August 12, 2020 Off By BusinessWire

Named in Money.com’s list of five best online pharmacies for 2020

CINCINNATI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (OTC: HEWA) announced today that its net sales for the second quarter of 2020 were $4,557,444, a 15% increase over the same quarter in 2019. It reported a loss from operations of $93,300 for the quarter but positive cash flow, as reflected by its internal measure of Adjusted EBITDA as defined below, which was $124,148 in the second quarter.

HealthWarehouse.com is an online mail-order pharmacy authorized to sell and deliver prescription medications to all 50 states and is one of the first accredited digital pharmacies approved by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP).

“We are happy to announce continued growth amid the pandemic while also generating positive cash flow throughout the quarter,” said Joseph Peters, President and CEO. “We have balanced our commitment to operational efficiency with an influx of new visitors and revenue growth, as we continue to see a change in consumer demand toward transparent pricing, secure shipping and handling, and convenient online services to fill their healthcare needs. This shift in consumers’ thinking and preferences has resulted in our second straight record-breaking quarter of unique website visits.”

HealthWarehouse.com also reported that Money.com named it one of the five best online pharmacies of 2020. The popular personal finance website recognized that the Company has earned a reputation for being one of the most affordable pharmaceutical options and highlighted the Company’s customer service offering.

“Our accessibility, transparency, and outstanding service levels are a few of the reasons we have been named a top online pharmacy by Money. (Read more…)com. We are proud to be recognized and appreciate the selection,” Peters added.

In addition to its operational accomplishments, the Company completed the second tranche of a convertible note financing and repaid its short-term senior debt during the quarter.

Peters called the completion of the long-term financing “a key step toward improving our balance sheet and capital structure. The long-term commitment and our current liquidity position offer stability to the Company, and position us well to take advantage of future opportunities.”

Peters noted that Healthwarehouse.com is an essential business and continues to operate during the pandemic. Over sixty percent of its 110 employees work remotely; a dedicated fulfillment team continues to operate on-site. During the quarter, HealthWarehouse.com issued “Hero Pay” to all employees.

Peters added, “Every member of the HealthWarehouse.com team has done an amazing job since the pandemic hit. As an essential business, we have been able to provide a bit of stability in a world of furloughs and unemployment in which stability is becoming more and more rare. We were proud to be able to provide a well-earned “Hero Pay” bonus to our entire team as a small token of our appreciation for their efforts. Everyone on-site and off-site has risen to the challenge, and continues to provide the excellent pharmacy services that our patients have come to know and love.”

Use of Non-­GAAP Financial Measures

HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (the “Company”) prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with the United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company discloses information regarding EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are commonly used. In addition to adjusting net loss to exclude interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation, and certain nonrecurring charges. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance defined in accordance with GAAP. However, Adjusted EBITDA is used internally in planning and evaluating the Company`s performance. Accordingly, management believes that disclosure of this metric offers lenders and other shareholders an additional view of the Company`s operations that, when coupled with GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or to net cash used in operating activities as a measure of operating results or of liquidity. It may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, and it excludes financial information that some may consider important in evaluating the Company`s performance.
