FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  

 

MARPAI, INC. REPORTS THE Fourth QUARTER and YEAR END 2021 RESULTS

 

23% Increase in revenue in THE FOURTH 2021 versus THIRD QUARTER 2021

 

New York, March 30, 2022—Marpai, Inc. (“Marpai” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: MRAI), an AI-technology company transforming the $22B Third-Party Administrator (TPA) market supporting self-funded employer health plans, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The Company’s consolidated results of operations include the results of operations of Marpai and its wholly owned subsidiary Marpai Health, Inc. for all periods presented, and the results of Continental Benefits, LLC (“Continental Benefit”) since its acquisition on April 1, 2021.

 

Financial Highlights

 

  Net revenue of approximately $5.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to net revenue of approximately $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2021, representing a sequential increase of approximately $1.1 million, or 23%.
     
  Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $14.2 million.  The Company’s revenues for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020 were zero since prior to the acquisition of Continental Benefit, it did not have any revenues.

 

  The number of our customers’ employees covered under the Company’s administered health plans was 25,195, 25,136 and 20,400 on December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021 and June 30 ,2021, respectively.

 

  Operating expenses (including cost of revenues) were approximately $11.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to approximately $9.5 million for the third quarter of 2021, and approximately $0.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, reflecting the acquisition of Continental Benefit, which increased the overall level of activity of the Company.
     
  Operating expenses (including cost of revenues) for the full year 2021 were $30.1 million, compared to approximately $3.4 million for 2020, reflecting the acquisition of Continental Benefit.

 

  Net loss was approximately $5.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021,compared to net loss of approximately $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2021, and a net loss of approximately $0.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.

 

  Adjusted negative EBITDA of approximately $4.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to negative EBITDA of approximately $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2021 and negative EBITDA of approximately $0.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.  Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2021 was negative $12.7 million compared to adjusted negative EBITDA of $2.3 million for full year 2020. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

 

 

 

 

  On October 29, 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and issued 7,187,500 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (including the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option shares) at a price of $4.00 per share with gross proceeds of $28.75 million and net proceeds of approximately $24.5 million, after deducting underwriting commissions and offering expenses.

 

“2021 has been a transformational year for Marpai and the recent addition of our new president Lutz Finger, who joined us from Google Health, a division of Google Inc., is an important validation of our long term strategy and prospects,” stated Edmundo Gonzalez, Chief Executive Officer of Marpai. “During 2021, we acquired Continental Benefits, thus becoming a player in the third party administrator (TPA) industry, we built a strong management team and we completed a successful initial public offering. I believe that we now have a strong basis from which we can build the TPA of the future, and I am very excited about 2022 and beyond.”

 

First Quarter 2022 Financial Guidance

 

The Company expects the first quarter 2022 revenue to be in a range of $6 million to $6.2 million.

 

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect our expectations as of today's date.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Their Limitations

 

In addition to our results and measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP presented in this press release, we believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating and comparing our financial and operational performance over multiple periods, identifying trends affecting our business, formulating business plans and making strategic decisions.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our financial performance and is also used for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

 

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation to net loss, helps identify underlying trends in our business and helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, tax rates, or different forms of employee compensation. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to a key financial metric used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these potential limitations include:

 

  other companies, including companies in our industry which have similar business arrangements, may report Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures;

 

  although depreciation and amortization expenses are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditures for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

 

 

 

 

  Adjusted EBITDA also does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs or the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; and

 

  Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur.

 

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider our non-GAAP measures only as supplemental to other GAAP-based financial measures
