SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., Aug. 11, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ICU Medical, Inc., (Nasdaq:ICUI), a leader in innovative medical devices used in infusion therapy, oncology and critical care applications, today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014.

Second Quarter 2014 Results

Revenues were $78.7 million in the second quarter of 2014 and 2013. GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $5.9 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, as compared to GAAP net income of $7.4 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.51 as compared to $0.58 for the second quarter of 2013. Also, adjusted EBITDA was $16.3 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $17.7 million for the second quarter of 2013.

Vivek Jain, ICU Medical's Chief Executive Officer, said, "Second quarter revenue and profitability were slightly above our expectations. International sales were up 12%, primarily due to increased sales in infusion therapy and critical care. Domestic sales were down 4%, primarily due to lower infusion therapy sales. Based on our results to date and expectations for the remainder of the year, we are raising our full year 2014 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS and GAAP EPS guidance ranges."
