BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Anika Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANIK), a leader in products for tissue protection, healing and repair, based on hyaluronic acid ("HA") technology, today reported financial results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2013.
Management Commentary
"Anika concluded a record year for revenue and earnings, driven by solid demand for our viscosupplementation products as well as productivity improvements in operations and manufacturing," said Charles H. Sherwood, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our top-line results for the fourth quarter were measured against a strong set of financial comparatives in the fourth quarter of 2012, which reflected a significant and temporary increase in product shipments in that year-earlier period."
"Growth in 2013 continued to be fueled primarily by increased sales of our flagship product, Orthovisc®, in both domestic and international markets," Sherwood said. "We also made good progress this year in lowering our cost structure and improving the efficiency of our underlying operations. As a result, despite an increase in R&D spending due mainly to our multinational Phase III clinical study in support of our CE Mark application for CingalTM, Anika's profitability for 2013 improved substantially year-over-year."
"We are beginning 2014 in a strong position. Demand for our viscosupplementation products is growing, both in the U.S. and internationally. The FDA approval of Monovisc® in the U.S. enhances our strength and flexibility in that market which should allow us to significantly increase market share. We are encouraged by the potential from our product pipeline, including CingalTM and Hyalofast®. In addition, we are making good progress in building the internal capabilities that we need to expand beyond viscosupplementation and deliver on Anika's potential in regenerative therapies. We believe that Anika is well-positioned for continued growth and profitability in the quarters ahead," concluded Sherwood.
Revenue
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $21.3 million, compared with $22.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. For the full year 2013, total revenue grew 5% to $75.1 million, from $71.4 million a year earlier despite an approximately $4 million anticipated decline in Ophthalmic revenue. Anika's non-ophthalmic revenue increased 13% which continues to be largely driven by increased domestic and international viscosupplementation product sales. The comparison with the fourth quarter of 2012 reflected higher product sales in that period. This was the result of a temporary scale-up issue at Anika's Bedford manufacturing facility during the third quarter of 2012, which was rectified quickly and resulted in uneven revenue distributions for the last two quarters of that year.
Product Gross Margin
Product gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2013 improved to 69%, from 66% in the fourth quarter of 2012. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2013, product gross margin increased to 68%, compared with 57% for full year 2012. This improvement reflected the company's ongoing initiatives to realize the planned operational efficiencies, as well as more favorable product mix, the elimination of dual manufacturing facilities in Massachusetts in mid-2012, and the elimination of the company's unprofitable tissue engineering operations in Italy since the beginning of 2013.
Operating Expenses
Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2013 rose 52% from the fourth quarter a year earlier. The increase reflected expenses for the company's CingalTM clinical trial and other planned product pipeline initiatives. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 35% from the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily reflecting a cash settlement received related to a legal dispute as well as the company's ongoing cost reduction initiatives.
Operating and Net Income
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $10.4 million, compared with $7.8 million in the same period in 2012. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2013, operating income increased to $32.6 million from $19.7 million a year earlier. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $6.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared with $4.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter last year. For full year 2013, net income grew to $20.6 million, or $1.39 per diluted share, from $11.8 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, in 2012. Operating income, net income and earnings per share were higher, year-over-year, primarily due to the improvement in product gross profit.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Anika's cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2013 increased to $63.3 million, from $44.1 million at December 31, 2012. The approximately $19 million increase in cash and cash equivalents reflected an $8.4 million prepayment of long-term debt in November 2013. The overall cash balance increase was driven primarily by higher income from operations, increased cash collections on accounts receivable and option exercises during the year.
