ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Patterson Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: PDCO) today reported consolidated net sales of $1.72 billion (see attached Sales Summary for further details) in its fiscal fourth quarter ended April 29, 2023, an increase of 5.0 percent compared to the same period last year. Internal sales, which are adjusted for the effects of currency translation and contributions from recent acquisitions, increased 5.7 percent over the prior year period.

Reported net income attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc. for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $75.0 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, compared to $63.9 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted net income¹ attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc., which excludes deal amortization and gains on investments, totaled $82.4 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, or $0.84 per diluted share, compared to $70.4 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The year-over-year increase in reported and adjusted net income attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc. in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 is primarily due to increased sales of dental equipment and value-added services and operating margin expansion in both business segments. Both reported and adjusted net income in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter contained a one-time gain of $3.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share related to the sale of a real estate asset.

“Patterson had an incredibly strong fourth quarter, concluding a fiscal year in which we achieved our goals of delivering year-over-year internal sales growth and adjusted operating margin expansion for the business overall and across our Dental and Animal Health segments,” said Don Zurbay, President and CEO of Patterson Companies. “Our results demonstrate our team’s outstanding performance throughout fiscal 2023, and the impact of our ongoing initiatives to deepen the value proposition we offer customers and drive margin expansion through improved mix and greater operational efficiency. As we enter fiscal 2024, we remain focused on executing our proven strategy and building upon our momentum to deliver continued growth and value creation.”

Patterson Dental
Reported net sales in the Dental segment for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were $683.5 million. Internal sales increased 8.0 percent compared to the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter. Internal sales of consumables increased 0.3 percent year-over-year, impacted by the continued moderation of infection control products compared to the pandemic-related performance in the year-ago period. Excluding infection control products, internal sales of consumables increased 4.4 percent year-over-year. Compared to the prior year period, internal sales of equipment increased 19.2 percent driven by strength across all product categories. Internal sales of value-added services increased 13.4 percent.

Patterson Animal Health
Reported net sales in the Animal Health segment for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were $1.03 billion. Internal sales growth of 3.2 percent year-over-year was driven by sales growth in the companion animal business. Compared to the prior year period, internal sales of consumables grew 2.4 percent, equipment increased 16.7 percent and value-added services increased 52.6 percent.

Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation
During fiscal 2023, Patterson Companies used $754.9 million of cash from operating activities and collected deferred purchase price receivables of $998.9 million, generating $244.1 million in cash, compared to generating $232.5 million during fiscal 2022. Free cash flow¹ (see definition below and attached free cash flow table) during fiscal 2023 declined by $14.4 million compared to the fiscal 2022 period due to an increased level of capital spending during fiscal 2023.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, Patterson Companies declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per share and returned $25.4 million in cash dividends to shareholders. Also, under an existing repurchase authorization, the company repurchased approximately 1.5 million shares during the fiscal fourth quarter. At of the end of fiscal 2023, Patterson had approximately $410 million of share repurchase authority remaining on its current share repurchase authorization. During fiscal 2023, Patterson Companies returned $156.8 million to shareholders in the form of cash dividends and share repurchases.

Fiscal 2023 Full Year Results
Consolidated reported net sales for fiscal 2023 totaled $6.5 billion, a 0.4 percent year-over-year decrease. Sales in fiscal 2022 reflected an extra week of sales results in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Internal sales for fiscal 2023, which are adjusted for the effects of currency translation, the extra week of selling results in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and contributions from recent acquisitions, increased 2.9 percent year-over-year. Fiscal 2023 Dental segment internal sales increased 1.3 percent, including a 2.1 percent decline in consumables, a 4.9 percent increase in equipment and an 8.1 percent increase in value-added services. Fiscal 2023 Animal Health segment internal sales increased 3.4 percent, including 3.1 percent growth in consumables, 6.8 percent growth in equipment and a 24.4 percent increase in value-added services.

Reported net income attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc. in fiscal 2023 was $207.6 million, or $2.12 per diluted share, compared to $203.2 million, or $2.06 per diluted share in fiscal 2022. Adjusted net income¹ attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc., which excludes deal amortization, integration and business restructuring expenses, legal reserves, inventory donation charges and gains on investments totaled $236.4 million in fiscal 2023, or $2.42 per diluted share, compared to $223.7 million, or $2.27 per diluted share in the prior year.

Fiscal 2024 Guidance
Patterson Companies today initiated its fiscal 2024 earnings guidance, which is provided on both a GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted¹ basis:

• GAAP earnings are expected to be in the range of $2.14 to $2.24 per diluted share.
• Non-GAAP adjusted earnings¹ are expected to be in the range of $2.45 to $2.55 per diluted share.
• Our non-GAAP adjusted earnings¹ guidance excludes the after-tax impact of:
  • Deal amortization expenses of approximately $29.3 million ($0.31 per diluted share).

Our guidance reflects the strength of our business and competitive positioning, as well as our expectations for the North American and international end markets in which we operate, which we expect to be affected by the ongoing challenges of inflationary trends and higher interest rates as well as a potential slow-down in the broader economy. Beyond macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, our guidance further assumes that there are no material adverse developments associated with wide-spread public health concerns.

¹Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Measures table appearing behind the accompanying financial information is provided to adjust reported GAAP measures, namely operating income, other income (expense), net income before taxes, income tax expense, net income, net income attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc. and diluted earnings per share attributable to Patterson Companies, Inc., for the impact of deal amortization, integration and business restructuring expenses, legal reserves, inventory donation charges and gains on investments along with the related tax effects of these items.

The term “free cash flow” used in this release is defined as net cash used in operating activities less capital expenditures plus the collection of deferred purchase price receivables.

In addition, the term “internal sales” used in this release represents net sales adjusted to exclude the impact of foreign currency, the extra week of selling results in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and the impact from recent acquisitions. Foreign currency impact represents the difference in results that is attributable to fluctuations in currency exchange rates the company uses to convert results for all foreign entities where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. The company calculates the impact as the difference between the current period results translated using the current period currency exchange rates and using the comparable prior period's currency exchange rates. The company believes the disclosure of net sales changes in constant currency provides useful supplementary information to investors in light of fluctuations in currency rates.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures may provide a helpful representation of the company's fourth quarter performance and enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented solely for informational and comparative purposes and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding, similarly captioned, GAAP measures.

Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements.

Any number of factors could affect our actual results and cause such results to differ materially from those contemplated by any forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: wide-spread public health concerns as we experienced, and may continue to experience, with the COVID-19 pandemic; our dependence on suppliers to manufacture and supply substantially all of the products we sell; potential disruption of distribution capabilities, including service issues with third-party shippers; our dependence on relationships with sales representatives and service technicians to retain customers and develop business; adverse changes in supplier rebates or other purchasing incentives; risks of selling private label products, including the risk of adversely affecting our relationships with suppliers; the risk of technological and market obsolescence for the products we sell; the risk of failing to innovate and develop new and enhanced software and e-services products; our dependence on positive perceptions of Patterson’s reputation; risks associated with illicit human use of pharmaceutical products we distribute; risks inherent in acquiring and disposing of assets or other businesses and risks inherent in integrating acquired businesses; turnover or loss of key personnel or highly skilled employees; risks associated with information systems, software products and cyber-security attacks; risks related to climate change; our ability to comply with restrictive covenants and other limits in our credit agreement; the risk that our governing documents and Minnesota law may discourage takeovers and business combinations; the effects of the highly competitive dental and animal health supply markets in which we compete; the effects of consolidation within the dental and animal health supply markets; exposure to the risks of the animal production business, including changing consumer demand, the cyclical livestock market, weather conditions, the availability of natural resources and other factors outside our control, and the risks of the companion animal business, including the possibility of disease adversely affecting the pet population; exposure to the risks of the health care industry, including changes in demand due to political, economic and regulatory influences and other factors outside our control; increases in over-the-counter sales and e-commerce options; risks from the formation or expansion of GPOs, provider networks and buying groups that may place us at a competitive disadvantage; risks of litigation and government inquiries and investigations, including the diversion of management’s attention, the cost of defending against such actions, the possibility of damage awards or settlements, fines or penalties, or equitable remedies (including but not limited to the revocation of or non-renewal of licenses) and inherent uncertainty; failure to comply with health care fraud or other laws and regulations; change and uncertainty in the health care industry; failure to comply with existing or future U.S. or foreign laws and regulations including those governing the distribution of pharmaceuticals and controlled substances; failure to comply with evolving data privacy laws and regulations; tax legislation; risks inherent in international operations, including currency fluctuations; and uncertain macro-economic conditions, including inflationary pressures.
