“I am extremely proud of our team’s fourth quarter execution. In addition to strong growth in adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, and adjusted earnings per share, we also reported record quarterly revenue of $33.9 million”, said Jeffrey Duchemin, President and CEO of Harvard Bioscience. “Our strong fourth quarter results reflect our successful integration of our acquisition of Data Sciences International (DSI) while continuing to execute on our overall strategy. Looking back at 2018, we successfully transformed Harvard Bioscience into a pure play life science instrumentation company with the acquisition of DSI and sale of Denville Scientific. It was also a great year for innovation with product launches in telemetry, electrophysiology, and electroporation, expanding our applications in key life science research markets in order to better serve our customers.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

In this press release, we have included non-GAAP financial information including adjusted revenue, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted share. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with an enhanced understanding of the underlying operations of the business. For the periods presented, these non-GAAP financial measures of revenue and income have excluded certain revenue and expenses and income primarily resulting from purchase accounting or events that we do not believe are related to the underlying operations of the business such as currency translation, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, costs related to acquisition, disposition and integration initiatives, impairment charges, gains or losses from divestitures, forensic investigation and remediation costs, severance and restructuring expenses, and stock-based compensation expense. They also exclude the tax impact of the reconciling items. This non-GAAP financial information approximates information used by our management to internally evaluate the operating results of the Company. Tabular reconciliations of our non-GAAP adjusted revenue, non-GAAP adjusted gross profit, non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share for the three months and years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are included as exhibits below in this press release.

 

The non-GAAP financial information provided in this press release should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, the financial information provided and presented in accordance with GAAP.
