SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Health Catalyst, Inc. (“Health Catalyst,” Nasdaq: HCAT), a healthcare intelligence company designed to accelerate measurable improvement for health systems, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

“We delivered a very productive second quarter, exceeding the high end of our revenue guidance and the midpoint of our adjusted EBITDA guidance," said Ben Albert, Chief Executive Officer of Health Catalyst. "More importantly, we recently closed the Vitalware divestiture and fully repaid our credit facility debt, which significantly improves our balance sheet and provides flexibility to make measured near-term bets in the work we believe in most. After eighteen years working with health systems, we know how to drive outcomes. We believe our intelligence products can help them improve outcomes faster. That's the company we're working to build.”

Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026

Key Financial Metrics

________________________
(1) These measures are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). See the accompanying "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below for more information about these financial measures, including the limitations of such measures, and for a reconciliation of each measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Financial Outlook

Health Catalyst provides forward-looking guidance on total revenue, a GAAP measure, and Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure.

For the third quarter of 2026, we expect:

• Total revenue of $55 million to $56 million, and

• Adjusted EBITDA of $0 to $0.5 million.
  
  

For the full year of 2026, we expect:

• Total revenue of $246 million to $249 million, and

• Adjusted EBITDA of $18 million to $18.5 million.
  
  

We have not provided forward-looking guidance for net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA, and therefore have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, because there are items that may impact net loss, including stock-based compensation, that are not within our control or cannot be reasonably forecasted.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we believe certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Cost of Revenue, Adjusted Operating Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per share, basic and diluted, and Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating our operating performance. For example, we exclude stock-based compensation expense because it is non-cash in nature and excluding this expense provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance and allows investors the ability to make more meaningful comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations, as a component in determining employee bonus compensation, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

Gross profit is a GAAP financial measure that is calculated as revenue less cost of revenue, including depreciation and amortization of capitalized software development costs and acquired technology. We calculate gross margin as gross profit divided by our revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as gross profit, adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) acquisition-related costs, net, and (iv) restructuring costs, as applicable. We define Adjusted Gross Margin as our Adjusted Gross Profit divided by our revenue. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin are useful to investors as they eliminate the impact of certain non-cash expenses and allow a direct comparison of these measures between periods without the impact of non-cash expenses and certain other non-recurring operating expenses.

We present both of these measures for our technology and professional services business. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as these metrics generally eliminate the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall profitability.

The following is a reconciliation of our Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin, in total and for technology and professional services, to gross profit and gross margin, the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

(1)  Restructuring costs include severance and other team member costs from workforce reductions and restructuring. For additional details, refer to Note 20 -Restructuring Costs in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

___________________
(1)  Acquisition-related costs, net include deferred retention expenses attributable to the Upfront, Intraprise, ARMUS and KPI Ninja acquisitions. For additional details refer to notes 1 and 3 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
(2)  Restructuring costs include severance and other team member costs from workforce reductions and restructuring. For additional details, refer to Note 20-Restructuring Costs in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net loss adjusted for (i) interest and other expense, net, (ii) income tax provision, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) stock-based compensation, (v) acquisition-related costs, net, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities for potential earn-out payments, (vi) restructuring costs, (vii) goodwill impairment, and (viii) non-recurring lease-related charges, as applicable. We view acquisition-related expenses when applicable, such as transaction costs (including third-party fees associated with due diligence, deferred retention expenses, post-acquisition restructuring costs incurred as part of business combinations) and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities that are directly related to business combinations, as costs that are unpredictable, dependent upon factors outside of our control, and are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. We believe that excluding restructuring costs, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and non-recurring lease-related charges, as applicable, allows for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period as these are separate from the core activities that arise in the ordinary course of our business and are not part of our ongoing operations. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and a comparison with our past financial performance, and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of our Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

(1)  Acquisition-related costs, net include third-party fees associated with due diligence, deferred retention expenses, post-acquisition restructuring costs incurred as part of business combinations, and changes in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities for potential earn-out payments. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the Upfront acquisition earnout decreased, resulting in a net reduction in expense. For additional details refer to Notes 1, 3, and 8 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
(2)  Restructuring costs include severance and other team member costs from workforce reductions, as well as legal and advisory fees related to significant board of director refreshment that are non-recurring and outside the ordinary course of our business. For additional details, refer to Notes 1 and 20 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
(3)  Goodwill impairment was recognized as a result of impairment indicators and quantitative tests indicating the fair values of the following were below the carrying values: (i) Technology reporting unit as of June 4, 2026, and (ii) the Technology reporting unit and the Professional Services reporting unit as of June 30, 2025. For additional details, refer to Note 5 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Cost of Revenue

Adjusted Cost of Revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as cost of revenue adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) acquisition-related costs, net, and (iv) restructuring costs, as applicable. We view these adjustments to allow for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period-to-period as these are separate from the core activities that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Adjusted Cost of Revenue is also computable by subtracting Adjusted Gross Profit from revenue. We believe Adjusted Cost of Revenue provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and a comparison with our past financial performance, and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted Cost of Revenue to our cost of revenue, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

(2)  Restructuring costs include severance and other team member costs from workforce reductions and restructuring. For additional details, refer to Note 20-Restructuring Costs in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Operating Expenses

Adjusted Operating Expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as total operating expenses adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) acquisition-related costs, net, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities for potential earn-out payments, (iv) goodwill impairment, and (v) restructuring costs, as applicable. We view these adjustments to allow for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period-to-period as these are separate from the core activities that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We believe Adjusted Operating Expenses provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and a comparison with our past financial performance, and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted Operating Expenses to our total operating expenses, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as well as a calculation of total operating expenses and Adjusted Operating Expenses as a percentage of total revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

(2)  Goodwill impairment was recognized as a result of impairment indicators and a quantitative tests indicating the fair values of the following were below the carrying values: (i) Technology reporting unit as of June 4, 2026, and (ii) the Technology reporting unit and the Professional Services reporting unit as of June 30, 2025. For additional details, refer to Note 5 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

For additional details, refer to Notes 1 and 20 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share

Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net loss adjusted for (i) stock-based compensation, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) restructuring costs, (iv) acquisition-related costs, net, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, (v) goodwill impairment, and (vi) non-cash interest expense related to debt facilities, as applicable. We believe Adjusted Net Income provides investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and comparison with our past financial performance and is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income to our net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

For additional details, refer to Note 5 in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA

Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as Vitalware net income adjusted for (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) and acquisition-related costs. We view acquisition-related expenses when applicable, including third-party fees associated with tail insurance policies that are directly related to business combinations, as costs that are not necessarily reflective of operational performance during a period. Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA, Vitalware net income and the reconciliation below are derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial information and related records and reflects certain assumptions and adjustments that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances and given the information available at this time. As a result, Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA, Vitalware net income and the reconciliation below does not necessarily reflect what Vitalware’s Adjusted EBITDA, net income, and related reconciliation would have been on a standalone basis and is not necessarily indicative of future results of operations.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with useful information on performance as evaluated by management, and is useful in evaluating Vitalware's operating performance compared to that of other business units or companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company and business unit to business unit for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of our Vitalware Adjusted EBITDA to Vitalware net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the six months ended June 30, 2026:
