GREENFIELD, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE: ELAN) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2023, provided guidance for the third quarter of 2023, and raised guidance for the full year 2023.

“Elanco exceeded expectations for the second quarter and first half of 2023, putting us on track to return to revenue growth in the second half and raise full year guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS. Excluding the estimated impact of the successful ERP integration in the second quarter, we delivered sequential improvement in topline performance driven by strong performance in our U.S. Pet Health and International Farm Animal businesses, and contributions from new products and price,” said Jeff Simmons, Elanco president and CEO. “In addition to our improving business performance, Elanco advanced key drivers of our strategic Innovation, Pipeline, and Portfolio framework. I am very pleased with the positive EPA resolution on Seresto and proud that we have launched our Canine Parvovirus Monoclonal Antibody treatment, providing veterinarians with a breakthrough lifesaving product for infected dogs."

“We also made significant progress on our late-stage pipeline – advancing strategic programs and enhancing our confidence in our differentiation and launch revenue plans. By the end of August, we expect the FDA will have all data necessary to approve our differentiated JAK inhibitor for canine dermatology, our differentiated broad spectrum parasiticide for dogs, and Bovaer, a novel product for methane reduction in cattle, supporting our timeline for a path to approval in the first half of 2024 for these potential blockbusters. We are very encouraged by this progress and are intently focused on our launch preparation strategies.”

In the second quarter of 2023, revenue was $1,057 million, a decrease of 10% on a reported basis, or a decrease of 9% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, compared to the second quarter of 2022. Revenue in the period was unfavorably impacted by customer purchases of legacy Bayer Animal Health products that the company believes were shifted from the second quarter of 2023 into the first quarter as a result of the communicated commercial shipping blackout period in April resulting from the company’s ERP system integration (the “ERP Blackout”). Aligned with estimates communicated with first quarter financial results, the company estimates $90 million to $110 million of revenue detriment to the second quarter, or an estimated 8 to 9 percentage point reduction in growth, as a result of the ERP Blackout. The system integration was executed in line with the company’s expectations. Beyond the negative impact of the ERP Blackout in the second quarter, estimated year over year revenue performance improved sequentially for the second straight quarter.

The following table summarizes the estimated impact from the ERP Blackout on Pet Health and Farm Animal revenue:

(1) CC = Constant Currency, representing the growth rate excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates.

Numbers may not add due to rounding.

Pet Health revenue was $518 million, a 15% decrease on a reported basis or a decrease of 14% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, with a 4% increase from price, compared to the second quarter of 2022. Excluding the estimated ERP Blackout impact, the year over year constant currency decline in the second quarter was primarily driven by declines in demand for retail parasiticide products in Spain and continued competitive pressure on certain parasiticide products in the U.S., partially offset by improved price, higher demand for pain products in the U.S., revenue from new products and increased demand for U.S. OTC products, including a shift of approximately $10 million related to retailer promotion events that the company expected to occur in the third quarter of 2023.

Farm Animal revenue was $527 million, a 5% decrease on a reported basis or a decrease of 3% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, with a 3% increase from price compared to the second quarter of 2022. Excluding the estimated ERP Blackout impact, the year over year constant currency growth in the second quarter was primarily driven by revenue from new products, led by Experior, strength in European poultry, and aqua demand, partially offset by supply constraints for cattle vaccines in the U.S. and a weaker sheep season.

Contract Manufacturing revenue was $12 million, flat on a reported basis or an increase of 1% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, driven primarily by disruptions in supply from the company’s vaccine manufacturing facility.

Reported and adjusted gross profit was $623 million, or 58.9% of revenue, in the second quarter of 2023. Reported and adjusted gross profit as a percent of revenue increased 10 basis points, primarily driven by improved price, the impact of favorable foreign exchange rates across our European manufacturing footprint, partially offset by the ERP Blackout and inflation. The company believes gross profit as a percent of revenue was negatively impacted by an estimated 150 to 180 basis points from the ERP Blackout, as the average gross margin of those products is greater than Elanco's overall average gross margin.

Total operating expense was $434 million for the second quarter of 2023. Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased 3% to $353 million, and research and development expenses decreased 1% to $81 million. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily driven by higher employee related expenses and increased promotional spend, primarily supporting the U.S. Pet Health business, partially offset by the favorable impact from foreign exchange rates.

Asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges were $35 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $86 million in the second quarter of 2022. Charges recorded in the second quarter of 2023 primarily related to costs associated with the implementation of new systems, programs and processes due to the integration of Bayer Animal Health. The ERP system go-live was completed in April 2023, with continued performance optimization expected over the next several quarters.

Reported and adjusted net interest expense was $74 million in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of $7 million on a reported basis and $24 million on an adjusted basis, compared to the second quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by the impact of rate increases on variable rate debt and rate increases on our Senior Notes driven by credit downgrades. On a reported basis, the increase was partially offset by a $17 million debt extinguishment charge in the second quarter of 2022.

Other expense was $23 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared with income of $6 million in the second quarter of 2022. Other expense recorded in the second quarter of 2023 primarily consisted of an accrual for a potential settlement related to the Seresto class action lawsuits and to a lesser extent the impact of hyperinflationary accounting in Turkey and Argentina. Other income recorded in the second quarter of 2022 primarily related to a gain on the disposal of the microbiome R&D platform.

The reported effective tax rate decreased to (23.0)% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 28.6% in the second quarter of 2022, primarily driven by the jurisdictional mix of Elanco earnings and a benefit from a cash interest rate swap settlement in the second quarter of 2022. The adjusted effective tax rate increased to 19.9% in the second quarter of 2023 compared to 13.2% in the second quarter of 2022, primarily driven by the jurisdictional mix of Elanco earnings and certain favorable return to provision adjustments that impacted the second quarter of 2022.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2023 was $97 million and $0.20 per diluted share on a reported basis, compared with net loss of $10 million and $0.02 per diluted share for the same period in 2022. On an adjusted basis, net income for the second quarter of 2023 was $90 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, a 54% decrease compared with the same period in 2022. The company estimates adjusted EPS in the second quarter includes a $0.11 to $0.14 detriment from the ERP Blackout, assuming a corporate consolidated tax rate of 21.9%, aligned with the first quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA was $222 million in the second quarter of 2023, a 27% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue was 21.0% compared with 25.9% for the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of 490 basis points. The company estimates adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter includes a $70 million to $90 million detriment from the ERP Blackout, or a 450 to 540 basis point detriment in adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue.

The following table summarizes the estimated impact from the ERP Blackout on adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS:

Working Capital and Balance Sheet

Cash provided by operations was $61 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to cash provided by operations of $312 million in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in cash from operations in the second quarter of 2023 reflects the impact of interest rate swap settlements from the second quarter of 2022, higher net loss, and increased net working capital, driven by higher inventory.

As of June 30, 2023, Elanco’s net leverage ratio was 5.9x adjusted EBITDA, compared to 5.4x as of March 31, 2023.

Elanco is raising its full year 2023 guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share. The raised revenue guidance is driven by increased expectations for U.S. Pet Health, poultry and aqua, partially offset by lowered expectations for U.S. Farm Animal and contract manufacturing revenue. The impact of foreign exchange on revenue is now expected to be a headwind of approximately $25 million to $30 million, a $5 million increase from May, from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates compared to the prior year. On a constant currency basis, the company expects the year-over-year change in revenue to be between a 1% decline and 1% growth. For adjusted EBITDA, overperformance in the second quarter is expected to be offset in the second half of the year by gross margin pressure from expected sales mix and reduced plant utilization to decrease balance sheet inventory as well as increased investment in Pet Health to drive portfolio momentum and support launch preparations. In addition to the items impacting adjusted EBITDA, improved expectations on interest expense and tax are reflected in the raised adjusted EPS guidance.

