VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) (OTCQX: WHTCF) (the "Company" or "WELL"), a digital healthcare company focused on positively impacting health outcomes by leveraging technology to empower healthcare practitioners and their patients globally, is pleased to announce its interim consolidated financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Hamed Shahbazi, Founder and CEO of WELL, commented, "Third quarter of 2024 was one of the best quarters in the Company's history by just about every objective and important metric. WELL delivered record quarterly performances for revenue, Adj EBITDA, free cashflow, patient visits and organic growth in the third quarter. We are also pleased to report that we surpassed $1 billion in annualized revenue run-rate, one quarter ahead of our previously stated plan. Record results were driven by our Canadian Patient Services business which delivered robust revenue growth of 35% YoY. Our current pipeline of acquisitions, which includes 17 signed LOIs and definitive agreements pending close, is the strongest we've had representing over $100 million in revenues with a heavy emphasis on our Canadian lines of business. As of the end of Q3-2024, WELL proudly supports a network of over 4,000 providers and clinicians delivering care through our physical and virtual clinics. We also continue to evolve and innovate our clinical offerings and are pleased to announce that this past week we launched a new weight care and GLP-1 offering in Canada on our Tia Health virtual care platform. This is just the beginning as we are excited about innovating and delivering superior patient outcomes for Canadians in this category. I am proud to raise our 2024 annual revenue guidance to $985 to $995 million, not including any un-announced acquisitions. As we close out 2024, our focus remains on enhancing profitability as we are projecting a healthy year-over-year increase in free cash flow to shareholders this year. We are a very healthy and growing Company and getting stronger as we are on track to deliver record revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Net Income for 2024, while boosting cash flow, reducing debt, minimizing net share issuances to the lowest yearly rate ever, and reflecting significant reductions in earnout payments."

Mr. Shahbazi further added, "Both of WELL's US based virtual care platforms, Wisp and Circle Medical continue to outperform with Wisp experiencing 35% revenue growth in Q3-2024 versus Q3-2023 and recently successfully launching their weight care and GLP-1 offering in 20 states. Also, Circle Medical achieved 61% year-over-year quarterly revenue growth while maintaining profitability. The strategic review process, including potential sale of these two assets, is continuing, and making progress."

Eva Fong, WELL's Chief Financial Officer, added, "Earlier this year we implemented a comprehensive cost-cutting program to support our 2024 operating plan, which is contributing to our record Adjusted EBITDA results this quarter and on a YTD basis. In Q3-2024, we generated $16.2 million in Adjusted Free Cashflow(2) available to shareholders or 6.5 cents per share and our aim is to improve on this next year. Along with these savings and strong cash flows, we are on track to reduce annual share dilution to its lowest level this fiscal year, driven in part by shifting much of our earnout payment obligations to cash and transitioning some of our employee incentive programs to be more cash-based rather than relying on share-based compensation. Additionally, we plan to sustain our share buyback program as we haven't issued any new shares since beginning this program and continue to favour cash vs shares, as our Board of Directors believes the current share price does not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company. I am pleased to report that WELL is in a strong financial position and is able to continue funding organic growth and future acquisitions through cash flows from operations."

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • WELL achieved record quarterly revenue of $251.7 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 23% as compared to revenue of $204.5 million generated in Q3-2023 (or 27%(1) with reference to continuing operations). This growth was primarily driven by organic growth of 23%. Growth from acquisitions of 4% was offset by the impact from divestitures.
  • Canadian Patient Services revenue was $78.0 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 35% as compared to $57.8 million in Q3-2023.
  • U.S. Patient Services revenue was $158.2 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 21% as compared to $130.7 million in Q3-2023.
  • SaaS and Technology Services revenue from continuing businesses was $15.6 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 19% as compared to $13.1 million in Q3-2023.
  • Adjusted Gross Profit(2) was $112.3 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 19% as compared to Adjusted Gross Profit(2) of $94.2 million in Q3-2023.
  • Adjusted Gross Margin(2) percentage was 44.6% during Q3-2024 compared to Adjusted Gross Margin(2) percentage of 46.1% in Q3-2023. The decrease in Adjusted Gross Margin(2) percentage was primarily driven by the addition of recruiting revenue from the acquisition of CarePlus, which has lower margins compared to other Patient Services and SaaS and Technology Services revenue.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $32.7 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 16% as compared to Adjusted EBITDA(2) of $28.2 million in Q3-2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA to WELL shareholders(2) was $25.1 million in Q3-2024, an increase of 10% as compared to Adjusted EBITDA to WELL shareholders(2) of $22.9 million in Q3-2023.
  • Adjusted Net Income(2) was $13.0 million, or $0.05 per share in Q3-2024, as compared to Adjusted Net Income(2) of $12.9 million, or $0.05 per share in Q3-2023.

