Management Discussion

Richard DiIorio, Chief Executive Officer of InfuSystem, said, “Our third quarter financial results reflect the forecasted acceleration in our business in the second half of the year. We saw significant growth in both our top- and bottom-line results, accompanied by strong cash flow. The record revenue of $35.3 million which represents organic growth of 11% was driven by strong growth in our oncology and rental businesses, and ramping revenue in wound care third-party payer revenues. Our cash flow from operations in the quarter was very strong coming in at $9.8 million and was used to pay down debt and repurchase stock as part of our repurchase program.”

“During the quarter, we entered into two new strategic partnerships. In August, we issued a press release announcing the new distribution agreement with Smith+Nephew for negative pressure wound therapy. In September, we announced that SI Healthcare Technologies, our joint venture with Sanara MedTech, became the exclusive distributor of the Chemo Mouthpiece®, an oral cryotherapy device with FDA 510(k) clearance, that will be marketed to approximately 3,000 cancer centers in the United States. Each of these opportunities will help drive growth going into 2025.”

“Our core businesses, oncology and equipment rentals and sales, continue to grow and deliver strong operating returns as we pursue and ramp our major strategic initiatives in wound care and biomedical services. Our momentum is strong and we are excited about the future of InfuSystem. I am immensely proud of our team, as these results are a testament to their dedication, execution, and unwavering commitment to our patients and the inherent strength of our business,” concluded Mr. DiIorio.

2024 Third Quarter Financial Review

Net revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 were $35.3 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 10.7%, compared to $31.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase included higher net revenues for both the Patient Services and Device Solutions segments.

Patient Services net revenue of $20.8 million increased $1.5 million, or 7.7%, during the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to additional treatment volume and increased third-party payer collections totaling $2.4 million, offset partially by $1.0 million lower revenue from sales-type leases of NPWT pumps. The improved volume and collections benefited Oncology revenue by $1.8 million or 10.7%, Pain Management revenue by $0.2 million, or 14.3%, and Wound Care treatment revenue by $0.5 million, or 219%. Sales-Type Lease revenue of NPWT pumps, which had a tough comparison to an unusually strong prior year amount, decreased by $1.0 million.

Device Solutions net revenue of $14.5 million increased $1.9 million, or 15.2%, during the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year period. This increase included increased medical equipment sales of $1.1 million, or 89.5%, and higher rental revenue totaling $0.7 million, or 16.0%. Higher medical equipment sales were due to a large sale to an existing rental customer and reflects how timing for large contracts can vary from quarter-to-quarter. The increases in rental revenue was mainly attributable to a new customer added during the 2024 second quarter.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 of $19.0 million increased by $3.4 million, or 22.0%, compared to the third quarter of 2023. This increase was due to the increase in net revenues and by a higher gross profit percentage of net revenue ("gross margin"). Gross margin was 53.9% during the third quarter of 2024 compared to 48.9% during the prior year period, an increase of 5.0%. Gross profit and gross margin were each higher in both the Patient Services and Devices Solutions segments.

Patient Services gross profit was $13.7 million during the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of $1.9 million, or 15.8%, compared to the prior year period. The increase reflected the higher net revenue and higher gross margin, which increased from the prior year by 4.6% to 66.0%. The increase in gross margin reflected increased third-party payer collections, favorable gross margin mix and improved coverage of fixed costs from higher net revenue. The favorable gross margin mix was mainly related to the decrease in revenue related to NPWT equipment leases which had lower average gross margin than other Patient Services revenue categories.

Device Solutions gross profit during the third quarter of 2024 was $5.3 million, representing an increase of $1.6 million, or 41.2%, compared to the prior year. This increase was due to the increase in net revenue and an increased gross margin. The Device Solutions gross margin was 36.7% during the current quarter, which was 6.7% higher than the prior year period. The increase was due to favorable sales mix involving higher margin products including rental revenue and sales of used medical equipment.

Selling and marketing expenses were $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2024, representing an increase of 1.0%, compared to the prior year. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 7.8% compared to 8.5% in the prior year period. This decrease reflected a reduction in sales team members and improved coverage of fixed costs from higher net revenues.

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the third quarter of 2024 were $12.8 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 16.8%, from the third quarter of 2023. This increase included increased stock-based compensation expenses of $0.2 million, increased accrued incentive compensation totaling $0.3 million, an increase in accrued bad debt expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million of expenses not incurred in 2023 related to a project to upgrade the Company's information technology and business applications. Other increased expenses totaling $0.8 million were associated with revenue volume growth including the cost of additional personnel, information technology and general business expenses and included inflationary increases. G&A expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the third quarter of 2024 increased to 36.2% from 34.3% for the prior year period.

Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $1.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, for the third quarter of 2024 was $7.9 million, or 22.3% of net revenue, and increased by $1.7 million, or 26.6%, compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the same prior year quarter of $6.2 million, or 19.5% of prior period net revenue.

Balance sheet, cash flows and liquidity

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, operating cash flow increased to $12.5 million, a $6.0 million, or 91%, increase over operating cash flow during the same prior year nine-month period. The increase reflected higher operating income and lower working capital growth during 2024 as compared to 2023. Capital expenditures during the nine-month period of 2024 included purchases of medical devices totaling $12.2 million, which was $3.7 million, or 43%, higher than the amount purchased during the same prior year period. Purchases of medical equipment were higher during 2024 compared to 2023 because a higher portion of the revenue growth in 2024 came from rental revenues that require capital equipment purchases.

As of September 30, 2024, available liquidity for the Company totaled $46.9 million and consisted of $46.5 million in available borrowing capacity under its revolving line of credit plus cash and cash equivalents of $0.4 million. Net debt, a non-GAAP measure (calculated as total debt of $28.0 million less cash and cash equivalents of $0.4 million) as of September 30, 2024 was $27.6 million representing a decrease of $1.3 million compared to net debt of $28.9 million as of December 31, 2023 (calculated as total debt of $29.1 million less cash and cash equivalents of $0.2 million). Our ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to net debt (non-GAAP) for the last four quarters was 1.15 to 1.00 (calculated as net debt of $27.6 million divided by Adjusted EBITDA of $24.0 million).

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains information prepared in conformity with GAAP as well as non-GAAP financial information. Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, net debt and Adjusted EBITDA to net debt ratio. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release provide useful information to the Company’s management, investors and other interested parties about the Company’s operating performance because they allow them to understand and compare the Company’s operating results during the current periods to the prior year periods in a more consistent manner. This non-GAAP information should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and similarly titled non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently by other companies. The Company calculates those non-GAAP measures by adjusting for non-recurring or non-core items that are not part of the normal course of business. A reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the accompanying schedule, titled "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation" below. Future period non-GAAP guidance includes adjustments for items not indicative of our core operations, which may include, without limitation, items included in the accompanying schedule below. Such adjustments may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments, as well as non-core, nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated changes, expenses or gains or other items that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. The exact amounts of these adjustments are not currently determinable but may be significant. It is therefore not practicable to provide the comparable GAAP measures or reconcile this non-GAAP guidance to the most comparable GAAP measures and, therefore, such comparable GAAP measures and reconciliations are excluded from this release in reliance upon applicable SEC staff guidance.
