EXHIBIT 99.1
HOLLISTON, Mass., Aug. 6, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Harvard Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq:HBIO), a global developer, manufacturer, and marketer of a broad range of tools to advance life science research, today reported unaudited financial highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.
Second Quarter Reported Results
Revenues from the Company's continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2009 were $18.0 million, a decrease of $5.0 million, or 21.7%, compared to revenues of $23.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Income from continuing operations, as measured under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), was $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share for the same period in 2008. In constant currency, second quarter 2009 revenues were $19.6 million, reflecting a 14.8% decrease compared with the second quarter of 2008. Currency translation had an adverse effect of approximately $0.01 per diluted share on earnings in the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008. GAAP income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2009 included $0.5 million in costs related to the Company's ongoing initiative to consolidate business functions to reduce operating expenses compared to $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2008.
Non-GAAP adjusted income from continuing operations was $1.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $2.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008. Currency translation had an adverse effect of approximately $0.01 per diluted share on earnings in the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008.
Year-to-Date Reported Results
Revenues from the Company's continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $37.1 million, a decrease of $7.9 million, or 17.5%, compared to revenues of $45.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Income from continuing operations, as measured under GAAP, was $2.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $2.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share for the same period in 2008. In constant currency, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $41.6 million, reflecting a 7.6% decrease compared with the same period in 2008. Currency translation had an adverse effect of approximately $0.02 per diluted share on earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with the same period in 2008. GAAP income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included $0.5 million in costs related to the Company's ongoing initiative to consolidate business functions to reduce operating expenses compared to $1.8 million fo r the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Non-GAAP adjusted income from continuing operations was $3.5 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $4.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008. Currency translation had an adverse effect of approximately $0.02 per diluted share on earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with the same period in 2008.
The Company ended the second quarter of 2009 with a strong balance sheet. We had net cash (cash and cash equivalents, net of debt) totaling $16.3 million at June 30, 2009, after repurchasing approximately 812,000 of the Company's shares, at a cost of $2.4 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2009. At December 31, 2008, net cash was $12.3 million. We had no borrowings under our senior credit facility at June 30, 2009 or December 31, 2008.
See Exhibits 4 and 5 of this press release for reconciliations of GAAP income from continuing operations to non-GAAP adjusted income from continuing operations and GAAP diluted earnings per common share from continuing operations to non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per common share from continuing operations.
Chane Graziano, CEO, stated, "Our earnings results for the second quarter of 2009 were consistent with our expectations although revenue was somewhat lower than expected. The stronger dollar, tough year-to-year comparisons and weakness in the economy were the major influences on our revenue. As we look to the second half of the year, we are much more optimistic because:
* June and July saw a strong pickup in orders, particularly at Harvard Apparatus, * we have a larger than usual backlog of orders, including orders for a new advanced microliter spectrophotometer, which we expect will be shipping in the third quarter of 2009, * we expect to see a favorable impact from our program of continued productivity improvements from cost reductions and business consolidations, and * we expect to see the effect of the NIH stimulus package, particularly in the fourth quarter of 2009."
Mr. Graziano continued, "However, in view of our revenues during the first half of the year, we are narrowing our guidance on non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share for 2009 to $0.27 to $0.31 in non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share, and reducing our revenue guidance for the year to $77.0 million to $80.0 million. In the third quarter of 2009, we expect revenues in the $19.0 million to $20.0 million range and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share in the $0.06 to $0.07 range."
Our updated revenue guidance was calculated using exchange rates (USD 1.6/GBP and USD 1.4/Euro) approximating July 1, 2009 rates and assumes a continuation of the business conditions as we see them at this time. The non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations guidance excludes amortization of intangible assets, the impact of future acquisitions and acquisition costs in 2009, any future restructuring actions, stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS No. 123(R) and the utilization of deferred tax assets that have full valuation allowances. See the table below for a reconciliation of our estimated non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations to our estimated GAAP earnings per diluted share from continuing operations. See Exhibits 3, 4 and 5 for reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP adjusted operating income from continuing operations, GAAP to non-GAAP adjusted income from continuing operations and non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per common sh are to US GAAP diluted earnings per common share from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

Operating Results for Continuing Operations
Three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to three months ended June 30, 2008:
Revenues decreased $5.0 million, or 21.7%, to $18.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $23.0 million for the same period in 2008. The effect of a strengthened U.S. dollar decreased the Company's second quarter revenues by $1.6 million, or 6.9%, compared with the same period in 2008. Adjusting for the effect of foreign currency fluctuation, revenues were down $3.4 million for the quarter, primarily due to the weaker economic environment this year and an exceptionally strong performance in the second quarter last year.
Cost of product revenues decreased $3.2 million, or 25.9%, to $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $12.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of product revenues includes a $0.9 million currency effect of a strengthened U.S. dollar and cost reductions in the Company's Biochrom group. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to 49.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with 46.7% for the same period in 2008. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the impact of production efficiency improvements made in our Biochrom group during 2008 and a sales mix during the quarter comprised of a greater percentage of Harvard Apparatus products, which have higher gross margins.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $0.3 million, or 9.4%, to $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to a $0.2 million currency effect and a decrease at our Scie-Plas business due to our 2009 business improvement initiative, partially offset by increased marketing efforts at our Biochrom US business. Excluding the impact of currency exchange rates, sales and marketing costs decreased 2.6% for the second quarter of 2009 from the prior year period.
