SAN DIEGO, Jan. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ResMed Inc. (NYSE: RMD) today announced results for its quarter ended December 31, 2016. Revenue for the quarter was $530.4 million, a 17 percent increase compared to the same period of the prior year. Excluding the contribution from the Brightree business acquired in April 2016, revenue for the quarter was $496.6 million, a 9 percent increase.

"We had a strong quarter with 18 percent constant currency revenue growth led by solid growth in our Brightree software offerings and global device sales," said Mick Farrell, ResMed's chief executive officer. "We continue to pioneer game-changing products and create value with our solutions. This quarter we announced: FDA clearance for the world's smallest travel CPAP; the creation of SleepScore Labs to focus on consumer sleep wellness; reaching the milestone of one billion nights of sleep data; and new research demonstrating that the use of myAir(TM) significantly improves patient adherence to sleep therapy in Europe."

Farrell concluded, "We are focused on our goal of changing the lives of 20 million patients by 2020 and we continue to lead the industry through an exciting pipeline of new products and connected care solutions that improve patient outcomes, create efficiencies for our homecare customers, and help physicians and providers better manage chronic disease and lower healthcare costs."

Analysis of second quarter results
Second quarter revenue in the Americas was $326.8 million, a 21 percent increase over the same period of the prior year. This included Brightree revenue of $33.8 million. Excluding Brightree, revenue in the Americas was $293.0 million, a 9 percent increase over the prior year. Revenue in combined EMEA and APAC was $203.6 million, an increase of 13 percent on a constant currency basis, compared to the same period of the prior year.

Gross margin in the second quarter was 58.3 percent, higher than the prior year's quarter gross margin of 58.1 percent, excluding the prior year release of $2.4 million in accrued expenses associated with the SERVE-HF field safety notice. The improvement in gross margin compared to prior year's quarter was due to manufacturing and procurement efficiencies and an incremental contribution from the Brightree acquisition, partly offset by changes in product mix and declines in average selling prices.

Income from operations for the quarter was $96.9 million, a 10 percent decline compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Non-GAAP income from operations for the quarter was $131.6 million, a 13 percent increase compared to the same period of the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $139.3 million, an 18 percent increase over the same period in the prior year, also an 18 percent increase on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses increased to 26.3 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 26.0 percent reported in the quarter ended December 31, 2015.

Research and development expenses were $38.2 million, or 7.2 percent of revenue. R&D expenses increased by 32 percent compared with the same period last year, or a 28 percent increase on a constant currency basis.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $11.7 million during the quarter, an increase of $7.3 million compared with the same period last year. The increase in amortization of acquired intangible assets was primarily due to the amortization expense associated with the Brightree and Inova acquisitions. Stock-based compensation costs incurred during the quarter of $10.8 million consisted of expenses associated with employee equity grants, and our employee stock purchase plan.

Net income for the quarter was $76.7 million, a 20 percent decrease compared to the same period of the prior year. Non-GAAP net income was $103.3 million, a 1 percent increase compared to the prior year.

Non-GAAP measures adjust for amortization of acquired intangibles, litigation settlement expenses, acquisition related expenses associated with additional contingent consideration on recent acquisitions and restructuring expenses.

GAAP diluted earnings per share for the quarter decreased 21 percent to $0.54. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.73 were consistent with the same period of the prior year.

Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $119.9 million compared to net income in the current quarter of $76.7 million.

    (A)              ResMed adjusts for the impact of
                     the Astral battery field safety
                     notification expenses, release
                     of SERVE-HF accrual,
                     restructuring expenses,
                     litigation settlement expenses,
                     acquisition related expenses and
                     amortization of acquired
                     intangible assets from their
                     evaluation of ongoing operations
                     and believes investors benefit
                     from adjusting these items to
                     facilitate a more meaningful
                     evaluation of current operating
                     performance.


                    ResMed believes that non-GAAP
                     diluted earnings per share is an
                     additional measure of
                     performance investors can use to
                     compare operating results
                     between reporting periods.
                     ResMed uses non-GAAP
                     information internally in
                     planning, forecasting, and
                     evaluating the results of
                     operations in the current period
                     and in comparing it to past
                     periods. ResMed believes this
                     information provides investors
                     better insight in evaluating
                     ResMed's performance from core
                     operations and provides
                     consistent financial reporting.
                     Our use of non-GAAP measures is
                     intended to supplement, and not
                     to replace, our presentation of
                     net income and other GAAP
                     measures. Like all non-GAAP
                     measures, non-GAAP earnings are
                     subject to inherent limitations
                     because they do not include all
                     the expenses that must be
                     included under GAAP.
