  APOLLO MEDICAL HOLDINGS ANNOUNCES SIGNING OF AGREEMENTS WITH

INDEPENDENT PRACTICE ASSOCIATION AND PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL CORPORATION

AND REPORTS RESULTS OF THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2019

 


Effect of transactions is expected to more fully integrate the financial results of

Allied Physicians of California

with Apollo Medical Holdings

 

Alhambra, CA – (PR Newswire) – May 13, 2019Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (“ApolloMed” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AMEH), an integrated population health management company, today announced the consolidated financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and reported that it has entered into a series of agreements with an affiliated independent practice association and an affiliated professional medical corporation, the effect of which is expected to more fully integrate the financial results of one of its variable interest entities into the financial results attributable to ApolloMed.

 

Transaction Agreements

 

On May 10, 2019, ApolloMed entered into a series of agreements with two of its affiliates, AP-AMH Medical Corporation, a California professional medical corporation (“AP-AMH”), and Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation, a California professional medical corporation d.b.a. Allied Pacific of California IPA (“APC”). APC is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) of the Company. AP-AMH is a newly formed entity whose sole shareholder is Thomas Lam, M.D., ApolloMed’s Chief Executive Officer. The transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements, all of which are interrelated and are required to close concurrently, include the following:

 

·

The Company has agreed to lend AP-AMH $545,000,000 pursuant to a ten-year secured loan agreement. The loan will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum simple interest, will not be prepayable (except in certain limited circumstances), will require quarterly payments of interest only, and will be secured by a first priority security interest in all of AP-AMH’s assets, including the shares of APC Series A Preferred Stock to be acquired by AP-AMH. To the extent that AP-AMH is unable to make any interest payment when due because it has received dividends on the APC Series A Preferred Stock insufficient to pay in full such interest payment, then the outstanding principal amount of the loan will be increased by the amount of any such accrued but unpaid interest, and any such increased principal amounts will bear interest at the rate of 10.75% per annum simple interest.

·

AP-AMH has agreed to purchase $545,000,000 of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued by APC to AP-AMH. Under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, AP-AMH is entitled to receive preferential, cumulative dividends that accrue on a daily basis and that are equal to the sum of (A) APC’s net income from healthcare services, plus (B) any dividends received by APC from certain of APC’s affiliated entities, less (C) any retained amounts.

·

APC has agreed to purchase $300,000,000 of the Company’s common stock. The Company has agreed to grant APC certain registration rights with respect to the Company’s common stock that APC purchases, and APC agreed to restrict its voting powers with respect to its shares.

·The Company agreed to license certain of its trademarks to AP-AMH for a fee equal to a percentage of the aggregate gross revenues of AP-AMH. The license fee is payable out of any Series A Preferred Stock dividends received by AP-AMH from APC.

·Through its subsidiary, the Company has agreed to provide certain administrative services to AP-AMH for a fee equal to a percentage of the aggregate gross revenues of AP-AMH. The administrative fee also is payable out of any APC Series A Preferred Stock dividends received by AP-AMH from APC.

 

The closing of the foregoing transactions is currently expected to occur in the third quarter and is subject to, in addition to customary closing conditions, the receipt by each of the Company and APC of a fairness opinion from their respective financial advisors, the Company having obtained a loan to provide funds in an amount sufficient to allow the Company to fund its loan to AP-AMH, AP-AMH having completed its due diligence of APC, and the Company having completed a tax analysis of the foregoing transactions, with the results of that analysis being satisfactory to the Company.

 

 

 

 

Financial Summary for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2019 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2018:

 

  § Total revenue of $95.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared to total revenue of $123.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of 23%.

 

  § Loss from operations of $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared to income from operations of $22.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

 

 

 

 

§ Net income attributable to Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. of $0.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 as compared to net income of $2.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of 95%.

 

 

§ As of March 31, 2019, the Company had total assets of $520.9 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $93.0 million.

“Our 2019 outlook remains positive despite the decrease in both revenue and profitability for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Our revenues were impacted by a technical issue in the payment and processing systems of one of our payors. Unfortunately, the payor’s issues resulted in a decrease in our revenue of approximately $14.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to payments we received from that payor in the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The payor’s issues have now been remediated and, as of April 1, 2019, that payor has commenced making monthly payments to us of approximately $8.3 million, compared to monthly payments of $7.3 million made by that payor in 2018,” said Kenneth Sim, M.D., Executive Chairman of ApolloMed. Dr. Sim further noted, “During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, APC made an investment in its physicians in the form of performance based and retention bonuses totaling $10 million.”

 

“The United States healthcare system is undergoing a seismic shift towards population-based primary care models and we are well-positioned with our physicians to capitalize on this shift by providing high-quality medical care, population health management, and care coordination for patients,” stated Dr. Sim. “Healthcare has a critical need to transition from a volume-based approach to a value-based approach, which is less about fee-for-service and more about collaboration and prevention. As we move forward in 2019, we are focused on external growth through the continuous evaluation of our acquisitions pipeline and on internal growth through our continued investments in talent and infrastructure. We also continue to evaluate financing alternatives in the debt and equity capital markets to fund our growth. Demonstrating our continued commitment to the growth of our company, we are proud to announce the signing of a series of agreements, the effect of which is to more fully integrate the financial results of APC with ApolloMed in future periods.”

Note About Consolidated Entities

 

The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent equity ownership interests (including certain VIEs) in the Company’s consolidated entities. The amount of net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

 

Note About Stockholders’ Equity, Certain Treasury Stock and Earnings Per Share

 

As of the date of this press release, 480,212 shares of ApolloMed’s common stock to be issued as part of the merger (the “Merger”) involving ApolloMed and Network Medical Management (“NMM”) in 2017 are subject to ApolloMed receiving from those former NMM shareholders a properly completed letter of transmittal (and related exhibits) before such former NMM shareholders may receive their pro rata portion of ApolloMed common stock and warrants. Pending such receipt, such former NMM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the Merger. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given that the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and the Company is legally obligated to issue these shares under the terms of the Merger.

 

APC, a VIE of the Company, owns 1,775,561 shares of ApolloMed’s common stock that are legally issued and outstanding but are excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as such shares are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate the Company’s earnings per share.
