Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., an integrated population health management company, announced its consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2019.

ALHAMBRA, Calif., March 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (“ApolloMed” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AMEH), an integrated population health management company, announced today its consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2019.

“We closed out 2019 on a high note and are very pleased with our fourth quarter financial performance, which demonstrated meaningful improvements in revenue, net income and adjusted EBITDA. The year was marked by significant accomplishments including our acquisition of Alpha Care Medical Group and Accountable Health Care IPA, the closing of the series of transactions with Allied Physicians of California IPA, and our achievement of now managing over one million lives.”

“Over the course of a successful 2019, we worked to build an organization that is both scalable and profitable. I believe we are well positioned to deliver sustainable growth as we continue to support the healthcare industry’s shift to value-based care,” stated Kenneth Sim, M.D., Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of ApolloMed.

Financial Highlights for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2019:

  • Total revenue of $178.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 68% as compared to $106.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, primarily due to the acquisitions of Alpha Care Medical Group and Accountable Health Care IPA, which were acquired on May 31, 2019 and August 30, 2019, respectively.
  • Capitation revenue, net, of $148.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, representing 83% of our total revenue, an increase of 92% compared to $77.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018.
  • Risk pool settlements and incentives revenue of $18.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an increase of 62%, as compared to $11.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to the timing of incentives revenue paid and recognized.
  • Net income attributable to Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. of $6.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, compared to net loss attributable to Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. of $3.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. The increase from the prior year was primarily due to preferred dividends received from Allied Physicians of California IPA (“APC”) as a result of our completion of a series of transactions with APC on September 11, 2019.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA, of which the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP is net (loss) income. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, (“GAAP”), and may be different from other non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure of our operations, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding losses from equity method investments and other income earned that is not related to the Company’s normal operations. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes non recurring items, including those resulting from our adoption related to Accounting Standards Codification 606 - Revenue Recognition, provider bonus payments, net provision for doubtful accounts, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, severance payments, and the effect on EBITDA of certain IPAs we recently acquired.

The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with relevant and useful information as it allows investors to evaluate the operating performance of the business activities without having to account for differences recognized because of non-core and non-recurring financial information. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of ApolloMed’s ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. To the extent this release contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. Reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided above.

Note About Consolidated Entities

The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent third party equity ownership interests in the Company’s consolidated entities (including certain VIEs). The amount of net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Note About Stockholders’ Equity, Certain Treasury Stock and Earnings Per Share

As of the date of this press release, 535,392 shares of ApolloMed’s common stock to be issued as part of the merger (the “Merger”) involving ApolloMed and Network Medical Management, Inc. (“NMM”) in 2017 are subject to ApolloMed receiving from certain former NMM shareholders a properly completed letter of transmittal (and related exhibits) before such former NMM shareholders may receive their pro rata portion of ApolloMed common stock and warrants. Pending such receipt, such former NMM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the Merger. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and the Company is legally obligated to issue these shares as of the closing of the Merger.

Shares of ApolloMed’s common stock owned by APC, a VIE of the Company, are legally issued and outstanding but excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as such shares are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate the Company’s earnings per share.
