NEW YORK, Aug. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (Nasdaq: DRIO), a pioneer in the global digital therapeutics market, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2021 and provided a corporate and commercial update.

"During the second quarter and subsequent period, we saw increasing demand for our integrated multi condition digital therapeutics solution, driven in part by the expansion of our metabolic offering into musculoskeletal and pain conditions through the acquisition of Upright Technologies in February 2021 and into behavioral health through the acquisition of wayForward in June 2021," stated Erez Raphael, Chief Executive Officer of Dario. "We believe Dario's offering is the most comprehensive, fully-integrated hyper personalized digital therapeutics suite in the industry, as demonstrated by customer acceptance, and now market acceptance, as well as the fact that approximately two-thirds of our expanded sales pipeline is made of opportunities that include our complete chronic condition management platform."

"At the same time, the execution of our long term strategic operating plan resulted in several new employer clients, further penetration into the rapidly growing provider's remote patient monitoring (RPM) market, and we believe that a health plan contract is imminent. Equally as important, Dario continues to on-board new patients efficiently and enrollment trends remain strong. We believe that this bodes well for new clients anticipated throughout the remainder of the third and fourth quarter this year."

"We had solid financial performance, with Q2 2021 total revenue growth of 46% sequentially from the first quarter of 2021 and 194% over the comparable period in 2020. We also drove significant pro-forma gross profit margin expansion, to 49.4% in the second quarter of 2021, a sequential increase from 44.7% in the first quarter of 2021. Gross margin should continue to improve with scale due to our SaaS business model and Business-­to-­Business-­to-­Consumer (B2B2C) transformation. Finally, our balance sheet remains very strong, with $63.9 million of cash as of June 30, 2021. We believe that we are well funded to execute on our multi-faceted growth plan," Mr. Raphael concluded.  

"Our integrated multi-condition digital therapeutics suite serves the ever-growing need of providers, employers, and health plans, a fact that is reflected in the continued growth of our pipeline, which now stands at more than $900 million and is buoyed by incremental growth in our employer pipeline. We are encouraged by the shift we have seen in our pipeline of healthcare providers from interest in point solutions for specific chronic conditions to demand for a hyper-personalized holistic, integrated service for chronic disease management. This trend leverages our sales effort not only by delivering the right multi-condition, single platform solution at the right time, but also by increasing the percentage of covered patients addressable by Dario's platform several fold," stated Rick Anderson, President and General Manager of North America. "We anticipate the first integration of musculoskeletal (MSK) into the Dario platform in the third quarter of 2021, and behavioral health in the fourth quarter of 2021, setting us up for what I anticipate will be a successful second half of the year and significant sales momentum heading into 2022."

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "plan," "project," "potential," "seek," "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "estimate" or "continue" are intended to identify forward-looking statements. For example, the Company is using forward-looking statements in this press release when it discusses its belief that it is well funded to execute on its multi-faceted growth plan, that it offers the most comprehensive, fully-integrated hyper personalized digital therapeutics suit in the industry, the expected timing and execution of its health plan contract, its expectation that the new employer client contracts will contribute to revenue and the timing of the integration of MSK and behavioral health on the Dario platform. Readers are cautioned that certain important factors may affect the Company's actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements that may be made in this news release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with 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.

Cost of revenues (non-GAAP). Our presentation of non-GAAP cost of revenues excludes stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquisition related expenses and depreciation of fixed assets. 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.

Operating expenses (non-GAAP). Our presentation of non-GAAP operating expenses excludes stock-based compensation expenses and acquisition costs. 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, acquisition costs, amortization of acquisition related expenses and depreciation of fixed assets. We believe these measures provide useful information to management and investors for analysis of our operating results.
