Vitalhub Corp. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results
TORONTO, March 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vitalhub Corp. (the “Company” or “Vitalhub”) (TSX:VHI) (OTCQX:VHIBF) announced today it has filed its Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis report for the year ended December 31, 2022, with the Canadian securities authorities. These documents may be viewed under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.
“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% or $925k and achieved record adjusted EBITDA(2) of $2.4 million representing 22% of revenue for Q4 2022. With the addition of Coyote Software Corporation (“Coyote”) 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% or $4.1 million and achieved record adjusted EBITDA(2) of $9.5 million representing 24% 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 Corp’s quarterly investor conference call will take place on Friday, March 24, 2023, at 9:00AM EST.
