Omnicell (OMCL) 8-KOmnicell Announces First Quarter 2024 Results

Randall Lipps, chairman, president, chief executive officer, and founder of Omnicell, said, “We are pleased with the first quarter results that we announced today, which exceeded our previously issued guidance across all key metrics, including revenue, non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP earnings per share.”

“As we have navigated through a challenging customer environment, we have continued to place a priority on innovation. Reflecting this, we recently hosted our customer event, Illuminate 2024, during which we announced new and exciting outcomes-based solutions for our XT automated dispensing systems platform. Key among these is XTExtend, among other recently introduced enhancements for our XT automated dispensing systems that are part of our comprehensive XTAmplify offering, which appears to be resonating very well with our customers,” Mr. Lipps continued.

“Finally, last quarter, we announced that we initiated a holistic review of our business in an effort to identify areas for financial or operational improvement intended to enhance stockholder value. That work is underway, and we are optimistic that when completed, the results of this review will positively impact our performance. We remain confident in Omnicell’s long-term opportunities as we work to transform the pharmacy care delivery model across the continuum of care,” Mr. Lipps concluded.

Total GAAP revenues for the first quarter of 2024 were $246 million, down $44 million, or 15%, from the first quarter of 2023. The year-over-year decrease in total GAAP revenues reflects the impact of a continued challenging environment for some of our health system customers and the timing of our XT Series systems lifecycle, as we are largely through the replacement cycle and seeing demand moderate.

Total non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2024 was $1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $17 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023.

Total non-GAAP EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $11 million. This compares to non-GAAP EBITDA of $27 million for the first quarter of 2023.

As of March 31, 2024, Omnicell’s balance sheet reflected cash and cash equivalents of $512 million, total debt (net of unamortized debt issuance costs) of $570 million, and total assets of $2.28 billion. Cash flows provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2024 totaled $50 million. This compares to cash flows provided by operating activities totaling $13 million in the first quarter of 2023.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $350 million of availability under its revolving credit facility with no outstanding balance.

The Company’s full year 2024 guidance is unchanged. For the full year 2024, the Company expects bookings to be between $750 million and $875 million. The Company expects full year 2024 total revenues to be between $1.045 billion and $1.120 billion. The Company expects full year 2024 product revenues to be between $605 million and $650 million, and full year 2024 service revenues to be between $440 million and $470 million. The Company expects full year 2024 technical services revenues to be between $220 million and $235 million, and full year 2024 Advanced Services revenues to be between $220 million and $235 million. The Company expects full year 2024 non-GAAP EBITDA to be between $90 million and $120 million. The Company expects full year 2024 non-GAAP earnings per share to be between $0.90 and $1.40 per share.

For the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects total revenues to be between $250 million and $260 million. The Company expects second quarter 2024 product revenues to be between $140 million and $145 million, and second quarter 2024 service revenues to be between $110 million and $115 million. The Company expects second quarter 2024 non-GAAP EBITDA to be between $14 million and $20 million. The Company expects second quarter 2024 non-GAAP earnings per share to be between $0.10 and $0.20 per share.

The table below summarizes Omnicell’s second quarter and full year 2024 guidance outlined above.

The Company does not provide guidance for GAAP net income or GAAP earnings per share, nor a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. These forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures do not include certain items, which may be significant, including, but not limited to, unusual gains and losses, costs associated with future restructurings, acquisition-related expenses, and certain tax and litigation outcomes.

(“SEC”), available at www.sec.gov. Forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these risks and uncertainties. Investors and others are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release. Omnicell assumes no obligation to update any such statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changed circumstances, new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

This press release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to Omnicell’s GAAP results, we also consider non-GAAP revenues, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, non-GAAP diluted shares, non-GAAP EBITDA, non-GAAP EBITDA margin, and non-GAAP free cash flow. These non-GAAP results and metrics should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, gross profit, operating expenses, income from operations, net income, net income per diluted share, diluted shares, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We present these non-GAAP results and metrics because management considers them to be important supplemental measures of Omnicell’s performance and refers to such measures when analyzing Omnicell’s strategy and operations.

Our non-GAAP revenues, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, non-GAAP EBITDA, and non-GAAP EBITDA margin are exclusive of certain items to facilitate management’s review of the comparability of Omnicell’s core operating results on a period-to-period basis because such items are not related to Omnicell’s ongoing core operating results as viewed by management. We define our “core operating results” as those revenues recorded in a particular period and the expenses incurred within such period that directly drive operating income in such period. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because, in addition to meaningful supplemental information regarding operating performance, the measures give us a better understanding of how we believe we should invest in research and development, fund infrastructure growth, and evaluate the effectiveness of marketing strategies. In calculating the above non-GAAP results: non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin exclude from their GAAP equivalents items a), b), e), and g) below; non-GAAP operating expenses excludes from its GAAP equivalents items a), b), c), d), e), and g) below; non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP operating margin exclude from their GAAP equivalents items a), b), c), d), e), and g) below; and non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share exclude from their GAAP equivalents items a) through g) below. Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and share-based compensation, as well as excluding certain other non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP EBITDA margin exclude from their GAAP equivalents items a), c), d), e), f), and g) below:

Management adjusts for the above items because management believes that, in general, these items possess one or more of the following characteristics: their magnitude and timing is largely outside of Omnicell’s control; they are unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; they are unusual and we do not expect them to occur in the ordinary course of business; or they are non-operational or non-cash expenses involving stock compensation plans or other items.

We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP revenues, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, non-GAAP EBITDA, and non-GAAP EBITDA margin is warranted for several reasons: 

Set forth below are additional reasons why share-based compensation expense is excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures:

Non-GAAP diluted shares is defined as our GAAP diluted shares, excluding the impact of dilutive convertible senior notes for which the Company is economically hedged through its anti-dilutive convertible note hedge transaction. We believe non-GAAP diluted shares is a useful non-GAAP metric because it provides insight into the offsetting economic effect of the hedge transaction against potential conversion of the convertible senior notes.

Non-GAAP free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for software development for external use and purchases of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is important to enable investors to better understand and evaluate our ongoing operating results and allows for greater transparency in the review and understanding of our overall financial, operational, and economic performance, because free cash flow takes into account certain capital expenditures and cash used for software development necessary to operate our business.

As stated above, we present non-GAAP financial measures because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of performance. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Omnicell’s GAAP results. In the future, we expect to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-GAAP adjustments described above and expect to continue reporting non-GAAP financial measures excluding such items. Some of the limitations in relying on non-GAAP financial measures are: 

A detailed reconciliation between Omnicell’s non-GAAP and GAAP financial results is set forth in the financial tables at the end of this press release. Investors are advised to carefully review and consider this information strictly as a supplement to the GAAP results that are contained in this press release as well as in Omnicell’s other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC.
