RALEIGH, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Phreesia, Inc. (NYSE: PHR) (“Phreesia” or the “Company”) announced financial results today for the fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 31, 2022.

“Our organization has accomplished much to be proud of in fiscal year 2022, Phreesia’s 17th year and our third as a public company,” said CEO and Co-Founder Chaim Indig. “We experienced tremendous growth in our platform, our capabilities and our team, and we greatly appreciate our employees’ hard work and the support and partnership of our clients and investors.”

• Average revenue per healthcare services client was $18,430, up 3% year-over-year.
• Adjusted EBITDA was negative $30.5 million in the quarter, as compared to negative $0.1 million in the same period in the prior year.

Outlook for Fiscal 2023

For the full fiscal year 2023, ending January 31, 2023, we expect revenue to be between $271 million and $275 million, implying year-over-year growth of 27% to 29%. For the full fiscal year 2023, ending January 31, 2023, we expect Adjusted EBITDA to be between negative $154 million and negative $149 million.

We expect our Adjusted EBITDA outlook in fiscal 2023 to be the low annual mark for fiscal years 2023 through 2025. We expect to see operating leverage in the early part of fiscal year 2024 and approach profitability¹ in fiscal year 2025.

We have not provided a reconciliation of our Adjusted EBITDA outlook to GAAP Net income (loss) because we do not provide an outlook for Net income (loss) due to the uncertainty and potential variability of Other income, net and Provision for (benefit from) 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, please see “Non-GAAP financial measures” below.

Fiscal 2025 Target

We also are introducing an annualized revenue target of $500 million to be achieved during a quarter of fiscal year 2025.² We believe our platform and diverse revenue streams offer us multiple paths for achieving our target.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

¹ Profitability in terms of Adjusted EBITDA

² For our target revenue, annualized is defined as multiplying the highest-revenue quarter in fiscal year 2025 by four.

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 expense (income), net, (benefit from) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and other (income) expense, 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K 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 expense (income), 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:
