iCAD Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Financial Results

NASHUA, N.H., March 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iCAD, Inc. (Nasdaq:ICAD), an industry-leading provider of advanced image analysis, workflow solutions and radiation therapy for the early identification and treatment of cancer, today reported financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015.

2015 Highlights:

  • Total revenue of $41.6 million
  • Cancer Detection revenue of $19.2 million, an increase of 3.4% year-over-year, including 11.3% product revenue growth
  • 34 Xoft Axxent system placements, including 14 IORT systems
  • Gross margin of 70.6%, a decline of 50 basis points year-over-year
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $3.9 million, or 9.4% of revenue
  • Ended year with $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and no debt


“In 2015 we delivered growth in our Cancer Detection and breast IORT businesses, offset by a decline in our skin electronic brachytherapy business related to ongoing reimbursement uncertainty,” said Ken Ferry, Chief Executive Officer. “Despite a decline in total revenue, we maintained gross margin above 70%, generated positive EBITDA, and ended the year with a cash position of $15.3 million. As we look to 2016, we expect the momentum in our Cancer Detection business to continue with PowerLook upgrades, iReveal breast density products, and the international launch of our breast tomosynthesis cancer detection solution in March at the European Congress of Radiology. This will be followed by the potential FDA approval and U.S. launch of this solution in the third quarter, which we expect will be a strong growth driver. The outlook for the breast IORT business is also positive, with incremental growth in system placements and utilization driven by increased awareness of the procedure, maturing and additional clinical data, as well as anticipated regulatory approvals and distributor partnerships for new international markets.”

Mr. Ferry added, “In 2016 we hope to make progress on reimbursement for electronic skin brachytherapy in the U.S., which continues to represent a large potential market opportunity for the Company. We continue to engage with the Medicare Administrative Contractors in support of broader reimbursement coverage and we are in the early stages of collecting and analyzing reimbursement claims made by our customers under the new CPT 3 code for the procedure that went into effect on January 1, 2016. In addition, given the reimbursement environment, we plan to introduce several new enhancements to our Xoft Skin eBx system and software early in the second quarter aimed at enhancing workflow efficiency for the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer. Longer-term, we remain focused on clinical studies that will provide data in support of a CPT 1 code for electronic skin brachytherapy, which we anticipate submitting for review by the American Medical Association in the first half of 2017.”

Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Results

Revenue: Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 42% to $7.6 million from $13.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, reflecting a 43% decrease in product revenue and a 42% decrease in service revenue. The decrease in the Company’s revenue in the fourth quarter was primarily driven by the negative impact of the general uncertainty related to reimbursement for non-melanoma skin cancer treatment in the United States. The decrease was also driven by lower MRI-CAD product sales due to the Company’s exclusive distribution partner exercising their right to a fully paid-up license to distribute the software in August 2015. This provided the Company with a cash payment of $2 million during the third quarter of 2015 that will be amortized over the term of the contract through July 2017. Service revenue for the fourth quarter of 2015 and 2014 was approximately 65% of total revenues.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES TO COMPARABLE GAAP MEASURES
 (Unaudited, in thousands, except per share amounts)

The following is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company to describe the Company's financial results determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying performance of the Company's business operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. However, management believes that in order to properly understand the Company's short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and/or impact on continuing operations. Management also uses results of operations before such items to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in the Company's ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of the Company's ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or reduce management's ability to make useful forecasts. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance.  In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information helpful in analyzing the Company's financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to its peers and competitors.

Management defines "Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA" as the sum of GAAP net income (loss) before provision for taxes, acquisition-related expenses, total other (income) expense, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, severance, gain on sale, loss on warrant, loss on extinguishment of debt, amortization of acquired intangibles, patent litigation and recall costs, contingent consideration, indemnification, asset and goodwill impairment charges.  Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an important indicator of the Company's operational strength and performance of its business and a good measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Company's overall financial performance.

Management defines "Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (loss)" as the sum of GAAP net income (loss) before provision for the gain on sale of asset, severance, transaction, patent litigation and recall costs, contingent consideration, indemnification, loss on extinguishment of debt and asset and goodwill impairment charges.  Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an important indicator of the Company's operational strength and performance of its business and a good measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Company's overall financial performance.

Management excludes each of the items identified below from the applicable non-GAAP financial measure referenced above for the reasons set forth with respect to that excluded item:

  • Stock-based compensation expense: excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business, and also because the total amount of expense is partially outside of the Company's control as it is based on factors such as stock price volatility and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our performance during the period in which the expense is incurred.
  • Amortization of acquired intangibles: acquisition-related expenses are reported at the time acquisition costs are incurred, and purchased intangibles are amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, these items are not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations. Thus, including such charges does not accurately reflect the performance of the Company's ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred.
  • Interest expense: The Company excludes interest expense which includes interest from the facility agreement, interest on settlement obligations and interest on capital leases, from its non GAAP Adjusted EBITDA calculation.
  • Severance relates to costs incurred due to the termination of certain employees. The Company provides compensation to certain employees as an accommodation upon termination of employment without cause. Management believes that excluding severance costs from operating results provides investors with a better means for measuring current Company performance.
  • Loss on sale of assets relates to the loss incurred on the disposal of assets.  The Company excludes this non-cash charge as this item is not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations.
  • Loss on extinguishment of debt: relates to the extinguishment of a portion of the $15 million debt facility agreement.  It is excluded as this is an expense that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business.
  • Goodwill and long-lived impairment: is excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business.
  • Gain (loss) on warrant: The Company issued warrants in connection with the January 2012 financing and the value changes according to fair value.  It is excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business, also because the total amount of gain or loss is partially outside of the Company's control as it is based on factors such as stock price volatility and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our performance during the period in which the gain or loss is incurred.  The warrants were exercised in April 2014.
  • Litigation and settlement related: These expenses consist primarily of settlement, legal and other professional fees related to litigation. The Company excludes these costs from its non-GAAP measures primarily because the Company believes that these costs have no direct correlation to the core operations of the Company.
  • Acquisition related: relates to professional service fees due to the acquisitions of VuComp. The Company does not consider these acquisition-related costs to be related to the organic continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired assets.
  • Goodwill and long-lived impairment: is excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business.


On occasion in the future, there may be other items, such as significant asset impairments, restructuring charges or significant gains or losses from contingencies that the Company may exclude if it believes that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.
