Management Commentary

"It brings me great pleasure to share our team's accomplishments as we worked diligently during the past year to position Auxilio for sustained growth by leveraging key assets, customer relationships and integrating the Security Solutions Group, thus providing a conduit to one of the fastest growth segments within the healthcare industry," said Joseph J. Flynn, President and CEO of Auxilio. "We were able to secure significant MPS contracts with two of the nation's largest health systems covering a majority of the United States. These contracts affirm our ability to guarantee cost efficiencies and process improvement methodologies to major health systems and firmly positions us as a leader in the MPS space. Our current book of business has improved visibility and paves the way for sustained double digit top-line growth during the next two years," continued Mr. Flynn. 

"We will utilize our position as a valued provider to healthcare systems to further advance our risk and information security offerings. We believe this area of our business can grow significantly due to the HIPAA compliance requirement to maintain, safe keep, transfer and secure all aspects of data, and further bolstered by high profile breaches and resulting large fines. We plan to further expand our capabilities in this important vertical by introducing new services like printer fleet security management. In addition to driving organic growth across existing and new healthcare customers, we are evaluating targeted acquisitions which will further expand the breadth and depth of our offering in this vertical," Mr. Flynn further commented. 

Financial Results for the Full Year ended December 31, 2014

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported revenues of $44.0 million, an increase of 2.5% when compared to $43.0 million in 2013. Net service revenues increased $1.1 million, which included $3.3 million in new service contracts and $1.2 million from the addition of Delphiis, partially offset by $1.1 million from a non-renewing contract, lower volume with some existing customers due to the consolidation of operations and the impact from the severe storms that hit the east coast at the beginning of 2014. Equipment sales decreased $2.3 million year-over-year to $3.6 million in 2014 with fluctuations occurring periodically due to customer equipment fleet refresh cycles that occur, on average, every five years.

Gross profit for fiscal 2014 was $8.2 million, or 18.7% of sales, compared to $7.7 million, or 17.9% of sales, for fiscal 2013. Operating expenses for fiscal 2014 were $6.6 million, compared to $5.9 million in the prior year period. Income from continuing operations was $1.7 million for fiscal 2014, compared to income from continuing operations of $1.8 million in fiscal 2013.

Net income for fiscal 2014 was $1.3 million, or $0.06 per share basic and diluted, compared to $1.3 million or $0.07 per share basic and $0.06 per diluted share, in the same period in 2013. 

After excluding charges of $311,000 related to stock-based compensation and $105,000 for amortization of intangibles, non-GAAP measure of adjusted income from operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $2.1 million compared to $2.5 million after excluding charges of $576,000 related to stock-based compensation and $190,000 in charges related to stock granted for marketing and consulting activities in the same period of 2013.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had $4.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. Cash provided by operating activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $1.5 million compared to $2.6 million during the same period in 2013. The Company maintains a $2.0 million accounts receivable line of credit with a commercial bank. 

Paul Anthony, CFO of Auxilio, explained, "The Company's value proposition of saving customers money continues to prove itself and has contributed to recent wins from existing and new customers. We significantly lower print volumes over time and eliminate waste, delivering much needed cost savings to our customers. As we have previously explained in our business model, the margins of these multi-year contracts improve as we move from the implementation phase into ongoing maintenance. We will need to invest dollars and resources to get these large MPS projects implemented during the coming year and have the necessary resources to accomplish this goal."

"The Delphiis acquisition has been accretive and with several recent wins creates a book of business ahead of our projections. Given the positive margin profile of this Security Solutions Group business we will actively invest to accelerate growth during the coming year and capitalize on the many opportunities we see across the industry," concluded Mr. Anthony. 

2015 Outlook and Events

"Momentum in our MPS business has been robust and our pipeline for new contracts is still very active. While the Company will take the necessary time to digest recent wins and move through implementation, we anticipate signing additional MPS business during 2015. We anticipate contracts to come from both existing and new customers, as a result of multiple RFP's and referrals. Industry consolidation and large scale system-wide decisions will continue to offer the largest opportunities with the longest sales cycles," concluded Mr. Flynn.

 "The US healthcare market offers a vast opportunity for Auxilio's Security Solutions Group. The most recent Anthem breach is just another in the growing number of breaches, with an increase of 600% in 2014. An average breach costs organizations $5.6M and healthcare is trailing behind the financial industry to spend the money necessary to address security. With this increasingly dangerous security landscape in healthcare, Auxilio is primed for growth with accelerated interest in our suite of security offerings from new and existing MPS customers. Our security offering is built around the most pressing needs in security, some with higher margins; Regulatory and Penetration Assessments, including Security Program Benchmarks; Delphiis™ IT Risk Manager SaaS solution, Process and Program Development, and Incident and Breach Response, including forensics. We are focusing on industry conference participation, proactive sales efforts, Auxilio hosted educational events, and introducing differentiated initiatives like our five-step security program development framework to drive new business. Our reputation as a world class MPS provider and established presence in over 200 hospitals in the US, offers ample opportunity for growth and market penetration," commented Mike Gentile, Executive VP of Innovation and Security.
