Management Discussion

Richard DiIorio, chief executive officer of InfuSystem, said, Full year 2020 was a record year for InfuSystem, characterized by net revenue growth of 20%, net income growth of $15.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 44%. Despite the ongoing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business continued to exhibit strength and serves as a testament of our teams commitment and dedication to get the job done under difficult market conditions. I am extremely proud of their exceptional accomplishments made during the year.

The strength of our two operating platforms Integrated Therapy Services (ITS) and Durable Medical Equipment Services (DME) allowed us to successfully navigate the Company through these unprecedented times. The growing importance of home health care was clearly demonstrated in 2020 as our services allow patients to leave the hospital and other medical facilities to continue their medical treatment at home in a safe environment. Our pain management therapy continues to gain traction as we treated a record number of patients in 2020 despite limited access to medical facilities and the broad postponement of elective surgeries during the year. I believe our business model positions InfuSystem for long-term success. Looking ahead, our goal for pain management is to double revenues in each of the next two years and to capture 5% to 10% of the estimated $600 million negative pressure home health care market opportunity in the next three to five years.

Mr. DiIorio continued, We have a very strong and experienced team in place to continue to successfully execute on our strategic business plan. The financial condition of the Company is as strong as it has ever been and was recently improved with a new $75 million credit facility, that enables us to effectively capitalize on strategic growth opportunities as they become available. Our goal is to add and successfully launch a fourth therapy in 2021. Our service platforms are device agnostic and I believe we are operating in a position of strength as we scale up our two platforms with new therapies and products for the coming years.

Looking forward, I am reaffirming our full year 2021 guidance with net revenues to be with the ranges of $107 million to $110 million; Adjusted EBITDA to be within the range of $29 million to $30 million; and operating cash flow between the range of $21 million to $23 million. Our guidance reflects our best estimates given the current market conditions. I am confident InfuSystem is well positioned to meet the rising demand for in-home health care services as we focus on the successful execution of our growth strategy to expand our two operating platforms with new therapies and improving patient outcomes in 2021 and beyond, concluded Mr. DiIorio.

2020 Fourth Quarter Financial Review

Results of operations

Net revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 were $24.7 million, an increase of $3.0 million, or 14%, compared to $21.7 million for the prior year fourth quarter. The increase was due to continued market penetration in Oncology, a strong market demand for infusion pumps in the DME Services segment and growth in both pain management and the new Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT).

ITS net revenue, of $15.7 million during the 2020 fourth quarter increased $1.3 million, or 9.4%, as compared to the same prior year period. This increase was primarily due to favorable changes in the competitive environment for oncology services. The increase in net revenues for pain management and net revenue for NPWT, which was not offered in the prior year fourth quarter, modestly contributed to the overall growth in net revenue but were significant on a percentage basis. On a combined basis these therapies added an additional $0.4 million in revenue, during the 2020 fourth quarter, and grew by over 56% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.

DME Services net revenue during the fourth quarter of 2020 of $9.0 million increased $1.7 million, or 23%, as compared to the same prior year period. This performance was driven by strong market demand for infusion pumps attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, expansion of our market share with national home infusion service providers and the addition of new devices to our product offerings stemming from new partnerships with certain device manufacturers. During the 2020 fourth quarter these activities mainly benefited rental revenues, which increased by $1.1 million as compared to the same prior year period. Sales of new and pre-owned medical equipment increased by $0.4 million during the 2020 fourth quarter as compared to the 2019 fourth quarter.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2020 of $15.0 million increased $2.0 million, or 16%, from $12.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Gross margin increased to 60.7%, during this period as compared to 59.6% during the prior year fourth quarter, an increase of 1.1%. These improvements were driven by the increase in net revenues, improved operating leverage and favorable revenue mix. Both operating segments contributed to these improvements.

ITS gross profit was $10.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2020, an increase of $0.7 million, or 7.4%, compared to the same prior year period. ITS gross margin decreased to 65.5%, a decrease of 1.2% from the same prior year period, mainly due to pump repair costs and partially offset by improved collection thruput.

DME Services gross profit during the fourth quarter of 2020 was $4.7 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 40%, over the same prior year period. The DME gross margin increased to 52.2%, compared to 45.8%, an increase of 6.4%, from the same prior year period. The improvement was primarily due to the increase in proportionally higher net revenues from equipment rentals, which typically have higher margins than other types of DME revenue such as sales of new medical equipment.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $10.2 million, an increase of 27% from $8.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase of $2.2 million was largely due to an increase in employee compensation reflecting higher staff levels supporting the growth in revenue volumes over the past 12 months, increases in short and long-term incentive compensation and annual inflation.

During the fourth quarter of 2020 the Company recorded a tax benefit totaling $9.9 million. This included a benefit associated with the reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance totaling $11.2 million resulting from managements conclusion that the allowance was no longer needed since, as of December 31, 2020, the Company had generated significant pre-tax income on a three-year cumulative basis prompting management to assess available positive and negative evidence regarding the recovery of our net deferred tax assets. Due to this assessment, it was determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will recognize the benefits of its federal and state net deferred tax assets. Without the valuation allowance reversal, the Company would have recorded a provision for income taxes of $1.5 million which would have represented an effective tax rate of 19.4%. This adjusted effective tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate mainly due to permanent differences in the amounts of equity compensation expense recognized for book versus tax purposes.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $10.7 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, an improvement of $9.9 million compared to the same prior year period, which included the favorable benefit of the deferred tax valuation allowance reversal discussed above. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $6.2 million, or 24.9% of net revenue, and increased by $0.8 million or 14% over Adjusted EBITDA for the same prior year quarter of $5.4 million, or 24.9% of prior period net revenue.

Balance sheet, cash flows and liquidity

During the fourth quarter of 2020, operating cash flow increased to $7.6 million, a 75% increase over the prior year fourth quarter. The increase was primarily a result of a significant increase in net income, as adjusted for noncash items, and a reduction in working capital during the 2020 fourth quarter as compared to an increase during the same prior year period. Similar to the trend during the 2020 third quarter, working capital decreased during the 2020 fourth quarter to return to normal operating levels after having increased during the first half of 2020 as a result of our COVID-19 preparedness initiatives. Our capital expenditures, which include purchases of medical devices, totaled $4.1 million during the 2020 fourth quarter representing a $2.1 million reduction as compared to the same prior year period.

The favorable cash flow during the fourth quarter of 2020 increased our available liquidity. Our net debt, a non-GAAP measure (calculated as total debt of $38.8 million less cash and cash equivalents of $9.6 million) as of December 31, 2020 was $29.2 million representing a reduction of $3.7 million during the 2020 fourth quarter as compared with the end of the 2020 third quarter amount.

Full Year 2021 Guidance

InfuSystem is reaffirming its annual guidance for the full year 2021 with net revenues estimated to be within the range of $107.0 million to $110.0 million; Adjusted EBITDA estimated to be within the range of $29.0 million to $30.0 million; and operating cash flow projected to be within the range of $21.0 million to $23.0 million. The Company is forecasting Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-GAAP) to be 27% for the year. Additionally, the Company is providing guidance on investing cash flows, which includes cash used to purchase medical devices and other capital expenditures and cash provided by the sale of used equipment, for the full year 2021 to be within the range of $12 million to $15 million.

The full year 2021 guidance reflects managements current expectation for operational performance, given the current market conditions, as well as various COVID-19 pandemic-related uncertainties. The Company cannot predict the degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately, negatively or positively, impact future business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. It may also heighten other risks to which the Company is subject, including risks discussed in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. The financial guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties applicable to all forward-looking statements as described elsewhere in this press release.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains information prepared in conformity with GAAP as well as non-GAAP financial information. Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and net debt. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release provide useful information to the Company's management, investors, and other interested parties about the Company's operating performance because they allow them to understand and compare the Company's operating results during the current periods to the prior year periods in a more consistent manner. This non-GAAP information should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and similarly titled non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently by other companies. The Company calculates those non-GAAP measures by adjusting for non-recurring or non-core items that are not part of the normal course of business and that the Companys management does not believe will have similar comparable year-over-year items or for non-operating items. A reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the accompanying schedule, titled "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation" below. Future period non-GAAP guidance includes adjustments for items not indicative of our core operations, which may include, without limitation, items included in the accompanying schedule below. Such adjustments may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments, as well as nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated changes, expenses or gains or other items that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations. The exact amounts of these adjustments are not currently determinable but may be significant. It is therefore not practicable to provide the comparable GAAP measures or reconcile this non-GAAP guidance to the most comparable GAAP measures.
