Charles River Laboratories Announces Second-Quarter 2024 Results

– Second-Quarter Revenue of $1.03 Billion –

– Second-Quarter GAAP Earnings per Share of $1.74 and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share of $2.80 –

– Board Approves New Stock Repurchase Authorization of $1.0 Billion –

– Revises 2024 Guidance –

Charles River Laboratories International, Inc. (NYSE: CRL) today reported its results for the second quarter of 2024. For the quarter, revenue was $1.03 billion, a decrease of 3.2% from $1.06 billion in the second quarter of 2023.

The impact of foreign currency translation reduced reported revenue by 0.3%, a divestiture reduced reported revenue by 0.2%, and an acquisition contributed 0.5% to consolidated second-quarter revenue. Excluding the effect of these items, revenue also declined 3.2% on an organic basis. On a segment basis, organic revenue growth in the Manufacturing Solutions (Manufacturing) segment was more than offset by lower revenue in the Discovery and Safety Assessment (DSA) and Research Models and Services (RMS) segments.

In the second quarter of 2024, the GAAP operating margin decreased to 14.8% from 15.6% in the second quarter of 2023. This GAAP decrease was primarily driven by lower operating margins in the RMS and DSA segments, due in part to costs associated with the Company’s restructuring initiatives. On a non-GAAP basis, the second-quarter operating margin increased to 21.3% from 20.4%, driven primarily by lower performance-based compensation accruals, as well as operating margin improvement in the Manufacturing segment.

On a GAAP basis, second-quarter net income attributable to common shareholders was $90.0 million, a decrease of 7.2% from $97.0 million for the same period in 2023. Second-quarter diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis were $1.74, a decrease of 7.9% from $1.89 for the second quarter of 2023. The GAAP net income and earnings per share decreases were driven primarily by lower revenue and operating income, which included higher costs associated with the Company’s restructuring initiatives. On a non-GAAP basis, net income was $144.9 million for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 4.8% from $138.3 million for the same period in 2023. Second-quarter diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis were $2.80, an increase of 4.1% from $2.69 per share for the second quarter of 2024. The increases in non-GAAP net income and earnings per share were driven primarily by lower performance-based compensation accruals, as well as higher revenue and operating income in the Manufacturing segment.

James C. Foster, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our financial performance through the first half of this year has been largely in line with our initial outlook; however, forward-looking DSA trends suggest that demand will not improve during the second half of the year as we had previously anticipated, and in fact, will decline for global biopharmaceutical clients. This has caused us to take a much more negative view of our growth prospects for the second half of the year. We believe that our clients are currently more focused on reassessing their budgets and reprioritizing their pipelines, but continue to view strategic outsourcing as a compelling solution to improve their cost efficiency and speed to market, presenting a longer-term opportunity for us.”

“Therefore, it is imperative for us to navigate through this period of softer demand by aggressively managing our cost structure, initiating new and innovative ways to transform our business, being disciplined with our investments, and enhancing our commercial efforts to win new business. We firmly believe that our clients will continue to seek life-saving treatments for rare diseases and other unmet medical needs, which drives us to take further steps to position Charles River for the future. These steps will enable us to emerge as a stronger, leaner partner to help our clients achieve their goals by utilizing our scientific expertise and flexible solutions,” Mr. Foster concluded.

Second-Quarter Segment Results

Research Models and Services (RMS)

Revenue for the RMS segment was $206.4 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 1.7% from $209.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. The Noveprim acquisition in November 2023 contributed 2.7% to second-quarter RMS reported revenue, and the impact of foreign currency translation reduced revenue by 0.5%. Organic revenue decreased by 3.9%, due primarily to lower revenue for non-human primates (NHPs) in China. In addition, lower revenue for research model services and the Cell Solutions business also contributed to the decline. The decline was partially offset by higher sales of small research models, particularly in Europe and China.

In the second quarter of 2024, the RMS segment’s GAAP operating margin decreased to 14.5% from 23.3% in the second quarter of 2023. On a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin decreased to 23.1% from 26.4%. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin declines were driven primarily by lower NHP revenue. On a GAAP basis, the lower operating margin also reflects higher costs associated with the Company’s restructuring initiatives, including site consolidation costs related to the Company’s CRADL operations in California.

Discovery and Safety Assessment (DSA)

Revenue for the DSA segment was $627.4 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of 5.4% from $663.5 million in the second quarter of 2023. A divestiture of a small Safety Assessment site reduced reported revenue by 0.3% and the impact of foreign currency translation reduced DSA revenue by 0.1%. Organic revenue decreased by 5.0%, driven by lower revenue in the Discovery Services and Safety Assessment businesses.

In the second quarter of 2024, the DSA segment’s GAAP operating margin decreased to 22.1% from 24.3% in the second quarter of 2023. On a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin decreased to 27.1% from 27.6% in the second quarter of 2023. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin decreases were driven primarily by the impact of lower sales volume, partially offset by lower performance-based compensation accruals. On a GAAP basis, the lower operating margin also reflects higher costs associated with the Company’s restructuring initiatives, as well as higher acquisition-related adjustments associated with Noveprim.

Manufacturing Solutions (Manufacturing)

Revenue for the Manufacturing segment was $192.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 3.1% from $186.5 million in the second quarter of 2023. The impact of foreign currency translation reduced Manufacturing revenue by 0.6%. Organic revenue growth of 3.7% reflected higher revenue across all of the segment’s businesses.

