Fourth Quarter and Full Fiscal Year 2013 Results
Fourth quarter of 2013 revenue was $77.9 million, compared to $82.7 million in the same period last year. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $13.3 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $12.3 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2012. The fourth quarter of 2013 net income had a tax rate of 3.1% compared to same period last year tax rate of 34.8%. The lower tax rate was due to a one-time benefit from a change in foreign tax legislation. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, revenue was $313.7 million, compared to $316.9 million in the same period last year. Net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 was $40.4 million, or $2.65 per diluted share, compared to net income of $41.3 million, or $2.80 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
"We are pleased with our continued strong operating cash flow during the fourth quarter of 2013 and our continued growth in oncology; however, this was offset by lower than expected critical care and infusion therapy revenue," said Scott Lamb, ICU Medical's Chief Financial Officer. "Fourth quarter international sales were up 18.3%, while domestic sales were down 13.6%. Gross margins were 49.7% as we continued to benefit from a favorable product mix."
"Entering 2014, we are very excited to have Mr. Jain leading our Company as we focus on a number of key initiatives that we believe will better utilize our strong portfolio of products and solid operational platforms. In addition, we expect to utilize our strong free cash flow and balance sheet to enhance shareholder value," concluded Mr. Lamb.
