AI Summary
Q1 2019

Revenue Decline: ACETO reported first quarter net sales of $164.4 million, down 11.3% from the prior year as Human Health sales dropped sharply due to generic market pressures and failure to supply (FTS) penalties.

Widening Loss: The company posted a net loss of $21.1 million, or $0.59 per share, compared to $0.5 million net income last year, driven by falling gross profit and higher SG&A expenses.

Segment Divergence: Pharmaceutical Ingredients and Performance Chemicals segments showed year-over-year growth in sales and gross profit, while Human Health continued to struggle.

Cash Position & Liquidity: Cash and equivalents were $52.5 million, with total debt at $315.4 million; management emphasized reliance on a strategic alternatives process to generate liquidity and retire debt.

Inventory Build: Inventory rose to $156.5 million, primarily to improve supply reliability and mitigate tariff risks, causing a large cash draw.

Tariff Exposure: Tariffs on Chinese imports have had a limited impact so far, but could cost $850,000 to $3.7 million in the second half of fiscal 2019 if rates rise to 25%.

Failure to Supply Improving: FTS claims and backorders have declined sharply after operational changes, with further improvement expected.

Strategic Review Ongoing: The board continues a strategic alternatives review but offered no new details, affirming intent to use proceeds to retire debt.
