Embecta Corp. Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results

/EIN News/ -- PARSIPPANY, N.J., May 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Embecta Corp. (“embecta” or the "Company") (Nasdaq: EMBC), a global diabetes care company, today reported financial results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2025.

"This quarter’s financial results were once again slightly ahead of our prior expectations, as our teams executed well, which included driving an acceleration in our free-cash flow generation, thereby allowing us to continue to repay debt and create additional balance sheet flexibility," said Devdatt (Dev) Kurdikar, President and Chief Executive Officer of embecta.

Mr. Kurdikar added, "In this challenging operating environment, we are raising key profitability metrics while maintaining our prior adjusted earnings per share guidance despite a lowered fiscal year 2025 adjusted constant current revenue guidance range and the impact of incremental tariffs. This reflects favorable projected foreign exchange rates, which are allowing us to keep our as-reported revenue guidance range largely unchanged, as well as disciplined operating expense controls and the benefit of our recently announced restructuring program.

Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing our strategic priorities and look forward to sharing more at our Analyst & Investor Day on May 22, 2025."

Adjusted Constant Currency Revenue Growth is based upon Reported Revenues, adjusted to exclude, depending on the period presented, the items described in Adjusted Revenues and to eliminate the impact of translating the results of international subsidiaries at different currency exchange rates from period to period. The impact of changes in foreign currency may vary significantly from period to period, and such changes generally are outside of the control of our management. We believe that this measure facilitates a comparison of our operating performance exclusive of currency exchange rate fluctuations that do not reflect our underlying performance or business trends. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on an Adjusted constant currency revenue basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company's revenues decreased by $28.2 million, or 9.8%, to $259.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to revenues of $287.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Changes in revenues are driven by the volume of goods that the Company sells, the prices it negotiates with customers, and changes in foreign exchange rates. The decrease in revenues was driven by $26.6 million of unfavorable changes in volume and $6.0 million associated with the negative impact of foreign currency translation primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar. This was partially offset by $2.5 million of favorable changes in price and a $1.9 million increase in contract manufacturing revenues related to sales of non-diabetes products to Becton, Dickinson and Company ("BD").

The Company’s revenues decreased by $43.6 million, or 7.7%, to $520.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to revenues of $564.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in revenues was driven by $44.5 million of unfavorable changes in volume and $8.0 million associated with the negative impact of foreign currency translation primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar. This was partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in contract manufacturing revenues related to sales of non-diabetes products to BD and $4.1 million of favorable changes in price.

Fiscal Year 2025 Updated Financial Guidance:

For fiscal year 2025, the Company now expects:

Dollars in millions, except percentages and per share data   Current   Previous (1)
Reported Revenues   $1,073 - $1,090   $1,075 - $1,092
Reported Revenue Growth (%)   (4.4)% - (2.9)%   (4.3)% - (2.8)%
Impact of F/X (%)   (0.8)%   (2.2)%
Impact of Italian Payback Measure (2) (%)   0.4%   0.4%
Adjusted Constant Currency Revenue Growth (%)   (4.0)% - (2.5)%   (2.5)% - (1.0)%
Adjusted Gross Margin (%)   62.75% - 63.75%   63.25% - 64.25%
Adjusted Operating Margin (%)   29.75% - 30.75%   29.50% - 30.50%
Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share   $2.70 - $2.90   $2.70 - $2.90
Adjusted EBITDA Margin (%)   36.25% - 37.25%   36.00% - 37.00%

(1) Previous guidance was issued on February 6, 2025.

(2) Reflects the recognition of incremental Italian payback accruals resulting from the two July 22, 2024 rulings by the Constitutional Court of Italy relating to certain prior years since 2015 recorded in Revenues.

