VITALHUB CORP. REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2022 RESULTS
Vitalhub Corp. has filed its consolidated financial statements and management's discussion and analysis report for the fiscal year (FY) ended Dec. 31, 2022, with the Canadian securities authorities. These documents may be viewed under the company's profile on SEDAR.
"Our record fourth quarter revenue capped off fiscal 2022 with strong positive momentum across all of our key performance indicators," said Dan Matlow, chief executive officer of Vitalhub. "The positive organic and accretive inorganic growth contributed to record Q4 and fiscal 2022 revenue, adjusted EBITDA (2) and annual recurring revenue (ARR) (1) (2). We have achieved these milestones despite the continued foreign currency headwinds associated with the British pound as contributions from Community Data Solutions (CDS) and Advanced Digital Innovation (ADI) helped drive ARR (1) (2) to over $36-million. We have continued to grow our organic ARR (1) (2) by 3.0 per cent or $925,000 and achieved record adjusted EBITDA (2) of $2.4-million, representing 22 per cent of revenue for Q4 2022. With the addition of Coyote Software Corp. after the quarter, the company's estimated ARR (1) (2) would be approximately $37-million. We closed the quarter with $17.5-million in cash on hand and, combined with the availability of a Bank of Nova Scotia facility, we currently have $50.5-million at our disposal for operations and to continue progressing our acquisition strategy. We have concluded the fiscal 2022 year with four major acquisitions, including Community Data Solutions, Advanced Digital Innovation, Beautiful Information and Hicom, and in addition grew our organic ARR (1) (2) by 18.5 per cent or $4.1-million and achieved record adjusted EBITDA (2) of $9.5-million, representing 24 per cent of revenue. For fiscal 2022, the company has consistently focused and executed organic growth initiatives that complemented synergistic M&A activities to deliver strong value to our shareholders. We are excited by the market traction and penetration we have achieved in fiscal 2022 and look forward to continuing efforts to scale our business in 2023."
Vitalhub's quarterly investor conference call will take place on Friday, March 24, 2023, at 9 a.m. EST.
