Premier Inc. Reports Fiscal 2019 Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results


Premier Inc. (NASDAQ: PINC) today reported financial results for the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter and full year ended June 30, 2019.

The company adopted new revenue recognition standard ASC 606 on July 1, 2018, in conjunction with the beginning of fiscal 2019, using the modified retrospective approach and did not restate prior periods. Therefore, fiscal 2019 results of operations under the new revenue standard ASC 606 are compared with fiscal 2018 results under the previous revenue standard ASC 605 in the body of this press release, and the comparisons are not necessarily meaningful. However, solely for informational purposes, current period results under the previous standard are included in the tables at the back of this press release.

On May 6, 2019, the company announced that it committed to a plan to sell certain assets of its specialty pharmacy business and to discontinue operations of, and wind down and exit from the specialty pharmacy business. On June 7, 2019, the company closed the transaction. As such, and unless stated otherwise, all results presented in the following release reflect those of continuing operations. A table showing the quarterly impact of discontinued operations is included in this press release.

"Premier's financial performance met management's expectations for the fourth quarter and full year as we continued our close collaboration with more than 4,000 member hospitals and health systems and approximately 175,000 other providers and organizations, working together to reduce costs, improve quality and safety and prepare for America's ongoing transition to value-based healthcare," said Susan DeVore, chief executive officer. "Operationally, we remain focused on providing our member health systems with best-in-class solutions and compelling value, underscored by our 97% retention rate and more than $61 billion in contract volume in our group purchasing (GPO) business for the year. We also achieved a 96% SaaS institutional renewal rate within our Performance Services segment, demonstrating the continued strength of our unique and value-added offerings.

"Looking ahead, we expect the challenging environment and market uncertainties to persist through fiscal 2020 as the nation enters a presidential election year," DeVore continued. "We have factored these continuing uncertainties into our fiscal 2020 guidance, which projects modest year-over-year consolidated growth, and we are focused on appropriately managing our businesses and expenses as we continue to invest in the future. Importantly, we believe Premier, as a trusted partner to the nation's largest health systems, and with strong, diverse and innovative capabilities, is well positioned for continued success. We are operating from a position of financial strength, characterized by our flexible balance sheet and strong free cash flow. We are committed to growing and expanding our relationships with member health systems, further refining our supply chain and performance services offerings to deliver additional value for our customers, while creating long-term value for our stockholders."

(a) Bolded measures correspond to company guidance.
(b) Earnings per share attributable to stockholders excludes the adjustment of redeemable limited partners' capital to redemption amount and the net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Premier LP if Class B common stock is determined to be dilutive. Likewise, earnings per share attributable to stockholders includes the adjustment of redeemable limited partners' capital to redemption amount and the net income attributable to non-controlling interest in Premier LP if Class B common stock is determined to be antidilutive.
(c) See attached supplemental financial information for reconciliation of reported GAAP results to Non-GAAP results.

For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2019, Premier generated GAAP net revenue of $316.2 million, compared to net revenue of $312.6 million for the same period a year ago.

GAAP net income for the fiscal fourth quarter was $70.2 million, compared with $101.0 million a year ago. In accordance with GAAP, fiscal 2019 and 2018 fourth-quarter net income attributable to stockholders includes non-cash adjustments of $(297.0) million and $(353.7) million, respectively, to reflect the change in the redemption value of limited partners' Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. These non-cash adjustments result primarily from changes in the number of Class B common units outstanding and the company's stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company's business operations. After these non-cash adjustments, the company reported a net loss attributable to stockholders of $264.4 million, or $4.28 per diluted share, compared with $323.1 million, or $6.17 per diluted share, a year ago. See "Calculation of GAAP Earnings per Share" in the income statement section of this press release.

Fiscal fourth-quarter non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $139.9 million compared to $147.7 million for the same period the prior year.

Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income for the fiscal fourth quarter of $86.3 million compared to $94.7 million for the same period a year ago. Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share totaled $0.68, compared with $0.70 for the same period a year ago. Adjusted fully distributed earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents net income, adjusted for non-recurring and non-cash items, attributable to all stockholders as if all Class B stockholders exchanged their Class B common units and associated Class B common shares for Class A common shares.

Segment Results

Supply Chain Services
For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2019, Supply Chain Services segment net revenue was $227.0 million, compared with $217.8 million a year ago. Net administrative fees revenue of $170.2 million increased from the preceding quarter while decreasing 1% from the year-ago period, which benefited from higher-than-anticipated recoveries of past-due net administrative fees and the timing of cash collections ahead of the July 1, 2018 adoption of the new ASC 606 revenue recognition standard. Net administrative fees revenue in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter under the previous revenue recognition standard totaled $172.3 million, basically unchanged from a year ago.

Products revenue was $54.7 million, compared with $43.8 million a year ago, primarily driven by growth in certain commodity product categories of the direct sourcing business as well as sales associated with aggregated purchasing of products.

Supply Chain Services segment non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter was $141.9 million, compared with $142.1 million for the same period a year ago. Direct sourcing gross profit growth resulting primarily from increased sales of higher-margin products was primarily offset by increased investments in the company's recently launched E-Commerce initiative to develop a more efficient integrated delivery system ordering platform.

