1. Organization and Basis for Presentation

 

Description of Business

 

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to LeMaitre, LeMaitre Vascular, the Company, we, our, and us refer to LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. and our subsidiaries. We develop, manufacture, and market medical devices and implants used primarily in the field of vascular surgery. We also derive revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. We operate in a single segment in which our principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy catheters, occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes. Our offices and production facilities are located in Burlington, Massachusetts; Fox River Grove, Illinois; North Brunswick, New Jersey; Chandler, Arizona; Vaughan, Canada; Sulzbach, Germany; Milan, Italy; Madrid, Spain; Hereford, England; Dublin, Ireland; Maisons-Alfort, France; Kensington, Australia; Tokyo, Japan; Shanghai, China; Singapore; Seoul, Korea; and Bangkok, Thailand.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of these interim periods have been included. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, sales returns and discounts, share-based compensation, and income taxes are updated as appropriate. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. The information contained in these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, including the notes thereto, included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 29, 2024.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its accounting estimates or adjustments to the carrying value of its assets and liabilities as of August 8, 2024, the issuance date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Consolidation

 

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LeMaitre Vascular and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Our revenue is derived primarily from the sale of disposable or implantable devices used during vascular surgery. We sell primarily direct to hospitals and to a lesser extent to international distributors, as described below, and, during the periods presented in our consolidated financial statements, entered into consigned inventory arrangements with either hospitals or distributors on a limited basis. We also derive revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. These revenues are recognized when services have been provided and the tissue has been shipped to the customer, provided all other revenue recognition criteria discussed in the succeeding paragraph have been met.

 

We record revenue under the provisions of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard explains that to achieve the core principle, an entity should take the following actions:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

 

Step 5: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service). In instances in which shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer takes control of the goods (such as when title passes upon shipment from our dock), we have made the policy election allowed under Topic 606 to account for these activities as fulfillment costs and not as performance obligations.

 

We generally reference customer purchase orders to determine the existence of a contract. Orders that are not accompanied by a purchase order are confirmed with the customer either in writing or verbally. The purchase orders or similar correspondence, once accepted, identify the performance obligations as well as the transaction price, and otherwise outline the rights and obligations of each party. We allocate the transaction price of each contract among the performance obligations in accordance with the pricing of each item specified on the purchase order, which is in turn based on standalone selling prices per our published price lists. In cases where we discount products or provide certain items free of charge, we allocate the discount proportionately to all performance obligations, unless it can be demonstrated that the discount should be allocated entirely to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations.

 

We record revenue, net of allowances for returns and discounts, fees paid to group purchasing organizations, and any sales and value added taxes required to be invoiced, which we have elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price as allowed by the standard, at the time of shipment (taking into consideration contractual shipping terms), or in the case of consigned inventory, when it is consumed. Shipment is the point at which control of the product and title passes to our customers, and at which LeMaitre has a present right to receive payment for the goods.

 

Below is a disaggregation of our revenue by major geographic area, which is among the primary categorizations used by management in evaluating financial performance, for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Total

We do not carry any contract assets or contract liabilities, as there are generally no unbilled amounts due from customers under contracts for which we have partially satisfied performance obligations, or amounts received from customers for which we have not satisfied performance obligations. We satisfy our performance obligations under revenue contracts within a short time period from receipt of the orders, and payments from customers are typically received within 30 to 60 days of fulfillment of the orders, except in certain geographies such as Italy, Spain and France where the payment cycle is customarily longer. Accordingly, there is no significant financing component to our revenue contracts. Additionally, we have elected as a policy that incremental costs (such as commissions) incurred to obtain contracts are expensed as incurred, due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

 

Customers returning products may be entitled to full or partial credit based on the condition and timing of the return. To be accepted, a returned product must be unopened (if sterile), unadulterated, and undamaged, must have at least 18 months remaining prior to its expiration date, or twelve months for our hospital customers in Europe, and generally be returned within 30 days of shipment. These return policies apply to sales to both hospitals and distributors. The amount of products returned to us, either for exchange or credit, has not been material. Nevertheless, we provide for an allowance for future sales returns based on historical returns experience, which requires judgment. Our cost of replacing defective products has not been material and is accounted for at the time of replacement.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies and are generally adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

 

In December 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic 740 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This amendment is expected to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities, on an annual basis, to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and certain information about income taxes paid. This revised guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

In November 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting Topic 280- Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This amendment requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

There are no other accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

 

2. Income Tax Expense

 

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to determine our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from recognition of items for income tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from taxable income during the carryback period or in the future; and to the extent we believe that recovery is not more likely than not, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must reflect this increase as an expense within the tax provision in the statement of operations. We do not provide for income taxes on undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries, as our intention is to permanently reinvest these earnings.

 

We recognize, measure, present and disclose in our financial statements any uncertain tax positions that we have taken, or expect to take, on a tax return. We operate in multiple taxing jurisdictions, both inside and outside the United States (U.S.), and may be subject to audits from various tax authorities. Management’s judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We will monitor the realizability of our deferred tax assets and adjust the valuation allowance accordingly.

 

Our policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. Our 2024 income tax expense varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises. Our 2023 income tax expense varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises.

 

We have reviewed the tax positions taken, or to be taken, in our tax returns for all tax years currently open to examination by a taxing authority. As of June 30, 2024, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits exclusive of interest and penalties was $510,000. We remain subject to examination until the statute of limitations expires for each remaining respective tax jurisdiction. The statute of limitations will be open with respect to these tax positions until 2031. A reconciliation of beginning and ending amount of our unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

3. Inventories and Other Deferred Costs

 

Inventories and other deferred costs consist of the following:

(in thousands)

 

Raw materials

  $ 19,006     $ 18,333

Other deferred costs

    7,014       5,747  
                 

Total inventory and other deferred costs

  $ 63,673     $ 58,080  

 

We had inventory on consignment at customer sites of $2.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

In connection with our RestoreFlow allograft business, other deferred costs include costs incurred for the preservation of human tissues available for shipment, tissues currently in active processing, and tissues held in quarantine pending release to implantable status. By federal law, human tissues cannot be bought or sold. Therefore, the tissues we preserve are not held as inventory, and the costs we incur to procure and process vascular tissues are instead accumulated and deferred. These costs include fixed and variable overhead costs associated with the cryopreservation process, including primarily direct labor costs, tissue recovery fees, inbound freight charges, indirect materials and facilities costs. General and administrative expenses and selling expenses associated with the provision of these services are expensed as incurred.

 

 

4. Divestitures

 

On April 26, 2022, we committed to a plan to close our St. Etienne, France factory, which supported our LeMaitre Cardial SAS (Cardial) business, to streamline manufacturing operations and reduce expenses. The Cardial business consisted of the manufacture of polyester vascular grafts, valvulotomes, surgical glue and selected OEM devices. We acquired the Cardial business in 2018.

 

On June 30, 2022, we ceased operations at the St. Etienne, France factory. The closure resulted in a restructuring charge of $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Charges primarily consisted of employment termination costs, impairment of fixed assets and inventory, and third-party costs.

 

On October 10, 2022, we sold the St. Etienne, France building, building improvements, and land for $0.9 million less closing costs of $0.1 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $0.1 million recorded for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded additional restructuring charges of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in conjunction with the St. Etienne, France factory closure. The additional charges consisted primarily of employment termination, settlement, legal and other third-party costs. There were no additional restructuring charges recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease minimum payments over the lease term at commencement date. Many of the lease agreements contain renewal or termination clauses that are factored into the determination of the lease term if it is reasonably certain that these options would be exercised. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

None of our noncancelable lease payments include non-lease components such as maintenance contracts; we generally reimburse the landlord for direct operating costs associated with the leased space. We have no subleases, and there are no residual value guarantees associated with, or restrictive covenants imposed by, any of our leases. There were no assets held under capital leases as of June 30, 2024. We elected the package of practical expedients that allow us to omit leases with initial terms of 12 months or less from our balance sheet, which are expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

 

The interest rate implicit in lease agreements is typically not readily determinable, and as such the Company used the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis.

8. Segment and Enterprise-Wide Disclosures

 

The FASB establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which separate, discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. We view our operations and manage our business as one operating segment. No discrete operating information is prepared by us except for sales by product line and operations by legal entity for local purposes.

 

Most of our revenues are generated in the U.S., Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom (UK) and other European countries. Substantially all our assets are located in the U.S. and Germany. Net sales to unaffiliated customers by country were as follows:

13. Fair Value Measurements

 

The fair value accounting guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

 

Level 1 assets being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024, included our short-term investment and short-duration bond mutual fund accounts.

 

We had no Level 2 assets being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024.

 

Several of our acquisition-related assets and liabilities have been measured using Level 3 techniques. During 2020 we recorded a contingent liability associated with our acquisition of the bovine carotid graft business from Artegraft. The agreement required us to make potential additional payments to Artegraft of up to $17.5 million depending on the achievement of certain unit sales milestones during the first three calendar years following the acquisition through December 31, 2023. We recorded this liability at a fair value of $0.4 million in 2020 to reflect management’s estimate of the likelihood of achieving these targets at the time of the Closing, as well as the time value of money until payment. This amount was remeasured each quarter during the earn-out period, with any adjustments recorded in income from operations. As of December 31, 2023, there were no unit sales milestones achieved during the earn-out period and therefore we reduced the remaining liability to zero.

 

 

During 2019, we recorded contingent liabilities associated with our acquisition of the Anteris biologic patch business. The agreement includes the potential for us to pay up to $7.8 million of additional consideration beyond payments made to date, with $0.3 million contingent upon the delivery of audited financial statements of the acquired business to us; $2.0 million (CE Mark Contingency) contingent on LeMaitre’s success in obtaining CE marks under MDR regulations on the acquired products; $0.5 million contingent upon Anteris’ success in extending the shelf life of the acquired products as specified in the agreement; and another $5.0 million contingent on the achievement of specified levels of revenues in the first 12 and 24 months following the acquisition date. This additional contingent consideration was initially valued in total at $2.3 million and is being re-measured each quarter until the payment requirement ends, with any adjustments reported in income from operations. The contingent payment related to the delivery of audited financial statements of the business was paid in November 2019 upon satisfaction of the deliverable. The contingent payments related to Anteris’ extending the shelf life of the acquired products and achieving the revenue targets during the first 12- and 24-month periods following the acquisition were not met, and the portion of the liabilities related to these items was adjusted through income from operations. The agreement was amended in August 2021 such that the CE Mark Contingency amount may be reduced for certain costs incurred by LeMaitre in achieving the CE marks. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, we recorded a reduction to the liability of $0.5 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations, to reflect our estimate of costs to be deducted from the contingent payment in connection with this amendment. Additionally, during the quarter ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a reduction to the liability of approximately $0.1 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations.

 

In September 2023 the agreement was amended in order to (i) place a cap on the total amount of costs incurred by LeMaitre in achieving the CE marks under MDR regulations that could be used as a deduction toward the $2.0 million holdback, and (ii) require a prorata payment to Anteris of the CE Mark Contingency, less costs described above, by January 2025 if the CE marks are not obtained by that date. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a reduction to the liability of $0.1 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations.

 

The following table provides a roll-forward of the fair value of these liabilities, as determined by Level 3 unobservable inputs including management’s forecast of future revenues for the acquired businesses, as well as management’s estimates of the likelihood of achieving the other specified criteria:

Overview

 

We are a global provider of medical devices and human tissue cryopreservation services largely used in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease, end-stage renal disease, and to a lesser extent cardiovascular disease. We develop, manufacture, and market vascular devices to address the needs of vascular surgeons and, to a lesser degree, other specialties such as cardiac surgeons, general surgeons and neurosurgeons. Our diversified portfolio of devices consists of brand name products that are used in arteries and veins and are well known to vascular surgeons. Our principal product offerings are sold globally, primarily in the U.S., Europe, Canada and Asia Pacific. We estimate that the annual worldwide market for peripheral vascular devices exceeds $5 billion, within which we estimate that the market for our products is approximately $800 million. We have grown our business using a three-pronged strategy: 1) pursuing a focused call point, 2) competing for sales of low-rivalry, niche products, and 3) expanding our worldwide direct sales force while acquiring complementary devices. We have used acquisitions as a primary means of further penetrating the peripheral vascular device market, and we expect to continue this strategy in the future. We currently manufacture most of our products in our Burlington, Massachusetts headquarters.

