Insights

The third-quarter financial results for Simulations Plus show a solid revenue increase of 14% compared to the same quarter last year, totaling $18.5 million. Notably, there was a 12% increase in software revenue, amounting to $11.9 million and an 18% rise in services revenue, reaching $6.6 million. These figures demonstrate the company's strong performance, particularly in its software segment, which constitutes 64% of total revenue. However, despite these gains, the net income fell to $3.1 million from $4.0 million the previous year, resulting in a decrease in diluted EPS to $0.15 from $0.20.

For the first nine months of 2024, the total revenue increased 17% to $51.3 million, driven by growth in both software and services segments. The gross margin remained steady at 71%. This indicates that the company is maintaining its profitability even as it scales its operations. However, the slight decline in EPS and net income suggests potential challenges in cost management or increased expenses, possibly due to integration efforts following acquisitions.

Looking ahead, the company has maintained its full-year revenue guidance of $69 million to $72 million and updated its EPS guidance. The decision to discontinue the quarterly dividend to reallocate funds for growth initiatives is a strategic move aimed at long-term value creation but might not sit well with income-focused investors.

Overall, while the revenue growth is promising, the decline in net income and EPS might cause some concern. Retail investors should monitor how the company's strategic investments and acquisitions, such as Pro-ficiency, play out in the upcoming quarters.

The revenue growth in both software and services segments indicates a strong demand for Simulations Plus' offerings, especially in the biopharma industry. The growth in software revenue, driven by products like ADMET Predictor® and MonolixSuite™, highlights the company's successful innovation pipeline. The recent launch of GastroPlus X is expected to further strengthen their market position.

The 18% increase in services revenue suggests that the company's Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) and Clinical Pharmacology & Pharmacometrics (CPP) business units are gaining traction. This is a positive indicator of the company's ability to deliver value-added services that complement their software solutions.

However, the decision to discontinue the quarterly dividend may signal a shift in the company's capital allocation strategy towards more aggressive growth initiatives. While this could lead to long-term shareholder value, it might not be well-received by investors seeking regular income from dividends.

Investors should also consider the broader market context. The biotech funding environment, which the company mentions is recovering, will be important in sustaining demand for Simulations Plus' products and services. The mixed spending patterns among large pharmaceutical companies could introduce some volatility in future revenue streams.

In conclusion, the revenue growth and product innovation are definitely positive, but the financial metrics related to net income and EPS, along with the dividend discontinuation, warrant a cautious approach.

The financial results underscore the growing importance of biosimulation and simulation-enabled solutions in the biopharma industry. Simulations Plus has demonstrated a strong capability to cater to this demand, as evidenced by the increased revenue from their software and services segments. The company's flagship products like ADMET Predictor® and GastroPlus® are evidently well-regarded in the market.

The launch of GastroPlus X is particularly noteworthy. Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetics (PBPK) modeling is a critical tool in drug development, allowing for better prediction of drug behavior in the human body. This can significantly reduce the time and cost associated with clinical trials, a key pain point for biopharma companies. By enhancing their PBPK modeling capabilities, Simulations Plus is likely to attract more clients looking to streamline their drug development processes.

Additionally, the successful integration of Pro-ficiency and the positive response from clients indicate that the company's strategic acquisitions are yielding the desired results. The focus on combining AI technologies with simulations is forward-thinking and aligns well with industry trends toward more predictive and personalized medicine.

While the financial metrics show a slight decline in net income and EPS, the company's product innovation and strategic acquisitions suggest a promising long-term growth trajectory. Investors should watch for how quickly the new offerings like GastroPlus X gain market traction and contribute to revenue growth.

Management Commentary

“Our third quarter results reflected continued solid performance in both our software and services segments,” said Shawn O’Connor, Chief Executive Officer of Simulations Plus. “Total revenue increased 14%, led by higher software sales in our Cheminformatics and Clinical Pharmacology & Pharmacometrics (CPP) business units, with strong growth in our ADMET Predictor® and MonolixSuite™ platforms, respectively. Our Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetics (PBPK) business unit also performed well, reflecting higher revenues from GastroPlus®. During the quarter, we were excited to launch GastroPlus X, the next generation of physiologically based pharmacokinetics/biopharmaceutics (PBPK/PBBM) modeling and simulation software and believe it will become a meaningful addition to our suite of leading-edge solutions. The 18% increase in services revenue was driven by strong growth in our Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) and CPP business units.

“Biotech funding is starting to show signs of recovery, most notably for companies that have drug candidates in the clinic. We continue to be cautiously optimistic about the funding environment for our biotech clients. We see a range of spending patterns among large pharmaceutical companies. Some are increasing expenditures, while others remain conservative, with most falling in between depending on various internal and external market factors. Overall, the market is in a better position today compared to a year ago.

“Our acquisition of Pro-ficiency on June 11th brings together our collective expertise in simulations, AI technologies and focus on science, creating a one-of-a-kind platform that spans across the drug development continuum. The Pro-ficiency integration and collaboration is progressing in-line with our internal plan and schedule with positive responses from our clients.

“Our performance in the first nine months of the year remains aligned with our original fiscal 2024 revenue guidance. The newly formed Clinical Simulations and Medical Communications (CSMC) business unit is expected to contribute approximately $3 million to our fiscal 2024 revenue. We are entering our final fiscal quarter of 2024 with a healthy pipeline and remain confident that Simulations Plus is well positioned to achieve its goals for the fiscal year. Going forward, we remain committed to a disciplined growth strategy that will deliver long-term returns for our shareholders.”

Non-GAAP Definitions

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, (gain) loss on currency exchange, any acquisition- or financial-transaction-related expenses, and any asset impairment charges. Currency exchange excluded represents the exchange rate fluctuations on the foreign currency denominated transactions. The impact of transactions in foreign currency represents the effect of converting revenue and expenses occurring in a currency other than the functional currency. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented facilitate an understanding of operating performance and provide a meaningful comparison of its results between periods. The Company’s management uses non-GAAP financial measures to, among other things, evaluate its ongoing operations in relation to historical results, for internal planning and forecasting purposes and in the calculation of performance-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA represents a measure that we believe is customarily used by investors and analysts to evaluate the financial performance of companies in addition to the GAAP measures that we present. Our management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our core operating results. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA measure may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in its industry, as other companies in its industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to nonrecurring, unusual items.

Adjusted Diluted EPS

Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated based on net income excluding the impact of any acquisition- or financial-transaction-related expenses, any asset impairment charges, and tax provisions / benefits related to the previous items. The Company excludes the above items because they are outside of the Company’s normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP measures helps investors to gain a better understanding of the Company’s core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts.
