Rhea-AI Summary
The Joint Corp. (NASDAQ: JYNT) reported strong financial results for Q4 2023 and full year 2023, with revenue growing by 16% to $117.7 million. They also increased clinic count to 935 and initiated a refranchising program. Despite revenue growth, they reported a net loss of $9.8 million for 2023. The company aims to drive growth through marketing initiatives and refranchising efforts to strengthen their franchise network.
Positive
  • Revenue grew by 16% to $117.7 million in 2023 compared to 2022.
  • Increased clinic count to 935 by year-end 2023.
  • Initiated a refranchising program to increase bottom line and cash flow.
  • Recorded a net loss of $9.8 million for 2023 despite revenue growth.
  • Reported Adjusted EBITDA of $12.2 million in 2023.
  • Performed 13.6 million patient visits in 2023.
Negative
  • Net loss of $9.8 million reported for 2023.
  • Operating loss of $2.1 million in 2023 compared to operating income of $828,000 in 2022.
  • Decrease in system-wide comp sales from 9% in 2022 to 4% in 2023.
  • Sold 55 franchise licenses in 2023 compared to 75 in 2022.
  • Closed 13 franchised clinics in 2023.

The Joint Corp.'s announcement delineates a mixed financial performance. The 16% revenue growth year-over-year indicates a robust expansion strategy, likely driven by an increase in clinic count and patient visits. However, the reported net loss, including a significant non-cash valuation allowance, suggests a need for careful financial scrutiny. This allowance could be indicative of the company's reassessment of its deferred tax assets, which may not be realizable in the foreseeable future, often a sign of conservative accounting practices or a response to changing business prospects.

Investors should note the refranchising program initiation, as it may impact future earnings through changes in capital expenditure and operating costs. The shift from corporate-owned to franchised clinics typically reduces capital requirements and stabilizes cash flows, making it a strategic move to bolster financial health. However, it also transfers some control and potential profits to franchisees.

While the Adjusted EBITDA remained stable, it's essential to understand that this metric excludes non-cash and irregular expenses and may not fully represent the company's cash flow position. The increase in unrestricted cash is positive but must be weighed against the net loss to understand the company's liquidity and operational efficiency.

The Joint Corp.'s performance in the context of the broader healthcare services market suggests a continued demand for chiropractic services. The increase in patient visits and new patient treatments highlights the market's receptivity to The Joint's services. However, the slower growth in system-wide sales compared to the previous year and the reduction in the number of new franchised licenses sold may signal a maturing market or increased competition.

Marketing initiatives aimed at driving top-line growth through new patient count and patient engagement will be crucial in maintaining a competitive edge. The healthcare sector is increasingly consumer-centric and The Joint's focus on patient conversion and retention rates reflects industry trends towards enhancing patient experience and loyalty.

The refranchising strategy aligns with current market trends where businesses in the service sector are moving towards asset-light models to improve scalability and financial performance. However, the mid-single digits growth expectation in system-wide comp sales for 2024 may suggest cautious optimism, potentially reflecting market saturation or an increasingly competitive landscape.

From an economic perspective, The Joint Corp.'s financial results can be interpreted as a response to macroeconomic conditions. The tight labor market mentioned in the report is likely exerting upward pressure on wages, contributing to increased general and administrative expenses. This scenario is consistent with broader economic trends of labor shortages and wage inflation in several sectors.

The company's refranchising initiative and modified financial guidance metrics indicate strategic adaptations to an uncertain economic environment. By focusing on system-wide gross sales and sales comps, The Joint is emphasizing metrics that may provide a clearer picture of its operational health in a fluctuating economy.

The decision to refranchise could also be seen as a move to mitigate risks associated with economic downturns, as it transfers operational risks to franchisees and may create a more variable cost structure. In the long term, this could position the company to better withstand economic headwinds while capitalizing on growth during economic expansions.

_____________________________________

1 System-wide sales include revenues at all clinics, whether operated or managed by the company or by franchisees. While franchised sales are not recorded as revenues by the company, management believes the information is important in understanding the company’s financial performance, because these revenues are the basis on which the company calculates and records royalty fees and are indicative of the financial health of the franchisee base. 
2 Comp sales include the revenues from both company-owned or managed clinics and franchised clinics that in each case have been open at least 13 full months and exclude any clinics that have closed.

“During 2023, our team delivered growth in system-wide sales, revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, the number of patient visits, and the number of patients treated as well as improved new patient conversion and existing patient attrition rates in a market of ongoing uncertainty among our patient demographic,” said Peter D. Holt, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Joint Corp. “Yet, we aim to do better and are implementing marketing initiatives to drive top-line growth through increased new patient count and patient engagement. Simultaneously, we are refranchising the majority of our corporate clinics, which we expect to ultimately increase our bottom line and cash flow. These actions will create opportunities for us to reinvest in The Joint and strengthen the health of our franchise network. As we advance our vision to be the Champions of Chiropractic, we expect to generate value for all of our stakeholders.” 

Financial Results for Fourth Quarter Ended December 31: 2023 Compared to 2022
Revenue was $30.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $27.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase reflects a greater number of franchised and corporate clinics and continued organic growth. Cost of revenue was $2.9 million, compared to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting the associated higher regional developer royalties and commissions.

Selling and marketing expenses were $3.4 million, up 2%, reflecting cost management efforts and the timing of the national marketing fund. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased 18% for the fourth quarter of 2023, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the impact of corporate clinics that are being held for sale in connection with the refranchising efforts.

General and administrative expenses were $21.3 million, compared to $18.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting increases in costs to support clinic growth and in payroll to remain competitive in the tight labor market.

Loss on disposition or impairment was $1.5 million dollars, compared to $50,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase is related to our refranchising efforts, which includes those additional corporate clinics that were announced to be held for sale in November 2023. Operating loss, including the aforementioned impairment charge, was $147,000, compared to operating income of $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Income tax expense, including non-cash valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets of $10.8 million, was $10.9 million. This compares to income tax expense of $629,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022. Net loss including the non-cash valuation allowance was $11.0 million, or $0.75 per basic share. This compares to net income of $763,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA was $4.0 million for both the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022.

Financial Results for Year Ended December 31: 2023 Compared to 2022
Revenue was $117.7 million in 2023, compared to $101.3 million in 2022. Net loss including the non-cash valuation allowance was $9.8 million, or $0.66 per basic share. This compares to 2022 net income of $627,000, or $0.04 per diluted share.

Balance Sheet Liquidity
Unrestricted cash was $18.2 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $9.7 million at December 31, 2022. The increase during 2023 reflects $14.7 million cash flow from operations, including the receipt of the employee retention credits of $4.8 million, partially offset by $6.2 million invested in clinic acquisitions, development of greenfield clinics, and improvements of existing clinics and corporate assets.

2024 Guidance
Because the timing of the corporate clinic sales is uncertain and will impact revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, the company has modified the financial guidance metrics to be system-wide gross sales and system-wide sales comps. The company will continue to provide guidance on new franchise openings excluding the impact of refranchised clinics.

  • 2024 System-wide sales are expected to be between $530 and $545 million dollars, compared to $488.0 million dollars in 2023.
  • System-wide comp sales for all clinics open 13 months or more are expected to be in the mid-single digits in 2024.
  • 2024 new franchised clinic openings, excluding the impact of refranchised clinics, are expected to be between 60 and 75, compared to 104 in 2023.

The Joint Corp. management will host a conference call at 5:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 7, 2024 to discuss the fourth quarter and year-end 2023 financial results. Shareholders and interested participants may listen to a live broadcast of the conference call by dialing (833) 630-0823 or (412) 317-1831 and ask to be joined into the ‘The Joint’ call approximately 15 minutes prior to the start time.

Commonly Discussed Performance Metrics
This release includes a presentation of commonly discussed performance metrics. System-wide sales include revenues at all clinics, whether operated by the company or by franchisees. While franchised sales are not recorded as revenues by the company, management believes the information is important in understanding the company’s financial performance, because these sales are the basis on which the company calculates and records royalty fees and are indicative of the financial health of the franchisee base. System-wide comp sales include the revenues from both company-owned or managed clinics and franchised clinics that in each case have been open at least 13 full months and exclude any clinics that have closed.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This release also includes a presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because they are important measures used by management to assess financial performance, as management believes they provide a more transparent view of the company’s underlying operating performance and operating trends. Reconciliation of historical net income/(loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is presented in the table below. The company defines EBITDA as net income/(loss) before net interest, tax expense, depreciation, and amortization expenses. The company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before acquisition-related expenses (which includes contract termination costs associated with reacquired regional developer rights), net (gain)/loss on disposition or impairment, stock-based compensation expenses, costs related to restatement filings, restructuring costs and other income related to employee retention credits.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income or cash flows from operations, as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as measures of financial performance and the ability to meet debt service requirements, they are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the methods of calculation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should be reviewed in conjunction with the company’s financial statements filed with the SEC.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements about future events and expectations that constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of industry trends, our future financial and operating performance and our growth plans, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are not statements of historical fact. Words such as, "anticipates," "believes," "continues," "estimates," "expects," "goal," "objectives," "intends," "may," "opportunity," "plans," "potential," "near-term," "long-term," "projections," "assumptions," "projects," "guidance," "forecasts," "outlook," "target," "trends," "should," "could," "would," "will," and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Specific forward looking statements made in this press release include, among others, our aim to do better and our implementation of marketing initiatives to drive top-line growth through increased new patient count and patient engagement;  our expectation that refranchising of the majority of our corporate clinics will ultimately increase our bottom line and cash flow; our belief that such actions will create opportunities for us to reinvest in The Joint and strengthen the health of our franchise network; our expectation that as we advance our vision to be the Champions of Chiropractic, we will generate value for all of our stakeholders; our expectation of high variability timing of the corporate clinic sales and their impact to revenue and Adjusted EBITDA during the execution of the refranchising strategy; our plan to continue to provide guidance on new franchise openings excluding the impact of refranchised clinics; and our expectations for 2024 system-wide sales, system-wide comp sales, and new franchised clinic openings, excluding the impact of refranchised clinics. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations of future results we express or imply in any forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Factors that could contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, our inability to identify and recruit enough qualified chiropractors and other personnel to staff our clinics, due in part to the nationwide labor shortage and an increase in operating expenses due to measures we may need to take to address such shortage; inflation, which has increased our costs and which could otherwise negatively impact our business; our failure to profitably operate company-owned or managed clinics; our failure to refranchise as planned; short-selling strategies and negative opinions posted on the internet, which could drive down the market price of our common stock and result in class action lawsuits; our failure to remediate future material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which could negatively impact our ability to accurately report our financial results, prevent fraud, or maintain investor confidence; and other factors described in our filings with the SEC, including in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on September 26, 2023 and subsequently-filed current and quarterly reports. We qualify any forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary factors. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements for any reason or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