 

 

Our products and services are used primarily by vascular surgeons who treat peripheral vascular disease through both open surgical methods and endovascular techniques. In contrast to interventional cardiologists and interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons can perform both open surgical and minimally invasive endovascular procedures, and therefore can provide a wider range of treatment options to their patients. Recently we have also begun to explore adjacent market customers, or non-vascular surgeon customers, who can be served by our vascular device technologies, such as cardiac surgeons and interventional cardiologists.

 

Our principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy and occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes. Through our RestoreFlow allografts business, we also process and cryopreserve human vascular and cardiac tissue.

 

Our principal biologic offerings include vascular and cardiac patches as well as vascular and dialysis grafts. In Q2 2024, biologics represented 52% of our worldwide sales. We believe our biologic devices represent differentiated and, in some cases, growing product segments.

 

To assist us in evaluating our business strategies, we monitor long-term technology trends in the peripheral vascular device market. Additionally, we consider the information obtained from discussions with the medical community in connection with the demand for our products, including potential new product launches. We also use this information to help determine our competitive position in the peripheral vascular device market and our manufacturing capacity requirements.

 

Our business opportunities include the following:

 

 

growing our direct sales force in North America, Europe, the UK, and Asia Pacific, including replacing distributors with our direct sales personnel;

   

 

 

increasing the average selling prices for our devices;

   

 

 

introducing our products into new territories upon receipt of regulatory approvals or registrations;

 

 

acquiring complementary products, and the transition of distributor sales to LeMaitre;

   

 

 

updating existing products and introducing new products through research and development; and

   

 

 

consolidating product manufacturing into our Burlington, Massachusetts facilities.

 

We sell our products and services primarily through a direct sales force. As of June 30, 2024, our sales force was comprised of 144 sales representatives in North America, Europe, the UK, and Asia Pacific, including four export managers. Our worldwide headquarters is located in Burlington, Massachusetts, and we also have North American sales offices in Chandler, Arizona and Vaughan, Canada. Our European headquarters is located in Sulzbach, Germany, and we also have European sales offices in Milan, Italy; Madrid, Spain; Hereford, England; Dublin, Ireland; and Maisons-Alfort, France. Our Asia Pacific headquarters is located in Singapore, and we also have Asia Pacific sales offices in Tokyo, Japan; Shanghai, China; Kensington, Australia; Seoul, Korea; and Bangkok, Thailand. During the current quarter, approximately 95% of our net sales were generated in territories in which we employ direct sales representatives. We sell our products in other countries through distributors.

 

Historically we have experienced success in lower-rivalry niche segments. In the valvulotome market, for example, our differentiated devices have historically allowed us to increase our selling prices while maintaining unit share. In contrast, we have experienced less success in competitive markets such as the polyester vascular graft market, where we face competition from larger companies with greater resources and lower per unit costs.

 

We have also experienced success in international markets, such as Europe, where we have a significant sales force, and sometimes offer lower average selling prices than in North America. If we continue to seek growth opportunities outside of North America, we may experience downward pressure on our gross margin.

 

We obtain regulatory approvals for our devices and services in new segments and geographies in order to further access the broader peripheral device market and selected other markets. While much of our regulatory effort is focused on maintaining regulatory approvals in various geographies, we will continue to obtain new product approvals in new geographies in order to extend our geographic reach and increase sales. Recent approvals include the approval to sell the XenoSure patch for carotid indication in Japan in May 2023, and the approval to sell the Pruitt Irrigation Occlusion Catheter in China in October 2023.

 

 

Separately, in July 2024, we received MDR CE marks allowing for the continued sale of 10 devices into the European market. Previously we had obtained 4 MDR CE marks. In total, we expect to receive 22 MDR CE marks by the end of 2025. The European Commission has designated the end of 2027 as the final MDR CE mark deadline.

 

Our strategy for growing our business includes the acquisition of complementary product lines and companies, which can be difficult to identify, negotiate and purchase. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.

 

 

In June 2020, we entered into an agreement with Artegraft to purchase the assets of their bovine graft business for $72.5 million plus additional payments of up to $17.5 million, contingent upon future unit sales.

 

Occasionally we discontinue or divest products that are no longer complementary to our business or not commercially viable.

 

 

During 2021, we made decisions to wind down or discontinue TRIVEX powered phlebectomy systems, remote endarterectomy devices and surgical glue. These products totaled approximately $2.2 million in 2021 revenues.

   

 

 

During 2022, we made the decision to wind down the ProCol graft, AlboSure polyester patch, LeverEdge and Latis graft cleaning catheter product lines. These products totaled approximately $0.7 million in 2022 revenues.

   

 

 

During 2023, we made the decision to discontinue the sales of AlboGraft and LifeSpan synthetic graft product lines in the U.S. These products totaled approximately $0.3 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively, in 2023 revenues.

 

From time to time we may undertake SKU reductions and attempt to transition sales to other SKUs or products with similar features. For example, in 2022, we initiated the transition of sales of our Syntel spring tip catheter to our Syntel regular tip catheter. Any of these actions may result in inventory write-offs and temporary or permanent negative impacts to our sales, gross margin and customer relationships.

 

Because we believe that direct-to-hospital sales engender closer customer relationships, and allow for higher selling prices and gross margins, we periodically enter into transactions with country-specific distributors to transition their sales of our medical devices into our direct sales organization:

 

 

In May 2022, we entered into a distribution transition agreement with our Korean distributor to sell products directly in Korea and dissolve the existing distribution arrangement. We have been selling direct-to-hospital in Korea since December 2022. The distribution termination fees totaled approximately $0.5 million.

   

 

 

In March 2023, we entered into a distribution transition agreement with our Thai distributor to sell products directly in Thailand and dissolve the existing distribution arrangement. We have been selling direct-to-hospital in Thailand since August 2023. The distribution termination fees totaled approximately $0.7 million.

