Streamline Health® Reports Fourth Quarter 2014 Revenues Of $6.6 Million; 2014 Recurring Revenues Of 88% - Streamline Health Solns (NASDAQ:STRM)

New CEO to Focus on Revenue Growth and Looking Glass® Platform to Improve Financial Performance in 2015 and Beyond

Company to Provide 2015 Guidance During Earnings Call

ATLANTA, April 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. STRM, a leading provider of transformational data-driven solutions to help healthcare providers reduce exposure to risk, enhance clinical, financial, and operational performance, and improve patient care, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year of 2014, which ended January 31, 2015.

Revenues for the three-month period ended January 31, 2015 increased approximately 1.2% to $6.6 million versus $6.5 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter was $(0.7) million, up from $(2.2) million in the same period a year ago.

Revenues for fiscal year 2014 were $27.6 million, a 3.1 percent decrease over the previous fiscal year. Recurring revenues for the year were $24.4 million, up 9.4% over fiscal year 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year was $(1.0) million, down from $1.8 million in fiscal year 2013.

"2014 was a difficult year for our company, and for many other companies in our industry, as purchasing slowed down following the most recent phase of Meaningful Use," stated David W. Sides, President and CEO, Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. "A higher level of revenue attrition – nearly twice our historical average - comprised of the loss of some legacy GE clients along with some acquired client relationships negatively affected revenue in 2014 and will affect it in 2015 as well."

"We did, however, establish a new annual record for contract bookings in 2014, and large contracts, such as the ones we signed in Q3 last year, are a very positive development for our company in the long term, although these wins usually take longer to implement and, therefore, longer to recognize revenue. Today our committed, unimplemented quarterly recurring revenue stands at approximately $1.2 million, equating to nearly $5 million in annual revenues that are unrecognized at this time," continued Sides.

"As I look at the challenges and opportunities for our Company, I have implemented three key initiatives that we believe will lead to improved financial performance in 2015 and beyond, as follows. First, grow sales – both inside our existing client base and outside - and focus on improving our client retention. To augment our selling efforts, besides the addition of more sales people and in-house lead generation resources already accomplished, we are looking to expand and better manage strategic channel partners to help sell our solutions to more clients faster. Second, we will complete the links among the solutions inside our Looking Glass® platform to improve the user experience for those who have more than one of our software modules and to aid in cross-selling to our current clients. Third, we will improve our professional services performance to deliver a meaningful contribution to revenue and profit."

"Our clients are some of the most well-regarded healthcare providers in the industry. Our job – and our most immediate opportunity for growth – is to provide them with industry-leading solutions that help make their lives easier, and the performance of their institutions better."

Highlights for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 31, 2015 included:

Revenues for the fourth quarter 2014 were $6.6 million, and for the year were $27.6 million;
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter 2014 was $(0.7) million, and for the year was $(1.0) million;
Recorded net loss of $(4.8) million for the three-month period ended January 31, 2015, and $(12.0) million for the fiscal year 2014;
Maintenance and support revenues for the quarter increased $0.3 million over the same period one year ago, and were $16.2 million for fiscal year 2014 up 16% over fiscal year 2013;
New sales bookings for the quarter were $0.3 million and $24.0 million for the fiscal year; and
Backlog at the end of the quarter was $72.5 million.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Streamline Health defines "adjusted EBITDA" as net earnings (loss) plus interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense of tangible and intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, significant non-recurring operating expenses, and transactional related expenses including: gains and losses on debt and equity conversions, associate severances and related restructuring expenses, associate inducements, and professional and advisory fees .

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Table C

This press release contains a non-GAAP financial measure under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for adjusted EBITDA. This non-GAAP information supplements and is not intended to represent a measure of performance in accordance with disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Non-GAAP financial measures are used internally to manage the business, such as in establishing an annual operating budget. Non-GAAP financial measures are used by Streamline Health's management in its operating and financial decision-making because management believes these measures reflect ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Accordingly, the Company believes it is useful for investors and others to review both GAAP and non-GAAP measures in order to (a) understand and evaluate current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does and (b) compare in a consistent manner the Company's current financial results with past financial results. The primary limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures are that these measures may not be directly comparable to the amounts reported by other companies and they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations. The Company's management compensates for these limitations by considering the company's financial results and outlook as determined in accordance with GAAP and by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables attached to this press release. Streamline Health defines "adjusted EBITDA" as net earnings (loss) plus interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense of tangible and intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, significant non-recurring operating expenses, and transactional related expenses including: gains and losses on debt and equity conversions, associate severances and related restructuring expenses, associate inducements, professional and advisory fees, and internal direct costs incurred to complete transactions.
