FRANKLIN, Tenn. (March 7, 2012) MModal Inc. (NASDAQ: MODL), a leading provider of integrated clinical documentation solutions for the U.S. healthcare industry, announced its financial results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2011.

“We have continued to improve our execution, and I am pleased with the tremendous efforts of our team. Additionally, we have made progress on our goals of unifying the Company and solutions under one brand, signing significant strategic partnerships and competing much more effectively in the market,” noted Vern Davenport, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of M*Modal. “With an experienced healthcare management team now in place, we expect to accelerate our efforts in addressing our customers’ pressing needs of more robust clinical information capture and physician adoption of technology as well as the continuing challenges of cost and quality.”

Operating Results

Net revenues were $443.8 million for the full year ended December 31, 2011, compared with $417.3 million for the full year ended December 31, 2010. Net revenues were $116.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with $110.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2010.

Adjusted EBITDA for the full year ended December 31, 2011, was $118.1 million, or 26.6% of net revenues, compared with $85.8 million, or 20.6% of net revenues, for the full year ended December 31, 2010. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $34.1 million, or 29.3% of net revenues, compared with $28.0 million, or 25.4% of net revenues, for the fourth quarter of 2010. Adjusted EBITDA

includes $0.4 million and $1.0 million of realized losses from foreign currency hedge transactions for the full year and three months ended December 31, 2011, respectively.

Net income available to common shareholders for the full year ended December 31, 2011, was $56.2 million, or $1.12 per fully diluted share, compared with $5.8 million, or $0.16 per fully diluted share, for the full year ended December 31, 2010. Net income available to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $27.8 million, or $0.50 per fully diluted share, compared with $1.4 million, or $0.04 per fully diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2010. Net income available to common shareholders and income per diluted share for the full year and three months ended December 31, 2011 was increased by an income tax benefit of $43.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, and $26.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, respectively, primarily related to the reduction of valuation allowance on our consolidated deferred tax assets.

Adjusted net income for the full year ended December 31, 2011, was $72.2 million, or $1.34 per fully diluted share, compared with $52.6 million, or $1.01 per fully diluted share, in the full year ended December 31, 2010. Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $21.2 million, or $0.38 per fully diluted share, compared with $14.7 million, or $0.28 per fully diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2010.

During the full year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $9.9 million, including a reduction in workforce and a charge related to office closures. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $0.4 million related to the previously announced integration of MultiModal Technologies, Inc. The benefits from these restructuring efforts are expected to be fully realized beginning in 2012.

Commenting on the financial results, Ron Scarboro, Chief Financial Officer of M*Modal, stated, “Our improved gross profit margin of 403 basis points from the prior quarter and $7.8 million of gross profit from the prior-year quarter have been realized from our strong execution across our medical transcription outsource services base to move to a globalized delivery system and further penetrate post-capture speech recognition technologies among our volumes as well as leveraging our M*Modal Fluency™ and M*Modal Catalyst™ solutions. These improved margins are the catalyst for our increased planned investments in our go-to-market initiatives and technology platforms.”

Liquidity and Capital Structure

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $29.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $296.5 million in debt. For the full year ended December 31, 2011, free cash flow was $65.4 million compared with $54.8 million for the full year ended December 31, 2010. Free cash flow for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $19.0 million compared with $13.9 million in the prior-year period.

For the fourth quarter of 2011, capital expenditures were $7.0 million compared with $4.7 million in the prior-year period.

Accounts receivable were $74.4 million as of December 31, 2011 compared with $82.0 million as of December 31, 2010. Days Sales Outstanding were 58.5 days at year-end 2011 compared with 67.8 days at year-end 2010.

Additionally, the Company had approximately $183 million of capitalized tax intangibles, of which approximately 62% are expected to be amortized for tax purposes, on a declining basis, over the next five years.

Forward-Looking Statements

Information provided and statements contained in this press release that are not purely historical, such as statements regarding our 2012 performance goals, our business strategy and proposed investments, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements only speak as of the date of this press release and the Company assumes no obligation to update the information included in this press release. Statements made in this press release that are forward-looking in nature may involve risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, including, without limitation, specific factors discussed herein and in other releases and public filings made by the Company (including filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission). Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, expectations may prove to have been materially different from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company also disclaims any obligation to update its view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward-looking statements made in this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, results provided throughout this document, M*Modal has provided certain non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate the results of our performance. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures, are useful to both management and investors in analyzing the Company’s ongoing business and operating performance. The Company believes that providing the non-GAAP information to investors, in addition to the GAAP presentation, allows investors to view the Company’s financial results in the way that management views financial results. The tables attached to this press release include a reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income on a forward-looking basis as part of our performance goals for fiscal 2012 and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These measures are subject to change because management cannot predict, with sufficient reliability, potential changes in tax valuation allowances,

potential restructuring impacts, contingencies related to past and future acquisitions, and changes in fair values of our derivative instruments, all of which are difficult to estimate primarily due to dependencies on future events.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to MModal Inc., as applicable, plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, cost (benefit) of legal proceedings, settlements, and accommodations, acquisition and restructuring charges, discontinued operations, equity in income of affiliated company, share based compensation and other non-cash awards, gain on sale of investment, and realized gain on settlement of foreign currency hedges, excluding other (income) expense. The realized gain on settlement of foreign currency hedges is a component of other (income) expense, as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Share-based compensation and other non-cash awards represents only the portion of such expense that is a component of selling, general and administrative expense, as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as it excludes such expense attributable to the Company’s restructuring actions.

We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by excluding the following:

 

 

potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense, net), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies for changes in effective tax rates), the age and book depreciation of fixed assets (affecting depreciation expense);

 

 

the impact of non-cash charges; and

 

 

the impact of acquisition and integration related charges, restructuring charges, and certain unusual or nonrecurring items.

Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of operating performance on a more consistent basis, we also use Adjusted EBITDA in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as measures of our profitability or liquidity. We understand that although Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

 

 

Although depreciation is a non-cash charge, the assets being depreciated will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

 

 

Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined by the Company as Adjusted EBITDA less consolidated interest expense (net of non-cash interest), less capital expenditures (including capitalized software development costs), and less tax provision (net of deferred tax provision). Management believes that utilization of Free Cash Flow is an important non-GAAP measure of the Company’s ability to convert operating results into cash.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined by the Company as Adjusted EBITDA less amortization expense for capitalized intangible assets (excluding acquired intangibles), less interest expense (net of non-cash interest), and less current tax provision. We measure Adjusted Net Income based on Proforma Shares Outstanding (see below). Management believes that utilization of Adjusted Net Income is an important non-GAAP financial measure of our normalized operating results.

Proforma Shares Outstanding

For purposes of evaluating our results on per-share metrics, many of our computations utilize proforma share computations. Our measure of proforma shares includes our Basic and Diluted share computations utilized for GAAP purposes, plus our estimate of the impacts of common stock equivalents which consists of stock options, restrictive stock issuable to certain key employees, shares issued to former principal stockholders, shares issued to former principal stockholders and shares issued in our initial public offering, our private exchange offer, our public exchange offer and our short-form merger with MModal MQ Inc. (f/k/a MedQuist Inc.). The pro forma shares are calculated as if the shares that were issued to former principal stockholders and in our initial public offering, our private exchange offer, our public exchange offer and our short-form merger were issued and outstanding as of the beginning of each period presented.

Total Billed Equivalent Line Counts

Total billed equivalent line counts are defined as the number of lines and line equivalents billed for the period, as defined by a customer’s contract, and includes volume processed on the Company’s transcription platforms as well as technology volume (speech recognition).
