Financial Results

 

Fourth Quarter Report:

 

For the fourth quarter of 2014, RadNet reported Revenue of $185.6 million, Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $32.0 million and Net Income of $4.2 million. Revenue increased $7.2 million (or 4.0%), Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $150,000 (or 0.5%) and Net Income increased $3.0 million (or 238.3%) over the fourth quarter of 2013.

 

Net Income for the fourth quarter was $0.10 per diluted share, compared to a Net Income of $0.03 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2013. These per share values are based upon a weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding of 44.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 39.6 million of diluted shares outstanding in the fourth quarter of 2013.

 

Affecting Net Income in the fourth quarter of 2014 were certain non-cash expenses and non-recurring items including: $431,000 of non-cash employee stock compensation expense resulting from the vesting of certain options and restricted stock; $265,000 of severance paid in connection with headcount reductions related to cost savings initiatives; $468,000 gain on the disposal of certain capital equipment; and $1.3 million of amortization of deferred financing fees and discount on issuance of debt related to our existing credit facilities.

 

For the fourth quarter of 2014, as compared with the prior year’s fourth quarter, MRI volume increased 9.4%, CT volume increased 16.3% and PET/CT volume increased 3.9%. Overall volume, taking into account routine imaging exams, inclusive of x-ray, ultrasound, mammography and other exams, increased 10.5% over the prior year’s fourth quarter. On a same-center basis, including only those centers which were part of RadNet for both the fourth quarters of 2014 and 2013, MRI volume increased 7.1%, CT volume increased 14.1% and PET/CT volume increased 3.8%. Overall same-center volume, taking into account routine imaging exams, inclusive of x-ray, ultrasound, mammography and other exams, increased 7.3% over the prior year’s same quarter.

 

Dr. Howard Berger, President and Chief Executive Officer of RadNet, commented “We are very pleased with our fourth quarter performance. We had a very strong fourth quarter last year. And despite facing significant reimbursement cuts in 2014, we were able to exceed the Revenue and EBITDA performance of 2013’s fourth quarter. This year’s fourth quarter was a continuation of improved procedural volume performance and aggressive cost containment that we experienced throughout the year. Like last year’s fourth quarter, we benefited from increased procedures from patients in large-deductive health plans who sought to utilize medical services prior to these deductibles resetting in 2015. Also, we experienced improved patient volumes from additional enrollees in health exchanges under the Healthcare Reform Act.”

 

Annual Report:

 

For full year 2014, the Company reported Revenue of $717.6 million, Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $126.5 million and Net Income of $1.4 million. Revenue increased $14.6 million (or 2.1%) and Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased $13.7 million (or 12.1%). Income Before Income Taxes (excluding the Loss on Early Extinguishment of Senior Notes related to our refinancing transaction completed in March 2014) was $19.6 million compared to $5.9 million in 2013. This was an increase of $13.7 million (or 233%). Net Income for 2014 (unadjusted for the $15.9 million Loss on Early Extinguishment of Senior Notes) was $0.03 per diluted share, compared to Net Income of $0.05 per diluted share in 2013 (based upon a weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding of 43.1 million and 39.8 million in 2014 and 2013, respectively).

 

Affecting Net Income in 2014 were certain non-cash expenses and non-recurring items including: $2.5 million of non-cash employee stock compensation expense resulting from the vesting of certain options and restricted stock; $1.2 million of severance paid in connection with headcount reductions related to cost savings initiatives; $1.1 million loss on the disposal of certain capital equipment; and $5.7 million of amortization and write off of deferred financing fees and discount on issuance of debt related to our existing credit facilities and refinancing transaction.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2014, as compared to 2013, MRI volume increased 4.8%, CT volume increased 8.5% and PET/CT volume increased 0.4%. Overall volume, taking into account routine imaging exams, inclusive of x-ray, ultrasound, mammography and other exams, increased 6.4% for the twelve months of 2014 over 2013.

 

Dr. Berger commented, “I’m very proud of RadNet’s accomplishments in 2014. We faced approximately $22 million of Medicare reimbursement cuts throughout 2014. Our record Revenue and EBITDA were the result of a variety of factors including: (i) executing on a $30 million cost savings program commenced at the beginning of the year; (ii) increased revenue from signing several new capitation contracts during the year; (iii) larger patient volumes from state and privately run healthcare exchanges as a result of the Affordable Care act; and (iv) market share gains within a number of our regional operating subsidiaries.”

Dr. Berger added, “2014 was particularly noteworthy for us in that it marked the first time we had any material expansion outside of the United States. We recently announced significant contracts awarded to RadNet to provide national cancer screening services in Qatar and to provide a suite of information technology solutions to the largest private medical center company in Israel. In conjunction with winning these contracts and increasing RadNet’s corporate marketing presence in November 2014 at the principal radiology industry convention, we expensed investments in 2014 of over $1 million in advance of recognizing the associated revenue from these initiatives in 2015 and beyond.”

 

Actual 2014 Results vs. 2014 Guidance:

 

The following compares the Company’s actual 2014 performance with previously announced revised guidance levels.

 

  Original Guidance Range Final Revised Guidance Range Actual Results
Guidance Revenue (a) $700 million - $730 million $730 million - $745 million $747.4 million
Adjusted EBITDA(1) $110 million - $120 million $123 million - $128 million $126.5 million
Capital Expenditures (b) $38 million - $42 million $50 million - $52 million $53.2 million
Cash Interest Expense $30 million - $40 million $40 million - $42 million $41.6 million
Free Cash Flow Generation (c)

$30 million - $40 million

 

$30 million - $36 million

 

$31.7 million

 

(a)Service Fee Revenue, net of contractual allowances plus Revenue under capitation arrangements.
(b)Net of proceeds from the sale of equipment, imaging centers and joint venture interests.
(c)Defined by the Company as Adjusted EBITDA(1) less total capital expenditures and cash paid for interest.

 

Dr. Berger commented, “I am pleased that we met or exceeded our 2014 financial and operating guidance in virtually all categories. This was the result of great efforts by my management team in an industry that remains challenged with reimbursement and utilization pressures. It is clear to me that our scale and breadth of capabilities continues to distinguish RadNet as the leader in fixed site imaging. The strength of our 2014 operating results gives me confidence as we move into 2015.”

 

2015 Fiscal Year Guidance

 

For its 2015 fiscal year, RadNet announces its guidance ranges as follows:

   
Revenue (a) $745 million - $765 million
Adjusted EBITDA(1) $123 million - $133 million
Capital Expenditures (b) $40 million - $45 million
Cash Interest Expense $34 million - $38 million
Free Cash Flow Generation (c)

$40 million - $50 million 

 

(a)Service Fee Revenue, net of contractual allowances plus Revenue under capitation arrangements.
(b)Net of proceeds from the sale of equipment, imaging centers and joint venture interests.
(c)Defined by the Company as Adjusted EBITDA(1) less total capital expenditures and cash paid for interest.

 

“As reflected in our guidance, we are optimistic about 2015. Despite pricing cuts to Medicare, which we announced last November of approximately $6 million, we are anticipating increased Revenue, EBITDA and Free Cash Flow for 2015. We have significant growth drivers in our plan, including benefiting from capitation contracts we signed in late 2014, revenue from our recently announced breast disease management program in the nation of Qatar and continuing confidence about our ability to drive same-center procedural volumes. Our refinancing transaction in March of last year will result in lower cash interest expense for 2015 and our Capital Expenditures will be lower in 2015 than in 2014 (as 2014 included approximately $12 million of one-time spending related to the purchase of equipment we were previously renting). The combination of the lower cash interest expense and capital expenditures will increase our Free Cash Flow in 2015.” added Dr. Berger.

 

Dr. Berger continued, “Our guidance also incorporates what we are projecting to be a soft first quarter in 2015 due to the severe winter weather conditions that have existed in the northeastern and mid-Atlantic parts of the United States throughout January, February and into March of this year.”

Footnotes

 

(1) The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, each from continuing operations and excludes losses or gains on the disposal of equipment, other income or loss, loss on debt extinguishments, bargain purchase gains and non-cash equity compensation. Adjusted EBITDA includes equity earnings in unconsolidated operations and subtracts allocations of earnings to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries, and is adjusted for non-cash and extraordinary events which took place during the period.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to its nearest comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used as analytical indicator by RadNet management and the healthcare industry to assess business performance, and is a measure of leverage capacity and ability to service debt. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. As Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is therefore susceptible to varying methods of calculation, this metric, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

(2) As noted above, the Company defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less total Capital Expenditures (whether completed with cash or financed) and Cash Interest paid. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company uses Free Cash Flow because the Company believes it provides useful information for investors and management because it measures our capacity to generate cash from our operating activities. Free Cash Flow does not represent total cash flow since it does not include the cash flows generated by or used in financing activities. In addition, our definition of Free Cash Flow may differ from definitions used by other companies.

 

Free Cash Flow should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. As Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is therefore susceptible to varying methods of calculation, this metric, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