General and administrative expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 6.5%, to $3.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The year-to-year quarterly decrease was primarily due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange, general and administrative expenses decreased 1.9% in the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008.
Research and development expenses were $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. Excluding the $0.1 million decrease from currency effect of foreign exchange, research and development expenses increased 10.7% for the second quarter of 2009 from the prior year period. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to increased development efforts in both the Harvard Apparatus and Biochrom groups.
Six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to six months ended June 30, 2008:
Revenues decreased $7.9 million, or 17.5%, to $37.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $45.0 million for the same period in 2008. The effect of a strengthened U.S. dollar decreased the Company's revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 by $4.5 million, or 10.0%, compared with the same period in 2008. Adjusting for the effect of foreign currency fluctuation, revenues at our Harvard Apparatus and Biochrom businesses were down $0.8 million and $2.6 million year-to-year, respectively, primarily due to the weaker economic environment this year.
Cost of product revenues decreased $5.1 million, or 21.5%, to $18.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $23.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of product revenues was primarily due to lower sales volumes, a $2.4 million currency effect and cost reductions in the Company's Biochrom group. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to 49.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with 46.9% for the same period in 2008. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the impact of a more favorable sales mix, write-downs in the prior year first quarter related to the consolidation of manufacturing facilities and production efficiency improvements.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 12.9%, to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to a $0.4 million currency effect and a decrease in salary related expenses at our Biochrom group partially offset by increased marketing efforts at our Biochrom US business. Excluding the impact of currency exchange rates, sales and marketing costs decreased 5.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from the prior year period.
General and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 9.0%, to $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The year-to-year quarterly decrease was primarily due to a $0.5 million currency effect and efficiency improvements made during 2008 in the Biochrom group. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange, general and administrative expenses decreased 2.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with the same period of 2008.
Research and development expenses were $2.1 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 3.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Excluding a $0.2 million decrease from currency effect, research and development expenses increased 6.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from the prior year period. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to increased development efforts at Harvard Apparatus.
Balance Sheet
The Company ended the second quarter of 2009 with cash and cash equivalents of $16.8 million compared to $13.7 million at December 31, 2008. As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had no borrowings outstanding on its revolving credit facility. The Company's Panlab subsidiary had $0.5 million and $1.4 million in bank debt outstanding at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Total cash and equivalents, net of debt, was $16.3 million and $12.3 million at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Trade receivables were $11.3 million and inventories were $13.5 million as of June 30, 2009 compared to trade receivables of $15.4 million and inventories of $16.2 million as of June 30, 2008. Outstanding days of sales, or DSO, were 58 days for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 61 days for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Inventory turns were 2.8 times for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared with 3.0 times for the same period of 2008.
The Company spent $2.4 million to repurchase approximately 812,000 shares of its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2009.
Restructuring
During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the management of Harvard Bioscience initiated a plan to relocate the Scie-Plas operation and exit its general fabrication business as part of its ongoing business improvement initiative. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we recorded charges relating to this plan of approximately $55,000. These charges were comprised of $9,000 in severance payments, $28,000 in inventory impairment charges related to the discontinuance of certain product lines (included in cost of product revenues) and $18,000 in various other costs.
We recorded additional restructuring charges in our Scie-Plas, Biochrom and Hoefer businesses related to the 2009 restructuring plan of approximately $0.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. These charges were comprised of $0.2 million in severance payments, $0.1 million in inventory impairment charges related to the discontinuance of certain product lines (included in cost of product revenues) and $0.2 million in various other costs.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the management of Harvard Bioscience committed to an ongoing initiative to consolidate business functions to reduce operating expenses. Our actions in 2008 were related to the separation of our electrophoresis product lines from our spectrophotometer and plate reader product lines. As part of these initiatives we made changes in management, completed the consolidation of the Hoefer electrophoresis administrative and marketing operations from San Francisco, California to the headquarters of the Harvard Apparatus business in Holliston, Massachusetts and consolidated the activities of our Asys Hitech subsidiary in Austria to the Company's Biochrom subsidiary's facility located in Cambridge UK. The combined costs of these activities recorded in the year ended December 31, 2008 were $1.8 million, of which $0.9 million was recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Discontinued Operations
In September 2008, we completed the sale of assets of our Union Biometrica Division including our German subsidiary, Union Biometrica GmbH, representing at that time the remaining portion of our Capital Equipment Business Segment. Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated, the discussion of our business is focused on our continuing operations, which constitute our Apparatus and Instrumentation businesses.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In this press release, we have included non-GAAP financial information including adjusted operating income from continuing operations, adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations. 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 income have excluded certain expenses primarily resulting from purchase accounting or events that we do not believe are related to the underlying operations of the business such as amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, fair value adjustments of inventory and backlog related to acquisitions, asset write-down expenses, costs related to acquisition initiatives, restructuring expenses (including related inventory write-downs), discontinued operations and stock-based compensation expense. They also exclude the tax impact of the reconciling items and the utilization of deferred tax assets that have full valuation allowances. 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 income from continuing operations and earnings per diluted share from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and changes in total revenue compared to the same period of the prior year from continuing operations 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.
