Positive
  • Full-year revenue increased by 12.4% to $924.2 million
  • Improvement in order fulfillment rates throughout the quarter
  • Core revenue growth of 4.3% in the Food Safety segment
  • Strong growth in Petrifilm, culture media, and food quality products
  • Solid growth in veterinary instruments from increased demand for detectable needles and syringes
Negative
  • Fourth-quarter revenue decreased by 2.1% to $236.8 million
  • Net loss of $5.4 million in the fourth quarter, compared to net income of $5.6 million in the prior-year period
  • Gross margin decreased to 47.9% from 50.9% in the same quarter a year ago
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin declined to 22.4% from 26.1% in the prior-year period
  • Core revenue decline of 3.3% in the Animal Safety segment

Neogen's Q4 2024 results reveal a mixed financial picture. The company reported $236.8 million in revenue, a 2.1% decrease year-over-year, with a net loss of $5.4 million. However, the adjusted net income of $22.4 million and adjusted EBITDA of $53.0 million suggest underlying operational strength despite challenges.

Key points to consider:

  • The company's core revenue declined by 2.0%, indicating some weakness in organic growth.
  • Gross margin contracted to 47.9% from 50.9% in the prior year, primarily due to integration costs and inventory adjustments.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 22.4% from 26.1%, reflecting pressure on profitability.
  • The Food Safety segment showed resilience with 4.3% core growth, offset by currency headwinds.
  • The Animal Safety segment faced challenges with a 3.3% core revenue decline.

Looking ahead, Neogen's FY2025 outlook of $925 million to $955 million in revenue and $215 million to $235 million in adjusted EBITDA suggests cautious optimism. The projected mid-single-digit core revenue growth indicates expected market improvements, but investors should monitor the company's ability to execute its integration strategy and improve margins.

Neogen's Q4 results reflect broader market trends and integration challenges. The company's performance in different segments provides insights into current industry dynamics:

  • Food Safety segment's 4.3% core growth, particularly in Indicator Testing and Culture Media, suggests a gradual recovery in food production volumes.
  • The decline in natural toxin test kit sales due to product availability issues highlights ongoing supply chain challenges in the industry.
  • Animal Safety segment's 3.3% core revenue decline indicates continued softness in certain animal health markets.
  • Growth in detectable needles and syringes points to increasing focus on safety in veterinary practices.
  • The strategic shift towards larger production animals in the Genomics business reflects changing priorities in the livestock industry.

Neogen's outlook for FY2025, projecting mid-single-digit core revenue growth, aligns with expectations of a slow, gradual improvement in end-market conditions. However, the anticipated foreign currency headwind underscores the ongoing challenges of global market volatility. Investors should closely monitor industry trends, particularly in food production and animal health, as indicators of Neogen's future performance.

  • Revenue of $236.8 million.
  • Net loss of $5.4 million; $(0.02) per diluted share.
  • Adjusted Net Income of $22.4 million; $0.10 per diluted share.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $53.0 million.

LANSING, Mich., July 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Neogen Corporation (NASDAQ: NEOG) announced today the results of the fourth quarter ended May 31, 2024.

"After crossing multiple significant integration milestones in the third quarter related to the integration of the former 3M Food Safety business, progress continued on multiple fronts in the fourth quarter," said John Adent, Neogen's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We completed the relocation of the sample handling product line, which we expect to have running at full production by the end of the first quarter. We also saw improvement in our order fulfillment rates throughout the quarter, which have subsequently improved to the point where they are no longer a constraint."      

Adent continued, "End-market conditions remained soft, but stable compared to the third quarter. With respect to Food Safety specifically, where food production volumes were still mostly down on a year-over-year basis, we are expecting a trend of slow, gradual improvement over the course of the fiscal year. The progress we've made on resolving our shipping challenges has allowed our commercial teams to focus on what they do best – demand generation – leveraging the broadest product portfolio in the industry and Neogen's reputation for consultative customer service, along with the expected improvement in the end-market backdrop. While we still have work ahead of us, the peak capital expenditure and working capital outflows related to the integration are behind us. As a result of our significant integration progress, we're able to focus on driving improvements in the combined operations and are looking forward to leveraging the full capabilities of our business in what we expect to be an unconstrained operating environment in fiscal 2025."

Financial and Business Highlights

Revenues for the fourth quarter were $236.8 million, a decrease of 2.1% compared to $241.8 million in the prior year. Core revenue, which excludes the impacts of foreign currency translation, as well as acquisitions completed and product lines discontinued in the last 12 months, was 2.0%. Acquisitions and discontinued product lines contributed 0.1%, while foreign currency had a negative impact of 4.2%.

