Fourth Quarter Results and Business Highlights

  • Consolidated revenue of $2.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 4% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2022
    • Patient Direct revenue of $664 million, up 8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 from strong growth in a number of product categories
    • Products & Healthcare Services revenue of nearly $2 billion, up 3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, with growth in both the Medical Distribution and Global Products divisions
  • Fourth quarter 2023 operating income of $60 million and Adjusted Operating Income of $111 million
    • On a GAAP basis operating income margin expanded by 436 basis points while adjusted operating income margin expanded by 154 basis points. This expansion was primarily driven by a larger income contribution from the Patient Direct segment.
    • Both Patient Direct and Products & Healthcare Services delivered increases in Segment Income both year over year and sequentially from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Generated $112 million of operating cash flow in the fourth quarter driven by strong working capital improvement and operating results
  • Reduced total debt by $49 million and net debt by $76 million for the fourth quarter

2024 Financial Outlook

The Company issued its outlook for 2024; summarized below:

  • Revenue for 2024 to be in a range of $10.5 billion to $10.9 billion
  • Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 to be in a range of $550 million to $590 million
  • Adjusted EPS for 2024 to be in a range of $1.40 to $1.70

The Company’s outlook for 2024 contains assumptions, including current expectations regarding the impact of general economic conditions, including inflation, and the continuation of pressure on pricing and demand in our Products & Healthcare Services segment. Key assumptions supporting the Company’s 2024 financial guidance include:

  • Gross margin rate of 21.0% to 21.5%
  • Interest expense of $141 to $146 million
  • Adjusted effective tax rate of 27.5% to 28.5%
  • Diluted weighted average shares of ~78.5 million
  • Capital expenditures of $220 to $240 million
  • Stable commodity prices
  • FX rates as of 12/31/2023

Although the Company does provide guidance for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS (which are non-GAAP financial measures), it is not able to forecast the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP amounts are not predictable, making it impracticable for the Company to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to, restructuring and acquisition charges, which could have a significant and unpredictable impact on our GAAP results. As a result, no GAAP guidance or reconciliation of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA guidance or adjusted EPS guidance is provided. The outlook is based on certain assumptions that are subject to the risk factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC.

These amounts are highly dependent on the size and frequency of acquisitions and are being excluded to allow for a more consistent comparison with forecasted, current and historical results.

(2) During the three months and year ended December 31, 2023 exit and realignment charges were $24.3 million and $99.1 million. These charges primarily related to our (1) Operating Model Realignment Program of $19.1 million and $82.9 million, including professional fees, severance and other costs to streamline functions and processes, (2) IT strategic initiatives such as converting to common IT systems of $2.5 million and $9.2 million and, (3) other costs associated with strategic initiatives of $2.7 million and $7.0 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023.

These costs are not normal recurring, cash operating expenses necessary for the Company to operate its business on an ongoing basis.

(3) Relates to an inventory valuation adjustment in our Products & Healthcare Services segment, primarily associated with personal protective equipment inventory built up and a subsequent decline in demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

(5) Tax adjustments in 2022 includes a change in our foreign repatriation plans related to the permanent reinvestment of earnings associated with a subsidiary in Thailand.

(6) These charges have been tax effected by determining the income tax rate depending on the amount of charges incurred in different tax jurisdictions and the deductibility of those charges for income tax purposes.

(7) Other depreciation and amortization relates to property and equipment and capitalized computer software, excluding such amounts captured within exit and realignment charges or acquisition-related charges.

(8) Stock compensation includes share-based compensation expense related to our share-based compensation plans, excluding such amounts captured within exit and realignment charges or acquisition-related charges.

(9) LIFO charges includes non-cash adjustments to merchandise inventories valued at the lower of cost or market, with the approximate cost determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for distribution inventories in the U.S. within our Products & Healthcare Services segment.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This earnings release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In general, the measures exclude items and charges that (i) management does not believe reflect Owens & Minor, Inc.’s (the Company) core business and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the Company’s performance, evaluate the balance sheet, engage in financial and operational planning and determine incentive compensation.

Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing the effects of items and events on its financial and operating results and in comparing the Company’s performance to that of its competitors. However, the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.
