(NYSE: GWAY), which delivers innovative software and business services solutions for ambulatory care providers through its PrimeSUITE® platform, today announced record financial results for the three and 12 months ended June 30, 2012.

Highlights

• Gross profit increased by 27% with gross margin improving by 145 basis points for the fourth quarter from the prior-year period.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16% for the 2012 fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is described and reconciled to net income below and is not a substitute for the GAAP equivalent.

Operating Results

Greenway generated record quarterly revenue of $36.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, up 24% from $29.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. For the 12 months ended June 30, 2012, total revenue grew by 38% to an annual record $124.0 million, from $89.8 million for the year-ago period.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $21.8 million, which compares with $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a 27% increase. Gross profit margin of 60% for the 2012 fourth quarter was 145 basis points higher than the previous year, largely as a result of revenue growth as well as margin improvement efforts in training and consulting services, support services and electronic data interchange and business services, offset by a decline in system sales margins for the period. This improvement in gross margin included the absorption of increased amortization expense of approximately $1 million related to acquired technology and software development costs in the fourth quarter of 2012. Amortization commences as various projects become available for market. For the 12 months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit was $68.1 million, compared with $49.4 million for the prior-year period. Gross margin for fiscal year 2012 was essentially unchanged, at 55%, from the prior-year period. Gross profit for fiscal 2012 included the absorption of increased amortization expense of approximately $2.5 million.

Operating income was $3.5 million and $4.9 million for the three and 12 months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. This compares to operating income of $4.4 million and $3.8 million for the comparable periods of the prior year.

Greenway earned net income of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, or seven cents per diluted share for the fiscal 2012 fourth quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, Greenway had net income of $2.6 million and a loss available to common shareholders of ($12.6 million), or ($1.09) per share. The Company’s results for the 2011 fourth quarter and fiscal year include dividends and accretion related to preferred stock that was converted to common stock in February 2012.

Net income for the 12 months ended June 30, 2012, was $2.9 million, or 11 cents per diluted share. This compares with net income of $33.0 million, which includes a net tax benefit of $29.2 million for fiscal 2011. The Company reported a loss available to common shareholders of ($22.0 million), or ($1.90) per share for fiscal 2011 due to preferred stock accretion and dividends.

As of June 30, 2012, the Company had $34.9 million in cash and short-term investments and no outstanding indebtedness.

Non-GAAP Measures

Greenway’s non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs and stock-based compensation, was $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a 17% increase from $5.0 million for the prior-year period. For fiscal 2012, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased by 89% to $12.1 million, from $6.4 million for fiscal 2011.

Adjusted, or non-GAAP net income for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was $3.0 million, or 10 cents per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2012 was $5.3 million or 26 cents per diluted share. Greenway earned 21 cents per diluted share, non GAAP, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2011 was $33.9 million, including a $29.2 million net income tax benefit, or $2.71 per diluted share. The effects of dividends and accretion related to the converted preferred stock have been excluded from all periods presented for non-GAAP measures.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Comparable GAAP Measures
(Unaudited, in thousands, except share amounts)

The following is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in describing its financial performance in accordance with U.S. “generally accepted accounting principles” (GAAP). An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”. While management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the Company’s operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not a substitute for, financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of the operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA
(Unaudited, in thousands)

Set forth below is a presentation of the Company’s “non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA” and the “non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin” which is non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue:

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income
(Unaudited, in thousands except share and per share amounts)

Set forth below is a reconciliation of the Company’s “Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income” and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share”:

¹ The presentation of non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP net income per share excludes, for all periods, the effect of dividends and accretion related to preferred stock converted to common in February 2012. Accordingly, for the affected periods GAAP weighted average shares outstanding and GAAP net income per diluted share differ from that presented in the accompanying unaudited statement of operations. Net income per share for 2011’s fourth quarter and year end is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding that include options and warrants totaling 1.3 million and 918,000 shares, respectively, which would otherwise have been anti-dilutive and excluded. For fiscal 2012, GAAP net income per share is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding excluding the dilutive effect of preferred stock assumed to have been converted at the beginning of the year totaling 5.2 million shares.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s management believes that investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items as a supplement to financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that may vary in frequency and impact on continuing operations. Management also presents results of operations before such items to evaluate operating performance, compare performance against past periods and as a basis for strategic planning. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate operating results and trends by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might complicate comparisons with prior periods, obscure current trends or reduce the ability to make useful forecasts. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide additional means of evaluating performance, period-over-period. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this information useful in analyzing the Company’s financial and operational performance and comparing such performance to peers and competitors.

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs and stock-based compensation. It is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s performance. However, 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 results as reported under GAAP.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income before stock-based compensation, acquisition-related transaction costs and amortization of purchased intangibles and any tax impact related to these items.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share is defined as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Management considers all of these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful indicators of the Company’s performance and a measure of historical trends.

The following items are excluded from non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income and related Per Diluted Share financial measures referenced above, and the reasons therefore are:

• Stock-based compensation – Excluded because these are non-cash expenses that management does not consider useful in assessing ongoing operating results or performance of the business, and also because the amount of the expense is not totally within the Company’s control since it is based on factors such as stock price, volatility and interest rates which may be unrelated to the Company’s performance during the period the expense is incurred.
• Amortization of purchased intangibles – Purchased intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful life and generally cannot be influenced after the acquisition. Accordingly, this item is not considered by management in making operating decisions. Thus, including such charges does not accurately reflect the performance for the period in which such charge is incurred.
• Acquisition-related transaction costs – Transaction costs associated with acquisitions are non-recurring and related specifically to a subject acquisition. Accordingly, management does not believe that they reflect the underlying performance of ongoing business operations for the period incurred.
