SOC Telemed Reports Second Quarter 2021 Financial and Operating Results

 

Total system-wide consults of 130,200 during the second quarter an increase of 98% year over year

Total system-wide core consults of 69,500 during the second quarter an increase of 130% year over year

Bookings of $6.7 million in the second quarter an increase of 136% year over year

Revenue of $25.0 million in the second quarter an increase of 84% year over year

Revising FY21 revenue guidance lower to reflect temporary headwinds stemming from the COVID-19 delta variant

 

RESTON, VA – August 12, 2021 – SOC Telemed, Inc., (NASDAQ: TLMD), the largest national provider of acute care telemedicine, today announced its financial and operating results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2021.

 

Our second quarter results reflect strong growth driven by a return to pre-COVID consult volumes in our telePsychiatry service line and a near return in our teleNeurology service line,” said John Kalix, Chief Executive Officer of SOC Telemed. “Our late stage pipeline grew 30% since the first quarter. Such growth illustrates the expansive cross sell opportunity facing SOC Telemed, as we drive both site expansion and service line expansion across the client base.”

 

He further stated, “The ability to provide a comprehensive offering of clinical services combined with the Telemed IQ platform positions SOC Telemed to help solve our client’s friction points around access to specialty physicians, network integrity, and optimization of clinician resources. As the largest acute telemedicine provider, we are well positioned to be the provider of choice as hospitals consolidate to a single vendor.”

 

Second Quarter and Recent Highlights

 

Announced a multi-site telePsychiatry service line expansion with UnityPoint Health for the Des Moines, Iowa, and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, markets, expected to go live in 2H21. UnityPoint Health’s multi-site expansion was driven by the success case developed at UnityPoint Health Allen Hospital, which reduced average length of stay (ALOS) by approximately 12 hours, reduced its readmission rate by 4%, and avoided more than $1.7 million in annualized boarding costs, leading to an annual ROI of 281%
  
In May, we announced an expanded partnership with SCP Health (SCP). Under the multi-year agreement, SOC Telemed will provide the Telemed IQ platform to help accelerate and expand SCP’s telehealth capabilities across the country
  
In April, Bon Secours Mercy – Lourdes Hospital implemented the teleICU service line, and Davis Regional Medical Center implemented the teleNeurology and teleStroke service lines

 

 

 

 

Operating Metrics Summary

 

Operational performance metrics for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. We present consults on a pro forma basis (i.e., giving retroactive effect to the Access Physicians acquisition to January 1, 2020) to provide investors with insight into how management views the performance of the combined business period over period.

 

Total system-wide consults were 130,214 compared to 65,690, up 98% year over year, and up 49% year over year on a pro forma basis
  
Stand-alone SOC core consults totaled 37,817 compared to 30,213, up 25% on a year over year basis. TelePsychiatry volumes recovered to pre-COVID levels faster than expected, and the teleNeurology service line experienced significant volume increases
  
Access Physicians contributed 31,700 core consults, up 47% on a year over year basis
  
System-wide revenue per core consult totaled $339 compared to $349, down 3%, primarily driven by the addition of Access Physicians, as revenue per core consult at Access Physicians is historically lower than revenue per core consult at legacy SOC. The average revenue per core consult is also impacted by duration of each consult, which varies widely between service lines
  
Stand-alone SOC revenue per core consult was $417 versus $429, as the volume recovery in telePsychiatry and teleNeurology narrowed the gap associated with minimum consult thresholds in client contracts
  
Access Physicians revenue per core consult was $245 versus $237, up 3% year over year, driven by service line volume mix
  
Implementations totaled 74 compared to 80, with Access Physicians contributing 11 implementations
  
Stand-alone SOC services per facility totaled 2.1 compared to 1.9, demonstrating the continued opportunity to expand across both service lines and sites with existing customers
  
Total facilities serviced were 1,028 compared to 847 a year ago, up 21% on a year over year basis. The 1,028 facilities serviced includes 179 facilities serviced by Access Physicians

 

Financial Results Summary

 

Financial performance for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Bookings totaled $6.7 million, up 136%
  
Revenue totaled $25.0 million compared to $13.6 million, up 84%
  
Access Physicians contributed $8.4 million of revenue
  
GAAP gross profit totaled $8.0 million compared to $4.5 million
  
Adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) totaled $9.3 million compared to $5.5 million
  
GAAP gross margin was 32% compared to 33%
  
Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) was 37% compared to 40%. Results were negatively impacted primarily by an increase in physician incentive payments related to the rapid increase and volatility of consult demand
  
Net loss totaled $(14.5) million compared to a net loss of $(8.2) million
  
Adjusted EBITDA loss totaled $(5.4) million compared to $(1.6) million

Balance Sheet

 

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $50.0 million.

 

In June 2021, SOC Telemed completed an underwritten follow-on public offering of 9.2 million shares generating net proceeds of approximately $52.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses.

 

2021 Financial Outlook

 

For the full year 2021, SOC Telemed is providing the following revised financial guidance:

 

GAAP Revenue is expected to be in the range of $90 million to $92 million, with approximately 30% expected to be attributed to Access Physicians
  
Primary drivers of the guidance revision include impacts from the Delta variant of COVID-19, specifically on increased pressure on hospital emergency departments, and a change in go-to-market strategy around hardware sales related to the integration of Access Physicians
  
The previous GAAP revenue guidance range was $97 million to $103 million, with approximately 30% to 35% expected to be attributed to Access Physicians
  
Adjusted gross margin is expected to be in the range of 37.0% and 40.0%
  
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $(22.0) million to $(25.0) million

 

These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Please refer to the Forward-Looking Statements safe harbor below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

 

SOC Telemed has not reconciled its expectations as to Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measures because certain items are out of its control or cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time without unreasonable efforts. Accordingly, a reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA is not available without unreasonable effort.

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 plus stock-based compensation. Adjusted gross margin is adjusted gross profit divided by revenues.

 

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, gain on contingent shares issuance liabilities, loss on puttable option liabilities, gain on change in fair value of contingent consideration, 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.

Operating Metrics

 

Because our consultation fee revenue generally increases as the number of visits increase, we believe the number of consultations provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and as a comparison to our past financial performance. We define core consultations as consultations utilizing our 11 core services. Telemed IQ / other consultations are defined as consultations performed by other physician networks utilizing our technology platform, Telemed IQ. Pro forma consultations represent the number of total consultations as if Access Physicians had been acquired as of January 1, 2020.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Adjustments

 

(a) Depreciation and amortization 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 telemedicine 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 of expenses for stock options and other stock-based awards. 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 on contingent share issuance liabilities consists of the change in fair value of 1,875,000 shares of our common stock held by HCMC’s sponsor and subsequently distributed to permitted transferees and were modified and became subject to forfeiture in connects with the closing of our Merger Transaction, and 350,000 private placement warrants granted to HCMC’s sponsor subsequently distributed to its permitted transferees as part of the Merger Transaction. The contingent shares issuance liabilities are revalued at their fair value every reporting period.

 

(g) 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.

 

(h) Gain on change in fair value of contingent consideration is the change in fair value of the earnout contingent consideration and the deferred payment in connection with our acquisition of Access Physicians in Q1 2021. The contingent consideration is revalued every reporting period based on the estimation of the likelihood that such contingent consideration will be earned. We eliminate these non-cash activities from our non-GAAP operating results to facilitate an understanding of our operating and financial performance from period-to-period.

 

(i) Integration, acquisition, transaction and executive severance costs represent the transaction and business integration costs related to our business combination with Healthcare Merger Corp. in Q4 2020 and our acquisition of Access Physicians in Q1 2021. These costs include 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.
