SOUTH JORDAN, UTAH- Merit Medical Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MMSI), a leading manufacturer and marketer of proprietary disposable devices used in interventional, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, particularly in cardiology, radiology and endoscopy, today announced sales of $157.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of 15.3% over sales of $136.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. On a constant currency basis, sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 would have been up 16.1% over sales for the comparable quarter of 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Merit’s sales were $446.1 million, an increase of 10.5% over sales of $403.7 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. On a constant currency basis, sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 would have been up 11.4% over sales for the comparable period of 2015.

Merit’s GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2016 was $1.0 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to $4.8 million, or $0.11 per share, for the third quarter of 2015, down primarily as a result of restructuring costs related to the acquisition of DFINE, Inc. (“DFINE”) in July 2016. Merit’s non-GAAP net income for

the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $11.5 million, or $0.26 per share, up 28.8% compared to $8.9 million, or $0.20 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Merit’s GAAP net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $12.6 million, or $0.28 per share, compared to $17.4 million, or $0.39 per share, for the comparable period of 2015, down primarily as a result of restructuring costs related to the acquisition of DFINE in July 2016. Merit’s non-GAAP net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $31.4 million, or $0.70 per share, up 13.0% compared to $27.8 million, or $0.62 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Merit’s sales by category for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016, compared to the corresponding periods in 2015, were as follows:

*The year-over-year sales decrease in inflation devices for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 can be attributed primarily to reduced sales to a large OEM customer and two large distributors.

“The results of the third quarter were outstanding,” said Fred P. Lampropoulos, Merit’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Despite a historically slow summer sales cycle and the integration and training required as a result of the DFINE acquisition, our sales and operations staff executed with precision and professionalism.”

Lampropoulos also reported that Merit received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice requesting documents and other information regarding certain marketing and promotional practices relating to the Company's products. “We are in the process of responding to the subpoena and intend to cooperate,” Lampropoulos said. “As we deem appropriate, we intend to provide updates regarding the matter in the future.”

2016 GUIDANCE

Based upon information currently available to Merit's management, Merit estimates that for the year ending December 31, 2016, Merit's GAAP net income per share for 2016 will be in the range of $0.45-$0.51. This estimate reflects the intangible amortization and one-time reorganization costs related to the acquisition of DFINE. Merit’s non-GAAP net income per share estimate remains at $0.97-$1.03.

Although Merit’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles which are generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), Merit’s management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful information regarding the underlying business trends and performance of Merit’s ongoing operations and can be useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. The following table sets forth supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to Merit’s GAAP financial statements for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Readers should consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial reporting measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude some, but not all, items that may affect Merit's net income. Additionally, these calculations may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies. The constant currency revenue adjustments of $1.1 million and $3.6 million for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016, respectively, were calculated using the average foreign exchange rates for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015. The non-GAAP income adjustments referenced in the following table do not reflect stock-based compensation expense of approximately $503,000 and approximately $558,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and approximately $1.9 million and approximately $1.6 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Our future financial and operating results and condition, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties such as those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Such risks and uncertainties include risks relating to our potential inability to successfully manage growth through acquisitions; product recalls and product liability claims; expenditures relating to research, development, testing and regulatory approvals of our products and risks that such products may not be developed successfully or approved for commercial use; governmental scrutiny and regulation of the medical device industry, including governmental inquiries, investigations or proceedings; reforms to the 510(k) process administered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; restrictions on our liquidity or business operations resulting from our current debt agreements; infringement of our technology or the assertion that our technology infringes the rights of other parties; the potential of fines, penalties or other adverse consequences if our employees or agents violate the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other laws or regulations; laws and regulations targeting fraud and abuse in the healthcare industry; potential for significant adverse changes in governing regulations; changes in tax laws and regulations in the United States or other countries; increases in the prices of commodity components; negative changes in economic and industry conditions in the United States or other countries; termination or interruption of relationships with our suppliers, or failure of such suppliers to perform; fluctuations in exchange rates; concentration of a substantial portion of our revenues among a few products and procedures; development of new products and technology that could render our existing products obsolete; market acceptance of new products; volatility in the market price of our common stock; modification or limitation of governmental or private insurance reimbursement policies; changes in healthcare policies or markets related to healthcare reform initiatives; failure to comply with applicable environmental laws; changes in key personnel; work stoppage or transportation risks; introduction of products in a timely fashion; price and product competition; availability of labor and materials; and fluctuations in and obsolescence of inventory. All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The financial projections set forth in this presentation are based on a number of assumptions, estimates and forecasts. The inaccuracy of any one of those assumptions, estimates or forecasts could materially impact our financial results. Inevitably, some of those assumptions, estimates or forecasts will not occur and unanticipated events and circumstances will occur subsequent to the date of this presentation. In addition to changes in the underlying assumptions, our future performance is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties with respect to our existing and proposed business, and other factors that may cause our actual results or performance to be materially different from any predicted or implied. Although we have attempted to identify important assumptions in the financial projections, there may be other factors that could materially affect our actual financial performance, and no assurance can be given that all material factors have been considered in the preparation of the financial projections. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on such projections. Future operating results are, in fact, impossible to predict.
