RALEIGH, N.C., July 30, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- INC Research Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:INCR), a leading global Phase I to Phase IV contract research organization, today reported financial results for the second quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2015.
"INC Research delivered a strong quarter highlighted by improving gross margins, revenue growth above the industry average and strong new business awards," said Jamie Macdonald, Chief Executive Officer. "On the customer front, we continue to see strong repeat business while winning new awards from new customers with novel molecules exploring innovative approaches for patients. Our launch during the quarter of the CRO industry's first Site Advocacy Group has been highly successful with positive customer feedback, holding significant potential to improve the way in which clinical trials are conducted in the future. We are excited to be at the forefront of these collaborations and look forward to delivering a strong second half of the year."
Second Quarter 2015 Results
Net service revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by 14.2% to $227.4 million, compared to adjusted net service revenue of $199.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net service revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased by 14.4% to $438.9 million, compared to adjusted net service revenue of $383.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Adjusted net service revenue for the second quarter of 2014 excludes an estimated $4.5 million in net service revenue from higher-than-normal contract change order activity that the Company believes is not representative of ongoing operations. Net service revenue growth during both the second quarter and first half of 2015 was primarily driven by continued strong awards over the last two years, a lower cancellation rate of previously awarded business and a positive revenue mix. In 2015, revenue grew across all therapeutic areas and has been particularly strong in the CNS, Oncology and other complex therapeutic areas. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates resulted in an unfavorable impact of $11.3 million and $20.4 million, respectively, on net service revenue compared to the same periods in the prior year.
Income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased 356.5% to $35.9 million, compared to $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased 204.3% to $68.3 million, compared to $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Operating margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was 15.8% and 15.6%, respectively, compared to 3.9% and 5.8% for the same periods in the prior year.
The Company's income from operations includes certain expenses and transactions that the Company believes are not representative of its core operations. Excluding these items, adjusted income from operations was $48.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $30.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, representing growth of 60.1%. Adjusted income from operations was $95.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $56.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, representing growth of 69.5%. Adjusted operating margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, was 21.5% and 21.7%, respectively, compared to 15.3% and 14.7% for the same periods in 2014.
The Company reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 of $23.3 million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $0.39, compared to a net income of $15.2 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $48.6 million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $0.79, compared to a net income of $13.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Adjusted net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $28.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared to $11.1 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Adjusted net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $54.9 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $17.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased 49.9% to $53.3 million, up from $35.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased 53.4% to $104.5 million, up from $68.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased from 17.9% and 17.7%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, to 23.4% and 23.8%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the overall impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on net income, adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA was not significant.

New Business Awards and Backlog
Backlog grew by 12.3% from $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2014 to $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2015. For the six and twelve months ended June 30, 2015, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates resulted in an unfavorable impact on our June 30, 2015 backlog in the amount of $25.9 million and $73.2 million, respectively, primarily due to the weakening of the Euro and British Pound against the U.S. dollar. Net new business awards were $295.9 million, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3x, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $103.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net new business awards were $551.4 million, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3x, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $384.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations, and assumptions contained in this press release, including our updated 2015 guidance, are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results might differ materially from those explicit or implicit in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in our financial results; our ability to maintain or generate new business awards; our backlog not being indicative of future revenues and our ability to realize the anticipated future revenue reflected in our backlog; our ability to adequately price our contracts and not overrun cost estimates; our customer or therapeutic area concentration; international economic, political and other risks; our ability to increase our market share, grow our business and execute our growth strategies; and the other risk factors set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and other SEC filings, copies of which are available free of charge on our website at investor.incresearch.com. INC Research assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Net Service Revenue, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Net Income (including Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the Company.
The Company defines Adjusted Net Service Revenue as net service revenue excluding the impact of higher-than-normal change order activity that occurred during 2014.
The Company defines Adjusted Income from Operations as income from operations excluding the higher-than-normal revenue change order activity and certain expenses and transactions that the Company believes are not representative of its core operations, namely, management fees that terminated in connection with the Company's initial public offering, acquisition-related amortization, restructuring costs, transaction expenses, stock compensation expense, contingent consideration related to acquisitions, and asset impairment charges. The Company defines Adjusted Operating Margin as adjusted income from operations as a percent of adjusted net service revenue.
The Company defines Adjusted Net Income (including Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share) as net income (including diluted earnings per share) excluding debt refinancing expenses, loss on extinguishment of debt, other income (expense) and the items excluded from adjusted income from operations mentioned previously. After giving effect to these items and other unusual tax impacts during the period, the Company has also included an adjustment to its income tax rate to reflect the expected long-term income tax rate.
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the higher-than-normal revenue change order activity and certain expenses and transactions that the Company believes are not representative of its core operations, namely, management fees that terminated in connection with the Company's initial public offering, restructuring costs, transaction expenses, stock compensation expense, contingent consideration related to acquisitions, asset impairment charges, debt refinancing expenses, loss on extinguishment of debt and other income (expense). The Company presents EBITDA because it believes it is a useful metric for investors as it is commonly used by investors, analysts and debt holders to measure the Company's ability to service its debt obligations, fund capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements.
The non-GAAP measures noted above are used by management and the Board to evaluate the Company's core operating results as they exclude certain items whose fluctuations from period-to-period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the core operations of the business. Adjusted Net Service Revenue, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, and Adjusted Net Income (including Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share) are used by management and the Board to assess its business, as well as by investors and analysts, to measure the Company's performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also a useful metric for management and investors to measure the Company's ability to service its debt obligations.
Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures included in this press release and the accompanying tables.

| (k) Adjustment for the income tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments made to arrive at adjusted net income using the estimated effective tax rate of 36% in 2015 and 37% in 2014. In 2015 and 2014, the Company's effective tax rate has been adjusted in order to reflect the removal of the tax impact of its valuation allowances recorded against its deferred tax assets and changes in the assertion to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Historically, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against some of its deferred tax assets, but believes that these valuation allowances cause significant fluctuations in its financial results that are not indicative of the Company's underlying financial performance. Specifically, the majority of the Company's revenue was generated in jurisdictions in which it recognized no tax expense or benefit due to changes in this valuation allowance. In addition, 2015 has also been adjusted for the elimination of a $2.6 million benefit from the release of a reserve for a pre-acquisition uncertain tax position associated with Kendle. | ||||

| (b) Income tax expense is calculated and the adjustments are tax-affected at an approximate rate of 36%, which is the midpoint of our range for the expected income tax rate of 35% to 37%. This adjustment also excludes the impact of the valuation allowances recorded against our deferred tax assets and other unusual tax impacts during the period. Historically, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against some of its deferred tax assets, but believes that these valuation allowances cause significant fluctuations in its financial results that are not indicative of the Company's underlying financial performance. | ||||
