Acquisition Activity
- In fiscal 2015, Premier acquired two companies and the remaining outstanding equity interests in a third company for a total of $170.5 million in cash as part of its strategy to enhance existing capabilities, better serve its members and drive long-term growth and value for stockholders. Premier acquired TheraDoc, Inc., a market leading provider of clinical surveillance software, and Aperek, Inc. (formerly Mediclick), a SaaS-based (software as a service) supply chain solutions company focused on purchasing workflow and analytics. Both companies have been integrated into Premier's Performance Services segment. Premier also completed the acquisition of S2S, its direct sourcing business, purchasing the remaining 40% of the outstanding equity interests it didn't already own. S2S is part of the products business within the Supply Chain Services segment.
- On August 4, 2015, Premier announced a definitive agreement to acquire CECity.com, Inc., a privately-held provider of cloud-based performance management, pay-for-value reporting and professional educational services, for $400.0 million. The acquisition closed on August 20, 2015.
- On August 12, 2015, Premier announced that it had acquired Healthcare Insights, LLC for $65.0 million in cash. Healthcare Insights is a market leader in clinical service line analytics, direct costing, budgeting and enhanced labor solutions. The acquisition closed on August 3, 2015.
"We are very pleased with Premier's strong operational and financial accomplishments in fiscal 2015," said Susan DeVore, president and chief executive officer. "Financially, we achieved double-digit consolidated revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth and we look for continued success in fiscal 2016. We attained a 99% retention rate in our group purchasing (GPO) business for the year and a 94% SaaS institutional renewal rate. This strong performance reflects the continuing success of our differentiated business model in delivering consistent and comprehensive value to our member healthcare providers as they strive to drive down costs, improve quality and safety, and transition to population health management.
"During the year, we continued to expand business across our supply chain and performance services platforms, ending fiscal 2015 with approximately 3,600 member hospitals and 120,000 alternate sites, and generating approximately $44 billion in purchasing volume through our GPO," DeVore continued. "We successfully integrated acquisitions, including TheraDoc, Aperek, SYMMEDRx, MEMdata and Meddius, and we pursued new businesses that meet the immediate and future needs of our members, evidenced in the acquisitions earlier this month of CECity, and Healthcare Insights. We believe these acquisitions position Premier for accelerated long-term growth and further solidify our leadership position in healthcare performance improvement through enhanced supply chain and performance services capabilities."

For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015, Premier generated net revenue of $266.6 million, an increase of 13%, from net revenue of $235.5 million for the same period a year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA of $100.1 million increased 7% from $93.2 million for the same period last year. The increase was predominantly driven by net administrative fees revenue growth in Supply Chain Services and growth in the company's Performance Services segment, primarily SaaS-based subscriptions and renewals.
Adjusted fully distributed net income for the fiscal fourth quarter rose to $53.0 million, or $0.36 per fully diluted share, from $49.9 million, or $0.34 per fully diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income, adjusted for non-recurring and non-cash items, attributable to all shareholders as if all Class B shareholders exchange their Class B common units and associated Class B common shares for Class A common shares, and reflects income taxes at an estimated effective rate of 40% on 100% of pretax income.
Net income for the quarter totaled $32.1 million, compared with $66.6 million for the same quarter a year ago. The decline is attributable to higher income tax expense primarily due to deferred tax expense as a result of the establishment of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets at Premier Healthcare Solutions, Inc., one of the corporate subsidiaries, and to a non-cash charge of $15.2 million related to the disposal of long-lived assets primarily associated with the integration of the TheraDoc acquisition with the company's existing safety applications. Fiscal fourth-quarter net income attributable to shareholders totaled $8.0 million, compared with $8.9 million for the prior year. In accordance with GAAP, fiscal 2015 and 2014 fourth-quarter net income attributable to shareholders requires non-cash adjustments of $(92.1) million and $482.5 million, respectively, to reflect the change in the redemption value of the limited partners Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. These non-cash adjustments result from changes in the company's stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company's business operations. After this non-cash adjustment based on the change in stock price, the company reported a GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of $2.24 per fully diluted share, compared with GAAP net income attributable to shareholders of $15.09 per fully diluted share a year ago. (See income statement in the tables section of this press release.)
Segment Results
Supply Chain Services
For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Supply Chain Services segment generated net revenue of $196.2 million, an increase of 14% from $172.8 million a year ago. Revenue growth was driven by strong performance of both the company's group purchasing organization (GPO) and products businesses. GPO net administrative fees revenue of $119.9 million increased 8% from a year ago, reflecting the further contract penetration of existing members, the continuing impact of recruitment and conversion of new members, and the impact of increased patient utilization. Product sales of $75.6 million increased 23% from a year ago due to the ongoing expansion of member utilization of the company's direct sourcing and specialty pharmacy businesses.
Supply Chain Services segment adjusted EBITDA of $101.0 million for the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter increased 7% from $94.4 million for the same period a year ago. The increase reflects growth in net administrative fees revenue.
Performance Services
For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Performance Services segment generated net revenue of $70.3 million, an increase of 12% from $62.6 million for the same quarter last year. Revenue growth was driven by PremierConnect SaaS-based (software-as-a-service) subscriptions and renewals, and includes contributions from TheraDoc and Aperek, which were acquired late in the fiscal first quarter and integrated into the PremierConnect platform, as well as from PremierConnect Quality, PremierConnect Population Health and PremierConnect Enterprise offerings.
Performance Services segment adjusted EBITDA was $22.5 million for the fiscal 2015 fourth quarter, an increase of 15% from $19.5 million for the same quarter last year. The growth in adjusted EBITDA reflects increased revenue from new PremierConnect SaaS-based products, including TheraDoc and Aperek, and effective management of segment operating expenses relative to net revenue growth.
Results of Operations for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015
Note: Comparisons of GAAP results for the full 2015 and 2014 fiscal years are impacted by the changes associated with the Reorganization and IPO, as described below, and therefore, management believes they do not provide meaningful year-over-year comparisons. Performance Services segment results are not impacted by non-GAAP pro forma results.
The company generated net revenue of $1,007.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, an increase of 16% from non-GAAP pro forma net revenue of $869.3 million last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year totaled $393.2 million, an increase of 12% from non-GAAP pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $351.0 million in the prior year. Adjusted fully distributed net income increased 10% to $208.2 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, from non-GAAP pro forma adjusted fully distributed net income of $188.6 million, or $1.30 per diluted share, last year.
On a GAAP-comparison basis, net revenue of $1,007.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 increased 11% from net revenue of $910.5 million for the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $393.2 million in fiscal 2015, compared with adjusted EBITDA of $392.3 million for the prior year. Net income of $234.8 million compared with $332.6 million for the prior year. Net income attributable to shareholders totaled $38.7 million, compared with $28.3 million the prior year. In accordance with GAAP, full-year fiscal 2015 and 2014 net income attributable to shareholders requires non-cash adjustments of $(904.0) million and $(2,741.6) million, respectively, to reflect the change in the redemption value of the limited partners Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. These non-cash adjustments result from changes in the company's stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company's business operations. After this non-cash adjustment based on the change in stock price, the company reported a GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of $24.25 per fully diluted share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, compared with a GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of $105.85 per fully diluted share a year ago. (See income statement in the tables section of this press release.)
Supply Chain Services segment net revenue for fiscal 2015 increased 16% to $738.3 million from non-GAAP pro forma net revenue of $636.9 million a year earlier. Supply Chain Services segment adjusted EBITDA increased 10%, to $391.2 million from non-GAAP pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $355.2 million for the prior year.
On a GAAP-comparison basis, Supply Chain Services segment net revenue of $738.3 million increased 9% from $678.1 million for fiscal 2014. Segment adjusted EBITDA of $391.2 million decreased 1% from $396.5 million a year ago.
Performance Services segment net revenue for fiscal 2015 increased 16% to $268.8 million from $232.4 million in the previous fiscal year, while segment adjusted EBITDA increased 22% to $90.2 million from $73.9 million.
Cash Flows and Liquidity
Cash provided by operating activities was $364.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, compared with $368.1 million for fiscal 2014. Operating cash flows were slightly lower than last year, primarily due to the addition of member owner revenue share as a result of the Reorganization and IPO effective October 2013. At June 30, 2015, the company's cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term marketable securities totaled $561.9 million, compared with $540.4 million at June 30, 2014, and consisted of $146.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $415.4 million in marketable securities with maturities ranging from three to 24 months.
Free cash flow for the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2015 was $53.9 million, compared with $42.2 million for the same period a year ago. The significant level of free cash flow relative to adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter results from strong performance in the company's Supply Chain Services segment. The company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less distributions to limited partners and purchases of property and equipment (see free cash flow reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities in the tables section of this press release).
At June 30, 2015, there was no outstanding balance on the company's unsecured $750 million, five-year revolving credit facility. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the company used approximately $315 million in cash and $150 million in borrowings under the credit facility to fund the acquisitions of CECity and Healthcare Insights.
Fiscal 2016 Outlook and Guidance
Premier believes it is well positioned financially and operationally for fiscal 2016, and is introducing financial guidance for the fiscal year based on the following key assumptions: stable growth in the Supply Chain Services segment through the continued, but more normalized growth of the company's direct sourcing and specialty pharmacy businesses, the addition and contract conversion ramp-up of new GPO members, and deeper penetration of existing members' supply spend; increased product and services sales in the Performance Services segment, including sales and use of SaaS-based products, increased member participation in performance improvement collaboratives and increased demand for advisory services; and the continuation of historically high retention and renewal rates of Premier's GPO and SaaS members.
Guidance assumptions also include the successful closing, as applicable, integration and realization of anticipated financial and operational contributions from acquisitions announced in August 2015, but do not contemplate the impact of any potential future acquisitions. Including the acquisitions announced in August, Premier expects fiscal 2016 capital expenditures of approximately $83 million and a consolidated EBITDA margin approximating 37-38%, as a result of our existing business mix shift and the impact of the CECity and Healthcare Insights acquisitions.
Guidance also assumes performance consistent with the company's current visibility into its annual revenue stream. Approximately $1.0 billion of Premier's fiscal 2016 revenue, prior to contributions from our recent acquisitions, is available under contract, based on Premier's GPO retention and SaaS institutional renewal rates.
Based on the company's current outlook, Premier has established the following financial guidance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016:
| Fiscal 2016 Financial Guidance (1) | ||
| Premier, Inc. introduces full-year fiscal 2016 financial guidance, as follows: | ||
| (in millions, except per share data) | FY 2016 | % YoY Increase |
| Net Revenue: | ||
| Supply Chain Services segment | $792.0 - $813.0 | 7% - 10% |
| Performance Services segment | $346.0 - $355.0 | 29% - 32% |
| Total Net Revenue | $1,138.0 - $1,168.0 | 13% - 16% |
| Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA | $425.0 - $444.0 | 8% - 13% |
| Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed EPS | $1.54 - $1.62 | 8% - 13% |
|
(1) The Company does not reconcile guidance for adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income per-share to net income (loss) or GAAP earnings per share because the Company does not provide guidance for reconciling items between net income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items since certain items that impact net income (loss) are outside of the Company's control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation to net income (loss) or GAAP earnings per share is not available without unreasonable effort. |

"As we look out into fiscal 2016 and beyond, we believe healthcare market trends will continue to shift to value-based payment models, increasing financial risk for provider organizations and physicians, and making the ability to measure and drive quality and performance improvement a critical requirement for future success," DeVore said. "We believe Premier holds a leadership position in this transitioning environment. Our provider-driven business model and aligned member channel enable us to innovate from inside our member health systems, developing and acquiring solutions that deliver immediate value while preparing members and their associated physicians for the alternative payment models rising out of this shifting healthcare landscape. Maintaining and building on this position should enable Premier to achieve our financial objectives, which continue to reflect double-digit revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth on an annualized basis. We plan to continue building on our member value proposition and industry leadership position as we move forward."

Reorganization and Initial Public Offering
On October 1, 2013, Premier completed its IPO by issuing 32,374,751 shares of its Class A common stock at a price of $27.00 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately $821.7 million before expenses. In connection with the IPO, Premier completed the reorganization of the company on October 1, 2013, issuing 112.6 million shares of Class B common stock representing, at that time, 77.7% of the common stock outstanding, and corresponding Class B common units in Premier Healthcare Alliance, L.P. (Premier LP), under which all of the company's operations are conducted, to its member owners.
The company's historical consolidated operating results relating to periods prior to the Reorganization and IPO do not reflect the Reorganization, the IPO and contemplated use of net proceeds from the IPO. Therefore, in addition to presenting the historical actual results, the company presents and discusses non-GAAP pro forma results, which reflect the impact of the company's Reorganization and IPO and the contemplated use of net proceeds from the IPO, to provide a more comparable indication of future expectations.
The key non-GAAP pro forma adjustments include:
- The reorganization, which included the formation of a C-Corporation and the sale to the public of approximately 22.3% of the economic interest in Premier LP indirectly through the issuance of Premier Class A common stock, with the member owners retaining their approximately 77.7% ownership interest in the form of Premier LP Class B common units and an equal number of Premier Class B common stock. As part of the quarterly exchanges completed prior to June 30, 2015, the member owners exchanged approximately 3.4% of their Class B common units and associated Class B common stock. As a result, at June 30, 2015, the public investors, which may include some member owners that have previously exchanged their Class B common units for Class A common stock, owned approximately 26% of the company's combined Class A and Class B common stock, and the member owners owned approximately 74%.
- Payments to each member owner of revenue share from Premier equal to 30% of all gross administrative fees collected.
- Payments due to member owners pursuant to the tax receivable agreement equal to 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in income and franchise taxes, that Premier realizes.
- The further adjustments set forth in the notes to the supplemental non-GAAP pro forma financial information provided below.
Further details of the Reorganization and non-GAAP pro forma adjustments are in Premier's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) shortly after the date of this release, and accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and in the investor relations section of Premier's website at investors.premierinc.com.
Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Measures
Premier uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA, adjusted fully distributed net income, adjusted fully distributed earnings per share, and free cash flow to facilitate a comparison of the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide measures that, when viewed in combination with its results prepared in accordance with GAAP, allow for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company's business than GAAP measures alone. The company believes adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA assist its board of directors, management and investors in comparing the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period by removing the impact of the company's asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of management (taxes), as well as other non-cash (impairment of intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments) and non-recurring items, from operating results.
In addition, adjusted fully distributed net income eliminates the variability of non-controlling interest as a result of member owner exchanges of Class B common stock and corresponding Class B units into shares of Class A common stock (which exchanges are a member owner's cumulative right, but not obligation, which began on October 31, 2014, and occur each quarter thereafter, and are limited to one-seventh of the member owner's initial allocation of Class B common units) and other potentially dilutive equity transactions which are outside of management's control. Adjusted fully distributed net income is defined as net income attributable to PHSI (i) excluding income tax expense, (ii) excluding the effect of non-recurring and non-cash items, (iii) assuming the exchange of all the Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock, which results in the elimination of non-controlling interest in Premier LP, and (iv) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on non-GAAP pro forma fully distributed net income before income taxes at the company's estimated effective income tax rate.
EBITDA is defined as net income before interest and investment income, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization of purchased intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before merger and acquisition related expenses and non-recurring, non-cash or non-operating items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates. Non-recurring items include certain strategic and financial restructuring expenses. Non-operating items include gain or loss on disposal of assets. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as the segment's net revenue less operating expenses directly attributable to the segment, excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of purchased intangible assets, merger and acquisition related expenses and non-recurring or non-cash items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates. Operating expenses directly attributable to the segment include expenses associated with sales and marketing, general and administrative and product development activities specific to the operation of each segment. General and administrative corporate expenses that are not specific to a particular segment are not included in the calculation of segment adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure used by the company and by external users of the company's financial statements.
Management considers adjusted EBITDA an indicator of the operational strength and performance of the company's business. Adjusted EBITDA allows management to assess performance without regard to financing methods and capital structure and without the impact of other matters that management does not consider indicative of the operating performance of the business. Segment adjusted EBITDA is the primary earnings measure used by management to evaluate the performance of the company's business segments.
Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less distributions to limited partners and purchases of property and equipment. Management believes free cash flow is an important measure because it represents the cash that the company generates after payment of tax distributions to limited partners and capital investment to maintain existing products and services as well as development of new and upgraded products and services to support future growth. Free cash flow is important because it allows the Company to enhance shareholder value through acquisitions, partnerships, investments in related or complimentary businesses and debt reduction.

More information on potential factors that could affect Premier's financial results is included from time to time in the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of Premier's periodic and current filings with the SEC, including those discussed under the "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" section of Premier's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, expected to be filed with the SEC shortly after the date of this release, and also made available on Premier's website at investors.premierinc.com. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Premier undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, including as a result of new information or future events that occur after that date.
