ATLANTA, Feb. 17, 2015

ATLANTA, Feb. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Financial and Recent Highlights:
-- Product revenues grew 12 percent for the quarter and 7 percent for the
full year

-- BioGlue(R) revenues grew 11 percent for the quarter and 7 percent for the
full year

-- HeRO(R) revenues grew 10 percent for the quarter and 24 percent for the
full year

the full year

-- Tissue processing revenues decreased 4 percent for the quarter and 3
percent for the full year

-- On track to begin enrollment in PerClot IDE clinical trial in the first
quarter of 2015

CryoLife, Inc. (NYSE: CRY), a leading medical device and tissue processing company focused on cardiac and vascular surgery, announced today its results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2014. Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 increased 5 percent to $37.2 million compared to $35.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. Revenues for the full year of 2014 increased 3 percent to $144.6 million compared to $140.8 million for the full year of 2013.

Pat Mackin, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "CryoLife had a solid fourth quarter, with double-digit revenue growth for our key medical device products, partially offset by a decline in tissue processing revenues. During the quarter we launched ProCol, followed by the launch of PhotoFix in January, adding two new key products that further leverage our sales force and strong customer relationships. We also made good progress with our pipeline initiatives and remain positioned to begin enrollment in the PerClot IDE clinical trial during the first quarter of 2015. Outside of the U.S., we remain on track with our regulatory efforts to expand the indication for BioGlue in Japan later in 2015. Altogether, this puts us in a good position in the long-term to significantly expand our higher margin medical device revenues, which continue to represent a larger mix of our overall business."

Mr. Mackin continued, "In 2015 we are investing in several strategic initiatives to enhance the long-term growth and margin expansion potential of our business. This includes the PerClot IDE trial, enhanced quality and regulatory controls for our tissue processing business, and plans to transition to a direct sales organization in one of our European territories. We also have ongoing litigation regarding PerClot that we believe is important to protect our investments in the IDE trial and future market opportunities. While these initiatives will impact our revenue growth and profitability in 2015, we believe they strongly position the Company for improved performance beginning in 2016."

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $1.8 million, or $0.06 per basic and per fully diluted common share, compared to net income of $9.0 million, or $0.33 per basic and $0.31 per fully diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2013.

The increase in cardiac laser therapy revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 was primarily due to an increase in handpiece shipments, partially offset by a decrease in laser console shipments, while the decrease in the full year of 2014 was primarily due to a decrease in laser console and handpiece shipments.

8:06AM CryoLife to acquire Hemosphere for $17 mln in cash, plus potential revenue milestone-based payments of up to $4.5 mln (CRY) 4.92 : Co announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Hemosphere, Inc., a privately-held medical device company that has developed and markets the HeRO (Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow) Graft. The HeRO Graft is a proprietary graft-based solution for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) hemodialysis patients with limited access options and central venous obstruction. Under terms of the agreement, CryoLife will acquire Hemosphere for $17.0 mln in cash, plus potential revenue milestone-based payments of up to $4.5 mln. CryoLife intends to use cash on hand to finance the transaction, which is expected to close in May. Hemosphere's revenues were $5.3 mln and gross margins were 65.6 percent for the full year 2011. Assuming the transaction closes in May as anticipated, the Company expects revenues of between $2.5 mln and $3.5 mln for the Hemosphere product line in 2012. The Company expects to incur between $0.09 and $0.10 per share in charges in 2012 related to the acquisition of Hemosphere, which includes non-recurring transaction and integration charges of between $0.06 and $0.08 per share, with between $0.04 and $0.05 per share of those estimated transaction and integration charges to occur during the second quarter. The Company anticipates that the transaction will be slightly dilutive to earnings to break even for 2013. The above per share charges assume a 35 percent income tax rate. However, due to the non-deductibility of certain transaction expenses, the Company expects its income tax rate in the second quarter of 2012 to be higher than 35 percen
