iCAD REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR 2019 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Strong Q4 2019 revenue growth of 35% driven by a 39% increase in revenue from iCAD’s AI Cancer Detection segment

Conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET

NASHUA, N.H. – February 27, 2020 – iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD), a global medical technology leader providing innovative cancer detection and therapy solutions, today reported its financial and operating results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2019.

Recent Highlights:

 

   

Fourth quarter 2019 total revenue of approximately $9.4 million, an increase of approximately 35% over fourth quarter 2018.

 

   

Fourth quarter 2019 revenue in the Cancer Detection segment of approximately $6.9 million, a 39% increase over the fourth quarter of 2018.

 

   

Fourth quarter 2019 detection product revenue of $5.4 million an increase of 59% over the fourth quarter of 2018, driven by a $1.8 million contract with a world-renowned healthcare institution, the largest order in Company history

 

   

The first metastatic brain tumor was treated in the U.S. using the Xoft® Axxent® System.

“We are pleased with the overall performance of our business in 2019,” said Michael Klein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of iCAD, Inc. “In particular our results continue to be especially strong in Detection, as ProFound AI further penetrates the market. Our customers report life-threatening cancers being identified earlier and faster with this solution that is changing the landscape of breast cancer detection.”

“We have now completed one full year of the U.S. commercial launch of ProFound AI, following the December 2018 FDA approval,” continued Mr. Klein. “Our Detection revenue grew 39% in the fourth quarter of 2019, as compared to the same period of 2018, driven by a $1.8 million contract with a single hospital system in the U.S. Of the 39% growth in the Detection business, software license sales grew an impressive 59% year-over-year. As we enter our second year with ProFound AI, in the commercial marketplace we are confident that our innovation and competitive edge will remain robust and our differentiation will continue to expand.”

“In our Cancer Therapy segment, we are developing multiple new IORT applications targeting large market opportunities, such as brain, prostate and rectal cancer therapeutic indications” continued Mr. Klein.

We were excited to recently announce that the first metastatic brain tumor was treated in the U.S. using the Xoft® Axxent® System as part of a clinical trial utilizing IORT in patients with large metastases treated with neurological resection. The strong interest in this new application was driven by clinical results reported in the September 2019 issue of World Neurosurgery. In a matched pair study, 30 patients were treated for recurrent GBM with either a single fraction of radiation immediately following surgical resection, without chemotherapy or temozolomide following surgery, or routine postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy +/- concomitant or sequential EBRT. Median overall survival in the IORT group was 24 months versus 21 months for the comparison group. As of September 2019, nine patients were still alive from the IORT group, whereas none of the patients in the comparison group survived.”

“We continue to grow our business from a position of financial strength. We ended the year with $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $12.2 million at the end of 2018. Looking ahead, we are well-positioned to drive long-term growth and generate significant shareholder value,” concluded Mr. Klein.

Gross Profit: Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $7.2 million, or 76% of revenue, compared to $5.4 million, or 78% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2018. Gross profit percent changes were primarily due to changes in the mix of business.

Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $9.1 million, a $0.9 million, or 11%, increase, from $8.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.

GAAP Net Loss: Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 was ($3.3) million, or ($0.17) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of ($3.3) million, or ($0.20) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018.

Non GAAP Adjusted Net loss: Non GAAP adjusted net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 was ($1.9) million, or ($0.10) per diluted share, compared with a Non GAAP adjusted net loss of ($1.2) million, or ($0.07) per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018


Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA: Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, for the fourth quarter of 2019, was a loss of ($1.4) million, essentially flat as compared to the fourth quarter 2018 non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss. Please refer to the section entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures” and the accompanying financial table included at the end of this release for a reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA results for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Please refer to the section entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures” and the accompanying financial table included at the end of this release for a reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA results for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: As of December 31, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $15.3 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $12.2 million at December 31, 2018.

Convertible Debentures. On February 18, 2020, the Company notified the institutional and accredited investors, including, but not limited to, all of the then current directors and executive officers of the Company (the “Investors”) that as of February 14, 2020, the VWAP of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share for each of the preceding 30 consecutive Trading Days exceeded $8.00 per share, and in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Debentures, the Company shall cause all of the Investors to convert all of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Debentures and the Make Whole Amount (which includes all accrued but unpaid interest through the Forced Conversion Date and all interest that would have accrued through the December 21, 2021 maturity date of the Convertible Debentures but for the conversion), into shares of the Company’s Common Stock on a Forced Conversion Date of February 21, 2020.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP 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 understand the Company’s 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 Company’s ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of the Company’s ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or reduce management’s 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 Company’s 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 provisions for interest expense, other income, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, tax expense, severance, gain on sale of assets, loss on disposal of assets, acquisition and litigation related expenses. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an indicator of the Company’s 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 Company’s overall financial performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of the Company’s GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in its financial reporting and investor presentations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

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:

 

   

Interest expense: The Company excludes interest expense which includes interest from the facility agreement, interest on capital leases and interest on the convertible debentures from its non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA calculation.

 

   

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 Company’s business, and also because the total amount of expense is partially outside of the Company’s 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 and Depreciation: Purchased assets and intangibles are amortized over a period of several years and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after they are acquired. Accordingly, these non-cash 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 Company’s ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred.

 

   

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.


   

Loss on fair value of convertible debentures. The Company excludes this non-cash item as it is not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such item does not have a direct correlation to future business operations.

 

   

Acquisition related: relates to professional service fees associated with acquisitions. The Company does not consider these acquisition-related costs to be related to the organic continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired assets.

 

   

Litigation related: These expenses consist primarily of settlement, legal and other professional fees related to litigation. The Company excludes these costs from its non-GAAP measures primarily because the Company believes that these costs have no direct correlation to the core operations of the Company.

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.
