Phreesia, Inc. (NYSE:PHR) ("Phreesia" or the "Company") announced financial results today for the fiscal second quarter ended July 31, 2022.

"I am extremely proud of our team's accomplishments in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023. Phreesia impacts more than one in 10 patient visits in the U.S. each day¹, helping patients become more activated in their health and achieve better health outcomes," said CEO and Co-Founder Chaim Indig. "Our strong network and revenue growth this quarter reinforces our confidence in generating attractive returns on the accelerated investments we made during fiscal years 2021 and 2022."

Fiscal Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

Revenue was $67.9 million in the quarter as compared to $51.0 million in the same period in the prior year, an increase of 33%.
Average number of healthcare services clients was 2,776 in the quarter as compared to 1,987 in the same period in the prior year, an increase of 40%.
Average revenue per healthcare services client was $18,248 in the quarter as compared to $19,720 in the same period in the prior year, a decrease of 7%. The decline was primarily driven by healthcare services client growth significantly outpacing payment processing volume and revenue growth. Additionally, the mix of solutions used by new clients across Patient Access, Registration, Revenue Cycle and Clinical Support offerings has been a contributing factor to the declining trends in this metric.
Adjusted EBITDA was negative $26.0 million in the quarter compared to negative $11.0 million in the same period in the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents as of July 31, 2022 was $240.7 million, a decrease of $73.1 million compared to January 31, 2022.

Fiscal Year 2023 Outlook

We are updating our revenue outlook for fiscal year 2023 to a range of $273 million to $275 million, up from $271 million to $275 million, based on our first half performance and our updated view of our business and the macro environment. Our new revenue outlook implies year-over-year growth of 28% to 29%.

We expect average healthcare services clients to increase by at least 200 in the fiscal third quarter of 2023 ending on October 31, 2022.

We are raising our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for fiscal year 2023 to a range of negative $109 million to negative $106 million, from a previous range of negative $126 million to negative $122 million, based on our first half performance. This update reflects continued improvements in overall productivity and efficiency across our organization.

We expect our cash outflows in the second half of fiscal year 2023 to result in a January 31, 2023 cash and cash equivalents balance in a range of $165 million to $170 million. We continue to expect our Adjusted EBITDA outlook in fiscal year 2023 to be the low annual mark for fiscal years 2023 to 2025.

We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss). For further information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release, including a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures and an explanation of these measures, please see "Non-GAAP financial measures" below.

Fiscal Year 2025 Target

We are maintaining our $500 million revenue target to be achieved by annualizing our highest-revenue quarter in fiscal year 2025¹and continue to expect to reach profitability²in fiscal year 2025.

We believe our platform and diverse revenue streams offer us multiple paths for achieving our targets.

¹ For our target revenue, annualized is defined as multiplying the highest-revenue quarter in fiscal year 2025 by four.

²For the purposes of this statement, we define "profitability" in terms of Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release and statements made during the above-referenced webcast may include certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before interest expense (income), net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and other (income) expense, net.

We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA in this press release and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the amounts eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss).

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:

Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) the potentially dilutive impact of non-cash stock-based compensation; (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; or (4) Interest expense (income), net; and
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA along with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss, and our GAAP financial results. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss for each of the periods indicated:

Phreesia, Inc. Key Metrics (Unaudited)

Key Metrics:
Healthcare services clients (average over period)		2,776		1,987		2,651		1,945
Average revenue per healthcare services client	$	18,248	$	19,720	$	37,397	$	39,932

We remain focused on building secure and reliable products that derive a strong return on investment for our clients and implementing them with speed and ease. This strategy continues to enable us to grow our network of healthcare services clients. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022, during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, we renamed our key metric "provider clients (average over period)" to "healthcare services clients (average over period)." We also renamed our key metric "average revenue per provider client" to "average revenue per healthcare services client."

Healthcare services clients. We define healthcare services clients as the average number of healthcare services client organizations that generate revenue each month during the applicable period. In cases where we act as a subcontractor providing white-label services to our partner's clients, we treat the contractual relationship as a single healthcare services client. We believe growth in the number of healthcare services clients is a key indicator of the performance of our business and depends, in part, on our ability to successfully develop and market our Platform to healthcare services organizations that are not yet clients. While growth in the number of healthcare services clients is an important indicator of expected revenue growth, it also informs our management of the areas of our business that will require further investment to support expected future healthcare services client growth. For example, as the number of healthcare services clients increases, we may need to add to our customer support team and invest to maintain effectiveness and performance of our Platform and software for our healthcare services clients and their patients.
Average revenue per healthcare services client. We define average revenue per healthcare services client as the total subscription and related services and payment processing revenue generated from healthcare services clients in a given period divided by the average number of healthcare services clients that generate revenue each month during that same period. We are focused on continually delivering value to our healthcare services clients and believe that our ability to increase average revenue per healthcare services client is an indicator of the long-term value of the Phreesia platform.

Payment facilitator volume percentage		80	%		78	%		80	%		78	%

Patient payment volume. We believe that patient payment volume is an indicator of both the underlying health of our healthcare services clients' businesses and the continuing shift of healthcare costs to patients. We measure patient payment volume as the total dollar volume of transactions between our healthcare services clients and their patients utilizing our payment platform, including via credit and debit cards that we process as a payment facilitator as well as cash and check payments and credit and debit transactions for which we act as a gateway to other payment processors.
Payment facilitator volume percentage. We define payment facilitator volume percentage as the volume of credit and debit card patient payment volume that we process as a payment facilitator as a percentage of total patient payment volume. Payment facilitator volume is a major driver of our payment processing revenue. Our payment facilitator volume percentage could decline slightly over time should we increase our penetration of enterprise customers that are less likely to use Phreesia as a payment facilitator.
