Positive
  • Q3 sales grew 9% (10% constant currency)
  • TMTT sales showed strong growth of 73%
  • TAVR sales reached $1.0 billion, growing 6%
  • Gross profit margin improved to 80.7% vs 79.9% last year

Negative
  • Increased SG&A expenses to 31.1% of sales vs prior year

  • Hospitals reporting heart team capacity constraints nationally

Insights

The Q3 results show mixed performance with some encouraging trends. TAVR sales of $1.0 billion grew 6%, while TMTT sales demonstrated impressive growth of 73%. The adjusted EPS of $0.67 slightly exceeded guidance expectations.

The company maintains a strong financial position with $3.5 billion in cash and relatively low debt of $600 million. The 80.7% adjusted gross margin shows improved operational efficiency compared to last year. The strategic divestment of Critical Care and aggressive share repurchase program of $1.0 billion demonstrates active capital management.

The maintained full-year guidance of 8-10% sales growth and Q4 revenue guidance of $1.33-1.39 billion suggests management's confidence in sustained growth trajectory despite hospital capacity constraints.

The completion of CLASP IITR trial enrollment and upcoming presentations of EARLY TAVR and TRISCEND II trial results at TCT mark significant clinical milestones. The PASCAL and EVOQUE systems' commercial progress, coupled with CE Mark approval for the Alterra system, demonstrates strong pipeline execution.

The expansion into multiple structural heart treatments - aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation and mitral/tricuspid disease - positions Edwards well in the growing transcatheter market. The SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve's continued European rollout and positive patient outcomes strengthen the company's competitive position.

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW) today reported financial results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2024.

Highlights and Outlook

  • Q3 sales from continuing operations grew 9%; constant currency1 sales grew 10%
  • Q3 TAVR sales grew 6%; constant currency1 sales grew 7%
  • TMTT sales grew 73%; PASCAL and EVOQUE commercial launches continue to progress well
  • Q3 EPS of $5.13; adjusted1 EPS of $0.67
  • Completed sale of Critical Care in Q3, resulting in significant one-time gain
  • Pivotal TAVR and TMTT clinical evidence to be presented next week at TCT
  • Completed enrollment in CLASP IITR trial for PASCAL tricuspid
  • First implants in the JOURNEY pivotal trial with the Edwards J-Valve AR system
  • Reiterated 2024 full year sales guidance ranges for total company, TAVR, TMTT and Surgical

“In the third quarter, we took important actions to sharpen our focus on structural heart by divesting Critical Care and investing in platforms to impact more patients and position Edwards for sustainable growth," said Bernard Zovighian, CEO. “Third quarter total company sales growth from continuing operations of 10% reflected strong contributions from both TAVR and our rapidly growing TMTT product group. Results from continuing operations were slightly ahead of our guidance expectations. As we look ahead, we see expanded opportunities to meet the needs of a highly diverse group of patients suffering from aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, mitral and tricuspid disease, and structural heart failure.”

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)

In the third quarter, the company reported TAVR sales of $1.0 billion, which grew 6%. Edwards’ strong competitive position and pricing remained stable globally.

In the U.S., Edwards’ year-over-year third quarter TAVR sales growth rate was in-line with the company’s global TAVR constant currency growth rate. Although hospitals and physicians continue to acknowledge heart team capacity constraints nationally, it is encouraging that many hospitals are exploring additional investments to address future workflow needs to manage these patients. In Europe, the company continues its introduction of the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve and continues to be pleased with the exceptional patient outcomes. Additionally, Edwards received CE Mark approval for its Alterra system for congenital heart patients. The company believes this will result in quality-of-life improvements and a reduction in the number of procedures that these younger patients will require over their lifetimes.

Next week at TCT, the clinical community will hear results from the EARLY TAVR trial. The trial is the first and largest randomized controlled trial to date studying asymptomatic severe AS patients and the impact of early intervention with TAVR.

Transcatheter Mitral and Tricuspid Therapies (TMTT)

Edwards’ pipeline of unique innovations, including the PASCAL repair system, the EVOQUE tricuspid replacement system, and the SAPIEN M3 mitral replacement system, provide a broad set of treatment options.​ Edwards is committed to investing in and commercializing multiple breakthrough therapies for repairing and replacing mitral and tricuspid valves to serve the many patients in need.

Third quarter sales were $91 million, led by the PASCAL system and the continued introduction of the EVOQUE system in the U.S. and Europe. The adoption of the differentiated PASCAL technology is expanding in both new and existing sites around the world. Two-year outcomes of the CLASP IID pivotal trial studying patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation will be presented at the TCT conference next week. Edwards also announced the completion of enrollment in the CLASP II TR trial, studying patients with tricuspid regurgitation treated with the PASCAL system randomized against optimal medical therapy alone.

The EVOQUE launch continues to progress well, as the company successfully activates new sites in both the U.S. and Europe. The strong physician interest in this therapy continues to highlight the large unmet patient need. The full 400 patient cohort of the TRISCEND II pivotal study at one year is scheduled for presentation during the late-breaking clinical trial sessions at TCT next week.

Surgical Structural Heart

In Surgical Structural Heart, third quarter sales from continuing operations of $240 million increased 5% over the prior year on a constant currency basis. Growth was driven by strong global adoption of Edwards’ premium surgical technologies, specifically the INSPIRIS, MITRIS and KONECT devices. The company continues to see positive procedure growth globally for the many patients best treated surgically, including those undergoing complex procedures.

Additional Financial Results

For the quarter, the adjusted gross profit margin was 80.7%, compared to 79.9% in the same period last year. The company expects Q4 gross margin to be in-line with the high end of its 76% to 78% full-year guidance range.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the third quarter were $421 million, or 31.1% of sales, compared to $382 million in the prior year. This increase was driven by an expansion of field-based personnel to support growth of the company's transcatheter therapies, including the launch and rollout of the PASCAL and EVOQUE systems.

Research and development expenses increased 4% in the third quarter to $253 million, or 18.7% of sales. This increase was primarily the result of continued investments in the company's transcatheter valve innovations, including increased clinical trial activity.

Edwards' adjusted Earnings Per Share was $0.67, slightly ahead of what the company modeled for Q3 guidance provided in July.

Cash and cash equivalents was approximately $3.5 billion as of Sept. 30, 2024. Total debt was approximately $600 million. During the third quarter, the company repurchased $1.0 billion of stock through a combination of accelerated share repurchase programs and pre-established trading plans. Edwards currently has approximately $1.4 billion remaining under its current share repurchase authorization.

Outlook

Edwards' full year sales growth guidance of 8 to 10% remains unchanged, as does the company's guidance for its three product groups. Edwards expects fourth quarter sales of $1.33 to $1.39 billion, and Q4 EPS of $0.53 to $0.57.

EDWARDS LIFESCIENCES CORPORATION
Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses non-GAAP historical financial measures. Management makes adjustments to the GAAP measures for items (both charges and gains) that (a) do not reflect the core operational activities of the Company, (b) are commonly adjusted within the Company’s industry to enhance comparability of the Company’s financial results with those of its peer group, or (c) are inconsistent in amount or frequency between periods (albeit such items are monitored and controlled with equal diligence relative to core operations). The Company uses the terms "adjusted" and “constant currency" when referring to non-GAAP sales from continuing operations and sales growth information, respectively, which excludes currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company uses the term “adjusted” to also exclude certain litigation expenses, intellectual property agreements, amortization of intangible assets, fair value adjustments to contingent consideration liabilities arising from acquisitions, restructuring expenses, a gain on remeasurement of a previously held interest upon acquisition, and a charitable contribution to the Edwards Lifesciences Foundation.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results, and evaluating current performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations by investors that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business and facilitate comparability to historical periods.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies and should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP historical financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure is provided in the tables below.

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates impact the comparative results and sales growth rates of the Company's underlying business. Management believes that excluding the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations from its sales growth provides investors a more useful comparison to historical financial results. The impact of the fluctuations has been detailed in the "Reconciliation of Sales by Product Group and Region."

Guidance for sales and sales growth rates is provided on a "constant currency basis," and projections for diluted earnings per share, net income and growth, gross profit margin, taxes, and free cash flow are also provided on a non-GAAP basis, as adjusted, for the items identified above due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting such items without unreasonable efforts. The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance to comparable GAAP measures due to the unknown effect, timing, and potential significance of special charges or gains, and management's inability to forecast charges associated with future transactions and initiatives.

Management considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure which provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by business operations, after deducting payments for capital expenditures, which can then be used for strategic opportunities or other business purposes including, among others, investing in the Company's business, making strategic acquisitions, strengthening the balance sheet, and repurchasing stock.

The items described below are adjustments to the GAAP financial results in the reconciliations that follow:

Certain Litigation Expenses - The Company incurred certain litigation expenses of $8.9 million and $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, $8.1 million and $8.9 million in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $10.8 million and $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Amortization of Intangible Assets - The Company recorded amortization expense related to developed technology and patents in the amount of $0.5 million and $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, $1.2 million and $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.3 million and $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Restructuring Expenses - The Company recorded a $32.9 million charge in the third quarter of 2024 primarily related to severance expenses associated with a global workforce realignment.

Charitable Foundation Contribution - The Company recorded a $30.0 million charge in Other Operating Expenses, net in the third quarter of 2024 for a charitable contribution to the Edwards Lifesciences Foundation.

Gain on Remeasurement of Previously Held Interest Upon Acquisition - The Company recorded a $24.6 million gain in the third quarter of 2024 to remeasure its previously held interest upon acquisition of the investee.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration Liabilities - The Company recorded expense of $0.7 million and a gain of $26.9 million in the first and second quarter of 2023, respectively, related to changes in the fair value of its contingent consideration liabilities arising from acquisitions.

Intellectual Property Agreement - The Company recorded a $37.0 million charge and a $139.0 million charge in the first and second quarter of 2023, respectively, related to an Intellectual Property Agreement with Medtronic, Inc. for a 15-year covenant not to sue.

Provision for Income Taxes - The income tax impacts of the expenses and gains discussed above are based upon the items' forecasted effect upon the Company's full year effective tax rate. Adjustments to forecasted items unrelated to the expenses and gains above, as well as impacts related to interim reporting, will have an effect on the income tax impact of these items in subsequent periods.