We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of our expected adjusted gross margin, expected adjusted operating margin, expected adjusted earnings per diluted share, expected adjusted EBITDA and our expected adjusted EBITDA margin as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty, and without unreasonable effort the impact and timing of any one-time items. The financial impact of these one-time items is uncertain and is dependent on various factors, including timing, and could be material to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

About Non-GAAP financial measures

In evaluating our operating performance, we supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures including (i) Adjusted Revenues, (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), (iii) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (iv) Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, (v) Adjusted Constant Currency Revenue Growth, (vi) Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income Margin, and (vii) Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share. These non-GAAP financial measures are indicators of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. They are presented with the intent of providing greater transparency to financial information used by us in our financial analysis and operational decision-making. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist investors, stockholders and other readers of our consolidated financial statements in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing the underlying performance of our results of operations. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it regards to be a meaningful alternative representation of the underlying operating performance of the business.

For the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the reconciliation of (1) GAAP Revenues ("Reported Revenues") to Adjusted Revenues, and (2) GAAP Net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA was as follows (unaudited, in millions):

Safe Harbor Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains express or implied "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. These forward-looking statements concern our current expectations regarding our future results from operations, performance, financial condition, goals, strategies, plans, achievements, and anticipated product clearances, approvals and launches. These forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, and you should not rely upon them except as statements of our present intentions and of our present expectations, which may or may not occur. When we use words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “pursue,” “will” or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. For example, embecta is using forward-looking statements when it discusses its fiscal 2025 financial guidance, timing for completion of the restructuring plan associated with the discontinuation of the insulin patch pump program and with respect to streamlining the organization and optimizing resources, expectations related to the impact of incremental tariffs, brand transition plan timing, our ability to expand in other markets, strengthening our core business, expanding our product portfolio and increasing our financial flexibility. Although we believe that our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our expected results may not be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from our expectations. In addition, important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expectations include, among others: (i) competitive factors that could adversely affect embecta’s operations; (ii) any inability to replace the services provided by BD under the transaction documents; (iii) any failure by BD to perform its obligations under the various separation agreements entered into in connection with the separation and distribution; (iv) any events that adversely affect the sale or profitability of embecta’s products or the revenues delivered from sales to its customers; (v) increases in operating costs, including costs incurred from newly instituted tariffs by the U.S. government and certain foreign governments on raw materials and products, fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials or components used in its products, the ability to maintain favorable supplier arrangements and relationships, and the potential adverse effects of any disruption in the availability of such items; (vi) the impact of the global trade environment resulting from newly instituted tariffs causing certain foreign governments, private purchasers and others to consider transitioning away from products originating from certain countries (including the U.S.) in favor of buying “local” products; (vii) changes in reimbursement practices of governments or private payers or other cost containment measures; (viii) the adverse financial impact resulting from unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as regional, national and foreign economic factors, including inflation, deflation, and fluctuations in interest rates; (ix) the impact of changes in U.S. federal laws and policy that could affect fiscal and tax policies, healthcare and international trade, including import and export regulation and international trade agreements; (x) any new pandemic, or any geopolitical instability, including disruptions in its operations and supply chains; (xi) new or changing laws and regulations, or changes in enforcement practices, including laws relating to healthcare, environmental protection, trade, monetary and fiscal policies, taxation and licensing and regulatory requirements for products; (xii) the expected benefits of the separation from BD; (xiii) risks associated with embecta’s indebtedness; (xiv) the risk that ongoing dis-synergy costs, costs of restructuring and other costs incurred in connection with the separation from BD will exceed our estimates of these costs; (xv) the risk that it will be more difficult than expected to effect embecta’s full separation from BD; (xvi) the risks related to timely and successfully completing the brand transition, including any resulting regulatory registration and license delays and interruptions in the transition of the rebranded products into commercial operations, networks, operations and end-to-end product flow and end-user access; (xvii) expectations related to the costs, profitability, timing and the estimated financial impact of, and charges and savings associated with, the restructuring plans we announced; (xviii) risks associated with not completing strategic collaborative partnerships and acquisitions for innovative technologies, complementary product lines, and new markets; and (xix) the other risks described in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as further updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q we have filed or will file hereafter. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements appearing in this release.
