Thank you, Yola. And thank you all for joining us for our 2019 full-year release of results for MDxHealth. With me today is Ron Kalfus, Chief Financial Officer. I am pleased to provide a positive update on our progress in Q4 as well as a view forward on our expectations for 2020. I will be turning the call over to Ron for a full review of our financial results. But I would like to initially comment on the progress we have made in 2019 to refocus, restructure and deliver sustainable results. Highlights of our approach are as follows: first, we have driven a culture of focus and execution into every operating area of the company; second, we have strengthened our management team within the operating areas that are key drivers of our results, in sales, revenue cycle management and financial operations; third, we have capitalized the company to provide the financial capacity to demonstrate our execution and commitment to delivering sustainable growth; lastly, we have positioned the company to be the leader in the detection of prostate cancer, with our menu of Select and Confirm tests with broad payer coverage on Confirm and confidence in our coverage visibility for Select in 2020. In addition, as part of management’s assessment of the business, which included analysis of historical performance, as well as future projections, we have made important updates to our estimates related to revenues, collections and receivables. As Ron will soon discuss our analysis has led to our decision to change our accounts receivable carry-time from 24 months to 12 months. The effect of which is a onetime reduction to our 2019 revenue from pro forma of $21.9 million to $11.8 million. It should be noted that this onetime adjustment better aligns us with industry standards related to carry time…

Thank you, Mike. I’ll begin with our change in collection estimates that have impacted our 2019 revenues. As part of our assessment of the business and taking into account data that we have gathered and analyzed throughout the year, we have significantly revised our collection estimates for aged accounts receivable having a negative impact of $10.1 million on 2019 revenues. We consider this significant revision to collection estimates as a onetime adjustment, primarily reflecting a reduction in the length of time the company carries accounts receivable from 24 months to 12 months. This onetime adjustment brings the company’s revenue recognition in line with its updated collection experience, reflects the company’s prioritization of accounts receivable aged 12 months or less. It’s important to note, that this change of estimate is an accounting measure in accordance with IFRS 16 and has no impact on our past or future units, cash or underlying reimbursement level. On to an overview of our results. Total revenue for 2019 was $11.8 million compared to total revenue of $28.4 million for 2018. As mentioned, revenues for 2019 were impacted by onetime adjustment of $10.1 million following a significant revision to collection estimates. Excluding this onetime adjustments, 2019 revenues on a pro-forma basis would have been $21.9 million, a reduction of 23% from last year, primarily due to the decline in units related to non-recurring volume on the first half of 2018. Revenue from ConfirmMDx represented over 90% of product revenue. Gross profit on products and services for 2019 was $0, principally due to the onetime adjustment. Excluding this onetime adjustment, gross profit on products and services on a pro-forma basis would have been $10.1 million, a decline of $6.6 million from 2018. This decline was primarily the result of the decline in revenues. Total operating expenses in…

Thanks, Ron. During my first 9 months with the company, I was often asked to provide guidance and a view forward of how our turnaround of the company would unfold. However, I feel compelled to make an informed assessment of the company and the requirements needed to drive future growth and value. We have now completed that initial assessment. And I am very confident in our path forward based on the following actions and associated projections for the business. My conclusions are the following. We have clearly built a company uniquely capable of being a leader in the detection and treatment of prostate cancer. We have a body of scientific evidence and proven clinical utility in the market. We have a base of customers that can and will drive sustainable adoption of our menu with our improved focus, data, analytics and sales talent. And we have a team that will serve as the foundation for growth and value creation for all of our stakeholders. This gives me the confidence to now provide visibility in our 2020 guidance and the key indicators of their growth. We are projecting unit growth of 20% to 25% for Confirm and 25% to 30% for Select. We are projecting 2020 revenue of $27 million to $30 million. We anticipate LCD final coverage decision for Select in Q2 of 2020. And we also anticipate that this will provide immediate lift in our Select revenue and catalyze coverage in private and commercial payors. In summary, I will commit to all of our stakeholders that we will be relentlessly focused on execution in the following key operating areas of the business: top-line unit and revenue growth, through strategic and performance-based focus of our sales team; continued focus on broad based coverage for both Confirm and Select with our current and prospective payor base; continued focus on our cash collections and building a reimbursement operation to drive P&L optimization; and continued discipline in our operating expense management to drive efficiency and appropriate capital allocation. I am very confident in our ability to execute on all of these goals, and believe we have the people in place to deliver on that promise to build value for all of our stakeholders, including patients, customers, employees and shareholders. Thank you for your interest in and support of MDxHealth. Now, I’ll turn call back over to Yola for questions.

