Company announces board and leadership changes

Conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET

NASHUA, N.H., Nov. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iCAD, Inc. ICAD, a global medical technology company providing innovative cancer detection and therapy solutions, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Third Quarter 2018 Highlights:

  • Total revenue of $6.2 million, a decrease of 12% year-over-year
  • Gross profit of $4.7 million, or 77%
  • GAAP Net Loss of $1.4 million, or ($0.08) per share
  • Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA loss of ($0.4) million

Subsequent Events:

  • In October, the Company appointed Michael Klein, Dr. Rakesh Patel, and Dr. Susan Wood to its Board of Directors.  Following these appointments Anthony Ecock, Dr. Robert Goodman, Dr. Lawrence Howard, Steven Rappaport, Somu Subramaniam, and Dr. Elliot Sussman resigned from the Company's Board.  Michael Klein was appointed Chairman of the Board. 
  • On November 9, 2018 the Company announced that Ken Ferry had retired from his position as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and stepped down as a Director of the Company, and that Mr. Klein was appointed Interim CEO.

"I'm thrilled that Drs. Patel and Wood have joined the Board of iCAD," said Michael Klein, Executive Chairman and Interim CEO.  "Their invaluable experiences in the areas of cancer therapy, detection, and A.I. will be a significant asset for the Company."

"Our core focus is to execute on our base business while we reduce expenses and cash burn.  We are preparing for the receipt of FDA clearance for a potentially game changing product, our new A.I. product for digital breast tomosynthesis," stated Mr. Klein. "In our Detection segment, while demand for PowerLook Tomo Detection, our first FDA approved A.I. product for the detection of breast cancer on 3D mammograms, remains strong, our total addressable market is limited to GE systems today.  Therefore, our new A.I. product for digital breast tomosynthesis is critical to our longer-term growth, as it will be available on all of the major suppliers of 3D mammography systems, creating a much larger addressable market."

"The most significant component of our FDA submission for our new A.I. product for digital breast tomosynthesis was the results of our clinical reader study," continued Mr. Klein.  "The results of this study were excellent, and demonstrated significant positive results for clinical performance and workflow efficiency.  The data showed that when our new A.I. product for digital breast tomosynthesis was used to read cases, radiologists' cancer detection accuracy or sensitivity improved by an average of 8%, and their specificity or the ability to accurately detect false positives increased in accuracy by an average of 7%, all with a greater than 50% reduction in reading time."

"In our Therapy segment, our decision to focus on capital sales and recurring revenue continues to have a highly beneficial impact on our overall business.  Product sales in this segment increased $700 thousand, or 54%, in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of last year.  In addition, our total gross margins increased to 75% from 68% and our operating expenses decreased 19% in the first nine months of 2018 versus the corresponding period of last year.  In addition, our cash burn decreased to $2.6 million in the first nine months of 2018, as compared to $6.1 million1 in the first nine months of 2017," concluded Mr. Klein.

Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Revenue:  Total revenue for the third quarter of 2018 decreased 12% to $6.2 million from $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2017, reflecting a 10% decrease in product revenue and a 13% decrease in service and supplies revenue.

$6.1 million cash burn for the first nine months of 2017 excludes the positive impact of one-time cash inflows totaling $3.3 million received in the first quarter of 2017 related to the Sale of the MRI assets ($2.9 million) and a Medical Device Tax Refund ($0.4 million); as well as, $5.5 million in net cash inflows received during the third quarter of 2017 related to the proceeds from a loan ($6.0 million) which was partially offset by one-time patent dispute settlement payment ($0.5 million).

Cancer Detection revenue, which includes revenue from our digital mammography, breast density, and CT CAD platforms, as well as the associated service and supplies revenue, for the third quarter of 2018, decreased $0.4 million, or 10%, to $3.9 million, as compared to $4.3 million in the same period in 2017. Therapy revenue, which includes Xoft® Axxent® Electronic Brachytherapy System® product sales, as well as the associated service and supplies revenue, for the third quarter of 2018, decreased $0.4 million, or 15%, to $2.3 million from $2.7 million in the same period of 2017.  During the first quarter of 2018, the Company ceased offering its subscription service model to skin brachytherapy customers.  Excluding Xoft skin subscription service revenues in both periods, third quarter 2018 Therapy revenues increased $0.1 million, or 6%, to $2.2 million from $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2017.  Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2018, excluding the impact of Xoft skin subscription service revenues, decreased 5% to $6.1 million from $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2017.

Gross Profit:  Gross profit for the third quarter of 2018 was $4.7 million, or 77% of revenue, compared with $4.6 million, or 66% of revenue, for the third quarter of 2017.  The year-over-year increase in gross profit percentage is primarily due to incremental gross profit margin associated with the Company's exit from the unprofitable Xoft skin subscription service business.

Operating Expenses:  Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2018 decreased $5.6 million to $6.0 million from $11.6 million in the third quarter of 2017.  The decrease was due primarily to the absence of the goodwill impairment charge of $4.7 million recorded in the prior year period, as well as lower marketing and product development expenses.

GAAP Net Loss:  Net loss for the third quarter of 2018 was ($1.4) million, or ($0.08) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of ($6.9) million, or ($0.42) per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017.  The $5.5 million year-over-year improvement in net loss was primarily due to lower operating expenses. 

