iCAD REPORTS 2013 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR FINANCIAL RESULTS
Quarterly Revenue Up 17%; Therapy Revenue Growth of 60% Driven by Further Adoption of the Xoft
System for the Treatment of Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer
Conference Call Begins Thursday, February 20th at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time
NASHUA, N.H. (February 19, 2014) iCAD, Inc. (Nasdaq: ICAD), an industry-leading provider of advanced image analysis, workflow solutions and radiation therapy for the early identification and treatment of cancer, today reported financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
Our strong performance throughout 2013 demonstrates the progress weve made with our broadened oncology strategy and, in particular, our Therapy business. Significant revenue growth, combined with a balance of targeted investments and disciplined financial management, allowed us to post non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million for the year, said Ken Ferry, President and CEO of iCAD.
Our Therapy business delivered significant revenue growth with meaningful increases in both product placements and utilization. Revenue from the non-melanoma skin cancer indication was especially strong, with support from three-year clinical data, favorable reimbursement and, most importantly, effective patient outcomes. We will continue to invest in programs to accelerate the market adoption of the Xoft system for the treatment of both skin and early breast cancer. With an estimated U.S. market penetration of less than one percent in both indications, there is considerable room for continued growth. We remain committed to ongoing clinical studies, supporting reimbursement expansion and raising awareness of the clinical benefits of our electronic brachytherapy for a variety of cancer indications.
The Detection business is delivering on its goal of leveraging our customer base with a balance of new product sales and recurring revenue. We are making progress towards long-term growth through recurring revenue from our service business, new customers and upgrades from our installed base for PowerLook, our next-generation mammography CAD platform, and from our MRI product offering with our strategic partner Invivo, a Philips Healthcare business. Looking forward, we believe the market transition from 2D digital to 3D digital mammography, or tomosynthesis, will provide a significant, multi-year market opportunity for our new 3D software workflow tools currently in development. We look forward to introducing the first product offering sometime later this year or early in 2015, concluded Mr. Ferry.
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Revenue: Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2013 increased 16.8% to $9.1 million from $7.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, due to a 60.4% increase in Therapy revenue partially offset by an 11.9% decline in Cancer Detection revenue.
Therapy revenue included Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System product sales, as well as the associated service and supply revenue. Cancer Detection revenue included film, digital mammography, MRI and CT CAD platforms, as well as service and supply revenue from these products.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO COMPARABLE GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share amounts)
The following is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company to describe the Companys financial results determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.
While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying performance of the Companys business operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Companys results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. However, management believes that in order to properly understand the Companys short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and/or impact on continuing operations. Management also uses results of operations before such items to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in the Companys ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of the Companys ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or reduce managements ability to make useful forecasts. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information helpful in analyzing the Companys financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to its peers and competitors.
Management defines Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as the sum of GAAP net loss before provision for income taxes, acquisition-related expenses, total other (income) expense, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, severance, gain on sale, loss on warrant, amortization of acquired intangibles, acquisition related, patent litigation and recall costs, contingent consideration, indemnification asset and goodwill impairment charges. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an important indicator of the Companys operational strength and performance of its business and a good measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Companys overall financial performance.
Management defines Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Loss as the sum of GAAP net loss before provision for the gain on sale of asset, severance, transaction, patent litigation and recall costs, contingent consideration, indemnification asset and goodwill impairment charges. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an important indicator of the Companys operational strength and performance of its business and a good measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Companys overall financial performance.
Management excludes each of the items identified below from the applicable non-GAAP financial measure referenced above for the reasons set forth with respect to that excluded item:
| Stock-based compensation expense: excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Companys business, and also because the total amount of expense is partially outside of the Companys control as it is based on factors such as stock price volatility and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our performance during the period in which the expense is incurred. |
| Amortization of acquired intangibles: acquisition-related expenses are reported at the time acquisition costs are incurred, and purchased intangibles are amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, these items are not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations. Thus, including such charges does not accurately reflect the performance of the Companys ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred. |
| Interest expense: In January 2012, the Company entered into a five-year, $15 million debt facility agreement. The Company excludes interest expense from its non GAAP Adjusted EBITDA calculation. |
10
| Severance: relates to costs incurred due to the termination of certain employees. The Company provides compensation to certain employees as an accommodation upon termination of employment without cause. Management believes that excluding severance costs from operating results provides investors with a better means for measuring current Company performance. |
| Gain (loss) on Warrant: The Company issued warrants in connection with the financing and the value changes according to fair value. It is excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Companys business, also because the total amount of gain or loss is partially outside of the Companys control as it is based on factors such as stock price volatility and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our performance during the period in which the gain or loss is incurred. |
On occasion in the future, there may be other items, such as significant asset impairments, restructuring charges or significant gains or losses from contingencies that the Company may exclude if it believes that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.
