The Company reported record third quarter revenues of $12.4 million, a 22% increase in comparison to the prior year period, driven primarily by strong growth at its PharmcoRx pharmacies.

Our performance is a direct result of our commitment to improving outcomes for patients through medical adherence,” said Charles M. Fernandez, Chairman and CEO of Progressive Care Inc. “During a time when the broader pharmacy sector and the entire healthcare industry increasingly faces mounting pressures to improve care while reducing costs, our team continues to capitalize on the many growth opportunities in front of us including expanding our services for our existing patients and partnering with organizations that can provide us with the potential to reach large numbers of new customers.”

‍Summary Financial Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

Note on Financial Presentation

In connection with the change in control on July 1, 2023, the application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all assets and liabilities based on their fair value at the date of acquisition. As a result, our financial results of operations subsequent to the acquisition on July 1, 2023 have been segregated to indicate pre-acquisition and post-acquisition periods. The pre-acquisition period through June 30, 2023 is referred to as the “Predecessor”. The post-acquisition period, July 1, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the “Successor”.

‍

We recognized overall revenue from operations of approximately $12.4 million and $10.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an overall increase of approximately $2.2 million, or 22%. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in prescription revenue, net of PBM fees of approximately $1.1 million and an increase in 340B contract revenue of approximately $1.3 million, which was offset by a decrease in COVID-19 testing revenue of approximately $0.2 million, when compared to the prior year period.

Sequentially, overall revenue increased approximately $0.8 million, or 7%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The sequential increase in revenue quarter-over-quarter was attributable to our continued growth of 340B contract revenue, an increase of approximately 18%, and prescription revenue, net of PBM fees, an increase of approximately 4%, when compared to the second quarter of 2023. The number of prescriptions filled increased by approximately 3% during the third quarter of 2023, when compared to the second quarter of 2023.

We filled approximately 122,000 and 117,000 prescriptions during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of 4% year-over-year.

‍Gross profit margins increased from 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, to 31% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in gross profit margins during the third quarter of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily attributable to the increase in 340B contract revenue, which has higher margins than revenue generated from pharmacy operations.

Loss from operations decreased by approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, as a result of the increase in gross profit of approximately $1.6 million, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses of approximately $1.1 million.

‍Our operating expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million, or 27%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increases of approximately $0.6 million in the amortization (non-cash expense) of newly identifiable intangible assets because of the push-down accounting, approximately $0.3 million of increased franchise taxes, and approximately $0.2 million in salaries and wages, when compared to the prior year period.

Other loss decreased by approximately $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. Other loss of approximately $7.1 million in the prior year period was attributable to NextPlat transaction-related expenses and losses, including the changes in fair value of derivative liabilities, day one losses on issuance of units and debt modification, and abandoned offering costs, offset by gains on debt settlement and grant revenue.

We had a net loss of approximately $1.4 million and $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in net loss was attributable to the decrease in other loss due to the NextPlat transaction-related expenses and losses recognized in the prior year period.
