NASHUA, N.H., Nov. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iCAD, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICAD) a global leader on a mission to create a world where cancer can’t hide by providing clinically proven AI-powered breast health solutions, today reported its financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Highlights:

• Completed sale of Xoft, its therapy business line, to Elekta thereby enabling the Company to focus exclusively on its core business of AI-powered breast health solutions.
• Company re-introduces Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) metrics to highlight progress of subscription sales and growing recurring revenue model.
• Company does not need to raise additional funding to pursue growth initiatives. 

“With the divestiture of Xoft coupled with cost reductions earlier this year, we’ve completed our necessary steps to streamline operations and put all our focus into scaling the ProFound AI breast health business, immediately prioritizing expanding our sales and partnership models to grow revenue," said Dana Brown, President and CEO, iCAD. "We’re pursuing a large addressable market where significant patient need exists, with globally more than 31,000 mammography systems serving approximately 250 million women in the age range recommended for annual mammograms. Yet, recent research indicates only 37% of mammography sites are currently using artificial intelligence (AI). Backed by science, clinical evidence, and proven patient outcomes; our ProFound Breast Health Suite solutions – Cancer Detection, Density Assessment, and Risk Evaluation – provide an unmatched approach to accurately detecting more cancers earlier, providing certainty and peace of mind to providers and patients. Our mission is to see that these solutions are deployed universally as part of the standard of care for breast health in order to achieve our vision of a world where cancer can’t hide.”

“As noted in our previous earnings announcement, our plan was to bring back the Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) metric once it had become a reliable and growing portion of our revenue mix.  In addition to the previously disclosed Subscription-ARR metric, we will be introducing three new ARR metrics: 

1. Total ARR (T-ARR) represents the annualized value of subscription license, maintenance contracts and active cloud services at the end of a reporting period.
2. Maintenance Services ARR (M-ARR) represents the annualized value of active perpetual license maintenance service contracts at the end of the reporting period.
3. Subscription ARR (S-ARR) represents the annualized value of active subscription or term licenses at the end of a reporting period.
4. Cloud ARR (C-ARR) represents the annualized value of active cloud services contracts at the end of a reporting period.

The steady shift to a recurring revenue model from a perpetual model has numerous benefits, including better business visibility, more efficient expense management and an improved ability to predict future cash flow,” added Brown. “Our ongoing transition to software subscriptions and other recurring revenue models demonstrates our ability to adapt to customer needs, and we are seeing increased demand from customers who want to adopt and scale our leading AI technology via this more flexible procurement approach, which is not only more efficient but also cost-effective compared to a traditional one-time license sale, especially given the current pressure on capital budgets. Overall demand for our technology is strong, and we are making clear and steady progress penetrating the market; therefore, we’re re-introducing and expanding this set of non-GAAP metrics to measure our recurring revenue progress and success.”       

Brown continued, "We’ve made solid progress in the past 6 months executing a three-phase transformation: 1) Realigning our Base, 2) Rebuilding our Foundation and 3) Investing in Growth Initiatives. We believe anchoring our growth efforts around monetizing our already significant demand is the best way to reach a meaningful revenue inflection point while managing our cash runway. We plan for revenue to grow and diversify in 2024, and as result of our recent streamlining actions, we have the cash needed to pursue our growth initiatives."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP 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 capital leases and interest on the convertible debentures 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 and Furlough: The Company has incurred severance and furlough expenses in connection with restructuring and in connection with the separation of its former CEO.  The Company excludes these items from its non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating its continuing business performance as such items can vary significantly and do not reflect expected future operating expenses. In addition, management believes that such items do not have a direct correlation to future business operations.   
• Loss on fair value of convertible debentures. The Company excludes this non-cash item as it is not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such item does not have a direct correlation to future business operations.
• 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.
• Loss on extinguishment of debt: The Company excludes this non-cash item as it is not considered by management in making operating decisions, and management believes that such item does not have a direct correlation to future business operations.

On occasion in the future, there may be other items, such as loss on extinguishment of debt, 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.
