Greenbrook TMS Inc. GTMS ("Greenbrook" or the "Company"), today announced its third quarter 2020 ("Q3 2020") operational and financial results. All values in this news release are in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated.

THIRD QUARTER 2020 FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Quarterly revenue increased by 42% to $12.0 million, up $3.5 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2019 ("Q3 2019"), representing our second highest quarterly revenue results to date.
  • Revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 ("YTD 2020") increased by 43% to $33.2 million, up $10.1 million from the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 ("YTD 2019").
  • Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, quarterly revenue increased by 23%, up $2.2 million from the second quarter of fiscal 2020 ("Q2 2020").
  • Quarterly regional operating income increased by 26% to $1.0 million, up $0.2 million from Q3 2019; however, YTD 2020 regional operating income decreased by 38% to $1.5 million, representing a decrease of $0.9 million from YTD 2019.
  • Added one active TMS Center during Q3 2020, with an additional 11 TMS Centers in development, bringing the total Company network to 125 TMS Centers, representing an increase of 18% as compared to Q3 2019.

Bill Leonard, President and Chief Executive Officer of Greenbrook commented:

"In Q3 2020, we proudly announce our second highest quarterly revenue results since our inception and a return to strong regional operating income, despite the challenging operating environment imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. We continued to experience record monthly highs in new patient starts throughout Q3 2020, highlighting the essential need for TMS therapy during these challenging times. We believe these record monthly highs will support a continued strong upward trend into the fourth quarter of 2020."

Greenbrook also announced today that it has signed a non-binding term sheet with a third-party lender in respect of a secured term loan facility in an aggregate amount of up to $30 million. Completion of the proposed financing remains subject to customary conditions, including completion of customary due diligence and negotiation of definitive documentation; however, there can be no assurances that the financing will be completed on the terms set forth in the non-binding term sheet, or at all. Further details regarding the terms of such proposed financing will be provided if and when a definitive loan agreement has been entered into between the parties.

SPRAVATO® PILOT PROGRAM

Loading...
Loading...

Greenbrook also announced today that, beginning in early 2021, Greenbrook will be implementing a pilot program that offers Spravato® (esketamine) at select Greenbrook TMS treatment centers to treat adults with treatment-resistant depression and depressive symptoms in adults with major depressive disorder with suicidal thoughts or actions.

Spravato® is a nasal spray that can only be administered in certified centers under the direct supervision of a healthcare provider and administration is performed under an FDA mandated Risk Evaluation and Mitigation System (REMS) program. The pilot program will provide the Company with an opportunity to assess the value of making this treatment option available to patients at all of the Company's treatment centers in the future.

"Greenbrook is committed to bringing evidenced-based treatments to our patients suffering from depression," said Bill Leonard, Greenbrook's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited at the prospect of making this new therapeutic option available to our patients, building on our long-term business plan of utilizing our Greenbrook TMS treatment centers as platforms for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from depression."

"In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, we now, more than ever, must leverage the latest in medical innovation to help patients recover from the debilitating symptoms of depression," said Geoffrey Grammer, M.D., Greenbrook's Chief Medical Officer. "Our expert clinicians and platform of care provide patients fast and friendly access to community-based treatments so that patients can focus on their recovery rather than worrying about the logistical obstacles to accessing medical care."

CORPORATE UPDATE

Greenbrook also announced today that Erns Loubser, the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company, will be taking a medical leave of absence. Greenbrook has appointed Ed Cordell as Interim Chief Financial Officer, effective immediately.

Mr. Cordell has over 30 years of accounting and financial management experience. His industry background includes life sciences and medical device technologies, and he has extensive experience working with both private and publicly-traded high-growth companies.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Certain information in this press release, including with respect to the Company's future financial or operating performance, the proposed debt financing, and the Spravato® pilot program, constitute forward-looking information. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans", "targets", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "an opportunity exists", "is positioned", "estimates", "intends", "assumes", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate" or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", "will" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management's expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events.

Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of this press release, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to the factors described in greater detail in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's current annual information form available at www.sedar.com. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect the Company; however, these factors should be considered carefully. There can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or alter statements containing any forward-looking information, or the factors or assumptions underlying them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures

This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company's results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered as alternatives to, loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook or other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. In addition to the Company's results determined in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses non-IFRS measures, including "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA". These non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of the Company's operating performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. See the Company's MD&A for a further discussion of these non-IFRS financial measures and for a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook.
