Inc. Announces Fiscal 2019 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Results
Fourth quarter results driven by 10.1% year-over-year growth in home care revenue and operating margin improvement to 17.3% --
Prague, Minnesota - August 27, 2019 - Electromed, Inc. (NYSE American: ELMD), a leader in innovative airway clearance
technologies, today announced financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2019 (Q4 FY 2019).
Skarvan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Electromed, commented, "In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we delivered
record revenue of $8.6 million, driven by a 10.1% year-over-year increase in home care revenue. Moreover, we achieved strong growth
in operating income and cash flow from operating activities, reflecting our continuing cost containment efforts and the sales
force restructuring we implemented in March 2019. Regarding our emphasis on sales force productivity, this quarter we produced
approximately $908,000 of annualized home care revenue per direct field sales employee, exceeding our target range of between
$750,000 and $850,000. While quarter to quarter fluctuations in our business can be expected, in fiscal 2020 we are confident
about attaining target productivity levels and low double-digit revenue growth."
Skarvan continued, "Educating physicians on the value of SmartVest Airway Clearance therapy for bronchiectasis patients
is key to our growth. This quarter BMC Pulmonary Medicine published a first-of-its-kind independent study that concluded
early initiation of therapy with SmartVest decreases severe exacerbations, reduces antibiotic use and stabilizes lung function
for bronchiectasis patients. This study along with published outcomes studies in Respiratory Therapy in 2016 and 2018 demonstrate
the growing body of clinical evidence supporting the use of our SmartVest Airway Clearance device as a standard of care among
individuals with non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis. Guided by our patient-centric mission of making life's important moments
possible, one breath at a time, we aim to further penetrate the large and growing bronchiectasis market."
revenue increased 9.3% to $8.6 million, from $7.9 million in Q4 FY 2018, primarily driven by higher home care revenue. Home care
revenue rose 10.1% to $8.0 million from $7.3 million in Q4 FY 2018, primarily due to a higher average allowable due to payor mix
as compared to the prior year and greater productivity from the Company's field sales staff. Field sales employees totaled
40, of which 34 were direct sales, at the end of Q4 FY 2019, compared to 42 at the end of Q3 FY 2019, of which 36 were direct
sales, and 50 at the end of Q4 FY 2018 of which 42 were direct sales.
profit increased 8.1% to $6.7 million, or 77.5% of net revenue, from $6.2 million, or 78.4% of net revenue, in Q4 FY 2018. The
increase in gross profit resulted primarily from an increase in home care revenue. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage
of net revenue was driven by a lower selling price per device in our institutional market.
expenses, which include selling, general and administrative (SG&A) as well as R&D expenses, totaled $5.2 million,
or 60.2% of net revenue, compared with $4.9 million, or 62.3% of net revenue, in the same period of the prior year.
SG&A expenses increased by $212,000 to $5.1 million from $4.9 million in Q4 FY 2018. The prior year quarter benefited
from a refund of a medical device tax that reduced Q4 FY 2018 SG&A expense by $406,000 while the current year included
additional depreciation and amortization of $117,000 due to terminating a lease of office space, requiring us to accelerate
the leasehold amortization associated with the property. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses improved to
59.0% compared to 61.8%, reflecting ongoing cost-containment efforts. R&D expenses increased to $107,000, from $41,000 in
Q4 FY 2018, due to work on an innovative product feature designed to improve patients' access to treatment
income totaled $1.5 million, compared to $1.3 million in Q4 FY 2018.
income before income tax expense totaled $1.5 million compared to $1.3 million in Q4 FY 2018.
income equaled $1.1 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $1.0 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in Q4 FY 2018.
In Q4 FY 2019, income tax expense totaled $432,000, compared to $339,000 in the same period of the prior year.
2019 Full Year Summary
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, revenue grew 10.6% to $31.3 million, from $28.3 million in fiscal 2018, driven by a 10.3%