In the second quarter of 2024, the Manufacturing segment’s GAAP operating margin increased to 19.4% from 13.1% in the second quarter of 2023, and on a non-GAAP basis, the operating margin increased to 26.6%, from 22.9% in the second quarter of 2023. The GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin increases were driven primarily by improved profitability for each of segment’s businesses. On a GAAP basis, lower third-party legal costs related to the Microbial Solutions business and lower acquisition-related adjustments also contributed to the increase.

New Stock Repurchase Authorization

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a new stock repurchase authorization of $1.0 billion. This new authorization replaces a prior stock repurchase authorization of $1.3 billion that had $129.1 million remaining on the plan when it was terminated.

Revises 2024 Guidance

The Company is revising its financial guidance for 2024, which was previously updated on May 9, 2024. The reduced guidance primarily reflects the lack of a recovery in demand from our small and mid-sized biotechnology clients in the second half of the year, as well as softer demand trends from global biopharmaceutical clients whose deterioration has become increasingly evident in the past couple of months. As a result, the Company no longer expects that overall demand trends will improve during the second half of the year. In particular, these trends will have a meaningful impact on the outlook for the DSA segment. The Company is implementing restructuring initiatives that are expected to result in annualized cost savings of over $150 million (inclusive of actions implemented last year through the third quarter of 2024), of which approximately $100 million will be realized in 2024.

The Company’s 2024 guidance for revenue growth and earnings per share is as follows:

Footnotes to Guidance Table:

(1) Organic revenue growth is defined as reported revenue growth adjusted for completed acquisitions and divestitures, as well as foreign currency translation.

(2) These adjustments include amortization related to intangible assets, as well as the purchase accounting step-up on inventory and certain long-term biological assets.

(3) These adjustments are related to the evaluation and integration of acquisitions and divestitures, and primarily include transaction, advisory, certain third-party integration, and related costs; as well as fair value adjustments associated with contingent consideration arrangements.

(4) These adjustments primarily include site consolidation, severance, impairment, and other costs related to the Company’s restructuring actions.

(5) Certain venture capital and other strategic investment performance only includes recognized gains or losses on certain investments. The Company does not forecast the future performance of these investments.

(6) This item primarily relates to incremental dividends attributable to Noveprim noncontrolling interest holders who may receive preferential dividends for fiscal year 2024.

(7) These items primarily relate to (i) certain third-party legal costs related to investigations by the U.S. government into the NHP supply chain related to our Safety Assessment business; and (ii) charges associated with U.S. and international tax legislation that necessitated changes to the Company’s international financing structure.

Webcast

Charles River has scheduled a live webcast on Wednesday, August 7th, at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss matters relating to this press release. To participate, please go to ir.criver.com and select the webcast link. You can also find the associated slide presentation and reconciliations of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures on the website.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

The Company reports non-GAAP results in this press release, which exclude often-one-time charges and other items that are outside of normal operations. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the schedules at the end of this press release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, and non-GAAP net income. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude, but are not limited to, the amortization of intangible assets and the purchase accounting step-up adjustment on inventory and certain long term biological assets, and other charges and adjustments related to our acquisitions and divestitures, including incremental dividends attributable to Noveprim noncontrolling interest holders and the gain on our sale of our Avian Vaccine business; expenses associated with evaluating and integrating acquisitions and divestitures, including advisory fees and certain other transaction-related costs, as well as fair value adjustments associated with contingent consideration; charges, gains, and losses attributable to businesses or properties we plan to close, consolidate, or divest; severance and other costs associated with our restructuring initiatives; the write-off of deferred financing costs and fees related to debt financing; investment gains or losses associated with our venture capital and other strategic equity investments; certain legal costs in our Microbial Solutions business related to environmental litigation and in our Safety Assessment business related to U.S. government investigations into the NHP supply chain; tax effect of all of the aforementioned matters; and adjustments related to the recognition of deferred tax assets expected to be utilized as a result of changes to the our international financing structure and the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities as a result of foreign tax legislation. This press release also refers to our revenue on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis: “organic revenue growth,” which we define as reported revenue growth adjusted for foreign currency translation, acquisitions, and divestitures. We exclude these items from the non-GAAP financial measures because they are outside our normal operations. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures, as they are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different than non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In particular, we believe that the inclusion of supplementary non-GAAP financial measures in this press release helps investors to gain a meaningful understanding of our core operating results and future prospects without the effect of these often-one-time charges, and is consistent with how management measures and forecasts the Company's performance, especially when comparing such results to prior periods or forecasts. We believe that the financial impact of our acquisitions and divestitures (and in certain cases, the evaluation of such acquisitions and divestitures, whether or not ultimately consummated) is often large relative to our overall financial performance, which can adversely affect the comparability of our results on a period-to-period basis. In addition, certain activities and their underlying associated costs, such as business acquisitions, generally occur periodically but on an unpredictable basis. We calculate non-GAAP integration costs to include third-party integration costs incurred post-acquisition. Presenting revenue on an organic basis allows investors to measure our revenue growth exclusive of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency exchange fluctuations more clearly. Non-GAAP results also allow investors to compare the Company’s operations against the financial results of other companies in the industry who similarly provide non-GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company intends to continue to assess the potential value of reporting non-GAAP results consistent with applicable rules and regulations. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in this press release, and can also be found on the Company’s website at ir.criver.com.

Charles River management believes that supplementary non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to allow investors to gain a meaningful understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, without the effect of often-one-time charges and other items which are outside our normal operations, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance. The supplementary non-GAAP financial measures included are not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company intends to continue to assess the potential value of reporting non-GAAP results consistent with applicable rules, regulations and guidance.

(2)

These adjustments are related to the evaluation and integration of acquisitions, which primarily include transaction, third-party integration, and certain compensation costs, and fair value adjustments associated with contingent consideration arrangements.

(3)
