Management Commentary
“Record revenues for the fourth quarter were significantly higher than for any quarter in the company’s history, and I congratulate the Sensus team on outstanding Q4 and full-year financial results,” said Joe Sardano, chairman and chief executive officer of Sensus Healthcare. “We are comfortable that this momentum will continue through 2022 as so many of our initiatives are being very well-executed.
“We shipped a record 35 systems during the fourth quarter, including three systems to China, where we resumed active sales this year following the pandemic. China is an important market for us, and we were delighted to receive a license renewal from their Ministry of Health to market the SRT-100 system. This new license runs through December 2026 and covers the sale of our superficial radiation therapy to treat non-melanoma skin cancer and keloids.”
“Our domestic sales were positively impacted by our team’s broad and consistent communication that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services had revalued procedure codes upward, with a meaningful increase in reimbursement for a course of superficial radiation treatment for non-melanoma skin cancer. This revaluation has had a significant impact on customer ROI. In addition, we successfully demonstrated to physicians that SRT is a patient-friendly treatment paradigm, especially important during COVID-19, and provided numerous studies along with support from important medical societies showing cure rates as good as or better than Mohs surgery.”
Mr. Sardano added, “We are highly encouraged by the reception our new fair-market-leasing program has enjoyed to date. Launched in January 2021 in conjunction with improved reimbursement, this program allows physicians to acquire our feature-rich, premium SRT-100 Vision™ system with a positive ROI from treating just two patients per month. We expect the leasing program will support further sales growth.”
“During the fourth quarter we entered into an exclusive U.S. distribution agreement with Mattioli Eng. Italia for its TransDermal Infusion System™ for non-invasive drug delivery. We began marketing this FDA-cleared system for skin rejuvenation treatments, pre-laser treatments, pre- and post-plastic surgery, and other applications, and were delighted that it was highlighted at the Winter Clinical Dermatology Conference in Hawaii. We are pleased with the number and caliber of leads generated at the conference, and look forward to demonstrating the system at the American Academy of Dermatology meeting in Boston at the end of March.”
Mr. Sardano concluded, “We are confident that our sales and earnings trajectory will continue, and with a view toward long-term success we recently announced key executive appointments. We promoted two sales managers to regional vice president positions and promoted Vice President & General Counsel Michael J. Sardano to President & General Counsel. These promotions, along with the market reception to our products, support my optimism for the future of Sensus.”
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $13.0 million, compared with $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The 156% increase was primarily driven by a higher number of units sold as the market continued to reopen.
Cost of sales for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $4.2 million, compared with $1.9 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase was due to higher sales in the 2021 period.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $8.9 million, or 68.0% of revenues, compared with $3.2 million, or 63.4% of revenues, for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increases were primarily driven by the higher number of units sold in 2021, service revenue on installed units, and the impact of COVID-19 on the 2020 quarter.
Selling and marketing expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $1.3 million, unchanged from the fourth quarter of 2020.
General and administrative expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $1.1 million, compared with $0.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation and bad debt expense.
Research and development expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $1.1 million, compared with $0.8 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase was mainly due to higher regulatory expenses.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $5.3 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $5.6 million, compared with $1.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-compensation expense. Please see below for a reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, and the specific reasons these non-GAAP financial measures are provided.
Cash and investments were $14.5 million as of December 31, 2021, compared with $14.9 million as of December 31, 2020. The company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving line of credit both during 2020 and as of December 31, 2021.
Full Year Financial Results
Revenues for 2021 of $27.0 million increased 182% from $9.6 million for 2020, primarily reflecting a higher number of units sold as the market began to reopen. During 2020 the Company was unable to sell effectively due to COVID-19 related travel restrictions and other factors. Sensus believes these factors are gradually subsiding as the healthcare industry has developed and continues to develop effective vaccines and treatments, and as local, state and federal governments ease restrictions. Additionally, technology that enables the global business community to communicate effectively without the need for close proximity is expected to help the Company continue to reach potential clients.
Cost of sales for 2021 were $10.1 million, compared with $4.3 million for 2020, reflecting the higher number of units sold.
Gross profit for 2021 increased 224% to $17.0 million, or 68.2% of revenues, from $5.2 million, or 54.8% of revenues, for 2020. Maintaining this level of gross profit and gross margin in 2022 is largely dependent upon the market’s response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Selling and marketing expense for 2021 was $4.8 million, compared with $5.3 million in 2020, primarily attributable reduced spending on marketing activities and headcount.
General and administrative expense for 2021 was $4.6 million, compared with $4.0 million in 2020, due primarily to higher insurance expense and professional fees.
Research and development expense for 2021 decreased to $3.4 million from $4.2 million in 2020, reflecting lower spending as the Sculptura™ project entered the production phase.
No other income was reported for 2021. Other income, net of $1.4 million for 2020 is primarily attributable to the forgiveness of $757,782 of a loan under the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program and a bargain purchase gain of $588,011 that was recorded as a result of acquisitions.
Net income for 2021 was $4.1 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $(6.8) million, or $(0.42) per share, for 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA for 2021 was $5.1 million, compared with $(5.8) million for 2020.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Sensus Healthcare management uses Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in its analysis of performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, nor should it be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impact of interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation expense, provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of Sensus Healthcare. Non-GAAP financial measures are not formally defined by GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by Sensus Healthcare. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors who follow the practice of some investment analysts who adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude items that may obscure underlying performance and distort comparability. A reconciliation of the GAAP net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the schedule below.
