Casey Hoyt, Viemed’s CEO, noted, “Viemed continues to earn a trusted place in the home with our high-touch, technology-enabled clinical approach to delivering complex respiratory care services. As a vital link between patients, providers and payers, we are demonstrating Viemed’s value in increasing patient satisfaction, improving compliance, and reducing rehospitalizations. This valuable position is helping us increase the patient population that we can serve for non-invasive ventilation, sleep, staffing and other complementary services.

“The combination of Viemed’s well-earned place in the home, the sales force restructuring initiatives we completed earlier this year, and the operational efficiencies facilitating greater patient compliance are fueling our strong organic revenue growth. The improved outlook for the balance of 2024 is predicated on continued benefits from these sales initiatives and operational efficiencies driving organic growth and greater penetration of our underserved markets through expanded service and home-based product offerings,” added Mr. Hoyt.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release refers to “Adjusted EBITDA”, which is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides helpful information with respect to the Company’s operating performance as viewed by management, including a view of the Company’s business that is not dependent on the impact of the Company’s capitalization structure and items that are not part of the Company’s day-to-day operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) to compare the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis, (ii) to calculate incentive compensation for the Company’s employees, (iii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of the Company’s internal annual operating budget, and (iv) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the Company’s operational strategies. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating the Company’s operating performance in the same manner as management. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of the Company’s financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue or net income, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters the Company considers not to be indicative of ongoing operations; and other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, certain items (mostly non-cash) are excluded from net income including depreciation and amortization of capitalized assets, net interest expense (income), stock based compensation, transaction costs, impairment of assets, and taxes.

The following table is a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, on a historical basis for the periods indicated:
