Consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter of 2017 were $67.8 million, an increase of 12% over the same period in 2016. After adjusting 2016 results for the divestiture of PathLogic, revenue growth was 15%. Clinical genetic test volume(1) increased by almost 19% year over year. Average revenue per clinical genetic test (“Revenue per Test”) decreased by 8% to $338, primarily due to changes in test mix and reduced reimbursement levels for certain molecular tests.
Consolidated gross profit improved by $5.9 million, or 22%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2016 and consolidated gross margin improved by 380 basis points to 48.9%. Gross margin improvement was driven by productivity gains and cost efficiencies which resulted in an 11% reduction in average
cost-of-goods-sold per clinical genetic test (“Cost per Test”), and margin expansion in the Pharma Services business as a result of better leverage of payroll expenses.
Consolidated operating expenses decreased by $1.5 million, or 5%, from the prior year, primarily because fourth quarter 2016 results included a $3.5 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain intangible assets.
Interest expense for the quarter decreased by $4.1 million, or 75%, from the prior year, because fourth quarter 2016 results included a $3.9 million one-time expense associated with refinancing the Company’s bank debt at significantly lower interest rates.
Net income in Quarter 4 was $5.0 million compared to a net loss of ($6.2) million in the prior year’s fourth quarter. Included in this year’s results was a one-time $3.1 million gain in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was signed into law in December. GAAP earnings per share available to common stockholders, after deducting non-cash preferred stock charges, was $0.03 in Quarter 4 compared to a loss of ($0.18) per share in the prior year’s fourth quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $10.5 million in Quarter 4, a 29% improvement from the prior year. Adjusted Net Income(2) was $4.4 million compared to $4.4 million in the prior year. Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) was $0.05 per share compared to $0.05 in the prior year.
Accounts receivable ended Quarter 4 at $60.4 million, a decrease of $2.3 million from the end of Quarter 3 and the lowest level of 2017. Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) improved to 82 days, with the Clinical Division DSO at 78 days.
Douglas M. VanOort, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, commented, “We are very pleased with the record revenue and Adjusted EBITDA reported in Quarter 4. Clinical test volume growth was exceptionally strong, and cost and productivity gains drove a significant increase in our gross margin. Bad Debt expense remained high, although cash collections were excellent and accounts receivable balances are in the best shape since 2016. Service levels continue to be excellent, and our Clinical Division Sales teams have healthy pipelines of new accounts.”
Mr. VanOort concluded, “We are particularly pleased with the excellent results of our Pharma Services Division. Revenue grew 69% year over year to $8.7 million, and we signed a record $18 million of net new contracts in the quarter. We ended 2017 with a $67 million backlog of contracted revenue, an 81% increase over the prior year. These increases continue to be driven by immuno-oncology related work, including our proprietary MultiOmyx testing platform as well as growth in molecular testing. We are pleased to have opened our new European lab facility in Rolle, Switzerland in November, and Pharma sponsors are expressing strong interest in our expanded capabilities.”
2018 Financial Outlook:
NeoGenomics also issued 2018 guidance today. The Company expects consolidated revenue to be in the range of $260 to $272 million, including the adoption of ASC 606 (which equates to a range of $275 million to $288 million prior to the application of ASC 606) and GAAP Diluted EPS to be a loss of ($0.13) to ($0.08) per share. The Company expects Adjusted EBITDA(2) to be in the range of $39 to $43 million and Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) to be $0.15 - $0.20 per share.

The Company would also like to remind investors that there can be significant quarterly variance in its Pharma Services revenue and currently anticipates Pharma Services revenue and gross margin will be lower in the first quarter of 2018 than in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Current and prospective investors are encouraged to perform their own due diligence before buying or selling any of the Company’s securities, and are reminded that the foregoing estimates should not be construed as a guarantee of future performance.

Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of core operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting purposes and to manage the Company’s business. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management. The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not therefore present the full measure of the Company’s recorded costs against its net revenue. In addition, the Company’s definition of the non-GAAP financial measures below may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures
Non – GAAP Adjusted EBITDA
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined by NeoGenomics as net income from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iv) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and if applicable in a reporting period (v) acquisition-related transaction expenses (vi) non-cash impairments of intangible assets (vii) debt financing costs (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.
Non – GAAP Adjusted Net Income
“Adjusted Net Income” is defined by NeoGenomics as net income available to common shareholders from continuing operations plus: (i) non-cash amortization of customer lists and other intangible assets, (ii) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, (iii) non-cash deemed dividends on preferred stock, (iv) non-cash amortization of preferred stock beneficial conversion feature, and if applicable in a reporting period (v) acquisition related transaction expenses (vi) non-cash impairments of intangible assets (vii) debt financing costs (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS
“Adjusted Diluted EPS” is defined by NeoGenomics as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Shares outstanding. Adjusted Diluted Shares outstanding is the sum of Diluted shares outstanding and the weighted average number of common shares that would be outstanding if the preferred stock were converted into common stock on the original issue date based on the number of days such common shares would have been outstanding in the reporting period. In addition, if GAAP Net Income is negative and Adjusted Net Income is positive, Adjusted Diluted Shares will also include any options or warrants that would be outstanding as dilutive instruments using the treasury stock method.
Basis for Non-GAAP Adjustments
NeoGenomics basis for excluding certain expenses (income) from GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:
|
• |
Moving expenses – These expenses include costs associated with the move of our Irvine, California facility into our Aliso Viejo facility and restoring the Irvine facility back to its original condition at the end of the lease term. We are adjusting for these costs in Adjusted EBITDA as the move was the direct result of the Clarient acquisition and will not be an annually recurring item. Without adjusting for these expenses, the Company believes it would be difficult to compare financial results from operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis. |
8
|
• |
Non-cash, stock-based compensation expenses – Because many of the company’s full-time physicians reside in California, state regulations against the corporate practice of medicine require us to retain their professional service corporations rather than hire them as employees. GAAP provides that variable stock-based compensation treatment be applied for non-employee service providers. This variable accounting treatment can cause significant fluctuations in quarterly expense based on changes in the Company’s stock price from one quarter to the next and result in large positive or negative impacts to total operating expenses. Without adjusting for these non-cash expenses, the Company believes it would be difficult to compare financial results from core operations across reporting periods on a consistent basis. |
|
• |
Loss on sale of business – The impact of disposals of assets or businesses have been excluded as these losses represent infrequent transactions that impact the comparability between operating periods. We believe the adjustment of these losses supplements the GAAP information by providing a measure that may be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. |
|
• |
Deemed dividends on preferred stock – GAAP accounting for the unique structure of the Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock requires the Company to assume that such preferred stock will be outstanding for its entire ten-year term. In addition, GAAP requires that the escalating preferred dividend rate over time be accelerated for accounting purposes and amortized on a straight-line basis over the ten-year life of the instrument, irrespective of the minimal contractual requirements for “paid in kind” stock dividends in the early years. Since such implied dividends are not paid in cash, and since the Company believes that such preferred stock will be redeemed within the first three years it is outstanding, before any significant dividends have accrued under the contractual terms, the Company believes these non-cash expenses are not meaningful in evaluating the operating performance of the Company and it would be misleading to not adjust for such expenses across reporting periods. |
|
• |
Tax Benefit – The statement of operations includes a one-time tax benefit specifically related to the passing of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, which was signed into law in December 2017. The Company has excluded the one-time impact of this law in the calculation of adjusted net income as it is non-recurring. |
|
• |
Amortization of preferred stock beneficial conversion feature – This non-cash expense is also a direct result of the complex GAAP accounting requirements for our Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Company believes this expense is not meaningful in evaluating the operating performance of the Company, distorts comparisons across reporting periods, and that it would be misleading to not adjust for such expenses across reporting periods. |

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Guidance to Corresponding GAAP Measures
2018 net income available to common stockholders calculated in accordance with GAAP will be impacted by certain non-cash charges, including: (i) expenses related to variable stock-based compensation, (ii) approximately $5.7 million of expense related to the amortization of customer lists and other intangibles from the Clarient acquisition, (iii) approximately $4.0 million of deemed preferred stock dividends, and (iv) approximately $8.1 million for the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature related to the preferred stock issued in connection with the Clarient acquisition. These non-cash charges have been included in GAAP net income (loss) available to common shareholders and GAAP net income (loss) per share; however, they have been removed from Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Share.
The following table reconciles our 2018 outlook for Net Income, EBITDA and EPS to the corresponding non-GAAP measures of Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted EPS:
