STRONG HALF YEAR RESULT FOR FISHER & PAYKEL HEALTHCARE: NET PROFIT UP

24%


Auckland, New Zealand, 27 November 2019 - Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited

today announced its financial results for the half year ended 30 September 2019. Net profit after

tax was $121.2 million, up 24%, and operating revenue was $570.9 million, 12% above the first

half last year.


“We’ve had a strong start to the 2020 financial year, mainly driven by our Hospital product group,

which delivered operating revenue growth of 19 per cent,” said Managing Director and CEO Lewis

Gradon. “We saw strong demand across our Hospital product portfolio, but in particular, for our

Optiflow

TM

and Airvo

TM

systems, which continued to benefit from the growing body of clinical

research in the use of nasal high flow therapy.”


In the Hospital product group, which includes humidification products used in respiratory, acute and

surgical care, operating revenue increased 19% to a record $353.6 million. This represented 17%

growth in constant currency, during an extended flu season in the United States. Products in the

Hospital group made up 62% of the company’s operating revenue.


In the Homecare product group, which includes products used in the treatment of obstructive sleep

apnea (OSA) and respiratory support in the home, operating revenue rose 2% to NZ$214.7 million,

or a decline of 1% in constant currency.


“Revenue from our new F&P Vitera

TM

full face mask in Australasia, Canada and Europe has

partially offset declines in sales of some of our legacy OSA masks, resulting in Homecare revenue

in line with expectations for the first half. Vitera was launched in the United States in October, and

we are encouraged by the early response from customers,” said Mr Gradon.


Gross margin increased by 26 basis points to 67.1% compared to the first half last year, with

benefits from product mix offsetting the additional start-up costs of the company’s second Mexico

manufacturing facility.


The company’s directors have approved an interim dividend of 12 cents per ordinary share, an

increase of 23% on the interim dividend last year. The interim dividend, carrying full New Zealand

imputation credit, will be paid on 19 December 2019 with a record date of 9 December 2019.


Outlook for the remainder of FY2020


“In the second half of the 2020 financial year we anticipate consistent underlying trends in our

Hospital product group. Assuming a moderate flu season for FY20, for the second half we expect

constant currency Hospital revenue growth similar to the second half of FY19.


“In our Homecare product group we also expect a continuation of recent trends with strong growth

in home respiratory support and ongoing pressure in legacy OSA masks, resulting in Homecare

revenue for the 2020 financial year similar to the previous financial year, in constant currency terms.


“At current exchange rates we continue to expect full year operating revenue for the 2020 financial

year to be approximately $1.19 billion and net profit after tax to be in the range of approximately

$255 to $265 million.


“We recently celebrated our fiftieth anniversary. Looking ahead, an exciting future awaits us

‘beyond fifty’, as we continue to innovate to improve care and develop new applications for our

technologies,” concluded Mr Gradon.

INTERIM REPORT 2020
7Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation LimitedFisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited

The first half of the 2020 financial

year saw Fisher & Paykel

Healthcare deliver strong financial

performance. Net profit after

tax was up 24 per cent at

$121.2 million. Operating revenue

was up 12 per cent at

$570.9 million, or 9 per cent

growth in constant currency.

This result was mainly driven by our Hospital

product group, which delivered revenue

growth of 19 per cent. We saw strong demand

for our Optiflow and AIRVO systems, which

continued to benefit from the growing body

of clinical research in the use of nasal high

flow therapy. Our results were also assisted by

the extended flu season in the United States.

In our Homecare product group, revenue was

in line with our expectations at $214.7 million

for the first half of this year. We were pleased

with the early performance of our Vitera

full-face mask for patients with obstructive

sleep apnea (OSA) in Australasia, Europe

and Canada, and in October received

regulatory clearance to launch this mask in

the United States.

Our result in the first half has benefited from

a reduction in litigation costs and the

weakening of the New Zealand dollar. Recent

changes to New Zealand R&D incentives

contributed to our ongoing investment in

research and development.

Progress with major initiatives

Our global enterprise resource planning

system, SAP, has now been rolled out

successfully in North America with no

interruptions for customers. We are already

seeing the benefits, and we would like to

acknowledge the hard work and dedication

of our teams that were involved in this

significant project.

At our new manufacturing facility in Mexico

– called the Melville Building – infant care

products will soon be moving off the

production line. At our New Zealand campus,

we are making good progress on our fourth

manufacturing building, expected to open in

2020. We are pleased to announce the

building will be named the Daniell Building in

honour of our former CEO and current Board

member Mike Daniell.

