Non-GAAP gross margin of 52.0%, up from 48.9%
Non-GAAP net income of $0.2 million and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.01, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3.7 million and a non-GAAP loss per share of $0.11 in the second quarter of 2010
PAD segment non-GAAP operating income of $3.2 million, compared to a loss of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2010
Cash and investments portfolio of $212.2 million at June 30, 2011
Louis P. Scafuri, CEO of Syneron, commented, "During the second quarter we strengthened and expanded our industry leadership position and continued to gain market share. We benefitted from our innovative and diversified product portfolio, including the successful launch of the new GentleLASE PRO high speed hair removal system. Our strong top-line performance was coupled with continued prudent expense management, allowing us to deliver another quarter of strong operating profit in our Professional Aesthetic Device, or PAD, segment.
"Second quarter top-line results also benefitted from rapid growth of our Emerging Business Units, or EBU, which more than doubled on a sequential basis. This growth was driven by the ongoing international rollout of the m? home-use hair removal system, the launch of the Tända ZAP™ advanced acne clearing device and increased sales of our elure™ Advanced Skin Lightening products. We are very pleased with the strong growth and diversification provided by the EBU segment and expect that it will continue to play an increasingly important role in our overall business. In summary, we believe Syneron is best positioned in the Aesthetic market place to further advance our global market leadership."
Second quarter 2011 revenue was $60.6 million, an increase of 24.1% compared to $48.8 million in second quarter 2010 and a 21.6% sequential increase over first quarter 2011. International revenue in second quarter 2011 was $39.7 million, an increase of 29.9% compared to $30.6 million in second quarter 2010 and an 18.9% sequential increase over first quarter 2011. Second quarter 2011 revenue in North America was $20.9 million, an increase of 14.5% compared to $18.2 million in second quarter 2010 and a 27.4% increase over first quarter 2011.
Second quarter 2011 non-GAAP gross margin was 52.0%, compared to 48.9% in second quarter 2010 and 53.5% in first quarter 2011. The significant increase in non-GAAP gross margin compared to the second quarter of 2010 was primarily driven by higher sales mix of Syneron products and consumables, which benefited from increased cross selling and higher production and sales volume. The sequential decline in non-GAAP gross margin was mainly due to the penetration phase of the m? home-use hair removal system into new European markets and stronger Candela sales to distributors.
Second quarter 2011 non-GAAP operating income was $0.3 million, compared to a non-GAAP operating loss of $3.3 million in second quarter 2010. Second quarter 2011 non-GAAP operating income represented 0.5% of revenue in the quarter, compared to a non-GAAP operating loss of 6.8% of revenue in second quarter 2010.
The significant improvement in non-GAAP operating income (loss) was primarily driven by the increase in gross margin and operational efficiency and cost cutting measures implemented since the first quarter 2010.
Second quarter non-GAAP 2011 net income was $0.2 million, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3.7 million in second quarter 2010.
Second quarter 2011 non-GAAP earnings per share (basic and diluted) was $0.01, compared to a non-GAAP loss per share of $0.11 in second quarter 2010.
Non-GAAP net income and earnings per share for second quarter 2011 are adjusted to exclude the following one-time income and expenses, which are detailed in the Company's financial tables:
Income from a re-valuation of contingent liabilities related to the Company's previous acquisitions of $3.1 million
Amortization of acquired intangible assets of $2.1 million
Stock-based compensation of $0.9 million
Post acquisition severance payment of $0.8 million
Other one-time charges and non-recurring costs of $0.7 million
Second quarter 2011 gross margin was 50.3%, compared to 47.2% in second quarter 2010 and 51.4% in first quarter 2011. The significant increase in GAAP gross margin compared to the second quarter of 2010 was primarily driven by higher sales mix of Syneron products and consumables, which benefited from increased cross selling and higher production and sales volume. The sequential decline in GAAP gross margin was mainly due to the penetration phase of the m? home-use hair removal system into new European markets and stronger Candela sales to distributors.
Second quarter 2011 operating loss was $1.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $6.5 million in second quarter 2010.
The significant improvement in operating loss was primarily driven by the increase in gross margin and operational efficiency and cost cutting measures implemented since first quarter 2010.
Second quarter 2011 net loss was $0.3 million, compared to a net loss of $6.2 million in second quarter of 2010.
Second quarter 2011 loss per share was $0.01, compared to a loss per share of $0.18 in second quarter 2010.
As of June 30, 2011, cash and cash equivalents, including short-term and long-term bank deposits and investments in marketable securities, were $212.2 million.
Asaf Alperovitz, Chief Financial Officer of Syneron, commented, "Second quarter PAD operating margin remained strong despite increased sales and marketing efforts to support the launch of our GentleLASE PRO. On a consolidated basis, the positive PAD results allowed us to achieve our third consecutive quarter of non-GAAP profitability. The year-over-year improvement in gross margin was driven by a higher mix of Syneron products and continued procedure growth with our systems that utilize consumable components. The sequential decrease in gross margin was mainly a result of increased sales contribution from the EBU segment, which currently has margins below the overall average, primarily due to the penetration phase of our m? home-use hair removal system into new European markets, where we sell to our distribution partners. We view the growing contribution from the EBU segment as a positive indicator of its growth potential and will continue to invest in expanding this business."
This press release provides financial measures for gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, which exclude one-time expenses relating to the mergers with Candela Corporation and Primaeva Medical Inc, an expense charge related to stock-based compensation and amortization, one-time severance and other one-time charges and non-recurring costs, and are therefore not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance because it reflects our operational results and enhances management's and investors' ability to evaluate the Company's gross margin, operating income (loss), net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when evaluating the business internally and, therefore, felt it important to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors. A reconciliation of each GAAP to non-GAAP financial measure discussed in this press release is contained in the accompanying financial tables.
