NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (Nasdaq: DRIO), a pioneer in the global digital therapeutics market, today reported financial results for the second quarter 2020 and provided a corporate and commercial update.

"The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated our ongoing transformation to a business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C) digital therapeutics leader," said Erez Raphael, Chief Executive Officer of Dario. "We advanced late-stage discussions with health plans and self-insured employers, who we believe recognize how our industry-leading user engagement and satisfaction metrics lead to improved health for their member and employee populations. Our pipeline continues to grow and mature, and although the normal sales cycle can be lengthy, we believe that we are poised to announce new and potentially transformational agreements in the next few weeks."

"At the same time, our Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) product offering, which was just recently introduced, is seeing significant traction as evidenced by recently announced agreements in the U.S. and U.K. with more potential agreements in the pipeline."

"We believe that the expert webinar that we hosted in June featuring Key Opinion Leader (KOL) Dr. David Simmons, a diabetologist with 45 years of experience, reinforced the importance of digital therapeutics as a complement to current standards of care across the entire spectrum of chronic medical conditions. His work and expertise highlighted how behavior change, the core of the Dario platform, is at the root of improved health for the type 2 diabetes (T2D) population. At the American Diabetes Association's 80^th Scientific Sessions, Dario added to its growing body of evidence with its presentation of the results of two studies demonstrating that digital therapeutics deliver tangible, sustainable health benefits to patients and cost savings to payers."

"We believe that recent industry mergers and acquisitions transactions are indicative of the value that is being created in digital therapeutics. As a platform that aids in chronic condition management while facilitating acute care interactions, we believe that Dario has the potential to be a leading platform in the future virtual healthcare world. With a flexible, software based recurring revenue model that can scale, we believe that Dario can deliver improved care and reduce systemwide costs for the most expensive patient populations.  We are proud to be a leading innovator in this important and emerging field."    

"With the successful $28.6 million financing that we completed last month, we believe we have the resources in place to achieve significant commercial milestones that we believe will drive accelerating growth and continued improvement of our margins," Zvi Ben-David, Dario's Chief Financial Officer added. "In addition, we will continue to improve our platform through enhanced personalization with artificial intelligence (AI), improved efficacy in combination with Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and expanded breadth of offering for other chronic health conditions."

Second Quarter 2020 Results Summary

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020:

Revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 were $1.79 million, a 7.2% sequential increase from first quarter ended March 31, 2020, and an 8.2% increase from the $1.65 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

Revenues generated during the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 were derived mainly from the sales of DarioHealth's products and from the offering of our membership plans to our customers in the U.S.

At the end of the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, we accumulated deferred income of $1.27 million that we expect to recognize during the next four fiscal quarters.

Gross profit in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $636,000, an increase of $310,000, or 95%, compared to gross profit of $326,000 in the second quarter ended June 30, 2019. This increase is mainly a result of an increase in revenues generated from our membership offering and a decrease in product costs in the second quarter.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 were $4.8 million, a decrease of $0.9 million, or 16.3%, compared with $5.7 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the operating expenses was mainly due the decrease in equity-based compensation to directors, employees and service providers.

Operating loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $4.1 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 23%, compared to a $5.3 million operating loss in the second quarter ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was mainly due to the increase in our gross profit and decrease in our operating expenses.

Net loss attributable to holders of common stock was $4.8 million, or $0.68 per share, in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to the $5.4 million net loss, or $2.50 per share, in the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $13.2 million at June 30, 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."

Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020:

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.45 million, an 11.3% decrease from $3.89 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We recorded an additional $47,000 as deferred revenues from revenues generated from our membership offering to our customers in the U.S. This decrease is mainly a result of a decrease in our direct to consumer revenues in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019.

Gross profit of $1.4 million was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of 60% or $531,000 compared to gross profit of $884,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase is mainly a result of an increase in revenues generated from our membership offering and a corresponding decrease in product sales.

Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $3.5 million to $14.2 million, compared to an $10.7 million operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase is a result from an increase in our equity based compensation, consulting, investor relations and insurance expenses partially offset by an increase in our gross profit.

Net loss was $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to a net loss of $10.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 was mainly due to an increase in operating expenses.

Non-GAAP billings for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $3.5 million, a 23% decrease from $4.55 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with peer companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures provided in the financial statement tables below.

Billings (non-GAAP). We define billings as revenue recognized in accordance with GAAP plus the change in deferred revenue from the beginning to the end of the period and adjustment to the deferred revenue balance due to adoption of the new revenue recognition standard less any deferred revenue balances acquired from business combination(s) during the period. We consider billings to be a useful metric for management and investors because billings drive future revenue, which is an important indicator of the health and viability of our business. There are a number of limitations related to the use of billings instead of GAAP revenue. First, billings include amounts that have not yet been recognized as revenue and are impacted by the term of security and support agreements. Second, we may calculate billings in a manner that is different from peer companies that report similar financial measures. Management accounts for these limitations by providing specific information regarding GAAP revenue and evaluating billings together with GAAP revenue.

Operating expenses (non-GAAP). Our presentation of non-GAAP operating expenses excludes stock-based compensation expenses. Due to varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company's non-cash operating expenses, we believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude non-cash expense provides us with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own core business operating results over different periods of time.

Net loss (non-GAAP). Our presentation of adjusted net loss excludes the effect of certain items that are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net loss represents net loss determined under GAAP without regard to stock-based compensation expenses, deferred inventory and depreciation of fixed assets. We believe these measures provide useful information to management and investors for analysis of our operating results.
