Allscripts Announces Second Quarter 2020 Results

Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDRX) (Allscripts) announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Bookings(1) were $188 million in the second quarter of 2020. This result compares with $276 million in the second quarter of 2019. Contract revenue backlog totaled $4.4 billion as of June 30, 2020.

Second quarter 2020 revenue was $406 million compared with $445 million in the second quarter of 2019.

On a GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2020 loss from operations was $5 million and included $28 million of severance and other restructuring charges related to the Company’s significant cost reduction actions executed during the quarter. GAAP income from operations in the second quarter of 2019 was $5 million and included $9 million of restructuring and other charges. Non-GAAP income from operations in the second quarter of 2020 was $45 million compared with $45 million in the second quarter of 2019.

GAAP net loss in the second quarter of 2020 totaled $8 million compared with $150 million in the second quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income in the second quarter of 2020 was $30 million compared with $29 million in the second quarter of 2019.

GAAP loss per share in the second quarter of 2020 was $0.05 compared with loss per share of $0.90 in the second quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2020 were $0.18 compared with $0.17 in the second quarter of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA totaled $77 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with $75 million in the second quarter of 2019.

Earlier today, Allscripts signed a definitive agreement to sell its EPSi business unit to Strata Decision Technology, a unit of Roper Technologies, Inc. for $365 million. The transaction is expected to close later in the third quarter once customary closing conditions are satisfied. Upon transaction close, the EPSi client base and associates will transition to the buyer. The two companies will operate independently until the deal closes.

“Our second quarter results showed resilience as Allscripts and our clients continued to manage through the COVID-19 pandemic,” commented Paul M. Black, Allscripts Chief Executive Officer. “We leveraged both new and existing innovative solutions to support our clients and improve patient outcomes during this challenging time. At the same time, we remain focused on improving our cost structure to reflect the current revenue environment and we were successful in expanding Adjusted EBITDA margins across our business. We expect to remain disciplined around costs while also delivering for our clients as we benefit from a nimble operating model and the investments we have made across our portfolio. We are also pleased to unlock significant value for our shareholders through the definitive agreement to sell EPSi.”

(a) Interest expense and other, net has been adjusted from the amounts presented in the statements of operations in order to remove the amortization of the fair value of the cash conversion option embedded in the 1.25% and .875% Cash Convertible Notes and deferred debt issuance costs from interest expense since such amortization is also included in depreciation and amortization.

(b) Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by non-GAAP revenue.

To supplement this information, Allscripts presents non-GAAP revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating expense, income from operations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, effective income tax rate, net income, diluted earnings per share and free cash flow, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures under Section 101 of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The definitions of non-GAAP financial measures are presented below:

  • Non-GAAP revenue consists of GAAP revenue, as reported, and adds back recognized deferred revenue from the EIS business, Practice Fusion, HealthGrid, NantHealth’s provider/patient solutions business and non-material consolidated affiliates that is eliminated for GAAP purposes due to purchase accounting adjustments. Reconciliations to GAAP revenue are found in Table 4 within this press release.
  • Non-GAAP gross profit consists of GAAP gross profit, as reported, and excludes acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments, acquisition-related amortization, stock-based compensation expense and restructuring and other costs. Non-GAAP gross margin consists of non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of non-GAAP revenue in the applicable period. Reconciliations to GAAP gross profit are found in Table 4 within this press release.
  • Non-GAAP operating expense consists of GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) and research and development expense (R&D), as reported, and excludes restructuring and other costs and stock-based compensation expense recorded to SG&A and R&D. Reconciliations to GAAP operating expense are found in Table 4 within this press release.
  • Non-GAAP income from operations consists of GAAP income (loss) from operations, as reported, and excludes acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments, acquisition-related amortization, stock-based compensation expense, impairment charges and restructuring and other costs. Reconciliations to GAAP income from operations are found in Table 4 within this press release.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and consists of GAAP net income/(loss), as reported, and adjusts for: acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments; depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other costs; impairment charges; gain on sale of businesses, net; interest expense and other, net; equity in net earnings of unconsolidated investments; and tax provision (benefit). Reconciliations to GAAP net income/(loss) are found in Table 5 within this press release.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by non-GAAP revenue. See the reconciliations in Table 4 within this press release with respect to non-GAAP revenue and in Table 5 within this press release with respect to Adjusted EBITDA.
  • Non-GAAP effective income tax rate is based on non-GAAP pre-tax earnings and consists of the statutory federal income tax rate, Allscripts effective state income tax rate and adjustments for permanent differences.
  • Non-GAAP net income consists of GAAP net income/(loss), as reported, and adds back acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments; acquisition-related amortization; stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other costs; non-cash charges to interest expense and other; impairment charges and equity in net earnings of unconsolidated investments. Non-GAAP net income also includes a GAAP to non-GAAP tax rate alignment adjustment.
  • Non-GAAP net income attributable to Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. is a non-GAAP measure and consists of non-GAAP net income, as described above, with an adjustment to reduce non-GAAP net income for the percentage of non-controlling interest outside Allscripts ownership position. Reconciliations to GAAP net income/(loss) attributable to Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. are found in Table 4 within this press release.
  • Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share consist of non-GAAP net income, as defined above, divided by weighted shares outstanding – diluted during the applicable period.
  • Free cash flow consists of GAAP cash flows provided by operating activities in the applicable period, net of capital expenditures and capitalized software costs, including those incurred by businesses presented as discontinued operations.