In line with our global growth strategy to

increase our presence around the world, we

recently opened an office in Poland, with our

own dedicated sales team promoting our

products in hospitals.

As previously noted, our Vitera OSA mask

recently received FDA clearance in the United

States, and distribution has started through

our sales channels. Our F&P 950 humidification

system has now been registered in Canada,

and we will be expanding the rollout to more

countries this year.

New horizons in research

Research continues in areas that support and

strengthen the use of our devices and

therapies in intensive care units, emergency

departments, hospital wards and homes.

In August, a leading US physician, Professor

Gerard Criner, visited Auckland to share his

research into treating chronic obstructive

pulmonary disease (COPD) using F&P

myAIRVO and Optiflow systems. He has seen

the potential benefits of nasal high flow

therapy for COPD patients and is now

investigating a longer-term study to generate

robust clinical data.

Last month, a study of more than 600

patients in France

1

was presented at the

European Respiratory Society International

Congress. This study showed the benefit

of a combination of noninvasive ventilation

leaders in their respective fields. Through

strong technical and clinical expertise, we

have grown into a trusted brand, earning the

respect of key opinion leaders in healthcare.

We seek out the world’s best experts and

learn about world-class practices, and then

we go above and beyond to do something

different, something better.

Looking ahead, an exciting future awaits us

‘beyond 50’, as we continue to innovate to

improve care and develop new applications

for our technologies.

We appreciate the support of our customers,

employees, shareholders, suppliers, and

clinical partners, who are on this journey with

us. Thanks to you, we estimate that Fisher &

Paykel Healthcare products will be used by

more than 15 million patients in 120 countries

during this financial year. We are confident we

will see our world of care continue to expand

and transform.

and nasal high flow therapy in mechanically

ventilated patients at high risk of

extubation failure.

Numerous other studies are currently

underway on groups of patients requiring

respiratory support and how they could

benefit from humidified nasal high flow

therapy. We expect the body of evidence to

continue growing over the next several years

and changes to clinical protocols as a result.

Environment

Taking care of the environment remains an

important commitment at Fisher & Paykel

Healthcare. Across our business, we are

continuing to measure and report our carbon

emissions. We have also started gathering

data from our suppliers in order to measure

the total carbon footprint of our products,

with the goal of designing out carbon across

our portfolio. In the first half of this year, our

teams were able to divert 467 tonnes of

material away from landfills through

composting and recycling programmes.

Our teams are researching eco-friendly

materials, such as compostable substitutes

and bioplastics made from sugar cane, to

adapt for use in our products. It is challenging

to recycle patient respiratory consumables,

which are classified as medical waste.

However, we are partnering with a

global leader on a pilot programme to

recycle waste from our manufacturing

processes and turn them into new products

that benefit consumers.

Dividend

The Board of Directors has approved an

interim dividend of 12 cents per share for the

six months to 30 September 2019, which

equates to a dividend payout ratio of 57% of

net profit after tax. The dividend will be paid

on 19 December 2019.

Chair succession

Tony Carter has announced his intention to

retire as chairman of the Board with effect

from the close of the annual shareholders’

meeting next August. Current director Scott

St John has been elected by the Board to

succeed Tony. As the chairman of our Audit &

Risk Committee, Scott has been a strong

leader with excellent corporate governance

and commercial skills, and he has the

unanimous support of his fellow directors.

Looking beyond

As you may know, Fisher & Paykel Healthcare

celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2019.

Throughout our history we have focused on

continuous improvement and innovation, and

as a result, our products are now considered

1. Constant currency (CC) removes the impact of exchange rate movements. This approach is used to

assess the Group’s underlying comparative financial performance without any distortion from

changes in foreign exchange rates. A full reconciliation and basis of preparation is set out on page 11.

Total profit after tax for the period was up 24% to $121.2 million (23% in constant currency).

Revenue

Operating revenue was $570.9 million, 12% higher than the same period last year or 9% in

constant currency. Hospital revenue grew 17% in constant currency driven by strong growth

across our entire Hospital product portfolio, but in particular our new applications consumables.

