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for certification over the course of the calendar year. Prototypes of the COBRA checkpoint security system are being prepared for shipment to four airports in the very near future, and the system should be submitted for certification shortly thereafter. The AN6400 EXACT system upgrade has completed field evaluations. The Company is now awaiting a TSA determination of what airports should receive system upgrades.
Bernard Gordon, Executive Chairman (Principal Executive Officer), said, “During our first-quarter earnings call, a ten-point program to get the Company back on track was articulated. Overall, I believe we are making considerable progress on that program. Total operating expenses decreased by $2,938,000 for the quarter, compared to a year earlier, due to lower research and development costs and lower general and administrative expenses. We are continuing to evaluate the various aspects of our digital radiography businesses as well as our overall business model, and are making good progress in our search for a new Chief Executive Officer. As a result, I believe we are building a strong foundation for renewed long-term growth for the Company asThe World Resource for Health and Security Technology.”
