“Our first quarter financial results demonstrate continued consistent delivery and strong execution across our global enterprise with revenue, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS all exceeding the mid-point of our guidance. We are already seeing the benefits of a leaner, more agile organization, contributing to our ability to reduce operating expenses sequentially and adapt quickly to the changing macro environment," said Jeff Simmons, Elanco president and chief executive officer. "Elanco is well positioned in the durable Animal Health industry, our strategy is working, and the team is consistently delivering on the items within our control, including our company-wide productivity agenda and price. We remain confident in our guidance after adjusting for the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar.”

"Additionally, we continue to strengthen the business and advance our late-stage pipeline, including achieving two major milestones for our Pet Health potential blockbuster candidates, and with our recently announced strategic alliance with Royal DSM for Bovaer in the U.S. These advances and the execution of the Elanco team provide a foundation for the next era of growth at Elanco and continued value for our customers.”

(1) CER = Constant Exchange Rate, representing the growth rate excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates. Certain reclassifications of prior year farm animal species revenue has been made to conform to the current year's presentation. Numbers may not add due to rounding.

In the first quarter of 2022, revenue was $1,225 million, a decrease of 1% on a reported basis, or an increase of 2% excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, compared with the first quarter of 2021.

Pet Health revenue was $639 million, a decrease of 1% on a reported basis or an increase of 2% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, with a 2% increase from price. Seresto® returned to growth in the first quarter, contributing $161 million and growing 6% on a reported basis compared to the first quarter of 2021. This, and growth from the Credelio franchise and Galliprant, was partially offset by continued pressure on legacy parasiticide brands, including prescription products Trifexis and Advantage Multi. The Advantage® family of products contributed $137 million in the quarter, a decline of 5% on a reported basis compared to the first quarter of 2021, driven by a decline in the U.S., including temporary stock-outs for certain retail products, partially offset by strong growth in several international markets, including China.

Farm Animal revenue was $569 million, a decrease of 2% on a reported basis or an increase of 1% excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, with a 1% increase from price. Improved producer demand and innovation in poultry as well as strong aqua demand was partially offset by the continuation of pressured economics for swine producers in China that began in the second half of 2021 compared to a strong first quarter of 2021. Additionally, cattle declined in the quarter primarily driven by generic competition.

Contract Manufacturing revenue was $17 million, a decrease of 11% or 8% when excluding the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates.

Reported and adjusted gross profit was $716 million, or 58.4% of revenue in the first quarter of 2022. Gross profit as a percent of revenue improved 430 bps on a reported basis, primarily driven by the amortization of the fair value adjustment of $62 million recorded from the acquisition of Bayer Animal Health in the first quarter of 2021. On an adjusted basis, gross profit as a percent of sales declined 80 bps as compared to the first quarter of 2021, primarily driven by inflation on input costs, freight, and conversion costs, partially offset by continued improvements in manufacturing productivity.

Total operating expense was $401 million for the first quarter of 2022. Marketing, selling and administrative expenses decreased 8% to $320 million, and research and development expenses decreased 9% to $81 million. The decrease was driven by the disciplined execution of recent strategic actions more than offsetting cost inflation and continued investment in key strategic priorities.

Asset impairment, restructuring, and other special charges decreased to $46 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $108 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to period over period decreases in overall acquisition and systems implementation related charges. Net interest expense decreased to $52 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $61 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to the favorable impact of refinancing debt at lower interest rates.

The reported effective tax rate increased to 32.1% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 23.5% in the first quarter of 2021, primarily driven by the 2017 U.S. tax law change that became effective January 1st, 2022, requiring the capitalization of certain R&D expenses. The adjusted effective tax rate was also impacted by the tax law change, increasing from 21.3% in the first quarter of 2021 to 30.4% in the first quarter of 2022.

Net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $48 million and $0.10 per diluted share on a reported basis, compared with a net loss of $61 million and $(0.12) per diluted share for the same period in 2021. On an adjusted basis, net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $177 million and $0.36 per diluted share, representing a 3% decrease for each, compared with the same period in 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $339 million in the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of 1% compared to the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue was 27.7% compared with 27.6% for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 10 basis points.

Working Capital and Balance Sheet

Operating cash flow was $(62) million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to $22 million in the first quarter of 2021. The cash used in the first quarter of 2022 reflects a reduction in accounts payable and other liabilities, annual bonus payouts, and increased severance payments.

As of March 31, 2022, Elanco’s net leverage ratio was 5.6x adjusted EBITDA, an increase of 0.1x compared to December 31, 2021, driven by higher net debt in 2022 from the expected seasonality of higher cash outflow in the first quarter. Elanco continues to expect to end 2022 with a net leverage ratio of 4.75x adjusted EBITDA.

For the full year 2022, the company now anticipates revenue between $4,700 million and $4,755 million, including a headwind of approximately $140 million from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates compared to 2021. This represents an incremental $45 million headwind compared to the February guidance. Additionally, the company has updated its guidance for reported net income, adjusted EBITDA, reported EPS and adjusted EPS to reflect the impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar.

Additionally, Elanco is providing financial guidance for the second quarter of 2022, summarized in the following table:

For the second quarter of 2022, the company anticipates revenue between $1,160 million and $1,200 million, with an expected headwind of approximately $45 million from the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates compared to the second quarter of 2021. The expected 4% revenue decline at constant currency for the second quarter 2022 is primarily driven by emerging macro conditions including the situations in China, Ukraine and Russia, as well as stock-outs of certain U.S. pet health products and a partial shift of aqua product demand into the first quarter from the second quarter as a result of strong underlying salmon market prices.

The implied guidance for the second half of 2022 includes an acceleration of revenue and profitability growth. The company’s initial guidance for full year 2022 in February included an expected second half acceleration of revenue growth from price increases, the improvement of year over year unfavorable comparisons across many parts of the business, including contract manufacturing, and the increasing contribution from innovation. The company’s updated guidance for full year 2022 now includes expected benefit from incremental price improvement and sales phasing in China from the second quarter of 2022 to the second half of 2022 from expected easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Importantly, the company expects headwinds from the war in Ukraine to continue the rest of this year.

The financial guidance reflects foreign exchange rates as of the beginning of May.

Further details on guidance, including GAAP reported to non-GAAP adjusted reconciliations, are included in the financial tables of this press release and will be discussed on the company's conference call this morning.

If any of these risks materialize, or if any of the above assumptions underlying forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results and developments may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. We caution you against relying on any forward-looking statements, which should also be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included elsewhere in this press release. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release speaks only as of the date thereof.

Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should be viewed as historical data.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as revenue excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate effects, adjusted constant currency revenue growth, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EPS, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and net debt leverage to assess and analyze our operational results and trends as explained in more detail in the reconciliation tables later in this release.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and reported GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release and are posted on our website at www.elanco.com. The primary material limitations associated with the use of such non-GAAP measures as compared to U.S. GAAP results include the following: (i) they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, including those in our industry, (ii) they exclude financial information and events, such as the effects of an acquisition or amortization of intangible assets, that some may consider important in evaluating our performance, value or prospects for the future, (iii) they exclude items or types of items that may continue to occur from period to period in the future and (iv) they may not exclude all unusual or non-recurring items, which could increase or decrease these measures, which investors may consider to be unrelated to our long-term operations. These non-GAAP measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP reported measures. We encourage investors to review our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements in their entirety and caution investors to use U.S. GAAP measures as the primary means of evaluating our performance, value and prospects for the future, and non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures.

Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Selected Non-GAAP Adjusted Information

(Unaudited)

(Dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

We define adjusted gross profit as total revenue less adjusted cost of sales and adjusted gross margin as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenue.

We define adjusted net income as net income (loss) excluding amortization of intangible assets, purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, integration costs of acquisitions, severance, asset impairment, gain on sale of assets, facility exit costs, tax valuation allowances and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations adjusted for income tax expense associated with the excluded financial items.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense (income), income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude purchase accounting adjustments to inventory, integration costs of acquisitions, severance, asset impairment, gain on sale of assets, facility exit costs and other specified significant items, such as unusual or non-recurring items that are unrelated to our long-term operations.

We define adjusted EPS as adjusted net income divided by the number of weighted average shares outstanding for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

We define net debt as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. We define gross debt as the sum of the current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt excluding unamortized debt issuance costs. We define the net leverage ratio as gross debt less cash and cash equivalents divided by adjusted EBITDA. This calculation does not include Term Loan B covenant-related adjustments that reduce this leverage ratio.

The table above reflects only line items with non-GAAP adjustments.

(a)

The company uses non-GAAP financial measures that differ from financial statements reported in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors. Among other things, they may help investors evaluate the company’s ongoing operations. They can assist in making meaningful period-over-period comparisons and in identifying operating trends that would otherwise be masked or distorted by the items subject to the adjustments. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business, including to allocate resources. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(b)

Adjustments to certain GAAP reported measures for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 include the following:

 

(1)

2021 excludes amortization of inventory fair value adjustments recorded from the acquisition of Bayer Animal Health ($62 million).

 

(2)

2022 excludes charges associated with integration efforts and external costs related to the acquisitions of Bayer Animal Health and KindredBio ($24 million), the finalization of a write-down charge associated with the sale of our manufacturing site in Speke, U.K. ($28 million), and facility exit costs ($1 million), partially offset by adjustments resulting from the reversal of severance accruals ($7 million).

 

(3)

2021 excludes charges associated with integration efforts and external costs related to the acquisition of Bayer Animal Health, and charges primarily related to independent stand-up costs and other related activities ($81 million), severance ($26 million), asset impairments ($9 million), and asset write-downs ($2 million), partially offset by curtailment gains recognized due to the remeasurement of our pension benefit obligations resulting from workforce reductions associated with our recent restructuring programs ($9 million) and the gain recorded on the divestiture of an early-stage IPR&D asset acquired as part of the Bayer Animal Health acquisition ($1 million).

 

(4)

2021 excludes up-front payments received and equity issued to us in relation to a license agreement ($8 million), partially offset by net losses recorded in relation to divestitures ($1 million).

 

(5)

2022 represents the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items, as well as a decrease in the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets during the period ($16 million).

 

(6)

2021 represents the income tax expense associated with the adjusted items, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance recorded against our U.S. deferred tax assets during the period ($2 million).

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we reported a GAAP net loss and thus potential dilutive common shares were not assumed to have been issued since their effect is anti-dilutive. During the same periods, we reported non-GAAP net income. As a result, potential dilutive common shares would not have an anti-dilutive effect, and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of calculating adjusted EPS include 1.4 million of common stock equivalents.

(1) 2022 Includes the unfavorable adjustment relating to the decrease in the valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (impact of $0.03 per share).

(2) 2021 includes the favorable adjustment relating to the valuation allowance recorded against our U.S. deferred tax assets during the three months ended March 31, 2021 (impact of less than $0.01 per share).

(3) Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated as the sum of as reported diluted EPS and total adjustments to diluted EPS.

For the periods presented, we have not made adjustments for all items that may be considered unrelated to our long-term operations. We believe adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and its reconciliation to net income, enhances investors' understanding of our performance, valuation and prospects for the future. We also believe adjusted EBITDA is a measure used in the animal health industry by analysts as a valuable performance metric for investors. The following is a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA Margin, which is adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue, for the respective periods:

(1) Represents depreciation and amortization of certain assets that was accelerated during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. This amount must be added back to arrive at adjusted EBITDA because it is included in asset impairment, restructuring and other special charges but it has already been excluded from EBITDA in the "Depreciation and amortization" row above.
