Management Commentary

Dr. Deepika Vuppalanchi, CEO of Syra Health, said "We are proud of our impressive growth in 2024, as our revenues in the first quarter grew 47% versus last year. As such, we are confident in our 2024 revenue guidance of $9 million to $11 million, based on contracts in hand and pending implementation. The demand for our services remains strong and we believe we are properly positioned to take advantage. We are currently doing business in 19 states, and we anticipate securing new business from both the private and public sectors. We are excited about our Population Health business unit, which grew over 200% in the first quarter, driven by strong demand for our epidemiology services. Our growth remains strong in our newest business units of Digital Health and Health Education, and we are excited that our Healthcare Workforce business unit has returned to growth in 2024. Syrenity, our mental and behavioral health platform, which is focused on prevention, also holds great promise in terms of revenue for 2024 and beyond. We believe we are at the early stages of accelerating growth, which has been made possible by recent investments in our people and our technology."

Q1 2024 Financial Results

Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, was $1.7 million, compared to the $1.2 million reported in the first quarter of 2023. Strong growth was driven by Population Health which grew 212% year over year, and Healthcare Workforce, which grew 28% year over year. Digital Health had revenues of $92,250, compared to zero last year.

Gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2024 was 10.2%, compared to 12.4% in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in gross margins was due to the mix shift to Healthcare Workforce.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2024 were $1.6 million compared to $921,781 in the first quarter of 2023. Salaries and benefits expenses increased 61% to support general business growth and sales. Professional fees declined 18% due to decreased legal and other professional costs as the Company completed its IPO process in the fourth quarter of 2023. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 87% due to increased operations. Depreciation expense was $12,545 compared to $11,763 in the first quarter of 2023, reflecting expanded office space. R&D expenses were $277,548, reflecting the development of technology-based solutions.  

Net Loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $(1.4 million) compared to $(785,892) in the first quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter 2024 was $(1.4 million) compared to $(762,710) in the first quarter 2023.

Cash on hand on March 31, 2024, was $3.2 million.
