Rhea-AI Summary

Certara reported a strong second quarter of fiscal year 2022, achieving $82.8 million in revenue, an 18% increase compared to the prior year. Revenue excluding Pinnacle 21 was $75.8 million, up 8%. Net loss decreased to $0.6 million from $2.9 million, marking a significant improvement. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $28.0 million, reflecting 9% growth. While full-year guidance has been adjusted to $325-$335 million due to currency fluctuations and slow regulatory market recovery, Certara remains optimistic about its biosimulation and Pinnacle 21 services.

Biosimulation software and services fuel second quarter growth

PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Certara, Inc. (Nasdaq: CERT), a global leader in biosimulation, today reported its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and adjusted its full year guidance.

Second Quarter Highlights:

  • Revenue was $82.8 million, compared to $70.1 million in the second quarter of 2021, representing growth of 18% over the second quarter of 2021 on a reported basis and 21% at constant currency.
  • Excluding Pinnacle 21, revenue was $75.8 million, representing growth of 8% over the second quarter of 2021 on a reported basis and 11% at constant currency.
  • Net loss was $0.6 million, compared to net loss of $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $2.3 million in income over the second quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $28.0 million, compared to $25.5 million in the second quarter of 2021, representing growth of 9% over the second quarter of 2021.
  • Full-year 2022 guidance has been adjusted for foreign currency exchange rates and a slow recovery in the regulatory services market.

“Certara delivered double-digit growth in bookings and biosimulation revenue but faced headwinds from foreign exchange rates and slow growth in the regulatory services business,” said William F. Feehery, chief executive officer. “We are excited about the recent introduction of two new software solutions, Simcyp Discovery Simulator and the Pinnacle 21 Data Exchange product.”

Second Quarter 2022 Results

“With our strong balance sheet and operating cash flow growth, we remain well-positioned to execute on our strategy, and we are confident in the long-term growth and profitability profile of Certara. We expect foreign exchange impact and softness in regulatory services to continue in the back half of the year, and we are adjusting our 2022 full year guidance accordingly.” said Andrew Schemick, chief financial officer.

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $82.8 million, representing growth of 18% over the second quarter of 2021. Excluding $7.0 million revenue from Pinnacle 21, which was acquired in late 2021, revenue increased $5.7 million, or 8%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to growth in our technology-driven services and software product offerings from strong renewal rates, client expansion, and new customers. The increase was partially offset by the negative impact on our revenue from fluctuation in the foreign currency exchange rates.

On a constant currency basis, total revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $84.8 million, representing growth of 21% over the second quarter of 2021. Excluding $7.0 million of revenue from Pinnacle 21, the revenue on a constant currency basis increased $7.7 million, or 11%. Please see note (1) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on constant currency revenue.

Total cost of revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $35.2 million, an increase of $7.7 million from $27.5 million in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $4.2 million increase in employee-related costs resulting from billable headcount growth, a $1.7 million increase in intangible assets amortization, a $1.2 million increase in stock-based compensation cost, and a $0.5 million increase related to cost of licenses.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2022 were $43.4 million, an increase of $6.1 million from $37.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $5.2 million increase in employee related costs, a $0.8 million increase in stock-based compensation costs, a $0.7 million increase in professional costs, and a $0.9 million increase in amortization of intangible assets, partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in transaction cost related to public stock offering costs, and a $0.8 million increase in capitalized research and development costs.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.6 million, compared to a net loss of $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. The $2.3 million increase in net income was primarily due to a $12.7 million increase in total revenue, a $2.7 million increase in foreign currency gain, and a $2.5 million decrease in interest expense, partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in cost of revenue, a $6.1 million increase in operating expenses, and a $1.9 million increase in tax expense.

Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter 2022 was $0.00, as compared to $(0.02) in the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2022 was $28.0 million compared to $25.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, representing 9% growth. See note (2) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $14.6 million compared to $11.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter 2022 was $0.09 compared to $0.07 for the second quarter of 2021. See note (3) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share.

A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains “non-GAAP measures” that are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the Company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings per share, and constant currency (“CC”) revenue, which are not recognized terms under GAAP. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or GAAP diluted earnings per share or revenue as measures of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of its business. The presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.

You should refer to the footnotes below as well as the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release below for a further explanation of these measures and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures in specific periods to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP for those periods.

Management uses various financial metrics, including total revenues, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), and certain non-GAAP measures, including those discussed above, to measure and assess the performance of the Company’s business, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to make certain compensation decisions, and to compare the Company’s performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. In addition, management believes these metrics provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s business, as they remove the effect of certain non-cash expenses and other items not indicative of its ongoing operating performance.

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings per share, and CC revenue are helpful to investors, analysts, and other interested parties because they can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical periods. In addition, each of these measures is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate and assess performance. Furthermore, our business has operations outside the United States that are conducted in local currencies. As a result, the comparability of the financial results reported in U.S. dollars is affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We adjust revenues for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. and we believe it is helpful for investors to present operating results on a comparable basis period over period to evaluate its underlying performance.

Please note that the Company has not reconciled the adjusted EBITDA or adjusted diluted earnings per share forward-looking guidance included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to costs related to acquisitions, financings, and employee stock compensation programs, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

(1) CC revenue excludes the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations by assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates used for translation. Current periods revenue reported in currencies other than U.S. Dollars are converted into USD at the average exchange rates in effect for the comparable prior periods.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA represents net income excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.

(3) Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of equity-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition and integration expense, and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance as well as income tax provision adjustment for such charges.

In evaluating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation and this presentation should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual items.
