DoctorDirectory Acquisition
On November 10th, 2014, Everyday Health signed a definitive agreement to acquire DoctorDirectory for a total purchase price of $65 million in cash. Based in North Carolina, DoctorDirectory provides pharmaceutical companies with multi-channel marketing services that target healthcare professionals. The transaction is expected to close on November 12th, 2014.
The acquisition of DoctorDirectory will significantly expand Everyday Health’s reach among healthcare professionals, and enable the combined entity to offer an expanded suite of content and tools to this large audience. In addition, DoctorDirectory’s expertise in utilizing data and analytics for pharmaceutical marketing programs that generate prescription lift is expected to expand Everyday Health’s customer set and strengthen the Company’s ability to offer innovative marketing solutions that achieve optimal results.
In connection with the DoctorDirectory acquisition, Everyday Health expanded its existing credit facility from $75 million to $115 million – consisting of $60 million in term debt and $55 million available under a revolver.
“We are very pleased with our financial results in the third quarter,” said Brian Cooper, CFO of Everyday Health. “Our professional business grew over 35% in the first nine months of this year, and our continued investment in this large market opportunity – highlighted by our strategic acquisition of DoctorDirectory – should enable us to further increase our share of marketing dollars targeting healthcare professionals.”

All information in this release is as of November 11, 2014. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement made herein for any reason to conform the statement to actual results or changes in our expectations.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial measures presented in the Company’s press release and related conference call or webcast in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we also present the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance: Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”).
A “non-GAAP financial measure” refers to a numerical measure of the Company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company’s financial statements. The Company provides certain non-GAAP measures as additional information relating to its operating results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information presented here should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of the Company’s liquidity. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare the Company’s performance to that of other companies.
The Company has presented Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss plus: interest expense, net; income tax expense; depreciation and amortization expense; stock-based compensation expense; compensation expense related to acquisition earnout arrangements; write-offs of unamortized deferred financing and other debt extinguishment costs; reduction in force severance charges; loss from discontinued operations; and certain other non-cash charges such as preferred stock warrant mark-to-market adjustments. We define non-GAAP net income (loss) as net loss, plus non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash deemed dividend on the Series G IPO ratchet, compensation expense related to acquisition earnout arrangements, loss from discontinued operations, and other unusual or significant adjustments such as the write-off of deferred finance costs and other debt extinguishment costs and the preferred stock mark-to-market adjustment. We define non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by weighted-average shares outstanding, which reflects the issuance of the shares sold in the IPO, as well as the conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock into common stock in connection with the Company’s IPO, which closed on April 2, 2014.
The Company believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplement to GAAP measures, is useful to investors in that they eliminate items that are either not part of the Company’s core operations or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate underlying trends in the Company’s business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results, and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company’s operating performance.
