Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2007 Sales Performance by Business

Below are highlights of fourth-quarter and full-year 2007 results by business. Growth rates reflect comparisons to the same period in 2006 and include foreign currency impacts. Pro forma growth rates reflect comparisons that include IntraLase and WaveFront Sciences performance as if these acquisitions had occurred in all periods presented.

Intraocular lens (IOL) sales rose 7.6% to $85.7 million in the quarter and 8.8% to $317.2 million for 2007, reflecting continuing demand for the company’s Tecnis® monofocal IOLs and its portfolio of refractive IOLs.

 

 

 

Viscoelastics sales rose 9.7% to $33.6 million in the quarter and 0.3% to $123.4 million for 2007. Growth was driven primarily by increased sales of the Healon® family of viscoleastics.

 

 

 

Phacoemulsification sales rose 10.7% to $26.4 million in the quarter and 3.6% to $90.7 million for 2007. The rise reflected the mid-year launch of the WhiteStar SignatureTM system and increased surgeon usage of the company’s existing phacoemulsification installed base.

Laser Vision Correction (LVC) sales rose 96.8% to $101.7 million in the quarter and 69.6% to $367.8 million for 2007. Pro forma LVC sales rose 10.6% and 13.8% for the quarter and year, respectively.

 

   

Fourth-quarter procedures and related sales of $56.9 million represented a 65.8% increase, or 11.5% on a pro forma basis. For 2007, procedures and related sales of $229.1 million represented a 58.7% increase, or 24.0% on a pro forma basis.

Fourth-quarter unit placements of the VISX® Star S4 IR® excimer laser declined 17%, reflecting a difficult comparison in the year-ago quarter when a significant U.S. corporate provider adopted the company’s excimer technology. For 2007, excimer laser placements rose 13.5%. IntraLase® FS laser placements rose 58.9% for the quarter and 31.4% for 2007, on a pro forma basis.
