Charles River Laboratories Announces Second-Quarter 2021 Results

Second-Quarter Revenue of $914.6 Million

Second-Quarter GAAP Earnings per Share of $1.72 and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share of $2.61

Increases 2021 Guidance

Charles River Laboratories International, Inc. (NYSE: CRL) today reported its results for the second quarter of 2021. For the quarter, revenue was $914.6 million, an increase of 34.0% from $682.6 million in the second quarter of 2020.

Acquisitions contributed 6.0% to consolidated second-quarter revenue growth. The impact of foreign currency translation benefited reported revenue growth by 3.9%. Excluding the effect of these items, organic revenue growth was 24.1%, driven by contributions from all three business segments. The comparison to last year’s COVID-19-related impact increased the reported and organic revenue growth rates in the second quarter of 2021 by 8.6% and 8.0%, respectively, with the greatest impact in the Research Models and Services segment.

On a GAAP basis, second-quarter net income attributable to common shareholders was $88.4 million, an increase of 31.2% from net income of $67.4 million for the same period in 2020. Second-quarter diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis were $1.72, an increase of 28.4% from $1.34 for the second quarter of 2020. The GAAP net income and earnings per share increases were primarily driven by higher revenue and operating margin improvement, partially offset by higher acquisition-related costs and a higher tax rate. In addition, the gain from the Company’s venture capital and other strategic investments totaled $0.14 per share in the second quarter of 2021, compared to a gain of $0.38 per share for the same period in 2020. The Company’s venture capital and other strategic investment performance has been excluded from non-GAAP results.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income was $133.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 68.1% from $79.6 million for the same period in 2020. Second‑quarter diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis were $2.61, an increase of 65.2% from $1.58 per share for the second quarter of 2020. The non-GAAP net income and earnings per share increases were primarily driven by higher revenue and operating margin improvement.

James C. Foster, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The strength of our leading, non-clinical contract research and manufacturing portfolio was clearly demonstrated in our second-quarter financial performance. Robust industry fundamentals continue to drive unprecedented client demand across most of our businesses, and we are extremely well positioned to succeed in this environment.”

“Due to the sustained demand, we are intensely focused on the execution of our strategy, including strengthening our portfolio and strategically adding staff and capacity to support our clients and provide exceptional service to them. We believe the success of this strategy will enable us to achieve our increased 2021 financial guidance, as well as our longer-term strategic and financial goals,” Mr. Foster concluded.

Second-Quarter Segment Results

Research Models and Services (RMS)

Revenue for the RMS segment was $176.7 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 51.6% from $116.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The impact of foreign currency translation contributed 5.2%, and the acquisition of Cellero contributed 1.9% to second-quarter RMS revenue. Organic revenue growth of 44.5% was primarily driven by the year-over-year comparison to the COVID-19-related revenue impact in 2020, which contributed 35.0% on a reported basis and 33.4% on an organic basis to RMS revenue growth. Adjusted for the COVID-19 impact, RMS revenue growth was driven by robust demand for research models across all client segments and geographic regions, particularly in China, as well as higher revenue for research model services.

In the second quarter of 2021, the RMS segment’s GAAP operating margin increased to 24.1% from 3.3% in the second quarter of 2020, and on a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin increased to 27.4% from 9.1%. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin increases were driven primarily by operating leverage from higher sales volume of research models, due in part to the favorable comparison to last year’s COVID-19 impact.

Discovery and Safety Assessment (DSA)

Revenue for the DSA segment was $540.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 22.0% from $442.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. The impact of foreign currency translation contributed 3.0%, and the acquisitions of Distributed Bio and Retrogenix contributed 0.9% to DSA revenue growth. Organic revenue growth of 18.1% was driven by strong demand in both the Discovery Services and Safety Assessment businesses from biotechnology and global biopharmaceutical clients, as well as a small benefit from the comparison to last year’s COVID-19 impact.

In the second quarter of 2021, the DSA segment’s GAAP operating margin increased to 19.4% from 16.3% in the second quarter of 2020, and on a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin increased to 23.5% from 23.2%. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin increases were driven primarily by operating leverage from higher revenue in both the Discovery Services and Safety Assessment businesses, partially offset by foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation reduced the DSA operating margin by approximately 150 basis points in the second quarter of 2021.

