Hologic, Inc. (NASDAQ:HOLX) announced today the Company's financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter ended September 25, 2021.

"Our excellent top- and bottom-line results in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 exceeded expectations and capped off a remarkable year," said Steve MacMillan, the Company's chairman, president and chief executive officer. "In 2021, we lived into our Purpose, Passion and Promise by showcasing our team's incredible ability to respond simultaneously to the world's women's health and COVID-19 testing needs, which drove annual revenue growth of 47% to more than $5.6 billion."

Recent Highlights

Revenue of $1.317 billion decreased (2.3%) for the quarter, or (2.9%) in constant currency, driven by lower sales of COVID-19 assays compared to the prior year period.
Excluding significant acquisitions, organic revenue of $1.266 billion in the quarter decreased (5.4%), or (6.0%) in constant currency.
Excluding revenue from COVID-19 assays and related products such as collection kits, organic revenue grew 12.0% on a constant currency basis, which compares favorably to the long-term goal of 5% to 7% growth that the Company outlined in its last quarterly earnings call.
Global revenue for the Company's Breast Health and GYN Surgical divisions grew 15.6% and 21.8%, or 15.1% and 20.9% in constant currency, respectively, as the businesses recovered strongly compared to the prior year period, when sales were negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Global diagnostics revenue of $836.8 million decreased (10.9%), or (11.5%) in constant currency, driven by lower sales of COVID-19 assays. However, excluding revenue from COVID-19 assays and related products, global diagnostics revenue grew 5.1% on an organic, constant currency basis. Similarly, global molecular diagnostics revenue of $704.5 million declined (14.0%), or (14.5%) in constant currency, yet grew 6.5% on an organic, constant currency basis excluding sales of COVID-19 assays and related products.
Consistent with the Company's capital allocation strategy, announced the acquisition of Bolder Surgical, a private, U.S.-based company that provides advanced energy vessel sealing surgical devices, for approximately $160 million.
Released results of the inaugural Hologic Global Women's Health Index, the world's most comprehensive, globally comparative survey about women's health. Developed in partnership with Gallup, the Index is an unprecedented, in-depth examination of critical markers for women's health, by country and territory, and over time.
Launched across Europe the Novodiag system, a fully automated molecular diagnostics solution for on-demand testing of infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance. The launch follows the Company's acquisition of Mobidiag Oy in June 2021.
Cash flow from operations was a very strong $465.4 million in the fourth quarter. For the full fiscal year, the Company generated more than $2.3 billion of operating cash flow.
Investor's Business Daily named Hologic one of their "100 Best ESG Stocks."

Financial Guidance for Fiscal 2022

"We expect strong financial results in fiscal 2022, with solid growth in our core women's health businesses and a meaningful contribution from COVID-19 testing," said Karleen Oberton, Hologic's chief financial officer.

Hologic's financial guidance for the first quarter and full year 2022 is shown in the table below. The guidance is based on a full year non-GAAP tax rate of approximately 21.5%, and diluted shares outstanding of 260 million for the full year. Constant currency guidance assumes that foreign exchange rates are the same in fiscal 2022 as in fiscal 2021. Organic revenue guidance is in constant currency, and excludes the divested Blood Screening business. Revenue from acquired businesses is generally included in organic revenue guidance starting a year after the acquisition. Therefore, in fiscal 2022, Acessa will be included in organic revenue for the full year, Biotheranostics and Diagenode will become part of organic revenue in the fiscal third quarter, and Mobidiag will become part of organic revenue in the fiscal fourth quarter. The guidance below does not include the impact of the Bolder Surgical acquisition, which has not closed.

	Guidance for Fiscal 2022
	Guidance $	Reported % Increase (Decrease)	Constant Currency % Increase (Decrease)	Organic % Increase (Decrease)
Fiscal 2022
Revenue	$3,750 - $4,000	(33.4%) to (29.0%)	(33.0%) to (28.5%)	(34.1%) to (29.6%)
GAAP EPS	$2.50 - $2.80	(65.3%) to (61.2%)
Non-GAAP EPS	$3.55 - $3.85	(57.8%) to (54.2%)

Non-GAAP EPS	$1.15 - $1.25	(59.8%) to (56.3%)

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has presented the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: constant currency revenues; organic revenues; organic revenues excluding COVID related revenues, non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP operating expenses; non-GAAP operating margin; non-GAAP effective tax rate; non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP net margin; non-GAAP EPS; and adjusted EBITDA. For fiscal 2021, organic revenue excludes the divested Blood Screening business, as well as the acquired Acessa, Biotheranostics, Diagenode and Mobidiag businesses. Revenue from acquired businesses is generally included in organic revenue starting a year after the acquisition. The Company defines its non-GAAP net income, EPS, and other non-GAAP financial measures to exclude, as applicable: (i) the amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and equipment; (ii) adjustments to record contingent consideration at fair value; (iii) additional expenses resulting from the purchase accounting adjustment to record inventory at fair value; (iv) restructuring and divestiture charges and facility closure and consolidation charges, including accelerated depreciation, and costs incurred to integrate acquisitions (including retention, transaction bonuses, legal and professional consulting services) and separate divested businesses from existing operations; (v) expenses related to the divested Cynosure business incurred subsequent to the disposition date primarily related to indemnification provisions for legal and tax matters; (vi) transaction related expenses for divestitures and acquisitions; (vii) third-party expenses incurred related to implementing the European MDR/IVDR requirements and obtaining the appropriate approvals for its existing products; (viii) debt extinguishment losses and related transaction costs; (ix) the unrealized (gains) losses on the mark-to-market of foreign currency contracts for which the Company has not elected hedge accounting; (x) litigation settlement charges (benefits) and non-income tax related charges (benefits); (xi) other-than-temporary impairment losses on investments and realized gains and losses resulting from the sale of investments; (xii) the one-time discrete impacts related to internal restructurings and non-operational items; (xiii) other one-time, non-recurring, unusual or infrequent charges, expenses or gains that may not be indicative of the Company's core business results; and (xiv) income taxes related to such adjustments. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as its non-GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense included in its non-GAAP net income.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company's definition of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release adjust for specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict. The Company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of Hologic's historical operating results, comparison to competitors' operating results and determination of management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Hologic's business.

Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.
