Management Commentary
“We closed 2019 with an excellent fourth quarter featuring a 5% increase in revenue over a strong prior-year comparison, while generating meaningful profitability,” said Joe Sardano, Sensus Healthcare’s chairman and chief executive officer. “When Sensus came public almost five years ago, we projected profitability in 2020. With much of the research and development that supported new products including Sculptura and Sensus Cloud™ now behind us, we are determined to be profitable for the year.
“During the quarter we shipped 26 systems, including 16 SRT-100 Vision systems, nine SRT-100 and SRT-100+ systems and one Sculptura system. Our Sensus Cloud software is embedded in our SRT-100+ units and allows the practice to better manage the system with billing and real-time alerts, among other capabilities, while we provide remote service and monitoring. The SRT-100+ helps us provide more efficient service to our customers, while making a shared revenue program, which began in the third quarter of 2019, possible. Currently 34% of the systems we have sold have associated recurring service revenues, up from 26% a year ago. While the bulk of premium-priced SRT-100 Vision systems were sold to a key customer, we also sold a Vision system to a dermatology practice in Idaho during the quarter. We are pleased with our relationship with this key customer and are working with them to refine our agreement.
“We recently announced the sale of our third Sculptura system, this one to a leading California-based medical center. This follows sales to the Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, with which we have a research agreement, and to Beilinson Hospital of the Rabin Medical Center in Tel Aviv. We are in discussions with several more key institutions and expect these sales to occur in the first half of the year. Penn is gearing up for research work with Sculptura in the very near future.
Mr. Sardano continued, “We believe our international sales are poised for a rebound following the geopolitical upheaval in China during 2019. We look forward to resuming sales there as the U.S./China trade war appears to be resolving, noting the recent coronavirus outbreak has added unexpected uncertainty. In addition, we received regulatory clearance in Korea during the fourth quarter and sold an SRT-100 unit to Vietnam. Overall, we believe the entire Asia market holds promise.
“During the fourth quarter we promoted several professionals from within our organization to new executive positions. These individuals have impressive qualifications, discipline, dedication, and a focus on profitability. As we approach the 10-year anniversary of the founding of Sensus Healthcare this June, we expect to have placed our 500th unit and to be well on our way to sustained profitability,” Mr. Sardano concluded.
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2019 were $8.5 million, compared with $8.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to higher average selling prices.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $5.5 million, or 64.1% of revenues, compared with $4.9 million, or 60.2 % of revenues, for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Selling and marketing expense for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $2.5 million, compared with $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to higher headcount.
General and administrative expense for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $1.1 million, compared with $1.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to bad debt expense of $0.4 million, largely offset by a decline in payroll expense.
Research and development expense for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.9 million, compared with $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease was mainly due to lower expenses related to Sculptura development, as commercial production begins.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared with net income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $1.3 million, compared with $0.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense. Please see below for a reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, and the specific reasons these non-GAAP financial measures are provided.
Cash and investments were $15.5 million as of December 31, 2019, compared with $15.4 million as of December 31, 2018. The company had no long-term debt and no outstanding borrowings on its revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2019.
Full Year 2019 Financial Results
Total revenues for 2019 were $27.3 million, compared with $26.4 million for 2018. Gross profit for 2019 was $17.6 million, or 64.4% of revenue, compared with $16.9 million, or 64.0% of revenue, for 2018.
Selling and marketing expense increased to $9.1 million for 2019 from $8.5 million in the prior year, primarily due to higher headcount. General and administrative expense decreased to $4.0 million for 2019 from $4.1 million for 2018, mostly due to lower payroll expense. Research and development expense was $6.4 million for 2019, compared with $6.3 million for 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the FDA clearance of Sculptura as well the Company’s ramp-up to production.
The net loss for 2019 was $(1.7) million, or $(0.10) per share, compared with a net loss of $(2.0) million, or $(0.14) per share, for 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA for 2019 was $(0.8) million, compared with $(0.4) million for 2018.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Sensus Healthcare management uses Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in its analysis of performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures nor should it be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense, provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of Sensus Healthcare. Non-GAAP financial measures are not formally defined by GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by Sensus Healthcare. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors who follow the practice of some investment analysts who adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude items that may obscure underlying performance and distort comparability. A reconciliation of the GAAP net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the schedule below.
