MOBILE, Ala.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$CPSI–CPSI (NASDAQ: CPSI), a community healthcare solutions company, today announced results for the third quarter of 2020 and nine months ended September 30, 2020.
As previously announced on September 9, 2020, and in tandem with the authorization of the Company’s $30 million stock repurchase program, the CPSI Board of Directors opted to indefinitely suspend all quarterly dividends.
Total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, were $68.3 million, compared with total revenues of $68.7 million for the prior-year third quarter. GAAP net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, was $5.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared with $4.1 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Cash provided by operations for the third quarter of 2020 was $8.1 million, consistent with $8.1 million for the prior-year quarter. Net debt at September 30, 2020, was $77.9 million compared to $118 million one year ago.
Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, were $197.6 million, compared with total revenues of $204.0 million for the prior-year period. GAAP net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $11.1 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, compared with $9.2 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Cash provided by operations for the first nine months of 2020 was $33.0 million, compared with $25.5 million for the prior-year period.
Commenting on the Company’s financial performance for the third quarter of 2020, Matt Chambless, chief financial officer of CPSI, stated, “A strong schedule for net new Thrive implementations and the continued recovery in hospital patient volumes, which helped drive our TruBridge revenues, resulted in impressive sequential increases on both the top and bottom lines. Revenues in the third quarter increased 15% from the second quarter, while net income nearly doubled and Adjusted EBITDA increased 54% over the same period. This top line strength, combined with continued discipline on the cost side, allowed us to extend our recent success in generating cash flows, with trailing twelve-month operating cash flows in excess of $51 million, a 48% improvement compared to the same metric a year ago. Our performance across all of these metrics is a testament to the resiliency of CPSI and our customer base, who view us as a committed partner as they navigate the unique challenges they have confronted in 2020.”
Boyd Douglas, president and chief executive officer of CPSI, stated, “We are pleased that in this challenging environment, total CPSI bookings year-to-date are up 15% over last year. As we head into the last quarter of 2020 with improved visibility and confidence in our operations, we anticipate being able to provide long-term guidance metrics when we release full-year 2020 results. There will always be market factors that can create uncertainty for CPSI and our customers. However, after more than 40 years of serving community healthcare providers, we measure our success not only by how quickly we react to those uncertainties, but also by what we learn and how we can emerge even stronger.”
CPSI will hold a live webcast to discuss its third quarter 2020 results today, Thursday, November 5, 2020, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time. A 30-day online replay will be available approximately one hour following the conclusion of the live webcast.

These forward-looking statements can be identified generally by the use of forward-looking terminology and words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “potential,” “may,” “continue,” “should,” “will” and words of comparable meaning. Without limiting the generality of the preceding statement, all statements in this press release relating to the Company’s future financial and operational results are forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any such forward‑looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance. Certain risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward‑looking statements. Such factors may include: our ability to successfully execute repurchases of our common stock under the newly-approved stock repurchase program, as well as the potential for such repurchases to affect the price of our common stock and increase volatility; the global pandemic related to the novel coronavirus COVID‑19, including the size and breadth of this pandemic, which has decreased our hospital customers’ patient volumes and negatively impacted our variable revenues, and could negatively impact our gross margins and income, as well as our financial position and/or liquidity; federal, state and local government actions to address and contain the impact of COVID-19 and their impact on us and our hospital clients; operational disruptions and heightened cybersecurity risks due to a significant percentage of our workforce working remotely; overall business and economic conditions affecting the healthcare industry, including the effects of the federal healthcare reform legislation enacted in 2010, and implementing regulations, on the businesses of our hospital customers; government regulation of our products and services and the healthcare and health insurance industries, including changes in healthcare policy affecting Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates and qualifying technological standards; changes in customer purchasing priorities, capital expenditures and demand for information technology systems; saturation of our target market and hospital consolidations; general economic conditions, including changes in the financial and credit markets that may affect the availability and cost of credit to us or our customers; our substantial indebtedness, and our ability to incur additional indebtedness in the future; our potential inability to generate sufficient cash in order to meet our debt service obligations; restrictions on our current and future operations because of the terms of our senior secured credit facilities; market risks related to interest rate changes; competition with companies that have greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we have; failure to develop new technology and products in response to market demands; failure of our products to function properly resulting in claims for medical and other losses; breaches of security and viruses in our systems resulting in customer claims against us and harm to our reputation; failure to maintain customer satisfaction through new product releases free of undetected errors or problems; failure to convince customers to migrate to current or future releases of our products; interruptions in our power supply and/or telecommunications capabilities, including those caused by natural disaster; our ability to attract and retain qualified client service and support personnel; failure to properly manage growth in new markets we may enter; misappropriation of our intellectual property rights and potential intellectual property claims and litigation against us; changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; significant charges to earnings if our goodwill or intangible assets become impaired; fluctuations in quarterly financial performance due to, among other factors, timing of customer installations; and other risk factors described from time to time in our public releases and reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Relative to our dividend policy, the payment of cash dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be determined in light of then-current conditions, including our earnings, our leverage, our operations, our financial conditions, our capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. We also caution investors that the forward‑looking information described herein represents our outlook only as of this date, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or developments after the date of this press release.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “GAAP.” However, management believes that, in order to properly understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to financial performance measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and impact on continuing operations. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in our ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations, or reduce management’s ability to make useful forecasts. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find these non-GAAP financial measures helpful in analyzing our financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to our peers and competitors.
As such, to supplement the GAAP information provided, we present in this press release and during the live webcast discussing our financial results the following non‑GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income, and Non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”).
We calculate each of these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:
- Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income (loss) as reported and adjusts for (i) depreciation expense; (ii) amortization of software development costs; (iii) amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; (iv) stock-based compensation; (v) severance and other non‑recurring expenses; (vi) interest expense and other, net; and (vii) the provision for income taxes.
- Non-GAAP net income – Non-GAAP net income consists of GAAP net income (loss) as reported and adjusts for (i) amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; (ii) stock-based compensation; (iii) severance and other non-recurring expenses; (iv) non-cash charges to interest expense; (v) loss on extinguishment of debt; and (vi) the total tax effect of items (i) through (v). Adjustments to Non-GAAP net income also include the after-tax effect of the shortfall from stock-based compensation.
- Non-GAAP EPS – Non-GAAP EPS consists of Non-GAAP net income, as defined above, divided by weighted average shares outstanding (diluted) in the applicable period.
Certain of the items excluded or adjusted to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures are described below:
- Amortization of software development costs – Amortization of software development costs is a non‑cash expense resulting from the application of U.S. GAAP to our product development expenditures, which requires capitalization of expenditures meeting certain defined criteria which are then amortized over the estimated useful life of the related assets. We exclude amortization expense related to capitalized software development costs from non-GAAP financial measures because we believe the amount of such expenses in any period may not directly correlate with the underlying performance of our business operations.
- Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets – Acquisition-related amortization expense is a non-cash expense arising primarily from the acquisition of intangible assets in connection with acquisitions or investments. We exclude acquisition-related amortization expense from non-GAAP financial measures because we believe (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods as a result of new acquisitions and full amortization of previously acquired intangible assets.
