Q2
2017 Financial Summary
Net revenue in the second quarter of 2017 increased 50% to $2.9 million from $1.9 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase
was primarily due to increased revenue from brand messaging products, as well as expanded distribution channels for the company’s
financial messaging. Additionally, the launch of new pharmaceutical brands, which now totals more than 100 between financial and
brand messaging, also contributed to the increase.
Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2017 were $1.6 million, up slightly from the second quarter of 2016. The increase was primarily due to additional expenses related to growth initiatives, including investments in the company’s executive and sales team.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2017 was $362,000 or $(0.01) per share, as compared to a net loss of $592,000 or $(0.02) per share in the second quarter of 2016.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.8 million at June 30, 2017, as compared to $6.7 million at March 31, 2017. The decrease includes $0.4 million used to repurchase common stock. The company continued to operate debt-free.
Management Commentary
“In Q2, our record top-line was driven by the expansion of our EHR network, ePrescriber reach and financial and brand messaging products,” said OptimizeRx CEO, William Febbo. “We also continue to add new pharmaceutical manufacturers and their respective brands. We are very pleased with our revenue growth combined with cost discipline.
“During the second quarter, we continued to see compelling ROI data on financial messaging programs which increased the adoption of the EHR channel for our clients, adding an additional 24 brands to our platform. We continue to work closely with WPP Health & Wellness companies as the digital media spend continues to be the fastest growing digital spend sector.
“To support further client and brand growth, we have continued to build out our team and recently added another member to the sales team for greater penetration and service. Health IT industry veteran, Miriam Paramore, was also appointed as our new president to oversee our product expansion, channel expansion and top-line growth.
“We have continued to acquire, integrate and expand into new promotional EHR/eRx platforms. In fact, we are actively engaged in discussions with several EHRs to integrate our technology into their platforms. Our teams are also working extensively with our existing platforms to expand the reach of our eCoupon product to all of their providers, as well as increase the utilization of the eCoupon functionality by their existing users.
“Given the growth of our pharmaceutical products and distribution network, we expect our distribution of financial messages will continue to increase, and brand messaging will continue to support top-line growth.”
“It’s important to note that our cost of sales percentage decreased from 64% in the first quarter of the year to 56% in the second quarter. We expect to see further improvement in future quarters as we implement new channels in our core financial messaging product that have lower revenue share percentages, and as we update our existing agreements to share third party costs.
“In step with this, we expect the margins on our brand messaging product to increase as we diversify across additional channels and increase brand messaging revenues. We expect this to help advance us toward our goal of achieving gross margins of 50% or greater.”
