Appendix


 
Viemed Healthcare, Inc. | Investor Presentation 2020 2021 2022 2023 1Q 2024 YTD Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA(1) Net Income 31.5$ 9.1$ 6.2$ 10.2$ 1.6$ Depreciation & Amortization 9.6 11.3 15.6 21.9 6.3 Interest Expense (income) 0.5 0.3 0.2 0.4 0.2 Transaction Costs - - - 0.5 0.1 Stock-based Compensation 4.9 5.2 5.2 5.9 1.4 Income Tax Expense (Benefit) (5.2) 3.4 2.8 4.2 0.5 Adjusted EBITDA 41.3$ 29.3$ 30.0$ 43.1$ 10.1$ (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Viemed's presentation of this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides helpful information with respect to Viemed’s operating performance as viewed by management, including a view of Viemed’s business that is not dependent on the impact of Viemed’s capitalization structure and items that are not part of Viemed’s day-to-day operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) to compare Viemed’s operating performance on a consistent basis, (ii) to calculate incentive compensation for Viemed’s employees, (iii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of Viemed’s internal annual operating budget, and (iv) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of Viemed’s operational strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating Viemed’s operating performance in the same manner as management. The table above is a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, on a historical basis for the periods indicated. Beginning with financial results reported for periods in fiscal year 2023, Adjusted EBITDA also excludes transaction costs and expenses related to acquisition and integration efforts associated with recently announced or completed acquisitions. This modification enables investors to compare period-over-period results on a more consistent basis without the effects of acquisitions. We have recast Adjusted EBITDA for prior periods when reported to conform to the modified presentation. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Slide 25
