Streamline Health(R) Solutions Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End Results
Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: STRM) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year, ended January 31, 2010.
Highlights for the quarter and fiscal year included:
-- Record fiscal year revenues of $18.2 million and record quarterly revenues of $6.3 million reflecting increases of 12% and 86% respectively;
-- The general availability and successful delivery in Q4 of our newest-generation software platform, called accessANYware 5.0;
-- System sales up 773% vs. Q4 2008 and 13% for the year;
-- 44% increase in quarterly application hosting revenues vs Q4 2008;
-- Services, maintenance and support revenues increased 10% vs. last year's fourth quarter; -- Fiscal year operating income improved by $2.7 million to a profit of $1.4 million from a loss of $1.3 million last year; -- Two new customer contracts were signed in the Company's fourth quarter and two have already been signed in the first quarter of 2010.
Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2010, were a record $6.3 million compared with $3.4 million in the comparable quarter of 2008. Net income for the quarter was $1.6 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to a net loss of $146,000, or $0.02 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2008. The increase of $2.4 million in system sales when compared with the prior fourth quarter was due to the recognition of $1.7 million in revenue relating to the general availability status and associated delivery of our newest-generation software platform, called accessANYware 5.0. System sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 were also improved by $700,000 due to the recently announced sale to Moses Cone Health System. Revenues from application hosting services also continued their growth in the fourth quarter and increased by $260,000, or 44%, over the comparable fourth quarter of 2008. Revenues from services, maintenance, and support also increased by nearly 10%, or $241,000 over the comparable prior fourth quarter.
Strong revenue growth in the fourth quarter contributed to record revenues for the full fiscal year ended January 31, 2010. Fiscal 2009 revenues increased 12% to $18.2 million compared with $16.3 million reported for fiscal year 2008.
Total operating expenses for fiscal year 2009 were $16.9 million compared with $17.6 million in fiscal 2008. This expense reduction was primarily the result of effective cost management measures initiated in the third quarter of fiscal 2008. Total operating expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 were $4.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The increase in these comparable fourth quarter expenses is reflective of the cumulative nature of selective staff increases and investments made throughout fiscal 2009. Fourth quarter 2009 expenses also increased due to additional amortization of capitalized software development costs, the impact of increased bonus and commissions, combined with a reduction in eligible capitalized software development costs.
The operating profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 was $1.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $132,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008. The operating income for full fiscal 2009 was $1.4 million compared with an operating loss of $1.3 million for full fiscal 2008. This represents a significant improvement of approximately $2.7 million over the comparable prior period.
Fiscal 2009 net income improved by $2.7 million to a profit of $1.3 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.15 per share, for fiscal 2008.
Total backlog at the end of the fourth quarter was $19.9 million compared with $26.2 million backlog of a year ago. The bulk of the backlog continues to come from SaaS-based hosting services contracts versus software licensing sales. Streamline Health is a leader in hosting solutions that allow hospital organizations to adopt document workflow and document management tools, applications and services to improve operational efficiencies in the most cost-efficient manner possible. Management believes that the hosting model will be the preferred delivery model as the market improves.
J. Brian Patsy, Chief Executive Officer of Streamline Health, commented, "The results of the fourth quarter and the fiscal year were very positively impacted by the $2.4 million of license sales to our Canadian customers and to the Moses Cone Health System that was secured during the fourth quarter. While our expectation is that the vast majority of our revenues will be recurring revenues generated through the application hosting model, license sales will have a profound top- and bottom-line impact as they are recorded in the coming years. We are very well positioned to adjust to the buying patterns of our customers and can provide leading-edge solutions in whichever manner is efficient and cost-effective for those customers. Clearly, we are pleased to have achieved record top-line results in the fourth quarter and in fiscal year 2009.
"In addition to the license sale contracts that we secured during the fourth quarter," continued Mr. Patsy, "we also closed a new application hosting model customer - St. Vincent's Medical Center in Bridgeport, Connecticut. St. Vincent's is affiliated with the Ascension Health Network; which is the nation's largest Catholic and non-profit health system in the United States. We believe this initial sale has the potential to lead to additional sales throughout the entire system in the years to come based on performance and efficacy.
"We are also off to a good start in the new year by closing two application hosting contracts since the beginning of our fiscal year on February 1. The first contract is with Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. for our Audit Program Management Solution which will support Children's National in audits required of all pediatric hospitals, including those by third-party payers and government agencies. The second application hosting contract was secured with East Orange General Hospital in New Jersey for our accessANYware health information management solution to provide access to document-centric patient information across the entire enterprise to enable hospital operating efficiencies and improved patient outcomes. We are excited with the possibilities in 2010 and beyond," concluded Mr. Patsy.
