Spok Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

Company makes progress on recently announced strategic business plan

Announces conclusion of thorough strategic alternatives review process; Spok’s Board remains open to all pathways to maximize shareholder value

Spok Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SPOK), a global leader in healthcare communications, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.3125 per share, payable on June 24, 2022, to stockholders of record on May 25, 2022.

2022 First Quarter Highlights:

  • Announced new strategic business plan prioritizing maximizing free cash flow and returning capital to shareholders
  • Reduced size of Board of Directors to better align the Board's size and composition with the Company's recently announced business strategy
  • Capital returned to stockholders in the first quarter of 2022 totaled $6.5 million in the form of the Company's regular quarterly dividend
  • Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments balance of $46.3 million at March 31, 2022, and no debt
  • University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) selected Spok Care Connect® to replace URMC's existing operator console and to support its clinical communication needs at its flagship Strong Memorial Hospital

"We have made great progress on our recently announced strategic business plan while also continuing to provide critical communications services to our healthcare customers," said Vincent D. Kelly, president and chief executive officer of Spok Holdings, Inc. "We are on target with our previously announced financial objectives, and our focus remains on creating significant value for our shareholders by maximizing revenue and cash flow generation from our established communication solutions. We continue to believe that we are on the best path forward, and we are optimistic about our prospects for the remainder of 2022 and beyond."

Strategic Review Update:

Spok has concluded the strategic alternatives review process it publicly commenced on September 3, 2021. At this time, Spok has no actionable options for a sale of the Company and the Board has determined it is in the best interests of all shareholders for Spok to focus on executing its strategic plan as a standalone company.

Since initiating the strategic review, the Board, along with its financial and legal advisors, conducted an exceptionally thorough process and reached out to and engaged with a wide range of strategic and financial parties.

Spok’s Board is fully committed to maximizing value for all shareholders.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted operating expenses excludes depreciation, amortization and accretion, goodwill and restructuring costs, and includes capitalized software development costs. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income/(loss) before interest income/expense, income tax expense/benefit, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense restructuring costs, and stock-based compensation expense and includes capitalized software development costs.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Spok's financial condition and results of operations. We use these non-GAAP measures for financial, operational, and budgetary decision-making purposes, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, and to generate future operating plans. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures permit us to more thoroughly analyze key financial metrics used to make operational decisions and allow us to assess our core operating results. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other software companies who present similar non-GAAP financial measures. We adjust for certain items because we do not regard these costs as reflective of normal costs related to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course. In general, these items possess one or more of the following characteristics: non-cash expenses, factors outside of our control, items that are non-operational in nature, and unusual items not expected to occur in the normal course of business.

We do not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act

Statements contained herein or in prior press releases which are not historical fact, such as statements regarding Spok’s future operating and financial performance, are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause Spok’s actual results to be materially different from the future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expectations include, but are not limited to, risks related to Spok's new strategic business plan, including its ability to maximize revenue and cash generation from its established businesses and return capital to shareholders, risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our business and the economy, other economic conditions such as recessionary economic cycles, higher interest rates, inflation and higher levels of unemployment, declining demand for paging products and services, continued demand for our software products and services, our dependence on the U.S. healthcare industry, our ability to develop additional software solutions for our customers and manage our development as a global organization, the ability to manage operating expenses, particularly third-party consulting services and research and development costs, future capital needs, competitive pricing pressures, competition from traditional paging services, other wireless communications services and other software providers, many of which are substantially larger and have much greater financial and human capital resources, changes in customer purchasing priorities or capital expenditures, government regulation of our products and services and the healthcare and health insurance industries, reliance upon third-party providers for certain equipment and services, unauthorized breaches or failures in cybersecurity measures adopted by us and/or included in our products and services, the effects of changes in accounting policies or practices, our ability to realize the benefits associated with our deferred tax assets, future impairments of our long-lived assets, amortizable intangible assets and goodwill, the effects of our limited-duration shareholder rights plan, and the outcome of Spok's strategic alternatives review, as well as other risks described from time to time in our periodic reports and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although Spok believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be attained. Spok disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