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA:  Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, was a loss of ($0.4) million for the third quarter of 2018, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss of ($1.3) million for the third quarter of 2017.  Please refer to the section entitled "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures" and the accompanying financial table included at the end of this release for a reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA results for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 Financial Results

Revenue:  Total revenue for the first nine months of 2018 decreased 8% to $18.7 million from $20.2 million in the same nine-month period of 2017, reflecting a 1% increase in product revenue and a 15% decrease in service and supplies revenue.

Cancer Detection revenue for the first nine months of 2018 decreased $1.1 million, or 9%, to $11.9 million, as compared to $13.1 million in the same nine-month period in 2017.  The year-over-year Detection results were negatively impacted by the inclusion of $0.4 million in MRI revenue in the first nine months of 2017.  The MRI assets were divested in the first quarter of 2017.  Excluding MRI revenue in both periods, cancer Detection revenues in the first nine months of 2018 decreased $0.9 million, or 7%, to $11.8 million, from $12.6 million in the same nine-month period of 2017.  Therapy revenue for the first nine months of 2018 decreased $0.4 million, or 6%, to $6.7 million, from $7.1 million in the same nine-month period of 2017.  Excluding the Xoft subscription service revenues in both periods, Therapy revenues increased $0.9 million, or 17%, in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the same nine months of 2017. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, excluding the impact of MRI and Xoft skin subscription service revenues, increased slightly to $18.1 million, compared to $18.0 million for the same nine months of 2017.

Gross Profit:  Gross profit for the first nine months of 2018 was $14.0 million, or 75% of revenue, compared with $13.8 million, or 68% of revenue, for the same nine months of 2017.  The year-over-year increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to incremental gross profit margin associated with the Company's exit from the unprofitable Xoft skin subscription service business.

Operating Expenses:  Total operating expenses for the first nine months of 2018 decreased $4.5 million to $19.4 million from $23.8 million in the same nine months of 2017.  The decrease was due primarily to the absence of the goodwill impairment charge of $4.7 million and the $2.5 million gain on the sale of the MRI assets which were both recorded in the prior year period.  Absent these items, operating expenses decreased $2.3 million year-over-year due primarily to lower stock compensation and sales and marketing expense, which were partially offset by incremental costs associated with our Tomo Detection Version 2.0 study. In May of 2018, the Company submitted Tomo Detection Version 2.0 for FDA clearance.

GAAP Net Loss:  Net loss for the first nine months of 2018 was ($5.7) million, or ($0.34) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of ($10.0) million, or ($0.62) per diluted share, for the same nine months of 2017.  The $4.3 million year-over-year improvement in net loss was primarily due to lower operating expenses. 

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA:  Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined below, was a loss of ($3.1) million for the first nine months of 2018, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss of ($3.5) million for the first nine months of 2017.  Please refer to the section entitled "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures" and the accompanying financial table included at the end of this release for a reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA results for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: As of September 30, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6.8 million, compared with $9.4 million as of December 31, 2017.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. However, management believes that in order to understand the Company's short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and/or impact on continuing operations.  Management also uses results of operations before such items to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning.  These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in the Company's ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of the Company's ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or reduce management's ability to make useful forecasts.  Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance.  In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information helpful in analyzing the Company's financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to its peers and competitors.

Management defines "Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA" as the sum of GAAP Net Loss before provisions for interest expense, other income, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, tax expense, severance, gain on sale of assets, loss on disposal of assets, acquisition and litigation related expenses.  Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be an indicator of the Company's operational strength and performance of its business and a good measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Company's overall financial performance.

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of the Company's GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, the Company's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company has provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in its financial reporting and investor presentations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management excludes each of the items identified below from the applicable non-GAAP financial measure referenced above for the reasons set forth with respect to that excluded item:

  • Interest expense: The Company excludes interest expense which includes interest from the facility agreement, interest on settlement obligations and interest on capital leases, from its non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA calculation.
  • Stock-based compensation expense: excluded as these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider part of ongoing operating results when assessing the performance of the Company's business, and also because the total amount of expense is partially outside of the Company's control as it is based on factors such as stock price volatility and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our performance during the period in which the expense is incurred.
  • Amortization and Depreciation: Purchased assets and intangibles are amortized over a period of several years and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after they are acquired. Accordingly, these non-cash items are not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations. Thus, including such charges does not accurately reflect the performance of the Company's ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred.
  • Severance relates to costs incurred due to the termination of certain employees. The Company provides compensation to certain employees as an accommodation upon termination of employment without cause. Management believes that excluding severance costs from operating results provides investors with a better means for measuring current Company performance.
  • Gain on sale of MRI assets relates to the gain realized on the sale of the MRI assets.  The Company excludes this item as it is not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such items do not have a direct correlation to future business operations.
  • Acquisition related: relates to professional service fees due to acquisitions.  The Company does not consider these acquisition-related costs to be related to the organic continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired assets.
  • Litigation related: These expenses consist primarily of settlement, legal and other professional fees related to litigation. The Company excludes these costs from its non-GAAP measures primarily because the Company believes that these costs have no direct correlation to the core operations of the Company.

On occasion in the future, there may be other items, such as significant asset impairments, restructuring charges or significant gains or losses from contingencies that the Company may exclude if it believes that doing so is consistent with the goal of providing useful information to investors and management.
