Covance Reports Fourth Quarter Revenue of $532M, GAAP EPS of $0.35, Pro Forma EPS of $0.73, and Adjusted Net Orders of $759M
Date:1/25/2012

ervices.  Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2011 grew 10.0% year-on-year to $298.0 million, primarily driven by the continued strong performance in clinical development and a 190 basis point tailwind in foreign exchange.  On a sequential basis, revenues declined $5.0 million due to a $10.1 million foreign exchange headwind, which more than offset growth across the segment's service offerings, at constant exchange rates.

GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter was $58.2 million and included $1.3 million in costs associated with our restructuring actions. Pro forma operating income, excluding these costs, was $59.5 million, compared to $58.4 million last quarter and $54.7 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year. Pro forma operating margins, excluding these costs, were 20.0% for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to 19.3% last quarter and 20.2% in the fourth quarter of last year. The sequential increase in profitability was primarily due to stronger central laboratory performance.

Corporate InformationThe Company's backlog at December 31, 2011 was $6.14 billion compared to $6.08 billion at September 30, 2011 and $6.19 billion at December 31, 2010. Foreign exchange negatively impacted sequential backlog growth by $75 million.  

Corporate expenses totaled $37.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 (including $2.7 million in restructuring costs) compared to $38.4 million last quarter (including $1.4 million in restructuring costs) and $39.9 million in the fourth quarter of last year.

During the fourth quarter, the company recorded a $12.1 million charge to recognize an impairment in the carrying value of an equity investment in a supplier of research products.  This charge is reflected as a component of other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of income.

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011 were $389 million compared to $400 million at September 30, 2011 and $377 million
