Covance Reports Fourth Quarter Net Revenue Of $623 Million, Pro Forma EPS Of $0.87 And Adjusted Net Orders Of $769 Million

PRINCETON, N.J. -- Covance Inc. (NYSE: CVD) today reported results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. Net revenue in the fourth quarter was $623.1 million, representing 10.8% growth from the fourth quarter of 2012's GAAP result of $562.2 million, and 11.1% growth from the fourth quarter of 2012's pro forma result of $560.7 million. On a GAAP basis, the company reported earnings of $0.80 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2013 as compared to GAAP earnings of $0.61 in the fourth quarter of 2012. Excluding charges associated with restructuring, other cost reduction actions and other items in both periods, the company reported pro forma earnings per diluted share of $0.87, up 18.6% over the pro forma earnings of $0.73 for the fourth quarter of 2012.

On a full-year basis, net revenue in 2013 was $2.4 billion, representing 10.2% growth from 2012's GAAP result of $2.18 billion, and 10.6% growth from 2012's pro forma result of $2.17 billion. On a GAAP basis, the company reported earnings per diluted share of $3.15 in 2013 as compared to GAAP earnings of $1.68 in 2012. Excluding charges associated with restructuring, other cost reduction actions and other items in both periods, the company reported pro forma earnings per diluted share of $3.23 in 2013, up 19.6% over the pro forma earnings of $2.70 for 2012.

"In 2013, Covance continued to benefit from market share gains in central laboratories, strong operational delivery in clinical development, improving market conditions in toxicology, and successful execution of our on-going strategic IT projects. This performance enabled us to significantly exceed our 2013 financial targets, with a return to double-digit revenue growth, pro forma EPS of $3.23, and free cash flow in excess of $240 million. In addition, we delivered strong orders throughout the year, resulting in record adjusted net orders of $3 billion, and an adjusted net book-to-bill of 1.25 to 1 for the year," said Joe Herring, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "For the fourth quarter, revenue grew to $623 million, up 11.1% from 2012 pro forma revenue, and pro forma earnings per share grew 18.6% to $0.87. Adjusted net orders in the fourth quarter were $769 million, representing an adjusted net book-to-bill of 1.23 to 1.

"Late-Stage Development fourth quarter revenues grew 14.5% year-on-year to $395 million. This increase was led by 17% growth in central laboratories and 13% growth in clinical development. Late-Stage Development pro forma operating margins increased 140 basis points year-on-year and 10 basis points sequentially to 22.7%. In Early Development, revenue grew 5.7% year-on-year on a pro forma basis, led by growth in clinical pharmacology and toxicology. Sequentially, revenues grew $7.9 million from the third quarter, driven primarily by strong sequential growth in toxicology. Early Development fourth quarter pro forma operating margins of 12.1% were flat sequentially after normalizing for the UK R&D credits, as strength in toxicology was offset by normal seasonality in clinical pharmacology.

"Looking ahead to 2014, for the full year, we expect year-on-year revenue growth in the 6% to 10% range and pro forma diluted earnings per share, excluding costs from our ongoing restructuring activities, in the range of $3.65 to $4.00 (assuming foreign exchange rates remain at year-end 2013 levels). In the first quarter of 2014, we expect revenue to be up from the fourth quarter level and pro forma earnings per share to increase sequentially by a couple of cents, as we forecast an increase in Late-Stage Development net revenues and earnings to be partially off-set by seasonally-lower first quarter Early Development results."

The Early Development segment includes preclinical toxicology, analytical chemistry, clinical pharmacology, discovery support, and research products. Net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2013 were $228.3 million, compared to $217.4 million on a GAAP basis and $215.9 million on a pro forma basis in the fourth quarter of last year. Last year's pro forma revenue excluded $1.5 million in revenue from the three sites closed by the end of 2012. On a pro forma basis, net revenue increased 5.7%, including a 60 basis point foreign exchange tailwind, as continued strong growth in clinical pharmacology and improved results in toxicology were partially offset by declines in discovery support and certain pharmaceutical chemistry services. Sequential growth of $7.9 million was primarily driven by toxicology.

