MOBILE, Ala.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CPSI (NASDAQ: CPSI), a healthcare solutions company, today announced results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

GAAP net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $2.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared with $2.7 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Net debt at September 30, 2022, was $124.8 million compared to $98.1 million at September 30, 2021.
Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $243.4 million, compared with total revenues of $206.6 million for the prior-year period. GAAP net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $13.4 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared with $13.0 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Matt Chambless, chief financial officer of CPSI, commented, “We were pleased to deliver 18% revenue growth year-over-year, which was driven largely by the contribution from Healthcare Resource Group, Inc., which we acquired in March. Our TruBridge segment once again saw outstanding cross-selling traction, as we increased TruBridge sales to the CPSI customer base by 30% sequentially and tripled our pipeline over the prior-year period. We are also thrilled to appoint new leaders of our business units who will propel CPSI toward its next chapter. This new alignment of our leadership team will more effectively support our core EHR base with value-added tools for revenue cycle management and patient engagement that will help our customers thrive in an uncertain and evolving healthcare environment.”

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “GAAP.” However, management believes that, in order to properly understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to financial performance measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and impact on continuing operations. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in our ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations, or reduce management’s ability to make useful forecasts. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find these non-GAAP financial measures helpful in analyzing our financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to our peers and competitors.
As such, to supplement the GAAP information provided, we present in this press release and during the live webcast discussing our financial results the following non‑GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income, and Non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”).
We calculate each of these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:
Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income as reported and adjusts for (i) deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments arising from purchase allocation adjustments related to business acquisitions; (ii) depreciation expense; (iii) amortization of software development costs; (iv) amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; (v) stock-based compensation; (vi) severance and other non‑recurring charges; (vii) interest expense and other, net; (viii) gain on contingent consideration; and (ix) the provision for income taxes.
Non-GAAP net income – Non-GAAP net income consists of GAAP net income as reported and adjusts for (i) deferred revenue purchase accounting adjustments arising from purchase allocation adjustments related to business acquisitions; (ii) amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; (iii) stock-based compensation; (iv) severance and other non-recurring charges; (v) non-operating loss from lease termination (non-cash); (vi) non-cash interest expense; (vii) loss on extinguishment of debt and (viii) the total tax effect of items (i) through (vii).