Additionally, the company is providing guidance for the third quarter of 2023, as summarized in the following table:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as revenue excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate effects, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EPS, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and net debt leverage to assess and analyze our operational results and trends as explained in more detail in the reconciliation tables later in this release.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and reported GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release and are posted on our website at www.elanco.com. The primary material limitations associated with the use of such non-GAAP measures as compared to U.S. GAAP results include the following: (i) they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, including those in our industry, (ii) they exclude financial information and events, such as the effects of an acquisition or amortization of intangible assets, that some may consider important in evaluating our performance, value or prospects for the future, (iii) they exclude items or types of items that may continue to occur from period to period in the future and (iv) they may not exclude all unusual or non-recurring items, which could increase or decrease these measures, which investors may consider to be unrelated to our long-term operations. These non-GAAP measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP reported measures. We encourage investors to review our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements in their entirety and caution investors to use U.S. GAAP measures as the primary means of evaluating our performance, value and prospects for the future, and non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures.

Elanco Animal Health Incorporated
Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Selected Non-GAAP Adjusted Information
(Unaudited)
(Dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

We define adjusted gross profit as total revenue less adjusted cost of sales and adjusted gross margin as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenue.

We define adjusted net income as net income (loss) excluding amortization of intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, integration costs of acquisitions, severance, asset impairment, gain on sale of assets, facility exit costs, tax valuation allowances and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations adjusted for income tax expense associated with the excluded financial items.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense (income), which includes debt extinguishment losses, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, integration costs of acquisitions, severance, asset impairment, gain on sale of assets, facility exit costs and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations.

We define adjusted EPS as adjusted net income divided by the number of weighted average shares outstanding for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

We define net debt as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. We define gross debt as the sum of the current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt excluding unamortized debt issuance costs. We define the net leverage ratio as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by adjusted EBITDA. This calculation does not include Term Loan B covenant-related adjustments that reduce this leverage ratio.

The table above reflects only line items with non-GAAP adjustments.

(a)

The company uses non-GAAP financial measures that differ from financial statements reported in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors evaluate the company’s ongoing operations. They can also assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that would otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(b)

Adjustments to certain GAAP reported measures for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 include the following:

 

(1) 

Adjustments of $35 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 related to charges associated with integration efforts and external costs related to the acquisition of Bayer Animal Health. Adjustments of $86 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily related to charges associated with integration efforts and external costs related to the acquisitions of Bayer Animal Health and KindredBio ($26 million) and a nonrecurring charge for acquired IPR&D with no alternative future use that was recorded upon the initial consolidation of a variable interest entity that is not a business ($59 million).

 

(2) 

Adjustments of $17 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily related to a loss recorded in connection with the partial early extinguishment of our 4.272% Senior Notes due 2023.

 

(3) 

Adjustments of $21 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 primarily related to an accrual of $15 million during the quarter for a potential settlement related to the Seresto class action lawsuits, as well as the impact of hyperinflationary accounting in Turkey (approximately $5 million). Adjustments of $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily related to a gain on the disposal of the microbiome R&D platform.

 

(4) 

Adjustments of $5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 represent the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items discussed above, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets during the period ($8 million). Adjustments of $33 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, represent the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items discussed above and the reversal of tax expense that was previously stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income due to an interest rate swap settlement ($17 million), partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets during the period ($24 million).

 

(5) 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we reported a GAAP net loss and thus potential dilutive common shares were not assumed to have been issued since their effect is anti-dilutive. During the same period, we reported non-GAAP net income. As a result, potential dilutive common shares would not have an anti-dilutive effect, and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of calculating adjusted EPS include 3.6 million of common stock equivalents.

For the periods presented, we have not made adjustments for all items that may be considered unrelated to our long-term operations. We believe adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and its reconciliation to net income, enhances investors' understanding of our performance, valuation and prospects for the future. We also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure used in the animal health industry by analysts as a valuable performance metric for investors. The following is a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net income three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue, for the respective periods:
