The results for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 include the results of the recent acquisition of DMS Health, which closed on January 1, 2016.

Digirad President and CEO Matt Molchan said, “We are very pleased with our results for the quarter, where we experienced exceptional product sales performance, as well as great performance from our service businesses, capping off a transformational year for Digirad.”

Molchan continued, “I am also pleased to report we have completed all of our operational integration activities related to the DMS Health acquisition, and will now be focusing our efforts on leveraging our combined resources as we move forward. Additionally, since entering our credit facility at the beginning of the year, we have paid down $11.7 million of the initial balance, including three extra principal payments. We continue to generate significant cash flow to maintain our stable dividend, fund organic growth and pursue accretive acquisitions.”

The Company previously announced a cash dividend of $0.05 cents per share that will be paid on February 28, 2017, to shareholders of record on February 15, 2017.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures by Digirad Corporation

This Digirad news release presents the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted net income,” “adjusted net income per diluted share,” and “adjusted EBITDA.” The most directly comparable measure for these non-GAAP financial measures are net income and diluted net income per share. The Company has included below unaudited adjusted financial information, which presents the Company's results of operations after excluding acquired intangible asset amortization, goodwill impairment, acquisition related contingent consideration adjustments, investment impairment loss, transaction and integration costs associated with DMS Health Technologies, and non-recurring related income tax adjustments.  Further excluded in the measure of adjusted EBITDA are interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation.
