A detailed explanation is provided under “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

 

(d) Given the Company’s net loss in both the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, basic and diluted weighted average shares are the same.

Net Revenue

Second Quarter

Total net revenue for the second quarter of 2011 increased 54.9% to $147.4 million from $95.1 million in the second quarter of 2010, due primarily to the acquisition of Broadlane on November 16, 2010.

Comparing period-over-period organic growth, non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue of $147.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 increased 6.4% from non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue of $138.9 million in the second quarter of 2010. Total non-GAAP acquisition-affected net revenue in the SCM segment grew 6.0% to $91.6 million from non-GAAP acquisition-affected net revenue of $86.4 million in the second quarter of 2010 due to solid growth in group purchasing-related administrative fees, partially offset by lower DSS revenue. Total net revenue from the RCM segment increased 7.2% to $56.3 million from $52.5 million in the second quarter of 2010 as services-related revenue grew 23.3% and technology-related revenue was essentially flat versus the second quarter last year.

Six Month Period

Total net revenue for the first half of 2011 increased 47.4% to $277.9 million from $188.5 million in the first half of 2010, due primarily to the acquisition of Broadlane.

Comparing period-over-period organic growth, non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue of $284.0 million in the first half of 2011 increased 3.3% from non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue of $274.8 million in the first half of 2010. Total non-GAAP acquisition-affected net revenue in the SCM segment grew 3.6% to $176.5 million from non-GAAP acquisition-affected net revenue of $170.4 million in the first half of 2010. Total net revenue from the RCM segment increased 3.0% to $107.5 million from $104.4 million in the first half of 2010 as technology-related revenue grew 4.8% but was offset by a 0.9% decline in services-related revenue.


Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

Second Quarter

In the second quarter of 2011, total non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $44.3 million, or 30.0% of total net revenue, a 74.4% increase over total non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $25.4 million, or 26.7% of total net revenue, in the second quarter of 2010.

Comparing period-over-period organic growth, total non-GAAP acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2011 was $44.3 million, or 29.9% of non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue, a 17.9% increase from non-GAAP acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA of $37.5 million, or 27.0% of non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue, in the second quarter of 2010.

Six Month Period

In the first half of 2011, total non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $85.2 million, or 30.7% of total net revenue, a 60.2% increase over total non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $53.2 million, or 28.2% of total net revenue, in the first half of 2010.

Comparing period-over-period organic growth, total non-GAAP acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA in the first half of 2011 was $85.2 million, or 30.0% of non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue, an increase of 12.0% from non-GAAP acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA of $76.1 million, or 27.7% of non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue, in the first half of 2010.

Net (Loss) Income and Per Share

Second Quarter

Net loss in the second quarter of 2011 was $2.5 million, or a loss of $0.04 per diluted share, versus net income of $3.3 million, or earnings of $0.06 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010. The net loss in the second quarter of 2011 was primarily due to acquisition and integration-related costs as well as increased amortization and interest expense related to the acquisition of Broadlane.

Non-GAAP cash EPS, defined as EPS excluding non-cash acquisition-related intangible amortization, share-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and other non-recurring items on a tax-adjusted basis, was $0.23 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011, versus non-GAAP cash EPS of $0.17 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2010.

Six Month Period

Net loss in the first half of 2011 was $18.7 million, or a loss of $0.33 per diluted share, versus net income of $8.8 million, or earnings of $0.15 per diluted share, in the first half of 2010. The net loss in the first half of 2011 was primarily due to acquisition and integration-related costs as well as increased amortization and interest expense related to the acquisition of Broadlane.

Non-GAAP cash EPS was $0.40 per diluted share in the first half of 2011, versus non-GAAP cash EPS of $0.36 per diluted share in the first half of 2010.

Cash Flow and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2011 increased 4.2% to $37.3 million from $35.8 million in the first half of 2010. The company’s balance sheet at June 30, 2011 included $890.0 million in total bank and bond debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, which represented leverage of approximately 5.0 times trailing 12-month non-GAAP acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA.

2011 Financial Guidance

MedAssets full-year 2011 non-GAAP acquisition-affected total net revenue guidance was lowered by approximately 2.4% to a range of $575-587 million. SCM segment acquisition-affected net revenue guidance was maintained in the range of $359-367 million, and RCM segment net revenue guidance was reduced by approximately 6.0% to $214-222 million. The company’s non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA guidance was narrowed to $185-189 million and non-GAAP diluted cash EPS to $0.96-1.02.

Contracted Revenue Estimates

At June 30, 2011, the Company’s rolling 12-month non-GAAP contracted revenue was an estimated $558.3 million ($344.1 million from the SCM segment and $214.2 million from the RCM segment). This is a sequential increase of 0.5% from the first quarter of 2011.

