Sharecare announces first quarter 2022 financial results and operational highlights
Company provides second quarter guidance and reaffirms full year fiscal 2022 guidance
Company announces $50 million share repurchase program
ATLANTA – May 12, 2022 – Sharecare (Nasdaq: SHCR), the digital health company that helps people manage all their health in one place, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
“The positive financial performance in the first quarter sets a solid foundation for the remainder of the year,” said Jeff Arnold, chairman and CEO of Sharecare. “Having fully integrated a connected suite of virtual and high touch offerings into our flagship platform last year, we entered 2022 with a uniquely differentiated solution and enhanced experience, which is driving a significant number of larger, more dynamic opportunities for the company. We remain confident that our digital first, diversified approach – by both solution and end markets – enables us to drive greater value for our customers and more sustainable long-term financial performance for our shareholders."
“The share repurchase authorization reinforces the board's and management’s confidence in the strength of the Company and the future of our business,” added Arnold. “We believe the current market value of our shares does not accurately reflect the value of the Company. We remain committed to creating value for our shareholders by continuing to prioritize capital allocation initiatives that support our growth strategies and maintain flexibility to pursue both organic and inorganic market expansion.”
First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
All comparisons, unless otherwise noted, are to the three months ended March 31, 2021.
•Revenue of $100.7 million compared to $90.2 million, an increase of $10.5 million, or 12%.
•Net loss of $38.3 million compared to net loss of $31.4 million, an increase to net loss of $6.9 million. Net loss in the first quarter of 2022 included $33.1 million in non-cash stock compensation; $7.4 million of reorganization and acquisition costs; and $10.2 million of other non-cash or non-operational income. Excluding these amounts, the adjusted net loss was $8.0 million in the current quarter.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million compared to $7.1 million, a decrease of $7.0 million, which reflects increased investments in people, most importantly, sales force expansion to support growth, a sunset of the high-margin health security product, and the additional costs of being a public company.
•Net loss per share of $0.11 compared to $0.14, a decrease to net loss per share of $0.03, which reflects the aforementioned items impacting net loss.
•Adjusted loss per share of $0.02 for both periods, which excludes the impact of non-cash and non-operational amounts.
Financial Outlook
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Guidance
For the three months ending June 30, 2022, the Company expects:
•Revenue in the range of $101 to $103 million
•Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $1 to $2 million
Fiscal 2022 Financial Guidance
For the twelve months ending December 31, 2022, the Company expects:
•Revenue in the range of $470 to $500 million
•Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $30 to $36 million
Supplemental Forward-Looking Expectations and Assumptions for Fiscal 2022
The Company has determined to provide the following supplemental expectations and assumptions regarding its fiscal year 2022 results to provide investors with further transparency into the Company’s current beliefs regarding fiscal year 2022, all of which are subject to change:
Our guidance assumptions reflect the following:
•Increase in eligible lives from 9.7 million at year-end 2021 to approximately 12 million lives by year-end fiscal 2022, a 24% increase over fiscal 2021.
•Enterprise revenue growth of approximately 15% compared to fiscal 2021, which includes the impact of the decision to suspend support for certain health security solutions and the transition of our patient centered medical home (PCMH) business.
•Provider revenue growth of approximately 30% compared to fiscal 2021; reflects an expected increase in records retrieved to 6.0 million, an 18% increase over fiscal 2021, and additional growth in payment integrity.
•Life Sciences revenue growth of approximately 11% compared to fiscal 2021 reflects continued market penetration. The channel is expected to have similar seasonality patterns including approximately 35% of annual revenue expected to be reported in the fourth quarter.
•Capital expenditures of between approximately $35 and $40 million.
•Free cash flow of $(50) to $(60) million, which reflects increased working capital needs and investments to support growth but excludes any non-recurring items which may occur during the year.
•Depreciation and amortization of $40 to $50 million.
Repurchases under the program may be made in the Company’s discretion from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, in accordance with all securities laws and regulations, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of Common Stock and the program may be extended, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
Sharecare expects to fund repurchases with existing cash and cash equivalents. The Company had 349,082,480 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2022.
Conference Call
The Company will host a conference call to review the first quarter results today, Thursday, May 12, 2022, at 8:00 a.m. EDT. The call can be accessed by dialing (844) 284-3435 for U.S. participants or (914) 800-3939 for international participants, referencing the conference ID #8265975; or via live audio webcast, available online at https://investors.sharecare.com/. A webcast replay of the call will be available for on-demand listening at the same link and will remain available for approximately 90 days.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe the non-GAAP measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted earnings (loss) per share (“adjusted EPS”) are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted EPS to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations, or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of these non-GAAP measures is helpful to our investors as these metrics are used by management in assessing the health of our business and our operating performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures.
The calculations and reconciliations of historic adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted EPS to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP, are provided below and in the accompanying financial tables. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
We have not reconciled adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) because we do not provide guidance for net income (loss) or for items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing performance, including, but not limited to, the impact of significant non-recurring items, as certain of these items are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA guidance to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort.
Adjusted EBITDA
We calculate adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest income, (iii) interest expense, (iv) income tax (benefit) expense, (v) other expense/(income) (non-operating), (vi) share-based compensation, (vii) severance, (viii) warrants issued with revenue contracts, and (ix) transaction and closing costs. We do not view the items excluded as representative of our ongoing operations.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
We calculate adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) attributable to Sharecare, Inc. adjusted to exclude (i) amortization of acquired intangibles, (ii) amortization of deferred financing fees, (iii) change in fair value of warrant liability and contingent consideration, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) severance, (vi) warrants issued with revenue contracts, and (vii) transaction and closing costs. We do not view the items excluded as representative of our ongoing operations.
Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
We calculate adjusted EPS as adjusted net income (loss), as defined above, divided by the number of weighted average common shares outstanding - basic and diluted.
