ATLANTA, Oct. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CryoLife, Inc. (NYSE: CRY), a leading medical device and tissue processing company focused on cardiac and vascular surgery, announced today its results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2015.
J. Patrick Mackin, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, said, "During the third quarter we made meaningful progress on many of our key strategic objectives which we expect to drive margin expansion and to enhance our growth profile beginning in 2016. Our objectives include maximizing the opportunity for our recently launched products ProCol® and PhotoFix™, pursuing our indication expansion for BioGlue in Japan, and commencing direct sales in France effective October 1, 2015. To oversee these efforts, we recently brought on a highly experienced leader to head our global sales and marketing function. We also implemented new protocols in our tissue processing business that we expect to bring greater efficiency and to allow us to improve product availability and gross margins in the coming quarters. Moreover, there were several large expenses in 2015, some of which will not likely recur in 2016. Lastly, we are active in business development, seeking to leverage our well-established relationships in cardiac and vascular surgery. We are optimistic that, through business development, we can further enhance our growth trajectory."
Revenues for the third quarter of 2015 decreased 1 percent to $36.7 million, compared to $37.1 million for the third quarter of 2014. Foreign currency exchange adversely affected revenues for the third quarter of 2015 by $336,000 or 1 percent. Product revenues were $19.9 million for the third quarter of 2015, down 3 percent from $20.4 million in the third quarter of 2014. This primarily reflects decreases in revenues in BioGlue and Cardiogenesis cardiac laser therapy, partially offset by increased revenues from the recent launches of ProCol and PhotoFix. The decrease in product revenues was primarily due to the transition to a direct sales model in France and the strengthening U.S. dollar. Tissue processing revenues were $16.8 million for the third quarter of 2015, up 1 percent compared to $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2014, driven primarily by an increase in average service fees.
Revenues for the first nine months of 2015 decreased 1 percent to $106.1 million, compared to $107.5 million for the first nine months of 2014. Foreign currency exchange adversely affected revenues for the first nine months of 2015 by $1.1 million, or 1 percent. Product revenues were $59.2 million for the first nine months of 2015, down 2 percent from $60.2 million in the first nine months of 2014. Product revenues reflect a decrease in BioGlue revenues primarily due to the transition to a direct sales model in France and the strengthening U.S. dollar, partially offset by increased revenues from the recent launches of ProCol and PhotoFix. Tissue processing revenues were $46.9 million for the first nine months of 2015, down 1 percent compared to $47.3 million for the first nine months of 2014, primarily due to a decrease in tissue shipments.
Net income for the third quarter of 2015 was $2.1 million, or $0.08 per basic and $0.07 per fully diluted common share, compared to net income of $2.3 million, or $0.08 per basic and fully diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2014. Excluding certain items as shown in the schedules below, proforma non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share was $0.10 in the third quarter of 2015, compared to $0.09 in the third quarter of 2014.
Net income for the first nine months of 2015 was $1.4 million, or $0.05 per basic and fully diluted common share, compared to net income of $5.5 million, or $0.20 per basic and $0.19 per fully diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2014. Excluding certain items as shown in the schedules below, proforma non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share was $0.13 in the first nine months of 2015, as compared to $0.18 in the first nine months of 2014.
The Company's updated 2015 financial guidance is summarized below. The guidance does not include any effect related to future business development activities.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements made in this press release and during the accompanying earnings webcast that look forward in time or that express management's beliefs, expectations, or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates, and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. These forward-looking statements include those regarding: our expected future results of operations, growth, and business outlook; progress with the ongoing launch of ProCol and PhotoFix; our ability to execute on our direct sales model, the increased efficiency and improved product availability we expect from new protocols implemented in our tissue processing business; our ability to obtain changes to the protocol for the PerClot IDE, to enroll additional clinical sites as quickly as we expect, if at all, or to obtain FDA approval for PerClot by 2018; and the ability to enhance our growth trajectory through business development activities. Forward-looking statements also include all statements that are not historical facts and may be identified by terms such as "continues," "plans," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "could," "look forward to," or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. The risks and uncertainties affecting these statements include that: the financial benefits expected from our tissue processing improvements could be less than anticipated and may not be realized within the timeframes anticipated; our beliefs regarding the market and growth opportunities for ProCol and PhotoFix may be incorrect, and even if correct, there is no guarantee that we will successfully grow ProCol and PhotoFix sales; we may not recognize the anticipated benefits from our transition to a direct sales organization in France when we expect, or at all; the market opportunity for the expanded indication for BioGlue in Japan and sales with respect to that indication may begin later, and/or be less than anticipated; continued fluctuation of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could materially, adversely affect our business; and although our guidance does not reflect activities related to ongoing or future business development activities, consummation of material business development transactions during fiscal 2015 could have a significant impact on our business and could cause our actual performance for 2015 to change materially from our current predictions. These risks and uncertainties include the risk factors detailed in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and our subsequent filings with the SEC. CryoLife does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.

Investors should consider this non-GAAP information in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial information may not be the same as similar measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP adjusted net income and adjusted income per common share excludes expenses related to one-time expenses associated with certain employee departures, including the retirement of the Company's former President, CEO, and Executive Chairman, expenses related to business development, expenses related to intangible impairment, the gain on sale of Medafor investment, and the write-off of PerClot inventory related to the injunction from the Medafor Litigation. The above non-GAAP items have been calculated using a proforma tax rate of 38% for all periods. The Company believes that this non-GAAP presentation provides useful information to investors regarding unusual non-operating transactions and the operating expense structure of the Company's existing and recently acquired operations, without regard to its ongoing efforts to acquire additional complementary products and businesses and the transaction expenses incurred in connection with recently acquired product lines. The Company does, however, expect to incur similar types of expenses in the future, and this non-GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a promise or indication that these types of expenses will not recur.
