HEALTHSTREAM, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Article 10 of Regulation S‑X. Accordingly, Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.
On February 12, 2018, the Company divested its Patient Experience (“PX”) business to Press Ganey Associates, Inc. (“Press Ganey”). The sale of the PX business resulted in the Company’s divestiture of the Company’s patient experience solutions business segment. The Company has classified the results of its previously owned PX segment as discontinued operations in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flows for all periods presented. See Note 8 for additional information.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018 (included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2019).
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”), which, among other things, requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for substantially all leases, including operating leases. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019 utilizing the modified retrospective approach such that prior year financial statements were not recast under the new standard. Adoption of this standard resulted in changes to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and accounting policies for leases but did not have an impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows. See Note 12 for additional information regarding the new standard and its impact on the Company’s Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-03, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASC 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, ASC 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The standard will be effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company will adopt this ASU on January 1, 2020 and is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND SALES COMMISSIONS
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services. ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (referred to as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 or “ASC 606”) became effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018 and required changes to the Company’s accounting policies for revenue recognition, trade and other receivables, and deferred commissions.
Revenue is recognized based on the following five-step model:
|
• |
Identification of the contract with a customer |
|
• |
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract |
|
• |
Determination of the transaction price |
|
• |
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract |
|
• |
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation |

Subscription/SaaS services revenues primarily consist of fees in consideration of providing customers access to one or more of our SaaS-based solutions and/or courseware subscriptions, as well as fees related to licensing agreements, all of which include routine customer support and technology enhancements. Revenue is generally recognized over time during the contract term beginning when the service is made available to the customer.
Professional services revenues primarily consist of fees for implementation services, custom courseware development, and training. The majority of our professional services contracts are billed in advance based on a fixed price basis, and revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed. For both subscription/SaaS services and professional services, the time between billing the customer and when performance obligations are satisfied is generally not significant.
Our contracts with customers often contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The contract price, which represents transaction price, is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on the standard list price for each product, taking into consideration certain factors, including contract length and the number of subscribers within the contract.
We receive payments from customers based on billing schedules established in our contracts. Accounts receivable - unbilled represent contract assets related to our conditional right to consideration for subscription/SaaS and professional services contracts where performance has occurred under the contract. Accounts receivable are primarily comprised of trade receivables that are recorded at the invoice amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, when the right to consideration becomes unconditional.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $
Deferred revenue represents contract liabilities that are recorded when cash payments are received or are due in advance of our satisfaction of performance obligations. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized $

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of potentially dilutive common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares are composed of incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and RSUs subject to vesting. The dilutive effect of common equivalent shares is included in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The total number of common equivalent shares excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect or contingent performance conditions was

The carrying amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate the fair value based on quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. As of September 30, 2019, the Company does not consider any of its marketable securities to be other than temporarily impaired. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not reclassify any items out of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income to net income. All investments in marketable securities are classified as current assets on the balance sheet because the underlying securities mature within one year from the balance sheet date.

Revolving Credit Facility
On December 31, 2018, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to its Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of November 24, 2014 (as amended, the “Revolving Credit Facility”), with SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”), which extended the maturity date to
The purpose of the Revolving Credit Facility is for general working capital needs, permitted acquisitions (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility), and for stock repurchase and/or redemption transactions that the Company may authorize.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain covenants that, among other things, restrict additional indebtedness, liens and encumbrances, changes to the character of the Company’s business, acquisitions, asset dispositions, mergers and consolidations, sale or discount of receivables, creation or acquisitions of additional subsidiaries, and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements.
In addition, the Revolving Credit Facility requires the Company to meet certain financial tests, including, without limitation:
• |
a funded debt leverage ratio (consolidated debt/consolidated EBITDA) of not greater than |
• |
an interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA/consolidated interest expense) of not less than |
As of September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. There were
12. LEASES
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for substantially all leases, including operating leases, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company elected to use the package of practicable expedients allowing companies to not reassess: (1) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, (2) the treatment of initial direct costs as they related to existing leases, and (3) whether existing contracts are or contain leases. The Company did not elect the use of the hindsight practical expedient but did elect the practical expedient not to separate lease components from non-lease components related to its office space leases.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company had non-cancellable operating leases for office space subject to recognition as ROU assets. Accordingly, on January 1, 2019 the Company recorded $
The Company does not have any lease contracts that contain: (1) an option to extend that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, (2) an option to terminate that the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise, or (3) an option to extend (or not to terminate) in which exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor. Additionally, the Company does not have any leases with residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. For leases already commenced, the lease term was determined to be the remaining months in the lease term as of January 1, 2019, the date of adoption. The Company has elected not to recognize leases with initial terms of one year or less on the balance sheet. Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets have been recorded based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term. Most of the Company’s lease agreements contain provisions for escalating rent payments over the terms of the leases.

