Codman Specialty Surgical (~65% of Revenues)

Total revenues were $249.8 million, representing reported decline of 2.6% and organic growth of 1.6% compared to the third quarter of 2021, driven by strength in both advanced energy and CSF management partially offset by the impact of the CereLink recall in neuro monitoring.

2022 Outlook

For the full year 2022, the Company is reaffirming its revenue expectations at the midpoint of its August 2022 guidance with a tightened range of $1,551 million to $1,563 million. The revenue range represents reported growth of 0.5% to 1.3%, inclusive of the divestiture of the TWC business and an updated foreign currency outlook, with organic growth of 3.7% to 4.5%. Our guidance reflects our solid revenue performance through the first 9 months while considering the macro environment, continuing supply constraints, and potential adjustments to the CereLink reserve.

Full-year 2022 reported revenue guidance reflects an additional 25 basis points of unfavorable foreign currency impact relative to guidance provided in August 2022. Foreign currency is now expected to unfavorably impact full year reported growth by approximately 250 basis points compared to the prior year due to the continuing strength of the US Dollar.

Full year 2022 adjusted EPS guidance is being raised to a range of $3.29 to $3.33, an increase of $0.15 at the mid-point compared to the Company’s August guidance.

For the fourth quarter 2022, the Company expects reported revenues in the range of $391 million to $403 million, representing reported growth of -3.5% to -0.6% and organic growth of 1.3% to 4.3%. Adjusted earnings per diluted share is expected to be in a range of $0.87 to $0.91.

The Company’s guidance for fourth quarter and full-year organic sales growth excludes acquisitions and divestitures, the effects of foreign currency and the year-over-year change in revenue from discontinued products. Organic growth includes ACell as of January 20, 2022 and excludes sales from the TWC divestiture as of September 1, 2022. Adjusted earnings per share guidance reflects the impact of the divestiture of the TWC business as well as an updated foreign currency outlook.
