NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- HealthLynked Corp. (OTCQB: HLYK), a leading provider of healthcare networking and technological innovation, has reported its financial results for the three- and six-month periods ending June 30, 2024. Reflecting the company's ongoing efforts to streamline operations and transition its revenue streams from legacy clinical operations to app-based services, HealthLynked achieved significant cost reductions, leading to an 8% quarter-over-quarter improvement in its loss from operations.

Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue: The company reported revenue of $0.78 million in the second quarter of 2024, a 21% decrease from $1.00 million in the first quarter of 2024, and a 53% decline from $1.70 million in the second quarter of 2023. For the first half of 2024, revenue totaled $1.80 million, down 7% from $1.94 million in the trailing six-month period (October 2023 to March 2024) and 48% compared to $3.46 million in the first half of 2023. This decline is attributed to adjustments in clinical staffing within the Health Services Division, aligning clinical operating expenses with reduced physician availability.

  • Expense Reductions: Continuing its strategic focus on cost control, HealthLynked reduced practice operating expenses in its Health Services Division by 42% to $0.90 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $1.55 million in the second quarter of 2023. For the first half of 2024, these expenses were reduced by 37% to $1.97 million, down from $3.13 million in the first half of 2023. Overall, total operating expenses decreased by 25% in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023 and by 24% in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

  • Loss from Operations: The loss from operations was $1.08 million in Q2 2024, an 8% improvement over the $1.18 million loss in Q1 2024, though this represents a 35% increase compared to the $0.80 million loss in Q2 2023.

  • Net Income/Loss: The net loss was $1.54 million in Q2 2024, a 21% increase from a net loss of $1.39 million in Q1 2024, and a 54% increase from a $1.00 million net loss in Q2 2023. For the first half of 2024, the net loss was $2.93 million, compared to a net income of $0.45 million in the first half of 2023, which benefited from gains related to the sale of ACO Health Partners in 2023.

Strategic Developments:

HealthLynked has taken significant steps in 2024 to expand its service offerings and enhance value for its members. A major milestone was the signing of partnerships that now allow HealthLynked to offer nationwide telemedicine services. Previously available only in Florida, this expansion enables HealthLynked to provide convenient, remote healthcare services to a broader population across the United States, aligning with the company's mission to improve healthcare access and delivery.
