Electromed, Inc. Reports another $6 Million Quarter

 

Operating Income Increased 1178%

 

New Prague, Minnesota – May 10, 2016 - Electromed, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ELMD) today announced financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2016.

 

Net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 were $6.04 million, a 32.5% or $1.48 million increase, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Growth in total net revenues was attributable to strong results in the home care market in which revenue increased by 37.6%, or $1.46 million, compared to the same period of fiscal 2015. Home care sales, which accounted for nearly 89% of revenues, increased due to a higher number of approvals, a higher conversion rate of referrals to approvals, and a higher average selling price from third party payers, such as insurance companies, Medicare and Medicaid, for the Company’s SmartVest® products.

 

The Company reported net income of $.47 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to $0.04 million, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share, for the same period of fiscal 2015. The increase in net income was the result of increased revenue and reductions in manufacturing costs year over year.

 

Gross margins in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 were 76.7%, up from 69.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in gross profit percentage and gross profit dollars from $3.16 million to $4.63 million resulted from the increases in domestic home care revenue and the lower manufacturing costs. Operating expenses, which include selling, general and administrative as well as research and development expenses, in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, were $3.89 million, or 64.5% of revenue, compared with $3.10 million, or 68.0% of revenue, in the same period of the prior year. The increase was due to additional employees in the Company’s sales and sales support departments, additional expenses related to sales incentives and bonuses based on higher revenue, consulting fees associated with information technology (IT) improvements and outsourcing certain IT services.

 

Operating income increased 1177.6% to $.74 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, compared with $0.06 million in the same period of fiscal 2015. Net income increased 1194.6%, to $0.48 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, driven by higher net revenues and the improved gross margin.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, revenue increased 21.7%, to $17.30 million, compared to the same period of fiscal 2015. Gross margins were 77.4%, up from 69.4% in the same period of the prior year, while net income increased to $1.88 million, or $0.23 per basic and diluted share, compared to $0.84 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, in the same period of the prior year.

Commenting on the results, Kathleen Skarvan, Electromed’s President and Chief Executive Officer said, “I am very pleased with our third quarter results as we continued to deliver strong revenue growth and increased profitability. Our reimbursement team again excelled at moving referrals received by patients through the reimbursement process. Our sales organization delivered solid referral results and, during the quarter, we announced the addition of an experienced sales leader as John Kowalczyk joined as Vice President of Sales, leading our domestic sales initiatives.”

 

“In the third quarter, we again delivered improved gross margins which enabled us to drive higher overall profitability. Our net income was fully taxed, suggesting the potential earnings capability of the Company as we continue to grow revenues. We will be subject to normal seasonal and quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in revenue and profitability as we continue to upgrade our sales force, enter new regional markets in the U.S, and invest in product development and enhancements. However, I believe we have made sufficient progress on our strategic objectives to view the recent financial performance of the Company as marking a new level that we believe is generally sustainable moving forward.”