HEALTHSTREAM, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The Company’s leases do not contain readily determinable implicit discount rates, and as such the Company must use its incremental borrowing rate to discount the future lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate was estimated by determining the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
The Company’s operating lease cost as presented in Other general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income was $

Non-marketable equity investments where the Company is not able to exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for using the measurement alternative for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10), became effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018 and requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward‑Looking Statements
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018, appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 25, 2019 (the “2018 Form 10-K”). Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that the Company intends to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are predictive in nature, that depend on or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions are forward-looking statements.
The Company cautions that forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
In evaluating any forward-looking statement, you should specifically consider the information regarding forward-looking statements and the information set forth under the caption Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2018 Form 10-K and the information regarding forward-looking statements and other disclosures in our 2018 Form 10-K, earnings releases and other filings with the SEC from time to time, as well as other cautionary statements contained elsewhere in this report, including the matters discussed in “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.” We undertake no obligation beyond that required by law to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

Overview
HealthStream provides workforce and provider solutions for healthcare organizations—all designed to develop the people that deliver patient care, which, in turn, supports the improvement of business and clinical outcomes. Workforce Solutions products are used by healthcare organizations to meet a broad range of their clinical development, talent management, training, certification, competency assessment, and performance appraisal needs. Provider Solutions products are used by healthcare organizations for provider credentialing, privileging, and enrollment needs. HealthStream’s customers include healthcare organizations, pharmaceutical and medical device companies, and other participants in the healthcare industry. At September 30, 2019, we had approximately 2.78 million contracted subscriptions to hStreamTM, our Platform-as-a-Service technology. hStream technology enables healthcare organizations and their respective workforces to easily connect to and gain value from the growing HealthStream ecosystem of applications, tools, and content.
On February 12, 2018, the Company divested its Patient Experience (“PX”) business to Press Ganey for $65.2 million in cash (after giving effect to the post-closing adjustment), resulting in a gain, net of tax, of $20.4 million.
Prior to the disposition of the PX business, our Patient Experience Solutions products provided our customers information about patients’ experiences and how to improve them, workforce engagement, physician relations, and community perceptions of their services. The historical financial results of the PX business for periods prior to the closing of the disposition of the PX business on February 12, 2018 are reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations. This sale of the PX business resulted in the Company’s divestiture of the patient experience solutions business segment.
Key financial indicators of operations for the third quarter of 2019 are set forth in the bullets below.
• |
Revenues of $62.5 million in the third quarter of 2019, up 4% from $59.9 million in the third quarter of 2018 |
• |
Operating income of $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, down 20% from $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2018 |

In June 2019, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Robert A. Frist, Jr., contributed 78,520 of his personally owned shares of common stock (with a value of $2.0 million) to the Company for the benefit of HealthStream employees, without any consideration paid to Mr. Frist. In connection therewith, the Company approved the grant of the same number of shares under its 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan to approximately 820 of its employees. These shares were issued in July 2019. Mr. Frist also contributed an additional 7,852 of his personally owned shares to cover the Company’s costs associated with such grants, such as administrative expenses and employer payroll taxes. Together, these grants resulted in the Company recognizing approximately $2.0 million stock based compensation expense and $0.2 million payroll tax expense in the second quarter of 2019. The only shareholder who was diluted from these transactions was Mr. Frist. See Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included within this report, for additional information.
On January 10, 2019, the Company acquired the outstanding equity of Providigm, LLC (“Providigm”), a Denver-based company focused on quality assurance and performance improvement in healthcare, primarily serving skilled nursing facilities, for $18.0 million in cash. In addition, up to an additional $500,000 in cash may be paid by the Company contingent upon the performance of Providigm during an 18-month period following closing. The results of operations for Providigm have been included in the HealthStream Workforce Solutions segment of our financial statements from the date of acquisition. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included within this report, for additional information.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions during the preparation of our financial statements. We believe the estimates, judgments, and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments, or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected.
