Recent Operational Highlights Include:
-
Sold Managed Print Service division on March 20, 2019 for $30 million
allowing CynergisTek to become pure play cybersecurity company - Accelerated Security revenue with growth of 20 percent year over year
-
Created three new strategic partnerships with software vendors focused
on generating new service offerings and revenue growth
“2018 was another successful year for CynergisTek where we strived to be
the trusted partner in healthcare security, privacy, and compliance,”
said Mac McMillan, President and CEO of CynergisTek. “We attribute the
growth in cybersecurity services to the increasing security threat
landscape and incidents occurring in healthcare. The significant growth
in professional services is due to the cybersecurity workforce shortage
that exists across all industries but even more so in healthcare. 2019
we will continue to see the market demand increase for these types of
services, as healthcare cannot find and retain the necessary resources
to keep up with increased security threats. Our growth was only possible
because of the dedication of our staff from the back of the house to the
front of the house.”
For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2018 Compared to the Three
Months Ended December 31, 2017
Revenue decreased by approximately $0.1 million to $18.6 million for the
three months that ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the same
period in 2017. Security related revenue increased 30% to $7.0 million
offset by a 13% reduction in managed print related services related
revenue to $11.6 million.
Cost of revenue was $12.1 million for the three months ended December
31, 2018, as compared to $12.9 million for the same period in 2017.
Payroll and benefits related to the increased Security revenues offset
equipment costs that decreased by approximately $1.6 million in 2018,
directly as a result of the decrease in equipment revenues from copier
fleet refresh activities.
Gross margin was 35 percent for the three months ended December 31, 2018
compared to 31 percent for same period in 2017. This increase was
largely due to the additional contribution from the higher margin
security revenue this quarter.
Sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses were
comparable year over year at $3.1 million for the three months ended
December 31, 2018, compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2017.
Net income was $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31,
2018, or $0.14 per basic and $0.13 per diluted share. The 2018 net
income includes a $0.4 million charge for the revalued contingent
earn-out liability in connection with the acquisition of CTEK Security,
Inc. This compares to a net loss of $(1.6) million, or $(0.17) per basic
and diluted share in the same period of 2017. The 2017 net loss included
the $1.4 million charge for the revalued contingent earn-out liability
in connection with the acquisition of CTEK Security, Inc. and an income
tax expense of $1.5 million related to the revaluation of deferred taxes
due to the change in tax law.
Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2018
was $3.3 million, or $0.34 per basic and $0.33 per diluted share,
compared to $2.0 million or $0.21 per basic and $0.20 per diluted share
for the same period of 2017.
For the 12 Months Ended December 31, 2018 Compared to the 12 Months
Ended December 31, 2017
Revenue decreased by approximately $0.5 million to $71.1 million for the
12 months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the same period in
2017. We increased our cybersecurity services revenues by approximately
$3.5 million as expected. Our office equipment, hardware & software
resales grew by approximately $1.9 million due to customer needs to
refresh their print equipment. Offsetting these increases, managed
service revenues were approximately $5.9 lower in 2018 due primarily to
nonrenewal of long-term managed print related contracts.
Cost of revenue was $50.2 million for the 12 months ended December 31,
2018, as compared to $50.7 million for the same period in 2017.
Gross margin percentage remained steady at 29% of revenue for both 2018
and 2017. The negative impact from the lower managed print service
revenue was offset by the benefit from the increased security related
services revenue which carries a higher margin.
Sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses were $13.8
million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to $13.4
million for the same period in 2017.
Net income was $1.9 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2018,
or $0.20 per basic and $0.19 per diluted share. The 2018 net income
includes a charge of $0.4 million from the revalued contingent earn-out
liability in connection with the acquisition of CTEK Security, Inc. and
$0.7 million in non-recurring charges related to our debt refinancing
and the departure of a senior executive. This compares to a net loss of
$(0.4) million, or $(0.05) per basic and diluted share in the same
period of 2017. The 2017 net loss included the charge of $1.4 million
from the revalued contingent earn-out liability in connection with the
acquisition of CTEK Security, Inc. and an income tax expense of $1.5
million related to the revaluation of deferred taxes due to the change
in tax law.
Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the 12 months ended December 31, 2018 was
$6.9 million, or $0.72 per basic and $0.70 per diluted share, compared
to $6.1 million or $0.64 per basic and $0.60 per diluted share for the
same period of 2017.

tables at the end of this release and provide the details of the
Company’s non-GAAP disclosures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP
information.
