2023 Guidance
Full-year 2023 revenue guidance is increased to a range of $615-$625 million, up from a previous range of $540-$550 million.
Full-year 2023 adjusted EBITDA1 guidance is increased to a range of $50-$55 million, up from a previous range of $48-$53 million.
Lee Bienstock, Chief Executive Officer of DocGo, commented, “The third quarter marked our strongest ever growth, and I am extremely proud of the focus our team has brought to expanding our suite of services, our operational execution, and our financial performance. During the quarter, we surpassed 7.5 million total patient interactions since inception while leveraging a workforce that has now grown to over six thousand employees and agency staff – more than double since I joined the company in March of 2022. We intend to continue to innovate our care delivery model, work to help bring high quality healthcare to those who need it most so they can enjoy their best possible quality of life, and deliver strong growth across our entire business.”
Norm Rosenberg, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of DocGo, added, “As expected, we experienced significant earnings leverage in the third quarter due to our strong top line growth. While we did experience higher costs associated with the aggressive ramp-up of new projects, we are encouraged by the net margin and adjusted EBITDA margin expansion we witnessed during the period and expect further improvements in Q4 and beyond. The decline in cash balance was driven by substantial receivables associated with the large HPD project under which payments have commenced. We will be providing formal 2024 guidance in the coming months but expect continued strong growth in 2024.”

1
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We have not reconciled our adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management’s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide an outlook for the comparable GAAP measure (net income). Forward-looking estimates of adjusted EBITDA are made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted herein.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information on these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

The Company defines backlog as projects that have been awarded, but not yet started or fully rolled out.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following information provides definition and reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company has provided this non-GAAP financial information, which is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in this earnings release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release. The non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules because it excludes certain amounts included in net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, adjusted EBITDA is arrived at by taking reported GAAP net income and adding back the following items: net interest expense (income), income tax provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, other (income) expense, non-cash equity-based compensation, certain one-time legal settlements, and certain one-time expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and other corporate activities, beyond those that are typically incurred.
The Company’s management believes that its adjusted EBITDA measure is useful in evaluating DocGo’s operating performance, as the calculation of this measure generally eliminates the effect of financing and income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions, as well as other items of a non-recurring and/or non-cash nature. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of GAAP cash flow, as this measure does not consider certain cash-based expenses, such as payments for taxes or debt service.
Management believes that using adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP measures such as net income assists investors in getting a more complete picture of the Company’s financial results and operations, affording them with a more complete view of what management considers to be the Company’s core operating performance as well as offering the ability to assess such performance as compared with that of prior periods and management’s public guidance. While many companies use adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure, not all companies use identical calculations for determining adjusted EBITDA. As such, DocGo’s presentation of adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA margin is considered a non-GAAP measure under SEC rules. It is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenue. Management believes using adjusted EBITDA margin in conjunction with GAAP measures, such as gross profit margin and/or net income margin, is useful to investors because it assists investors in getting a more complete view of what management considers the Company’s core operating performance, as expressed in marginal terms. While many companies use adjusted EBITDA margin as a performance measure, not all companies use identical calculations for determining adjusted EBITDA margin. As such, DocGo’s presentation of adjusted EBITDA margin might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
The table below reflects the reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA and net income margin to adjusted EBITDA margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, as well as the second quarter of 2023:
