Avanos Medical, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Results
ALPHARETTA, Ga., Feb. 20, 2024/PRNewswire/ -- Avanos Medical, Inc. (NYSE: AVNS) today reported fourth quarter and full-year 2023 results.
“We were very pleased with the overall execution on our transformation initiative last year, which sets the foundation for more profitable growth in 2024 and for reaching our mid-term financial targets in 2025,” said Joe Woody, Avanos’s chief executive officer. Woody continued, “We believe we are poised to maintain the positive momentum in our Digestive Health portfolio and we are also confident that our strategy for the Pain Management and Recovery business will lead to sustainable growth as we enter 2024.”
2023 Financial Highlights
Fourth quarter net sales from continuing operations totaled $173.3 million, a 4.6% decrease from the prior year. For the full-year, net sales from continuing operations decreased 1.6% to $673.3 million.
Fourth quarter diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.24 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.21 per share a year ago, and fourth quarter adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.36 compared to $0.45 in the prior year. 2023 full-year diluted loss per share from continuing operations were $0.21 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.46 in the prior year, and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.03 compared to $1.00 in 2022.
Fourth quarter free cash flow was an outflow of $3.4 million following an inflow of $25.2 million in the third quarter and compared to $28.8 million in the fourth quarter of last year. 2023 full-year free cash flow was $14.6 million compared to $71.6 million in 2022.
During 2023, we completed a number of important steps in furtherance of the three-year transformation initiative that we initiated in January 2023 (the “Transformation Process”). The Transformation Process is focused on four key priorities: optimizing our commercial organization; transforming our product portfolio; implementing cost management initiatives to enhance operating profitability; and continuing to efficiently deploy capital while maintaining a focused and disciplined approach to M&A.
On October 2, 2023, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of our respiratory health (RH) business (the “Divestiture”). This transaction was aimed at accelerating our efforts to focus our portfolio in markets where we believe we are well-positioned to succeed. As a result of the Divestiture, the RH business’s operating results are reflected as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
On July 24, 2023, we closed the acquisition of Diros Technology, Inc. (“Diros”). Based in Toronto, Canada, Diros is at the forefront of radiofrequency ablation, or RFA, technology used to treat chronic pain conditions. The addition of Diros’ unique RF TridentTM technology is expected to further enhance Avanos’ Pain Management and Recovery



treatment options and complement our premium COOLIEF* Cooled Radiofrequency product offering. We believe the acquisition of Diros represents a significant addition to our product portfolio.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Operating Results From Continuing Operations
In the fourth quarter of 2023, net sales totaled $173.3 million, a 4.6% decrease compared to the prior year, primarily from lower hyaluronic acid (“HA”) portfolio sales, partially offset by favorable foreign currency translation effects.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter was 54.8% compared to 56.7% a year ago. Adjusted gross margin was 58.6% compared to 58.9% in the prior year. Gross profit margin decreased primarily due to product mix, partially offset by favorable currency exchange rates and manufacturing efficiencies.
Selling and general expenses as a percentage of net sales was 43.0% compared to 43.3% in the prior year period, primarily due to non-recurring expenses associated with our ongoing Transformation Process, the Diros acquisition and the Divestiture, as well as compliance costs associated with the EU Medical Device Regulation (the “EU MDR”).
Operating profit in the quarter was $11.2 million compared to $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. On an adjusted basis, operating profit was $27.1 million compared to $29.5 million a year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $32.1 million compared to $33.7 million in the prior year.
Full-Year 2023 Operating Results From Continuing Operations
Net sales decreased 1.6% to $673.3 million in 2023 primarily due to lower volume in the Pain Management and Recovery portfolio (primarily lower sales of HA pain relief products), partially offset by continued strong demand for Digestive Health products. In addition to volume, 0.3% of favorable pricing was offset by 0.2% of unfavorable foreign currency translation effects.
Gross margin for 2023 was 56.4% compared to 57.6% in 2022. Adjusted gross margin was 59.1%, down from 59.9% last year due primarily to unfavorable product mix, partially offset by improved manufacturing efficiencies.
Selling and general expenses as a percentage of net sales were 49.8% compared to 47.7% in the prior year period, driven by higher selling costs, along with non-recurring expenses associated with our ongoing Transformation Process, the Divestiture and the Diros acquisition, as well as compliance costs associated with the EU MDR.
Operating income in 2023 was $4.2 million compared to $35.5 million in the prior year. On an adjusted basis, operating profit was $79.7 million compared to $73.2 million in 2022.
For the full-year, adjusted EBITDA totaled $98.9 million, compared to $91.2 million in the prior year.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Cash from operations less capital expenditures, or free cash flow, for the fourth quarter of 2023 was an outflow of $3.4 million, compared to an inflow of $28.8 million a year ago. For 2023, free cash flow was $14.6 million, compared to $71.6 million in the prior year.
At year-end 2023, the Company’s cash balance was $87.7 million compared to $127.7 million at year-end 2022. Total debt at the end of the fourth quarter totaled $168.0 million, consisting of borrowings of $118.8 million on the Company's term loan facility and $49.2 million on the revolving credit facility.
Discontinued Operations
Net sales from discontinued operations were $7.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $35.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2022. Net sales from discontinued operations were $100.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $135.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. We recognized a loss on disposal of the RH business, and accordingly, we recorded impairment of $70.8 million against assets in the disposal group, which is included in “(Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax.”
2024 Outlook



The Company expects 2024 net sales to be between $685 and $705 million, which assumes organic growth between 3% to 6%, excluding the impact of the product portfolio rationalization under the Transformation Process. Adjusted gross profit margins are expected to be between 59.5% and 60.5%, adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenue is expected to be between 41% and 42%, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $1.30 to $1.45.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables include the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures:
Adjusted net income
Adjusted diluted earnings per share
Adjusted gross and operating profit
Adjusted effective tax rate
Adjusted EBITDA
Free cash flow
These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items, as applicable, for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures:
Incremental expenses associated with altering operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Expenses associated with restructuring and transformation activities, including IT-related charges.
Expenses associated with post-divestiture transition activities.
The amortization of intangible assets associated with prior business acquisitions.
Expenses associated with certain litigation matters.
Compliance with the EU MDR.
Certain acquisition and integration charges related to the acquisition of OrthogenRx and Game Ready.
The tax effects of certain adjusting items.
The benefit associated with tax effects of the CARES Act.
The positive or negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates during the year.
The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information to our GAAP financial measures. Management and the Company’s Board of Directors use net sales on a constant currency basis, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating profit, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow to (a) evaluate the Company’s historical and prospective financial performance and its performance relative to its competitors, (b) allocate resources and (c) measure the operational performance of the Company’s business units and their managers. Management also believes that the use of an adjusted effective tax rate provides improved insight into the tax effects of the Company’s ongoing business operations.
Additionally, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors will use certain of the non-GAAP financial measures when setting and assessing achievement of incentive compensation goals. These goals are based, in part, on the Company’s net sales on a constant currency basis and adjusted EBITDA, which will be determined by excluding certain items that are used in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures.
Our competitors may define these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and as a result, our measure of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those of other companies. Items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, the financial statement



data presented in our consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information.
Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial tables.