Homecare revenue decreased 1% in constant currency due to the phasing of our OSA mask

product cycle relative to competitors.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased by 26 basis points to 67.1%, with a benefit from product mix offsetting

the additional costs of the new Mexico manufacturing facility.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses increased 6% (3% in constant currency) to $216.9 million. Excluding total

patent litigation expenses in the prior year of $7.7 million, operating expense growth was

7% in constant currency, reflecting ongoing expenditure to support global sales growth.

Research & development (R&D) spend of $54.0 million grew 18%. Over the long term we plan for

R&D spend to grow in line with constant currency revenue growth.

At the beginning of the financial period, the Group adopted NZ IFRS 16 Leases. On adoption of

NZ IFRS 16, rental and lease expenses are effectively reclassified into a depreciation component

and an interest component to reflect the implied financing in the lease. The overall net profit

after tax impact of this was $0.1 million for the six month period to 30 September 2019. The

adoption resulted in an increase in our operating profit of $1.1 million, offset by an increase in

interest costs of $0.9 million for the period in constant currency.

Financing expenses

Total reported financing expenses increased, reflecting lease interest costs, lower interest

income on short term deposits and foreign exchange losses on the translation of foreign

currency interest bearing liabilities, including lease liabilities.

Ta x

Our effective tax rate for the period was 24.1%, down from 28.3% in the prior period.

Excluding the benefit from the newly introduced R&D tax credit, the effective tax rate

was 28.2% for the period.

Callaghan Growth Grant and R&D tax credit

In May 2019 the New Zealand Government passed the Taxation (Research and Development

Tax Credits) Act 2019, an R&D tax incentive that provides a 15% tax credit on eligible R&D

expenditure. The R&D tax credit was effective from 1 April 2019 and replaces the Callaghan

Growth Grant, which was previously reported in Other Income. The tax credit reported

this period of $6.6 million reflects the estimated eligible R&D expenditure incurred during

the period.

budget foreign exchange rates for the 2020 financial year. These income statements

exclude the impact of movements in foreign exchange rates, hedging results and balance

sheet translations.

This constant currency analysis is non–conforming financial information, as defined by

the NZ Financial Markets Authority, and has been provided to assist users of financial

information to better understand and assess the Group’s financial performance without the

impacts of spot foreign currency fluctuations and hedging results and has been prepared on

a consistent basis each period.

The Group’s constant currency income statement framework can be found on the company’s

The reconciliation above illustrates that, when comparing the NZD profit before tax shown

in the actual income statement for the period to 30 September 2019 with the corresponding

prior period:

• the movement in average daily spot exchange rates had a favourable impact of $6.3 million;

and

• the result of foreign exchange hedging activities was lower by $0.7 million.

Overall, the net favourable effect of movements in exchange rates and the hedging programme

was $2.7 million, including the impact of balance sheet revaluations.

FOREIGN CURRENCY IMPACTS (CONTINUED)

The NZD weakened against all major currencies during the period. Both the US dollar and Euro

conversion rates were lower compared to the prior comparable period due to a combination of

more favourable currency hedging and lower spot rates. Foreign exchange hedging losses of

$2.8 million (2018: $2.1 million loss) are included within operating profit.

The average daily spot rate and the average conversion exchange rate (i.e. the accounting rate,

incorporating the benefit of forward exchange contracts in respect of the relevant financial

period) of the main foreign currency exposures for the reported periods are set out in the

table below.

USD0.6843 0.65560.6826 0.6700

EUR 0.5819 0.58660.6006 0.5859

The effect of balance sheet translations for the period resulted in an increase in operating

revenue of $8.5 million (2018: $6.7 million increase) and an increase in profit before tax of

$0.8 million (2018: $3.7 million increase).

Foreign exchange hedging position

During the period favourable exchange rate movements have provided opportunities to add

hedges for future years, in particular, USD for 2021 to 2024. The hedging position for our main

currency exposures as at 26 November 2019 is:

Our balance sheet remained strong.

Trade receivables increased largely due to foreign currency translation benefits. Our debtors

days were within the normal range at 47 days, a slight increase from 46 days at 31 March

2019. Inventories increased largely in line with our business growth, and reflected seasonality

approaching the northern hemisphere winter. Trade and other payables reduced, reflecting

timing of litigation related costs and capex project related accruals.

The impact of the new leasing standard resulted in a recognition of right-of-use lease assets,

included in property, plant and equipment, and lease liabilities. The detailed impact is explained

in the notes to the financial statements.