(g) This amount reflects the tax impact on the adjustments used to derive Non-GAAP cash EPS - diluted. The Company generally utilizes its effective tax rate for each respective period to calculate the tax effect of each adjustment. Given the impact of the Broadlane acquisition on the Company's 2011 actual effective tax rate, the Company used a tax rate of 40.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was 42.7% and 38.5%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was 35.0% and 39.7%, respectively.
(h) Given the Company’s net loss in the second quarter and first six months of 2011, basic and fully diluted weighted average shares are the same.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 

In order to provide investors with greater insight, promote transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management and the board of directors in their financial and operational decision-making, the Company supplements its condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis herein with the following non-GAAP financial information: gross fees; gross administrative fees; revenue share obligation; EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA margin; acquisition-affected total net revenue; acquisition-affected EBITDA; acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA; acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA margin; acquisition-related purchase accounting revenue adjustment; acquisition-related SCM adjustments; diluted cash EPS; and contracted revenue.

 
These non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. The Company compensates for such limitations by relying primarily on the Company’s GAAP results and using non-GAAP financial measures only supplementally. Where possible, the Company provides reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Investors are encouraged to carefully review those reconciliations. In addition, because these non-GAAP measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these measures, as defined by the Company, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
 

Gross fees include gross administrative fees the Company receives pursuant to its vendor contracts and all other fees the Company receives from customers. The Company's revenue share obligation represents the portion of the gross administrative fees the Company is contractually obligated to share with certain of its GPO customers. Net administrative fees (a GAAP measure) are the Company's gross administrative fees net of its revenue share obligation. Total net revenue (a GAAP measure) reflects the Company's gross fees net of its revenue share obligation. These non-GAAP measures assist management and the board of directors and may be helpful to investors in analyzing the Company's growth in its Spend and Clinical Resource Management segment given that administrative fees constitute a material portion of the Company's revenue and are paid to the Company by approximately 1,150 suppliers and other vendors contracted by its GPO, and that the Company's revenue share obligation constitutes a significant outlay to certain of its GPO customers.

 

The Company defines: EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization; and adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and other non-recurring, non-cash or non-operating items. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are used by the Company to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and provides for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These measures assist management and the board of directors and may be useful to investors in comparing the Company's operating performance consistently over time as it removes the impact of its capital structure (primarily interest charges and amortization of debt issuance costs), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of the management team (taxes), as well as other non-cash (purchase accounting adjustments and imputed rental income) and non-recurring items, from the Company’s operational results. Adjusted EBITDA also removes the impact of non-cash share-based compensation expense and certain acquisition-related charges. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not measures of liquidity under GAAP, or otherwise, and are not alternatives to cash flow from continuing operating activities.

 

Acquisition-affected results include the activity of Broadlane prior to the Company’s actual ownership. The Broadlane acquisition was consummated on November 16, 2010. These results assume the acquisition of Broadlane occurred on January 1, 2010. Acquisition-affected measures (e.g. acquisition-affected net revenue; acquisition-related SCM adjustments; acquisition-affected EBITDA; acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA; acquisition-affected adjusted EBITDA margin) are used by management and the board of directors to better understand the results of operations of the Spend and Clinical Resource Management segment. Given the significant impact that this transaction had on the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and in future periods, the Company believes such acquisition-affected measures may be useful and meaningful to investors in their analysis of such results. Non-GAAP acquisition-affected measures are for illustrative and informational purposes only and are not intended to represent or be indicative of what the Company's results of operations would have been if this transaction had occurred at the beginning of 2010. These measures also should not be considered representative of the Company's future results of operations.

 
Acquisition-related purchase accounting revenue adjustment reflects an estimated reduction of net administrative fee revenue. Under the Company’s revenue recognition policies, administrative fees are recorded as revenue when reported to the Company by vendors. GAAP relating to business combinations requires that the Company estimate the amount of customer supply purchases (the driver of administrative fee revenue) occurring prior to the acquisition closing date and to record the fair value of the administrative fees (the asset) to be received from those purchases as an account receivable and any corresponding revenue share obligation as a liability. As vendor reports are received and cash is collected, the Company will not recognize revenue for this acquisition-related purchase accounting revenue adjustment.
 

The Company defines diluted cash EPS as earnings per share excluding non-cash acquisition-related intangible amortization and non-recurring expense items on a tax-adjusted basis, non-cash tax-adjusted shared-based compensation expense and certain acquisition-related charges on a tax-adjusted basis. Diluted cash EPS is not a measure of liquidity under GAAP, or otherwise, and is not an alternative to cash flow from continuing operating activities. Diluted cash EPS growth is used by the Company as the financial performance metric tied to the vesting of certain equity awards granted pursuant to the Company’s Long-Term Performance Incentive Plan.  Use of this measure for this purpose allows management and the board of directors to analyze the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring items from our operations, and by rewarding organic growth and accretive business transactions.  As a significant portion of senior management’s incentive based compensation is based on the achievement of certain diluted cash EPS growth over time, investors may find such information useful.

 
Contracted revenue is a forward-looking operating measure used by management and the board of directors to better understand revenue growth trends within the Company's business segments as it reflects the Company’s current estimate of contractually committed revenue to be generated under existing customer contracts in the forward 12-month period. Such information may be useful to investors in their analysis of the Company's revenue growth trends. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure cannot be performed without unreasonable effort.
