Net sales came in at $85.3 million, which edged past the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $83 million. However, revenues declined 0.1% year over year.
Geographical Analysis
U.S. net revenues in the quarter under review were $67.7 million, down 1.8% at constant currency (cc).
International revenues totaled $17.7 million, up 7.3% at cc. Per management, the company’s NanoKnife saw rising global adoption in the reported quarter.
Segmental Analysis
Vascular Interventions and Therapies (VIT) Business
VIT sales in the quarter grossed $50 million, up marginally from the year-ago quarter’s $49.9 million. Per management, growth in Fluid Management, Angiographic Catheters and AngioVac was offset by declines in the Venous Insufficiency business.
However, AngioVac procedural volume growth remained strong, with procedures increasing 16% year over year.
Vascular Access (VA) Business
Revenues at this segment came in at $23.8 million, up 2.4% on a year-over-year basis. Per management, growth in Ports, Dialysis and Midline products was partially offset by a decline in PICC sales.
Oncology/Surgery Business
Oncology sales fell 6.1% year over year to $11.6 million as NanoKnife disposable growth was more than offset by decline in sales of Radiofrequency Ablation and Microwave products. Per management, the segment was impacted by the timing of the prior-year Acculis Microwave Ablation system market withdrawal.
Excluding the impact of transition from the company’s Acculis Microwave product to its Solero Microwave product, its Oncology business grew 7.5% year over year.

In the quarter under review, gross profit totaled $44.5 million, up 7.9% from the year-ago quarter. Gross margin was 52.1%, up 380 basis points (bps). Adjusted operating income totaled $8.9 million, up 15.4% year over year. Adjusted operating margin was 10.4%, up 170 bps year over year.

VGM Scores
At this time, AngioDynamics has a poor Growth Score of F, a grade with the same score on the momentum front. However, the stock was allocated a grade of C on the value side, putting it in the middle 20% for this investment strategy.
Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of F. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.
