  • Company pays down $1.3 million on its credit facility during the quarter
  • Announces 2017 financial guidance
  • Announces cash dividend of $0.05 cents per share

SUWANEE, Ga., April 28, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Digirad Corporation (Nasdaq:DRAD) today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Total revenues for the first quarter were $29.1 million, compared to $31.2 million in the first quarter of the prior year.

Net loss for the first quarter was $2.1 million, or $0.10 net loss per diluted share, compared to net income of $11.6 million, or $0.58 net income per diluted share in the same period in the prior year. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss for the first quarter was $0.2 million, or $0.01 adjusted net loss per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $1.3 million, or $0.07 adjusted net income per diluted share in the same period in the prior year. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $1.8 million, compared to $3.7 million in the same period in the prior year.

Operating cash flow for the first quarter was $1.9 million, compared to $0.7 million in the prior year. Non-GAAP free cash flow was $1.4 million for the first quarter, compared to negative $0.3 million in the same period in the prior year.

Digirad President and CEO Matt Molchan said, “Overall, our core businesses are performing well and within our expectations.  Seasonality impacts us each year in the first quarter, with a little more impact this year than in the prior year.”  Molchan continued, “We have had some challenges recently in our Mobile Healthcare services business, but believe these problems to be confined to the provisional service offering of this business segment. We have addressed these challenges by changing our leadership, operations and sales approach in our Mobile Healthcare services business, focusing on our core customers and improving delivery of our high-quality healthcare services.  With these changes, we are very confident that we will improve on the recent results, and expect to resume growth in 2018. We continue to expect more cash generation in 2017 than in 2016, which we will use to pay down debt and fund our ongoing dividend, both of which we believe deliver value to shareholders.”

The Company also announced a cash dividend of $0.05 cents per share that will be paid on May 30, 2017, to shareholders of record on May 15, 2017.

2017 Financial Guidance

The Company announced its financial guidance for 2017, which is to generate revenues of approximately $125 million, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of between $14 and $15 million, adjusted net income per diluted share of between $0.10 and $0.15, and free cash flow of between $9 and $10 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures by Digirad Corporation

This Digirad news release presents the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted net income (loss),” “adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share,” “adjusted EBITDA”, and "free cash flow". The most directly comparable measure for these non-GAAP financial measures are net income (loss), net income (loss) per diluted share, and operating cash flow. 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.  Free cash flow is calculated by subtracting cash paid for capital expenditures from operating cash flow.

A discussion of the reasons why management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding Digirad's financial condition and results of operations is included as Exhibit 99.2 to Digirad's report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2017.
