Lantheus Holdings, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Lantheus Holdings, Inc. (the "Company”) (NASDAQ: LNTH), the parent company of Lantheus Medical Imaging, Inc. and Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and a global leader in the development, manufacture and commercialization of innovative diagnostic and therapeutic agents and products, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

The Company’s worldwide revenue for the third quarter of 2020 totaled $88.5 million, compared with $85.8 million for the third quarter of 2019, representing an increase of 3.2% from the prior year period.

The Company’s third quarter 2020 net loss was $6.4 million, or $(0.10) per fully diluted share, as compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.12 per fully diluted share for the third quarter of 2019.

The Company’s third quarter 2020 adjusted fully diluted earnings per share were $0.04, as compared to $0.28 for the third quarter of 2019, representing a decrease of 87.1% from the prior year period.

Lastly, net cash provided by operating activities was $8.6 million for the third quarter 2020. Free Cash Flow was $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2020, representing a decrease of approximately $18.3 million from the prior year period.

"We continued to see steady recovery throughout the quarter primarily driven by DEFINITY and complemented by accelerated synergy capture, delivering a strong adjusted EPS performance,” said Mary Anne Heino, President and CEO. "Importantly, despite increased investment during the quarter related to our newly-combined business and our on-going integration efforts, we generated positive free cash flow. We remain committed to executing on our corporate initiatives even during these unprecedented times. In our first quarter as an integrated company, we received approval for VIALMIXRFID and submitted the NDA for our PSMA-targeted PET imaging agent, PyL. We believe these accomplishments and our continued financial discipline position us to drive sustainable future growth and enhanced shareholder value.”

Outlook

On April 9, 2020, the Company withdrew full year 2020 revenue, revenue growth, and adjusted fully diluted earnings per share guidance as a result of the continued uncertainties surrounding the scope, duration and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to these uncertainties, and uncertain timing of global recovery and economic normalization, the Company continues to be unable to provide guidance as to the overall impacts on its operations and financial results during the ongoing pandemic.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income and its line components; adjusted net income per share - fully diluted; and free cash flow. The Company’s management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors. These measures may assist investors in evaluating the Company’s operations, period over period. However, these measures may exclude items that may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the Company’s reported results of operations for a particular period. Management uses these and other non-GAAP measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources and the evaluation of results relative to employee performance compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
