Electromed, Inc. (“Electromed” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: ELMD), a leader in innovative airway clearance technologies, today announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 (“Q3 FY 2021”).

Q3 FY 2021 Highlights

  • Net revenue increased 0.5% to $8.8 million, compared to $8.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 (“Q3 FY 2020”), driven by a 4.2% increase in home care revenue.
  • Gross profit percentage increased to 76.3% of net revenue, compared to 75.4% in Q3 FY 2020, primarily due to a higher mix of home care revenue and a favorable mix of Medicare within home care.
  • Net income equaled $224,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to $653,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, in Q3 FY 2020, and reflects increased strategic investments in both R&D and SG&A.
  • Cash as of March 31, 2021 was $12.5 million, benefiting from $834,000 in operating cash flow in Q3 FY 2021.

Kathleen Skarvan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Electromed, commented, “Although this winter’s resurgence of new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations dampened our home care revenue in January and February, we noted a sharp rebound in March, during which we achieved record monthly referrals and revenue. In March, we benefited from increased patient visits to clinics and greater access for our sales representatives as restrictions were further lifted and vaccines started to become more widely administered throughout the country. In our institutional segment, which had the greatest overall impact from the pandemic, we registered 43.4% sequential revenue growth, another positive indication that hospitals are increasing their non-COVID-19 patient census and our sales representatives are gaining greater hospital access.”

Ms. Skarvan concluded, “While we continue to operate within the constraints of a pandemic, the ongoing nationwide deployment of vaccinations, the extension of the provisional waiver from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and our strong operating performance in March gives us optimism that positive operating performance will continue in the fourth quarter. Even during these uncertain times, our solid cash flow generation capacity and strong balance sheet enable us to invest in Electromed’s future. We continue to make strategic investments in research and development, sales, marketing, and infrastructure to position Electromed for profitable long-term growth and to support our goal of enhancing patients’ quality of life one breath at a time with our differentiated SmartVest® Airway Clearance System.”

Q3 FY 2021 Review

Net revenue in Q3 FY 2021 increased 0.5% to $8.8 million, from $8.7 million in Q3 FY 2020. Home care revenue increased 4.2% to $8.2 million in Q3 FY 2021 from $7.8 million in Q3 FY 2020, primarily due to an increase in referrals and approvals. Field sales employees totaled 48, of which 39 were direct sales, at the end of Q3 FY 2021, compared to 44 at the end of Q3 FY 2020, of which 37 were direct sales. We commenced recruiting for four additional direct field sales employees in April. Institutional revenue decreased 27.3% to $443,000 from $609,000 in Q3 FY 2020, primarily due to the continued impact of COVID-19 on hospital purchasing activity. Home care distributor revenue decreased 36.0% to $105,000 from $164,000 in Q3 FY 2020. International revenue decreased 44.5% to $76,000 from $137,000 in Q3 FY 2020.

Gross profit in Q3 FY 2021 totaled $6.7 million, or 76.3% of net revenue, compared to $6.6 million, or 75.4% of net revenue, in Q3 FY 2020. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily due to a higher mix of home care revenue and a favorable mix of Medicare within home care.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in Q3 FY 2021 increased 14.4% to $6.1 million from $5.3 million in Q3 FY 2020. The increase in SG&A spending was primarily due to increased payroll and compensation-related expenses associated with higher average number of sales and marketing personnel, greater temporary resources to assist with systems infrastructure investments and increased incentive payments on higher home care revenue. The Company also incurred higher discretionary marketing expenses related to a direct-to-consumer marketing campaign and a comprehensive market research project, as well as higher professional fees. These increased expenses were partially offset by lower travel, meals and entertainment expenses. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses were 68.9%, compared to 60.5% in Q3 FY 2020.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses in Q3 FY 2021 totaled $407,000, compared to $392,000 in Q3 FY 2020, and include expenses for the development of a next generation platform. As a percentage of revenue, R&D expenses were 4.6% compared to 4.5% in Q3 FY 2020.

Net income before income taxes in Q3 FY 2021 totaled $253,000 in Q3 FY 2021, compared to $947,000 in Q3 FY 2020, and reflects increased strategic investments in both R&D and SG&A.

Net income was $224,000, or $0.03 per diluted share in Q3 FY 2021, compared to $653,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, in Q3 FY 2020. In Q3 FY 2021, income tax expense totaled $29,000, compared to an income tax expense of $294,000 in the same period of the prior year.

Year-to-Date FY 2021 Summary

For the nine months ended March 31, 2021, net revenue grew 2.7% to $26.3 million, from $25.6 million in the same period of our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 (“FY 2020”). The revenue increase was primarily due to growth in the Company’s home care market, partially offset by lower institutional and international revenue. Gross profit percentage was 77.5%, compared to 76.6% in the prior fiscal year period. The gross margin percentage increase was primarily due to a higher mix of home care revenue and a favorable mix of Medicare within home care. Net income was $2.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to $2.9 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in the first nine months of FY 2020. The net income decrease was primarily due to increased strategic investments in R&D and SG&A.

The Company’s balance sheet at March 31, 2021 included cash of $12.5 million, accounts receivable of $16.2 million, no debt, working capital of $28.1 million, and shareholders’ equity of $32.9 million.
