SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 15, 2022--
Varex Imaging Corporation (Nasdaq: VREX) today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022.
Record revenues of $231 million
GAAP gross margin 32% | Non-GAAP gross margin* 33%
GAAP operating expense $50 million | Non-GAAP operating expense* $47 million
GAAP operating margin 11% | Non-GAAP operating margin* 13%
GAAP net earnings $0.32 per diluted share | Non-GAAP net earnings* $0.42 per diluted share
Record revenues of $859 million
GAAP gross margin 33% | Non-GAAP gross margin* 34%
GAAP operating expense $195 million | Non-GAAP operating expense* $179 million
GAAP operating margin 10% | Non-GAAP operating margin* 13%
GAAP net earnings $0.73 per diluted share | Non-GAAP net earnings* $1.43 per diluted share
“I am pleased to announce a strong finish to another fiscal year, with revenues reaching $231 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, a new quarterly record for Varex. Global demand for our products was solid during the quarter and a slowly improving supply chain and our supplier diversification efforts allowed us to convert more orders to sales,” said Sunny Sanyal, Chief Executive Officer of Varex. Sanyal added, “As we start a new fiscal year, I look forward to our prospects to grow in fiscal 2023 and beyond."
Varex’s revenues in the fourth quarter increased 8% sequentially from the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 with the Medical segment up 9% and the Industrial segment up 6%. Compared to prior year Q4, overall revenues grew 2% with Medical flat and Industrial up 9%. Non-GAAP gross margin was 33% percent and non-GAAP EPS of $0.42 was driven primarily by higher sales along with disciplined operating expense management.
Sanyal continued, "Fiscal year 2022 presented various challenges, including supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressure. Varex employees managed through these disruptions, leading to growth in sales and earnings, and we made progress with new products and investments in future growth.”
Balance Sheet & Cash Flow
Cash flow from operations was $17 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities finished the quarter and fiscal year at $113 million. This included a $27 million financing cash outflow related to the bond redemption during the second quarter.
Outlook
The following guidance is provided for the first quarter of fiscal year 2023:
Revenues are expected to be between $195 million and $215 million
Non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share is expected to be between $0.10 and $0.30
Non-GAAP EPS guidance takes into account the adoption of ASU 2020-06, related to the accounting for convertible instruments. Under this accounting standard, there may be scenarios where the EPS calculation adds back the convertible loan interest expense to net income and adds approximately 8 million shares underlying our convertible notes and associated bond hedge to the 41 million diluted shares. For an illustrative view of potential scenarios, please see the appendix of our Q4 FY22 earnings slide deck, which can be found on our website at vareximaging.com/quarterly-reports.
Guidance for the company's net earnings per diluted share is provided on a non-GAAP basis only. This non-GAAP financial measure is forward-looking, and the company is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate GAAP forecast of net earnings per diluted share without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of amounts and timing of unusual items, such as restructuring costs.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures derived from our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. These measures are not presented in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These measures include: non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP operating expense; non-GAAP operating earnings; non-GAAP operating earnings margin; non-GAAP earnings before taxes; non-GAAP net earnings; non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP dilutive shares; and non-GAAP EBITDA. We are providing a reconciliation above of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We are unable to provide without unreasonable effort a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis due to the potential significant variability and limited visibility of the excluded items discussed.
We utilize a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of our business, in making operating decisions, and forecasting and planning for future periods. We consider the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of our business by excluding unusual and one-time costs. We believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance. We also believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies.
Non-GAAP measures include the following items:
Amortization of intangible assets: We do not acquire businesses and assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the term of amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition or purchase. We believe that excluding amortization of intangible assets allows the users of our financial statements to better review and understand the historic and current results of our operations, and also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.
Purchase price accounting charges to cost of revenues: We may incur charges to cost of revenues as a result of acquisitions. We believe that excluding these charges allows the users of our financial statements to better understand the historic and current cost of our products, our gross margin, and also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.
Restructuring charges: We incur restructuring charges that result from events, which arise from unforeseen circumstances and/or often occur outside of the ordinary course of our on-going business. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financials, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods.
Acquisition and integration related costs: We incur expenses or benefits with respect to certain items associated with our acquisitions, such as transaction costs, changes in fair value of acquisition related hedges, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, gain or expense on settlement of pre-existing relationships, etc. We exclude such expenses or benefits as they are related to acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the operation of our on-going business. We also incur expenses or benefits with respect to certain items associated with our acquisitions, such as integration costs relating to acquisitions for any costs incurred prior to closing and up to 12 months after the closing date of the acquisition.
Impairment charges: We may incur impairment charges that result from events which arise from unforeseen circumstances and/or often occur outside of the ordinary course of our on-going business and such charges may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods.
Other non-operational costs: Certain items may be non-recurring, unusual, infrequent and directly related to an event that is distinct and non-reflective of the Company’s ongoing business operations. These may include such items as non-ordinary course litigation, legal settlements, inventory write-downs for discontinued products, cost of facilities no longer in use, extinguishment of debt and hedge costs, environmental settlements, governmental settlements including tax settlements, and other items of similar nature.
Convertible notes non-cash interest expense: We issued convertible notes in June 2020 at a discount related to the conversion feature of the notes and capitalized certain costs related to the issuance of these notes. The discount and capitalized issuance costs are amortized into interest expense over the term of the convertible notes. The amortization recognized for the convertible notes will be greater than the cash interest payments for the notes. We believe that excluding the convertible notes non-cash interest expense allows the users of our financial statements to better understand the historic and current results of our operations. This also facilitates comparisons to peer companies.
Non-operational tax adjustments: Certain tax items may be non-recurring, unusual, infrequent and directly related to an event that is distinct and non-reflective of the Company’s normal business operations. These may include such items as the retroactive impact of significant changes in tax laws, including changes to statutory tax rates and one-time tax charges.
Tax effects of operating earnings adjustments: We apply our non-GAAP adjustments to the GAAP pretax income to calculate the non-GAAP effective tax rate. This application of our non-GAAP effective tax rate excludes any discrete items, as defined in the guidance for accounting for income taxes in interim periods, or any other non-operational tax adjustments.
Dilution offset from convertible notes hedge transaction: In connection with the issuance of the Company’s Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes (the Convertible Notes) in June 2020, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the Hedge Transactions) to reduce the potential dilutive effect on common shares upon the eventual conversion of the Convertible Notes. GAAP diluted shares outstanding includes the incremental dilutive shares from the Company’s Convertible Notes. Under GAAP, the anti-dilutive impact of the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions is not reflected in GAAP diluted shares outstanding. In periods in which the average stock price per share exceeds $20.81 and the Company has GAAP net income, the non-GAAP diluted share count includes the anti-dilutive impact of the Company’s Hedge Transactions, which reduces the potential dilution that otherwise would occur upon conversion of the Company’s Convertible Notes. We believe non-GAAP diluted shares is a useful non-GAAP metric because it provides insight into the offsetting economic effect of the Hedge Transactions against potential conversion of the Convertible Notes.
