“Fiscal year 2023 was pivotal for Electromed,” said Jim Cunniff, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The team delivered exceptional results, including record revenues of $13.6 million in the fourth quarter, a 21% year-over-year growth rate and over $48 million for the fiscal year, despite facing headwinds from the expiration of the CMS waiver and macro supply chain disruptions. The team made strides on our key strategic milestones, most importantly launching the next generation SmartVest Clearway device, a sleeker, lighter-weight, user-friendly device, and the first new HFCWO technology to be introduced to the market in years. We continue to invest in our commercial organization and direct-to-consumer marketing efforts as we march toward greater market penetration and adoption. The operating leverage generated by these investments is clear in our annual results.”
Fiscal 2024 Strategic Priorities
Mr. Cunniff continued, “As I step into the role of President and Chief Executive Officer, I am grateful for the solid foundation created by Kathleen Skarvan, former President and Chief Executive Officer, and current Board Chair. Looking into Fiscal Year 2024, we will continue to execute against Electromed’s four strategic pillars: continued thoughtful sales force expansion; direct to consumer and direct to physician marketing; infrastructure to support anticipated sales growth which includes operational and manufacturing excellence; and finally, we will continue to add to the body of clinical evidence to further support HFCWO therapy as an efficacious therapy for bronchiectasis. We believe that bronchiectasis is under-recognized and under-diagnosed, but we believe this is changing and we are poised to capture increased diagnoses and subsequent prescriptions. I am confident that our continued attention to these strategic pillars will accelerate topline growth, improve our operating margin, and in turn increase shareholder value.”
Q4 FY 2023 Review
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) increased 20.8% to $13.6 million, from $11.3 million in the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”), primarily driven by 22.8% growth in the home care business which benefitted from an increase in direct sales representatives, increased sales representative productivity driven by increased clinic access and patient flow and our sales team refining their selling process and clinic targeting methodology. Field sales employees totaled 55, of which 46 were direct sales, at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to 52 at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, of which 43 were direct sales. Sales force productivity continued to improve during the quarter allowing us to achieve home care revenue per direct sales rep of $945,000 for FY 2023, on the high end of the target of $850,000 to $950,000.
Distributor revenue decreased 41.2% to $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 from $0.4 million in the same period in fiscal 2022, primarily due to the timing of purchases of one of our key distribution partners. Institutional revenue increased 29.0% to $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and international revenue increased 30.2% to $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 increased to $10.5 million, or 76.8% of net revenues, from $8.1 million, or 72.0% of net revenues, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, as rising raw material and shipping costs were offset by higher Medicare allowable pricing, increased operational efficiencies and fixed cost leverage on higher revenue.
Operating income totaled $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, compared to $0.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The higher operating income was driven by increased revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $1.0 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to $0.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
FY 2023 Summary
Net revenue for the full year was $48.1 million led by Homecare revenue which increased by $5.9 million or 15.6%, to $44.0 million in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. The revenue increase compared to fiscal 2022 was primarily due to increases in referrals and approvals. The increase in referrals was primarily due to an increase in direct sales representatives, increased sales representative productivity driven by increased clinic access and patient flow, our sales team refining their selling process and clinic targeting methodology, and benefits of the CMS waiver on the non-commercial Medicare portion of our home care revenue. Additionally, we benefitted from a Medicare allowable rate increase that took effect on January 1, 2023. Annual Medicare rate increases for our device are linked closely to changes in the Urban Consumer Price Index.
The CMS waiver benefited the non-commercial Medicare portion of our home care revenue by increasing the number of referrals and the approval percentage for previously non-covered diagnoses. We believe that our ongoing sales team execution, along with the expected return to pre-COVID-19 levels of patient face-to-face engagement with physicians and clinic access for our sales team mitigated the Q4 homecare revenue impact of the CMS waiver expiration on May 11, 2023.
Institutional revenue increased by $0.4 million, or 25.3%, in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. Institutional revenue includes sales to hospitals and rental companies. The revenue increase was due to increased capital purchases and stronger consumable volumes compared to fiscal 2022, as hospitals resumed utilization of HFCWO protocols after reducing utilization early in the COVID-19 pandemic.
Home care distributor revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 9.8%, in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. The revenue increase in fiscal 2023 was due to increased demand from one of our primary home care distribution partners. We began selling to a limited number of home medical equipment distributors during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, who in turn sell our SmartVest System in the U.S. home care market.
International revenue decreased by $0.1 million, or 18.6%, in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022. International revenue growth is not currently a primary focus for us, and our corporate resources are focused on supporting and maintaining our current distributors.
Gross profit increased to $36.5 million in fiscal 2023, or 76.0% of net revenues, from $31.4 million or 75.5% of net revenues, in fiscal 2022. The increase in gross profit was primarily related to increases in domestic home care revenue including the Medicare allowable rate increase that took effect in January 2022.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $31.6 million in fiscal 2023, representing an increase of $4.5 million or 16.5% from $27.1 million in fiscal 2022. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily related to increased payroll and other compensation related expenses as a result of increased headcount.
R&D expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 32.4%, to $0.9 million in fiscal 2023 compared to $1.3 million in fiscal 2022. The decrease in the current year was primarily due to reduced professional consulting costs associated with our next generation platform development activities.
Net income for fiscal 2023 was $3.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.3 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in fiscal 2022. The increase in current year net income was primarily due to stronger home care and distributor revenue growth.
As of June 30, 2023 Electromed had $7.4 million in cash, $24.1 million in accounts receivable, and no debt, for a working capital of $29.7 million, and shareholders’ equity of $37.7 million.
