Management Commentary

 

“As a rising leader in telehealth, we’re extremely pleased with the evolution of LifeMD into a powerful end-to-end patient-centric digital health platform. Having addressed the needs of over 320,000 patients and customers across 50 states, we are creating converts and advocates of virtual healthcare”, noted LifeMD Chairman and CEO, Justin Schreiber. “I’m especially pleased with the management and leadership team that have chosen to join LifeMD on our journey. We are a company which has been built from the ground up to support the expansion of telehealth and its new role in the transformation of patient care.”

 

“What has been encouraging in the new year, is just how quickly telehealth has been adopted to become a permanent part of the healthcare continuum. The new modality has eased the burden of physician workflow within the healthcare system and patients have embraced virtual treatment as a result of its improved cost, accessibility and convenience. In support of this rapid adoption, the Company is leveraging its digital technology platform with unlimited scalability across new verticals, products and services. As LifeMD continues to support the adoption of telehealth, we are now able to set the stage for balanced growth and multiple pathways to profitability,” concluded Mr. Schreiber.

 

Marc Benathen, CFO commented, “We are extremely pleased with LifeMD’s performance in the period as we continue to overlay new products, services and plan for launches into new healthcare indications and verticals. In doing so, we continue to ramp the business in support of growing revenues and an increasing subscriber base with the goal of working towards profitability. We have also recently begun to hone in on our KPI’s and unit economics and in doing so, reduced our cash burn on a go forward basis by approximately 30% due mostly to more efficient acquisition spend while maintaining an aggressive revenue growth trajectory. This burn will continue to further reduce as we scale our company. Based on the strong results of Q1 and continued momentum resulting from our strong recurring subscription revenue model, we are now increasing our Full Year 2021 Revenue Guidance to $90 to $100 million.”

 

 

Q1 2021 Financial Summary

 

	●	Revenue in the first quarter of 2021 increased 323% to a record $18.2 million from $4.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. The growth in revenue was primarily driven by a 349% increase in telemedicine product revenues.
	●	The company’s LegalSimpli subsidiary, a PDF software-as-a-service (SaaS), contributed net sales of $4.9 million, up 264% from the year-ago quarter.
	●	Including $1.3 million in deferred revenue associated with recurring subscriptions, adjusted revenues on a non-GAAP basis would total $19.5 million for the first quarter of 2021.
	●	Gross profit in the first quarter increased 403% to $14.9 million, compared to $3.0 million in the same year-ago quarter. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2021 increased to 82% from 69% in the same year-ago quarter. The increase of 13% was principally attributable to lower product costs, growth of our prescription business and more stringent inventory management.
	●	Operating expense in the first quarter of 2021 was $26.8 million, up from $4.7 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to increases of selling and marketing expenses of $15.9 million driven by growth in discretionary customer acquisition spend, general and administrative expenses of $5.2 million, other operating expenses of $737,000, customer services expenses of $127,000, and development cost of $114,000. G&A expenses for first quarter of 2021 also included non-cash expenses for stock-based compensation and amortization of $2.3 million.
	●	Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2021 was $11.6 million or $(0.47) per share, as compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $2.4 million or $(0.23) per share in the first quarter of 2020.
	●	Excluding $2.3 million related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense, Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP term, totaled a loss of $(0.38) per share for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to a loss of $(0.22) per share for the first quarter of 2020. (see definition of this non-GAAP term and reconciliation to GAAP, below).
	●	Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, totaled a loss of $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $556,000 in the same year-ago quarter (see definition of this non-GAAP term and reconciliation to GAAP, below).
	●	Cash totaled $13.4 million at March 31, 2021, as compared to $9.2 million at December 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to a private placement with net proceeds of $13.5 million completed in February 2021.

 

2021 Financial Outlook

 

For the full year 2021, the company is raising its revenue guidance to $90 million to $100 million from its previous guidance of $85 to $95 million. The current guidance represents revenue growth of 141% to 168% versus prior year.

About the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

 

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures to clarify and enhance an understanding of past performance. We believe that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that these financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We use certain financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) attributable to common shareholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, financing expense, acceleration of debt discount, inventory valuation adjustment/write off, warrant settlements, accrued interest/deemed distributions, and stock-based compensation expense.

 

Adjusted EPS is defined as the diluted net loss attributable to LifeMD, Inc common shareholders before stock-based compensation expense.

 

We believe the above financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. However, our use of the terms adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS may vary from that of others in our industry. None of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS should be considered as an alternative to net loss before taxes, net loss, loss per share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of performance.

 

The following is a reconciliation of Net loss attributable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to adjusted EBITDA:
