Babylon Reports Q1 2023 Financial Results

Babylon Holdings Limited (NYSE: BBLN) (“Babylon” or the “Company”) today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

First Quarter Financial Results

Comparison of the following financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023, to the three months ended March 31, 2022:

  • Total revenue was $311.1 million compared to $266.4 million, a 1.2x year-over-year increase of $44.7 million. This was primarily due to the growth in VBC revenue, which increased by 17% year-over-year to $287.5 million in Q1 2023.
  • Net loss totaled $63.2 million, a (20.3)% Net loss margin compared to Net loss of $29.1 million, a (10.9)% Net loss margin in Q1 2022. Net income in Q1 2022 included a $78.8 million gain primarily relating to the Company going public.
  • Adjusted EBITDA totaled $(45.8) million, a (14.7)% Adjusted EBITDA Margin, compared to $(82.6) million Adjusted EBITDA, or (31.0)% Adjusted EBITDA Margin, in Q1 2022. 

Key Highlights

  • Improved VBC Revenue mix, exiting two Medicaid contracts and going live on January 1, 2023 with our digital-first Commercial Exchange product, Ambetter, resulting in nearly 60% of our VBC revenue coming from non-Medicaid members
  • Continued disciplined execution of previously announced cost reduction initiatives, including completion of the sale of a non-core business
  • Ambetter digital-first service for Commercial members exceeded projections with 38% membership growth YTD, members are 12+ times faster to register and have demonstrated 8x engagement rates, higher than any of our other cohorts
  • Appointments in our U.K. Private business grew 83% YoY, with over 186K appointments delivered in Q1 2023

Financial Guidance, Balance Sheet Cash and Other Important Information

In light of the Company’s announcement today concerning an interim financing and proposed take private transaction to be led by AlbaCore Capital LLP and affiliates, the Company has withdrawn its full-year 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance, and its mid-2024 target for Adjusted EBITDA profitability, issued on March 9, 2023. The Company is not providing updated guidance at this time.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $77.7 million, including $52.1 million of cash classified as held for sale.

First Quarter 2023 Earnings Call and Additional Notes

Babylon will not host its previously announced conference call on May 10, 2023 to discuss first quarter 2023 results.

Babylon’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2023 is being filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and will be available in the Investor Relations section of Babylon’s website at https://ir.babylonhealth.com.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margin and Cost of Care Delivery Margin are non-GAAP financial measures (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”) and have certain limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of any of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because some issuers calculate certain of the Non-GAAP Measures differently or not at all, limiting their usefulness as direct comparative measures. An explanation of our Non-GAAP measures, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP measure, Net loss, and the calculations of Net loss Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margin and Cost of Care Delivery Margins have been provided at the end of this press release.

About Babylon

At Babylon, our mission is to make quality healthcare accessible and affordable for every person on Earth. To this end, we are building an integrated digital first primary care service that can manage population health at scale.

Founded in 2013, we are reengineering how people engage with their care at every step of the healthcare continuum. By flipping the model from reactive sick care to proactive healthcare through the devices people already own, we offer millions of people globally, ongoing, always-on care. And, we have already shown that in environments as diverse as the developed UK or developing Rwanda, urban New York or rural Missouri, for people of all ages, it is possible to achieve our mission by leveraging our highly scalable, digital-first platform combined with high quality, virtual clinical operations to provide integrated, personalized healthcare.

Today, we support a global patient network across 15 countries, and operate in 16 languages. In 2021 alone, Babylon helped a patient every 6 seconds, with approximately 5.2 million consultations and AI interactions. Importantly, this was achieved with a 93% user retention rate in our NHS GP at Hand service and 4 or 5-star ratings from more than 90% of our users across all of our geographies. We are working to demonstrate how our model of digital first integrated primary care can be applied to manage the health of the population in different settings across Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial value based care contracts in the US and our primary care services in the UK.

Babylon is also working with governments, health providers, employers and insurers across the globe to provide them with a new digital-first platform that any partner can use to deliver high-quality healthcare with lower costs and better outcomes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

EBITDA is defined as Net (loss) income, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, net interest income (expense), and income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net (loss) income, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, net interest income (expense), income taxes, impairment expenses, stock-based compensation, foreign exchange gains (losses), restructuring and other termination benefits, gains (losses) on settlement of warrants, gains (losses) on fair value remeasurement, premium deficiency reserve (income) expenses and gains (losses) on sale of subsidiaries and related transaction costs. We define Medical Loss Ratio as the absolute value of claims expense divided by Value-based care revenue. We define Medical Margin as one minus the Medical Loss Ratio. We define Medical Loss Ratio as the absolute value of claims expense divided by Value-based care revenue. We define Medical Margin as one minus the Medical loss ratio. We define Cost of Care Delivery Margin as one minus the absolute value of claims expense and clinical care delivery expense divided by total revenue. Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margins and Cost of Care Delivery Margins are derived from amounts presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and the associated Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margin and Cost of Care Delivery Margin (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”) are useful metrics for investors to understand and evaluate our operating results and ongoing profitability because they permit investors to evaluate our recurring profitability from our ongoing operating activities.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margin and Cost of Care Delivery Margin have certain limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of any of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because some issuers calculate certain of the Non-GAAP Measures differently or not at all, limiting their usefulness as direct comparative measures.

The following table presents a reconciliation of specific GAAP measures to the Non-GAAP Measures used by management. These include EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from the most directly comparable GAAP measure, Net (loss) income, and the calculations of Net (loss) income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Medical Loss Ratio, Medical Margin and Cost of Care Delivery Margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:
