Insights

Thermo Fisher Scientific's financials from Q2 2024 reveal a mixed but interesting picture for investors. The company’s revenue slightly declined by 1 to $10.54 billion compared to the second quarter of 2023. However, the GAAP diluted EPS increased by 15% to $4.04 and the adjusted EPS increased by 4% to $5.37. These figures suggest that while revenue growth has slowed, the company has managed to improve profitability. The increase in GAAP operating margin to 17.3% from 14.8% also indicates strong operational efficiency.

Investors should note the mixed signals: the overall revenue decline and flat core organic revenue growth could be a concern, particularly in a competitive market. However, Thermo Fisher’s ability to increase EPS and operating margins shows the company is capitalizing on cost efficiencies and strategic initiatives. The slight raise in the full-year revenue guidance (new range: $42.4 to $43.3 billion) and EPS guidance (new range: $21.29 to $22.07) should give some optimism for sustained growth.

Thermo Fisher’s advancements in their product lines, particularly in mass spectrometry, are noteworthy. The launch of the Thermo Scientific ™ Stellar™ mass spectrometer and new editions of the Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Ascend Tribrid™ mass spectrometer for specific applications like MultiOmics, Structural Biology and BioPharma, indicate a strong emphasis on innovation. These products could significantly enhance their competitive edge by offering more precise and tailored solutions for scientific research.
The development of plant-based bioprocessing containers and ENERGY STAR-certified freezers aligns with industry trends toward sustainability and energy efficiency. These initiatives might strengthen Thermo Fisher’s market position and appeal to customers prioritizing sustainable solutions.

Thermo Fisher’s strategic moves, such as the expansion of clinical trial supply services and new facilities in the Netherlands and Pennsylvania, indicate a clear effort to bolster their operational capabilities and global reach. This can support faster drug development and innovation in biotechnology, making them a more reliable partner in the industry.
The completion of the Olink acquisition is also a major strategic step, enhancing their capabilities in proteomic research. This acquisition could provide avenues for new revenue streams and reinforce their leadership in precision medicine.
However, investors should consider the stagnant core organic revenue growth and the minimal increase in full-year financial guidance. These factors might imply limited short-term growth potential despite the company's strategic advancements.

Adjusted results in 2023 also exclude $26 of contract termination costs associated with facility closures.

(d) Adjusted results in 2024 and 2023 exclude net gains/losses on investments.

(e) Adjusted results in 2024 and 2023 exclude incremental tax impacts for the reconciling items between GAAP and adjusted net income, incremental tax impacts as a result of tax rate/law changes, and the tax impacts from audit settlements.

(f) Adjusted results exclude the incremental impacts for the reconciling items between GAAP and adjusted net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Note:

Consolidated depreciation expense is $276 and $270 in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures such as organic revenue growth, which is reported revenue growth, excluding the impacts of acquisitions/divestitures and the effects of currency translation. We also report Core organic revenue growth, which is reported revenue growth, excluding the impacts of COVID-19 testing revenue, and excluding the impacts of acquisitions/divestitures and the effects of currency translation. We report these measures because Thermo Fisher management believes that in order to understand the company’s short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of acquisitions/divestitures, foreign currency translation and/or COVID-19 testing on revenues. Thermo Fisher management uses these measures to forecast and evaluate the operational performance of the company as well as to compare revenues of current periods to prior periods.

We report adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, helps investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the company’s core operating performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods, forecasts, and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. To calculate these measures we exclude, as applicable:

  • Certain acquisition-related costs, including charges for the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition, significant transaction/acquisition-related costs, including changes in estimates of contingent acquisition-related consideration, and other costs associated with obtaining short-term financing commitments for pending/recent acquisitions. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.
  • Costs/income associated with restructuring activities and large-scale abandonments of product lines, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We exclude these costs because we believe that the costs related to restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.
  • Equity in earnings/losses of unconsolidated entities; impairments of long-lived assets; and certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, including gains/losses on investments, the sale of businesses, product lines, and real estate, significant litigation-related matters, curtailments/settlements of pension plans, and the early retirement of debt. We exclude these items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.
  • The expense associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of up to 20 years. Exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.
  • The noncontrolling interest and tax impacts of the above items and the impact of significant tax audits or events (such as changes in deferred taxes from enacted tax rate/law changes), the latter of which we exclude because they are outside of our normal operations and difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

We report free cash flow, which is operating cash flow excluding net capital expenditures, to provide a view of the continuing operations’ ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. The company also uses this measure as an indication of the strength of the company. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.

Thermo Fisher Scientific does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort items such as the timing and amount of future restructuring actions and acquisition-related charges as well as gains or losses from sales of real estate and businesses, the early retirement of debt and the outcome of legal proceedings. The timing and amount of these items are uncertain and could be material to Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures of Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results of operations and cash flows included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the tables above.