The increase in property plant and equipment includes recognition of right-of-use lease assets

of $29.1 million and capital investment of $73.4 million, of which $43 million related to building

additions, primarily our new building in Auckland. These increases were offset by $19.2 million

of depreciation, including depreciation of leased assets.

Intangible assets increased by $8.8 million including patent acquisition costs and ERP

implementation costs. The global SAP rollout will continue over the next two to three years,

with the US office implementation successfully completed in June 2019.

Other net assets decreased primarily due to a decrease in net derivative instrument assets,

net of the deferred tax impact. This reflected the NZD depreciating against the USD and Euro.

Capital expenditure

Property, plant and equipment purchases for the period were $73.4 million, an increase

from $53.7 million in the prior period. These primarily related to building projects in

New Zealand, totalling $43 million, with the remaining expenditure being production

tooling and equipment costs.

Dividends

Dividends paid of $77.5 million were 22% higher than the prior period, reflecting the suspension

of the dividend reinvestment plan at the final 2019 dividend payment.

been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

(NZ GAAP). They comply with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard

34: ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ (NZ IAS 34) and International Accounting Standard 34: ‘Interim

Financial Reporting’ (IAS 34). The Company and Group are designated as profit-oriented

entities for financial reporting purposes.

These consolidated financial statements do not include all of the notes normally included in an

consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019.

These consolidated financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars rounded to the

nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS AND EVENTS FOR THE CURRENT PERIOD

The following significant transactions and events affected the financial performance and

financial position of the Group for the six month period ended 30 September 2019:

Capital expenditure

During the period, construction work progressed on the fourth building in Auckland,

New Zealand. Capital commitments at 30 September 2019 include $33.2 million related to

this project. To date, spending on this project totals $112.5 million. The building is expected

to be operational in 2020.

ResMed Litigation

As disclosed in the 31 March 2019 Annual Report, in February 2019 Fisher & Paykel Healthcare

and ResMed reached a settlement on patent infringement disputes. Net litigation costs related

to these actions incurred in the prior period to 30 September 2018 were $7.7 million. In the

current period, no significant costs were incurred.

Share capital

During the six months ended 30 September 2019, the Group issued 536,200 shares on exercise

of share options and employee stock purchase plans.

Funding and short-term investments

The Company had total available committed debt funding of NZ$218 million as at 30 September

2019, of which approximately NZ$143 million was undrawn. Over the next 12 months no debt

facilities will mature. As at 30 September 2019, the weighted average maturity of borrowing

facilities was 2.9 years.  

As at 30 September 2019, the Group has invested available cash on hand of $47.5 million in

short-term investments.  These investments have maturities between 92 and 121 days with

banking institutions that have a long term credit rating of Standard & Poors’ A- and above

and are invested at average interest rates of 2.7%.

Research and development tax incentive

During the period, the New Zealand government passed the Taxation (Research and

Development Tax Credits) Act 2019. This research and development tax incentive provides

a 15% tax credit on eligible research and development ‘R&D’ expenditure and has replaced

the Callaghan Growth Grant.

For the period ended 30 September 2019 a tax credit of $6.6 million was recognised

as a deduction to tax expense, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.1%. Excluding the tax

credit, the effective tax rate for the period would have been 28.2% (September 2018: 28.3%).


Tax credits are estimated based on the eligible R&D expenditure incurred during the period

and are recognised as a deduction to current tax expense and offset in current tax payable.

Tax credits are only recognised when there is reasonable certainty the Group will comply

with the conditions of the tax incentive.

5. LEASES

a. Adoption of NZ IFRS 16

During the period the Group adopted NZ IFRS 16 ‘Leases’, effective 1 April 2019, using

the modified retrospective approach. The cumulative effect of adopting NZ IFRS 16 was

recognised as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at 1 April 2019, with

no restatement of comparative information. The reduction in retained earnings on 1 April 2019

was $3.4 million. This is a non cash adjustment and did not impact the Group’s ability to comply

with its debt covenants.

Adjustments recognised on adoption of NZ IFRS 16

Prior to 1 April 2019, leases of property, plant and equipment were classified as operating leases

with an operating lease expense recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

From 1 April 2019, leases are recognised as a right-of-use (or leased) asset and a corresponding

lease liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by the Group. Each

lease payment is allocated between the liability and financing expense. The financing expense

is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of

interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The balance sheet impact of NZ IFRS 16

The impact of NZ IFRS 16 on the Group’s opening balance sheet is as follows:

The cash flows presentation impact of NZ IFRS 16

Prior to the adoption of NZ IFRS 16, operating lease payments were included in payments

to suppliers within operating activities. Following the adoption of NZ IFRS 16, the interest

component is allocated to operating cashflows, and the repayment of the lease liability principal

is classified within financing activities.

