Company Update
CPSI: CPSI Announces Acquisition of Healthland; 1+1 Is Likely Less Than 2; Hold
Thoughts. We believe today’s announcement that CPSI will acquire Healthland
illustrates just how difficult the spending environment in HCIT may be. In our view,
the acquisition represents a coming together of two distressed vendors likely facing
further business deterioration in FY16. By combining the two entities, CPSI can
mask the deteriorating fundamentals of the core software business as the
combined entity will generate roughly $300 million in revenues in FY16. We believe
investors should be skeptical of the transaction for several reasons. First, CPSI’s
management has little acquisition experience, which increases integration risks.
The primary cause of failed EHR vendor acquisitions throughout the history of
HCIT typically stems from the failure to integrate different platforms. CPSI will
support Healthland’s Centriq EHR product for a minimum of seven years, and
Healthland’s older solution Classic for at least two years. Lastly, we believe the
merger does little to address looming competition from athenahealth, and the deal
leads us to believe the macro environment for small, rural hospitals is likely worse
than many believe.
Who Wins from the CPSI / Healthland Merger? We believe the clear winner will
be athenahealth (ATHN, $166.88, Buy), as the merger of CPSI / Healthland
illustrates that the small hospital spending environment is likely tougher than most
realize. In our view, the CPSI / Healthland merger will likely be tumultuous given
CPSI lack of acquisition experience. We believe integration risk combined with a
continuing poor spending environment may help drive greater awareness of the
athenahealth value proposition as it enters the sub-50 bed hospital market full
force. In our view, the efficiency of athenahealth’s software enabled services
platform will be quite attractive to fiscally strapped and resource strapped small,
rural hospitals.
News. CPSI announced the acquisition of Healthland for $250 million (65% cash
and 35% CPSI common stock), and will be partially funded by $150 million in debt.
The combined entity is expected to generate roughly $300 million in FY16, with
$120 million revenue contribution from Healthland. Investors should note
management’s guidance implies the core CPSI business will generate $180 million
in FY16 revenues, a 2.2% decline based on our estimates. FactSet consensus
calls for $194.8 million in FY16 revenues, about 7.6% above management’s
implied guidance.
Valuation. We maintain our Hold rating. We will review our rating and model
accordingly as additional financial information on the transaction becomes
available.
