Read MoreHide Full Article

AngioDynamics, Inc. (ANGO - Free Report) reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of 3 cents for third-quarter fiscal 2022 compared with the year-ago EPS of 2 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same was pegged at a loss of a penny per share.

GAAP loss per share came in at 13 cents, wider than the year-ago loss of 9 cents.

Revenue Details

Revenues in the fiscal third quarter totaled $73.9 million, up 3.9% year over year on a reported basis (up 3.8% at constant exchange rate or CER). However, the top line lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.1%.

The company continued to see strong contributions from its Med Tech business (which includes the Thrombectomy platform, Auryon and NanoKnife) during the quarter.

Geographical Analysis

In the quarter under review, U.S. net revenues totaled $62.4 million, up 6.5% year over year.

International revenues came in at $11.5 million, down 8% from the year-ago quarter on a reported basis and down 9% at CER.

Segmental Analysis

AngioDynamics’ product offerings fall within three Global Business Units (GBUs) — Oncology/Surgery, Endovascular Therapies and Vascular Access.

The Oncology arm’s net sales in the fiscal third quarter were $12.5 million, reflecting a decline of 5% year over year, primarily as oncology-related procedures were severely impacted by the pandemic, hospital staffing disruptions and lower NanoKnife capital sales. This was partially offset by an 11% increase in NanoKnife disposable revenues in the United States.

Endovascular Therapies’ revenues in the fiscal third quarter grossed $38.1 million, up 14.5% from the year-ago period. This was driven by the continued adoption of Auryon and the thrombectomy portfolio. Auryon sales during the quarter were $7.3 million.

Revenues at the Vascular Access segment amounted to $23.4 million, down 5.6% on a year-over-year basis. The segment was impacted by supply-chain headwinds and a tight labor market that resulted in AngioDynamics’ backlog.

Our Take

AngioDynamics exited the third quarter of fiscal 2022 with better-than-expected earnings. The company continued gaining from its Med Tech business. Its year-over-year uptick in revenues along with solid performance by the Endovascular Therapies segment is impressive. Solid domestic revenues are also encouraging. Subsequent to the quarter-end, the company received FDA approval for its AlphaVac F18 thrombectomy system as well as for its Investigational Device Exemption study for the use of AlphaVac F18 to treat pulmonary embolism, raising optimism. Adjusted operating margin expansion in the fiscal third quarter bodes well for the company.

Lower-than-expected revenues in the reported quarter are worrying. Continued pandemic-led disruptions (which resulted in supply-chain headwinds) led to the backlog in the Vascular Access segment, raising our apprehension. A fall in two of the GBU revenues as well as lower international revenues during the quarter is concerning. The gross margin contraction also does not bode well.
