SOC Telemed Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results

Record bookings of $2.6 million, a 54% increase year over year Reaffirms 2020 Outlook

November 16, 2020 4:30 PM EST

RESTON, Va., Nov. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SOC Telemed, Inc. (Nasdaq: TLMD), the largest national provider of acute care telemedicine, today announced its pre-acquisition results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

"I'm pleased to report that we delivered strong third-quarter results, achieved record levels of bookings, added several new customers, and expanded our relationships with existing customers. During the quarter, we also completed our business combination and have since begun trading on the Nasdaq," said John Kalix, CEO of SOC Telemed. 

Mr. Kalix continued, "We have seen utilization levels rebound from the early days of the pandemic and remain optimistic about our full-year revenue outlook. We are a leader in the acute telemedicine market and our 2020 guidance reflects that we expect to continue to build on our momentum from the third quarter to finish out the year strong."

Mr. Hai Tran, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of SOC Telemed commented, "Utilization has rebounded from the lows we experienced in the early days of the pandemic and despite the recent increases in COVID-19 cases, utilization of our core services remains stable as Hospitals adapt to operating in a post pandemic environment."

Third Quarter HighlightsFinancial performance for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019.

  • Bookings of $2.6 million compared to $1.7 million, a 54% increase primarily driven by the increased interest in telemedicine and overall momentum in the business.
  • Revenue was $15.1 million compared to $17.1 million, an 11% decrease due to lower utilization resulting from a decrease in hospital visits due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • GAAP gross profit was $5.6 million compared to $7.2 million and adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) was $6.6 million compared to $8.0 million.
  • GAAP gross margin was 37.0% compared to 42.2% and adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) as 44% compared to 47%. Despite the COVID-19 impact to revenue, the Company was able to partially offset margin pressure by leveraging costs.
  • Net loss of $(9.7) million compared to a loss of $(3.3) million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $(2.9) million compared to positive $0.5 million as SOC continues to increase its investments in its go-to-market functions and preparations to become a public company.
  • On a pro forma basis, total cash was $47.4 million as of September 30, 2020.

Year-to-Date HighlightsPerformance for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Core consults are defined as consultations utilizing core services, including teleNeurology, telePsychiatry and teleICU solutions.

  • Bookings of $8.3 million compared to $4.1 million, a 103% increase.
  • Core revenue per core consult of $424 compared to $399, a 6% increase.
  • Core consults of 98,686 compared to 121,894, a 19% decrease.

2020 Outlook For the full year 2020, the Company continues to expect:

  • Bookings in the range of $11.5 to $12.5 million
  • Revenue of approximately $57.3 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA of approximately ($11.1) million

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of terms such as "expect," "will," "continue," or similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: the statements under "2020 Outlook," including expectations relating to bookings and revenue; statements regarding relationships with customers and business momentum; and any other statements of expectation or belief. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from results expressed or implied in this press release.  Such risk factors include, but are not limited to, those related to: the current and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on SOC Telemed's business and industry; the effects of competition on the future business of SOC Telemed; uncertainty regarding the demand for and market utilization of its solution; returns on investments in its business; the ability to maintain customer relationships; difficulties maintaining and expanding its network of qualified physicians and other provider specialists; disruptions in SOC Telemed's relationships with affiliated professional entities or third party suppliers or service providers; general business and economic conditions; the ability of SOC Telemed to successfully execute strategic plans; the timing and market acceptance of new solutions or success of new enhancements, features modifications to existing solutions and the degree to which they gain acceptance.

SOC Telemed assumes no obligation, and does not intend, to update these forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

We believe that, in addition to our financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP), adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP), and adjusted EBITDA, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures, are useful in evaluating our business, results of operations, and financial condition.  However, our use of the terms adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA may vary from that of others in our industry. Adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit, net loss, net loss per share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of performance. Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense on our debt;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any expenditures for such replacements; and
  • other companies in our industry may calculate these financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures along with other comparative tools, together with GAAP measurements, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. Such GAAP measurements include gross profit, net loss, net loss per share and other performance measures. In evaluating these financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. When evaluating our performance, you should consider these non-GAAP financial measures alongside other financial performance measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measures set forth in the reconciliation tables below and our other GAAP results.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are described as follows:

Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin. Adjusted gross profit is defined as revenues less cost of revenues plus depreciation and amortization plus equipment leasing costs. Adjusted gross margin is adjusted gross profit divided by revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, stock-based compensation, gain or loss on puttable options, depreciation and amortization and integration, acquisition, transaction and executive severance costs.

Readers are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to this earnings release and which can be found on SOC Telemed's investor relations page of its website at: investors.soctelemed.com.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Adjustments

(a) 

Amortization and depreciation consists primarily of depreciation of fixed assets, amortization of capitalized software development costs and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as customer relationships, non-compete agreements, and trade names acquired in connection with business combinations. While depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized will often have to be replaced or updated in the future, and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for these replacements or updates. Additionally, we incur amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets based on the portion of the purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the estimated useful lives of such assets. However, the purchase price allocated to these assets is not necessarily reflective of the cost we would incur to internally develop the intangible asset and we do not believe these charges are reflective of our operating results in the period incurred. We eliminate these non-cash charges from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.

(b) 

Equipment leasing costs consist of the cost of procuring equipment through lease financing. We ceased this practice in the second quarter of 2017. We eliminate these charges from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.

(c) 

Interest expense consists primarily of interest incurred on our outstanding indebtedness and non-cash interest related to the amortization of debt discount and issuance costs associated with our term loan agreement. We eliminate these cash and non-cash expenses from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period within our presentation of adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items, such as interest benefit and expense, income tax benefit and expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and other charges and income. We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

(d) 

We incur income tax expenses or benefits that are related to prior periods. We eliminate these expenses from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period within our presentation of adjusted EBITDA.

(e) 

Stock-based compensation expense consists primarily of expenses for stock options. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we continue to evaluate our operating and financial performance excluding stock-based compensation expenses. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods. We evaluate our performance both with and without these measures because stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense and can vary significantly over time based on the timing, size, nature and design of the awards granted, and is influenced in part by certain factors that are generally beyond our control, such as the volatility of the market value of our common stock. In addition, we eliminate stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.

(f) 

Gain (loss) on puttable option liabilities consists of changes in the fair value of puttable option liabilities. We eliminate these non-cash expenses from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.

(g)

Changes in fair value of contingent consideration consists of the change in fair value of contingent consideration associated with a business combination in August 2018.

(h) 

Integration, acquisition, transaction and executive severance costs represent the transaction and business integration costs related to our recent business combination with Healthcare Merger Corp., including incremental expenses incurred to affect business combinations such as advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees, as well as other related incremental executive severance costs. We exclude these costs from our non-GAAP results as they have no direct correlation to the operation of our business, and because we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures excluding these costs provide useful information about our spending trends to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.
