Tabula Rasa HealthCare Reports First Quarter 2021 Results

MOORESTOWN, N.J., May 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Tabula Rasa HealthCare, Inc. (“TRHC”) (Nasdaq:TRHC), a leading healthcare technology company advancing the safe use of medications, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

“I am pleased with the solid start to 2021 with first quarter revenue at the high end of our guidance range. We had an eventful quarter with a number of notable developments to start the year including: 1) a faster-than-expected return to historical PACE enrollment growth rates in March, which has continued into the second quarter of 2021; 2) a flurry of governmental policy activity at the federal level such as the PACE Plus Act that could exponentially expand the size of the PACE market; and 3) a publication in a peer-reviewed journal of an important study, with several more in the pipeline, which further validates and reinforces the strong outcomes and ROI associated with our MedWise® science,” said Calvin H. Knowlton, PhD, TRHC’s Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and Founder.

First Quarter 2021 and Subsequent Event Highlights

o Our PACE census additions for our CareKinesis pharmacy services during March and April represented the two best consecutive months since the pandemic began.

o As of April 26, 2021, the current backlog of new expansion centers and new PACE organizations under contract stands at 48 with 21 projected to go live during the remainder of 2021. The majority of these new implementations include our CareKinesis pharmacy services. Once these programs are at full capacity, which is approximately three years on average, we anticipate that the annual revenue generated from these new sites could be in excess of $70 million.

o Our investment in sales and marketing is already yielding a positive impact, with strong first quarter bookings within our MedWise payer division, up 41% as compared with a year ago, and approximately one quarter of our new 2021 sales goal already achieved.

First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

All comparisons, unless otherwise noted, are to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

● Total revenue - Total revenue of $76.7 million, at the high end of our guidance range of $75 million to $77 million, increased 5% compared to $72.8 million in 2020. Total revenue included product revenue of $42.0 million, an increase of 13%, and solutions (i.e. software and services) revenue of $34.7 million, a decrease of 3%. The October 2020 acquisition of Personica contributed 6% of inorganic growth during the first quarter.

● Total revenue by segment

o CareVention HealthCare revenue increased 15% to $55.8 million, comprised of $41.8 million of PACE product revenue (up 13%) and $13.9 million of PACE solutions revenue (up 20%). Personica contributed 9% of inorganic growth to overall segment growth.

o MedWise HealthCare revenue decreased 13% to $20.9 million, primarily comprised of $10.7 million (down 25%) of medication safety services and $10.1 million (up 2%) of software subscriptions. The decline in medication safety services was in line with our expectations given our previously disclosed plan to deliver our MTM services using a more balanced approach throughout the year to better manage staffing and profitability, as well as the lack of an MTM contract renewal with a large client as discussed on our last earnings call. These two factors offset incremental revenue from contract expansions and new client launches resulting from the solid progress the sales team has made toward their sales target this year.

● GAAP net loss - Net loss was $19.5 million compared to a net loss of $14.4 million, driven by increased cost of revenue and higher non-core expenses, specifically an increase of $1.7 million in depreciation and amortization and an increase of $3.6 million in income taxes, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million in interest expense due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06. Our core expenses (i.e. cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses) increased $6.4 million, or 8%, as compared with revenue growth of 5%, or $3.9 million.

● Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $3.6 million (4.7% margin), which was above the mid-point of our guidance range of $3 million to $4 million, declined as compared to $4.8 million (6.6% margin). The decline was driven by planned lower revenue and profitability in our MedWise HealthCare segment and increased investments in corporate shared services, specifically sales and marketing, to support our growth strategy.

● Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA by segment - Excluding $11.2 million of shared services:

o CareVention HealthCare non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $12.9 million (23.2% margin) increased 10% as compared to $11.7 million (24.1% margin) a year ago.

o MedWise HealthCare non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million (8.9% margin) decreased as compared to $2.8 million (11.7% margin) a year ago, primarily due to planned lower medication safety services revenue.

A reconciliation of generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States to non-GAAP results has been provided in this press release in the accompanying tables. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting all financial information required in accordance with GAAP, TRHC is also reporting Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted Diluted EPS, each of which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance or financial position that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income or loss excluding certain other expenses, which includes interest expense, provision (benefit) for income tax, depreciation and amortization, change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration expense, acquisition-related expense, and stock-based compensation expense. TRHC defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. TRHC defines Adjusted Diluted EPS as net income or loss before fair value adjustments for acquisition-related contingent consideration, amortization of acquired intangibles, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, stock-based compensation expense, and the tax impact of those items using a normalized tax rate on pre-tax income (loss) adjusted for those items expressed on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding. TRHC considers acquisition-related expense to include non-recurring direct transaction and integration costs, severance, and the impact of purchase accounting adjustments related to the fair value of acquired deferred revenue. TRHC believes the exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the company’s underlying operations results and trends and allows for comparability with TRHC’s peer company index and industry and to be more consistent with TRHC’s expected capital structure on a going forward basis. Please note that other companies may define their non-GAAP financial measures differently than TRHC.

TRHC presents these non-GAAP financial measures in this release because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. TRHC uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of operating budgets and determination of appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. TRHC believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the company's financial and operational performance. TRHC also intends to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of the company's future earnings discussions and, therefore, their inclusion should provide consistency in the company's financial reporting.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted EPS to their most directly comparable GAAP measures provided in this release, including in the accompanying tables.

(1) For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we accounted for the convertible senior subordinated notes utilizing the if-converted method. Under this method, we are required to presume that the convertible senior subordinated notes are converted at the beginning of the current period and settled entirely in our common stock. However, no potential shares are assumed outstanding and are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation if including them would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, there was no impact on diluted EPS from the convertible senior subordinated notes as the conversion would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we accounted for the convertible senior subordinated notes utilizing the treasury stock method. Under this method, we presumed that we would settle the notes entirely or partly in cash. The underlying shares issuable upon conversion of the notes were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS, except to the extent that the average stock price for the reporting period exceeded their conversion price of $69.95 per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, there was no impact on diluted EPS from the convertible senior subordinated notes as the conversion price exceeded our average stock price.