 

We also benefit, to a lesser extent, from internal product development efforts to bring differentiated technologies and next-generation products and services to market:

 

 

In March 2022, we received U.S. FDA clearance to market PhasTIPP, a portable powered phlebotomy device used to remove varicose veins in the leg. The device was launched in the U.S. in April 2024.

 

In addition to our sales growth strategies, we have also executed several operational initiatives designed to consolidate manufacturing into our Burlington facilities. We expect these plant consolidations and manufacturing transfers will result in improved control over production quality as well as reduced costs. Our most recent manufacturing transfers included:

 

 

In October 2018, we acquired the Cardial business from Becton Dickinson. Cardial manufactured polyester vascular grafts, valvulotomes and surgical glue at its St. Etienne, France facility. In June 2022, we closed the St. Etienne factory to streamline manufacturing operations and to reduce expenses. We are transitioning Cardial graft sales to our Burlington-manufactured AlboGraft product for additional cost savings and improved margins.

   

 

 

In October 2019, we acquired the CardioCel and VascuCel biologic patch businesses from Anteris. In July 2020, we initiated a project to transfer production to our Burlington facilities. The transfer to Burlington was substantially completed in 2023. In June 2023, the MDR CE mark application for these Burlington-produced devices was submitted, and we anticipate this application process to take 18-30 months. We began distributing these Burlington-produced patches in the U.S. and select APAC markets in Q2 2024, and in Canada in July 2024.

 

 

Finally, from time to time we enter into distribution agreements of complementary product lines with an option to acquire the product line in the future.

 

 

In April 2023, we entered into an agreement with Elutia Inc. to become the exclusive U.S. distributor of their cardiovascular porcine patches. Under the agreement, we can distribute the products for three years with an option to acquire Elutia Inc’s worldwide cardiovascular porcine patch business during the second and third year of the agreement. Sales through LeMaitre Vascular for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, were $4.1 million. Sales through LeMaitre Vascular for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $2.7 million.

 

Our execution of these initiatives may affect the comparability of our financial results and may cause fluctuations from period to period.

 

In February 2024, we began implementing a new enterprise resource planning system (ERP) to replace our financial reporting and planning system. We expect that the new ERP system will be beneficial in a number of areas, including inventory management, pricing programs, financial operations and real-time reporting. We have been preparing for this transition since 2022 and have hired an experienced consulting team to assist in this transition, and in the U.S., we transitioned from our legacy ERP system to our newly implemented Microsoft Dynamics D365 system in Q1 2024. We expect to implement this new system in selected countries in Europe in 2025. As of June 30, 2024, we have capitalized costs on our balance sheet of approximately $3.9 million associated with this ERP system.

 

Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, affect our financial results. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, approximately 42% of our sales took place outside of the U.S., largely in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We expect foreign currencies will represent a significant percentage of future sales. Selling, marketing, and administrative costs related to these sales are also denominated in foreign currencies, thereby partially mitigating our bottom-line exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. However, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases we will record less revenue in U.S. dollars than we did before the exchange rate changed. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we estimate that the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates decreased our reported sales by $0.4 million, as compared to rates in effect for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Net Sales and Expense Components

 

The following is a description of the primary components of our net sales and expenses:

 

Net sales. We derive our net sales from the sale of our products and services, less discounts and returns. Net sales include the shipping and handling fees paid for by our customers. Most of our sales are generated by our direct sales force and are shipped and billed to hospitals or clinics throughout the world. In countries where we do not have a direct sales force, sales are primarily to distributors, who in turn sell to hospitals and clinics. In certain cases, our products are held on consignment at a hospital or clinic prior to purchase; in those instances, we recognize revenue at the time the product is used in surgery rather than at shipment.

 

Cost of sales. We manufacture the majority of the products that we sell. Our cost of sales consists primarily of manufacturing personnel, raw materials and components, depreciation of property and equipment, and other allocated manufacturing overhead, as well as the freight expense we pay to ship products to customers.

 

Sales and marketing. Our sales and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, stock-based compensation, travel and entertainment, sales meetings, attendance at vascular and cardiac congresses, training programs, advertising and product promotions, direct mail and other marketing costs.

 

General and administrative. General and administrative expense consists primarily of executive, finance and human resource salaries, stock-based compensation, legal and accounting fees, information technology expense, intangible asset amortization expense and insurance expense.

 

Research and development. Research and development expense primarily includes costs associated with obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our products, salaries, laboratory testing and supply costs. It also includes costs associated with the design and execution of clinical studies, costs to register, maintain, and defend our intellectual property, and costs to transfer the manufacturing of acquired product lines to our Burlington facility. Also included are costs associated with the design, development, testing and enhancement of new or existing products.

 

 

Other income (expense). Other income (expense) primarily includes interest income and expense, foreign currency gains (losses), and other miscellaneous gains (losses).

 

Income tax expense. We are subject to federal and state income taxes for earnings generated in the U.S., which include operating losses or profits in certain foreign jurisdictions for certain years depending on tax elections made, and foreign taxes on earnings of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. Our consolidated tax expense is affected by the mix of our taxable income (loss) in the U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, permanent items, discrete items, unrecognized tax benefits, and amortization of goodwill for U.S. tax reporting purposes.

Net sales. Net sales increased by $5.7 million, or 11%, to $55.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $50.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by higher average selling prices, strong hospital procedure volumes, and additional sales representatives. Allograft preservation services increased $1.3 million, carotid shunt sales increased $1.0 million, bovine vascular patch sales increased $0.9 million, and valvulotome sales increased $0.8 million. We estimate that the stronger U.S. dollar decreased net sales by $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Direct-to-hospital net sales were 95% of our total net sales for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Net sales increased by $12.1 million, or 12%, to $109.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $97.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by higher average selling prices, strong hospital procedure volumes, additional sales representatives, and sales related to our new porcine patch product line. Allograft preservation services increased $2.6 million, carotid shunt sales increased $2.2 million, bovine vascular patch sales increased $1.9 million, and porcine patch sales increased $1.5 million. We estimate that the stronger U.S. dollar decreased net sales by $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Direct-to-hospital net sales were 95% and 96% of our total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Net sales by geography. Net sales in the Americas increased $3.4 million, or 10%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of allograft preservation services of $1.0 million, bovine grafts and bovine vascular patches of $0.7 million each, and valvulotomes of $0.5 million.

 

Net sales in the Americas increased $6.5 million, or 10%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of allograft preservation services of $2.2 million, porcine patches of $1.5 million, and bovine vascular patches and bovine grafts of $1.0 million each.

 

EMEA net sales increased $1.7 million, or 13%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of carotid shunts of $0.7 million, and polyester grafts and allograft preservation services of $0.3 million each.

 

 

EMEA net sales increased $3.8 million, or 15%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of carotid shunts of $1.6 million, bovine vascular patches of $0.7 million, allograft preservation services of $0.4 million, and polyester grafts of $0.3 million.

 

Asia Pacific net sales increased $0.6 million, or 20%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of over-the-wire embolectomy catheters of $0.3 million and ePTFE vascular grafts of $0.1 million.

 

Asia Pacific net sales increased $1.8 million, or 31%, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of over-the-wire embolectomy catheters of $0.5 million, ePTFE vascular grafts of $0.4 million, and occlusion catheters and embolectomy catheters of $0.2 million each.

Gross profit increased $6.4 million, or 20%, to $38.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and gross margin increased 490 basis points to 68.9% in the period. The increase in gross profit was driven primarily by increased sales, particularly from allograft preservation services, carotid shunts, bovine vascular patches and valvulotomes. The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by greater manufacturing efficiencies, sales price increases, and favorable product mix, which was partially offset by increased shipping and warehousing costs and unfavorable foreign exchange rates due to the stronger U.S. dollar.

Sales and marketing. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, sales and marketing expenses increased 8% to $11.0 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher sales representative headcount, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $0.7 million. Additionally, travel and training expenses increased $0.2 million and facility expenses increased $0.1 million. The increase was partially offset by lower outside services and general supplies of $0.2 million. Sales rep headcount was 144 as of June 30, 2024, an 8% increase from June 30, 2023. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses remained consistent at 20% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 versus the prior year period.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, sales and marketing expenses increased 7% to $22.7 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher sales representative headcount, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $1.0 million. Additionally, travel, training and sales meetings expenses increased $0.9 million and facility expenses increased $0.1 million. The increase was partially offset by lower outside services and general supplies of $0.4 million. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, down from 22% in the prior year period.

 

General and administrative. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, general and administrative expenses increased 14% to $8.8 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher outside services and professional fees, compensation and related expenses, and facilities expenses of $0.3 million each. Additionally, bad debt expenses increased $0.1 million due to increased uncertainty of accounts receivable collectability related to a small number of our customers. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 16% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, up from 15% in the prior year period.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, general and administrative expenses increased 14% to $17.8 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher outside services and professional fees of $1.1 million, compensation and related expenses of $0.5 million, facilities expenses of $0.2 million, and travel and training of $0.1 million. Additionally, bad debt expenses increased $0.2 million due to the increased uncertainty of accounts receivable collectability related to a small number of our customers. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses remained consistent at 16% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 versus the prior year period

 

Research and development. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, research and development expenses decreased 5% to $4.3 million. The decrease was driven by lower outside services, professional fees and testing of $0.3 million related to elevated MDD and MDR services performed in the prior period. Additionally, process engineering expenses decreased $0.1 million as CardioCel device manufacturing was initiated at our Burlington facility, and related expenses were allocated to cost of sales. The decrease was partially offset by higher compensation and related expenses of $0.2 million. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses decreased to 8% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, down from 9% in the prior year period.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, research and development expenses were unchanged at $8.4 million. Compensation and related expenses increased $0.4 million, offset primarily by lower outside services, professional fees and testing of $0.3 million and facilities expenses of $0.2 million. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses decreased to 8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, down from 9% in the prior year period.

 

Restructuring. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no restructuring expenses. On June 30, 2022, we ceased operations at our St. Etienne, France factory. The closure resulted in a restructuring charge of $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. These charges consisted primarily of employment termination costs, impairment of fixed assets and inventory, and third-party costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded additional restructuring expenses of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The additional expenses consisted primarily of employment termination, settlement, legal and other third-party costs.

 

Income tax expense. We recorded a tax provision of $3.7 million on pre-tax income of $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a $2.2 million tax provision on pre-tax income of $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We recorded a tax provision of $6.6 million on pre-tax income of $28.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a tax provision of $4.2 million on pre-tax income of $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Our effective income tax rate was 23.7% and 23.3% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024. Our tax expense for the current period is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of 24.3%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly periods for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for the current period varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.

 

Our effective income tax rate was 21.5% and 22.8% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023. Our 2023 provision was based on the estimated annual effective tax rate of 25.6%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly period for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.

 

We monitor the mix of profitability by tax jurisdiction and adjust our annual expected rate on a quarterly basis as needed. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or timing of the resolution for any particular tax matter, we believe our tax reserves reflect the probable outcome of known contingencies.

 

 

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income and record a valuation allowance to reduce gross deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. As of June 30, 2024, we have provided a valuation allowance of $1.7 million for deferred tax assets primarily related to Australian net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards and Massachusetts tax credit carry forwards that are not expected to be realized.

 

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was enacted into law on August 16, 2022. Included in the IRA was a provision to implement a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on “adjusted financial statement income” for applicable corporations and a 1% excise tax on repurchases of stock. These provisions are effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. We do not currently believe the IRA will have a material impact on our reported results, cash flows or financial position.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents were $22.3 million as compared to $24.3 million as of December 31, 2023. We had $90.8 million in short-term marketable securities as of June 30, 2024, and $80.8 million as of December 31, 2023. Our cash and cash equivalents are liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase and consist primarily of operating bank accounts. Our short-term marketable securities consist of a managed income mutual fund investing mainly in short-term investment grade, U.S. dollar denominated fixed and floating-rate debt, and a short-duration bond fund. As of June 30, 2024, our short-term marketable securities reflected an unrealized loss of $1.2 million as a result of increasing market interest rates.

 

On February 21, 2024, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock through transactions on the open market, in privately negotiated purchases or otherwise until February 21, 2025. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. To date we have not made any repurchases under this program.

