AngioDynamics (ANGO, $14.81) announces $46 million acquisition of Eximo; issues lower-than-expected guidance
AngioDynamics shares plummeted on Thursday, after the company released its latest guidance for the full-year.
The medical devices maker announced the purchase of Israeli laser company Eximo for $46 million up front, with up to another $20 million conditional upon Eximo meeting its technical and revenue milestones.
Following the acquisition, AngioDynamics now expects earnings for fiscal 2020 to range between 10 cents and 15 cents a share – a range lower than analysts’ expectation of 26 cents.
Angio CEO Jim Clemmer indicated that the acquisition of Eximo would usher in a remarkable, foundational technology for its portfolio in a way that transforms the way caregivers provide treatment to patients with PAD. "The market is ripe for disruption, and the level of precision, safety, and efficiency offered to physicians by this laser technology creates a substantially differentiated alternative to legacy atherectomy devices," Clemmer said.
Separately, the company reported first-quarter earnings of 8 cents a share, which is higher than analysts’ estimate of 4 cents. Its revenue of $66 million, however, came in slightly below the $67.52 million that analysts were expecting.
