The accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. 4 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods indicated. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of annual results. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the HBO & Company (the "Company" or "HBOC") 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. 2. As of March 31, 1998, there was no outstanding balance on the Company's $50 million long-term revolving credit agreement. Interest is payable at the Company's option of prime or LIBOR plus 0.5% (6.1875% as of March 31, 1998). A commitment fee of 0.25% per annum is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the commitment. The agreement, which expires June 30, 1999, contains certain net worth, cash flow and financial ratio covenants. The Company is in compliance with these covenants at March 31, 1998. 3. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company utilized $8.1 million and $9.3 million of severance and product-related acquisition reserves, respectively. As of March 31, 1998, remaining severance and product-related acquisition reserves were $5.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively. 4. Effective January 1, 1998, HBOC adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires interim disclosure of total comprehensive income. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 130 will have no material impact on its financial statements as there are no material differences between net income and comprehensive income. 5 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998, COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997: SUMMARY For the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the Company achieved earnings per share of $.30, a 67% increase over earnings per share of $.18 for the first quarter of 1997. Total HBOC revenue for the first quarter of 1998 increased 30% to $342.8 million from $263.3 million in the first quarter of 1997. Operating expense increased 19% for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. The Company continues to make progress in the area of employee productivity, with revenue per average employee at March 31, 1998, of $211,000, up from $188,000 at March 31, 1997. These changes in revenue and expense combined to boost net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, by 69% to $64.9 million from $38.4 million for the first quarter 1997. REVENUE Software license fee revenue grew 14% to $101.2 million for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Contributing to this increase was the continuing strong demand for Pathways 2000-Registered Trademark- and STAR 2000 solutions, as well as demand for products from recently acquired companies including Enterprise Systems, Inc., National Health Enhancement Systems, Inc., and HPR Inc. The continued growth in sales from developed and acquired products validates the integration strategy of the Company as customers look for a vendor with an enterprisewide solution set to meet their ever expanding needs. Hardware revenue increased 88% to $66.8 million for the first quarter compared to $35.6 million for the same period in 1997. This increase was primarily due to strong hardware sales of enterprise and connect technology equipment and a continuing effort to increase sales of add-on hardware to existing customers through the HBOC Sales Center. Hardware margins improved slightly for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Implementation and one-time services revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, increased 28% to $56.5 million, from $44.1 million for the same period in 1997. This increase was primarily due to the numerous implementations resulting from strong 1997 system sales of the Company's STAR 2000 and Pathways 2000 products as well as payor market products. Installation and implementation services are offered to purchasers of all HBOC software products, and the Company continues to focus on increasing the efficiency of the implementation process utilizing such things as standard project plans and best practices service methodologies. Maintenance and support revenue increased 21% to $70.0 million for the first quarter of 1998 compared to $57.9 million for the same period in 1997. This increase was primarily the result of new maintenance contracts from increased software sales and the expansion of the customer base. Outsourcing revenue increased 45% for the first quarter of 1998, compared to the same period in 1997. This increase was mainly the result of international outsourcing revenue from HBOC UK's purchase acquisition of AT&T's UK Specialist Healthcare Services Division (AT&T Healthcare). AT&T Healthcare expands HBOC's role as a provider of software solutions and remote processing services for the financial and payroll needs of healthcare providers in the United Kingdom. This acquisition also makes the Company the largest healthcare information technology vendor in the UK. EXPENSE Cost of operations as a percent of revenue remained constant at 43% for the first quarter of 1998, compared to the same period in 1997, despite strong hardware sales in the quarter. The gross margin for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997 was 57%. Cost of operations expense increased in 1998 compared to 6 1997 primarily due to increased personnel expense as a result of the overall growth of the Company and increased hardware costs associated with the growth in hardware sales. Marketing expense as a percent of revenue decreased to 14% for the first quarter of 1998 compared to 16% for the same period in 1997. Actual marketing expense increased primarily due to higher personnel and commission expense related to the growth in size and revenue of the Company. Research and development (R&D) expense as a percent of revenue decreased to 6% from 8% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in 1997. The R&D capitalization rate increased to 29% from 26% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in 1997. The R&D capitalization rate increased as a result of projects which focus on the integration of acquired products and the continued new development of enterprisewide solutions. The increase in actual R&D expense is mainly due to increases in personnel costs associated with growth in the Company. General and administrative (G&A) expense as a percent of revenue decreased to 7% in the first quarter of 1998 from 10% in the first quarter of 1997. Actual G&A expense decreased slightly for the period primarily due to cost savings realized from the integration of operations of acquired companies. Operating expense grew at a slower rate than revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in 1997, due to strong system revenue, successful cost control programs and productivity enhancements. Total operating income increased 68% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in 1997. In addition, operating income as a percent of revenue increased to 30% for the first quarter of 1998 from 23% for the first quarter of 1997. The tax rate remained constant at 40% for the quarters ended March 31, 1998, and 1997. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES MARCH 31, 1998, COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 1997: The Company continues to improve the strength and quality of its balance sheet. At March 31, 1998, with $473 million in cash and short-term investments, no bank debt and an improving current ratio, the Company remains well-positioned for continued growth. During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, the Company generated $22.4 million in cash flow from operations. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company used cash of $19.1 million in investing activities, primarily consisting of $9.9 million used for capital expenditures and $9.1 million used for software development capitalization. An additional $32.2 million was provided from financing activities, primarily related to proceeds from the issuance of common stock pursuant to employee benefit plans which were partially offset by the payment of dividends. As a result, the Company's cash balance increased to $468 million at March 31, 1998, from $432 million at December 31, 1997. The Company's current ratio increased to 2.9:1 at March 31, 1998, from 2.3:1 at December 31, 1997. Current assets increased $53 million, primarily reflecting a large increase in cash. Receivables increased as well, but as a percent of current assets remained constant at 46% at March 31, 1998, and December 31, 1997. The Company's management places a high priority on the area of receivables, and the Company continues to monitor receivables performance closely. Current liabilities decreased $66 million, mainly due to the pay-down of year-end accruals and the utilization of acquisition reserves. The Company has access to several financing sources, including a $5 million line of credit and a $50 million revolving credit agreement. As of March 31, 1998, there were no outstanding balances on either. Management believes that the Company's existing cash and short-term investment balances, anticipated future cash flow from operations and amounts available under existing credit arrangements are sufficient to meet ongoing operational and capital expenditure requirements, as well as to fund costs associated with future equity acquisitions and small acquisitions for cash. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This report contains certain forward-looking statements, which are qualified by the risks and uncertainties described from time to time in HBOC's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. 7 ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of HBO & Company: We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet of HBO & COMPANY (a Delaware corporation) AND SUBSIDIARIES as of March 31, 1998 and the related statement of income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, and the statement of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
