Medicure Reports Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results

WINNIPEG, Nov. 9, 2016 /CNW/ - Medicure Inc. ("Medicure" or the "Company") (TSXV:MPH, OTCQB:MCUJF), a specialty pharmaceutical company, today reported its results from operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Quarter Ended September 30, 2016 Highlights:

Recorded net revenue of $8.2 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of 51% compared to $5.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015;

Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)¹ for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $2.9 million compared to $2.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015;

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $2.0 million, compared to a net loss of $348,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015;

Financial Results

Net revenue from the sale of AGGRASTAT^® (tirofiban HCl) finished product for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $8.2 million compared to $5.4 million for quarter ended September 30, 2015, an increase of 51%. Net revenue from the sale of AGGRASTAT finished product for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $22.0 million compared to $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of 75%.

The increase in revenue compared to the comparable quarter and nine month period for the previous year is primarily attributable to an increase in the number of new hospital customers using AGGRASTAT and the continued increase in market share held by the product. Revenue growth for the nine month period was also aided by favourable fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate throughout the period when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $2.9 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 which was adjusted for a $1.9 million filing fee with the FDA and $174,000 of share-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 after adjusting for $1.3 million of share-based compensation (a non-cash expense item) and $346,000 relating to on-going costs pertaining to a one-time FDA filing, was $7.3 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 which was adjusted for a $1.9 million filing fee with the FDA and $915,000 of share-based compensation.

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $2.0 million or $0.13 per share, compared to a net loss of $348,000 or $0.02 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $3.2 million or $0.22 per share compared to $194,000 or $0.01 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 is the result of higher revenues, when compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was partially offset by higher selling, general and administration expenses. The increase in selling, general and administration expenses is primarily due to an increased number of staff, resulting in higher personnel expenses and higher selling costs associated with the growth in AGGRASTAT revenues.

At September 30, 2016, the Company had cash totaling $8.8 million compared to $3.6 million as of December 31, 2015. The increase in cash is due to higher revenues and the associated net income after adjusting for non-cash items. Cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $4.8 million compared to $327,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

All amounts referenced herein are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

Note:

⁽¹⁾ The Company defines EBITDA as "earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income or expense" and Adjusted EBITDA as "EBITDA adjusted for non-cash and one-time items". The terms "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA", as it relates to the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 results, prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), do not have any standardized meaning according to IFRS. It is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
