BioScrip Reports First Quarter 2017 Financial Results

 

Q1 Consolidated Revenue of $217.8 Million, loss from continuing operations net of income taxes of $19.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $5.2 Million

 

DENVER, CO, May 4, 2017 – BioScrip, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOS) (“BioScrip” or the “Company”) today announced its first quarter 2017 financial results. For the first quarter, the Company reported revenue from continuing operations of $217.8 million, net loss from continuing operations of $19.0 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $5.2 million, in line with the Company’s plan. For the full-year 2017, the Company continues to expect to achieve adjusted EBITDA in the range of $45.0 million to $55.0 million.

 

First Quarter 2017 Results

 

·Net revenue was $217.8 million, reflecting a core revenue mix increase to 72%, up from 60% in the first quarter of 2016, and 70% in the fourth quarter of 2016;

 

·Gross profit margin increased to 30.1%, up from 26.9% in the first quarter of 2016, reflecting the positive impacts from increased core product mix, Home Solutions synergies, and other cost reductions;

 

·The Company remains on track to achieve the previously announced $17.0 million in Home Solutions synergies and other incremental annualized cost reductions of $23.0 to $25.0 million, by the end of 2017;

 

·Consolidated loss from continuing operations, net of income taxes, was $19.0 million, an increased loss of $9.2 million from the first quarter of 2016. The increased loss was primarily driven by the negative impact of the Cures Act, plus additional depreciation, amortization and interest expense, offset partially by higher gross margins resulting from increased core product mix, Home Solutions synergies, and other cost reductions;

 

·Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $5.2 million, as compared to $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2016. This expected decrease was primarily driven by the negative impact of the Cures Act, offset partially by higher gross margins resulting from increased core product mix, Home Solutions synergies, and other cost reductions;

 

 

 

 

·As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $16.0 million of cash and it was in full compliance with its bank covenants.

 

“I am pleased with our Company’s first quarter performance, which was in line with our plan. Our sales team met our revenue target for the quarter and continued to increase our core revenue mix. In addition, our gross profit margin improved 320 basis points year over year and adjusted EBITDA met our expectations, driven by improved core revenue mix, supply chain efficiencies and cost-structure improvements,” said Daniel E. Greenleaf, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We also successfully completed the integration of the Home Solutions business and we remain on track to realize the full $17.0 million of cost synergies and incremental $23.0 million to $25.0 million in cost savings.”

 

2017 Guidance

 

The Company is reiterating its prior guidance of adjusted EBITDA in the range of $45.0 million to $55.0 million for full-year 2017. This guidance incorporates the estimated negative impact of the Cures Act legislation and the Company’s estimates regarding its contract with UnitedHealthcare. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the UnitedHealthcare contract on its 2017 revenue and will provide updated 2017 revenue guidance at the appropriate time.

 

Conference Call and Presentation

 

BioScrip will host a conference call and live webcast, May 4, 2017, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, to discuss its first quarter 2017 financial results. Interested parties may participate by dialing 888-372-9592 (US) or by accessing a link on the Company's website at www.bioscrip.com.

Forward-Looking Statements – Safe Harbor

 

This press release includes statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the statements regarding 2017 guidance, projections of certain measures of the Company's results of operations, projections of future levels of certain charges and expenses, expectations of Home Solutions cost synergies and incremental cost structure improvements and other statements regarding the Company's financial improvement plan and strategy and anticipated effects of the Cures Act and the UnitedHealthcare contract. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "may," "should," "could," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "outlook," "aim," "intend," "plan," "believe," "predict," "potential," "continue" or comparable terms. Because such statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties, actual future results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statement include but are not limited to risks associated with: the Company’s ability to successfully integrate the Home Solutions business into its existing businesses; the Company’s ability to grow its core Infusion revenues; the Company's ability to continue to execute its financial improvement plan to reduce operating costs and focus its business on its Infusion Services segment; the Company’s ability to evaluate opportunities for improvement and implement solutions as part of its strategic review process; the Company’s ability to comply with the covenants in its debt agreements or obtain amendments to such covenants; the UnitedHealthcare contract termination, including potential accounting charges and impacts on other contract provisions and their associated revenue; the success of the Company’s initiatives to mitigate the impact of the Cures Act on its business; reductions in federal, state and commercial reimbursement for the Company's products and services; increased government regulation related to the health care and insurance industries; as well as the risks described in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements after the date hereof, even though the Company's situation may change in the future. All of the forward-looking statements herein are qualified by these cautionary statements.

 

 

 

 

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to reporting financial information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company is also reporting Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute or alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as a substitute or alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of the Company’s liquidity. In addition, the Company's definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by the Company, represents net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill, stock-based compensation expense, and restructuring, integration and other expenses. As part of restructuring, the Company may incur significant charges such as the write down of certain long−lived assets, temporary redundant expenses, retraining expenses, potential cash bonus payments and potential accelerated payments or terminated costs for certain of its contractual obligations. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information regarding the performance of BioScrip’s business operations and facilitates comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results. For a full reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, please see the attachment to this earnings release.
