HEALTHSTREAM, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2012 is consistent with the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for a complete set of financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012 (included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2013).
2. INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities measured at tax rates that will be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $4.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was 41.0% and 42.9%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate primarily reflects the statutory corporate income tax rate, the net effect of state taxes, and the effect of various permanent tax differences.
3. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company maintains two stock incentive plans. The Company accounts for its stock based compensation plans using the fair-value based method for costs related to share-based payments, including stock options and restricted share units (RSUs). During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 80,250 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.02 per share, measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company issued 73,150 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value of $23.13 per share, measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant.
Total stock based compensation expense recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, which is recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of income, is as follows (in thousands):

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares, composed of incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and restricted share units subject to vesting are included in diluted earnings per share only to the extent these shares are dilutive. The total number of common equivalent shares excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect, was approximately 6,000 and 92,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and approximately 72,000 and 116,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of our financial statements. We believe the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected.
The accounting policies and estimates that we believe are the most critical in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:
| • | Revenue recognition |
| • | Accounting for income taxes |
| • | Software development costs |
| • | Goodwill, intangibles, and other long-lived assets |
| • | Allowance for doubtful accounts |
| • | Stock based compensation |
In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by US GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas where management’s judgment in selecting among available alternatives would not produce a materially different result. See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2012 Form 10-K, which contains additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures required by US GAAP. There have been no changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those reported in our 2012 Form 10-K.

Revenues for 2013 consisted of $26.6 million, or 79% of total revenue, for HealthStream Learning & Talent Management and $7.1 million, or 21% of total revenue, for HealthStream Research. In 2012, revenues consisted of $20.4 million, or 77% of total revenue, for HealthStream Learning & Talent Management and $6.0 million, or 23% of total revenue, for HealthStream Research.
Revenues for HealthStream Learning & Talent Management increased $6.2 million, or 30.6%, over the third quarter of 2012. Revenues from our Internet-based subscription learning and talent management products increased by $5.4 million, or 28.1%, over the prior year third quarter due to a higher number of subscribers and more courseware consumption by subscribers. Revenues in the third quarter of 2013 were positively influenced by courseware subscriptions associated with, among other products, ICD-10 training. Revenues from ICD-10 training were approximately $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2013, up $3.3 million over the prior year third quarter. Since 2011, we have contracted for over one million end-user subscriptions for our ICD-10 training solution, which has a retail price that generally ranges from $15 to $125 per user per year, with the average user price situated near the bottom end of the range. In the third quarter of 2013, a majority of new contracts for this solution were for a 24 month subscription period. Our subscriber base increased to 3.19 million fully-implemented subscribers and 3.41 million contracted subscribers at September 30, 2013 compared to 2.87 million fully-implemented subscribers and 2.98 million contracted subscribers at September 30, 2012.

