Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
Revenues: Zimmer Biomet posted revenues of $1.95 billion which is in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues of 1.95 billion.
Key Stats: Second-quarter revenues derived from Zimmer’s Knees segment were down 2.4% year over year to $680.4 million, while Hips recorded sales of $469.8 million, down 1.5% compared with the prior-year quarter. Revenues from S.E.T (Surgical, Sports Medicine, Foot and Ankle, Extremities and Trauma) improved 2.6% year over year to $422.8 million.
Major Factors: Per management, the company increased production output from the Warsaw North Campus manufacturing facility, and continued to drive efforts to achieve best-in-class quality systems. The revenue growth did not meet the company’s expectations, due to production delays of certain key brands and slower-than-expected sales recapture from previously affected customers in the United States. The company also updated its 2017 sales and earnings guidance.
Stock Price: Following the earnings release, share prices did not show any movement in the pre-market trading session.
