Insights

Financial Analyst

The preliminary Q2 FY2025 results reveal significant challenges for Neogen. The $456.3 million net loss, primarily due to goodwill impairment from the 3M Food Safety acquisition, signals integration difficulties and potential overvaluation of the acquired assets. Core revenue growth of 3.5% shows modest improvement, but margin pressure persists with Adjusted EBITDA margin declining to 22.2% from 24.0% year-over-year. The material weaknesses in internal controls raise governance concerns. The reduced guidance, with revenue now expected between $905-925 million, reflects ongoing operational challenges and FX headwinds. The debt position of $900 million against $140.2 million cash requires monitoring, though the $150 million borrowing headroom provides some flexibility.

Market Research Analyst

The Food Safety segment's performance reflects broader industry dynamics, with core growth of 3.6% despite challenging market conditions. Recent food contamination incidents are driving increased regulatory scrutiny, potentially benefiting Neogen's long-term market position. The Animal Safety segment shows resilience with 3.2% core growth despite being at a cyclical low, suggesting potential upside as the cycle turns. The genomics business decline in companion animal markets, offset by growth in beef and dairy, indicates shifting market dynamics. The restructuring initiatives, particularly in the Genomics business, demonstrate management's commitment to operational efficiency, though near-term costs impact margins.

Operations Expert

The operational challenges are evident in the logistics and distribution cost increases, impacting margins and integration progress of the 3M Food Safety business. The sample collection production delays and transition service agreement exits are creating near-term headwinds. The planned $85 million capital expenditure, including $55 million for 3M Food Safety integration, suggests significant operational transformation ahead. The material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting are particularly concerning, indicating potential systemic issues in operational processes and information systems that need immediate attention for sustainable long-term performance.

LANSING, Mich., Jan. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Neogen Corporation (NASDAQ: NEOG) announced today the preliminary results of the second quarter ended November 30, 2024.

"The second quarter reflected steady progress, as we saw improvement across the business compared to the first quarter, with core revenue growth accelerating in both of our segments, sequential margin expansion and significantly better free cash flow," said John Adent, Neogen's President and Chief Executive Officer. "In our Food Safety segment, we did see continued gradual improvement in the end market as it works through largely unprecedented times stemming from the significant inflation in food prices and resulting lower levels of food production. This gradual end-market improvement has coincided with what we see as an increasing focus on food safety from both regulators and consumers, driven in part by numerous recent food contamination incidents. While we're not reliant on the regulatory environment to drive growth, the increased regulatory interest highlights not only the importance of food safety overall, but also the room for improvement that exists. In our Animal Safety segment, we saw a significant improvement in core revenue growth from the first quarter despite the end market being around what we believe is a cyclical low point. Inventory levels in the distribution channel appear to be low, but we are encouraged by the growth in sales of our products out of the channel in the quarter."            

Adent continued, "While our primary focus has shifted to winning in the market, we have also undertaken actions to accelerate the building of a more profitable, focused Neogen. During the second quarter, we initiated restructuring actions focused mainly on rightsizing our Genomics business to focus our end-market exposure and streamline our operations. We expect these actions, combined with cost reductions related to our logistics operations, to support continued margin improvement in the second half of the fiscal year. We have also entered the next phase of portfolio review with specific projects actively underway and will evaluate any potential opportunities that arise to drive a higher level of focus in the business and improved profitability. The significant progress we've made notwithstanding, the integration of the former 3M Food Safety business has been slowed by a combination of end-market weakness and operational delays. We continue to have full confidence in the post-integration prospects of the business and, with the food safety end market showing gradual improvement and our share recapture progressing well, we intend to build on the progress we made in the second quarter in building Neogen for the future and positioning the company to win in the market."

Financial and Business Highlights

Revenues for the second quarter were $231.3 million, an increase of 0.7% compared to $229.6 million in the prior year. Core revenue², which excludes the impacts of foreign currency translation, as well as acquisitions completed and product lines discontinued in the last 12 months, increased by 3.5%. Acquisitions and discontinued product lines had a negative impact of 0.3% while foreign currency had a negative impact of 2.5%.

Net loss for the second quarter was $456.3 million, or $(2.10) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $3.5 million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, in the prior-year period, with the current-year net loss driven by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge related primarily to the acquisition of the former 3M Food Safety Division. Adjusted Net Income was $24.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to $24.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. The slight decline in Adjusted Net Income was driven primarily by the lower level of operating income, mostly offset by a more favorable effective tax rate.

Gross margin was 49.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. This compares to a gross margin of 50.9% in the same quarter a year ago, with the decrease mainly due to restructuring costs. Excluding integration and restructuring costs, gross margin was 52.2% in the second quarter compared to 52.3% in the prior-year quarter.

Second-quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $51.4 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 22.2%, compared to $55.1 million and a margin of 24.0% in the prior-year period. The decline in Adjusted EBITDA Margin was driven primarily by the full cost to exit the various transition service agreements that had been in place, including higher distribution costs.

Food Safety Segment

Revenues for the Food Safety segment were $164.2 million in the second quarter, a decrease of 0.1% compared to $164.4 million in the prior year, consisting of 3.6% core growth, a negative 0.1% impact from discontinued product lines and a negative foreign currency impact of 3.6%. The core growth was driven largely by a solid performance in the biosecurity and bacterial & general sanitation product categories. In the indicator testing, culture media & other product category, solid growth in food quality, culture media and Petrifilm was partially offset by a decline in sample collection. Within the natural toxins & allergens product category, modest growth in allergens was partially offset by a slight decline in natural toxins.

Animal Safety Segment

Revenues for the Animal Safety segment were $67.0 million in the second quarter, an increase of 2.8% compared to $65.2 million in the prior year, consisting of a 3.2% core growth, a favorable 0.3% foreign currency impact and a negative 0.7% impact from discontinued product lines. The growth was led by the biosecurity and animal care & other product categories, particularly rodent control biologics and wound care products.

On a global basis, the Company's Genomics business experienced a core revenue decline in the mid-single-digit range. Increased sales in U.S. and international beef and dairy markets were offset by lower sales in the companion animal market.

Internal Controls

As a result of management's assessment of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, the Company concluded that, as of November 30, 2024, the Company had deficiencies in the control activities and information and communication components of the COSO Framework that constitute material weaknesses. More information regarding these control deficiencies and the material weakness will be contained within the Company's Form 10-Q to be filed for the quarter ended November 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of November 30, 2024, the Company had total cash of $140.2 million and total outstanding non-current debt of $900.0 million, as well as committed borrowing headroom of $150.0 million.

Preliminary Nature of Reported Results

The information provided in this release is preliminary in nature because the analysis of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge described above has not been completed. The Company does not currently expect the estimated amount of that charge to change; however, the preliminary results presented in this release are subject to change as the Company finalizes its condensed consolidated financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company expects to file its Form 10-Q for such quarter by Wednesday, January 15, 2025.

Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook

The Company is updating its full-year outlook. Primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and, to a lesser degree, a delay in the ramp-up of sample collection production and the voluntary attrition of genomics revenue related to restructuring activities, revenue is now expected to be in the range of $905 million to $925 million. Adjusted EBITDA is now expected to be in the range of $205 million to $215 million, primarily reflecting the impact of lower revenue and higher shipping and distribution costs. The Company continues to expect capital expenditures 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. The following description of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release, as well as the information included within the reconciliation tables on the pages that follow, refer to GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures on a preliminary, expected basis only.

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 period-over-period. 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 period-over-period.

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 first-year 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 used in this press release to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company is not presenting a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, Adjusted EBITDA, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Net Income (Loss), because it is impractical to forecast certain items without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting, within a reasonable range, the occurrence and financial impact of and the periods in which such items may be recognized, including adjustments that are made for future changes in foreign exchange and the other adjustments reflected in our reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures, the amounts of which could be material.
