CAESAREA, Israel, May 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Global digital therapeutics innovator DarioHealth Corp. (Nasdaq: DRIO), today reported record financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019.

CEO, Erez Raphael, stated, “Our strong financial performance in the first quarter of 2019 was driven by the increased contribution of our higher-margin, digital therapy subscriptions as a percentage of revenue, as the company’s business transforms from being driven by medical devices to software-as-a-service (SaaS).

We believe there is a growing global healthcare emphasis on value and accountability enabled by user-centric evidence-based solutions. DarioHealth’s pioneering digital therapeutics subscription offerings are geared towards the engaged consumer and are driving the company’s improved financial performance.

We continue to see growth acceleration across our membership in user numbers, average revenue per user per month (ARPU), as well as unit margin increases in the unit economics of our membership offering.

We view these improving indicators as validation of our strategy to accommodate increasing digital personalization of healthcare through our shift from a med device-enabled, glucose monitoring app model to a comprehensive, chronic condition management subscription that helps achieve the lifestyle changes and provider access required to meaningfully improve chronic conditions and their costs.

One illustration of this is the value-based care payment initiatives launched recently by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) intended to transform primary care delivery and reduce national healthcare costs, 20% of which goes to the treatment of diabetes.

Our scalable digital therapy platform is built for integration by large organizations such as retailers, health insurance companies, clinics, pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers, and nutrition companies seeking access to health and cost benefits for their users, enabled by healthcare digitization, personalization and evidence-based care.

Our plan is to meet the surge of demand for data-driven therapeutics, especially dealing with chronic conditions, and we expect to accelerate revenue and increase revenue attributed to monthly subscribers through the implementation of certain broad marketing and branding initiatives in tandem with our ongoing sales and marketing optimization efforts.”

First Quarter 2019 Results Summary

Revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019 were $2.24 million, representing a record amount the company has ever achieved in a quarter, a 28% increase from $1.76 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2018, and a 32% increase sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2018.

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2019, we recorded an additional $560,000 as deferred revenues from revenues generated from our new membership offering to our customers in the U.S., a 60% sequential increase from the fourth quarter of 2018.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “plan,” “project,” “potential,” “seek,” “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate” or “continue” are intended to identify forward-looking statements. For example, the Company is using forward-looking statements in this press release when the Company states that its subscription offerings are driving the improved financial performance of the company, that it views the growth in users, ARPU and unit margin as validation of the Company’s strategy to shift to a comprehensive, chronic condition management subscription model, its belief that its user-centric, data evidence based solution is pioneering the space of DTx and fulfilling the expectations of global healthcare systems for value, accountability and strong customer empowerment and its plans to meet the surge of demand for data-driven therapeutics, especially dealing with chronic conditions, and its expectation for an acceleration in revenues, and an increase in revenues attributed to monthly subscribers, through the implementation of certain broad marketing and branding initiatives in tandem with its ongoing sales and marketing optimization efforts. Readers are cautioned that certain important factors may affect the Company’s actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements that may be made in this news release. Factors that may affect the Company’s results include, but are not limited to, regulatory approvals, product demand, market acceptance, impact of competitive products and prices, product development, commercialization or technological difficulties, the success or failure of negotiations and trade, legal, social and economic risks, and the risks associated with the adequacy of existing cash resources.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with peer companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures provided in the financial statement tables below.

Billings (non-GAAP). We define billings as revenue recognized in accordance with GAAP plus the change in deferred revenue from the beginning to the end of the period and adjustment to the deferred revenue balance due to adoption of the new revenue recognition standard less any deferred revenue balances acquired from business combination(s) during the period. We consider billings to be a useful metric for management and investors because billings drive future revenue, which is an important indicator of the health and viability of our business. There are a number of limitations related to the use of billings instead of GAAP revenue. First, billings include amounts that have not yet been recognized as revenue and are impacted by the term of security and support agreements. Second, we may calculate billings in a manner that is different from peer companies that report similar financial measures. Management accounts for these limitations by providing specific information regarding GAAP revenue and evaluating billings together with GAAP revenue.
