Thermo Fisher Scientific Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (NYSE: TMO), the world leader in serving science, today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Third quarter revenue was $10.57 billion, 1% lower versus the same quarter last year. Core organic revenue growth was 1%.
  • Third quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $4.42, 17% higher versus the same quarter last year, driven by 160 basis points of operating margin expansion.
  • Third quarter adjusted EPS was $5.69, 12% higher versus the same quarter last year, driven by 200 basis points of adjusted operating margin expansion.
  • The impact of the macroeconomic conditions that the industry has experienced through the year increased in the third quarter. Our PPI Business System and strong execution by our global team enabled the company to deliver strong financial performance for the quarter.
  • Advanced our proven growth strategy, launching a range of high-impact, innovative new products, including the groundbreaking EXENT® Solution in Europe, an offering from our protein diagnostics business, to help diagnose and monitor patients with blood protein abnormalities related to multiple myeloma and other disorders; the Gibco™ CTS™ Detachable Dynabeads™, our next-generation platform of cell therapy reagents that enables process flexibility, scalability and higher drug efficacy for cell therapy manufacturers; and the Thermo Scientific™ Fill Finish Solution™, to improve the efficiency of the sterile fill-finish process, a great example of innovation for drug manufacturing.
  • Shortly after the quarter ended, announced an agreement to acquire Olink Holding AB (publ) (“Olink”) (Nasdaq: OLK) for a net purchase price of approximately $3.1 billion. Olink is a provider of differentiated next-generation proteomic solutions that enable our customers to meaningfully accelerate discovery and scientific breakthroughs and is highly complementary to our leading mass spectrometry and life sciences offerings.
  • Building on our environmental, social and governance (ESG) priorities, we are collaborating with the National Minority Quality Forum (NMQF) to make clinical research more accessible to historically underserved communities. The collaboration supports biopharmaceutical and biotech customers’ desire to increase diversity in clinical trials by enrolling and retaining patients who more fully reflect real-world populations.

“While market conditions further weakened during the third quarter, I’m very pleased with our team’s execution which enabled our company to deliver both excellent margin expansion and adjusted EPS growth,” said Marc Casper, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Fisher Scientific. “Our experienced management team is leveraging our PPI Business System to effectively manage through the current dynamic environment. We also continue to invest for the future and a great example of this is our recently announced agreement to acquire Olink.”

Casper added, “We are incredibly focused on delivering differentiated short-term performance while enhancing our long-term competitive position.”

(a) Adjusted results in 2023 and in 2022 exclude charges for the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition and charges for inventory write-downs associated with large-scale abandonment of product lines. Adjusted results in 2023 also exclude $10 of accelerated depreciation on manufacturing assets to be abandoned due to facility consolidations.

(b) Adjusted results in 2023 and 2022 exclude certain third-party expenses, principally transaction/integration costs related to recent acquisitions, charges/credits for changes in estimates of contingent acquisition consideration, and charges associated with product liability litigation.

(c) Adjusted results in 2023 and 2022 exclude restructuring and other costs consisting principally of severance, impairments of long-lived assets, abandoned facility and other expenses of headcount reductions and real estate consolidations. Adjusted results in 2023 also exclude $26 of contract termination costs associated with facility closures, $18 of net charges for pre-acquisition litigation and other matters, and $8 of net gains on the sale of real estate.

(d) Adjusted results in 2023 and 2022 exclude net gains/losses on investments. Adjusted results in 2022 also exclude $26 of losses on the early extinguishment of debt.

(e) Adjusted provision for income taxes in 2023 and 2022 excludes incremental tax impacts for the reconciling items between GAAP and adjusted net income, incremental tax impacts as a result of tax rate/law changes and the tax impacts from audit settlements (including a $658 benefit from an audit settlement in 2022). Adjusted results in 2022 also exclude a $423 charge for the impact of deferred tax realizability assessments as a result of audit settlements.

(f) Adjusted results exclude the incremental impacts for the reconciling items between GAAP and adjusted net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Notes:

Consolidated depreciation expense is $792 and $730 in 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures such as organic revenue growth, which is reported revenue growth, excluding the impacts of revenues from acquired businesses and the effects of currency translation. We also report Core organic revenue growth, which is reported revenue growth, excluding the impacts of COVID-19 testing revenue, and excluding the impacts of acquisitions and currency translation. We report these measures because Thermo Fisher management believes that in order to understand the company’s short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of acquisitions, foreign currency translation and/or COVID-19 testing on revenues. Thermo Fisher management uses these measures to forecast and evaluate the operational performance of the company as well as to compare revenues of current periods to prior periods.

We report adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, helps investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the company’s core operating performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods, forecasts, and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. To calculate these measures we exclude, as applicable:

  • Certain acquisition-related costs, including charges for the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition, significant transaction/acquisition-related costs, including changes in estimates of contingent acquisition-related consideration, and other costs associated with obtaining short-term financing commitments for pending/recent acquisitions. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.
  • Costs/income associated with restructuring activities and large-scale abandonments of product lines, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We exclude these costs because we believe that the costs related to restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.
  • Equity in earnings/losses of unconsolidated entities; impairments of long-lived assets; and certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, including gains/losses on investments, the sale of businesses, product lines, and real estate, significant litigation-related matters, curtailments/settlements of pension plans, and the early retirement of debt. We exclude these items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.
  • The expense associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of up to 20 years. Exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.
  • The noncontrolling interest and tax impacts of the above items and the impact of significant tax audits or events (such as changes in deferred taxes from enacted tax rate/law changes), the latter of which we exclude because they are outside of our normal operations and difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

We report free cash flow, which is operating cash flow excluding net capital expenditures, to provide a view of the continuing operations’ ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. The company also uses this measure as an indication of the strength of the company. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.

Thermo Fisher Scientific does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort items such as the timing and amount of future restructuring actions and acquisition-related charges as well as gains or losses from sales of real estate and businesses, the early retirement of debt and the outcome of legal proceedings. The timing and amount of these items are uncertain and could be material to Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures of Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results of operations and cash flows included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Thermo Fisher Scientific’s results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the tables above.
