Fresenius Medical Care posts solid first quarter results underlining resilience of business model

9% revenue increase supported by growth in all regions

Positive earnings growth despite negative impact from COVID-19 pandemic

Solid cash-flow development

Financial targets for FY2020 confirmed

Rice Powell, Chief Executive Officer of Fresenius Medical Care, said: In these unprecedented times, it is our first and foremost priority to maintain the continuity and high quality of care. For months now, our employees have been working tirelessly to ensure that our patients receive their life-saving dialysis treatments. I cannot thank them enough. We appreciate the financial commitment that the U.S. administration has given in April to support healthcare providers. The strong revenue growth in the first quarter shows that the underlying business development remains intact and that our business model is resilient. In a global pandemic that is redefining priorities in other areas of the healthcare system, dialysis remains essential for millions of patients worldwide.

Fresenius Medical Care s contribution in the fight against COVID-19

In order to ensure the continuity and high quality of care for dialysis patients during the COVID-19 pandemic and support its employees around the globe, Fresenius Medical Care has taken wide-ranging measures at a very early stage. The focus is on reducing the risk of infection in dialysis clinics for patients and employees.

Despite countries lockdown efforts to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, Fresenius Medical Care did not experience any major disruptions in its manufacturing facilities. As of today, all manufacturing plants worldwide are in operation and supply chains remain intact.

Costs in respect to the COVID-19 pandemic have been incurred for additional measures, like personal protective equipment, dedicated capacities for isolated treatments, additional personnel expense, patient transportation as well as increased distribution logistic costs.

Under the CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act), the U.S. government initiated significant financial support for the health sector. This is intended, for example, to compensate for the increased costs for healthcare providers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the corresponding protective measures. While Fresenius Medical Care had to adsorb a sizable negative impact in Q1, there is no benefit from the CARES Act included in the reported results.

In the U.S., Fresenius Medical Care is cooperating with other dialysis providers, to create isolation clinics and dedicated shifts for patients who are or may be infected with COVID-19. A critical aim of this collaboration is to keep dialysis patients out of the hospital whenever possible, freeing up limited hospital resources. In doing so, Fresenius Medical Care not only fulfils its responsibility towards patients, employees and families, but also makes an important contribution to the healthcare system and society as a whole.

2020 targets confirmed: mid to high single digit growth rates

On the basis of the guidance given in February, which excludes the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, Fresenius Medical Care expects both revenue and net income to grow at a mid to high single digit rate in 2020. These targets are in constant currency, exclude special items(3) and are based on the adjusted results 2019 including the effects of the operations of the NxStage acquisition and the IFRS 16 implementation.

Patients, Clinics and Employees

As of March 31, 2020, Fresenius Medical Care treated 348,703 patients in 4,002 dialysis clinics worldwide. At the end of the first quarter, the Company had 121,403 employees (full-time equivalents) worldwide, compared to 118,308 employees as of March 31, 2019.

Strong revenue growth in the first quarter

Revenue increased by 9% to EUR 4,488 million (+7% at constant currency), with organic growth of 4%. Health Care Services revenue rose by 8% to EUR 3,595 million (+7% at constant currency), driven by growth in same market treatments, contributions from acquisitions and an increase in dialysis days. Health Care Products revenue grew by 10% and amounted to EUR 893 million (+9% at constant currency). This increase was mainly due to higher sales of products for acute care treatments, renal pharmaceuticals and bloodlines partially offset by lower sales of dialysis machines.

Operating income increased by 3% to EUR 555 million (+1% at constant currency), mainly driven by a favorable impact from higher treatment volume and lower costs for pharmaceuticals. The operating income margin amounted to 12.4% (Q1 2019: 13.0%). The decrease in margin was largely due to the unfavorable COVID-19 pandemic effect and the prior year reduction of a contingent consideration liability related to Xenios.

Despite the negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic net income(1) grew by 4% to EUR 283 million (+2% at constant currency) and declined on an adjusted basis by only 1% (-3% at constant currency). On the defined basis of the 2020 targets - excluding the negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic - net income growth in the first quarter is at the top end of the target range for 2020.

Basic earnings per share (EPS) increased by 8% to EUR 0.95 (+5% at constant currency) driven by the earnings effects described above coupled with a decrease in the average weighted shares outstanding.

(3) Special items are effects that are unusual in nature and have not been foreseeable or not foreseeable in size or impact at the time of giving guidance.

Fresenius Medical Care generated EUR 584 million of operating cash flow (Q1 2019: EUR 76 million) resulting in a margin of 13.0% (Q1 2019: 1.8%). The increase was largely driven by working capital improvement, including a positive effect from cash collections, timing of payments and change in year over year inventory levels.

Free cash flow (net cash used in operating activities, after capital expenditures, before acquisitions and investments) amounted to EUR 304 million (Q1 2019: EUR -123 million), resulting in a margin of 6.8% (Q1 2019: -3.0%).

Operating income decreased by 27% to EUR 101 million (-27% at constant currency), resulting in a margin of 14.9% (Q1 2019: 21.1%).