 

Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements 

 

We require cash to pay our operating expenses, make capital expenditures, and pay our long-term liabilities. Since our inception, we have funded our operations through public offerings and private placements of equity securities, short-term and long-term borrowings, and funds generated from our operations.

 

We recognized operating income of $26.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $17.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we had operating income of $36.7 million. We expect to fund any increased costs and expenditures from our existing cash and cash equivalents, though our future capital requirements depend on numerous factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

 

revenues generated by sales of our products and services;

   

 

 

payments associated with potential future quarterly cash dividends to our common stockholders;

   

 

 

future acquisition-related payments;

   

 

 

payments associated with income and other taxes;

   

 

 

costs associated with expanding our manufacturing, marketing, sales, and distribution efforts;

   

 

 

costs associated with our initiatives to sell direct-to-hospital in new countries;

   

 

 

costs of obtaining and maintaining U.S. FDA and other regulatory clearances;

 

 

costs associated with obtaining European MDR CE mark approvals;

   

 

 

the number, timing, and nature of acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions; and

   

 

 

potential future share repurchases.

 

 

Our cash balances may decrease as we continue to use cash to fund our operations, make acquisitions, pay dividends, repurchase shares of our common stock and make deferred payments related to prior acquisitions. We believe that our cash, cash equivalents, investments and the interest we earn on these balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months and to meet our known long-term cash requirements. If these sources of cash are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements beyond the next twelve months, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or take out a loan. The sale of additional equity and debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders, as was the case with our July 2021 equity offering. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities, such securities could have rights senior to those of our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations and possibly our ability to pay dividends. We may require additional capital beyond our currently forecasted amounts. Any required additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all.

 

Dividends 

 

In February 2011, our Board of Directors approved a policy for the payment of quarterly cash dividends on our common stock. Future declarations of quarterly dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to approval by our Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. The dividend activity for the periods presented is as follows:

Net cash used in financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities was $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, consisting of proceeds from stock option exercises of $4.4 million, net of shares repurchased used to pay employee payroll taxes. This proceed of cash was offset by dividend payments of $7.2 million.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, consisting of proceeds from stock option exercises of $4.9 million, net of shares repurchased used to pay employee payroll taxes. This proceed of cash was offset by dividend payments of $6.2 million.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

We have adopted various accounting policies to prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Our most significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, contingent consideration and income taxes are reviewed on an ongoing basis and updated as appropriate. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

A summary of recent accounting pronouncements that may impact our financial statements upon adoption in future periods can be found in Note 1 to our financial statements included under Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

In the ordinary course of conducting business, we are exposed to certain risks associated with potential changes in market conditions. These market risks include changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates which could affect operating results, financial position and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, if considered appropriate, we may enter into derivative financial instruments such as forward currency exchange contracts, although we have not done so in 2024 or in recent years. There have been no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative market risks since the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified under SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We design our disclosure controls and procedures to ensure, at reasonable assurance levels, that such information is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported, and then accumulated and communicated appropriately.

 

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at reasonable assurance levels.

 

Changes in Internal Control

 

As previously disclosed, in February 2024 we began implementing a new ERP system. The ERP implementation requires the integration of new ERP software with multiple new and existing data flows and business processes. The new ERP is designed to accurately maintain our books and records and provide information to our management team which is important to the operations of the business. As the phased implementation of the new ERP system progresses, we expect to continue to change certain processes and procedures which, in turn, are expected to result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. As such changes occur, we will evaluate quarterly whether such changes materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

Other than the new ERP system implementation, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any system will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

 

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations, proceedings, and threats of litigation relating to employment, product liability, commercial arrangements, contracts, intellectual property and other matters. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, there are no matters, as of August 8, 2024, that management believes would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. However, we cannot provide any assurance that any risk factor will not materialize.

Description of Business

 

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to LeMaitre, LeMaitre Vascular, the Company, we, our, and us refer to LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. and our subsidiaries. We develop, manufacture, and market medical devices and implants used primarily in the field of vascular surgery. We also derive revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. We operate in a single segment in which our principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy catheters, occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes. Our offices and production facilities are located in Burlington, Massachusetts; Fox River Grove, Illinois; North Brunswick, New Jersey; Chandler, Arizona; Vaughan, Canada; Sulzbach, Germany; Milan, Italy; Madrid, Spain; Hereford, England; Dublin, Ireland; Maisons-Alfort, France; Kensington, Australia; Tokyo, Japan; Shanghai, China; Singapore; Seoul, Korea; and Bangkok, Thailand.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of these interim periods have been included. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, sales returns and discounts, share-based compensation, and income taxes are updated as appropriate. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. The information contained in these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, including the notes thereto, included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 29, 2024.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its accounting estimates or adjustments to the carrying value of its assets and liabilities as of August 8, 2024, the issuance date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Consolidation

 

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LeMaitre Vascular and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Our revenue is derived primarily from the sale of disposable or implantable devices used during vascular surgery. We sell primarily direct to hospitals and to a lesser extent to international distributors, as described below, and, during the periods presented in our consolidated financial statements, entered into consigned inventory arrangements with either hospitals or distributors on a limited basis. We also derive revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. These revenues are recognized when services have been provided and the tissue has been shipped to the customer, provided all other revenue recognition criteria discussed in the succeeding paragraph have been met.

 

We record revenue under the provisions of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard explains that to achieve the core principle, an entity should take the following actions:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

 

Step 5: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service). In instances in which shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer takes control of the goods (such as when title passes upon shipment from our dock), we have made the policy election allowed under Topic 606 to account for these activities as fulfillment costs and not as performance obligations.

 

We generally reference customer purchase orders to determine the existence of a contract. Orders that are not accompanied by a purchase order are confirmed with the customer either in writing or verbally. The purchase orders or similar correspondence, once accepted, identify the performance obligations as well as the transaction price, and otherwise outline the rights and obligations of each party. We allocate the transaction price of each contract among the performance obligations in accordance with the pricing of each item specified on the purchase order, which is in turn based on standalone selling prices per our published price lists. In cases where we discount products or provide certain items free of charge, we allocate the discount proportionately to all performance obligations, unless it can be demonstrated that the discount should be allocated entirely to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations.

