AUDUBON, PA, April 29, 2014: Globus Medical, Inc. (NYSE:GMED), a leading musculoskeletal implant manufacturer, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Non-GAAP EPS was $0.24
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA was 36.8% of sales
 
"We are pleased with our results this quarter, having executed well on both the top and bottom lines while delivering strong cash flow. With the launch of five new products this quarter we have the momentum to maintain and expand our industry leading product portfolio," commented David Paul, Chairman and CEO. "We also demonstrated additional operating leverage with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 36.8%, a 300 basis point improvement over last year, demonstrating our continued ability to increase operating leverage in our business."

First quarter net sales were $114.2 million, as compared to $105.0 million last year, representing an 8.8% increase. Sales in the US grew by 5.6%, over the first quarter of 2013. International sales, representing 10.9% of total sales, grew by 43.0% over the same quarter in 2013.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was 36.8% of net sales, compared to 33.8% for the first quarter last year. Non-GAAP net income, which excludes the provision for litigation, for the quarter was $22.8 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, as compared to $19.9 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for 2013. GAAP net income for the quarter was $21.1 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, as compared to $19.9 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2013.

enable surgeons to promote healing in patients with musculoskeletal disorders.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures. For example, Adjusted EBITDA, which represents net income before interest (income)/expense, net and other non-operating expenses, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration and provision for litigation, net, is useful as an additional measure of operating performance, and particularly as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period, as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance, and it removes the effect of our capital structure, asset base, income taxes and interest income and expense. Our management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections. In addition, for the periods ended March 31, 2014 and for other comparative periods, we are presenting non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, which represent net income and diluted earnings per share, respectively, before provision for litigation, net, which is net of the tax effects of such provision. We believe these non-GAAP measures are also useful indicators of our operating performance, and particularly as additional measures of comparative operative performance from period to period as they remove the effects of litigation, which we believe are not reflective of underlying business trends. We also define the non-GAAP measure of Free Cash Flow as the net cash provided by operating activities less the cash impact of purchases of property and equipment. We believe that this financial measure provides meaningful information for evaluating our overall financial performance for comparative periods as it facilitates an assessment of funds available to satisfy current and future obligations and fund acquisitions.

Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and Free Cash Flow are not calculated in conformity with U.S. GAAP within the meaning of Item 10 of Regulation S-K. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures do not include certain expenses that may be necessary to evaluate our liquidity or operating results. Our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and Free Cash Flow may differ from that of other companies and therefore may not be comparable.
