Taro Provides Results for Quarter Ended June 2018
Taro Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE:TARO) ("Taro" or the
"Company") today provided unaudited financial results for the quarter
ended June 30, 2018.
Quarter ended June 30, 2018 Highlights - compared to June 30, 2017
-
Net sales of $154.6 million, decreased $6.7 million, or 4.2%, the
result of continuing increased competition and the challenging pricing
environment; despite an overall increase in volumes of 11.1%.
-
Gross profit of $100.1 million, decreased $16.5 million and as a
percentage of net sales, was 64.7% compared to 72.2%.
-
Research and development expenses of $13.3 million decreased $1.3
million.
-
Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses of $23.6
million decreased $0.7 million.
-
Operating income of $63.2 million decreased $14.5 million and as a
percentage of net sales was 40.8% as compared to 48.1%.
-
Interest and other financial income increased $3.3 million to $7.8
million.
-
Foreign Exchange (FX) income of $10.0 million compared to FX expense
of $19.6 million - a favorable impact of $29.6 million, principally
the result of the weakening of the Canadian dollar vs. the U.S. dollar.
-
Tax expense of $14.1 million increased $4.1 million with the effective
tax rate increasing to 17.3% from 15.5%.
-
Net income attributable to Taro was $67.3 million compared to $54.5
million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $1.71 compared to
$1.35.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Highlights
-
Cash flow provided by operations was $82.4 million compared to $72.7
million for the three months ended June 30, 2017.
-
As of June 30, 2018, cash, including short-term and long-term bank
deposits and marketable securities, increased $63.6 million to $1.7
billion from March 31, 2018. Cash reflects the $24.7 million impact
from the Company's share repurchases during the current quarter.
Mr. Uday Baldota, Taro's CEO stated, "We continue to face an overall
market trend, particularly in the U.S., that is not dramatically
changing, and depending on the product(s), price deflation continues to
be a challenge. We continue to maintain a development pipeline investing
only in those products which are viable. From a business development
perspective, we will continue to evaluate opportunities that make
strategic sense and remain disciplined in our approach."
FDA Approvals and Filings
The Company recently received two approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA") for Abbreviated New Drug Applications ("ANDAs");
Benzoyl Peroxide; Clindamycin Phosphate Topical Gel 5%; 1% and
Clindamycin Phosphate and Benzoyl Peroxide Gel, 1.2%/3.75%. The Company
currently has a total of thirty-two ANDAs awaiting FDA approval,
including five tentative approvals.
Share Repurchase Program - Returning Capital to
Shareholders
On November 23, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
approved a $250 million share repurchase of ordinary shares. Under this
authorization, repurchases may be made from time to time at the
Company's discretion, based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs
of the business, the market price of its stock, and general market
conditions. The repurchase authorization enables the Company to purchase
its ordinary shares through open market purchases, negotiated
transactions or other means, including 10b5-1 trading plans in
accordance with applicable securities laws or other restrictions. On
November 7, 2017, the Board extended the share repurchase program for
one year.
During the quarter, the Company repurchased 202,325 shares at an average
price of $100.34. Through June 30, 2018, in total under the
authorization, the Company has repurchased 1,806,984 shares at an
average price of $102.86; with $64.1 million remaining.
Form 20-F Filings with the SEC (News - Alert)
On June 21, 2018, the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 20-F with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2018.
The Company cautions that the foregoing financial information is
