• VAYA Pharma's sales force, infrastructure and related marketing activities in the U.S. and in Singapore continued to expand. VAYA now has 45 sales representatives in 23 states in the U.S.

“Enzymotec enters 2016 strategically and financially well-positioned to execute on its key initiatives to advance up the value chain. The Company’s industry leading lipids technology paired with its fully integrated and comprehensive platform remain the fundamental drivers of our success. The market is ripe for the value proposition that we can offer customers. Our strong financial standing with $76.4 million in cash, deposits and marketable securities on the balance sheet and strong cash flow generation allows us flexibility to continue to make investments across all of our businesses, especially in research and development and the commercial expansion of VAYA Pharma,” stated Dr. Ariel Katz, Enzymotec’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

“VAYA Pharma reported another record quarter with $2.3 million in revenue. We are encouraged by the strength we continue to see in the business and the growing demand for our product offering by both healthcare providers and their patients.   We believe that these are positive signals for our commercial growth strategy and serve as a justification for the additional $1.1 million in operating expenses we incurred during the fourth quarter, compared to the third quarter, with the majority of that dedicated to our selling and marketing initiatives,” Dr. Katz continued.

“Our investment in research and development serves as the crux of our ability to move up the value chain, while also being able to maintain a strong margin profile and reasonable cost structure. We are developing new innovations that we believe will serve the needs of our infant nutrition customers as they navigate the newly emerged ecommerce platforms in China, as well as in the rest of the Far East, where we see tremendous opportunity. We are also looking forward to building additional value in Advanced Lipids with the arbitration now behind us. Our guidance for 2016 reflects our investment in innovation and the ultimate value proposition we can offer to our customers that we believe will support the longer term growth profile of the Company,” concluded Dr. Katz.

Fourth Quarter 2015 Results

For the fourth quarter of 2015, based on the proportionate consolidation method, net revenues increased 18.0% to $16.8 million, from $14.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. Based on the equity method of accounting, net revenues increased 23.1% to $13.3 million, from $10.8 million for the fourth quarter last year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $1.2 million in InFat sales (proportionate consolidation method), an increase of $0.9 million in sales of VAYA Pharma products and an increase of $0.8 million in sales of PS products, all partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million of krill oil sales.   

Gross margin (equity method) for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 299 basis points to 61.4%, from 58.5% for the fourth quarter of 2014 primarily due to a change in product mix.

Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 21.3% to $1.8 million, from $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily as a result of an increase of $0.2 million related to expenses in respect of VAYA Pharma clinical trials.

Selling and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 106.3% to $3.7 million, from $1.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily as a result of an increase of $1.5 million related to an expansion in VAYA Pharma's sales force, infrastructure and related marketing activities in the U.S. and in Singapore.

General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 21.4% to $1.6 million, from $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily due to a decrease of $0.4 million in legal expenses and a decrease of $0.2 million in allowance for doubtful accounts, partially offset by an increase in headcount and share-based compensation expenses of $0.2 million.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 amounted to $1.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, similar to the fourth quarter last year.

Non-GAAP net income increased to $1.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, from $1.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2014. A reconciliation of non-GAAP net income to GAAP net income is set forth below.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 19.2% to $2.4 million, from $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income is set forth below.

Joint Venture Accounting

Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to account for the results of operation of Advanced Lipids AB (Advanced Lipids), the Company's 50%-owned joint venture, using the equity method of accounting, meaning that the Company recognizes its share in the net results of Advanced Lipids as a share of profits of an equity investee. Accordingly, the revenues recognized from the arrangement are the amounts the Company charges to its joint venture partner, or the Company's direct costs of production plus its share of the joint venture's profits. For the three-month periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, sales of the Company through this joint collaboration amounted to $3.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, sales of the Company through this joint collaboration amounted to $14.0 million and $13.3 million, respectively.

To provide investors with a better understanding of the Company's performance and for purposes of segment reporting under U.S. GAAP, which requires presentation on the same basis provided to and utilized by management to analyse the relevant segment's results of operations, the Company accounts for the results of operations of Advanced Lipids using the proportionate consolidation method. The financial information included in the tables above under the heading "Nutrition segment" includes, inter alia, the results of operations of Advanced Lipids, using the proportionate consolidation method. Under the proportionate consolidation method, the Company recognizes its proportionate share of the gross revenues of Advanced Lipids and records its proportionate share of the joint venture's costs of production in its statement of operations.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity Data

As of December 31, 2015, we had $76.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits and short-term and long-term marketable securities, $28.2 million in other working capital items and no debt.

