NEW YORK, May 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Marpai, Inc. (“Marpai” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: MRAI), a technology company transforming the $22 billion Third-Party Administrator (TPA) market supporting self-funded employer health plans, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

• Operating expenses (including cost of revenues) were approximately $18.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to approximately $16.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. This increase was caused primarily by the inclusion of the operating expenses of Maestro Health for in the entirety of the first quarter of 2023 and for only two months in the fourth quarter of 2022.
• Operating loss was approximately $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to an operating loss of approximately $8.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Other Highlights

• During the first quarter of 2023 we announced the addition of Gonen Antebi as our Chief Operating Officer. Most recently, Mr. Antebi served on Marpai’s Board of Directors and has also served as the Chief Executive Officer of Nuvem Health, where he created the teams, technology and processes that drove a small start-up into an industry leader. Mr. Antebi is leading all Company operations and is running Marpai’s third-party administrator (TPA) business, which has been built via the acquisitions of Marpai Administrators, LLC (formerly Continental Benefits, LLC) on April 1, 2021 and Maestro Health on November 1, 2022.
• On April 19, 2023, we announced the closing of a public offering of 7,400,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $1.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $7.4 million. After deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses net proceeds were approximately $6.4 million. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering for the repayment of debt relating to the Company’s acquisition of Maestro Health (in an amount equal to 35% of the net funds raised in the offering) and the remainder for general corporate purposes.

“With the addition of Gonen Antebi as our Chief Operating Officer we believe we now have the management talent that we need to execute the integration of our TPAs in the most productive way. This work is well on its way and I expect sequential quarterly improvements in the performance of the TPA business,” said Edmundo Gonzalez, Chief Executive Officer of Marpai. “At the same time, we are also investing in our Value Based Care Platform which I believe will contribute to long term shareholders value.”

Financial Guidance

The Company continues to expect 2023 annual revenues to be between $34 million and $35 million and expects second quarter 2023 revenues to be in a range of $9.5 million to $9.8 million.

The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect our expectations as of today’s date. Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed below, actual results may differ materially. We do not intend to update our financial outlook until our next quarterly results announcement.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect Marpai’s current expectations and speak only as of the date of this release.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Their Limitations

In addition to our results and measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP presented in this press release, we believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating and comparing our financial and operational performance over multiple periods, identifying trends affecting our business, formulating business plans and making strategic decisions.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our financial performance and is also used for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation to net loss, helps identify underlying trends in our business and helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, tax rates, or different forms of employee compensation. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to a key financial metric used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these potential limitations include:

• other companies, including companies in our industry which have similar business arrangements, may report Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures;
• although depreciation and amortization expenses are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditures for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
• Adjusted EBITDA also does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs or the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; and
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur.

Because of these and other limitations, you should consider our non-GAAP measures only as supplemental to other GAAP-based financial measures.
