Recent Events

On June 30, 2023, we acquired Comsort, Inc. d/b/a MediFind (“MediFind”) (the “MediFind Acquisition”), for total consideration of approximately $9.0 million. Consideration transferred included $4.1 million of cash, 150,786 shares of Phreesia common stock valued at $4.7 million and liabilities of $0.1 million. We acquired $0.2 million in cash in connection with the MediFind Acquisition, and we have presented cash paid to acquire MediFind of $3.9 million in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended July 31, 2023. MediFind is a consumer-facing healthcare product that helps patients—especially those with serious, chronic and rare diseases—find better care faster. We acquired MediFind to reinforce our commitment to patient-centered care and expand our offerings to consumers.

On August 11, 2023, we acquired Access eForms, LLC (“Access”), an innovative electronic forms management and automation provider that helps hospitals across the country streamline workflows, improve compliance and deliver a better patient experience, for total consideration of $38.4 million. Consideration transferred included $6.5 million of cash, 1,096,436 shares of Phreesia common stock valued at $30.6 million and liabilities of $1.2 million. We acquired Access to enhance and build on our existing functionality in the acute care space and to expand our network of clients and partners.

Fiscal Year 2024 Outlook

We are maintaining our revenue outlook for the full fiscal year 2024 ending January 31, 2024 at between $353 million and $356 million, implying year-over-year growth of 26% to 27%.

We are raising our Adjusted EBITDA outlook for fiscal year 2024 to a range of negative $54 million to negative $49 million from a previous range of negative $60 million to negative $55 million. The change reflects our strong performance in the second quarter.

We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss). For further information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release, including a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures and an explanation of these measures, please see “Non-GAAP financial measures” below.

Fiscal Year 2025 Target

We are maintaining our $500 million revenue target to be achieved by annualizing our highest-revenue quarter in fiscal year 2025¹ and we continue to expect to reach profitability² during fiscal year 2025. We also believe our cash and cash equivalents, along with cash generated in the normal course of business, can support our path to our fiscal year 2025 targets.

We believe our platform and diverse revenue streams offer us multiple paths for achieving our targets.

¹ For our target revenue, “annualized” is defined as multiplying the highest-revenue quarter in fiscal year 2025 by four.

² For the purposes of this statement, we define “profitability” in terms of Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release and statements made during the above-referenced webcast may include certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before interest (income) expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and before stock-based compensation expense and other income, net.

We have provided below a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We have presented Adjusted EBITDA in this press release and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed after this press release because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the amounts eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for GAAP Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other (income) expense, net and (Benefit from) provision for income taxes, which are reconciling items between Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income (loss). Because we cannot reasonably predict such items, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure outlook to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. We caution, however, that such items could have a significant impact on the calculation of GAAP Net income (loss).

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:

• Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) the potentially dilutive impact of non-cash stock-based compensation; (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; or (4) interest (income) expense, net; and
• Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA along with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss, and our GAAP financial results. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss for each of the periods indicated:
