BioScrip Reports Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results

BioScrip, Inc. (NASDAQ:BIOS) (“the Company”) today announced 2015 third quarter financial results.

Third Quarter Highlights

  • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $6.2 million, primarily due to the early positive contributions of BioScrip’s previously announced plan to reduce costs and focus on its core infusion business;
  • Revenue from continuing operations of $247.2 million, an increase of $15.8 million, or 6.8%, over the prior year period, driven by strong product revenue growth in core and chronic infusion therapies;
  • Gross profit was $63.1 million, an increase of 3.9% over $60.8 million in the third quarter of last year. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit for the quarter was 25.5%, compared to 26.3% over the prior year period. On a sequential basis, gross profit improved 30 basis points; and
  • Net loss from continuing operations was $24.2 million, or $0.38 loss per share.

“Our core infusion business delivered improved performance through strong revenue growth, reduced expenses and increased operating cash flow,” said Rick Smith, Chief Executive Officer of BioScrip. “We were also able to realize meaningful cost savings through a range of targeted initiatives, including workforce reductions, supply chain optimization and the successful sale of our non-core PBM business. We are pleased with the early progress we have made on our Financial Improvement Plan, and expect to see additional benefits through the remainder of the year.”

As the Company stated in August 2015, its Financial Improvement Plan is focused on reducing costs, improving margins and reorganizing the Company’s structure around a more focused core infusion business. During the quarter the Company:

  • Substantially completed the announced targeted workforce reduction and remains on track to deliver the expected $19 million in annual cost savings;
  • Made progress towards additional supply chain programs that are expected to add $3 million in annual savings in 2016;
  • Completed the sale of the non-core PBM business for $25 million in gross cash proceeds;
  • Initiated programs to take place January 1, 2016 that are expected to reduce corporate costs by $5 million annually;
  • Initiated cost reduction programs totaling $5 million in projected annual cost savings to take effect in January 2016 from other targeted areas including nursing, travel, office expense, and technology enhanced applications; and
  • Continued to transition certain chronic, non-core infusion therapies to various alliance pharmacy providers, which, when fully realized, are anticipated to improve Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $4 million annually.

Results of Operations

As a result of the previously announced sale of the Company’s non-core PBM business, the Company’s financial statements concerning PBM are presented as “discontinued operations” on the Consolidated Financial Statements for all periods presented.

Third Quarter 2015 Versus Third Quarter 2014

Revenue from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $247.2 million, compared to $231.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $15.8 million or 6.8%. This revenue increase was due primarily to a $14.4 million increase in product revenues associated with chronic, nutrition and other therapies.

Consolidated gross profit for the third quarter of 2015 was $63.1 million, or 25.5% of revenue, compared to $60.8 million, or 26.3% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2014. On a sequential basis, gross profit improved 30 basis points.

During the third quarter of 2015, Infusion Services Adjusted EBITDA was $12.4 million. Including corporate expenses, total company consolidated Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $6.2 million.

Interest expense in the third quarter of 2015 was $9.5 million, down slightly from $9.6 million in the third quarter of 2014.

During the quarter, the Company recorded a $13.9 million pre-tax goodwill impairment charge related to the completion of its goodwill valuation initiated during the second quarter of 2015. The Company also incurred $4.0 million of pre-tax restructuring and other expenses primarily related to its ongoing Financial Improvement Plan.

Income tax benefit for continuing operations in the third quarter of 2015 was $4.6 million, compared to income tax expense of $1.9 million in the prior year period.

Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2015 was $24.2 million, or $0.38 loss per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $39.2 million, or $0.57 loss per diluted share in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $69.0 million of liquidity, which is comprised of $29.4 million of cash and $39.6 million of undrawn capacity available on its revolving credit facility. The Company has improved net Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) by six days from 51 days at the end of 2014 to 45 days through the first nine months of 2015. The Company has improved its cash flows in 2015 and expects to be operating cash flow positive in 2016.

Forward-Looking Statements – Safe Harbor

This press release includes statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements," including projections of certain measures of the Company's results of operations, projections of future levels of certain charges and expenses, and other statements regarding the Company's financial improvement plan and strategy. These statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "may," "should," "could," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "outlook," "aim," "intend," "plan," "believe," "predict," "potential," "continue" or comparable terms. Because such statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties, actual future results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include but are not limited to risks associated with: the Company's ability to continue to execute its financial improvement plan to reduce operating costs and focus its business on its Infusion Services segment; reductions in federal, state and commercial reimbursement for the Company's products and services; increased government regulation related to the health care and insurance industries; as well as the risks described in the Company's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements after the date hereof, even though the Company's situation may change in the future. All of the forward-looking statements herein are qualified by these cautionary statements.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company is also reporting Adjusted EBITDA which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute or alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as a substitute or alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity. In addition, the Company's definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by the Company, represents net income before net interest expense, loss on sale of assets, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expenses, restructuring-related expenses and investments in start-up operations. As part of restructuring, the Company may incur significant charges such as the write down of certain long−lived assets, temporary redundant expenses, retraining expenses, potential cash bonus payments and potential accelerated payments or terminated costs for certain of its contractual obligations. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information regarding the performance of our business operations and facilitates comparisons to our historical operating results. For a full reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, please see the attachment to this earnings release.
