An updated corporate presentation and Q4 ’22 supplemental presentation were posted to https://ir.lifemd.com/#/ following the market close.

- Fourth quarter consolidated Gross Margin of 86%, up from 80% in the same year-ago period.

- Achieved Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA profit in the fourth quarter for the first-time in LifeMD history totaling $631 thousand as compared to a loss of $(8.2) million in the same year-ago period (see definition of this non-GAAP financial measure and reconciliation to GAAP, below).
- Fourth quarter Adjusted EPS of $0.02, up 107% versus same year-ago period (see definition of this non-GAAP financial measure and reconciliation to GAAP, below).

- Consolidated revenue of $119.0 million, an increase of 28% over the prior year.
- Gross Margin of 84%, up from 81% in the prior year.
- Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $48.6 million or $(1.57) per share, as compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $61.8 million or $(2.29) per share in the prior year.

Q4 and Recent Operational Highlights
- Improved leverage of Selling and Marketing expenses, with fourth quarter expenses as a percentage of revenue reducing to 62%, a 1,500-basis point improvement versus the same year-ago period.
- Finished FY 2022 with approximately 7,000 Virtual Primary Care (VPC) subscribers, ahead of previous guidance of 5,000 VPC subscribers.
- Telehealth active subscribers increased 22% to approximately 169,000.
- WorkSimpli active subscribers increased 64% to approximately 168,000.
- Reduced blended telehealth Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) by 18% versus year-ago period.
- Following multiple WorkSimpli buyout bids in the previously guided range, LifeMD elected to retain our 73.6% ownership given the strong outperformance of the business versus our previous expectations, growth prospects and EBITDA contribution. We currently expect Full Year 2023 WorkSimpli EBITDA margins in 2023 of 20% or greater due to continued growth, differentiation and diversification in their workplace services platform. We expect that retaining this asset will allow for the creation of significantly more shareholder value than a 2022 divestiture would have.
Subsequent Events
- Executed a debt financing agreement with Avenue Capital for credit facilities totaling up to $40 million of funding capacity with $15 million funded at closing. Proceeds provide a significant source of long-term capital for LifeMD and allow us to maintain a strong balance sheet to execute against strategic growth and profitability plans.
- Hired Jessica Friedeman as Chief Marketing Officer of LifeMD, Inc. Jessica served as Chief Marketing Officer of Healthgrades, and brings twenty years of direct-to-consumer and business-to-business healthcare marketing experience. Jessica drove the end-to-identity creation of Mercury Healthcare in tandem with the divestiture of Healthgrades’ online marketplace division, and optimized sales execution with a focus on market fit that was integral in the subsequent acquisition of Mercury Healthcare by WebMD.
- Appointed Dr. Joan LaRovere to LifeMD’s Board of Directors. Dr. LaRovere is a clinical leader, physician, cardiac expert and social entrepreneur who has spent the last 15 years in leadership roles at two of the top hospitals in the world, London’s Royal Brompton Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital. She also is an operating partner at iSelect Fund and brings to LifeMD deep expertise in digital health, artificial intelligence and data analytics.

“The fourth quarter of 2022 was encapsulated by the achievement of a significant milestone for the Company, our first-ever quarterly achievement of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA profit. Through the hard work of our various employees and management, we continued to deliver the superior products, services and customer care that our 300,000+ customers across both our Telehealth and WorkSimpli segments, continue to choose us for. We have also remained highly focused on improving the efficiencies and economics of all our businesses during this challenging macro environment, as evidenced by improvements in Customer Acquisition Costs (CACs), an increase in Gross Margins to record levels, and a significant reduction in cash burn. We also continued to focus on our key strategic priorities of delivering comprehensive virtual primary care and building long-term partnerships with healthcare organizations seeking to streamline access to care for patients,” said Justin Schreiber, Chairman & CEO of LifeMD. “Additionally, we took an important step to shore up the Company’s long-term balance sheet by executing a significant institutional financing arrangement with Avenue Capital following our voluntary decision to retain WorkSimpli given its continued overperformance. This capital, combined with our strong operational performance, positions us well for the numerous growth opportunities ahead in both our legacy lifestyle healthcare businesses and our Virtual Primary Care business, which we launched in 2022 and is performing beyond our initial expectations. Looking ahead we believe 2023 will be a breakout year for LifeMD with a return to significant top-line growth and the achievement of consistent and growing profitability.”LifeMD CFO Marc Benathen, commented: “We are pleased to have delivered upon our guidance to shareholders to achieve consolidated Adjusted EBITDA profitability in the fourth quarter 2022. We expect to meaningfully build on this profitability in 2023. The achievement of this goal is an extremely important financial milestone for the Company, driven by our continued laser-like focus on operational excellence as is evidenced by the significant reduction in our blended CAC’s, continued improvement in Gross Margins and Operating Expenses as shown through their reduction as a percentage of revenue. With the recent closing of the Avenue deal significantly bolstering our balance sheet, coupled with the attainment of profitability, and expected elimination of cash burn by middle of the year, we are well positioned to return LifeMD back to strong double-digit growth while growing the bottom line. This is particularly evident in Full Year 2023 guidance which calls for year-over-year revenue growth of approximately 20-25% and Adjusted EBITDA profitability of $12-$18 million.”

For the First Quarter 2023, the Company expects:- Consolidated Revenue to total between $31.0 million and $32.0 million

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS as non-GAAP financial measures to clarify and enhance an understanding of past performance. We believe that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that these financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We use certain financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) attributable to common shareholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion, financing transaction expense, foreign currency translation, inventory valuation, sales return reserves and deferred revenue adjustments, litigation costs, gain on debt forgiveness, preferred stock dividends, acquisition costs, severance expenses, goodwill impairment charges, change in fair value of contingent consideration and stock-based compensation expense. We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net loss attributable to common shareholders, its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Adjusted EPS is defined as the diluted net loss attributable to LifeMD, Inc common shareholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, accretion, financing transaction expense, foreign currency translation, inventory valuation, sales return reserves and deferred revenue adjustments, litigation costs, preferred stock dividends, acquisition costs, severance expenses, goodwill impairment charges, change in fair value of contingent consideration and stock-based compensation expense. We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EPS to Diluted loss per share attributable to LifeMD, Inc common shareholders, its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
We believe the above financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. However, our use of the terms Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS may vary from that of others in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS should not be considered as an alternative to net loss before taxes, net loss per share, operating loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of performance.
