    • Consolidated operating income margin improved to 18.9% from 14.7% in the second quarter of 2015 driven by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses

Mike Kaminski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Landauer stated, "Our second quarter results reflect strong momentum on our key initiatives.  Our efforts to grow high-margin, recurring revenue opportunities are yielding positive results, as demonstrated by the continued double-digit growth in our Medical Physics segment.  In addition, our lean initiatives have contributed to the improvement in our operating margins across all our segments.  The development of our next generation dosimetry platform continues to progress on track with our expectations of beginning field testing in the second half of the year, and we are confident that our innovative design will be well positioned to meet the evolving needs of our customers."

Second Fiscal Quarter Financial Overview and Business Segment Results

Revenues were $38.1 million for both the second fiscal quarter of 2016 and the second fiscal quarter of 2015. Radiation Measurement revenues for the quarter were $25.5 million compared to $27.2 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2015. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to the divestiture of the Company's Radon business in September 2015, resulting in a $1.6 million reduction in revenues.  In addition, unfavorable foreign currency translation rates reduced revenues by $0.6 million. Domestic Radiation Measurement services revenues increased 5.0%, partially offsetting the impact of the Radon business divestiture and the foreign currency rates.  Medical Physics revenues increased $1.4 million, or 16.3%, to $10.0 million, due to increased demand for imaging services.  Excluding the divested Radon business and unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, total revenues increased 5.8% compared to the prior year period.

Operating income for the second fiscal quarter of 2016 was $7.2 million, compared to operating income of $5.6 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2015. Consolidated operating income margin improved to 18.9% from 14.7% in the second fiscal quarter of 2015.  These increased operating income results reflect improvement across all business segments and were driven by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, as well as higher gross margins.

Revenues for the first six months of fiscal 2016 were $74.6 million, a 1.5% decrease compared to $75.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2015. The Radiation Measurement segment decreased $3.5 million due to the divestiture of the Company's Radon business, resulting in a $3.2 million reduction in revenues, and an unfavorable foreign currency impact of $1.8 million. The Medical Physics segment increased $2.4 million, due to continued increased demand for imaging services.

Operating income for the first six months of fiscal 2016 was $13.5 million, a 14.4% increase compared to operating income of $11.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2015. The increase in operating income was driven by the decrease in Corporate and Radiation Measurement selling, general and administrative expenses, offset by the impact of the lower revenues in the Radiation Measurement segment.

Medical Products Divestiture

On May 3, 2016, the Company divested its Medical Products business for a total consideration of $12 million.  Additionally, through the transaction, the Company anticipates realizing approximately $20 million in tax benefits over the next several years.  The Company expects to utilize the proceeds from this divestiture to pay down debt and reinvest into continuing growth initiatives.  The Medical Products business represented $9.9 million in revenue for 2015, less than 7% of the Company's total 2015 revenue.

Use of Non GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is presented here not as an alternative to net income, but rather as a measure of the Company's operating performance and is not intended to be a presentation in accordance with GAAP. Since EBITDA (generally, net income plus interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is not calculated identically by all companies, this presentation may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA presentations disclosed by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income with adjustments for net financing costs, depreciation and amortization, provision for income taxes, stock compensation expense, goodwill and other intangible assets impairments, and acquisition, reorganization and nonrecurring costs. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating the Company's operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry because the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of certain non-cash and other items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

In addition, the Company's management used Adjusted Net Income as a measure of earnings to eliminate the effects of certain non-cash and nonrecurring items of the Company. Adjusted Net Income represents net income with tax-effected adjustments for stock compensation expense, goodwill and other intangible assets impairments and acquisition, reorganization and nonrecurring costs. However, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are not recognized measurements under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the most directly comparable measures presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included within this news release.
