Discussion of Third Quarter Results

• Revenue in the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, excluding Software as a Service, grew by 10 percent compared to the prior year period, driven by strong sales across our mask and device product portfolios.
• Revenue in combined Europe, Asia and other markets grew by 6 percent on a constant currency basis compared to the same period of the prior year. Mask sales were strong across these markets. As expected, device sales in France and Japan were impacted as customers completed their connected device upgrade programs. Device sales outside France and Japan grew well.
• Software as a Service revenue increased by 101 percent, compared to the prior year period, due to continued growth in our Brightree service offerings and incremental contribution from the acquisition of MatrixCare, which closed in the second quarter and HEALTHCAREfirst, which closed in the first quarter.
• Gross margin expanded by 100 basis points over the prior year period, primarily due to higher margin contribution from MatrixCare, benefits from manufacturing and procurement efficiencies and product mix changes, partially offset by declines in average selling prices.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 11 percent compared to the prior year period, or by 17 percent on a constant currency basis. Excluding the impact of recent acquisitions, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 6 percent on a constant currency basis. SG&A expenses improved to 24.8 percent of revenue in the quarter, compared with 25.0 percent in the same period of the prior year.
• Income from operations and non-GAAP income from operations increased by 15 percent compared to the prior year period.
• Net income decreased by 4 percent, predominantly attributable to the impact of recent acquisitions, higher interest and income tax expense compared to the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP net income decreased by 3 percent compared to the prior year period. Non-GAAP measures adjust for amortization of acquired intangibles, MatrixCare deferred revenue, and the impact of U.S. tax reform.
• GAAP diluted earnings per share decreased by 4 percent, predominantly attributable to impact of recent acquisitions, higher interest and income tax expense compared to the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were 3 percent lower compared with the same period of the prior year.
• Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $139.6 million, compared to net income in the current quarter of $105.4 million. During the quarter we paid $53.0 million in dividends.

Other Business and Operational Highlights

• Completed the acquisition of Propeller Health, a digital therapeutics company providing connected health solutions for people living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, for $225.0 million.
• Announced the broad availability of Mobi, ResMed’s premier portable oxygen concentrator, offering an optimal balance of oxygen delivery, weight, and battery life for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other chronic diseases.
• Introduced AirFit N30i, ResMed’s first top-of-head CPAP mask, expanding the mask portfolio with an option to keep tubing out of the wearer’s way, letting them move and sleep in any position.
• Announced an agreement to settle all outstanding patent infringement disputes with Fisher & Paykel Healthcare.
• Announced the acquisition of HB Healthcare, a fast-growing, privately held South Korean home medical equipment provider, expanding ResMed’s leading role in Korea’s CPAP and respiratory care market.

Dividend program

The ResMed board of directors today declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.37 per share. The dividend will have a record date of May 9, 2019, payable on June 13, 2019. The dividend will be paid in U.S. currency to holders of ResMed’s common stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Holders of Chess Depositary Instruments trading on the Australian Securities Exchange will receive an equivalent amount in Australian currency, based on the exchange rate on the record date, and reflecting the 10:1 ratio between CDIs and NYSE shares. The ex-dividend date will be May 8, 2019 for common stockholders and for CDI holders. ResMed has received a waiver from the ASX’s settlement operating rules, which will allow ResMed to defer processing conversions between its common stock and CDI registers from May 8, 2019 through May 9, 2019, inclusive.

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 when evaluating ResMed’s performance from core operations and provides consistent financial reporting. The use of non-GAAP measures is intended to supplement, and not to replace, the 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.           RESMED INC.
