Teladoc Health, Inc. (TDOC - Free Report) is scheduled to release fourth-quarter 2021 results on Feb 22, 2022, after the market closes.
Q4 Earnings & Revenue Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Teladoc Health’s fourth-quarter loss of 59 cents per share indicates a deterioration from the loss of 27 cents reported in the year-ago quarter. The consensus estimate for sales of $547 million suggests a 42.8% rise from the year-ago period’s reported figure of $383 million.
TDOC is expected to have gained from substantial revenue growth and an uptick in visits, partly offset by escalating costs in the to-be-reported quarter.
Revenues are likely to have gained from higher Access Fee revenues. The increase in access fee revenues might have been primarily led by the acquisitions of Livongo and InTouch Health, both of which generate a chunk of revenues from the subscription access fees and growth in direct-to-consumer mental health, which is sold on a subscription basis.
TDOC is also well-poised for growth owing to virtual care business. Given the current situation, demand for virtual care or telehealth care is here to stay. For the fourth quarter, management expected revenues of $536-$546 million (per the last earnings call). The same is likely to indicate an upside of 40-42% growth from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. Management also declared that it expects total paid membership in the band of 52.5-53.5 million. It also projects total visits of 3.9-4.1 million in the to-be-reported quarter.
Per management’s fourth-quarter guidance, adjusted EBITDA is anticipated in the range of $69-$74 million.
Total expenses are expected to have escalated in the quarter, primarily due to higher advertising and marketing, sales, technology and development, legal and regulatory, acquisition and integration-related costs as well as general and administrative expenses.
Earnings Surprise History
Teladoc Health’s bottom line beat estimates in two of the last four quarters (missing the mark on the remaining two occasions), the average surprise being 23.34%.
