CINCINNATI, OH, Apr 24, 2013 - (ACN Newswire) - Omnicare, Inc. (NYSE:OCR) reported today financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
First-Quarter Highlights:
-- Gross profit of $371 million; 121 basis-point expansion in gross margin rate
-- Adjusted cash earnings per diluted share 11.1% higher to $0.90; GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.51
-- Cash flows from operations of $109 million
"We are pleased to begin 2013 with a solid quarter," said John L. Workman, Omnicare's Chief Executive Officer. "As we made further progress toward our goal of achieving sustainable net organic growth within Long-Term Care, we continued to reduce costs, largely through the utilization of low-cost generic alternatives. These cost improvements, coupled with another strong quarterly performance from our Specialty Care Group and the ongoing benefits of our efficient allocation of capital, helped drive our double-digit adjusted cash earnings per diluted share increase."
First-Quarter Results
Financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared with the same prior-year period, were as follows:
-- Net sales was $1,525 million versus $1,593 million
-- Gross profit was $371 million as compared with $368 million
-- GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.51 versus $0.48
-- Adjusted cash earnings per diluted share (see "per share" discussion below and attached supplemental information) was $0.90 versus $0.81
-- Adjusted EBITDA was $172 million versus $170 million
Cash flows from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $109 million versus $100 million in the comparable prior-year quarter.
"We remain encouraged by the steps we have taken operationally," said Nitin Sahney, Omnicare's President and Chief Operating Officer. "As we continue to make refinements designed to optimize our Long-Term Care platforms, we have begun to generate some early benefits, particularly as a result of our sales transformational strategy and structural modifications to account management. Within our Specialty Care Group, we continue to see favorable client responses to our commercialization services for specialty products, with each of these platforms generating double-digit first-quarter growth."
Financial Position
Omnicare concluded the first quarter of 2013 with no borrowings outstanding on its revolving credit facility and $510 million in cash on its balance sheet.
As of March 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $220 million of availability under its current share repurchase authorization. Omnicare was unable to repurchase shares in the open market during the first quarter of 2013 due to the ongoing Accelerated Share Repurchase (ASR) agreement. The ASR is expected to reach final settlement during the second quarter of 2013.
"The first quarter was another period of strong cash flows," said Rocky Kraft, Omnicare's Chief Financial Officer. "While our ability to return capital to stockholders was limited in the first quarter due to the ongoing ASR agreement, we made additional investments in the business while improving our financial position. We expect to remain opportunistic with respect to capital allocation, redeploying our cash flows in a manner we believe is most aligned with enhancing stockholder value."

Non-GAAP Information:
Omnicare, Inc. ("Omnicare" or the "Company") management believes that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude items not considered part of the core operating results of the Company and certain non-cash charges and also includes certain tax deduction amounts ("Special Items"), enhances investors' understanding of how Omnicare management assesses the performance of the Company's business. Omnicare management uses non-GAAP measures for budgeting purposes, measuring actual results, allocating resources and in determining employee incentive compensation. Omnicare's method of calculating non-GAAP financial results may differ from those used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.
