Streamline Health(R) To Delay Third Quarter 2019 Earnings Announcement to Resolve Amortization Expenses From Certain Software Projects

  • Company Anticipates No Impact on FY 2019 Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA or Cash Flow
  • Third Quarter 2019 Earnings to Be Announced No Later Than January 9, 2020

ATLANTA, GA / ACCESSWIRE / December 9, 2019 / Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: STRM), provider of integrated solutions, technology-enabled services and analytics supporting revenue cycle optimization for healthcare enterprises, today announced it will delay its third quarter 2019 earnings release and investor conference call to allow the Company time to resolve and make appropriate adjustments to its accounting for amortization expenses related to certain software projects. The Company is analyzing the need to amend previously filed financial statements as part of its discovery and review process. The Company foresees no impact from this adjustment on its revenue, adjusted EBITDA or cash flow in fiscal year 2019 or prior periods.

In connection with the preparation of the Company's financial statements for the third quarter ended October 31, 2019, management discovered certain software projects underlying its "Capitalized Software Development" asset were not appropriately amortized and the corresponding expenses were not incorporated into the Company's consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2018 and for the first half of fiscal year 2019. Upon discovering the issue, management consulted with the Company's Audit Committee and notified its independent auditors and legal advisors.

"Our discovery that software projects were not appropriately amortized is unfortunate, but we do not expect that it will have a material impact on revenue, adjusted EBITDA or cash flow," stated Thomas J. Gibson, Chief Financial Officer, Streamline Health. "I want to assure our shareholders that we are working diligently to resolve this issue and believe we will do so in short order. The timing of the discovery prevented us from meeting our scheduled earnings release date and investor conference call for our third quarter performance results, which I'm pleased to report were strong across the board. In the third quarter ended October 31, 2019, we generated approximately $5.7 million in revenues producing improved adjusted EBITDA and $2.5 million in bookings."

"While the bookings in the third quarter did not include new eValuator contracts, we continue to add substantial, and incremental, opportunities to our sales pipeline, the majority of which represent a higher average annual revenue contribution than our current roster of eValuator clients."

The Company plans to file its Form 10-Q and report its earnings for its third quarter no later than January 9, 2020.
