Division Performance
- Clinical Genomics (29% of revenues in 1Q23) delivered revenues of
$14,505 in the quarter which includes$195 of COVID/Respiratory revenue. First quarter ex-COVID revenues were suppressed due to pandemic related lock downs inChina , one of our primary markets, and to a lesser extent FX. Gross profit percentage in the quarter was 54%, which was below expectations and linked directly to the volume miss fromChina . - Sterilization and Disinfection Control (29% of revenues in 1Q23) revenues contracted by 2% in the quarter vs prior year. Segment growth was impacted by labor related delivery constraints and FX in the quarter. Gross profit percentage declined 250 bps versus prior year primarily from FX headwinds and increased labor costs.
Biopharmaceutical Development (22% of revenues in 1Q23) revenues grew by 24% in the quarter primarily due to a higher consumable and service mix from hardware placed in FY22 and a lower comparison point in 1Q22. Gross profit percentage increased by 1170 bps versus prior year primarily from both volume and product mix and strong FX tailwinds.- Calibration Solutions (20% of revenues in 1Q23) revenues declined by 6% in the quarter as we continue to battle supply chain shortages which impact our ability to deliver against bookings and are also driving longer lead time quotes that are suppressing bookings. Gross profit percentage declined by 60bps versus prior year due to decreased volumes and rising labor costs only partially offset by better product and service mix.
Executive Commentary
“After five straight quarters of double-digit organic revenues growth, our first quarter growth of 3%, (6% core growth), was disappointing. Headwinds from
“AOI excluding unusual items, our main profitability metric, was 13% of revenues in the quarter, primarily a result of disappointing topline growth and the negative effect of our high operating leverage. We also incurred higher expenses in the quarter due to renewed sales and marketing travel as well as a step up in personnel costs which were implemented at the beginning of the quarter,” added
“Turbulence in the macroeconomic environment impacting FX, material prices, labor costs, and customer activity will present a challenging operating environment throughout the year and perhaps longer. We have leveraged the

The non-GAAP measures of adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per share presented in the reconciliation above are defined to exclude the non-cash impact of amortization of intangible assets acquired in a business combination, stock-based compensation and impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets. We believe that excluding these non-cash expenses provides the ability to better understand the operations of Mesa.
We provide non-GAAP adjusted operating income, non-GAAP adjusted operating income per share amounts and non-GAAP adjusted operating income excluding unusual items in order to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance. Our management uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of our business and to compensate employees. This information facilitates management's internal comparisons to our historical operating results as well as to the operating results of our competitors. Since management finds this measure to be useful, we believe that our investors can benefit by evaluating both non-GAAP and GAAP results.
Our management recognizes that items such as amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and impairment losses on goodwill and long-lived assets can have a material impact on our operating and net income. To gain a complete picture of all effects on our profit and loss from any and all events, management does (and investors should) rely upon the GAAP consolidated statements of income. The non-GAAP numbers focus instead upon our core operating business.
Readers are reminded that non-GAAP measures are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, or superior to financial measures prepared according to GAAP. They should be evaluated in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.
