Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 12, 2024) - HEALWELL AI Inc. (TSX: AIDX) (OTCQX: HWAIF) ("HEALWELL" or the "Company"), a healthcare technology company focused on AI and data science for preventative care, is pleased to announce its condensed interim consolidated financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Dr. Alexander Dobranowski, Chief Executive Officer of HEALWELL, commented, "During the quarter, we delivered record revenue and gross profit, attributable to the growth in commercialization of our AI and data science business units and our recent acquisitions of BioPharma and VeroSource. These acquisitions were transformational for our business, substantially bolstering our revenues and bringing new key relationships with both public and private sector customers. Furthermore, the acquisitions strategically position HEALWELL as an end-to-end pharma partner, allowing us to accelerate the patient care pathway, help patients gain access to clinical trials, and generate valuable post-trial insights using our advanced AI capabilities. With the addition of BioPharma and VeroSource, HEALWELL is now a larger, more robust company, able to participate in the entire healthcare pathway-from early detection of disease using AI and our cloud-based data interoperability and integrated EHR systems, to placing qualified patients in clinical trials for better support. Moreover, we now have the tools to assist large enterprises and provincial health systems in managing their health data more efficiently, applying AI for next-generation population health initiatives, and executing value-based care strategies at scale."
Dr. Alexander Dobranowski further added, "In addition to our acquisitions, we are seeing accelerating commercialization of our solutions across both the public and private sectors. Our AI-enabled patient and disease identification capabilities are successfully winning contracts with top global pharmaceutical companies as we see a big movement to AI enabled preventative care. Furthermore, our healthcare software divisions have made significant strides, securing key public government contracts that demonstrate the value of our offerings in enabling large-scale, data-driven healthcare management. These wins reflect the growing demand for our AI and healthcare solutions. With this momentum, we are confident in our ability to continue driving revenue growth and executing on our long-term vision for the Company."
Anthony Lam, Chief Financial Officer of HEALWELL, commented, "Our robust acquisition pipeline, coupled with our existing cash reserves, strategically position us for substantial growth ahead. We anticipate that our strategic initiatives over the next few months will lead to further announcements that will demonstrate our march to a revenue run rate that exceeds $100 million and puts us on track to achieve profitability on an Adjusted EBITDA basis in 2025. HEALWELL is now successfully accelerating the commercialization of its solutions across both public and private sectors. With 5 new MSAs secured during the quarter, bringing the total number of life sciences MSAs to 27, of which HEALWELL generated revenue from 23 of these pharmaceutical partners. The Company is driving new revenue opportunities from its AI and data science subsidiaries, demonstrating growth with large global pharmaceutical companies."
