The company said it took steps to contain and respond to the incident, and no other business lines were involved.
It is launching an investigation with help from third-party security experts and will begin notifying individuals if they were affected by the breach.
DocGo said the incident has not had a material impact on the company’s operations or financial security.
MobiHealthNews reached out DocGo representatives regarding the data breach, but the company has not yet responded to a request for comment.
A day after reporting the breach to the SEC, the company released its first-quarter financial results for 2024, citing a substantial increase in total revenue to $192.1 million, up from $113 million in the same period last year.
Revenue from the company’s mobile health services increased 97% year-over-year to $143.9 million in Q1 2024 compared to $72.9 million in Q2 2022.
The company reported $48.2 million in revenue for its transportation services compared to $5.6 million in the first quarter of 2023, a 330% increase.
Reported net income was $10.6 million for Q1 compared to a net loss of $3.9 million in Q1 of last year, and adjusted EBITDA was up 330% to $24.1 million compared to $5.6 million in 2023’s first quarter.
DocGo reported its total cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period equaled $58.9 million, compared with $127.5 million at the same time last year.
The company reiterated its 2024 revenue expectations to $280 to $300 million and adjusted its EBITDA to $65 to $75 million from its previous range of $80 to $85 million.
DocGo said it expects to generate $70 to $80 million in cash flow for the year, up from its previous forecast of $65 to $75 million.
“The reduction in our 2024 guidance is solely a result of the accelerated wind down of migrant-related programs. It is vital to note that our base business performance has been incredibly strong over the years. We expect to generate between $280 to $300 million in our base business in 2024,” Lee Bienstock, CEO of DocGo, said in a statement.
“If you compare this to 2019 – the year before we saw any migrant or COVID-related revenue – our base business revenue was $48 million. This impressive growth is indicative of our ability to execute and deliver transformative long-term performance.”