The accounting policies and estimates that we believe are the most critical in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
|
• |
Revenue recognition |
|
• |
Accounting for income taxes |
|
• |
Software development costs |
|
• |
Goodwill, intangibles, and other long-lived assets |
|
• |
Allowance for doubtful accounts |
In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by US GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas where management’s judgment in selecting among available alternatives would not produce a materially different result. See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2018 Form 10-K and the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein, which contain additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures required by US GAAP. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those reported in our 2018 Form 10-K. Note 2 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements summarizes new accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that has been recently adopted by the Company, or not yet adopted by the Company, and our evaluation of such accounting guidance and the anticipated impact of such guidance (if known) on the Company.

Revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $1.9 million, or 4%, to $51.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $49.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Revenue growth of $1.9 million included a $1.6 million increase in revenue from our platform and content subscriptions, which was offset by a reduction in revenue from our legacy resuscitation products. Legacy resuscitation products were $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $15.0 million in the third quarter of 2018. The acquisition of Providigm, which was completed in January 2019, also added $1.9 million of revenue to the third quarter of 2019.
Revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $630,000, or 6%, to $11.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Revenue growth was primarily a result of new Verity subscriptions and professional services for client implementations, but was partially offset by a reduction in other professional services from Morrisey Associates, Inc., which we acquired in August 2016.
Cost of Revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization). Cost of revenues increased $246,000, or 1%, to $25.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 41% and 42% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Cost of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions decreased $294,000 to $21.5 million and approximated 42% and 44% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease is primarily associated with a reduction in royalties resulting from lower revenue from our legacy resuscitation products, but was partially offset by higher personnel costs primarily from the Providigm acquisition. Cost of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $540,000 to $3.8 million and approximated 33% and 30% of HealthStream Provider Solutions revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily associated with higher personnel costs due to additions to staffing.
Product Development. Product development expenses increased $595,000, or 9%, to $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Product development expenses as a percentage of revenues were 12% and 11% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Product development expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $485,000 to $5.8 million and approximated 11% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily due to the Providigm acquisition and higher personnel costs. Product development expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $110,000 to $1.4 million and approximated 12% of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily a result of lower capitalized software development associated with the Verity product.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses, including personnel costs, increased $444,000, or 5%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Sales and marketing expenses were 14% of revenues for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Sales and marketing expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $410,000 to $7.3 million and approximated 14% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily due to higher personnel costs and the Providigm acquisition. Sales and marketing expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $8,000 to $1.4 million and approximated 13% of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The unallocated portion of sales and marketing expenses increased $26,000 to $271,000 compared to the prior year period.
Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million, or 11%, to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Other general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 16% and 15% of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Other general and administrative expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $733,000 to $3.4 million and approximated 7% and 5% of HealthStream Workforce Solutions revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily due to higher personnel costs, the Providigm acquisition and, software expense. Other general and administrative expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $66,000 to $960,000 and approximated 8% of HealthStream Provider Solutions revenues for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The unallocated corporate portion of other general and administrative expenses increased $211,000 to $5.7 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher personnel costs.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $7.1 million and $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase resulted from an increase in depreciation of property and equipment, primarily related to our new corporate headquarters, as well as amortization of capitalized software and intangible assets.
Other Income (Loss), Net. Other income (loss), net was income of $853,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to loss of $548,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is due to the $1.3 million decline in the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Income Tax Provision. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes from continuing operations of $1.1 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The Company’s effective tax rate was 25% and 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from Continuing Operations. Income from continuing operations was $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2019, up from $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2018. Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $0.11 and $0.09 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations was $251,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to zero for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Net Income. Net income increased $676,000, or 22%, to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Earnings per diluted share were $0.11 and $0.09 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure which we define as net income before interest, income taxes, stock based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and changes in fair value of non-marketable equity investments) from continuing operations increased 3% to $11.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $676,000 to $11.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for our reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable measures under US GAAP.

Revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $16.7 million, or 12%, to $157.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $141.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Revenue growth in 2019 was positively impacted by higher revenues from our legacy resuscitation products, which were $46.3 million in the first nine months of 2019 compared to $40.5 million in the first nine months of 2018, and growth in our platform and content subscriptions. The acquisition of Providigm in January 2019 also added $5.2 million of revenue to the first nine months of 2019.
Revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $2.9 million, or 10%, to $33.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $30.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Revenue growth in 2019 was primarily a result of new Verity subscriptions and professional services for client implementations.
Cost of Revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization). Cost of revenues increased $8.4 million, or 12%, to $79.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $70.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 41% for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Cost of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $6.9 million to $67.6 million and approximated 43% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily associated with increased royalties paid by us resulting from growth in courseware subscription revenues, higher personnel costs, the Providigm acquisition, and stock based compensation related to the stock awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Cost of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $1.5 million to $11.4 million and approximated 34% and 32% of HealthStream Provider Solutions revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily due to increased personnel costs over the prior year period.
Product Development. Product development expenses increased $2.7 million, or 14%, to $21.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $19.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Product development expenses as a percentage of revenues were 11% of revenues for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Product development expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $2.6 million to $18.0 million and approximated 11% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily due to higher personnel costs, the Providigm acquisition and stock based compensation related to the stock awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Product development expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $96,000 to $3.8 million and approximated 11% and 12% of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses, including personnel costs, increased $1.8 million, or 7%, to $28.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $26.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Sales and marketing expenses were 15% of revenues for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
Sales and marketing expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $1.7 million to $23.1 million and approximated 15% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The increase is primarily due to higher sales commissions, consistent with the increase in revenues, stock based compensation related to the stock awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2019, and the Providigm acquisition. Sales and marketing expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions increased $180,000 to $4.4 million and approximated 13% and 14% of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in amount is primarily associated with the higher personnel and related costs. The unallocated portion of sales and marketing expenses decreased $93,000 to $810,000 compared to the prior year period primarily due to lower personnel costs.
21
Other General and Administrative Expenses. Other general and administrative expenses increased $5.5 million, or 22%, to $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $24.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Other general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 16% and 14% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Other general and administrative expenses for HealthStream Workforce Solutions increased $3.3 million to $10.2 million and approximated 6% and 5% of revenues for HealthStream Workforce Solutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily due to higher personnel costs primarily from the Providigm acquisition, increased software expenses, and higher facilities costs. Other general and administrative expenses for HealthStream Provider Solutions decreased $750,000 to $2.7 million and approximated 8% and 11% of revenues for HealthStream Provider Solutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease is primarily associated with lower contract labor expense compared to the prior year period. The unallocated corporate portion of other general and administrative expenses increased $3.0 million to $17.4 million compared to the first nine months of 2018 primarily due to increases in software expenses as well as increases to personnel and related costs over the prior year period.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $2.5 million, or 14%, to $20.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $18.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase resulted from an increase in amortization of capitalized software as well as depreciation of property and equipment, primarily related to our new corporate headquarters.
Other Income, Net. Other income, net was $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $241,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase is due to the $1.3 million decline in the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2018 coupled with higher interested income from cash and investments in marketable securities.
Income Tax Provision. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $3.3 million and $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded excess tax benefits from stock based awards of $130,000 and $692,000, respectively, as a component of the provision for income taxes, which reduced the effective tax rate compared to the statutory tax rates.
Income from Continuing Operations. Income from continuing operations was $10.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $10.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $0.33 and $0.32 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations was $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $19.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Income from discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was the result of the release of escrow funds related to the sale of the PX business. The gain, net of tax, of $19.1 million recognized by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 related to the sale of the PX business which occurred on February 12, 2018.
Net Income. Net income decreased to $12.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Earnings per diluted share were $0.37 per share and $0.91 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This decrease in net income and EPS (diluted) was attributable to the gain from the sale of the PX business which was primarily recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 11% to $35.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $32.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased $23.9 million to $37.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $61.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease resulted from the factors mentioned above. See Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for our reconciliation of this calculation to measures under US GAAP.
