VIEMED HEALTHCARE ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Lafayette, Louisiana (November 6, 2024) Viemed Healthcare, Inc. (the “Company” or “Viemed”) (NASDAQ:VMD), a national leader in respiratory care and technology-enabled home medical equipment services, announced today that it has reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Operational highlights (all dollar amounts are USD; comparisons are to the period ended September 30, 2023 unless otherwise noted):

•Net revenues increased 17.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $58.0 million, setting another Company record, and increased 5.5% sequentially over the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. Excluding acquired revenue of $1.1 million, non-acquired net revenues increased by 15% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

•Net income increased 33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 to $3.9 million, or $0.10 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 increased 15.5% to $14.0 million. A reconciliation of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found in the tables accompanying this press release.

•The Company increased its ventilator patient count by 11.0% to 11,374 on September 30, 2024 and increased ventilator patient count by 4.3% sequentially from June 30, 2024.

•The Company increased its sleep therapy patient count by 11.0% sequentially to 19,478 on September 30, 2024; the Company also increased its sleep resupply orders by 9.7% sequentially to 22,143 on September 30, 2024.

•As of September 30, 2024, the Company maintains a strong cash balance of $11.3 million and an overall working capital balance of $11.3 million. Long term debt as of September 30, 2024 amounted to $3.7 million and the Company has $55.3 million available under existing credit facilities.

•The Company exceeded the high end of its previously projected net revenue range for the third quarter of 2024, and now expects to generate net revenues of approximately $59.7 million to $60.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Casey Hoyt, Viemed’s CEO, noted, “Viemed continues to earn a trusted place in the home with our high-touch, technology-enabled clinical approach to delivering complex respiratory care services. As a vital link between patients, providers and payers, we are demonstrating Viemed’s value in increasing patient satisfaction, improving compliance, and reducing rehospitalizations. This valuable position is helping us increase the patient population that we can serve for non-invasive ventilation, sleep, staffing and other complementary services.

“The combination of Viemed’s well-earned place in the home, the sales force restructuring initiatives we completed earlier this year, and the operational efficiencies facilitating greater patient compliance are fueling our strong organic revenue growth. The improved outlook for the balance of 2024 is predicated on continued benefits from these sales initiatives and operational efficiencies driving organic growth and greater penetration of our underserved markets through expanded service and home-based product offerings,” added Mr. Hoyt.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release refers to “Adjusted EBITDA”, which is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides helpful information with respect to the Company’s operating performance as viewed by management, including a view of the Company’s business that is not dependent on the impact of the Company’s capitalization structure and items that are not part of the Company’s day-to-day operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) to compare the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis, (ii) to calculate incentive compensation for the Company’s employees, (iii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company’s internal annual operating budget, and (iv) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the Company’s operational strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating performance in the same manner as management. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of the Company’s financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue or net income, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters the Company considers not to be indicative of ongoing operations; and other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, certain items (mostly non-cash) are excluded from net income including depreciation and amortization of capitalized assets, net interest expense (income), stock based compensation, transaction costs, impairment of assets, and taxes.

The following table is a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, on a historical basis for the periods indicated:
