Certara Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
PRINCETON, N.J.—May 5, 2022-- Certara, Inc. (Nasdaq: CERT), a global leader in biosimulation, today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2022.
First Quarter Highlights:
| ● | Revenue was $81.6 million, compared to $66.7 million in the first quarter of 2021, representing growth of 22% over the first quarter of 2021. Excluding Pinnacle 21, revenue was $75.6 million, representing growth of 13% over the first quarter of 2021. |
| ● | Net income was $2.2 million, compared to net income of $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2021, representing growth of 110% over the first quarter of 2021. |
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA was $27.7 million, compared to $23.9 million in the first quarter of 2021, representing growth of 16% over the first quarter of 2021. |
“Certara delivered strong revenue growth in the first quarter, despite experiencing some COVID-related delays in activity,” said William F. Feehery, chief executive officer. “With compelling growth opportunities ahead, we continue to invest in our people, R&D and commercial team to drive innovation and impact. Our robust bookings growth demonstrates the ongoing adoption of our software and technology-driven services, which enable our customers to accelerate the development of crucial, new medicines for patients worldwide.”
First Quarter 2022 Results
“Certara’s solid first quarter results reflect continued strong demand for our technology-driven services and proprietary software. Our positive momentum positions us well to deliver on our 2022 outlook, and we have made investments to drive sustainable mid-teens revenue growth,” said Andrew Schemick, chief financial officer.
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $81.6 million, representing growth of 22% over the first quarter of 2021. Excluding $6.0 million revenue from Pinnacle 21, which was acquired in late 2021, the revenue increased $8.9 million, or 13%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to growth in our technology-driven services and software product offerings from strong renewal rates, client expansion, and new customers as well as business acquisitions.
Total cost of revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $32.8 million, increased $6.8 million from $26.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $4.5 increase in employee-related costs resulting from billable head count growth, $1.7 million increase in intangible assets amortization.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2022 were $42.6 million, increased $7.6 million from $35.1 million in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $6.0 million increase in employee related costs, a $1.5 million increase in stock-based compensation costs, a $0.9 million increase in professional costs, $0.7 million increase in amortization of intangible assets, $0.7 million increase in compliance implementation costs, partially offset by $1.0 million decrease in business acquisition costs, and a $1.0 million increase in capitalized research and development cost.
Net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $2.2 million, compared to a net income of $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2021. The $1.2 increase in net income was primarily due to a $14.8 million increase in total revenue and a $1.7 decrease in other expense, partially offset by a $6.8 million increase in cost of revenue, a $7.5 million increase in operating expenses, and $1.0 million increase in tax expense.
Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter 2022 was $0.01, as compared to $0.01 in the first quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2022 was $27.7 million compared to $23.9 million for the first quarter of 2021, representing 16% growth. See note (1) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $16.9 million compared to $14.4 million for the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the first quarter 2022 was $0.11 compared to $0.09 for the first quarter of 2021. See note (2) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share.

Factors that may materially affect our results and those risks listed in filings with the SEC.
A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains “non-GAAP measures” that are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the Company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which are not recognized terms under GAAP. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or GAAP diluted earnings per share or revenue as measures of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of its business. The presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.
You should refer to the footnotes below as well as the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release below for a further explanation of these measures and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures in specific periods to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP for those periods.
Management uses various financial metrics, including total revenue, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), and certain non-GAAP measures, including those discussed above, to measure and assess the performance of the Company’s
business, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to make certain compensation decisions, and to compare the Company’s performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. In addition, management believes these metrics provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s business, as they remove the effect of certain non-cash expenses and other items not indicative of its ongoing operating performance.
Management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings per share are helpful to investors, analysts, and other interested parties because they can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical periods. In addition, each of these measures are frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate and assess performance.
Please note that the Company has not reconciled the adjusted EBITDA or adjusted diluted earnings per share forward-looking guidance included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to costs related to acquisitions, financings, and employee stock compensation programs, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA represents net income excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. |
(2) | Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of equity-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition and integration expense, and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance as well as income tax provision adjustment for such charges. |
In evaluating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation and this presentation should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual items.
