SAN DIEGO, Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ResMed Inc. (NYSE: RMD) today announced results for its quarter ended December 31, 2015. Revenue for the quarter was $454.5 million, a 7 percent increase compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014; this is a 13 percent increase on a constant currency basis.

"We remain focused on delivering strong long-term growth from our sleep-disordered breathing and respiratory care businesses. Our team continued to deliver double-digit constant currency growth this quarter," said Mick Farrell, ResMed's chief executive officer. "Our Americas region was a significant contributor this quarter, as our customers continued to show their strong preference for our offerings, including Air Solutions cloud-based software, AirSense devices, and AirFit patient interface systems.

"We have expanded our respiratory care business into the field of long-term oxygen therapy. Last week we announced a definitive agreement to acquire Inova Labs in Austin, Texas. This will add portable oxygen concentrators, complementing our non-invasive ventilators, and providing yet another ResMed therapy option for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD."

Farrell continued, "In the 15 months since we launched our Air Solutions platform, ResMed has transformed into a tech-driven medical device company. As the global leader of connected care for medical devices, we are liberating healthcare data, improving outcomes, and unlocking value by providing actionable information for patients, physicians, providers and payors, literally every morning."

Analysis of second quarter results
In the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, revenue in the Americas was $269.5 million, a 17 percent increase over the prior year's quarter. Revenue in combined EMEA and APAC was $185.0 million, a 4 percent decrease compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014; this is a 7 percent increase on a constant currency basis.

Gross margin in the second quarter was 58.6 percent, but this included a one-time benefit relating to the release of $2.4 million in accrued expenses associated with the SERVE-HF field safety notice. Excluding this benefit, gross margin for Q2 FY16 was 58.1 percent; this is lower than the prior year's quarter, mainly due to declines in average selling prices and an unfavorable geographic and product mix.

Income from operations for the quarter was $108.0 million, a 1 percent decrease compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014. Non-GAAP income from operations for the quarter was $116.9 million, a 5 percent increase compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $118.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, a 4 percent decrease over the quarter ended December 31, 2014; this is a 4 percent increase on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses improved to 26.0 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 29.0 percent in the quarter ended December 31, 2014.

Research and development expenses were $29.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2016, or 6.4 percent of revenue. R&D expenses decreased by 1 percent compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014; this is a 14 percent increase on a constant currency basis.

Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $4.4 million during the quarter. Stock-based compensation costs incurred during the quarter of $11.5 million consisted of expenses associated with employee equity grants, and the company's employee stock purchase plan.

Net income for the quarter was $90.5 million, a 1 percent decrease compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014. Non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was $97.5 million, a 5 percent increase compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2014 (non-GAAP measures exclude the SERVE-HF accrual release, amortization of acquired intangibles, and $5.2 million in net restructuring expenses associated with rationalizing our European facilities).

GAAP diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.64.

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.69.

Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $147.4 million.

The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed's common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

    (A)                ResMed excludes the impact of
                       release of SERVE-HF accrual,
                       restructuring expenses and
                       amortization of acquired
                       intangible assets from their
                       evaluation of ongoing operations
                       and believes investors benefit
                       from excluding these charges to
                       facilitate a more meaningful
                       evaluation of current operating
                       performance.


                      ResMed believes that diluted
                       earnings per share, which
                       exclude the impact of the SERVE-
                       HF accrual release,
                       restructuring expenses and
                       amortization of acquired
                       intangible assets, is an
                       additional measure of
                       performance investors can use to
                       compare operating results
                       between reporting periods.


                      ResMed uses non-GAAP information
                       internally in planning,
                       forecasting, and evaluating the
                       results of operations in the
                       current period and in comparing
                       it to past periods. ResMed
                       believes this information
                       provides investors better
                       insight in evaluating ResMed's
                       performance from core operations
                       and provides consistent
                       financial reporting. Our use of
                       non-GAAP measures is intended
                       to supplement, and not to
                       replace, our presentation of net
                       income and other GAAP measures.
                       Like all non-GAAP measures,
                       non-GAAP earnings are subject
                       to inherent limitations because
                       they do not include all the
                       expenses that must be included
                       under GAAP.
