Our AI-driven Advanced Engagement System has transformed how we deliver care, enabling unprecedented operational efficiency while maintaining our focus on the human elements that drive meaningful outcomes. Our successful implementations at Intermountain Health and our Northeast Regional Plan, coupled with our optimism on converting prospects in our pipeline, provide a path to doubling our run-rate revenue in 2025.”

First Quarter 2025 and Recent Operating Highlights

  • Total enrolled members in our WholeHealth+ program numbered 1,578 at the end of Q1 2025, compared to 1,409 at the end of Q4 2024 and 1,521 at the end of Q1 2024. Total enrolled members in Ontrak Engage, one of the segmented solutions within WholeHealth+ which we began offering on an à la carte basis in Q2 2024, numbered 1,587 at the end of Q1 2025, compared to 716 at the end of Q4 2024.
  • Total callable outreach pool for WholeHealth+ was 7,319 at March 31, 2025 compared to 4,908 at December 31, 2024 and 5,057 at March 31, 2024. Total callable outreach pool for Ontrak Engage was 22,152 at March 31, 2025 compared to 20,648 at December 31, 2024.
  • On May 19, 2025, the Company and Acuitas Capital LLC (“Acuitas”) entered into an agreement relating to the Keep Well Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, Acuitas i) committed to purchase up to an additional $5.0 million in principal amount of Demand Notes (the “May 2025 Convertible Demand Notes”) and up to $5.0 million in principal amount of senior secured non-convertible promissory notes (the “Non-Convertible Demand Notes”) from the Company, and ii) agreed not to exercise its right to require that any amounts due under any Demand Note or Non-Convertible Demand Note be paid until the earlier of (a) September 1, 2026 and (b) 30 days following the date on which all $5.0 million in principal amount of Non-Convertible Demand Notes has been purchased.
  • In April 2025, the Company announced it has been re-certified by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), a recognized leader in healthcare quality assessment, evaluation, and certification, as a Credentials Verification Organization (CVO) for the element of license to practice. This recertification reaffirms Ontrak’s ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of quality and compliance across its suite of healthcare solutions, helping health plan customers effectively meet their accreditation goals. Ontrak’s renewed NCQA certification will extend through April 22, 2027.
  • In April 2025, the Company announced that a new affiliated practice association has secured the official Medicaid designation in two new states, which will enable Ontrak to operate as a direct value-based provider in addition to its historical operations as a vendor. As a value-based care provider, Ontrak can align the quality outcomes and HEDIS measures with medical cost savings and financial incentives that it shares with payor partners. In addition, classification as a value based provider gives payors greater flexibility to partner with Ontrak through a model that allows for fees to become part of the medical cost ratio rather than an administrative vendor fee. For Medicaid plans, it will allow for Ontrak to bill codes that are reimbursable at the State level. This shift is further enabling additional pipeline opportunities and provides payors optionality and flexibility in working with Ontrak.
  • In February 2025, the Company announced the signing of an extension of its strategic partnership with Sentara Health Plans for an additional three years through December 2027, following three successful expansions throughout 2024, including the expansion of WholeHealth+ to a larger Commercial membership, and introduction of Ontrak's Engage solution to Sentara Health Plans’ Commercial fully insured and certain self-funded members, as well as the Marketplace membership. These expansions have significantly broadened the reach and support for members, addressing their physical and behavioral health needs, and social determinants of health. With this expansion, Ontrak began offering its Quality solution to close HEDIS gaps in care as part of its WholeHealth+ and Engage solutions to enrolled Sentara Health Plans members.

Financial Outlook

The following outlook is based on information available as of the date of this press release and is subject to change in the future.

For the quarter ending June 30, 2025, the Company estimates revenue in the range of $2.2 million to $2.6 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company has provided in this press release and the quarterly conference call held on the date hereof certain non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net loss, and Non-GAAP net loss per common share, which are not U.S. GAAP financial measures. We believe that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that these financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period-to-period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business.

EBITDA consists of net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA consists of net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring, severance and related costs, and gain/loss on change in fair value of warrant liability. We believe that making such adjustments provides investors meaningful information to understand our results of operations and the ability to analyze our financial and business trends on a period-to-period basis.

Non-GAAP net loss consists of net loss adjusted for stock-based compensation, restructuring, severance and related costs, and gain/loss on change in fair value of warrant liability. Non-GAAP net loss per common share consists of loss per share adjusted for non-GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders. We believe that making such adjustments provides investors meaningful information to understand our results of operations and the ability to analyze our financial and business trends on a period-to-period basis.

We believe the above non-GAAP financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. However, our use of the term EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP net loss per common share may vary from that of others in our industry. None of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net loss or Non-GAAP net loss per common share should be considered as an alternative to net loss before taxes, net loss, net loss per common share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of performance.

See the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures table at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP financial measures to U.S. GAAP financial measures.
