Business Outlook for Full Year 2008
In May 2008, Mindray completed its acquisition of the patient monitoring business of Datascope Corporation (Nasdaq: DSCP) for approximately $209 million in cash (the the "transaction"). Upon completion of this transaction, Mindray became the third-largest player in the global patient monitoring device industry furthering Mindray's goal of becoming a leading provider of high-quality medical devices to markets worldwide. After closing of the transaction, the Company maintains its full-year 2008 net revenue guidance to be in the range of US$560 million to US$580 million, including the consolidation of Datascope's patient monitoring business starting from May 1, 2008.
The updated full-year 2008 non-GAAP (excluding share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions) net income guidance will be in the range of US$132 million to US$135 million, taking into consideration a 15% effective income tax rate after certain government tax incentives and rebates.
Non-GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of US$1.16 to US$1.18 per fully diluted share based on an estimated average diluted share count of 114 million for the year. The Company expects DPM acquisition to yield a neutral impact to its 2008 non-GAAP EPS.
In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company estimates total
share-based compensation expenses in 2008 will be approximately US$10
million based on employee share options that have been granted as of June
30, 2008. The Company expects approximately US$16.1 million in
acquisition
