MALVERN, Pa., July 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioTelemetry, Inc. (NASDAQ:BEAT), the leading remote medical technology company focused on the delivery of health information to improve quality of life and reduce cost of care, today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Company HighlightsRecognized quarterly total revenue of $99.1 millionTotal revenue declined 11.4% year-over-year due to the impact of COVID-19 across most of our businessesReported quarterly GAAP net income of $2.3 million, or 2.3% of total revenueRealized quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $25.6 million, or 25.8% of total revenueAcquired Remote Patient Monitoring (“RPM”) assets from a subsidiary of Centene CorporationEntered into Sales Agent Agreement with Boston ScientificAssumed responsibility to service Roche’s remote INR patient basePresident and CEO CommentaryJoseph H. Capper, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioTelemetry, Inc., commented:“Due to the unwavering commitment of the entire BioTelemetry team, we continued to successfully navigate the current external challenges. As such, our business recovered faster than anticipated during the quarter, finishing strong with total revenue of $99.1 million and adjusted EBITDA of $25.6 million. Cardiac monitoring volumes bounced off their April lows, quickly returning to more normalized levels by quarter end. Given the encouraging trends coming out of the quarter, we believe we will soon be back to delivering year-over-year revenue and earnings growth.“As I shared previously, in early April we streamlined our cost structure to manage through the downturn. As the business improved, we were able to call back all furloughed employees and are now operating at pre-pandemic headcount levels. We have pivoted back into an offensive posture as evidenced by the advancement of several business initiatives. The acquisition of Centene’s RPM assets is a key step toward increasing our commercial activity in the rapidly growing population health management market. The Boston Scientific and Roche agreements are designed to extend the capabilities of our market-leading cardiac monitoring franchise.“We are more confident than ever that the post COVID-19 healthcare environment will demand a host of telehealth and remote monitoring solutions. As one of the largest, fastest growing and most profitable connected health companies, we are perfectly positioned to capitalize on this opportunity.”Second Quarter Financial ResultsTotal revenue for the second quarter 2020 was $99.1 million compared to $111.8 million for the second quarter 2019, a decrease of $12.7 million, or 11.4%.Gross profit for the second quarter 2020 was $61.5 million, or 62.1% of total revenue, compared to $70.2 million, or 62.8% of total revenue, for the second quarter 2019.On a GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter 2020 was $2.3 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2019. The decline in net income was primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 on total revenue, partially offset by decreases in operating costs as we scaled back our operations due to the reduced demand.On an adjusted basis1, net income for the second quarter 2020 was $12.9 million, or $0.35 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income of $19.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2019. The decline in non-GAAP adjusted net income was consistent with the change in GAAP net income. The details regarding adjusted net income are included in the reconciliation tables included in this release.1 The Company believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures offers a meaningful representation of our performance, as we exclude expenses that are not necessary to support our ongoing business. We also make adjustments to facilitate year over year comparisons.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresIn addition to the results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this press release also includes certain financial measures which have been adjusted and are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“Non-GAAP financial measures”). These Non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted income from operations, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. In accordance with Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we have provided a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.These Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures. They are presented as supplemental measures of our performance in an effort to provide our stakeholders better visibility into our ongoing operating results and to allow for comparability to prior periods as well as to other companies’ results. Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to assess the financial health of our ongoing operating performance. Management encourages our stakeholders to consider all of our financial measures and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our performance.Adjusted net income for the second quarter 2020 excludes other charges of $5.0 million, $3.7 million of amortization expense related to our acquisition-related intangible assets, $1.3 million of unrealized foreign currency loss, $0.4 million of interest expense related to a portion of the Geneva Healthcare deferred purchase consideration, the tax effect of these adjustments, as well as the impact from the utilization of our net operating loss carryforwards. Adjusted net income for the second quarter 2019 excludes other charges of $2.2 million, $3.8 million of amortization expense related to acquired intangibles, $1.5 million of unrealized foreign currency loss, $0.1 million of interest expense related to a portion of the Geneva Healthcare contingent consideration, a $0.7 million gain associated with the termination of a former LifeWatch foreign pension plan, the tax effect of these adjustments, as well as the impact from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. By excluding expenses that are considered unnecessary to support the ongoing business, are nonrecurring in nature or which limit year over year comparability, we believe these Non-GAAP financial measures offer a meaningful representation of our ongoing operating performance. Included in these excluded items are transaction related expenses, primarily legal and professional fees, integration related expenses, primarily severance, patent and other litigation, amortization of acquired intangibles, costs related to the October 2019 information technology incident net of insurance proceeds, costs related to restructuring programs aimed at streamlining operations and reducing future expense, as well as other one-time items. These excluded charges are not part of the ongoing operations, and therefore, not reflective of our core operations. We view patent litigation as an extreme measure not typically required in our industry to protect a company’s intellectual property and which has not been common practice for us. We commenced patent litigation proceedings after we uncovered specific evidence of four distinct cases of misappropriation and infringement. We can choose to resolve the outstanding matters and terminate the expense at any time. We also included the income tax effect of these adjustments.In addition to adjusted income from operations, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share and free cash flow, we also present adjusted EBITDA. This Non-GAAP financial measure excludes income taxes, total other expense, net, other charges, depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense. EBITDA is a widely accepted financial measure which we believe our stakeholders use to compare our ongoing financial performance to that of other companies. Adjusting our EBITDA for other charges and other one-time items is a meaningful financial measure as we believe it is an indication of our ongoing operations. In addition, we also add back stock-based compensation expense because it is non-cash in nature. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA in a different manner.
