Company Sees Initial Sales Momentum in China for OPKO Health Products as it Prepares for the Launch of its Florida Sunshine Brand of Vitamins and Supplements

COCONUT GROVE, Fla. , Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NextPlat Corp (NASDAQ: NXPL, NXPLW) ("NextPlat" or the "Company"), a global e-Commerce provider, today announced results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 which includes the consolidation of the operations of its e-Commerce Operations with the results of its Healthcare Operations from Progressive Care LLC (formerly Progressive Care Inc., or "Progressive Care").

"Top-line results for the first nine months of 2024 reflect the positive contributions of Progressive Care, providing us access into the large healthcare contracted services market, and our most recent acquisition, Outfitter Satellite, bolstering our e-Commerce business. These transactions are expected to bring both significant long-term growth in their respective markets and importantly, drive positive cashflows as our team works to fully integrate them and implement cost-cutting measures through the fourth quarter of 2024, improving efficiencies and removing redundancies across the organization into 2025," said Charles M. Fernandez, Executive Chairman and CEO of NextPlat Corp.

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • Consolidated revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was approximately $15.4 million compared to approximately $15.3 million in the same period last year. Total e-Commerce revenues were approximately $3.8 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively, an increase of approximately 31% mainly due to the Outfitter acquisition on April 1, 2024. Total Healthcare Operations revenues were approximately $11.5 million and $12.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively, a decrease primarily due to a decline in retail pharmacy prescription reimbursement rates in line with continuing industry trends occurring with U.S. independent pharmacies. Consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was approximately $49.8 million, an increase of over 136% versus revenue of approximately $21.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $27.3 million from Healthcare Operations as a result of the Progressive Care acquisition on July 1, 2023. Based upon current expectations, available product inventory and the number of new and existing pharmacy service contracts, the Company currently expects full-year 2024 revenue to be in the range of approximately $60 million to $65 million.
  • Gross profit margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, declined to 22.9% primarily attributable to the decrease in retail prescription drug reimbursement rates in Healthcare Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, overall gross profit margin remained consistent at approximately 28% when compared to the prior year period. Gross profit margin for e-Commerce Operations was 28.1%, remaining at near record levels largely due to continued increases in higher margin recurring airtime revenue. Gross profit margin for Healthcare Operations in the third quarter of 2024 was 21.2%. Healthcare Operations continues to experience pressures from medication price increases despite reimbursement rates not keeping pace with those increases.
  • Operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, were approximately $11.5 million compared to approximately $8.1 million for the same period in 2023. A significant 45.2% decrease in recurring selling, general and administrative expenses in the quarter were offset by a non-cash impairment loss of approximately $3.7 million related to intangible assets recognized in the Progressive Care acquisition. Additional expenses included professional fees of approximately $2.1 million mainly attributable to costs related to the merger with Progressive Care as well as non-recurring litigation and other legal fees.
  • As a result of acquiring a controlling interest in Progressive Care on July 1, 2023, under U.S. GAAP for mergers and acquisitions, the Company recorded previously unrecognized goodwill and other intangibles which were recorded at fair values based on Progressive Care's stock price on July 1, 2023 as well as estimates of future book of business. Declines in Progressive Care's stock price and changes in its estimated book of business caused a decline in the fair value of the goodwill and intangibles. Thus, under U.S. GAAP, the Company was required to adjust its fair value estimates for goodwill and the intangibles resulting in non-cash impairment losses totaling $13.7 million recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company now expects no further impairment losses from the acquisition of Progressive Care.
    • Year-to-date, the Company recorded a total of approximately $34.9 million in operating expenses, which included non-recurring expenses of approximately $13.7 million in non-cash impairment losses and approximately $3.4 million in expenses related to the merger with Progressive Care.
    • The Company expects significant annual reductions in operating costs through cost savings from ongoing integration efforts of Progressive Care. These efforts include trimming delivery costs, rightsizing staffing, and removing duplicated public company expenses including professional services such as legal and accounting services, as well as the reduction of other selling, general and administrative costs by eliminating existing redundancies.
  • Net loss attributable to NextPlat Corp common shareholders for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, was approximately $4.2 million, or ($0.22) per diluted share, compared to a net income attributable to NextPlat Corp common shareholders of approximately $3.4 million, or $0.17 diluted earnings per share, reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net loss attributable to NextPlat Corp common shareholders was approximately $11.0 million, or ($0.58) per diluted share, compared to a net loss attributable to NextPlat Corp common shareholders of approximately $2.1 million, or ($0.12) per diluted share.
  • The Company ended the third quarter of 2024 with approximately $20.4 million in cash representing a net cash burn of approximately $5.9 million year-to-date. The use of cash primarily consisted of approximately $3.4 million in non-recurring operating expenses plus approximately $1.0 million related to the Outfitter acquisition, and approximately $1.5 million used in recurring operating expenses.

Organizational Highlights and Recent Business Developments:

David Phipps, President of NextPlat and CEO of Global Operations, added, "We have worked to transform our business in terms of products, services and capability to reach consumers globally, including completing the strategic acquisition of Outfitter Satellite and the merger of Progressive Care. These transactions bring unique value to NextPlat as we seek to leverage our existing capabilities to better serve our customers. We are particularly pleased with the continued momentum we are seeing in North America through Outfitter and in China for our initial health and wellness products catalogue supported by our new in-country marketing partner, providing confidence in the large opportunities ahead of us."
