FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J., Feb. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX), a leading global medical technology company, today reported quarterly revenues of $5.315 billion for the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020. This represents an increase of 25.8% over the prior-year period on a reported basis and was primarily driven by the contribution of BD's COVID-19 diagnostic revenues, which totaled $867 million, contributing 20.5 percentage points to the company's total reported revenue growth in the quarter. On a currency-neutral basis, revenues increased 24.3%.

"BD's strong revenue and EPS growth reflect solid execution across the company and positive momentum to start fiscal 2021," said Tom Polen, CEO and president of BD. "While the market continues to be dynamic with the COVID-19 pandemic, BD has emerged as an essential partner to help the world respond to the COVID-19 pandemic from diagnostics to devices used in treatment to injection devices for vaccines and real-time surveillance and reporting. I'm proud of the worldwide BD team for their COVID-19 response efforts and support of healthcare providers around the world. We are focused on driving our BD 2025 Grow-Simplify-Empower strategic initiatives which include bringing new and exciting innovations to the health care markets, expanding access globally and creating value for our shareholders. To that end, we continue to make solid progress."

First Fiscal Quarter 2021 Operating Results
As reported, diluted EPS for the first fiscal quarter were $3.35, compared with $0.87 in the prior-year period, which represents an increase of 285.1%. Adjusted diluted EPS were $4.55, compared with $2.65 in the prior-year period, which represents an increase of 71.7%, or 73.6% on a currency-neutral basis.

Segment Results
In the BD Medical segment, worldwide revenues for the first fiscal quarter of $2.261 billion increased 8.2% versus the prior-year period on a reported basis and 6.9% on a currency-neutral basis driven by growth from all four business units. Growth in our Medication Delivery Solutions and Medication Management Solutions business units reflect solid execution as well as higher patient acuity and increased demand for products and solutions used in the treatment and prevention of COVID-19. In addition, continued demand for our pre-fillable syringe portfolio drove continued strength in the Pharmaceutical Systems unit. Revenue growth in Diabetes Care reflects the benefit of the timing of orders in the U.S. as well as an easier comparison to the prior year.

In the BD Life Sciences segment, worldwide revenues for the quarter of $1.979 billion increased 76.2% over the prior-year period as reported, or 74.1% on a currency-neutral basis. COVID-19 diagnostic revenues were $867 million, which includes BD Veritor™ Plus System revenues of $688 million, with the remaining revenues related to the BD Max™ COVID-19 tests and specimen collection and transport. There was continued improvement in routine diagnostic testing and specimen collection as procedure volumes recovered but remained below pre-COVID levels. As expected, revenues in the Biosciences unit declined, as the continued recovery in research and clinical lab activity and the benefit from COVID-19 vaccine research was more than offset by a difficult comparison from the prior year benefit of licensing revenues.

In the BD Interventional segment, worldwide revenues for the quarter of $1.075 billion increased 6.2% over the prior-year period as reported and 5.0% on a currency-neutral basis. The segment's performance reflects greater resiliency in both elective and routine outpatient procedure volumes in the U.S. in the Surgery and Peripheral Intervention business units. Volumes also benefited from practitioners working through their patient backlog during the quarter. Within the Surgery unit, strong growth in infection prevention was offset by ongoing headwinds related to lower procedures due to the pandemic. In the Peripheral Intervention unit, solid performance was driven by our suite of peripheral artery disease products. The Urology & Critical Care unit delivered solid performance in acute urology and targeted temperature monitoring.

Geographic Results
First fiscal quarter U.S. revenues of $3.130 billion increased 28.8% over the prior-year period. Performance in the U.S. was primarily driven by strong sales related to COVID-19 diagnostics.

Revenues outside of the U.S. of $2.186 billion increased 21.8% from the prior-year period on a reported basis and 18.2% on a currency-neutral basis, primarily driven by strong performance in Europe in the BD Medical and BD Life Sciences segments.

Recent Business Highlights
The company expanded its solutions to address the COVID-19 pandemic while continuing to invest in its innovation-driven growth strategy. During the first fiscal quarter and in recent weeks:

BD announced CE mark for BD Multitest™ 6-Color TBNK Reagent with BD Trucount™ Tubes that in conjunction with clinical findings and the results of other laboratory testing may help clinicians determine the risks of intubation with mechanical ventilation and also of mortality in COVID-19 patients, aiding in patient management decisions. (February 3)
The company announced a first-of-its-kind, randomized clinical trial published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases that outlines potential new standard-setting best practices for peripheral IV catheters. (February 2)
BD announced the publication of a peer-reviewed study that shows BD's antigen test may be more selective than PCR (polymerase chain reaction) molecular tests at detecting people who are contagious and able to spread COVID-19 disease. The new clinical data was published Jan. 22, 2021 in Clinical Infectious Diseases, an official journal of the Infectious Diseases Society of America. (January 25)
The company launched its BD® AbSeq Immune Discovery Panel which enables researchers to uncover up to 30 immune markers in a single experiment.

BD donated 2.5 million insulin syringes to Direct Relief for the Life for a Child Program in support of children with Type 1 diabetes in 25 countries, including Bolivia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Madagascar, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda.

Fiscal 2021 Outlook for Full Year
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global economy and health care utilization trends. The company's fiscal 2021 outlook includes several assumptions, including no significant change in utilization or procedure volumes associated with COVID-19 resurgences. Management will discuss its outlook and several assumptions on its first fiscal quarter earnings call.

The company now expects fiscal year 2021 revenues to grow 12% to 14% on an as reported basis and 10% to 12% on a currency-neutral basis. This compares to the company's prior guidance of high single to low double-digit revenue growth on a reported basis. Foreign currency is expected to contribute approximately 200 basis points to revenue growth versus the prior guidance of approximately 100 basis points.

The company expects fiscal year 2021 adjusted diluted EPS to be between $12.75 and $12.85 compared to its prior guidance range of between $12.40 and $12.60. The current adjusted EPS guidance range represents growth of approximately 25% to 26% over fiscal 2020 adjusted diluted EPS of $10.20, and includes a contribution of approximately 100 basis points from foreign currency compared to prior guidance of about 50 basis points. On a currency-neutral basis, adjusted diluted EPS are expected to grow 24% to 25%.

Adjusted diluted EPS for fiscal 2021 excludes potential charges or gains that may be recorded during the fiscal year, such as, among other things, the non-cash amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related charges, and certain tax matters. BD does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP EPS guidance to the comparable GAAP measure because the impact and timing of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of BD's financial performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures/Financial Tables
This news release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these and other non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures are included in the attached financial tables. Within the attached financial tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages and earnings per share amounts presented are calculated from the underlying amounts.

Current and prior-year adjusted diluted earnings per share results exclude, among other things, the impact of purchase accounting adjustments (including the non-cash amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets); integration, restructuring and transaction costs; transactional and product related impacts; and the loss on debt extinguishment. We also provide these measures, as well as revenues, on a currency-neutral basis after eliminating the effect of foreign currency translation, where applicable. We calculate foreign currency-neutral percentages by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. Reconciliations of these amounts to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the tables at the end of this release.
