Veradigm Inc. (NASDAQ: MDRX), announced today an update on the status of its year-end audit procedures for 2022. As the Company disclosed on February 28, 2023, due to an expansion of year-end audit procedures, the Company filed with the SEC a Form 12b-25, extending the due date of its annual report on Form 10-K by 15 days, to allow for completion of those procedures.

The reason for the expanded audit procedures stems from detected internal control deficiencies related to revenue recognition, and this reasoning has not changed. While the nature of the internal control deficiencies has not changed, the volume of transaction testing and time periods to which they are being applied have increased to help ensure that any prior errors are fully quantified and corrected. As a result, the expanded audit procedures have not been completed, and as such, the Company has not yet filed its Form 10-K.

Because the Company has not yet filed its Form 10-K, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq indicating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the timely filing requirements for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC. The notice from Nasdaq was expected under these circumstances, and it has no immediate impact on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the notice, the Company has 60 days to file its Form 10-K or to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.

The Company previously estimated that the cumulative impact will be a reduction in revenue from continuing operations of approximately $20 million in the aggregate from what it otherwise reported since the 3rd quarter of 2021 and expected to report for the 4th quarter of 2022. As the expanded audit procedures are now being applied to earlier time periods, the Company anticipates that the cumulative impact will increase to approximately $40 million, but not exceed 5% of full year revenue from continuing operations for either 2021 or 2022. The Company has determined that the impact for 2021 will require a restatement of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and these restated amounts will accompany the 2022 Form 10-K filing.

The Company also believes that there will be an impact on the Company’s revenue from discontinued operations for the corresponding periods.

Finally, the Company is revising the following financial guidance for Fiscal 2023 issued on February 28, 2023 as follows:

• Revenue is expected between $615 million and $635 million, a decrease from the prior guidance of $625 million and $645 million

The Company is affirming the following financial guidance issued on February 28, 2023:

• Non-GAAP earnings per share is expected between $0.80 and $0.90

In providing financial guidance, the Company does not reconcile non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to the corresponding GAAP financial measure. The Company does not provide guidance for the various reconciling items since certain items that impact GAAP diluted earnings per share, any of which may be significant, are outside of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result, the Company is also not able to indicate the probable significance of such items.