Discontinued Operations
On February 12, 2018, the Company divested its PX business to Press Ganey for $65.2 million in cash (after giving effect to the post-closing working capital adjustment). This sale of the PX business resulted in the divestiture of our patient experience solutions business segment. We recorded a gain on sale, net of tax, of $20.4 million, of which $19.0 million was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2018 and $1.4 million was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. With the proceeds of this sale, our Board of Directors declared a $1.00 per common share special cash dividend, which was paid on April 3, 2018 to shareholders of record on March 6, 2018.
22
We have classified the results of our PX segment as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flows for all periods presented. See Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for additional information.
Other Developments
Our legacy agreements with Laerdal (the “Legacy Agreements”) for the HeartCode and Resuscitation Quality Improvement (“RQI”) products expired pursuant to their terms on December 31, 2018. Revenues associated with sales of HeartCode and RQI products pursuant to the Legacy Agreements have been significant in recent years, although margins on such products have been lower than HealthStream’s average margin. In 2018, revenue generated by HeartCode and RQI products pursuant to the Legacy Agreements was $54.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as noted above, we recorded revenue of $46.3 million related to HeartCode and RQI products under the Legacy Agreements compared to $40.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2019, as noted above, we recorded revenue of $13.4 million related to HeartCode and RQI products under the Legacy Agreements compared to $15.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. We expect revenue from HeartCode and RQI products generated pursuant to the Legacy Agreements to continue to decline sequentially each quarter through the remainder of 2019 and throughout 2020 and that revenue to be generated from such products during the fourth quarter of 2019 to approximate $12.6 million. We also continue to expect revenue from HeartCode and RQI products sold pursuant to the Legacy Agreements to be zero in the first quarter of 2021.
On December 6, 2018, we announced a new agreement with RQI Partners, a joint venture between Laerdal and the American Heart Association. This agreement with RQI Partners was not an extension or renewal of the expired Legacy Agreements with Laerdal and should not be construed as such. Under our agreement with RQI Partners, HealthStream will neither market nor sell HeartCode or RQI. Our RQI Partners agreement provides for continuity of service for customers that desire to purchase HeartCode or RQI from RQI Partners after December 31, 2018 and receive it via the HealthStream Learning Center. RQI Partners will remit a fee to us when new sales of HeartCode and RQI are delivered via the HealthStream Learning Center. This fee will not be sufficient to supplant the revenue runout associated with the Legacy Agreements, and no material revenues have been recognized under this agreement as of September 30, 2019.
We remain actively engaged in efforts to broaden the scope and utilization of our simulation-related offerings to include a range of clinical competencies that extend beyond resuscitation, and we intend to bring to market a broadened scope of simulation-based offerings, including resuscitation programs. On January 17, 2019, as part of a seven-year collaboration agreement with the American Red Cross which spans to 2026, we announced the launch of the American Red Cross Resuscitation Suite. We have now begun efforts to market, sell, and deliver our new resuscitation offering, which includes the American Red Cross Resuscitation Suite and Innosonian skills. Several customers have been implemented, and we recognized a de minimis amount of revenue from our new resuscitation offering during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. We believe our efforts to market, sell, and deliver the American Red Cross Resuscitation Suite, along with efforts to bring additional simulation-related offerings to market, have the potential to give rise to additional and higher margin opportunities than those that existed under the Legacy Agreements. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts, and to the extent that new simulation-based or other solutions do not generate revenue and/or earnings in a manner that supplants the impact of the Legacy Agreements, our revenue and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report presents adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures used by management in analyzing our financial results and ongoing operational performance.
In order to better assess the Company’s financial results, management believes that net income before interest, income taxes, stock based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and changes in fair value of non-marketable equity investments (“adjusted EBITDA”) is a useful measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because adjusted EBITDA reflects net income adjusted for certain non-cash and non-operating items. Management also believes that adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is a useful measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because such measure excludes the results of operations of the PX business that we no longer own and the gain on sale in connection with the sale of such business in February 2018 and thus reflects the Company’s ongoing business operations and assists in comparing the Company’s results of operations between periods. We also believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are useful to many investors to assess the Company’s ongoing results from current operations. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as measures of financial performance under GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP, such non-GAAP financial measures are susceptible to varying calculations. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
23
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance which are prepared in accordance with US GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and have limitations as analytical tools.
