CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 13, 2024-- Veradigm Inc. (OTCMKTS: MDRX), a leading provider of healthcare data and technology solutions, announced today it has reaffirmed the estimated, unaudited ranges for fiscal 2023 of GAAP Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share that it provided on January 10, 2024, in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on January 10, 2024, and initially reaffirmed on February 27, 2024.

The company also introduced initial financial guidance for Fiscal 2024 as follows:

• Revenue is expected between $620 million and $635 million
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ is expected between $104 million and $113 million
• Net Cash⁽¹⁾ of approximately $140 million subsequent to the acquisition of ScienceIO

(1) Please refer to the “Explanation of Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures” section. In providing financial guidance, the company does not reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP financial measure. Veradigm does not provide guidance for the various reconciling items since certain items that impact GAAP net income/loss such as depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense; and transaction and other costs, including costs directly related to the extended audit work, revenue restatement and Audit Committee Investigation (as defined below), any of which may be significant, are outside of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted.

“Fiscal 2024 will be a year of investment across all lines of business – initiatives that enhance our Provider portfolio, expand our offerings to Payers, and develop new data offerings for Life Sciences with the integration of ScienceIO. This year of investment sets the stage for accelerating growth and margin expansion in the years ahead. Our core business remains fundamentally sound and profitable, backstopped by ample internally available liquidity, the foundation that enables Veradigm to execute on its growth strategy and potential for long-term value creation,” said Lee Westerfield, Interim CFO.

“We are well positioned to continue to grow our core business of supporting physicians & providers, payers, and life science research enterprises. Following our acquisition of ScienceIO, we are excited to reintroduce Veradigm as a leader in Healthcare Intelligence. Together, we plan to build the first responsible, scaled language model products. Building on our strong presence across these three pillars of the healthcare marketplace, along with our proprietary language model platform, Veradigm will offer differentiated products in our Provider, Payer and Life Sciences businesses to support our customers and ultimately result in higher quality and lower cost care for patients as well as support the larger research enterprise for all of us,” said Dr. Yin Ho, Interim CEO and board member.

Later today, Dr. Yin Ho, Lee Westerfield, and Will Manidis will participate in a fireside chat and meet with investors at the Barclays 26th Annual Global Healthcare Conference. They will be discussing the strategy, growth opportunities, and financial outlook for Veradigm. The fireside chat will begin today, Wednesday, March 13, 2024, at 2:05 PM Eastern Time. The fireside chat will be webcast, and the webcast will be available in the investor section of the company’s website at investor.veradigm.com, with an archived version accessible later today.