Net Income. Net income increased approximately $834,000, or 14.3%, to $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Earnings per diluted share were $0.24 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $0.21 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Adjusted EBITDA (which we define as net income before interest, income taxes, stock based compensation, and depreciation and amortization) increased by 14.6% to approximately $18.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $15.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This improvement is consistent with the factors mentioned above. See Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for our reconciliation of this calculation to measures under US GAAP.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP revenue and adjusted EBITDA, which are used by management in analyzing its financial results and ongoing operational performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance which are prepared in accordance with US GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
In order to better assess the Company’s financial results, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company because adjusted EBITDA reflects net income adjusted for non-cash and non-operating items. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by many investors and securities analysts to assess the Company’s results from current operations. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as a measure of financial performance under US GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with US GAAP, it is susceptible to varying calculations. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The Company understands that, although adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluation of companies, this measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results as reported under US GAAP. For example, adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; it does not reflect non-cash components of employee compensation; it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and due to the Company’s utilization of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards in 2012 and 2013, actual cash income tax payments have been significantly less than the tax provision recorded in accordance with US GAAP, and income tax payments will continue to be less than the income tax provision until our existing federal and state net operating loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or have expired.
13
Management compensates for the inherent limitations associated with using adjusted EBITDA through disclosure of such limitations, presentation of our financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable US GAAP measure.
In order to provide more accurate trends and comparisons of the Company’s revenues, operating income, and net income, management believes that adding back the deferred revenue write-down associated with fair value accounting for acquired businesses provides a better indication of the ongoing performance of the Company. The revenue for the acquired contracts is deferred and typically recognized over a one year period, so our US GAAP revenues for the one year period after the acquisition will not reflect the full amount of revenues that would have been reported if the acquired deferred revenue was not written down to fair value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by approximately $7.2 million, or 46.5%, to $22.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $15.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The number of days sales outstanding (DSO) was 61 days for the third quarter of 2013 compared to 55 days for the third quarter of 2012. The Company calculates DSO by dividing the average accounts receivable balance, excluding unbilled and other receivables, by average daily revenues for the quarter. The Company’s primary sources of cash were receipts generated from the sales of our products and services. The primary uses of cash to fund operations included personnel expenses, sales commissions, royalty payments, payments for contract labor and other direct expenses associated with delivery of our products and services, and general corporate expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $11.9 million and $69.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During 2013, the Company purchased $67.6 million of marketable securities, utilized $7.4 million on acquisitions, spent $3.0 million for capitalized software development, and purchased $2.4 million of property and equipment. These uses of cash were partially offset by maturities and sales of marketable securities of $68.8 million. During 2012, the Company purchased $95.3 million of marketable securities, utilized $2.9 million on acquisitions, spent $3.1 million for capitalized software development, and purchased $3.2 million of property and equipment. These uses of cash were partially offset by maturities of marketable securities of $35.1 million.
Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $2.8 million and $791,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The primary source of cash from financing activities for 2013 and 2012 resulted from proceeds associated with the exercise of stock options.
Revenues increased and operating income improved over the prior year period, and our balance sheet reflects positive working capital of $86.3 million at September 30, 2013 compared to $83.3 million at December 31, 2012. The increase in working capital was primarily due to the cash generated from operations and increases in accounts receivable balances. The Company’s primary source of liquidity is $104.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company also has a $20.0 million revolving credit facility loan agreement, all of which was available at September 30, 2013.
14
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, cash generated from operations, and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital, new product development and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Over the past eight years, we have utilized our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income. We anticipate our remaining net operating loss carryforwards will become fully utilized within the next 12 to 24 months. Our actual tax payments may increase significantly once the net operating loss carryforwards are fully utilized. As part of our growth strategy, we have recently completed several acquisitions and we continue to review possible acquisitions that complement our products and services. We anticipate that future acquisitions, if any, would be effected through a combination of stock and cash consideration. The issuance of our stock could have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and could adversely affect our stock price. Because we have no material debt or outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, our balance sheet is unleveraged. Our revolving credit facility contains financial covenants and availability calculations designed to set a maximum leverage ratio of outstanding debt to equity. Therefore, if we were to borrow against our revolving credit facility, our debt capacity would be dependent on the covenant values at the time of borrowing. As of September 30, 2013, we believe we were in compliance with all covenants. The credit markets have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption, and we cannot provide assurances that if we need additional financing that it will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. Failure to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or raise additional capital when required in sufficient amounts and on terms acceptable to us could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. We do not have any foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding debt. We may become subject to interest rate market risk associated with any future borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The interest rate under the revolving credit facility is based on 30 Day LIBOR plus a margin of either 175 or 200 basis points determined in accordance with a pricing grid. We are exposed to market risk with respect to our cash and investment balances, which approximated $104.7 million at September 30, 2013. Assuming a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates, interest income from cash and investments would decrease on an annualized basis by approximately $59,000.
The Company’s investment policy and strategy is focused on investing in highly rated securities, with the objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. The Company’s policy limits the amount of credit exposure to any single issuer and sets limits on the average portfolio maturity.
The above market risk discussion and the estimated amounts presented are forward-looking statements of market risk assuming the occurrence of certain adverse market conditions. Actual results in the future may differ materially from those projected as a result of actual developments in the market.
