DarioHealth (NASDAQDRIO), a leader in the global digital health market, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2024. Among the highlights, the company reported first quarter revenue of $5.8 million, reflecting a 59% increase over the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily resulting from an increase in B2B2C revenues. “In the first quarter, our revenue increased by 59% over the fourth quarter 2023 reflecting organic growth with our legacy business-to-business-to-consumer (‘B2B2C’) channel, as well as revenue contribution from our recent acquisition of Twill Inc. B2B2C revenue as a portion of total revenue grew to 60% in Q1 2024 versus 31% in 4Q 2023. The legacy Dario B2B2C channel revenue grew 38% sequentially over the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to the launch of the Aetna platform, expansions of existing customer contracts and new customer launches. We expect the growth to continue into the second quarter as we see revenue contribution from customers that launched mid-first quarter and in the second quarter, and as we see a full quarter of revenues from Twill,” said Dario CEO Erez Raphael. “We believe we have reached a major turning point in the scaling of our business and the acceleration of our path to profitability. With our new customer launches in the B2B2C channel, coupled with high margin revenue scale, operational efficiencies and product expansion through the Twill acquisition, we believe that we can achieve significant revenue growth in our core business on a combined basis in 2024, with even greater growth over the longer term, including cross sell opportunities that we are currently executing on.”

DarioHealth (NASDAQDRIO), a leader in the global digital health market, has new research being published in the leading peer-reviewed journal for digital health and medicine, the “Journal of Internet Medicine.” The research is based on a quasi-randomized study that demonstrates the value of Dario’s integrated approach in providing a solution for members to manage diabetes, prediabetes, blood pressure, weight and the use of a GLP-1. According to the announcement, the study indicates a clinically significant reduction in blood glucose levels for members using Dario to manage weight alongside diabetes. This new study involved data from 1,932 Dario members over the course of a year, with 50% of the participants who regularly used Dario’s weight-monitoring feature being propensity score matched with 50% of participants who did not use the weight-monitoring feature. DRIO conducted the research with Integrative Pain Laboratory, the School of Public Health at the University of Haifa. During a six-month period, members using a digital weight-monitoring feature experienced a significant reduction in blood glucose levels and BMI, with 85% of individuals in the weight-monitoring group achieving a reduction in blood glucose levels below the estimated A1c threshold of 9.0 in their last month of measurement compared to 76% of the individuals in the group using Dario to manage diabetes alone. “Type 2 diabetes and obesity share the same web of underlying health behaviors, and yet we often ask people to engage in multiple solutions to address these conditions separately,” said DarioHealth chief medical officer Omar Manejwala, MD, in the press release. “It adds undue burden to the behavior change process and can impede engagement on one or both conditions, which ultimately hurts outcomes. The results of this study show a clear benefit to having a single approach, and we are excited to continue adding evidence of the need for more integrated chronic condition solutions like Dario.”

DarioHealth (NASDAQDRIO), a leader in the global digital health market, has announced that two employers, a national supply chain company and a regional education organization, have selected its integrated chronic condition management solutions. According to the announcement, beginning in the second quarter of 2024, Dario will provide solutions to improve outcomes for employees with cardiometabolic health conditions, including diabetes, pre-diabetes, hypertension, and weight management needs, including support for individuals taking a GLP-1 medication. “The trend towards integrated solutions continues to grow as employers look to reduce point solutions in favor of a single integrated solution that has a better member experience and has a lower cost of ownership when compared to managing multiple point solutions. Our new accounts are excited about Dario’s proven ability to effectively engage people across multiple related conditions, and we look forward to delivering the market-leading results our clients deserve,” said Rick Anderson, president of Dario.

DarioHealth (NASDAQDRIO), a leader in the global digital health market, has published two studies in the leading peer-reviewed journal for digital health and medicine, the “Journal of Internet Medicine. ” The studies include a randomized controlled trial (“RCT”) demonstrating the impact of a digital stress reduction program for teens. According to the announcement, the first study used an RCT, which is “the gold standard in research,” to demonstrate the impacts of a self-guided Digital Mental Health Intervention (“DMHI”) for teens. The study showed that teens engaged in the DMHI saw significant improvements in perceived stress, brooding and loneliness compared to a group of teens waiting for access. The second study examined the relationship between the use of relaxation tools such as breathing exercises and cognitive behavioral therapy (“CBT”)-based videos in a digital behavioral health solution and the level of stress reduction. “Digital solutions for mental health offer tremendous value as a convenient means of accessing proven treatment and support, especially for those at higher risk of experiencing a mental health need, such as people living with chronic conditions or teenagers,” said DarioHealth vice president of clinical and scientific affairs Yifat Hershcovitz, PhD, in the press release. “Better understanding of how different components impact outcomes is critical to helping further personalize mental health experiences in meaningful ways, and we are thrilled to see these research efforts published.”

DarioHealth (NASDAQDRIO), a leader in the global digital health market, is reporting on its fourth-quarter and full-year 2023 financial results; the company also releases a corporate and commercial update. Highlights of the report include $20.4 million full-year 2023 revenue, down from 2022 revenue of $7.3 due to a managed decrease in B2C and strategic milestone revenue as the core business-to-business-to-consumer (“B2B2C”) revenue increased; B2B2C, employers and health plans recurring revenues increased 39% year over year; commercial revenues brought in the majority of the revenue with B2B2C growing from 13% to 25% of total revenue from 2022 to 2023; GAAP operating expenses decreased by 11.2% sequentially from the third quarter of 2023 with Non-GAAP operating expenses down 9.4% sequentially from the third quarter; and total pro forma nonaudited revenues of approximately $38 million for the integrated entity in 2023. In addition, the report noted that Dario had signed multiple customers onto the Aetna platform, which launched in Q1 2024; the company also reported significant interest and multiple employer adoption of its GLP-1 Behavioral Change Program. “[Last year] was a very significant year for Dario,” said DarioHealth CEO Erez Raphael in the press release. “Our financial profile continued to improve as a result of our pivot to a business-to-business-to-consumer business model with growing B2B2C revenue and decreasing operating costs. . . . Last month we announced the transformational acquisition of Twill Inc., accompanied by a $22.4 million equity financing. We believe this acquisition propels Dario forward, creating immediate scale with three of the top eight national health plans, some of the largest technology companies and several major pharmaceutical companies as customers. Following the recent acquisition of Twill, we have commenced selling our new combined offerings and have begun the integration process and expect to report outcomes in the coming quarters. We believe that this acquisition completely transforms Dario and firmly establishes it as one of the leaders in the space, that understands how to leverage organic and inorganic growth to improve financial metrics and manage responsible growth. We ended the year with a strong cash position of $37 million, not including the $22.4 million financing in the first quarter of 2024, which we believe puts us in a great position to execute our strategy.”
