NeoGenomics Reports Revenue of $63.1 Million on 17% Volume Growth and 11% Reduction in Average Cost per Test in the Third Quarter of 2017
37% Increase in Pharma Services Revenue
Ft. Myers, Florida - October 25, 2017 - NeoGenomics, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEO), a leading provider of cancer-focused genetic testing services, today reported its results for the third quarter of 2017.
Third Quarter 2017 Highlights:
Consolidated revenues for the third quarter of 2017 were $63.1 million, an increase of 4% over the same period last year. Clinical genetic test volume(1) increased 17% year over year. Average revenue per clinical genetic test ("Revenue per Test") decreased by 11% to $342, primarily due to changes in test mix and a one-time $1.3 million revenue adjustment at quarter-end related to unbilled tests that were processed with insufficient specimen material. As a result of its divestiture on August 1, 2017, PathLogic revenue decreased by $1.4 million, or 78%, from the same period last year. The Company also estimates that Hurricanes Harvey and Irma depressed test volume by approximately 1.5% and revenue by approximately $1.0 million in the third quarter.
Consolidated gross profit improved by $1.5 million, or 5%, compared to last year's third quarter and consolidated gross margin improved by 70 basis points to 45.7%. Gross margin improvement was driven by increased clinical test volume, an 11% reduction in average cost-of-goods-sold per clinical genetic test ("Cost per Test"), and a margin expansion in the Pharma Services business.
Consolidated operating expenses increased by $5.2 million, or 20%, from last year's third quarter, primarily as a result of increased bad-debt and personnel expenses including non-cash stock-based compensation.
Interest expense for the quarter decreased by 5% from the last year's third quarter as a result of refinancing our bank debt in December of 2016 at significantly lower interest rates. The Company also recorded a $1.1 million loss on the sale of PathLogic in Quarter 3.
Net loss in Quarter 3 was $5.1 million, versus a net loss of $67,000 in last year's third quarter. GAAP loss per share available to common stockholders, after deducting non-cash preferred stock charges, was ($0.10) in Quarter 3, versus ($0.07) per share in last year's third quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA(2) was $6.0 million in Quarter 3, a 34% reduction from the prior year. The Company estimates that Adjusted EBITDA was reduced by approximately $1.2 million from the two hurricanes and by $1.3 million from the one-time revenue adjustment for unbilled tests. Adjusted Net Income(2) was $474,000 as compared to $3.4 million in the prior year. Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) was $0.01 per share, as compared to $0.04 in last year's third quarter.
Douglas M. VanOort, the Company's Chairman and CEO, commented, "Quarter 3 had several unique challenges. We were impacted by two Category 4 Hurricanes which hit our labs in Houston and in Fort Myers. The quarter also had the sale of PathLogic, a one-time adjustment to our unbilled tests and elevated levels of bad debt. We believe these items are either one-time in nature or short-term trends and we exited the quarter with strong growth momentum in both our Clinical and Pharma Services divisions. Combined with our continued focus on operating excellence, we expect to get back to higher levels of Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income quickly."
Mr. VanOort concluded, "We are particularly pleased with momentum in our Pharma Services Division, as we signed a record $17.5 million of net new contracts and ended the quarter with a $58 million backlog of contracted revenue, a 76% increase over last year. Pharma Services revenue increased 37% from last year to a record $6.9 million driven by immuno-oncology related work, including our proprietary MultiOmyx testing platform. We are also pleased to report that our new Rolle, Switzerland lab facility near Geneva is now open for business as part of our initiative to become a worldwide partner to the Pharma industry."
Quarter 4 Financial Outlook:
NeoGenomics also issued preliminary guidance for the fourth quarter 2017, which excludes the operations of PathLogic. The Company expects fourth quarter consolidated revenue to be in the range of $65 - $67 million and GAAP Diluted EPS to be a loss of ($0.04) - ($0.03) per share. The Company expects Adjusted EBITDA(2) to be $9 - $10 million, Adjusted Net Income(2) to be $3.7 - $4.2 million, and Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) to be $0.04 - $0.05 per share.
Please also refer to the tables reconciling forecasted Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA to their closest GAAP equivalents in the section of this report entitled "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Guidance to Corresponding GAAP Measures."
The Company reserves the right to adjust this guidance at any time based on the ongoing execution of its business plan. Current and prospective investors are encouraged to perform their own due diligence before buying or selling any of the Company's securities, and are reminded that the foregoing estimates should not be construed as a guarantee of future performance.

Use of non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company's financial results and financial guidance are provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that presentation of operating results using non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of core operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting purposes and to manage the Company's business. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management. The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation, and do not therefore present the full measure of the Company's recorded costs against its net revenue. In addition, the Company's definition of the non-GAAP financial measures below may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures
Non - GAAP Adjusted EBITDA
"Adjusted EBITDA" is defined by NeoGenomics as net income from continuing operations before: (i) interest expense, (ii) tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense, (iv) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and if applicable in a reporting period (v) acquisition-related transaction expenses (vi) non-cash impairments of intangible assets (vii) debt financing costs (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.
Non - GAAP Adjusted Net Income
"Adjusted Net Income" is defined by NeoGenomics as net income available to common shareholders from continuing operations plus: (i) non-cash amortization of customer lists and other intangible assets, (ii) non-cash stock-based compensation expense, (iii) non-cash deemed dividends on preferred stock, (iv) non-cash amortization of preferred stock beneficial conversion feature, and if applicable in a reporting period (v) acquisition related transaction expenses (vi) non-cash impairments of intangible assets (vii) debt financing costs (viii) and other significant non-recurring or non-operating (income) or expenses.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS
"Adjusted Diluted EPS" is defined by NeoGenomics as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Shares outstanding. Adjusted Diluted Shares outstanding is the sum of Diluted shares outstanding and the weighted average number of common shares that would be outstanding if the preferred stock were converted into common stock on the original issue date based on the number of days such common shares would have been outstanding in the reporting period. In addition, if GAAP Net Income is negative and Adjusted Net Income is positive, Adjusted Diluted Shares will also include any options or warrants that would be outstanding as dilutive instruments using the treasury stock method.
Basis for Non-GAAP Adjustments
NeoGenomics basis for excluding certain expenses (income) from GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Guidance to Corresponding GAAP Measures
2017 net income available to common stockholders calculated in accordance with GAAP will be impacted by certain non-cash charges, including: (i) expenses related to variable stock-based compensation, (ii) approximately $7.0 million of expense related to the amortization of customers lists and other intangibles from the Clarient acquisition, (iii) approximately $3.7 million of deemed preferred stock dividends, and (iv) approximately $6.8 million for the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature related to the preferred stock issued in connection with the Clarient acquisition. These non-cash charges have been included in GAAP net income (loss) available to common shareholders and GAAP net income (loss) per share; however, they have been removed from Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Share.