Manufacturing Solutions (Manufacturing)

Revenue for the Manufacturing segment was $197.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 60.2% from $123.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The impact of foreign currency translation contributed 5.4%, and the acquisition of Cognate BioServices (Cognate) contributed 28.2% to second-quarter Manufacturing revenue. Organic revenue growth of 26.6%, was driven primarily by robust demand in the Biologics Testing Solutions and Microbial Solutions businesses.

In the second quarter of 2021, the Manufacturing segment’s GAAP operating margin decreased to 28.7% from 34.8% in the second quarter of 2020, and on a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin decreased to 33.2% from 37.4%. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin decreases were driven primarily by the addition of Cognate, as well as higher production costs in the Microbial Solutions business. In addition, the GAAP operating margin declined due to higher amortization costs associated with Cognate.

Increases 2021 Guidance

The Company is increasing its 2021 financial guidance, which was previously provided on May 4, 2021, primarily as a result of the stronger-than-expected second-quarter financial performance and an expectation that robust client demand trends will continue for the remainder of the year.

The Company’s increased guidance for revenue growth, earnings per share, and free cash flow is as follows:

Footnotes to Guidance Table:

(1) The contribution from acquisitions reflects only those acquisitions that have been completed.

(2) Organic revenue growth is defined as reported revenue growth adjusted for acquisitions and foreign currency translation.

(3) Acquisition-related amortization includes an estimate of $0.05-$0.10 for the impact of the Vigene acquisition because the preliminary purchase price allocation has not been completed.

(4) These adjustments are related to the evaluation and integration of acquisitions, and primarily include transaction, advisory, and certain third-party integration costs, as well as certain costs associated with acquisition-related efficiency initiatives.

(5) These items primarily relate to charges of a) approximately $0.30 associated with U.S. and international tax legislation, and b) approximately $0.40 associated with debt extinguishment costs and the write-off of deferred financing costs related to debt refinancing.

(6) Venture capital and other strategic investment performance only includes recognized gains or losses. The Company does not forecast the future performance of these investments.

(7) Reconciliation of the current 2021 free cash flow guidance is as follows: Cash flow from operating activities of approximately $720 million, less capital expenditures of approximately $220 million, equates to free cash flow of approximately $500 million.

Webcast

Charles River has scheduled a live webcast on Wednesday, August 4, at 9:30 a.m. ET to discuss matters relating to this press release. To participate, please go to ir.criver.com and select the webcast link. You can also find the associated slide presentation and reconciliations of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures on the website.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

The Company reports non-GAAP results in this press release, which exclude often-one-time charges and other items that are outside of normal operations. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the schedules at the end of this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, which exclude the amortization of intangible assets, and other charges related to our acquisitions; expenses associated with evaluating and integrating acquisitions and divestitures, as well as fair value adjustments associated with contingent consideration; charges, gains, and losses attributable to businesses or properties we plan to close, consolidate, or divest; severance and other costs associated with our efficiency initiatives; the impact of the termination of the Company’s U.S. pension plan; the write-off of deferred financing costs and fees related to debt financing; third-party costs associated with the remediation of unauthorized access into our information systems detected in March 2019; investment gains or losses associated with our venture capital and other strategic equity investments; and adjustments related to the recognition of deferred tax assets expected to be utilized as a result of changes to the our international financing structure and the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities as a result of foreign tax legislation. This press release also refers to our revenue in both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis: “organic revenue growth,” which we define as reported revenue growth adjusted for foreign currency translation, acquisitions, and divestitures. We exclude these items from the non-GAAP financial measures because they are outside our normal operations. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures, as they are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different than non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In particular, we believe that the inclusion of supplementary non-GAAP financial measures in this press release helps investors to gain a meaningful understanding of our core operating results and future prospects without the effect of these often-one-time charges, and is consistent with how management measures and forecasts the Company's performance, especially when comparing such results to prior periods or forecasts. We believe that the financial impact of our acquisitions and divestitures (and in certain cases, the evaluation of such acquisitions and divestitures, whether or not ultimately consummated) is often large relative to our overall financial performance, which can adversely affect the comparability of our results on a period-to-period basis. In addition, certain activities and their underlying associated costs, such as business acquisitions, generally occur periodically but on an unpredictable basis. We calculate non-GAAP integration costs to include third-party integration costs incurred post-acquisition. Presenting revenue on an organic basis allows investors to measure our revenue growth exclusive of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange fluctuations more clearly. Non-GAAP results also allow investors to compare the Company’s operations against the financial results of other companies in the industry who similarly provide non-GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company intends to continue to assess the potential value of reporting non-GAAP results consistent with applicable rules and regulations. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in this press release, and can also be found on the Company’s website at ir.criver.com.

Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “would,” “may,” “estimate,” “plan,” “outlook,” and “project,” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These statements also include statements regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; the projected future financial performance of Charles River and our specific businesses; the future demand for drug discovery and development products and services, including our expectations for future revenue trends; our expectations with respect to the impact of acquisitions completed in 2020 and 2021 on the Company, our service offerings, client perception, strategic relationships, revenue, revenue growth rates, and earnings; the development and performance of our services and products, including our investments in our portfolio; market and industry conditions including the outsourcing of services and spending trends by our clients; and Charles River’s future performance as delineated in our revised forward-looking guidance, and particularly our expectations with respect to revenue, the impact of foreign exchange, enhanced efficiency initiatives, and the assumptions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic that form the basis for our revised annual guidance. Forward-looking statements are based on Charles River’s current expectations and beliefs, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated or implied by the forward-looking statements. Those risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the COVID-19 pandemic, its duration, its impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, business practices, operations, suppliers, third party service providers, clients, employees, industry, ability to meet future performance obligations, ability to efficiently implement advisable safety precautions, and internal controls over financial reporting; the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on client demand, the global economy and financial markets; the ability to successfully integrate businesses we acquire (including Cognate BioServices and Vigene Biosciences, and risks and uncertainties associated with Cognate’s and Vigene’s products and services, which are in areas that the Company did not previously operate); the timing and magnitude of our share repurchases; negative trends in research and development spending, negative trends in the level of outsourced services, or other cost reduction actions by our clients; the ability to convert backlog to revenue; special interest groups; contaminations; industry trends; new displacement technologies; USDA and FDA regulations; changes in law; the impact of Brexit; continued availability of products and supplies; loss of key personnel; interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; changes in tax regulation and laws; changes in generally accepted accounting principles; and any changes in business, political, or economic conditions due to the threat of future terrorist activity in the U.S. and other parts of the world, and related U.S. military action overseas. A further description of these risks, uncertainties, and other matters can be found in the Risk Factors detailed in Charles River's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on February 17, 2021 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as filed on May 4, 2021, as well as other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Assessment of COVID-19 Impact in 2020

In this press release, the Company has provided its assessment for the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, including on the Company's revenue. This assessment was determined using methodologies, assumptions, and estimates that vary depending on the specific reporting segment and situation. For the Research Models and Services segment, the assessment was primarily based on comparisons to daily historical research model sales volumes prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent reduction in research model order activity associated with our clients’ COVID-19 pandemic-related site closures and/or their reduced on-site activity, as well as our discussions with clients, particularly of our research model services and HemaCare businesses, with regard to revenue expectations and operational impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. For the Discovery and Safety Assessment segment, the assessment was based on multiple factors including, but not limited to, discussions with clients with regard to the cause of delays to discovery projects and safety assessment studies, location-specific actions to ensure employee safety in our facilities, the impact of remote versus in-person activities and services, and supply chain delays and other resource constraints. For the Manufacturing Solutions segment, the assessment was based on multiple factors including, but not limited to, analysis of the sales impact due to the COVID-19 pandemic, assessments of idle instruments and the related revenue streams due to the inability to access clients’ sites, as well as discussions with clients with regard to their revenue expectations and operations. The estimated revenue loss related to COVID-19 was also expected to be partially offset by incremental work on clients’ COVID-19 programs. Because this assessment involves risks and uncertainties, actual events and results may differ materially from these estimates and assumptions, and Charles River assumes no obligation and expressly disclaims any duty to update them.

  Charles River management believes that supplementary non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to allow investors to gain a meaningful understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, without the effect of often-one-time charges and other items which are outside our normal operations, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance. The supplementary non-GAAP financial measures included are not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company intends to continue to assess the potential value of reporting non-GAAP results consistent with applicable rules, regulations and guidance.

(2)

  These adjustments are related to the evaluation and integration of acquisitions, which primarily include transaction, third-party integration, and certain compensation costs, and fair value adjustments associated with contingent consideration.

(3)

  Other items relate to third-party costs, net of insurance reimbursements, incurred during the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 associated with the remediation of the unauthorized access into the Company's information systems which was detected in March 2019.
