OptimizeRx Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

 

- Q2 revenue of $18.8 million, increasing 36% year-over-year

- Q2 gross profit increased 50% year-over-year to $11.7 million with a gross margin of 62%

- Won 8 DAAP deals during Q2

 

WALTHAM, Mass. – August 8, 2024 – OptimizeRx Corp. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: OPRX), the leading provider of healthcare technology solutions helping life sciences companies reach and engage healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients, reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Quarterly comparisons are to the same year-ago period.

 

Financial Highlights 

 

Revenue in the second quarter of 2024 increased 36% to $18.8 million, as compared to $13.8 million in the same year ago period.

 

Gross profit in the second quarter of 2024 increased 50% year-over-year to $11.7 million, from $7.8 million during the second quarter of 2023.

 

GAAP net loss totaled $(4.0) million or $(0.22) per basic and diluted share in the second quarter, as compared to $(4.1) million or $(0.24) during the second quarter of 2023.

 

Non-GAAP net income in the second quarter totaled $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, as compared to non-GAAP net loss of $(0.2) million or $(0.01) per diluted share during the second quarter of 2023 (see definition of these non-GAAP measures and reconciliation to GAAP below).

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 came in at $0.5 million compared to $(0.8) million in the same year ago period (see definition of this non-GAAP measure and reconciliation to GAAP below).

 

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $15.0 million as of June 30, 2024 as compared to $13.9 million as of December 31, 2023.

 

Will Febbo, OptimizeRx CEO commented, “In the second quarter, revenue came in short of our expectations and consensus midpoint while adjusted EBITDA came in above consensus. This was primarily a result of a timing issue with closing one of our largest DAAP deals. We are having success in converting our DAAP pipeline into closed deals; however, because DAAP is a new, innovative solution in the market, there are additional approvals at the pharma customer level required to close out all the items that would allow us to take the revenue in the quarter. To be more specific, one of our long-standing customers committed to moving forward with an approximately $6 million multi-brand DAAP program that was due to launch in the second quarter of 2024 and got slightly delayed in their internal approval process. Without this delay, I believe we would have exceeded consensus expectations both on the top and bottom lines.”

 

 

 

 

“In the meantime, we’ve observed a significant distinction among our top 3 pharma clients, with an average revenue per client at approximately $9.7 million, compared to an average revenue of $2.7 million for our top 20 pharma clients. This highlights the value our top clients see in our DAAP solutions, as they continue to allocate larger portions of their commercial budgets to OptimizeRx. The strong performance with our top 3 customers signals robust market adoption of our evolving solutions, which we are leveraging across other accounts.”

Definition and Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This earnings release includes a presentation of non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per diluted share or non-GAAP EPS, and Adjusted EBITDA, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures.

 

The Company defines non-GAAP net loss as GAAP net loss with an adjustment, as applicable, to add back depreciation, amortization, amortization of debt issuance costs, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, severance expenses, income or loss related to the fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss from the disposal of a business, asset impairment charges, other income (loss), and deferred income taxes. Non-GAAP EPS is defined as non-GAAP net loss divided by the number of weighted average shares outstanding on a diluted basis. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net loss with an adjustment, as applicable, to add back depreciation, amortization, interest, stock-based compensation, acquisition expenses, severance expenses, income or loss related to the fair value of contingent consideration, gain or loss from the disposal of a business, asset impairment charges, other income (loss), and deferred income taxes. The Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures to aid investors in better understanding its performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight into the operations and cash flow of the Company.

 

Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a Company’s non-cash operating expenses, management believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude non-cash expenses allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company’s business operating results and those of other companies, as well as provides an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating the Company’s business operating results over different periods of time.

 

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in the Company’s industry, as other companies in the industry may calculate such non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company’s non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP EPS and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures to be substitutes for or superior to the information provided by its GAAP financial results.

The table, “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures,” included below, provides a reconciliation of Non-GAAP net (loss), Non-GAAP EPS and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Although the Company provides guidance for Adjusted EBITDA, it is not able to provide guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliations for forward-looking figures would require unreasonable efforts at this time because of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of certain components of various necessary GAAP components, including, for example, those related to compensation, acquisition expenses, amortization or others that may arise during the year, and the Company’s management believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

 

Definition of Key Performance Indicators*

 

Top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturers: We have updated the definition of “top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturers” in our key performance indicators to be based upon Fierce Pharma’s most updated list of “The top 20 pharma companies by 2023 revenue”. We previously used “The top 20 pharma companies by 2022 revenue”. As a result of this change, prior periods have been restated for comparative purposes.

 

Net revenue retention: Net revenue retention is a comparison of revenue generated from all clients in the previous period to total revenue generated from the same clients in the following year (i.e., excludes new client relationships for the most recent year).

 

Revenue per average Full Time Employee: We define revenue per average full-time employee (FTE) as total revenue over the last 12 months (LTM) divided by the average number of employees over the LTM, which is calculated by taking our total number of FTEs at the end of the prior year period by our total FTE headcount at the end of the most recent.
