Prestige Brands Holdings—which touts a diverse product stable with brands as Dramamine motion sickness medication, Comet household cleaners and E.P.T. pregnancy tests—says second quarter revenues increased 13.7% over the prior year period to a record $206.1 million, including the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, and discal first half year revenues were $398.2 million, up 21.8% over the prior year period including the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and in line with outlook previously provided.
Reported revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were $206.1 million, an increase of 13.7% over the prior year comparable quarter’s revenues of $181.3 million. Reported revenues for the six month period ended September 30, 2015 totaled $398.2 million, an increase of 21.8% over the prior year comparable six month period’s revenues of $327.0 million. Foreign currency fluctuations negatively impacted reported revenues for both the fiscal second quarter and six month periods by $5.3 million and $8.0 million, respectively, the company said.
The results of both the fiscal second quarter and six month periods reflect continued strong consumption levels across the company’s core over-the-counter (OTC) healthcare brands, continued growth in the international business, as well as contributions from the acquisitions of Insight Pharmaceuticals (Insight) and Hydralyte.

Revenues for the household cleaning segment were $24.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, a decrease of 6.2% over the prior year comparable quarter's revenues.
