BOWIE, Md. — February 22, 2017 — Inovalon (Nasdaq: INOV), a leading technology company providing advanced, cloud-based platforms empowering a data-driven transformation from volume-based to value-based models across the healthcare ecosystem, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2016.

 

“With 2016 behind us, we look forward to the positive forces in our business becoming more visible as we move through 2017,” said Keith Dunleavy, M.D., Inovalon’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. “While we did not accomplish our original financial goals for 2016, behind the scenes our efforts and investments drove strong and important progress expanding our capabilities and industry leadership. This progress is evident in many ways, including our introduction of multiple new offerings, expansion of our client base and statements of work in both core and adjacent markets, and significant increases in our proprietary datasets and interconnectivity. These successes demonstrate the increasing applicability and

 



 

differentiation of our platform as the healthcare industry continues its transformation from volume-based to value-based models, and support the growth and increased profitability we see in 2017 and beyond.”

·                  Net income for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $0.7 million resulting in diluted net income per share of $0.00, compared with $16.0 million and $0.11 per share, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2015.

·                  Cost of revenue for 2016 was $159.2 million, or 37.2% of revenue, compared with 33.4% of revenue for 2015.

 

·                  Net income for 2016 was $27.1 million resulting in diluted net income per share of $0.18, compared with $66.1 million and $0.45 per share, respectively, for 2015.

“The positive forces mentioned by Keith and discussed at our Investor Day in December continue to build momentum,” said Chris Greiner, Chief Financial and Operating Officer of Inovalon. “We expect these positive forces to overtake the impact of the previously-discussed headwinds and be more visible in the second half of the year. In addition, our continuing

 

2



 

efficiency initiatives, including greater automation and interconnectivity, as well as our growing revenue mix of higher-margin platform offerings, are generating greater value for our clients and increased operating leverage for Inovalon.”

 

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Non-GAAP net income are non-GAAP measures. Net income is the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP net income. Reconciliations of net income to Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP net income, identifying the differences between net income and each of these non-GAAP financial measures, are included in this press release after the consolidated financial statements.

 

Key Highlights

 

·                  Strong Expansion of EHR Connectivity: The Company dramatically expanded connectivity within the healthcare provider marketplace during 2016. Inovalon now has direct connectivity with more than 100,000 providers, representing growth of 446% since the beginning of 2016 and greater than 150% since the end of the third quarter of 2016 alone. The increased connectivity continues to improve the Company’s speed and depth of data accessibility and efficiency, which in turn enables more advanced analytics and greater value realization for clients, as well as operating efficiencies and competitive differentiation for Inovalon.

 

·                  Accelerating Growth of Proprietary Datasets: Growth in Inovalon’s client base, product breadth, and connectivity continued to drive strong expansion in the Company’s proprietary datasets in the fourth quarter of 2016. At the end of the quarter, Inovalon’s MORE2 Registry® dataset contained more than 150 million unique patients and 13.3 billion medical events, representing year-over-year increases of 15% and 21%, respectively, the fastest growth rates for these metrics since the third quarter of 2014.

 

·                  Healthy Demand and Expanding Diversification: Inovalon’s expanded sales pipeline and deal closures resulted in the Company increasing its client base to 451 in 2016, up from 372 clients in 2015, and closing 58 multi-year statements of work (SOWs) in 2016, up from 45 in 2015. The Company’s expanding client base is also reflected in increased market diversification (e.g., adjacent pharma and provider markets expanding to approximately 10% and 15% of revenue, respectively) and decreased client concentration (top-10 clients representing 62% of revenue in 2016, down from 68% in 2015 and 76% in 2014). Finally, the Company’s pipeline at quarter-end represented 4x the level at the beginning of the year, and continues to include an expanded number of typical-size opportunities as well as larger, more complex platform opportunities.

 

·                  Expanding Pharmaceutical Activity: During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company saw increasing interest for its pharmaceutical platforms serving both outcomes based contracting (OBC) and specialty pharmacy needs. This interest is stemming from both the pharmaceutical and payor sides of the marketplace. Serving as an example of this, during the fourth quarter Inovalon entered into an agreement with Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc. (BI), a research-based, global pharmaceutical company, on behalf of

BI’s diabetes alliance with Eli Lilly and Company, a global healthcare leader. As part of the engagement, Inovalon’s OBC Platform will support BI and Lilly’s FDA-approved medication Jardiance, a SGLT2 inhibitor addressing the risk of cardiovascular death in adult patients with type 2 diabetes, and considered to be a potential multi-billion dollar opportunity within the pharmaceutical marketplace. This adds to Inovalon’s growing portfolio of OBC platform engagements and specialty pharmacy platform engagements.

 

·                  Launch of Value-Based Provider Platform: During the fourth quarter of 2016, Inovalon continued its aggressive pace of innovation with the launch of Inovalon’s INDICES® Value-Based Provider Platform (see description below). The platform has been met with strong market interest. Effective January 1, 2017, Inovalon entered into a five year contract to provide the platform to a top-five national health plan. The implementation ramps during 2017 and will cover all lines of the health plan’s business, including all Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, commercial, and ACA members, across all providers in all states where the organization operates. This new offering is another demonstration of Inovalon’s growing portfolio of enterprise-scale, cloud-based platform capabilities.