A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is set forth below (in thousands).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased by $22.7 million, or 76% to $52.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $29.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase compared to the prior year period primarily resulted from changes in receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and current liabilities. The number of days sales outstanding (“DSO”) was 40 days for the third quarter of 2019 compared to 46 days for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in DSO primarily relates to improved collections as compared to the prior year period. The Company calculates DSO by dividing the average accounts receivable balance for the quarter by average daily revenues for the quarter. The Company’s primary sources of cash were receipts generated from the sales of our products and services. The primary uses of cash to fund operations included personnel expenses, sales commissions, royalty payments, payments for contract labor and other direct expenses associated with delivery of our products and services, and general corporate expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $52.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations of $47.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company acquired Providigm for $18.0 million, invested in marketable securities of $62.7 million, purchased property and equipment of $21.5 million, made payments for capitalized software development of $11.2 million, and invested $3.3 million in non-marketable equity investments. These uses of cash were partially offset by $58.6 million in maturities of marketable securities and $6.0 million in proceeds from the sale of its PX business segment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company divested its PX business segment, receiving proceeds from the sale of $57.8 million and had maturities of marketable securities of $59.5 million. These sources of cash were partially offset by purchases of $4.3 million of property and equipment, $8.0 million for capitalized software development, $0.9 million in non-marketable equity investments and $57.1 million for investments in marketable securities.
Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $907,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $30.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the uses of cash included the payment of employee payroll taxes in relation to the vesting of restricted share units (“RSU”) and stock awards of $1.0 million and $335,000, respectively. In this regard, the Company net-share settled the employee RSUs by withholding shares with value equivalent to the employee’s minimum statutory obligation for the applicable income and other employment taxes. The uses of cash for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 also included $38,000 of payments of earn-outs related to prior acquisitions in both periods and also included cash dividend
24
payments of $53,000 and $32.4 million, respectively. The source of cash from financing activities for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was from the exercise of stock options of $214,000 and $2.6 million, respectively.
Our balance sheet reflects positive working capital of $123.3 million at September 30, 2019 compared to $134.6 million at December 31, 2018. The decrease in working capital is primarily a result of the acquisition of Providigm in January 2019. The Company’s primary source of liquidity as of September 30, 2019 was $133.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $38.7 million of marketable securities. The Company also has a $50.0 million revolving credit facility, all of which was available for additional borrowing at September 30, 2019. The revolving credit facility expires on November 24, 2020, unless earlier renewed or amended.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet anticipated working capital needs, new product development, and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.
In addition, the Company’s growth strategy includes acquiring businesses or making strategic investments in businesses that complement or enhance our business. It is anticipated that future acquisitions or strategic investments, if any, would be effected through cash consideration, stock consideration, or a combination of both. The issuance of our stock as consideration for an acquisition or to raise additional capital could have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and could adversely affect our stock price. Our revolving credit facility contains financial covenants and availability calculations designed to set a maximum leverage ratio of outstanding debt to adjusted EBITDA and an interest coverage ratio of adjusted EBITDA to interest expense (the definition of adjusted EBITDA in our revolving credit facility differs in certain respects from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA set forth herein). Therefore, the maximum borrowings against our revolving credit facility would be dependent on the covenant calculations at the time of borrowing. As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants. There can be no assurance that amounts available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to consummate any possible acquisitions, and we cannot assure you that if we need additional financing that it will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. Failure to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or raise additional capital when required in sufficient amounts and on terms acceptable to us could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. We do not have any material foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2019 and during the nine months then ended, the Company had no outstanding debt. We may become subject to interest rate market risk associated with any future borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility varies depending on the interest rate option selected by the Company plus a margin determined in accordance with a pricing grid. We are also exposed to market risk with respect to our cash and investment balances of $172.6 million at September 30, 2019. Assuming a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates for invested balances, interest income from cash and investments would decrease on an annualized basis by $375,000.
The Company’s investment policy and strategy is focused on investing in highly rated securities with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. The Company’s policy limits the amount of credit exposure to any single issuer and sets limits on the average portfolio maturity.
The above market risk discussion and the estimated amounts presented are forward‑looking statements of market risk assuming the occurrence of certain adverse market conditions. Actual results in the future may differ materially from those projected as a result of actual developments in the market.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Controls and Procedures
HealthStream’s chief executive officer and principal financial officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that HealthStream’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act was accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
