Viemed Healthcare Announces First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Viemed Healthcare, Inc. (the "Company" or "Viemed") (NASDAQ:VMD and TSX: VMD.TO), a home medical equipment supplier and the nation's largest independent provider of ventilation that provides post-acute respiratory care services, announced today that it has reported its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Operational highlights (all dollar amounts are USD):

  • Net revenues attributable to the Company's core business for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were $30.2 million, a new Company record, and an increase of $4.7 million or 18% over the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Total net revenues for the current quarter were $32.3 million, which included approximately $2.1 million for contact and vaccine tracing services related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Net income before taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 totaled approximately $2.5 million, compared to $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 totaled approximately $7.3 million, a 33% increase as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2021. A reconciliation of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found in the tables accompanying this press release.
  • The Company had a cash balance of $29.2 million at March 31, 2022 ($28.4 million at December 31, 2021) and an overall working capital balance of $30.1 million ($29.5 million at December 31, 2021). Total long-term debt as of March 31, 2022 was $4.5 million ($4.6 million at December 31, 2021).
  • The Company repurchased and cancelled 389,878 shares under the share repurchase program during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and has continued its repurchase program during the current quarter.
  • The Company expects to generate net revenues attributable to its core business of approximately $32.1 million to $32.8 million during the second quarter of 2022. While the Company's COVID-19 response related business has slowed during the current year, the Company is continuing to pursue additional sales and support revenues and estimates second quarter 2022 revenues of approximately $0.2 million to $0.3 million related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Total revenues for the second quarter of 2022 are estimated to be approximately $32.3 million to $33.1 million.

"The record setting quarter in our core business is a reflection of the momentum we are beginning to see in a post pandemic environment," said Casey Hoyt, Viemed's CEO. "Our investments in people, technology, and inventory during the pandemic have positioned us extremely well to actively engage with patients, providers, and payors as pandemic restrictions abate. We are invigorated by the increasing opportunities for face-to-face interaction with the people we serve in the coming months."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release refers to "Adjusted EBITDA" which is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP. The Company's presentation of this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, and stock-based compensation. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides helpful information with respect to the Company's operating performance as viewed by management, including a view of the Company's business that is not dependent on the impact of the Company's capitalization structure and items that are not part of the Company's day-to-day operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) to compare the Company's operating performance on a consistent basis, (ii) to calculate incentive compensation for the Company's employees, (iii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company's internal annual operating budget, and (iv) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the Company's operational strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating the Company's operating performance in the same manner as management. The following table is a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, on a historical basis for the periods indicated:

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. It is not a measurement of the Company's financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue or net income, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters the Company considers not to be indicative of ongoing operations; and other companies in the Company's industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