 

We record revenue, net of allowances for returns and discounts, fees paid to group purchasing organizations, and any sales and value added taxes required to be invoiced, which we have elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price as allowed by the standard, at the time of shipment (taking into consideration contractual shipping terms), or in the case of consigned inventory, when it is consumed. Shipment is the point at which control of the product and title passes to our customers, and at which LeMaitre has a present right to receive payment for the goods.

 

Below is a disaggregation of our revenue by major geographic area, which is among the primary categorizations used by management in evaluating financial performance, for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Total

  $ 55,849     $ 50,115     $ 109,327     $ 97,190  

 

We do not carry any contract assets or contract liabilities, as there are generally no unbilled amounts due from customers under contracts for which we have partially satisfied performance obligations, or amounts received from customers for which we have not satisfied performance obligations. We satisfy our performance obligations under revenue contracts within a short time period from receipt of the orders, and payments from customers are typically received within 30 to 60 days of fulfillment of the orders, except in certain geographies such as Italy, Spain and France where the payment cycle is customarily longer. Accordingly, there is no significant financing component to our revenue contracts. Additionally, we have elected as a policy that incremental costs (such as commissions) incurred to obtain contracts are expensed as incurred, due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

 

Customers returning products may be entitled to full or partial credit based on the condition and timing of the return. To be accepted, a returned product must be unopened (if sterile), unadulterated, and undamaged, must have at least 18 months remaining prior to its expiration date, or twelve months for our hospital customers in Europe, and generally be returned within 30 days of shipment. These return policies apply to sales to both hospitals and distributors. The amount of products returned to us, either for exchange or credit, has not been material. Nevertheless, we provide for an allowance for future sales returns based on historical returns experience, which requires judgment. Our cost of replacing defective products has not been material and is accounted for at the time of replacement.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies and are generally adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

 

In December 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic 740 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This amendment is expected to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities, on an annual basis, to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and certain information about income taxes paid. This revised guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

In November 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting Topic 280- Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This amendment requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

There are no other accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

2. Income Tax Expense

 

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to determine our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from recognition of items for income tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from taxable income during the carryback period or in the future; and to the extent we believe that recovery is not more likely than not, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must reflect this increase as an expense within the tax provision in the statement of operations. We do not provide for income taxes on undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries, as our intention is to permanently reinvest these earnings.

 

We recognize, measure, present and disclose in our financial statements any uncertain tax positions that we have taken, or expect to take, on a tax return. We operate in multiple taxing jurisdictions, both inside and outside the United States (U.S.), and may be subject to audits from various tax authorities. Management’s judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We will monitor the realizability of our deferred tax assets and adjust the valuation allowance accordingly.

 

Our policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. Our 2024 income tax expense varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises. Our 2023 income tax expense varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises.

 

We have reviewed the tax positions taken, or to be taken, in our tax returns for all tax years currently open to examination by a taxing authority. As of June 30, 2024, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits exclusive of interest and penalties was $510,000. We remain subject to examination until the statute of limitations expires for each remaining respective tax jurisdiction. The statute of limitations will be open with respect to these tax positions until 2031. A reconciliation of beginning and ending amount of our unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

We had inventory on consignment at customer sites of $2.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

In connection with our RestoreFlow allograft business, other deferred costs include costs incurred for the preservation of human tissues available for shipment, tissues currently in active processing, and tissues held in quarantine pending release to implantable status. By federal law, human tissues cannot be bought or sold. Therefore, the tissues we preserve are not held as inventory, and the costs we incur to procure and process vascular tissues are instead accumulated and deferred. These costs include fixed and variable overhead costs associated with the cryopreservation process, including primarily direct labor costs, tissue recovery fees, inbound freight charges, indirect materials and facilities costs. General and administrative expenses and selling expenses associated with the provision of these services are expensed as incurred.

4. Divestitures

 

On April 26, 2022, we committed to a plan to close our St. Etienne, France factory, which supported our LeMaitre Cardial SAS (Cardial) business, to streamline manufacturing operations and reduce expenses. The Cardial business consisted of the manufacture of polyester vascular grafts, valvulotomes, surgical glue and selected OEM devices. We acquired the Cardial business in 2018.

 

On June 30, 2022, we ceased operations at the St. Etienne, France factory. The closure resulted in a restructuring charge of $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Charges primarily consisted of employment termination costs, impairment of fixed assets and inventory, and third-party costs.

 

On October 10, 2022, we sold the St. Etienne, France building, building improvements, and land for $0.9 million less closing costs of $0.1 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $0.1 million recorded for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded additional restructuring charges of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in conjunction with the St. Etienne, France factory closure. The additional charges consisted primarily of employment termination, settlement, legal and other third-party costs. There were no additional restructuring charges recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease minimum payments over the lease term at commencement date. Many of the lease agreements contain renewal or termination clauses that are factored into the determination of the lease term if it is reasonably certain that these options would be exercised. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

None of our noncancelable lease payments include non-lease components such as maintenance contracts; we generally reimburse the landlord for direct operating costs associated with the leased space. We have no subleases, and there are no residual value guarantees associated with, or restrictive covenants imposed by, any of our leases. There were no assets held under capital leases as of June 30, 2024. We elected the package of practical expedients that allow us to omit leases with initial terms of 12 months or less from our balance sheet, which are expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

 

The interest rate implicit in lease agreements is typically not readily determinable, and as such the Company used the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis.

The FASB establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which separate, discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. We view our operations and manage our business as one operating segment. No discrete operating information is prepared by us except for sales by product line and operations by legal entity for local purposes.

Note 13 - Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]

13. Fair Value Measurements

 

The fair value accounting guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

 

Level 1 assets being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024, included our short-term investment and short-duration bond mutual fund accounts.

 

We had no Level 2 assets being measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024.