Third Quarter 2024 Patient Visit Metrics:

WELL achieved a record 1.5 million total patient visits in Q3-2024, an increase of 41% compared to Q3-2023 and representing 5.9 million total patient visits on an annualized run-rate basis.

Canadian patient visits increased 46% while US patient visits increased 35%, on a year-over-year basis. Growth in total patient visits over the past year was primary driven by organic growth, including the clinic absorption program as well as acquisitions.

Total Care Interactions were 2.2 million in Q3-2024, a year-over-year increase of 41% compared to Q3-2023 and representing 9.0 million Total Care Interactions on an annualized run-rate basis.

Third Quarter 2024 Business Highlights:

On July 10, 2024, the Company announced the approval of a historic $44 million project, Health Compass II, the largest DIGITAL project ever awarded to advance AI-powered tech enablement for care providers. This initiative, led by WELL and its consortium partners, aims to enhance AI and interoperability in Canadian healthcare. As the lead commercialization partner and first customer, WELL will provide expertise and interoperability, enabling the development of new AI tools to support healthcare providers and improve patient outcomes.

On July 17, 2024, the Company announced the launch of its AI-powered co-pilot for cardiologists, powered by HEALWELL AI, to improve the detection of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This co-pilot, an extension of the WELL AI Decision Support (WAIDS) product offering, will be deployed in WELL Diagnostic Centers, Canada's largest cardiology and medical diagnostic group, across over 40 locations in Ontario. This initiative aims to assist cardiologists in identifying high-risk patients, enhancing early detection and management of CVD.

On August 13, 2024, the Company announced that its majority-owned subsidiary, Circle Medical, surpassed a $100 million USD revenue run rate, reporting $8.87 million in revenue for July 2024, reflecting 65% year-over-year growth. Circle Medical has been profitable on an Adjusted EBITDA basis for over 2.5 years and maintains a gross margin of approximately 55%.

On August 21, 2024, the Company announced that its majority-owned subsidiary, Wisp, surpassed one million patients served and achieved a revenue run rate of over CAD$100 million, based on July 2024 results. Wisp recorded USD$6.5 million in revenue for July, reflecting 30% year-over-year growth. Wisp also launched over ten new products in 2024, expanding its offerings in fertility, menopause, and at-home testing, while preparing for additional product launches.

On September 10, 2024, the Company announced the acquisition of three primary care clinics in British Columbia and definitive agreements to acquire four diagnostic imaging clinics in Alberta. WELL also reported a Pre-Tax Unlevered ROIC of 14% for its Canadian clinics business. The Company's acquisition pipeline includes 5 signed LOIs representing $11.8 million in revenue.

Events Subsequent to September 30, 2024:

On October 17, 2024, the Company announced the launch of a comprehensive weight care vertical by its majority-owned subsidiary, Wisp. This new service provides personalized online consultations and access to four weight care solutions, including GLP-1 medications, to support women with hormonal imbalances such as perimenopause, menopause, PCOS, and endometriosis. Wisp also introduced its first over-the-counter weight-loss supplement designed to promote women's metabolic health, further expanding its menopause care offerings. Wisp now serves over 1.2 million patients as it continues to enhance its women's healthcare services.

On November 4, 2024, the Company announced the acquisition of Canadian clinical assets from Jack Nathan Medical Corp. including a network of 16 owned and operated clinics, which generated revenue of over $10 million in the past 12 months. The portfolio of owned and operated clinics is expected to operate profitably on an adjusted EBITDA basis in 2025, following immediate synergies with WELL's shared services program and application of WELL's clinic transformation program. WELL will also acquire 62 licensee clinics that generate approximately $2.2 million annually in high margin revenue and will become the model for WELL's new 'Affiliate Clinic' business stream. On closing, WELL will acquire Jack Nathan's rights to operate medical clinics in Walmart Canada stores, creating a platform to expand its network within Walmart Canada's footprint of over 400 Canadian locations.

Outlook: 

WELL anticipates maintaining its strong performance through the remainder of 2024, with a strategic focus on enhancing operations for organic growth and profitability. The company continues to pursue capital-efficient growth opportunities while effectively managing costs to deliver robust growth and sustained cash flow to shareholders. Management is pleased to update its guidance, which includes only announced acquisitions:

  • Annual revenue for 2024 is projected to be in the range of $985 million to $995 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(2) for 2024 is projected to be in the upper half of $125 million to $130 million.
  • Adjusted Free Cashflow(2) available to shareholders is expected to be approximately $55 million, before the potential impact of increases in capital expenditures in Q4 and timing of tax payments. Management believes these capital expenditures to be a prudent use of cash given WELL's strong cash flow generation.

WELL plans to advance its U.S. and Canadian Patient Services businesses through both organic and strategic growth, prioritizing capital efficiency. This approach will enable the company to optimize per share financial performance. In Canada, WELL aims to strengthen its market leadership as the nation's premier pan-Canadian clinical network, offering a highly integrated, tech-enabled outpatient healthcare system. WELL is also committed to growing its WELL Provider Solutions or WPS business both organically and inorganically and demonstrating clear leadership in the Canadian healthcare IT landscape.

Leveraging its deep technological expertise and strategic relationship with HEALWELL AI, WELL is prioritizing investments in AI technologies, with plans to continue to develop and launch innovative products and enhancements across its provider and clinic network.

To boost operational efficiency and profitability, earlier this year WELL has implemented a cost optimization program, including staff restructuring and other cost-saving measures. The company's strong organic growth and healthy cash flow position it well to continue executing its growth strategies while progressively reducing debt.

These non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA attributable to WELL Shareholders/Non-controlling interests, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income Per Share (basic and diluted). The Company believes these supplementary financial measures reflect the Company's ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in its business.

    Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin
    The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as revenue less cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted Gross Margin as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin should not be construed as an alternative for revenue or net income (loss) determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company does not present gross profit in its consolidated financial statements as it is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin are meaningful metrics that are often used by readers to measure the Company's efficiency of selling its products and services.

    Adjusted EBITDA
    The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization less (i) net rent expense on premise leases considered to be finance leases under IFRS and before (ii) transaction, restructuring, and integration costs, time-based earn-out expense, change in fair value of investments, share of income (loss) of associates, foreign exchange gain/loss, and stock-based compensation expense, and (iii) gains/losses that are not reflective of ongoing operating performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be a financial metric that measures cash flow that the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss), cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance defined under IFRS.

    Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to WELL Shareholders/Non-Controlling Interests
    The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA attributable to WELL Shareholders (or Shareholder EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Non-controlling interests as the sum of the Adjusted EBITDA for each relevant legal entity multiplied by WELL's or the non-controlling interests' equity ownership, respectively.

    Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share, Basic and Diluted
    The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss), after excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, time-based earnout expense, change in fair value of investments, share of income (loss) of associates, and non-controlling interests. The Company revised its definition of Adjusted Net Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 to exclude share of income (loss) of associates. Comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to the current period definition. Adjusted Net Income Per Share is Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average number of shares outstanding. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to analyze our results, enhance a reader's understanding of past financial performance and allow for greater understanding with respect to key metrics used by management in decision making. More specifically, the Company believes Adjusted Net Income is a financial metric that tracks the earning power of the business that is available to WELL shareholders.

    Adjusted Free Cashflow

    The Company defines Adjusted Free Cashflow as Adjusted EBITDA Attributable to Shareholders, less cash interest, less cash taxes and less capital expenditures.

    Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA attributable to WELL Shareholders/Non-controlling interests, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per Share (basic and diluted), and Adjusted Free Cashflow are not recognized measures for financial statement presentation under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings. As such, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and should be considered as supplements to, and not as substitutes for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.
