Inspire Veterinary Partners Reports Full Year 2023 Financial Results

Full year 2023 revenue increases approximately 70% year-over-year to $16.7 million

Outlook for growth in the pet health sector remains attractive with active pipeline of acquisition opportunities

Implemented cost reduction initiatives to maximize operational efficiency to deliver profitable growth

Major reduction of consultant fees and other discretionary expenses post IPO

SG&A savings of at least $1 million expected to be fully embedded by end of 2024

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA / ACCESSWIRE / April 8, 2024 / Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:IVP) ("Inspire" or the "Company"), an owner and provider of pet health care services throughout the U.S., today reported financial results for its full year ended December 31, 2023.

"We are pleased to report strong year end 2023 top-line results as a newly public company with revenue growing 70 percent year-over-year, driven by acquisitions made during the past 12 months and organic revenue growth" said Kimball Carr, Chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer of Inspire. "We enter 2024 as a stronger company in a category that remains resilient and growing; and our experienced and dedicated team is executing to deliver purpose driven performance. Keeping our clients and pets at the center of everything we do is core to our mission of becoming a trusted destination for pet parents seeking high-quality and convenient pet health and wellness. Our acquisition of Valley Veterinary Service animal hospital, our first facility in the state of Pennsylvania, closed in the fourth quarter. The Valley team has done an incredible job integrating with our Inspire team while continuing to provide the highest level of care to its clients and pets. We're excited about our opportunities to fuel growth with our existing base of business and believe that the pipeline of attractive animal hospital acquisition candidates in both existing and new states remains active."

Carr, continued, "Over the past few years, we have invested in building a talented leadership and field team, adding technology that enhances the organizations integration and capabilities, and strengthening the infrastructure required to support our expanding family of animal hospitals as we continue to execute our growth strategy. Notably in 2023, we transitioned all hospitals to unified financial reporting systems aimed at enhancing speed of monthly reporting and maintaining our compliance with audit and regulatory requirements. We also launched enterprise-wide metric measurement systems which give us granular analysis of KPIs in each of our locations. This allows our field leader teams to coach each day, celebrating wins as our hospitals grow and the creation of detailed plans for the improvement of each lever which drives our business. Also completed in 2023, was the migration of every Inspire location to one practice management system which allows cloud-based oversight of patient records, client schedules, financial data and treatment plans for each pet under our care. Moving the Inspire portfolio to one ‘PIMs' provides a unified set of behaviors at hospital level, creating a consistency for coaching by our field leaders and allows our medical teams to provide case guidance whether on site or thousands of miles away. As we continue to advance in 2024, the work completed in 2023 means much of the organizational infrastructure is in place and should allow us to scale the business while adding only a modest amount of operating expense in the years ahead. On this front, 2023 was a standout year for bringing processes in house based on several changes implemented which were both cost-favorable to the company while bringing additional efficiency. We remain committed to redefining the industry through our differentiated offering and demonstrating the attractiveness of our operational strategy powered by a very passionate team in veterinary care. Looking ahead, we are focused on what is within our control and capitalizing on the secular trends of the resilient pet category to drive long-term, profitable growth. Toward that aim, we remain committed and focused on growth, business fundamentals and taking excellent care of team and pets as a means to bring value to our shareholders."

"In fiscal year 2023, we delivered solid top line results," said Inspire CFO Richard Frank. "While we are pleased with this growth, since our IPO, we have heightened our focus on execution, operational excellence, and improved efficiencies while we continue our strategy to grow revenues in existing animal hospitals and through acquisitions. We believe the implementation of numerous operational efficiency measures will improve organizational integration, accountability and efficiency, and drive meaningful margin improvement in both the near and the long term, which should set Inspire on a trajectory to achieve stronger, more predictable results and value creation for all stakeholders."

Recent Business Highlights Since IPO

  • Added three veteran leaders to further strengthen its medical, operational and financial expertise in support of its future growth and development: Dr. Chuck Dunn, as Director of Medical Operations; Kimberly King as Director of Field Operations; and Debbe Bastian, Finance Controller.
  • Completed the acquisition of Valley Veterinary Service, Inc. animal hospital located in Pennsylvania, Inspire's first entry in that state. Valley Veterinary Service's 2022 gross revenues were in excess of $1.7 million.
  • Opened newly located Family Pet Care animal hospital in Lakeside Town Center, Sugarland, Texas, designed to enhance customer service and improve staff support. Custom-built animal hospital, centered around the needs of IVP's care team and clients, represents the first of a new model of state-of-the-art companion animal hospitals Inspire expects to replicate as it expands existing and new clinics throughout the U.S.
  • Introduced new benefit for its employees with BetterHelp.com, a provider of professional, affordable, and personalized therapy in a convenient online format. Starting April 1, 2024, all Inspire team members will have access to convenient and professional therapy online.

Full Year 2023

Total revenue was $16.7 million for the twelve months of 2023, an increase of 70% compared to total revenue of $9.8 million in the prior year period, driven by an increase in sales in both Service and Product revenue which were significantly positively impacted by acquisitions. Service revenue for the twelve months of 2023 increased 69% to $11.9 million primarily driven by acquisitions of animal hospitals and clinics accumulated since the prior year period and increasing the prices of our services throughout our clinics and animal hospitals that resulted in organic growth in 9 of 14 animal hospitals and clinics increasing daily service revenue from the year prior, and the addition to the Valley Veterinary Service acquisition in November 2023. Product revenue of $4.8 million increased 71% compared to the prior year period driven primarily by acquisitions of animal hospitals and clinics in 2023, price increases, and the acquisition of Valley Veterinary Service.

General and administrative expenses were $9.5 million for the first twelve months of 2023 compared to $5.5 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the Company's initial public offering (IPO) and Nasdaq listing in August 2023, the additional cost of being a public company, and higher wages and third-party costs due to inflationary pressures.

Net loss was $14.8 million for the first twelve months of 2023 compared to a net loss of $4.9 million for the prior year period. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to the additional operating expenses, the non-cash beneficial conversion feature of $4.1 million on the convertible debenture and series A preferred stock recognized upon the completion of the IPO and the costs associated with the Company's acquisition of Valley Veterinary Service. Additionally, the Company incurred costs associated with its IPO and increased costs associated with being a public company.

Balance Sheet

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.2 million. Subsequent to the end of fiscal year 2023, the Company announced on February 13, 2024, it had completed a public offering of shares of Class A common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $4.0 million, prior to deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company.
