EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY

“At Zoetis, we are committed to delivering high-quality medicines and vaccines to the veterinarians and livestock producers we serve around the world, and building on our premier commercial, R&D and manufacturing capabilities to maintain our market leadership,” said Juan Ramón Alaix, chief executive officer of Zoetis. “As a newly formed standalone company, we are singularly focused on the animal health industry to improve our ability to serve those who raise and care for animals.”

“During the first quarter, we reported operational sales growth across all of our regions, reflecting global demand for our diverse portfolio of livestock and companion animal health products,” said Alaix. “We also increased our earnings at a faster rate than sales, as we continue to grow Zoetis profitably through appropriate allocation of resources and the pursuit of our growth strategies. Our diverse portfolio, strength in R&D, and direct presence in global markets continue to provide a solid foundation for our business performance.”

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

Zoetis organizes and manages its business across four regional operating segments: the United States (U.S.); Europe/Africa/Middle East (EuAfME); Canada/Latin America (CLAR); and Asia/Pacific (APAC). Within each of these regional segments, the company offers a diverse portfolio of products for livestock and companion animals tailored to local trends and customer needs.

In the first quarter of 2013:

  • Revenues in the U.S. were $454 million, an increase of 7% over the first quarter of 2012. Results were driven by strong growth in sales of companion animal products in the region. While sales of livestock products increased, they were tempered by the continuing drought in North America and its impact on livestock producers, particularly cattle.
  • Revenues in EuAfME were $290 million, an increase of 4% operationally over the first quarter of 2012. Growth drivers included sales of companion animal products, and increased sales of livestock products, especially in swine and poultry across the European Union.
  • Revenues in CLAR were $171 million, an increase of 4% operationally over the first quarter of 2012. Sales of livestock products for swine, cattle and poultry contributed to the region's growth, especially in Brazil and Canada; meanwhile, sales of companion animal products decreased in the region.
  • Revenues in APAC were $175 million, an increase of 2% operationally over the first quarter of 2012. Results were driven by the sales of livestock products, especially swine, with growth in Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia, while sales of companion animal products increased.

Zoetis continues to drive demand and strengthen its diverse portfolio of products through brand lifecycle management, strong customer relationships and access to new markets and technologies. With an expansive and diverse product portfolio, the company focuses on improving the performance and delivery of current product lines; expanding product indications across species; and pursuing approvals across new geographies. Some recent highlights include:

  • In Japan, for example, the company recently achieved registration of Fostera™ PCV and also launched Draxxin® for swine. Fostera PCV is a vaccine, preventing Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) viremia with the convenience of a single dose; it helps limit the very costly consequences of disease that could compromise herd health and performance. The company's PCV vaccine was first approved in the U.S. in 2006, under the Suvaxyn® brand, and is currently commercialized in 23 countries worldwide. Draxxin is an injectable antibiotic for livestock that delivers a full course of therapy in one dose to fight respiratory disease and other susceptible bacterial infections in cattle and swine. Draxxin was first approved in Europe in 2003 and is now one of Zoetis' top-selling products, marketed in 69 countries around the world.
  • The company launched Convenia®, an antibiotic for companion animals, in China this March. Convenia is the first anti-infective for common bacterial skin infections in dogs and cats that provides an entire course of therapy in one injection without the difficulty of administering daily pills. It was first approved in the European Union in 2006 and now marketed in 50 countries; it has become one of the company's premier companion animal products.
  • Zoetis also signed an agreement with a large dairy cattle partner in Argentina to perform genomic tests on their herds, using Clarifide®, a novel technological tool that is being tailored to meet the farming needs of this customer in Argentina. Through the use of these tests, Zoetis helps producers make informed decisions, manage their livestock more effectively, and increase the yields from their herds.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE AND COMMENTARY

“Our guidance for full-year 2013 is provided at current exchange rates and reflects our confidence in the diversity of our portfolio, the strength of our business model, and our view of the evolving market conditions for animal health products this year,” said Rick Passov, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Zoetis. “While we believe the fundamentals of the animal health industry remain strong, the key factors that could impact future results continue to be the evolving macroeconomic conditions, weather-related challenges and potential disease outbreaks. We rely on our global scale, local presence and innovations to enable us to best adapt to changes in our operating environment.”

Zoetis provided its financial guidance for full-year 2013, including revenues of between $4.425 billion to $4.525 billion. The company also expects to achieve diluted EPS for the full year of between $1.00 to $1.06 per share, which includes the impact of nonrecurring costs of $200 million to $240 million, primarily associated with becoming a standalone public company. Adjusted diluted EPS1 for the full year is expected to be between $1.36 to $1.42 per share, excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. The 2013 financial guidance reflects exchange rates as of mid-April 2013. Additional guidance on other items such as tax rate and expenses are included in the financial tables and will be discussed on the company's conference call.

WEBCAST & CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS

Zoetis will host a webcast and conference call at 8:30 a.m. (EDT) today, during which company executives will review first-quarter financial results, discuss 2013 financial guidance, and respond to questions from financial analysts. Investors and the public may access the live webcast by visiting the Zoetis website at http://www.zoetis.com/events-and-presentations. A replay of the webcast will be archived and made available on April 30.

  Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

Full-year 2013 guidance assumes a blend of the actual exchange rates in effect during the first quarter of 2013 and a mid-April exchange rate for the remainder of the year.

A reconciliation of 2013 adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS guidance to 2013 reported net income attributable to Zoetis and reported diluted EPS attributable to Zoetis common shareholders guidance follows:

 
Full-Year 2013 Guidance
(millions of dollars, except per share amounts) Net Income   Diluted EPS
Adjusted net income/diluted EPS(a) guidance ~$680 - $710 ~$1.36 - $1.42
Purchase accounting adjustments (35) (0.07)
Certain significant items(b) and acquisition-related costs (130 - 160) (0.26 - 0.32)
Reported net income attributable to Zoetis/diluted EPS guidance ~$500 - $530 ~$1.00 - $1.06
 

(a)

  Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are defined as reported U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net income and its components and reported diluted EPS excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. Adjusted cost of sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, adjusted research and development (R&D) expenses, adjusted interest expense and adjusted other(income)/deductions are income statement line items prepared on the same basis, and, therefore, components of the overall adjusted income measure. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS.
