CONMED Corporation (NYSE: CNMD) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Sales of $317.7 million increased 14.6% year over year as reported and 16.6% in constant currency. Acquisitions contributed approximately 400 basis points of growth.
  • Domestic revenue increased 17.1% year over year.
  • International revenue increased 11.7% year over year as reported and 16.0% in constant currency.
  • Diluted net earnings per share (GAAP) were $0.43 compared to diluted net loss per share (GAAP) of $5.65 in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Adjusted diluted net earnings per share(1) were $0.83, an increase of 9.2% compared to the second quarter of 2022.

“Our team drove excellent growth across both Orthopedics and General Surgery during the second quarter, building on the momentum we generated during the first three months of the year,” commented Curt R. Hartman, CONMED’s Chair of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain confident in our ability to grow above market and continue to deliver clinical innovation to our customers.”

2023 Outlook

Based on the second quarter results, the Company is raising its revenue guidance for the full year 2023 and now expects revenue between $1.230 billion and $1.260 billion, compared to its prior guidance of between $1.205 billion and $1.250 billion.

The Company now expects full-year 2023 adjusted diluted net earnings per share(2) in the range of $3.40 to $3.55, compared to its prior range of $3.30 to $3.50.

The expected impact of foreign currency exchange rates is unchanged from the Company’s prior guidance.