Practical expedients applied

In applying NZ IFRS 16 for the first time, the Group used the following practical expedients

permitted by the standard:

• the use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar

characteristics;

• the accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at

1 April 2019 as short-term leases;

• the exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date

of initial application;

• the use of hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to

extend or terminate the lease; and

• the election not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial

application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date, the Group relied

on its assessment made applying NZ IAS 17 and NZ IFRIC 4 ‘Determining whether an

Arrangement contains a lease’.

b) The Group’s leasing activities


The Group leases predominantly relate to property outside New Zealand or vehicles and

equipment which were all classified as operating leases until 31 March 2019. All leases have

been classified into these two categories and included within property, plant and equipment.

Lease contracts are typically made for fixed periods between 3–12 years but may have

extension options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide

range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants,

but leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes. The right-of-use

asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the expected lease term

on a straight-line basis.

Lease liabilities have been measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments,

discounted using a discount rate derived from the incremental borrowing rate for each

relevant overseas territory on 1 April 2019 when the interest rate implicit in the lease was

not readily available. Incremental borrowing rates applied to lease liabilities range between

2.6% – 25%.

Extension options

Some property leases contain an extension option exercisable by the Group. At the

commencement of a lease, the Group assesses whether it is reasonably certain an extension

option will be exercised. The assessment is reviewed if a significant event or a significant

change in circumstances occurs which affects this assessment and that is within the control

of the Group. The extension options are only exercisable by the Group and not by the lessor.

Where an extension is reasonably certain of being exercised, that extension period and

related costs are recognised on the balance sheet.

Short-term and low-value leases

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised

on a straight-line basis as an expense in the Income Statement. Short-term leases are leases

with a lease term of 12 months or less and predominantly relate to computer equipment.

6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial instruments are either carried at amortised cost, less any provision for impairment, or

fair value. The carrying value of all financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value.

There have been no changes to the Group’s hedging policy during the period. The Group

enters into foreign currency option contracts or forward foreign currency contracts within

policy parameters to manage the net risk associated with anticipated sales or costs. The Group

generally applies hedge accounting to all derivative financial instruments.

All derivative financial instruments continue to be re-measured to their fair value. Derivative

financial instruments continue to be classified as being within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy,

and there were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.

Contractual amounts of derivative financial instruments were as follows:

INTERIM REPORT 2020

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT

To the shareholders of Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited

REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Corporation Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries

(the Group) on pages 14 to 23, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 30 September 2019, and the consolidated income statement, the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended on

that date, and selected explanatory notes.

DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Directors are responsible on behalf of the Company for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with

International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial

Reporting (NZ IAS 34) and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are

free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

OUR RESPONSIBILITY

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance

with the New Zealand Standard on Review Engagements 2410 Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (NZ SRE 2410).

NZ SRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the consolidated financial statements, taken as a

whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34. As the auditors of the Company, NZ SRE 2410 requires that we comply

with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial statements.

A review of consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 is a limited assurance engagement. The auditor performs procedures, primarily

consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures.

The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing

(New Zealand) and International Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on these consolidated financial statements.

We are independent of the Group. Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of treasury related financial markets risk analysis and commentary,

remuneration benchmarking, tax compliance, scrutineering the counting of votes at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting and other assurance services in relation to

constant currency disclosures. The provision of these other services has not impaired our independence.

CONCLUSION

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these consolidated financial statements of the Group do not present fairly, in

all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 30 September 2019, and its financial performance and cash flows for the six months then ended, in

accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34.

WHO WE REPORT TO

This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders. Our review work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s shareholders those

matters which we are required to state to them in our review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume

responsibility to anyone other than the shareholders for our review procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we have formed.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

•Temporary closure of airway during sleep

•Can greatly impair quality of sleep, leading

to fatigue; also associated with

hypertension, stroke and heart attack

•Estimate >100 million people affected in

developed countries

•Most common treatment is CPAP

(Continuous Positive Airway Pressure)

−Key issue with CPAP is compliance

−Humidification provides significant

acceptance and compliance
