المصدر: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 07 أغسطس 2024 16:13:04 America/New_York
SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Health Catalyst, Inc. ("Health Catalyst," Nasdaq: HCAT), a leading provider of data and analytics technology and services to healthcare organizations, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.
“For the second quarter of 2024, I am pleased by our strong financial results, including total revenue of $75.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $7.5 million, with these results exceeding the mid-point of our quarterly guidance on each metric. I am also pleased with our bookings performance through Q2 2024, especially as it relates to our net new Platform Subscription Clients. In the first half of 2024 we signed more net new Platform Subscription Clients than in all of 2023, and our updated expectations of low-20s net new Platform Subscription Clients would represent the strongest year in the company’s history for this metric.” said Dan Burton, CEO of Health Catalyst.
Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
Key Financial Metrics
Three Months Ended June 30, Year over Year Change 2024 2023 GAAP Financial Measures: (in thousands, except percentages, unaudited) Total revenue $ 75,902 $ 73,213 4 % Gross profit $ 28,806 $ 26,603 8 % Gross margin 38 % 36 % Net loss $ (13,516 ) $ (32,613 ) 59 % Non-GAAP Financial Measures:(1) Adjusted Gross Profit $ 37,803 $ 36,423 4 % Adjusted Gross Margin 50 % 50 % Adjusted EBITDA $ 7,522 $ 3,513 114 % ________________________
(1) These measures are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). See the accompanying "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below for more information about these financial measures, including the limitations of such measures, and for a reconciliation of each measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.Financial Outlook
Health Catalyst provides forward-looking guidance on total revenue, a GAAP measure, and Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure.
For the third quarter of 2024, we expect:
- Total revenue between $74.5 million and $77.5 million, and
- Adjusted EBITDA between $6.0 million and $8.0 million
For the full year of 2024, we expect:
- Total revenue between $304.0 million and $312.0 million, and
- Adjusted EBITDA between $24.0 million and $26.0 million
We have not provided forward-looking guidance for net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, and therefore have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, because there are items that may impact net loss, including stock-based compensation, that are not within our control or cannot be reasonably forecasted.

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we believe certain non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share, basic and diluted, are useful in evaluating our operating performance. For example, we exclude stock-based compensation expense because it is non-cash in nature and excluding this expense provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance and allows investors the ability to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations, as a component in determining employee bonus compensation, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin
Gross profit is a GAAP financial measure that is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue, including depreciation and amortization of capitalized software development costs and acquired technology. We calculate gross margin as gross profit divided by our revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as gross profit, adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) acquisition-related costs, net, and (iv) restructuring costs, as applicable. We define Adjusted Gross Margin as our Adjusted Gross Profit divided by our revenue. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin are useful to investors as they eliminate the impact of certain non-cash expenses, as well as certain other non-recurring operating expenses, and allow a direct comparison of these measures between periods without the impact of non-cash expenses and certain other non-recurring operating expenses.
We present both of these measures for our technology and professional services business. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as these metrics generally eliminate the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall profitability.
The following is a calculation of our gross profit and gross margin and a reconciliation of gross profit and gross margin to our Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin in total and for technology and professional services for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 (in thousands, except percentages) Technology Professional Services Total Revenue $ 47,635 $ 28,267 $ 75,902 Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization (16,067 ) (23,993 ) (40,060 ) Amortization of intangible assets, cost of revenue (4,583 ) — (4,583 ) Depreciation of property and equipment, cost of revenue (2,453 ) — (2,453 ) Gross profit 24,532 4,274 28,806 Gross margin 51 % 15 % 38 % Add: Amortization of intangible assets, cost of revenue 4,583 — 4,583 Depreciation of property and equipment, cost of revenue 2,453 — 2,453 Stock-based compensation 391 1,349 1,740 Acquisition-related costs, net(1) 104 117 221 Adjusted Gross Profit $ 32,063 $ 5,740 $ 37,803 Adjusted Gross Margin 67 % 20 % 50 % ___________________

(1) Acquisition-related costs, net include deferred retention expenses attributable to the ARMUS and KPI Ninja acquisitions.Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net loss adjusted for (i) interest and other (income) expense, net, (ii) income tax provision, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation, (v) acquisition-related costs, net, (vi) litigation costs, (vii) restructuring costs, and (viii) non-recurring lease-related charges. We view acquisition-related expenses when applicable, such as transaction costs and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities that are directly related to business combinations, as costs that are unpredictable, dependent upon factors outside of our control, and are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. We believe that excluding restructuring costs, litigation costs and non-recurring lease-related charges allows for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period as these are separate from the core activities that arise in the ordinary course of our business and are not part of our ongoing operations. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and a comparison with our past financial performance, and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of our net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 (in thousands) Net loss $ (13,516 ) $ (32,613 ) Add: Interest and other (income) expense, net (2,361 ) (2,090 ) Income tax provision 70 85 Depreciation and amortization 10,657 10,735 Stock-based compensation 8,966 14,629 Acquisition-related costs, net(1) 3,431 495 Litigation costs(2) — 9,591 Restructuring costs(3) 275 — Non-recurring lease-related charges(4) — 2,681 Adjusted EBITDA $ 7,522 $ 3,513 __________________
(1) Acquisition-related costs, net include third-party fees associated with due diligence, deferred retention expenses and post-acquisition restructuring costs incurred as part of business combinations.
(2) Litigation costs include costs related to litigation that are outside the ordinary course of our business. For additional details, refer to Note 15 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(4) Non-recurring lease-related charges include the lease-related impairment charge related to our corporate office space designated for subleasing. For additional details, refer to Note 9 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share
Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net loss adjusted for (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) restructuring costs, (iv) acquisition-related costs, net, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, (v) litigation costs, (vi) non-recurring lease-related charges, and (vii) non-cash interest expense related to our convertible senior notes. We believe Adjusted Net Income provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and comparison with our past financial performance and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.
