Insights

Financial Analyst

The reported 60% year-over-year increase in fourth quarter revenue to $44.9 million, with a significant 90% increase in Telehealth revenues, is indicative of LifeMD's strong market performance and growing demand for virtual healthcare services. The expansion of the gross margin to a record 88.1% reflects operational efficiency and a favorable revenue mix, which is particularly impressive in the context of the healthcare industry where margins can be pressured by regulatory changes and reimbursement rates.

The adjusted EBITDA increase from $1.0 million to $5.5 million year-over-year suggests that the company's profitability is improving and the positive GAAP free cash flow of $3.5 million signals healthy liquidity. However, the GAAP net loss of $4.5 million warrants attention as it highlights ongoing costs that are not included in the adjusted figures. Investors should consider the sustainability of this growth, especially as the company scales up its operations.

Market Research Analyst

LifeMD's growth in Telehealth and Weight Management subscribers aligns with broader market trends where consumers are increasingly seeking digital health solutions. The company's performance, particularly the 27% year-over-year increase in telehealth subscribers, suggests that it is successfully capitalizing on this trend. LifeMD's strategic positioning as a market disruptor in telemedicine is further supported by the successful launch of its GLP-1 weight management program, which has already exceeded 22,000 subscribers.

The raised revenue guidance to at least $200 million for 2024 is a strong indicator of management's confidence in continued growth. However, it is crucial to monitor how the company will manage customer acquisition costs and maintain subscriber growth while ensuring service quality as competition in the telehealth market intensifies.

Healthcare Industry Analyst

The GLP-1 weight management program's rapid growth to over 22,000 subscribers is noteworthy in the context of the obesity epidemic and the increasing focus on non-surgical weight loss solutions. LifeMD's ability to scale this service in less than nine months demonstrates not only market demand but also operational capabilities. The telehealth platform's licensing and investment agreement with Medifast, which included a $10 million collaboration fee and a $10 million equity investment, also highlights the strategic partnerships that can provide additional capital and validation of LifeMD's business model.

Investors should assess the long-term viability of the GLP-1 program's growth trajectory, considering potential market saturation and the regulatory environment surrounding weight management pharmaceuticals.

• Fourth quarter revenue increased 60% year-over-year to $44.9 million with Telehealth revenues increasing 90% versus the year-ago period.
  
• Adjusted EPS of $0.15 per share compared with $0.02 in the year-ago period.
• Consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $5.5 million compared with $1.0 million in the year-ago period.
• Weight Management subscribers exceeded 22,000 as of year-end 2023, ahead of previous guidance.
• Telehealth subscribers grew 27% year-over-year to a record 215,000 patients at year-end 2023.
  

Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today

NEW YORK, March 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LifeMD, Inc. (Nasdaq: LFMD), a leading provider of virtual primary care, today reported financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.   

Management Commentary

“2023 was a record-setting year for LifeMD, characterized by sharp increases in revenue, telehealth subscribers and profitability. During the year, we launched our GLP-1 weight management program which has rapidly grown to become one of the leading providers of medically supported weight loss management services nationwide. In less than nine months, we scaled this business to over 22,000 subscribers and growing. Year to date in 2024, we continue to see record daily performance in the sale of new weight management subscriptions and at a rate in excess of our previous 2024 guidance. We demonstrated the tremendous value of our proprietary telehealth platform and dedicated 50-state, affiliated medical group through the execution of a substantial platform license and investment agreement with Medifast that provided LifeMD with a $10 million collaboration fee plus a $10 million equity investment,” said Justin Schreiber, Chairman and CEO of LifeMD. “Our RexMD business, once again posted double-digit revenue growth with robust contribution margins that continued to exceed 30%. Looking ahead, we are exceptionally well-positioned to meet or exceed our 2024 financial guidance while continuing to expand our position as a market leading disruptor in telemedicine.”

“We exited 2023 with the strongest financial position in our company’s history and are well capitalized to execute upon our aggressive expansion goals. Last year, we produced record cash flow from operations of approximately $9 million compared with negative operating cash flow of almost $23 million in 2022. We achieved this growth in profitability while simultaneously increasing consolidated net revenues by 28% versus the prior year. As a result of the strong performance we’ve seen across our business, led by performance in our growing GLP-1 weight management program, we are raising our 2024 revenue guidance to at least $200 million, up from previous guidance of $195 to $205 million. As this guidance implies, we expect 2024 revenue growth of at least 31% and we re-affirm guidance for adjusted EBITDA growth of 67%,” commented Marc Benathen, Chief Financial Officer of LifeMD.

About the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: 
To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS as non-GAAP financial measures to clarify and enhance an understanding of past performance. We believe that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that these financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We use certain financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) attributable to common shareholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion, financing transaction expense, non-controlling interests, foreign currency translation, inventory valuation, sales return reserves, litigation costs, loss on debt extinguishment, dividends, insurance acceptance and Sarbanes-Oxley readiness, acquisition costs, severance expenses and stock-based compensation expense. We have provided below a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss attributable to common shareholders, its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Adjusted EPS is defined as the diluted net loss attributable to LifeMD, Inc common shareholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion, financing transaction expense, non-controlling interests, foreign currency translation, inventory valuation, sales return reserves, litigation costs, loss on debt extinguishment, dividends, insurance acceptance and Sarbanes-Oxley readiness, acquisition costs, severance expenses and stock-based compensation expense. We have provided below a reconciliation of adjusted EPS to Diluted loss per share attributable to LifeMD, Inc common shareholders, its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

We believe the above financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. However, our use of the terms adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS may vary from that of others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS should not be considered as an alternative to net loss before taxes, net loss per share, operating loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of performance.