 

Other Financial Data and Key Metrics

 

The following constitute other financial and key metrics which are presented quarterly.

 

·                  Growth of Datasets: At December 31, 2016, the MORE2 Registry® dataset contained more than 150.9 million unique patient counts and 13.3 billion medical event counts, increases of 15% and 21%, respectively, compared with December 31, 2015.

 

·                  Investment in Innovation: For the quarter ended December 31, 2016, Inovalon’s ongoing investment supporting innovations in advanced, cloud-based platforms empowering a data-driven transformation from volume-based to value-based models was $21.1 million, or 22% of revenue. For the full year 2016, Inovalon’s Investment in Innovation was $62.4 million, or 15% of revenue.

 

·                  Analytical Process Count Growth: Inovalon’s trailing 12-month Patient Analytical Month (PAM) count, which the Company believes is indicative of the Company’s overall level of analytical activity, grew to more than 26.4 billion as of December 31, 2016, an increase of 23% as compared with December 31, 2015.

 

Please see the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for further detail regarding the preceding other financial data and key metrics.

2017 Financial Guidance

 

The headwinds previously discussed by the Company are winding down as anticipated. The remaining negative impact results in a revenue decline of approximately 6% on a reported basis (down approximately 11% on an organic basis) during the first half of 2017. Thereafter, in the absence of these headwinds and in the setting of the positive factors noted above, the Company is seen returning materially towards historical growth rates in the second half, with growth of approximately 17% on a reported basis (approximately 11% on an organic basis) and significant Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion.

 

On a full-year 2017 basis, the combination of these materially different halves are summarized in the following general guidance:

 

·                  Revenue is expected to be between $440.5 million and $455.0 million

·                  Net Income is expected to be between $19.5 million and $24.0 million

·                  Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $105.2 million and $112.5 million

·                  Non-GAAP net income is expected to be between $42.2 million and $46.6 million

·                  Diluted net income per share is expected to be between $0.13 and $0.16

·                  Non-GAAP diluted net income per share is expected to be between $0.28 and $0.31

 

Inovalon’s 2017 guidance excludes the impact of any acquisitions that have not yet been announced or consummated. In addition, while the Company’s sales pipeline contains a number of potentially significant strategic platform opportunities, 2017 guidance does not assume a significant contribution from these opportunities.

 

Reconciliations of net income, the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP net income, identifying the differences between each of these non-GAAP financial measures and net income, are included in this press release after the consolidated financial statements.

 

While the ongoing implementation of the share repurchase program or changes in the stock price could change the fully diluted share count, under the treasury stock method, the Company is assuming 148 million shares for the full year 2017. Additionally, the Company’s guidance is assuming a 40.0% effective tax rate for the full year 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Inovalon provides the measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Non-GAAP net income as additional information for evaluating the Company’s operating results. These measures are not prepared in accordance with, or as an alternative for, GAAP accounting and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

 

Investors frequently have requested information from management regarding depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges, such as stock-based compensation, as well as the impact of non-comparable items and management believes, based on discussions with investors, that these non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ ability to assess Inovalon’s historical and projected future financial performance. While management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. For example, one limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes depreciation and amortization, which represents the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in our business. Inovalon compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures that are provided above. These non-GAAP measures include financial information that is prepared in accordance with GAAP and presented in our consolidated financial statements and are used to evaluate our business, measure our performance, develop financial forecasts and make strategic decisions and as an important factor in determining variable compensation.

 

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

 

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for the impact of depreciation and amortization, realized losses on short-term investments, gain on disposal of equipment, interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation, acquisition costs, tax on equity exercises, and other non-comparable items. A reconciliation of net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA is provided above.

 

Adjusted EBITDA margin is the Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, divided by revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP.

 

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental measures of performance to gain insight into operating effectiveness. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as key metrics to assess its ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth and the scalability of the Company’s business model. The Company believes that the exclusion of the expenses eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provides management and investors a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s core business and operating results by excluding items that are not comparable across reporting periods or that do not otherwise relate to the Company’s ongoing operating results. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating results. However, use of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin as analytical tools has limitations, and investors and others should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in Inovalon’s industry, might calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin or similarly titled measures differently, which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures.

 

Non-GAAP net income

 

The Company defines Non-GAAP net income as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude tax-affected stock-based compensation expense, acquisition costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, tax on equity exercises, and other non-comparable items.

 

The Company uses Non-GAAP net income as a supplemental measure of performance to gain insight into financial effectiveness. The Company uses Non-GAAP net income as a key metric to assess its ability to increase revenues while controlling expense growth and the scalability of its business model. The Company believes that the exclusion of the expenses eliminated in calculating Non-GAAP net income provides management and investors a useful measure for period to period comparisons of the Company’s core business and financial results by excluding items that are not comparable across reporting periods or that do not otherwise relate to its ongoing financial results. Accordingly, the Company believes that Non-GAAP net income provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s performance.