Other Information

On September 5, 2014 and September 30, 2014, two stockholders filed class action complaints in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey purportedly on behalf of all persons who acquired the Company's ordinary shares in its IPO or between September 27, 2013 and August 4, 2014.  The lawsuits assert claims under the United States federal securities laws by claiming that the Company made false and misleading statements concerning its infant formula business in China and krill oil business. The Company, its directors and certain of its officers are named as defendants.  On February 11, 2015, the Court consolidated the cases as In re Enzymotec Ltd. Securities Litigation, Master File No. 14-CV-05556 and appointed a lead plaintiff. Lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on May 18, 2015 asserting essentially the same claims as the claims asserted in the initial class action complaints. Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint which the Court granted in part and denied in part.  The Court dismissed the claims related to the Company’s krill oil business but did not dismiss the claims related to the infant formula business in China. The Defendants’ response to the amended complaint is due on February 19, 2016. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously.

Outlook for 2016

For the full fiscal year 2016, the Company provides the following guidance ranges:

• Net revenues, based on the proportionate consolidation method, of between $68 million and $78 million
• Net revenues, based on the equity method of accounting, of between $56 million and $64 million
• Non-GAAP net income of between $6 million and $7 million
• Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) of between $0.25 and $0.30

2016 projected non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS include an operating loss of approximately $7 million (or $0.30 per share) in the VAYA Pharma segment, as the Company intends to invest further in expanding VAYA Pharma's operations, infrastructure and marketing activities as well as conduct clinical trials to reinforce the science and develop additional indications for VAYA Pharma’s products. The Company believes that achievements in VAYA Pharma in 2015 that contributed to the 50% growth in VAYA Pharma's revenues justify these additional investments which the Company believes will continue to increase VAYA Pharma’s revenues in 2016 and beyond. The guidance also reflects the expectation that Nutrition segment revenues and operating profit will continue to increase in 2016. Additionally, net revenues, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS are expected to expand on a sequential basis throughout the year.

Non-GAAP net income represents net income excluding (i) share-based compensation expense and (ii) other unusual income or expenses. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is diluted EPS based on Non-GAAP net income.

Forward Looking Statements

This release contains forward-looking statements, which express the current beliefs and expectations of Company management. Such statements involve a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause our future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include the following risks: a high proportion of the sales of the InFat product is sold to end users in China and to a single company; growth in the Chinese economy has moderated and this slowdown and related volatility could adversely impact demand in China for our products; the demand for products based on Omega-3 and in particular, premium products, such as krill oil, has declined and may continue to decline following a significant increase in manufacturing capacity by manufacturers of these products, resulting in intense competition and price pressure; our offering of products as "medical foods" in the United States may be challenged by regulatory authorities; we rely on our Swedish joint venture partner to manufacture InFat and certain matters related to the joint venture are the subject of disagreement in an arbitration proceeding; we are subject to a degree of customer concentration and our customers do not enter into long-term purchase commitments with us; we depend on third parties to obtain raw materials, in particular krill, necessary for the production of our products; we are dependent on a single facility that houses the majority of our operations; we may have to pay royalties with respect to sales of our krill oil products in the United States or Australia and any infringement of intellectual property of others could also require us to pay royalties; potential future acquisitions of companies or technologies may distract our management, may disrupt our business and may not yield the returns expected; we anticipate that the markets in which we participate will become more competitive and we may be unable to compete effectively; we may not be able to successfully expand our production or processing capabilities; our ability to obtain krill may be affected by conservation regulation or initiatives; our product development cycle is lengthy and uncertain, and our development or commercialization efforts for our products may be unsuccessful; and other factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2015. Forward-looking statements in this release are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are metrics used by management to measure operating performance.  Adjusted EBITDA represents net income excluding (i) financial expenses, net, (ii) taxes on income, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation expense, and (v) other unusual income or expenses, and after giving effect to the change from the equity method of accounting for our joint venture to the proportionate consolidation method.  Non-GAAP net income represents net income, excluding (i) share-based compensation expense, and (ii) other unusual income or expenses.

The Company presents adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because it believes it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expenses, net), changes in foreign exchange rates that impact financial asset and liabilities denominated in currencies other than our functional currency (affecting financial expenses, net), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates) and the age and book depreciation of fixed assets (affecting relative depreciation expense).  In addition, both adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income exclude the non-cash impact of share-based compensation and a number of unusual items that the Company does not believe reflect the underlying performance of our business.  Because adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP net income facilitate internal comparisons of operating performance on a more consistent basis, the Company also uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.  Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are not measures of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of the Company's profitability or liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under U.S. GAAP as the excluded items may have significant effects on the Company's operating results and financial condition. When evaluating the Company's performance, you should consider adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including cash flow metrics, operating income, net income, and the Company's other U.S. GAAP results.
