InfuSystem Holdings, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results

“Steady Growth and Near Doubling of Year-to-Date Cash Flow to $8.1 million; Reaffirm 2018 AEBITDA Target of $14 million”

MADISON HEIGHTS, Mich., Nov. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InfuSystem Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American LLC: INFU) (“InfuSystem” or the “Company”), a leading national provider of infusion pumps and related services for the healthcare industry in the United States and Canada, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Third Quarter and Year-to-Date Highlights:

• Cash flows provided by operating activities were $8.1 million year-to-date, up $4.0 million or 97% from the same period of 2017.
• Net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $16.7 million and $49.6 million, respectively, a decrease of $0.9 million, or 5%, and $2.6 million, or 5%, respectively, from the same prior year periods. Absent the implementation of ASC 606, net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 would have been $18.1 million and $54.4 million, respectively, an increase of $0.6 million, or 3%, and $2.2 million, or 4%, respectively, from the same prior year periods.
• Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“AEBITDA”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $3.3 million and $10.0 million, respectively, a $0.6 million, or 15%, decrease and $1.7 million, or 20%, increase, respectively, from the same prior year periods.
• Net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.5 million, or $0.03 per share, and $0.8 million, or $0.04 per share, respectively, compared to a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, and $2.7 million, or $0.12 per share, in the same prior year periods, respectively.

Commenting on the third quarter, Richard DiIorio, Chief Executive Officer of InfuSystem, said, “InfuSystem continued its solid 2018 year-to-date performance during the third quarter. We are making strong progress and gaining traction on our strategic initiatives that we believe will lead to significant oncology market share gains in 2019. This includes the introduction during the third quarter of InfuSystem Mobile, a “first of its kind” mobile application to enhance safety and communication. Also setting us up strong for 2019 is our continuing success in winning new business for InfuBLOCK, our highly effective alternative to opioid pain management.”

“As was the case in the second quarter, the year-over-year comparisons are difficult and can obscure the progress we believe InfuSystem is making in improving its operations and future prospects.  In addition to the revenue reporting changes required by ASC 606, the sharp adjustments to our business that began in 2017 and continue in 2018, have resulted in some choppy quarterly financial reports.  The underlying direction, however, is very positive with evidence of this reflected in the company’s steady growth, our much stronger operating cash flow, and in our confidence that we will achieve substantially improved 2018 year-end adjusted EBITDA results.”

Mr. DiIorio continued, “InfuSystem’s board of directors and management team are focused on strategies that will deliver substantial long-term value creation for shareholders while ensuring superior care and service to our customers.  In the recently completed third quarter, we were successful in eliminating a long-running distraction to our business plan, when we won a contested proxy fight and then used our strong cash flow and improved banking relationship to execute a significant repurchase of outstanding shares.  With the company’s much improved financial condition, we have been able to both invest in future growth opportunities and execute year-to-date stock repurchases totaling $10.3 million, approximately 14% of our outstanding shares.”

Implementation of ASC 606:
Effective January 1, 2018, InfuSystem adopted, on a modified retrospective approach, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The effect of this change is to remove from reported revenue, for periods beginning on the effective date, the amount the Company recorded as a provision for doubtful accounts (“Bad Debt”) during such period. The adoption on a modified retrospective approach means that the Company will not restate its financials for the periods prior to the adoption of ASC 606.

The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in a reclassification of $1.5 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. These amounts, which previously would have been reported as Bad Debt on the Company’s income statement, are instead reflected as reductions in reported net revenues - rentals.

Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Gregory Schulte, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Our continuing success in better managing our pump fleet, improving collections from our third-party payors, and generally improving our operating efficiencies and expenses can be seen in InfuSystem’s significantly improved cash flows and our much-strengthened banking relationship.”

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $8.1 million, a 97% increase compared with cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 of $4.1 million. The Company has utilized this year-to-date increase in operating cash to increase its net investment in medical equipment and property by $2.7 million and reduce its net outflows for financing activities by $1.7 million, despite financing $1.7 million of stock repurchases through internal cash flows. 

Net revenues for the third quarter of 2018 were $16.7 million, a $0.9 million decrease, or 5%, compared to $17.6 million for the third quarter of 2017. Absent the aforementioned implementation of ASC 606, total net revenues would have been $18.1 million, a $0.6 million increase, or 3%, compared to the same prior year period. In addition, net revenues - rentals, absent the implementation of ASC 606, would have been $15.2 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1%, compared to the same prior year period and net revenues from product sales were $2.9 million, an increase of $0.6 million, or 28%, compared to the same period of 2017.

Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $49.6 million, a $2.6 million decrease, or 5%, compared to $52.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Absent the implementation of ASC 606, total net revenues would have been $54.4 million, a $2.2 million increase, or 4%, compared to the same prior year period. In addition, net revenues - rentals, absent the implementation of ASC 606, would have been $47.1 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 4%, compared to the same prior year period and net revenues from product sales were $7.3 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 5%, compared to the same period of 2017.

The net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.5 million, or $0.03 per share, and $0.8 million, or $0.04 per share, respectively, compared to a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, and $2.7 million, or $0.12 per share, in the same prior year periods, respectively. AEBITDA was $3.3 million and $10.0 million for the three and nine month ended September 30, 2018, respectively, a $0.6 million, or 15%, decrease and $1.7 million, or 20%, increase, respectively, compared to the same prior year periods. The quarterly net income decrease was primarily driven by increased Bad Debt and cost of revenues due to decreased margins on selective disposable supplies and increased labor servicing expenses on pump demand, decreased amortization of fully amortized intangible assets, and net increased selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to increases in stock compensation expense, incentive bonus accrual and increased costs related to the annual shareholder meeting. These decreases to net income were partially offset by increased net revenues and decreased income tax provision.

The year-to-date net income increase was primarily driven by increased net revenues and decreased amortization of fully amortized intangible assets and selling and marketing expenses, and net increased selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to increases in stock compensation expense, incentive bonus accrual, and increased costs related to the annual shareholder meeting. These increases to net income were partially offset by increased cost of revenues due to decreased margins on selective disposable supplies and increased labor servicing expenses on pump demand and decreased income tax benefit from prior year.