 

Several of our acquisition-related assets and liabilities have been measured using Level 3 techniques. During 2020 we recorded a contingent liability associated with our acquisition of the bovine carotid graft business from Artegraft. The agreement required us to make potential additional payments to Artegraft of up to $17.5 million depending on the achievement of certain unit sales milestones during the first three calendar years following the acquisition through December 31, 2023. We recorded this liability at a fair value of $0.4 million in 2020 to reflect management’s estimate of the likelihood of achieving these targets at the time of the Closing, as well as the time value of money until payment. This amount was remeasured each quarter during the earn-out period, with any adjustments recorded in income from operations. As of December 31, 2023, there were no unit sales milestones achieved during the earn-out period and therefore we reduced the remaining liability to zero.

 

 

During 2019, we recorded contingent liabilities associated with our acquisition of the Anteris biologic patch business. The agreement includes the potential for us to pay up to $7.8 million of additional consideration beyond payments made to date, with $0.3 million contingent upon the delivery of audited financial statements of the acquired business to us; $2.0 million (CE Mark Contingency) contingent on LeMaitre’s success in obtaining CE marks under MDR regulations on the acquired products; $0.5 million contingent upon Anteris’ success in extending the shelf life of the acquired products as specified in the agreement; and another $5.0 million contingent on the achievement of specified levels of revenues in the first 12 and 24 months following the acquisition date. This additional contingent consideration was initially valued in total at $2.3 million and is being re-measured each quarter until the payment requirement ends, with any adjustments reported in income from operations. The contingent payment related to the delivery of audited financial statements of the business was paid in November 2019 upon satisfaction of the deliverable. The contingent payments related to Anteris’ extending the shelf life of the acquired products and achieving the revenue targets during the first 12- and 24-month periods following the acquisition were not met, and the portion of the liabilities related to these items was adjusted through income from operations. The agreement was amended in August 2021 such that the CE Mark Contingency amount may be reduced for certain costs incurred by LeMaitre in achieving the CE marks. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, we recorded a reduction to the liability of $0.5 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations, to reflect our estimate of costs to be deducted from the contingent payment in connection with this amendment. Additionally, during the quarter ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a reduction to the liability of approximately $0.1 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations.

 

In September 2023 the agreement was amended in order to (i) place a cap on the total amount of costs incurred by LeMaitre in achieving the CE marks under MDR regulations that could be used as a deduction toward the $2.0 million holdback, and (ii) require a prorata payment to Anteris of the CE Mark Contingency, less costs described above, by January 2025 if the CE marks are not obtained by that date. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a reduction to the liability of $0.1 million, with the offset recorded in income from operations.

 

The following table provides a roll-forward of the fair value of these liabilities, as determined by Level 3 unobservable inputs including management’s forecast of future revenues for the acquired businesses, as well as management’s estimates of the likelihood of achieving the other specified criteria:

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of these interim periods have been included. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, sales returns and discounts, share-based compensation, and income taxes are updated as appropriate. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. The information contained in these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, including the notes thereto, included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 29, 2024.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its accounting estimates or adjustments to the carrying value of its assets and liabilities as of August 8, 2024, the issuance date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Consolidation

 

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LeMaitre Vascular and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

 

Our revenue is derived primarily from the sale of disposable or implantable devices used during vascular surgery. We sell primarily direct to hospitals and to a lesser extent to international distributors, as described below, and, during the periods presented in our consolidated financial statements, entered into consigned inventory arrangements with either hospitals or distributors on a limited basis. We also derive revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. These revenues are recognized when services have been provided and the tissue has been shipped to the customer, provided all other revenue recognition criteria discussed in the succeeding paragraph have been met.

 

We record revenue under the provisions of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard explains that to achieve the core principle, an entity should take the following actions:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

 

Step 5: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service). In instances in which shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer takes control of the goods (such as when title passes upon shipment from our dock), we have made the policy election allowed under Topic 606 to account for these activities as fulfillment costs and not as performance obligations.

 

We generally reference customer purchase orders to determine the existence of a contract. Orders that are not accompanied by a purchase order are confirmed with the customer either in writing or verbally. The purchase orders or similar correspondence, once accepted, identify the performance obligations as well as the transaction price, and otherwise outline the rights and obligations of each party. We allocate the transaction price of each contract among the performance obligations in accordance with the pricing of each item specified on the purchase order, which is in turn based on standalone selling prices per our published price lists. In cases where we discount products or provide certain items free of charge, we allocate the discount proportionately to all performance obligations, unless it can be demonstrated that the discount should be allocated entirely to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations.

 

We record revenue, net of allowances for returns and discounts, fees paid to group purchasing organizations, and any sales and value added taxes required to be invoiced, which we have elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price as allowed by the standard, at the time of shipment (taking into consideration contractual shipping terms), or in the case of consigned inventory, when it is consumed. Shipment is the point at which control of the product and title passes to our customers, and at which LeMaitre has a present right to receive payment for the goods.

 

Below is a disaggregation of our revenue by major geographic area, which is among the primary categorizations used by management in evaluating financial performance, for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Total

We do not carry any contract assets or contract liabilities, as there are generally no unbilled amounts due from customers under contracts for which we have partially satisfied performance obligations, or amounts received from customers for which we have not satisfied performance obligations. We satisfy our performance obligations under revenue contracts within a short time period from receipt of the orders, and payments from customers are typically received within 30 to 60 days of fulfillment of the orders, except in certain geographies such as Italy, Spain and France where the payment cycle is customarily longer. Accordingly, there is no significant financing component to our revenue contracts. Additionally, we have elected as a policy that incremental costs (such as commissions) incurred to obtain contracts are expensed as incurred, due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

 

Customers returning products may be entitled to full or partial credit based on the condition and timing of the return. To be accepted, a returned product must be unopened (if sterile), unadulterated, and undamaged, must have at least 18 months remaining prior to its expiration date, or twelve months for our hospital customers in Europe, and generally be returned within 30 days of shipment. These return policies apply to sales to both hospitals and distributors. The amount of products returned to us, either for exchange or credit, has not been material. Nevertheless, we provide for an allowance for future sales returns based on historical returns experience, which requires judgment. Our cost of replacing defective products has not been material and is accounted for at the time of replacement.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies and are generally adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

 

In December 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic 740 - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This amendment is expected to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities, on an annual basis, to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and certain information about income taxes paid. This revised guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

In November 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting Topic 280- Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This amendment requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the new standard.

 

There are no other accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