Acquisition-Related Deferred Revenue Adjustments. Deferred revenue adjustments include acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments, which reflect the fair value adjustments to deferred revenue acquired in a business acquisition. The fair value of acquired deferred revenue represents an amount equivalent to the estimated cost plus an appropriate profit margin, to perform services related to the acquiree's software and product support, which assumes a legal obligation to do so, based on the deferred revenue balances as of the acquisition date. Allscripts adds back acquisition-related deferred revenue adjustments for its non-GAAP financial measures because it believes the inclusion of this amount directly correlates to the underlying performance of Allscripts operations.

Acquisition-Related Amortization. Acquisition-related amortization expense is a non-cash expense arising primarily from the acquisition of intangible assets in connection with acquisitions or investments. Allscripts excludes acquisition-related amortization expense from non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, and non-GAAP net income because it believes (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of Allscripts business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods because of new acquisitions and full amortization of previously acquired intangible assets. Investors should note that the use of these intangible assets contributed to revenue in the periods presented and will contribute to future revenue generation, and the related amortization expense will recur in future periods.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense. Stock-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense arising from the grant of stock-based awards. Allscripts excludes stock-based compensation expense from non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of Allscripts business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods as a result of the timing and valuation of grants of new stock-based awards, including grants in connection with acquisitions. Investors should note that stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to employees whose efforts contributed to the operating results in the periods presented and are expected to contribute to operating results in future periods, and such expense will recur in future periods.

Impairments (recovery). Impairment charges reflect the write-off of the book value of certain fixed assets that resulted from consolidating business functions and data centers and non-cash impairment charges associated with long-term investments based on management’s assessment of the likelihood of near-term recovery of the investments’ value.

Restructuring and Other Costs. Restructuring and other costs relate to certain legal proceedings and investigations, consulting, severance, incentive compensation and other charges incurred in connection with activities that are considered not reflective of our core business.

Allscripts excludes restructuring and other costs, in whole or in part, from non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of Allscripts business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods.

Non-Cash Charges to Interest Expense and Other. Non-cash charges to interest expense include the amortization of the fair value of the conversion option embedded in the 1.25 percent Cash Convertible Notes and 0.875 percent Convertible Notes issued by Allscripts during the second quarter of 2013 and fourth quarter of 2019, respectively.

Equity in Net loss (income) of Unconsolidated Investments. Equity in net loss (income) of unconsolidated investments represents Allscripts share of the equity earnings of our investments in third parties accounted for under the equity method, including the amortization of cost basis adjustments.

Tax Rate Alignment. Tax rate alignment aligns the applicable period’s effective tax rate to the expected annual non-GAAP effective tax rate.

Management also believes that non-GAAP revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating expense, income from operations, effective income tax rate, net income, diluted earnings per share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow provide useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding the underlying performance of Allscripts business operations. Acquisition accounting adjustments and restructuring and other costs made in accordance with GAAP can make it difficult to make meaningful comparisons of the underlying operations of the business without considering the non-GAAP adjustments provided and discussed herein.

Management also uses this information internally for forecasting and budgeting, as it believes that these measures are indicative of core operating results. In addition, management may use non-GAAP gross profit, operating expense, operating income, net income, earnings per share, Adjusted EBITDA and/or Adjusted EBITDA margin to measure achievement under Allscripts stock and cash incentive compensation plans. Note, however, that non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are performance measures only, and they do not provide any measure of cash flow or liquidity. Allscripts considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after capital expenditures and capitalized software costs. Free cash flow provides management and investors a valuable measure to determine the quantity of capital generated that can be deployed to create additional shareholder value by a variety of means. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Allscripts results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures with GAAP financial measures contained within the attached condensed consolidated financial statements.
