MEDecision Reports Second Quarter 2008 Financial Results
WAYNE, Pa., Jul 24, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — MEDecision, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDE), a leading provider of collaborative health care management solutions, today reported total revenues of $14.2 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $9.7 million for the same period last year, and a net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2008, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, for the same period last year.
Significant items during the second quarter included:
· Total revenue was $14.2 million for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2007 and included revenue from new contracts executed with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida and DC Chartered Health Plan;
· Gross margins were 62.6% in the second quarter of 2008, an increase from the 54.0% gross margin reported in the second quarter of 2007, reflecting primarily improvements in gross margin for term licenses; and
· Total operating expense as a percent of revenue declined to 64.1% in the second quarter of 2008 from 80.0% in the second quarter of 2007, a decrease primarily attributable to declines in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by other expenses totaling $1.5 million relating to the pending merger with Health Care Service Corporation (HCSC).
“The highlights of our second quarter were the two new contracts that we signed during the quarter and the announcement of the pending merger with HCSC,” said David St.Clair, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MEDecision. “The first agreement is with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida for our Alineo collaborative health care management platform, marking our twenty-fourth Blue Cross Blue Shield plan and affiliate and adding 3.8 million more covered lives to our book of business. The second agreement was with DC Chartered Health Plan a Medicaid provider with approximately 75,000 members. MEDecision will also host the solution as an Application Service Provider (ASP). We also announced the transaction with HCSC, which is proceeding as planned. We have scheduled the special shareholder meeting to vote on the transaction for August 14, 2008.”
Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 was $14.2 million, a 45.9% increase compared to $9.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The revenue by category for quarter ended June 30, 2008 was as follows: Subscription, maintenance and transactions fees of $8.2 million; term license revenue of $2.6 million and professional services revenue of $3.4 million.
Gross margin for the second quarter of 2008 was $8.9 million with gross margin as a percentage of revenue of 62.6%, compared to gross margin of $5.3 million with gross margin as a percentage of revenue of 54.0% in the second quarter of 2007.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2008 were $9.1 million including $1.5 million in other expenses relating to the pending transaction with HCSC, resulting in a loss from operations of $0.2 million. This compares to $7.8 million in total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2007, resulting in a loss from operations of $2.5 million in that period.
For the three months ended June 30, 2008, the company reported a net loss to common shareholders of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share based on weighted average shares outstanding of 16.3 million shares. Net loss available to common shareholders for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 was $2.5 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share based on 15.3 million weighted average shares outstanding.
