ALHAMBRA, Calif., May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. ("ApolloMed," and together with its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, the "Company") (NASDAQ: AMEH), a leading physician-centric, technology-powered healthcare company focused on enabling providers in the successful delivery of value-based care, today announced its consolidated financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
Financial Highlights for First Quarter Ended March 31, 2023:
1. Care Enablement (integrated, end-to-end clinical and administrative platform comprised of technology, analytics, and management services, which enable payers and providers in the delivery of high-quality, value-based care);
2. Care Partners (partnering with high-performing providers in reducing total cost of care and participating in risk-bearing and performance-based arrangements via our consolidated risk-bearing entities, including independent physician associations ("IPAs"), health plan, and accountable care organization ("ACO")); and
3. Care Delivery (clinical operations, including primary care, multi-specialty, and ancillary services).
Recent Operating Highlights:
Management Commentary
Brandon Sim, Co-Chief Executive Officer of ApolloMed, stated, "We began 2023 on a strong note, achieving 28% growth on the top line primarily due to organic growth in our Care Partners segment, and maintaining steady profitability even as we continue to invest in people and infrastructure in our Care Enablement segment and continue to expand our high-quality clinical footprint in our Care Delivery segment. We continue to execute on our core operational goals, especially in growing our membership in core and new geographic regions and in taking additional financial responsibility for care delivery in our risk-bearing entities. On the latter, we recently received regulatory approval for the change in control of a full-service Restricted Knox-Keene licensed health plan, which will allow us to take global risk for the professional and institutional costs of members in the plan. This is a significant opportunity for us to deploy our care coordination and management capabilities more effectively and enhances our demonstrated ability to decrease total cost of care while improving on quality and patient outcomes, which we expect will drive both revenue and EBITDA growth over the next several years."
Mr. Sim continued, "Given our strong start to the year and ongoing execution across our business, we are pleased to be reiterating our previously provided guidance for full-year 2023. I believe that our innovative, technology-forward healthcare delivery platform, consisting of the rapidly-growing risk-bearing partnerships we have developed in conjunction with our growing clinical delivery footprint, all powered by our end-to-end care enablement suite, positions us well in our mission to accelerate the transformation of our healthcare system into one that is seamlessly coordinated, high quality, and accessible by all."

Care Enablement reported total revenues of $30.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 4.0%, compared to $29.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Segment operating income was $5.7 million, compared to $11.3 million in the prior-year period. This decrease was primarily a result of a $2.1 million increase in cost of services as well as $4.7 million increase in G&A expense related to increased headcount to support the Company's operational growth.
Care Partners reported total revenue of $314.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 30.4%, compared to $241.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which was primarily driven by organic membership growth in ApolloMed's consolidated risk-bearing entities and a more favorable payer mix. Segment operating income was $22.3 million, an increase of 28.2% from $17.4 million in the prior-year period.
Care Delivery reported total revenues of $25.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, an increase of 24.9%, compared to $20.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, which was primarily driven by increased volume in patient visits at our primary, multi-specialty, and ancillary care delivery entities. Segment operating loss was $1.0 million, compared to operating income of $1.1 million in the prior-year period. The loss was primarily a result of the Company's ongoing investment in expanding its care delivery footprint in Nevada and Texas.

Note About Consolidated Entities
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent third party equity ownership interests in the Company's consolidated entities (including certain VIEs). The amount of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the Company's consolidated statements of income.
Note About Stockholders' Equity, Certain Treasury Stock and Earnings Per Share
As of the date of this press release, 140,954 holdback shares have not been issued to certain former shareholders of the Company's subsidiary, Network Medical Management, Inc. ("NMM"), who were NMM shareholders at the time of closing of the merger, as they have yet to submit properly completed letters of transmittal to ApolloMed in order to receive their pro rata portion of ApolloMed's common stock and warrants as contemplated under that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 21, 2016, among ApolloMed, NMM, Apollo Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Subsidiary") and Kenneth Sim, M.D., as amended, pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary merged with and into NMM, with NMM as the surviving corporation. Pending such receipt, such former NMM shareholders have the right to receive, without interest, their pro rata share of dividends or distributions with a record date after the effectiveness of the merger. The Company's consolidated financial statements have treated such shares of common stock as outstanding, given the receipt of the letter of transmittal is considered perfunctory and ApolloMed is legally obligated to issue these shares in connection with the merger.
Shares of ApolloMed's common stock owned by Allied Physicians of California, a Professional Medical Corporation d.b.a. Allied Pacific of California ("APC"), a VIE of the Company, are legally issued and outstanding but excluded from shares of common stock outstanding in the Company's consolidated financial statements, as such shares are treated as treasury shares for accounting purposes. Such shares, therefore, are not included in the number of shares of common stock outstanding used to calculate the Company's earnings per share.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, of which the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") is net income. These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to GAAP, and may be different from other non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure of our operations, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a supplemental means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, excluding income or loss from equity method investments, non-recurring transactions, stock-based compensation, and APC excluded assets costs. Beginning in the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company has revised the calculation for Adjusted EBITDA to exclude provider bonus payments and losses from recently acquired IPAs, which it believes to be more reflective of its business.
The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with relevant and useful information, as it allows investors to evaluate the operating performance of the business activities without having to account for differences recognized because of non-core or non-recurring financial information. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of the Company's ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources, and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. To the extent this release contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. The reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided above.
