Management Commentary

Daniel Virnich, CEO of TOI, commented, "I am very pleased with our strong performance in the second quarter of 2023, as we delivered 32% topline growth and expanded our gross margin. Fee-for-service and oral drug revenue performed better than we expected and organic growth was robust in both established and expansion markets. We formed two new strategic partnerships during the quarter and acquired SRON to expand our presence in the Greater Los Angeles market. As we look toward the balance of the year, we are reaffirming our 2023 guidance given the momentum in our business and our optimism that we can execute against our strategic initiatives.   Longer term, we are confident in our ability to achieve sustainable growth and deliver even greater value to our patients, partners and other key stakeholders.”

Reaffirmed Outlook for Fiscal Year 2023

TOI uses Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric, as an additional tool to assess its operational performance. See "Financial Information: Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below. In reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception for forward-looking information provided under Regulation S-K, TOI is not reasonably able to provide a quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts due to uncertainties regarding taxes, share-based compensation, goodwill impairment charges, change in fair value of liabilities, unrealized (gains) losses on investments, practice acquisition-related costs, consulting and legal fees, transaction costs and other non-cash items. The variability of these items could have an unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on TOI’s future GAAP financial results. TOI expects interest expense in the range of $4 million to $5 million, other adjustment add backs in the range of $2 million to $4 million, and depreciation and amortization in the range of $4 million to $6 million. TOI is not adding back new clinic startup or acquisition costs for this non-GAAP metric.

2023 Guidance - Reaffirmed
Revenue$290 to $320 million, representing approximately 15% to 27% growth over 2022 revenue
Gross Profit$60 to $70 million
Adjusted EBITDA$(25) to $(28) million
Value-based lives(1)1.75 million to 2.0 million lives

(1) Represents lives under capitation contracts.

TOI's achievement of the anticipated results is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those disclosed in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The outlook does not take into account the impact of any unanticipated developments in the business or changes in the operating environment, nor does it take into account the impact of TOI's acquisitions, dispositions or financings during 2023. TOI's outlook assumes a largely reopened global market, which would be negatively impacted if closures or other restrictive measures persist or are reimplemented.

Second Quarter 2023 Results (for the three months ended June 30, 2023)

Consolidated revenue for Q2 2023 was $80 million, an increase of 31.7% compared to Q2 2022, and a 5.3% increase compared to Q1 2023.

Revenue for patient services was $53 million, up 36.6% compared to Q2 2022. Growth in patient services revenue was driven by an increase in fee-for-service ("FFS") revenue due to practice acquisitions and an overall increase in clinic count. Dispensary revenue increased 24.6% compared to Q2 2022 due to an increase in the number of filled prescriptions, offset by a slight decrease in the average revenue per filled prescription. Clinical trials & other revenue increased by 0.5% compared to Q2 2022 primarily due to an increase in California Proposition 56 revenue and TOI Clinical Research revenue.

Gross profit in Q2 2023 was $15 million, an increase of 35.7% compared to Q2 2022. The increase was primarily driven by improved cost management of oral and IV drugs and enhanced rebate opportunities. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting direct costs of patient services, dispensary, and clinical trials and other from consolidated revenues.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in Q2 2023 were $29 million or 35.8% of revenue, compared with $28 million, or 46.5% of revenue, in Q2 2022. During Q2 2023, share-based compensation expense was $4 million. The remainder of the increase in SG&A expenses was due to headcount and other costs associated with operating as a public company and supporting revenue growth and expansion into new markets.

Net loss for Q2 2023 was $16.9 million, an increase of $11 million in net loss compared to Q2 2022 primarily due to a $10.8 million decrease in the change in fair value of earnout liabilities. Adjusted EBITDA was $(6.9) million in Q2 2023 and Q2 2022.

First Half 2023 Results (for the six months ended June 30, 2023)

Consolidated revenue for the first half of 2023 was $156 million, an increase of 34.7% compared to the first half of 2022. Revenue for patient services the first half of 2023 was $104 million, up 39.8% compared to the first half of 2022. Growth in patient services revenue was driven by an increase in FFS revenue due to practice acquisitions and an overall increase in clinic count. Dispensary revenue increased 27.1% compared to the first half of 2022 due to an increase in the number of filled prescriptions, offset by a slight decrease in the average revenue per filled prescription. Clinical trials & other revenue increased by 8.7% compared to the first half of 2022 primarily due to an increase in California Proposition 56 revenue and TOI Clinical Research revenue.

Gross profit in the first half of 2023 was $29 million, an increase of 24.5% compared to the first half of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by improved cost management of oral and IV drugs and enhanced rebate opportunities. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting direct costs of patient services, dispensary, and clinical trials and other from consolidated revenues.

SG&A expenses in the first half of 2023 were $58 million or 36.8% of revenue, compared with $58 million, or 50.1% of revenue, in the first half of 2022. During the first half of 2023, share-based compensation expense was $9 million compared to $15 million for the same period of 2022.

Net loss for the first half of 2023 was $47 million, a decrease of $61 million in income compared to the first half of 2022 primarily due to a $46 million decrease in the change in fair value of earnout liabilities, as well as a goodwill impairment charge of $17 million in the first half of 2023 that did not occur in the same period of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $(14) million, a decrease of $2 million compared to the first half of 2022.

Financial Information; Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial information and data contained in this press release, such as Adjusted EBITDA, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). TOI believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool to assess operational performance and trends in, and in comparing our financial measures with, other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. TOI’s non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in TOI's financial statements. Because of the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures, you should consider the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release in conjunction with TOI’s financial statements and the related notes thereto.

TOI defines Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income plus depreciation, amortization, net interest expense, income taxes, non-cash addbacks, share-based compensation, goodwill impairment charges, changes in fair value of liabilities, unrealized gains or losses on investments and other adjustments to add-back the following: consulting and legal fees related to acquisitions, deferred consideration payment for practice acquisition, one-time consulting and legal fees related to certain advisory projects, software implementations and debt or equity financings, severance expense and temporary labor and recruiting charges to build out our corporate infrastructure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most comparable GAAP metric, is set forth below.