Performance Services
For the fiscal fourth quarter ended June 30, 2019, Performance Services segment net revenue was $89.2 million, compared with $94.8 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease was due to lower consulting revenue related to cost management and quality and safety engagements. This was partially offset by growth in the clinical surveillance, cost management and clinical decision support areas of the technology business.

Performance Services segment non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $28.2 million for the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter, compared with $37.6 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease was primarily the result of lower revenue and ongoing investments in the company's clinical decision support technology and in the development of the company's high-value care network, a strategy intended to link employers and payers with providers to enable better clinical outcomes at reduced cost.

Results of Continuing Operations for the Twelve Months Ended June 30, 2019

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, GAAP net revenue was $1.22 billion, compared with $1.18 billion in the prior year. GAAP net income totaled $334.7 million, compared with $258.0 million a year ago. Fiscal 2019 and 2018 full-year GAAP net income attributable to stockholders required non-cash adjustments of $(118.1) million and $157.6 million, respectively, to reflect changes in redemption value of the limited partners Class B common unit ownership at the end of each period. These non-cash adjustments result primarily from changes in the number of Class B common units outstanding and the company's stock price between periods and do not reflect results of the company's business operations. After these non-cash adjustments, the company reported net income attributable to stockholders of $15.7 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared with net income of $191.0 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, in the prior year. See "Calculation of GAAP Earnings per Share" in the income statement section of this press release.

For fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was $561.0 million, compared with $539.5 million in the prior year. Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed net income was $349.1 million, compared with $315.4 million a year ago, while non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share was $2.66, compared with $2.30.

Supply Chain Services segment net revenue was $855.2 million for fiscal 2019, compared with $824.0 million a year ago. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $548.0 million, compared with $531.9 million for the prior year.

Performance Services segment net revenue was $362.5 million for fiscal 2019, compared with $360.7 million a year ago. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $129.1 million, compared with $123.4 million.

Cash Flows and Liquidity

Net cash provided by operating activities was $511.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, compared with $505.3 million for the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by increases in net administrative fees and services revenue and an increase in cash collections on accounts receivable, partially offset by increased cash paid for taxes primarily related to a refund received in the prior year, and increased selling, general and administrative expenses. At June 30, 2019, the company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $141.1 million, compared with $152.4 million at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2019, the company had an outstanding balance of $25.0 million on its five-year, $1.0 billion revolving credit facility. On July 15, 2019, the company repaid the outstanding balance.

Non-GAAP free cash flow for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 was $342.8 million, compared with $333.6 million for the same period a year ago and was primarily impacted by a decrease in distributions to limited partners as well as by the same factors that contributed to an increase in net cash provided by operating activities partially offset by the $18.0 million Tax Receivable Agreement (TRA) payment made to member owners in the current year. Timing of the TRA payment shifted to July in the current year from June in previous years due to a change in the company's federal tax filing deadline. Free cash flow equaled 61% of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2019. The company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less quarterly tax distributions and annual TRA payments to limited partners and purchases of property and equipment (see free cash flow reconciliation to net cash provided by operating activities in the tables section of this press release).

As previously announced, the company completed its $250.0 million Class A stock repurchase program in March 2019. Under the program, the company repurchased approximately 6.7 million shares of Class A common stock, which had the impact of adding approximately $0.06 to diluted per-share results for fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

Fiscal 2020 Outlook and Guidance

The statements in this "Fiscal 2020 Outlook and Guidance" discussion are "forward-looking statements." For additional information regarding the use and limitations of such statements, see "Forward-Looking Statements" below and the "Risk Factors" section of the company's most recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as updated from time to time in the company's other filings with the SEC.

Premier believes it remains well positioned financially and operationally for fiscal 2020, and is introducing financial guidance for the fiscal year based on the following key assumptions:

Based on the company's current outlook, and the realization of the assumptions discussed above in all material respects, Premier has established the following financial guidance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020:

Fiscal 2020 Financial Guidance *
 
Premier, Inc. introduces full-year fiscal 2020 financial guidance, as follows:
 
(in millions, except per share data)

FY 2020

% YoY Increase
Net Revenue:
Supply Chain Services segment $872.0 - $907.0 2% - 6%
Performance Services segment $359.0 - $373.0 (1)% - 3%
Total Net Revenue $1,231.0 - $1,280.0 1% - 5%
 
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA $566.0 - $589.0 1% - 5%
 
Non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed EPS $2.76 - $2.89 4% - 9%

* The company does not meaningfully reconcile guidance for non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share to net income attributable to stockholders or earnings per share attributable to stockholders because the company cannot provide guidance for more significant reconciling items between net income attributable to stockholders and adjusted EBITDA and between earnings per share attributable to stockholders and non-GAAP adjusted fully distributed earnings per share without unreasonable effort. This is due to two primary reasons:

?Reasonable guidance cannot be provided for reconciling the adjustment of redeemable limited partners' capital to redemption amount ? historically the largest adjustment in the reconciliation from non-GAAP to GAAP amounts ? due to the fact that the increase or decrease in this item is based on the change in the number of shares of Class B stock outstanding and change in stock price between quarters, which the company cannot predict, control or reasonably estimate.

