VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 14, 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 June 30, 2024.

Hamed Shahbazi, Founder and CEO of WELL, commented, "The second quarter of 2024 exceeded expectations, showcasing the strength of our technology-driven care platforms. We are very pleased to report 42% year-over-year revenue growth, driven by accelerated organic growth of 21% which includes contribution from our absorption program where we recruit clinics to our network for nominal cost. This marks our 22nd consecutive record-breaking revenue quarter, highlighting our sustained momentum. We are proud to once again improve our annual revenue guidance to $970 million to $990 million and report that we are on track to achieve one billion in revenues by the end of 2024 if we include acquisitions that are currently in our acquisition pipeline. Additionally, we are maintaining our guidance on Adjusted EBITDA in the upper range of $125 million to $130 million despite facing additional costs as a result of our projection of materially reduced share issuances for stock-based compensation. We remain focused on enhancing profitability and capital efficiency and continue to project a 30% year-over-year increase in free cash flow to shareholders in 2024. Our strong organic growth and healthy cash flows increasingly allow us to fund acquisitions, earn-outs, and employee incentives with cash. We are still on track to deliver record revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Net Income in 2024, while increasing cash flows, reducing debt, improving leverage, lowering share issuances, and decreasing earn-out payments."

Mr. Shahbazi further added, "As of the end of Q2-2024, WELL proudly supported a network of over 3,900 providers and clinicians delivering care through our physical and virtual clinics. Our Canadian clinic transformation program continues to drive efficiencies in our clinics systemwide while driving enhanced organic growth. The clinics that have recently joined our network under our M&A or absorption programs are improving in terms of their overall operations and profitability. This success is driven by our focus on cost optimization, digital workflow integration, patient engagement technologies, and the implementation of advanced AI tools such as the ambient AI scribe and various co-pilot technologies powered by our partner HEALWELL AI.  We remain committed to empowering healthcare professionals with the latest in cutting-edge technology."

Eva Fong, WELL's Chief Financial Officer, added, "I am proud to announce that during Q2 2024 we paid down $14 million in debt and reduced our leverage ratio to 2.67x for bank debt and 3.45x for all debt including convertible debentures. I'm also pleased to report that we achieved positive IFRS net income in Q2 2024, and notably, our net income remains positive even if we exclude the unrealized gains from our investments in HEALWELL AI. Much of our progress is due to the comprehensive cost-cutting program that was implemented earlier this year that has significantly strengthened our operational efficiency and generated substantial annualized cost savings. In Q2-2024, we generated a record $35.2 million in cash flow from operating activities. In addition to these substantial savings and strong cash flows, this fiscal year we plan to reduce our yearly share dilution to its lowest level ever since being launched as a company. The Company is in an excellent position to continue funding its organic growth and future acquisition plans through cash flows from operations."

On April 30, 2024, the Company announced a five-year collaboration with Microsoft to enhance digital healthcare across North America, integrating Microsoft's cloud and AI with WELL's platform. This partnership focuses on elevating WELL's scalability and operational efficiency, aiming to transform healthcare delivery for large enterprises, including the public sector. The collaboration will also modernize WELL's cloud infrastructure, optimize costs, ensure data security, and integrate Azure OpenAI Service to advance healthcare solutions.

On May 2, 2024, the Company announced the launch of the second generation WELL AI Decision Support ("WAIDS"), featuring advanced chronic disease screening for conditions like diabetes and hypertension. This enhanced WAIDS version facilitates patient risk stratification and expands its disease detection capabilities. Powered by HEALWELL AI, the technology aids clinicians in decision-making, addressing chronic diseases that significantly impact Canadians.

On June 1, 2024, the Company completed the purchase to acquire all primary care medical clinics operated by Shoppers Drug Mart Inc. ("Shoppers") under "The Health Clinic by Shoppers™" brand. The acquisition included 10 clinics, with over 35 physicians, located in British Columbia and Ontario.

Events Subsequent to June 30, 2024:

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.

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 initiative aims to assist cardiologists in identifying high-risk patients, enhancing early detection and management of CVD.

Outlook:

The Company aims to pursue capital-efficient growth opportunities while effectively managing costs to deliver robust growth and sustained cash flow to shareholders.

This approach will enable the Company to use business cash flows for debt reduction and minimizing share issuance.

Footnotes:

  1. Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios.
    In addition to results reported in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental indicators of its financial and operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. 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 Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Share 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, non-controlling interests, and revenue precluded from recognition under IFRS 15 that relates to certain patient services revenue that the Company believes should be recognized as revenue based on its contractual relationships. 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.
    EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (i) less net rent expense on premise leases considered to be finance leases under IFRS and (ii) before transaction, restructuring, and integration costs, time-based earn-out expense, change in fair value of investments, share of loss of associates, foreign exchange gain/loss, and stock-based compensation expense, (iii) revenue precluded from recognition under IFRS 15 that relates to certain patient services revenue that the Company believes should be recognized as revenue based on its contractual relationships, and (iv) gains/losses that are not reflective of ongoing operating performance. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA a financial metric that measures cash that the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss), cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance in accordance with IFRS.
    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 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 Net income, Adjusted Net Income per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, 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. 
  2. Total Care Interactions are defined as Total Visits plus Technology Interactions plus Billed Provider Hours.
  3. Organic growth includes growth attributable to "absorptions" which are characterized by clinics acquired for nominal consideration (ie. Less than 0.02x revenues). The overall organic growth inclusive of absorptions in Q2 was 21% but would have been 16.% without absorptions.
