Management Commentary:

“The record results seen in the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2022 are directly attributable to the expansion of our patient-centric ecosystem into favorable geographies across the United States through our strategic growth initiatives. Despite an ambitious acquisition pace and inflationary operating environment, I am very pleased with our ability to grow our revenue by 37% and maintain above 20% margins for fiscal year 2022 by continuing to implement our steady operating processes and integration activities. As a healthcare organization with a concentration on respiratory treatment, we feel well protected from potential economic challenges given the nature of our business and sector,” said CEO and Chairman Greg Crawford.

“Quipt is in the best position in its history, with continued growth in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, continued margin expansion, a strong balance sheet, and a provider of in-home clinical respiratory care, now providing services to 200,000 active patients in 19 U.S. states. We anticipate continued growth in 2023 due to favorable regulatory conditions, persistently high demand for respiratory products and services, robust demographic trends, and our continued operating performance seen throughout the business. Moreover, our current acquisition pipeline and our robust balance sheet provides us with significant opportunity focused on the expanding demand for at-home clinical respiratory care.”

Chief Financial Officer Hardik Mehta added, “We are extremely proud of our record financial and operating performance in fiscal year 2022, and our ability to sustain an Adjusted EBITDA margin above 20% is a tremendous accomplishment given the current operating climate. We surpassed $160 million in Run-Rate Revenue (defined below) in fiscal Q4 and our continued progress in strategically building scale utilizing the infrastructure we have in place is producing consistent financial results, inclusive of over 77% of our revenue being classified as recurring. In real time, we see very positive trends as it relates to our ongoing hiring initiatives with a focus on our sales force and significant easing of existing supply chain constraints. Our strong financial position enables us to focus on strategic acquisition candidates that can expand our company into favorable geographic areas in the United States, and we continue to remain confident in our continued growth and financial performance.”

Pre-Released Financial Metrics

This press release contains certain pre-released fourth quarter and full year financial metrics. The fourth quarter and full year financial metrics contained in this press release are preliminary and represent the most current information available to the Company's management, as financial closing procedures for the three months and year ended September 30, 2022 are not yet complete. The Company's actual consolidated audited financial statements for such period will be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and ‎available at www.sec.gov, and with ‎the ‎securities regulatory authorities in certain provinces of Canada and ‎available at www.sedar.com, on or before the filing deadline of December 29, 2022, and may result in material changes to the financial metrics summarized in this press release (including by any one financial metric, or all of the financial metrics, being below or above the figures indicated) as a result of the completion of normal quarter and year end accounting procedures and adjustments, and also what one might expect to be in the final consolidated financial statements based on the financial metrics summarized in this press release. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in this press release are based upon reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from these expectations.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release refers to “Run-Rate Revenue”, “Recurring Revenue” and “Adjusted EBITDA”, which are non-GAAP and non-IFRS financial measures that do not have standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP or IFRS. The Company’s presentation of these financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. These financial measures are intended to provide additional information to investors concerning the Company’s performance.

Run-Rate Revenue as used in this press release is calculated as total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 of $40 million multiplied by four, or $160 million.

Recurring Revenue as used in this press release is calculated as rentals of medical equipment of $69.2 million plus sales of respiratory resupplies of $38.5 million for a total of $107.7 million, divided by total revenues of $139.9 million, or 77%.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of derivative financial liabilities, stock-based compensation, other income from government grant, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on settlement of shares to be issues, and acquisition-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure the Company uses as an indicator of financial health and excludes several items which may be useful in the consideration of the financial condition of the Company, including interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, goodwill impairment and change in fair value of debentures and financial derivatives. The following table shows our Non-IFRS measure (Adjusted EBITDA) reconciled to our net income for the following indicated periods:

 Year ended Year ended

Management uses each of these non-IFRS measures as a key metric in the evaluation of the Company’s performance and the consolidated financial results. The Company believes that these non-IFRS measures are useful to investors in their assessment of the operating performance and the valuation of the Company. In addition, these non-IFRS measures address questions the Company routinely receives from analysts and investors and, in order to assure that all investors have access to similar data, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all investors. However, non-IFRS financial measures are not prepared in accordance with IFRS, and the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies and should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.