? Reasonable guidance cannot be provided for earnings per share attributable to stockholders because the ongoing quarterly member-owner exchange of Class B common stock and corresponding Class B units into shares of Class A common stock impacts the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding each quarter, which the company cannot predict, control or reasonably estimate. Member owners have the right, but not the obligation, to exchange shares on a quarterly basis, and the company has the discretion to settle any exchanged shares for Class A common stock, cash, or a combination thereof, neither of which can be predicted, controlled or reasonably estimated at this time.

Impact of Discontinued Operations on Fiscal 2019 Financial Results

On May 6, 2019, the company announced that it committed to a plan to sell certain assets of its specialty pharmacy business and to discontinue operations of, and wind down and exit from the specialty pharmacy business. On June 7, 2019, the company closed the transaction. The table below shows the impact of discontinued operations by quarter and full fiscal year:

Use and Definition of Non-GAAP Measures

Premier uses EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, segment adjusted EBITDA, adjusted fully distributed net income, adjusted fully distributed earnings per share, and free cash flow to facilitate a comparison of the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to provide measures that, when viewed in combination with its results prepared in accordance with GAAP, allow for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company's business than GAAP measures alone. The company believes adjusted EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA assist its board of directors, management and investors in comparing the company's operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period by removing the impact of the company's asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of management (taxes), as well as other non-cash (impairment of intangible assets and purchase accounting adjustments) and non-recurring items, from operating results.

In addition, adjusted fully distributed net income and adjusted fully distributed earnings per share eliminate the variability of non-controlling interest as a result of member owner exchanges of Class B common units and corresponding Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock and other potentially dilutive equity transactions which are outside of management's control. Adjusted fully distributed net income is defined as net income attributable to Premier (i) excluding income tax expense, (ii) excluding the impact of adjustment of redeemable limited partners' capital to redemption amount, (iii) excluding the effect of non-recurring and non-cash items, (iv) assuming the exchange of all the Class B common units for shares of Class A common stock, which results in the elimination of non-controlling interest in Premier LP, and (v) reflecting an adjustment for income tax expense on non-GAAP fully distributed net income before income taxes at the company's estimated effective income tax rate. We define adjusted fully distributed earnings per share as adjusted fully distributed net income divided by diluted weighted average shares. These measures assist our board of directors, management and investors in comparing our net income and earnings per share on a consistent basis from period to period because these measures remove non-cash and non-recurring items, and eliminate the variability of non-controlling interest that results from member owner exchanges of Class B common units into shares of Class A common stock.

EBITDA is defined as net income before loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, interest and investment income, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization of purchased intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before merger and acquisition related expenses and non-recurring, non-cash or non-operating items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates. For all Non-GAAP financial measures, we consider non-recurring items to be income or expenses and other items that have not been earned or incurred within the prior two years and are not expected to recur within the next two years. Such items include certain strategic and financial restructuring expenses. Non-operating items include gains or losses on the disposal of assets and interest and investment income or expense.

Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as the segment's net revenue less cost of revenue and operating expenses directly attributable to the segment, excluding depreciation and amortization, amortization of purchased intangible assets, merger and acquisition related expenses and non-recurring or non-cash items, and including equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates. Operating expenses directly attributable to the segment include expenses associated with sales and marketing, general and administrative, and product development activities specific to the operation of each segment. General and administrative corporate expenses that are not specific to a particular segment are not included in the calculation of segment adjusted EBITDA. Segment Adjusted EBITDA also excludes any income and expense that has been classified as discontinued operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure used by the company and by external users of the company's financial statements.

Management considers adjusted EBITDA an indicator of the operational strength and performance of the company's business. Adjusted EBITDA allows management to assess performance without regard to financing methods and capital structure and without the impact of other matters that management does not consider indicative of the operating performance of the business. Segment adjusted EBITDA is the primary earnings measure used by management to evaluate the performance of the company's business segments.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less distributions and tax receivable agreement payments to limited partners and purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow does not represent discretionary cash available for spending as it excludes certain contractual obligations such as debt repayments. Management believes free cash flow is an important measure because it represents the cash that the company generates after payment of tax distributions to limited partners and capital investment to maintain existing products and services and ongoing business operations, as well as development of new and upgraded products and services to support future growth. Free cash flow is important because it allows the company to enhance stockholder value through acquisitions, partnerships, joint ventures, investments in related or complimentary businesses and/or debt reduction.

To properly and prudently evaluate our business, readers are urged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the other financial tables, included at the end of this release. Readers should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company's business. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures used in this release are susceptible to varying calculations and may differ from, and may therefore not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Further information on Premier's use of non-GAAP financial measures is available in the "Our Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of Premier's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018.

(1) The timing of the annual tax receivable agreement payments has shifted to July from June due to the change in the company's federal tax filing deadline. As a result, Premier did not make a tax receivable agreement payment in fiscal 2018, but made the payment in July of fiscal 2019 and will make future annual payments in July.
