BASi Reports Third Quarter Net Income of $0.16 per Share
WEST LAFAYETTE, IN, August 13, 2015 —Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:BASI)(“BASi” or the “Company”)todayannounced financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2015.
Jacqueline Lemke, BASi’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am pleased to report net income of $1,478,000, or 24% of revenue, and $.16 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal year 2015 and $1,810,000 or 10.2% of revenue and $.16 per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal 2015. The fiscal year 2015 results to date reflect improvement over the prior fiscal year third quarter net income of $215,000 or 3.6% of revenue and $.02 per diluted share and the net loss for the first nine months of the prior fiscal year of $666,000 or a negative 3.7% of revenues and negative $.08 per diluted share.A portion of our fiscal 2015 third quarter net income performance was positively impacted by the accelerated recognition of Preclinical service revenue due to early project terminations and a one-time mediation settlement with a former service provider.”
Ms. Lemke continued, “With revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 increasing sequentially by 7.4% versus the second quarter of fiscal 2015 and 2.0% versus the same quarter in the prior fiscal year, the overall performance this quarter was very encouraging. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 improved to $1,892,000 from $762,000 and Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of fiscal year 2015 improved to $2,842,000 from $2,089,000 as compared to the same period in fiscal year 2014. Adjusted EBITDA through the first nine months of fiscal 2015 amounted to 16.0% of revenue versus 11.5% during the comparable fiscal 2014 period.”
Ms. Lemke concluded, “We continue to strive to enhance shareholder value by delivering high quality data, instruments and customer service to our clients through BASi’s established strengths in specialty assay development, drug discovery service offerings, regulatory excellence and innovation.”
Third Quarter Results
For the three months ended June 30, 2015, revenue increased 2.0% to $6,150,000 compared to $6,032,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2014.
Service revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 5.2% to $5,001,000 compared to $4,754,000 for the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase reflects improvement in Preclinical service and Bioanalytical analysis revenues partially offset by lower Other laboratory services revenue.
Product revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased 10.1% to $1,149,000 compared to revenue of $1,278,000 for the same period of fiscal 2014. The decline was due primarily to lower Analytical instrument sales.
Gross profit increased to $2,490,000 or 40.5% of revenue, in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to $1,984,000, or 32.9% of revenue, for the comparable period of fiscal 2014. Services margins increased favorably due to the early termination of two Preclinical services projects resulting in the accelerated reporting of revenue. Product margins decreased due to a less favorable mix than the same period of fiscal 2014.
Operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased to $956,000 compared to $1,728,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The decline resulted primarily from a favorable $620,000 (net) mediation settlement with one of the Company’s former service providers in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. This settlement was recorded under operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Other factors decreasing operating expenses included lower personnel costs compared to the same period one year ago and roughly $140,000 in proceeds from the lease of a portion of our headquarters building.
Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 was $1,478,000, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to net income of $215,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the same period of fiscal 2014.
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 amounted to $1,892,000 compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 of $762,000. This 148% improvement reflects the increase in operating income in the quarter.
Nine Months Results
For the nine months ended June 30, 2015, revenue decreased 2.4% to $17,721,000 compared to $18,164,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2014.
Service revenue decreased 1.9% compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2014, representing a decline in Other laboratory services due to a decreased number of bioequivalence studies partially offset by the early termination of two Preclinical services projects resulting in the accelerated reporting of revenue in the third quarter.
Product revenue decreased 4.4% compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2014, mainly due to lower Analytical instruments revenue and lower hardware maintenance services.
Gross profit increased to $6,196,000 or 34.9% of revenue compared to $6,141,000 or 33.8% of revenue for the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Operating expenses decreased 15.5% to $4,492,000 from $5,318,000 in the same period of fiscal 2014. The decline resulted primarily from the favorable mediation settlement approximating $600,000 (net), described above. Other factors decreasing operating expenses included lower discretionary spending compared to same period one year ago and roughly $190,000 in rental income relating to leasing a portion of our headquarters building.
Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2015 amounted to $1,810,000, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $666,000, or negative $0.08 per diluted share, for the same period of fiscal 2014. The increase in net income was positively impacted by the mediation settlement described above and the early termination of two Preclinical services projects recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2015.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first nine months of fiscal 2015 amounted to $2,842,000, which is a 36% increase, as compared to $2,089,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2014.
Cash Used in Operating Activities and Liquidity Position
Cash provided by operating activities was $1,175,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2015 in line with the first nine months of fiscal 2014. The Company had $516,000 in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015. During the first nine months, cash from operations, and cash on hand funded capital expenditures for plant, machinery and equipment aggregating approximately $666,000 and reductions in long-term debt and capital lease obligations totaling roughly $800,000.

Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation
This press release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA refers to a financial performance measure that excludes certain income statement line items, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA may also exclude certain non-cash expenses, such as stock-based compensation and the income or expense from the change in the warrant liability.
The non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management, however, believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with GAAP, may provide a more complete understanding of the Company's results and may facilitate a fuller analysis of the Company's results, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another.
Management has chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts, and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of results and to illustrate the results giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the reconciliation. Management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP measures used by the Company may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
