Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA ("the
Company”), the world’s
largest provider of Dialysis Products and Services, today announced its
results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2007.
Fourth Quarter 2007: Revenue Net revenue for the fourth quarter 2007 increased by 9% to
$2,569 million (6% at constant currency) compared to the fourth quarter
2006. Organic revenue growth worldwide was 4%. Dialysis Services revenue
grew by 6% to $1,856 million (4% at constant currency) in the fourth
quarter of 2007. Dialysis Product revenue increased by 18% to
$713 million (10% at constant currency) in the same period.
North America revenue increased by 3% to $1,706 million. Dialysis
Services revenue grew by 1% to $1,526 million. Excluding effects of the
divestiture of the perfusion business, Dialysis Service revenue
increased by 3%. Average revenue per treatment for the U.S. clinics
decreased by 1% to $325 in the fourth quarter 2007 compared to $328 for
the same quarter in 2006. At the same time, due to extremely good cost
containment, the comparable costs per treatment decreased by 2% to $266
per treatment also contributing to a further margin expansion of 70
basis points in North America. Dialysis Product revenue increased by 17%
to $180 million again well above market led by strong sales of our 2008K
hemodialysis machines, peritoneal dialysis products and the phosphate
binding drug PhosLo.
International revenue was $863 million, an increase of 24% (12%
at constant currency) compared to the fourth quarter of 2006. Organic
revenue growth of the international segment was 7%. Dialysis Services
revenue reached $331 million, an increase of 35% (22% at constant
currency). Dialysis Product revenue rose by 18% to $533 million (7% at
constant currency), led by strong peritoneal dialysis products and
dialyzers.
Earnings Operating income (EBIT) increased by 21% to $428 million compared
to $354 million in the fourth quarter 2006. Operating income for the
fourth quarter 2006 includes costs of $25 million related to
restructuring costs and in-process R&D. Excluding these effects,
operating income for the fourth quarter 2007 increased by 13%. The
operating margin improved from 16.1% in the fourth quarter 2006
excluding the one-time costs to 16.6% in 2007.

In North America, the operating margin increased from 17.1% (excluding
the effects of one-time items) by 70 basis points to 17.8% due to the
new PhosLo business, higher product sales and decreased operating costs
per treatment. In the International segment, the operating margin also
increased by 70 basis points to 18.4% mainly due to higher growth in the
emerging markets and increased efficiencies.
Net interest expense for the fourth quarter 2007 was $90 million
compared to $96 million in the same quarter of 2006. This positive
development was mainly attributable to lower average interest rates and
a lower debt level.
Income tax expense was $135 million for the fourth quarter of
2007 compared to $99 million in the fourth quarter of 2006, reflecting
effective tax rates of 39.8% and 38.5%, respectively.
Net income for the fourth quarter 2007 was $197 million, an
increase of 30%. Net income increased by 16% when compared to the fourth
quarter 2006 excluding the effects of one-time items in 2006.

Earnings per share (EPS) for the fourth
quarter of 2007 rose by 29% to $0.67 per ordinary share compared to
$0.52 for the fourth quarter of 2006. The weighted average number of
shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2007 was approximately
296.3 million shares compared to 295.0 million shares for the fourth
quarter of 2006. The increase in shares outstanding resulted from stock
option exercises in 2007.
Cash Flow
In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company generated $309 million in cash
from operations, representing approximately 12% of revenue, clearly
ahead of our target. The extremely strong cash flow generation was
primarily supported by higher earnings and a stable working capital.
A total of $184 million was spent for capital expenditures, net
of disposals. Free Cash Flow before acquisitions was $125 million
compared to $266 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 on a reported
basis. A total of $118 million in cash was used for acquisitions.
Full Year 2007: The operations of Renal Care Group (RCG) are included in the Company’s
consolidated statements of income and cash flows from April 1, 2006,
therefore, the current results for the full year 2007 are not directly
comparable with the results of the full year 2006. Revenue and Earnings Net revenue for 2007 was $9,720 million, up 14% from 2006. At
constant currency, net revenue rose by 12%. Organic growth was 6% in
2007.
Operating income (EBIT) increased by 20% to $1,580 million
compared to $1,318 million in 2006. Operating income for the full year
2006 includes cost of $37 million as a result of restructuring, the
transformation of the Company’s legal form and
in-process R&D, and a gain from the clinic divestitures of $40 million.
Excluding these items, operating income for 2007 increased also by 20%.
This performance resulted in an operating margin of 16.3% compared to
15.5% for the year 2006.

Net interest expense for the full year 2007 was $371 million
compared to $351 million in 2006. The increase was mainly the result of
additional interest expense partially offset by the write-off in 2006 of
deferred financing costs related to the 2003 senior credit facility of
$15 million, both in conjunction with the financing of the RCG
acquisition.
Income tax expense was $466 million for the full year compared to
$413 million in 2006, reflecting tax rates of 38.5% and
42.8%, respectively. The tax rate for 2006 was impacted by tax payments
in the U.S mainly related to the gain on the divestiture of dialysis
clinics in the U.S. Excluding this impact, the effective tax rate for
2006 was at 39.8%.
For the full year 2007, net income was $717 million, up 34% from
2006. Net income for 2007 increased by 25% compared to 2006 excluding
the effects of one-time items in 2006.

was approximately 295.7 million.
Cash Flow Cash from operations during the full year 2007 was $1,200 million
compared to $908 million for 2006 on a reported basis. Excluding the
effects of one-time items, cash from operations was $1,106 million for
2006. The increase compared to prior year was mainly due to increased
earnings.
A total of $549 million was used for capital expenditures,
net of disposals. Free Cash Flow before acquisitions for 2007 was
$651 million compared to $458 million in 2006. The underlying Free Cash
Flow before acquisitions and the effects of one-time items for 2006 was
$656 million. A total of $228 million in cash was used for acquisitions,
net of divestitures. Free Cash Flow after acquisitions for the
full year 2007 was $423 million.