GAAP operating income in the fourth quarter of 2013 was $21.9 million, and included $0.8 million in costs associated with our previously-announced restructuring actions and $4.9 million in asset impairment charges relating to our Manassas and Baselproperties, which are being marketed for sale. This compares to GAAP operating income of $18.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, which included restructuring costs of $4.3 million and losses at facilities closed in 2012 of $2.9 million. Pro forma operating income, excluding these costs, was $27.6 million in the fourth quarter of this year, a 6.7% increase from the $25.9 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2012 as growth in clinical pharmacology and toxicology and the shift to above margin treatment for the UK R&D credit more than offset declines in discovery support and certain chemistry services. Pro forma operating margins were 12.1% in the fourth quarter of 2013, versus 12.0% in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 13.1% last quarter. Third quarter 2013 margins included a six month impact of the shift to above margin treatment of the UK R&D credit (as the law was signed in July 2013, but applied retroactive to April 1, 2013) versus only a three month impact in the current quarter. 

On January 31, 2014, Covance sold its high-complexity genomics laboratory, located in Seattle, Washington, to Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, and entered into a five year services agreement, pursuant to which Covance will collaborate with LabCorp to continue to offer these services to its clients. Covance expects to report a small gain on this sale in its first quarter ending March 31, 2014, which will be excluded from its pro forma earnings per share. Covance will continue to provide other genomics services to its clients through its central laboratories.

The Late-Stage Development segment includes central laboratory, Phase IIb-IV clinical development, and market access services. Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 grew 14.5% year-on-year to $394.8 million, and increased $8.5 millionsequentially from the third quarter level. In the quarter, foreign exchange favorably impacted revenue growth by 170 basis points. Year-over-year growth was driven by increases of 17% in central laboratories and 13% in clinical development, while the sequential revenue increase was led by growth in clinical development followed by growth in central laboratories. 

Operating income for the fourth quarter was $89.2 million on a GAAP basis and included $0.3 million in costs associated with our ongoing restructuring actions. On a pro forma basis, operating income was $89.5 million, up 22.0% year-over-year. Pro Forma operating income also increased $2.1 million sequentially. Pro forma operating margins were 22.7% in the fourth quarter of 2013, versus 21.3% in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 22.6% last quarter. The year-on-year increase in profitability was driven by operating leverage in both clinical development and central laboratories, partially offset by increased spending on strategic IT projects. On a sequential basis, operating margins increased 10 basis points overcoming a headwind from the normalization of the UK R&D credit and increased IT spending due primarily to margin expansion in clinical development. 

Corporate Information

The company reported fourth quarter adjusted net orders of $769 million. Backlog at December 31, 2013 grew to $6.92 billioncompared to $6.83 billion at September 30, 2013 and $6.64 billion at December 31, 2012. Foreign exchange contributed $36 million to backlog growth on a sequential basis. 

Corporate expenses totaled $56.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 (including $3.8 million in restructuring costs) compared to$51.4 million last quarter (including $2.8 million in restructuring costs) and $48.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 (including$1.5 million in restructuring costs). The largest driver of the year-over-year and sequential increases in corporate expenses are spending on our strategic IT initiatives followed by higher incentive compensation expenses related to stronger-than-budgeted business performance. 

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2013 were $729 million compared to $593 million atSeptember 30, 2013 and $493 million at December 31, 2012. During the fourth quarter, the company raised $250 million from the issuance of senior notes. Proceeds from these notes and cash from operations were used to fully repay the $265 millionoutstanding balance on the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility will be maintained to provide flexibility to execute our growth strategy over the long-term.                                                      

Net Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) declined one day in the fourth quarter to 34 days at December 31, 2013 compared to 35 days at September 30, 2013 and 36 days at December 31, 2012. 

Free cash flow (defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures) for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $134 million, consisting of operating cash flow of $193 million less capital expenditures of $58 million. Free cash flow for the year was $243 million, consisting of operating cash flow of $406 million less capital expenditures of $162 million. Free cash flow in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2013 include a client payment of approximately $28 million for Value Added Tax, which had been pending resolution between the client and the tax authorities during the year. Following resolution in the fourth quarter, the client paid this amount to Covance, which will in turn be remitted to the tax authorities in the first quarter of 2014. 

The pro forma effective tax rate in the fourth quarter was 21.6%, down 670 basis points sequentially from the pro forma effective tax rate of 28.3% last quarter. The effective tax rate in the third quarter included a six month impact, or approximately 900 basis points, from the shift in accounting of the UK R&D credit. The fourth quarter effective tax rate included a benefit of approximately 220 basis points (contributing approximately $0.02 in earnings per share) attributable to the finalization of our 2013 pre-tax earnings mix, where a greater proportion of our earnings came from operations in tax jurisdictions with lower income tax rates. The 2013 full year pro forma effective tax rate was 22.9% and is expected to be approximately 24.5% in 2014.