Revenues for the full year were $924.2 million, an increase of 12.4% compared to $822.4 million in the prior year. Core revenue growth was 1.8%. Acquisitions and discontinued product lines contributed 11.9%, while foreign currency was a headwind of 1.3%.

Net loss for the fourth quarter was $5.4 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. Adjusted Net Income was $22.4 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to $30.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the prior-year period, with the decline driven primarily by lower Adjusted EBITDA. 

Net loss for the full year was $9.4 million, or $(0.04) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $22.9 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted Net Income for the full year was $97.4 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $105.7 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, in the prior year.

Gross margin, expressed as a percentage of sales, was 47.9% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. This compares to a gross margin of 50.9% in the same quarter a year ago, with the decrease primarily due to costs incurred related to the exit of the transition service agreements, including a higher level of inventory adjustments.

Gross margin for the full year was 50.2% compared to a gross margin of 49.4% in the prior year.

Fourth-quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $53.0 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 22.4%, compared to $63.1 million and a margin of 26.1% in the prior-year period. The lower Adjusted EBITDA Margin was primarily the result of the decline in gross margin.

Full-year Adjusted EBITDA was $213.2 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.1% compared to $205.4 million and a margin of 25.0% in the prior year.

Food Safety Segment

Revenues for the Food Safety segment were $166.9 million in the fourth quarter, a decrease of 1.4% compared to $169.3 million in the prior year, consisting of 4.3% core growth, a 0.2% contribution from acquisitions and discontinued product lines and a negative foreign currency impact of 5.9%. The core revenue growth was led by the Indicator Testing, Culture Media & Other product category, which benefited from strong growth in Petrifilm, as well as in culture media and food quality and nutritional analysis products. In the Company's Bacterial & General Sanitation product category, growth in pathogen detection and general sanitation products was partially offset by a decline in sales of microbiological products, largely the result of higher equipment sales in the prior-year quarter. Within the Natural Toxins & Allergens product category, modest growth in allergens was offset by a decline in sales of natural toxin test kits, due largely to product availability issues.

For the full year, revenues for the Food Safety segment were $655.3 million, an increase of 19.9% compared to $546.8 million in the prior year, consisting of core growth of 3.7%, 18.0% from acquisitions and a foreign currency headwind of 1.8%.

Animal Safety Segment

Revenues for the Animal Safety segment were $69.9 million in the fourth quarter, a decrease of 3.7% compared to $72.5 million in the prior year, consisting of a 3.3% core revenue decline, a 0.3% headwind from discontinued product lines and negative foreign currency impact of 0.1%. In the Veterinary Instruments & Disposables product category, solid growth in veterinary instruments from increased demand for detectable needles and syringes was partially offset by a compare-driven decline in other animal safety products. Growth in the Company's Animal Care & Other product category was driven by higher sales of vitamin injectables and biologics products. In the Company's portfolio of biosecurity products, strong growth in insect control products was offset by declines in cleaners and disinfectants and rodent control products due largely to strong growth in the prior-year quarter and the timing of shipments. 

On a global basis, the Company's Genomics business experienced a core revenue decline in the mid-single-digit range. Increased sales in international beef markets were offset by the impact of customer attrition in the U.S., a result of the shift in strategic focus towards larger production animals.

For the full year, revenues for the Animal Safety segment were $268.9 million, a decrease of 2.5% compared to $275.7 million in the prior year, consisting of a core revenue decline of 2.0%, a 0.2% headwind from discontinued product lines and negative foreign currency impact of 0.3%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of May 31, 2024, the Company had total cash and investments of $170.9 million and total outstanding non-current debt of $900.0 million, as well as committed borrowing headroom of $150.0 million.

Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook

The Company is initiating its full-year outlook for fiscal year 2025. Revenue is expected to be $925 million to $955 million, reflecting core revenue growth in the mid-single-digit range, offset primarily by an anticipated foreign currency headwind. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be $215 million to $235 million, while capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $85 million, including approximately $55 million related specifically to the integration of the former 3M Food Safety Division.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, which management believes are useful to investors, securities analysts and other interested parties. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key profitability measure. This is a non-GAAP measure that represents EBITDA before certain items that impact comparison of the performance of our business, either period-over-period or with other businesses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA for a particular period expressed as a percentage of revenues for that period.

Management uses Adjusted Net Income as an additional measure of profitability. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP measure that represents net income before certain items that impact comparison of the performance of our business, either period-over-period or with other businesses.

Core revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure that represents net sales for the period excluding the effects of foreign currency translation rates and the impacts of acquisitions and discontinued product lines, where applicable. Core revenue growth is presented to allow for a meaningful comparison of year-over-year performance without the volatility caused by foreign currency translation rates, or the incomparability that would be caused by the impact of an acquisition, disposal or product line discontinuation.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Please see below for a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
