Segmental Analysis
Integer Holdings operates through two segments — Medical Sales and Non-Medical Sales.
Medical Sales reported revenues of $296.1 million, up 30.1% year over year both on a reported and an organic basis.
Medical Sales has three product lines — Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics and Portable Medical (AS&O); Cardio & Vascular; and Cardiac & Neuromodulation.
Integer Holdings’ AS&O business has been divested to Viant. Consequently, revenues at the segment comprise net sales from the acquirer, Viant, under supply agreements associated with the divestiture and portable medical sales.
Revenues amounted to $28.7 million, down 4.8% year over year both on a reported and an organic basis. Per management, the downside was due to a decline in portable medical ventilator and patient monitoring components sales.
Revenues at the Cardio & Vascular business totaled $160.9 million, up 29.1% from the prior-year quarter on a reported basis and up 29% organically. The business recorded strong sales increases across all cardio & vascular markets on the back of robust market demand, especially in the peripheral vascular and electrophysiology markets.
Revenues at the Cardiac & Neuromodulation business were $106.5 million, up 46.1% year over year, both on a reported and an organic basis. Sales in this arm increased across all markets on the back of customer demand. Sales in both the cardiac rhythm management and neuromodulation markets increased in high double digits.
Revenues at the Non-Medical Sales segment totaled $9.5 million, up 14.5% year over year, both on a reported and an organic basis. Sales at the Electrochem product line, a part of the Non-Medical segment, improved 14% on the back of the continued recovery of the energy market.

Financial Position

Total debt (including current portion) at the end of third-quarter 2021 was $630.7 million compared with $668.7 million at the end of the second quarter.
Cumulative net cash flow from operating activities at the end of the third quarter was $117.4 million compared with $110.2 million a year ago.
2021 Guidance
For 2021, Integer Holdings expects revenues to be in the range of $1,205-$1,220 million, reflecting an improvement of 12-14% from the 2020 reported figure. This is narrowed from the previously issued guidance of $1,200-$1,220 million, which also indicated an increase of 12-14%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $1.22 billion.
The company expects full-year adjusted EPS in the band of $3.90-$4.15, indicating an uptick of 41-50% from the 2020 reported figure (up from the previous expectation of $3.66-$4.03, which called for a 32-46% increase from the year-ago reported figure). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $3.98.
For fourth-quarter 2021, the company projects similar strong year-over-year sales growth as well.
Our Take
Integer Holdings exited the third quarter with better-than-expected results. Robust segmental performances, along with strength in the majority of the product lines, are impressive. Continued business recovery, despite the U.S. labor constraints and global supply chain disruptions, is encouraging. Expansion of gross margin also bodes well for the stock. A raised adjusted EPS outlook for the year and management’s expectations of a strong sales growth in the fourth quarter of 2021 raise our optimism.
Integer Holdings continued to witness weak performance across its AS&O product line in the quarter under review. Contraction of adjusted operating margin also does not bode well.