Thank you. [Operator Instructions] Your first question comes from the line of Lenny Van Steenhuyse from KBC Securities. Please ask your question.

Hi, good morning and thanks for taking my question. Now in 2019, the focus was clearly on driving ConfirmMDx utilization from the existing client base, which starts to show nicely in the figures now, while on the other hand Select grew more organically. I was wondering if that will still be the game-plan for 2020 or if you do anticipate a pivot in your strategy throughout the coming year? And then, as a short follow-up question, could you remind us what the current size of the sales-force is exactly? Thank you.

Sure, Lenny. We have approximately 30 direct sales reps in the U.S., which we believe will hold constant. And to answer your first question, yeah, I communicated previously that the back-half of the year was really focused on, which was critical to the company, getting stability and growth back into our Confirm business as well as to defining very clearly our approach to driving leverage through our current customer base. We have incredible value in that base to drive both Confirm and Select. And as you know with Select, we’ve clearly also demonstrated market adoption, clinical utility and understanding of the value of that test. And as we move in to the period of time where we expect to get our LCD coverage, we now will be focusing throughout 2020, which is the basis for our guidance and driving both Select and Confirm into that pathway that I spoke to earlier. And we have good visibility to uptake of that, and would expect to see the Select growth probably take – become more obvious in the back half of the year after the coverage, and expect to see as evidenced with our guidance. This 22% growth we have in Q4 is clearly sustainable.

Okay. Thank you and just a small follow-up on that. The growth margin, of course, took a dent in 2019. I was wondering as volumes grow again in 2020, if you anticipate gross margin improvement throughout the year or on the other hand if you expect that faster SelectMDx growth might continue to put some pressure on these gross margins.

Yeah, Ron, if you want to add the comment, but I will just say that the 61% in Select growth in 2019 is very positive and reflecting the market opportunity and our ability to capitalize on that. It’s clearly straight cost through our P&L on a gross profit basis. And, yes, we would expect that to reverse as we get coverage in 2020, likely to become very clear on the back-half. The second driver of that, obviously, is our improved cash collections, as we feel very confident in our ability to drive. Ron, any additional comment there?

No, I think you hit it.

Okay. Thanks a lot for your comments.

Thank you, Lenny.

Thanks, Lenny.

Your next question comes from the line of Alex Cogut from Kempen. Please ask your question.

Hi, good morning and thanks for taking my questions, and congrats on the good Q4. I just have two. One on in terms of gross margin, what kind of improvement can we expect in full year 2020? I have a second question on SelectMDx, what kind of Medicare pricing or reimbursement are you assuming for your revenue guidance? Thanks.

So I guess the first part of the question is, we are not guiding the gross margin at this point. However, to my previous comments we have clear visibility and understanding that coverage for Select will drive – will be very accretive to our gross margin, because as I mentioned, all the volume right now is largely non-reimbursed. However, it’s a necessary aspect of our confidence in our LCD. In other words, we clearly need to deliver evidence of market understanding, clinical validity and adoption, which we’ve done, but at a really no return on the gross margin line. That will reverse and improve as we get our coverage. And so the second part of your question, we won’t be giving guidance on the pricing of the coverage, because that will be determined at issuance. However, I will just say that we’re confident that it will be accretive to our P&L, and allow us to drive growth and move the company toward profitability.

And if we think ahead in terms of SelectMDx adoption, when do you expect to be included in some of the most important guidelines like NCCN?

Well, I guess, the way I would answer that is we are confident that we have visibility and path toward inclusion in the NCCN guidelines. But at this point, I would not guide to that timing. But we would expect that to be a positive development in the coming quarters.

Got it. All right. Thank you.

Thank you, Alex.

We have no further questions. That does conclude our conference for today. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.

Thank you. And thank you all for your support and we look forward to reporting continued positive results going forward.
