Management Comments

Steve Schwartz, President and CEO, stated, “We exit fiscal 2022 having successfully transformed into a standalone life sciences business with significant opportunities ahead of us. We achieved strong double-digit organic growth of 12% in the quarter and 17% in the fiscal year, excluding estimated COVID impacts. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we regained momentum in our genomics business and saw sustained strength in large-automated stores, which posted another record bookings quarter. We remain focused on execution and on driving broader adoption of our unique offerings.

“We’re also pleased to announce that our Board has authorized a new $1.5 billion share repurchase program and we intend to repurchase at least $1 billion of common stock over the coming year, beginning with a $500 million accelerated share repurchase. This program is a testament to our commitment to returning value to


shareholders. It underscores our strong capital position, and our view that we have significant upside opportunity. Even with this meaningful repurchase of shares, we expect to have sufficient capital available to deploy for additional growth investment consistent with our long-term strategy, and we will continue to generate value for shareholders as we pursue opportunities to extend our industry leading position.

“We also announced that as part of our ongoing transformation we are nominating two new directors to our board. Both are outstanding life sciences executives with track records of creating value who will stand for election at our next annual shareholder meeting. These nominees will replace two of our directors who will not be standing for re-election.”

Summary of Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2022 Results

Revenue excludes revenue from the Semiconductor Automation business which was sold on February 1, 2022. Profits related to this business are included in discontinued operations. The Company has referenced in the explanation of revenue the estimated impact of COVID. Estimated impact of COVID includes the estimated revenue contribution from products delivered and services rendered to support COVID testing and research, and estimated constraints on the business due to disruptions in customer demand or the Company’s ability to deliver in the COVID environment.

Fourth Quarter, Fiscal 2022

Summary of GAAP Results

Revenue was $138 million, flat year over year and up 4% sequentially. Year over year organic growth was 2%, which excludes over 4 percentage points of headwind from foreign exchange and a 3 percentage point contribution from the acquisition of Barkey Holding GmBH (“Barkey”) completed on July 1, 2022.
Organic growth was 12% year over year when excluding the COVID impact in both periods. The estimated COVID impact was approximately $1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to a $12 million contribution in the prior year period.
Life Sciences Products revenue declined 9% year over year mainly due to lower revenue in the consumables and instruments (“C&I”) business, partially offset by strong high-teens growth in our large-automated stores business. The acquisition of Barkey contributed $4 million to revenue. Organic revenue declined 10% year over year and was up 13% excluding COVID impacts in both periods.
Life Sciences Services revenue grew 6% year over year, with 9% growth in sample repository solutions (“SRS”) driven by revenue from stored samples and 6% growth in genomics driven by next-generation and sanger sequencing. Organic growth was 10% year over year and up 11% excluding COVID impacts in both periods.
Operating loss was $15 million, a $7 million improvement year over year primarily due to the retirement of tradenames related to the rebranding of the Life Sciences business that took place in the fourth quarter of 2021. Gross margin was 42.3%, down 600 basis points year over year.
Diluted EPS from continuing operations was ($0.07) compared to ($0.30) in fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Total diluted EPS of ($0.28) includes ($0.21) of diluted EPS primarily from tax adjustments in discontinued operations related to the sale of the Semiconductor Automation business. Other income included $10 million of net interest income versus a $0.4 million expense in the prior year period.


Fourth quarter 2021 non-operating expenses included $16 million of charges for the release of a tax indemnification asset, which was offset within the tax expense with the reduction of tax liability.

Summary of Non-GAAP Results

Operating income was $2 million and operating margin was 1.5%, down 670 basis points year over year. Gross margin was 43.8%, down 580 basis points year over year. Operating expense in the quarter was $58 million, up $1 million year over year. Inflation, foreign exchange and product mix as well as incremental strategic investments for growth added pressure to the Company’s margin performance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
Diluted EPS for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $0.16, up $0.04 versus one year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation, was $9 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 6.9%, down 860 basis points year over year.

Full Year, Fiscal 2022

Summary of GAAP Results

Revenue for fiscal 2022 was $555 million, up 8% year over year. Organic growth was 9%, which excludes a 2 percentage point headwind from foreign exchange and a 2 percentage point contribution from acquisitions.
Organic growth was 17% year over year when excluding the estimated COVID impact in both periods. The COVID impact was $22 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $53 million the prior year.
Life Sciences Products revenue was $199 million, flat year over year driven by lower C&I revenue offset by increases across all other business lines and the addition of Barkey in July 2022. Organic revenue declined 1% year over year and was up 13% excluding estimated COVID impacts in both periods.
Life Sciences Services revenue was $356 million, up 13% year over year, with 18% growth in SRS driven by stored samples and 11% growth in genomics with expansion across all major business lines. Organic growth was 15% year over year and was 18% excluding COVID impacts in both periods.
Operating loss was $25 million, a $6 million improvement year over year primarily due to the retirement of tradenames related to the rebranding of the Life Sciences business and a charge related to liabilities for tariffs related to imports in prior fiscal years that took place during fiscal 2021 and did not repeat in fiscal 2022, partially offset by inflation and investment in the business. Gross margin was 46.0%, down 150 basis points year over year.
Diluted EPS from continuing operations was ($0.15) compared to ($0.39) in fiscal 2021. Total diluted EPS of $28.48 includes $28.63 of diluted EPS from discontinued operations related to the sale of the Semiconductor Automation business. Other income included $16 million of net interest income versus a $1 million expense in the prior year.

Summary of Non-GAAP Results

Operating income was $28 million and operating margin was 5.1%, down 400 basis points year over year. Gross margin was 47.3% down 280 basis points year over year. Operating expense was $234 million, up $24 million year over year. Full year margins were impacted by inflation and strategic


investments for growth as well as unfavorable foreign exchange and product mix weighing on second half results.

Diluted EPS for fiscal 2022 was $0.51, up $0.03 versus fiscal 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation, was $62 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.3%, down 550 basis points year over year.

Cash and Liquidity as of September 30, 2022

The Company ended fiscal year 2022 with a total balance of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities of $2.3 billion.

Subsequent Events

On October 3, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of B Medical Systems S.a.r.l (“B Medical”), a global leader in temperature-controlled storage and transportation solutions for approximately $422 million in cash, which includes an adjustment for cash acquired and other items. Additional cash consideration, up to approximately $50 million, may be paid upon achievement of certain future performance milestones.
Following the completion of the B Medical acquisition, the Company had a total balance of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities of approximately $1.9 billion.

New Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a share repurchase authorization of $1.5 billion in common stock. The Company intends to repurchase at least $1 billion in common stock over the next year, including an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program to repurchase approximately $500 million in common stock. Azenta intends to enter into an ASR agreement in the coming days.

Repurchases of the Company’s common stock may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions (including the ASR program), or by other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, subject to market and business conditions, legal requirements, and other factors. This share repurchase authorization does not obligate Azenta to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and share repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.

Board of Directors Nominations

Today the Company announced that Tina S. Nova, Ph.D. and Dorothy E. Puhy have been nominated for election to its Board of Directors at the Company’s 2023 Annual General Meeting.

Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Management adjusts the GAAP results for the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, purchase price accounting adjustments and charges related to M&A to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers. Management also excludes special charges and gains, such as impairment losses, gains and losses from the sale of assets, certain tax benefits and charges, as well as other gains and charges that are not representative of the normal operations of the business. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single measure.
