Benefytt Technologies, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2020 Results

Revenue Beat Expectations

Net Loss Driven by Goodwill Impairment

Adjusted EBITDA Slightly Below Expectations

Reaffirms 2020 Full Year Revenue and Earnings Guidance

Tampa, FL—May 6, 2020 — Benefytt Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:BFYT), a health insurance technology company and leading distributor of Medicare-related health insurance plans, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. The Company will host a live conference call on Thursday, May 7, 2020, at 9:00 A.M. ET.

Commenting on the Company’s first quarter operating results, Gavin Southwell, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Compared to many industries, which are significantly impacted by the current environment, our market continues to grow. Our technology-driven model positions us for growth as we help consumers connect with Medicare and other health and life insurance products, something that is now more important than ever, in a safe and easy manner via eCommerce or on the telephone with a licensed agent.”

Mr. Southwell continued, “In addition to the Medicare growth potential we are also seeing evolving tailwinds in the IFP market. Building on our success in 2019, 2020 is a year in which we expect to scale the Medicare business. We made good progress on that in the first quarter and are in a strong position for the 2021 annual enrollment period later this year.”

As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors commenced in July 2019 a process for exploring, reviewing, and evaluating strategic alternatives focused on maximizing shareholder value. These alternatives could include, among other things, a sale of the Company or a portion thereof, a strategic business combination, changes in the Company’s operations or strategy, or continuing to execute on the Company’s current business plan. This review process is currently ongoing, and the Company is in discussions with interested parties, including both strategic and financial institutions⁽¹⁾.

2020 First Quarter Financial Discussion

First quarter revenues of $71.6 million decreased 18.0% compared to revenues of $87.3 million in the first quarter of 2019.

Revenue from our Medicare segment was $18.9 million. We did not have Medicare revenue in the first quarter of 2019. Revenue from our IFP segment was $52.7 million compared to $87.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. The year-over-year decline in IFP revenue was anticipated as we deemphasized IFP sales and shifted resources to our new Medicare segment.

Revenues in the quarter for Medicare and IFP were negatively impacted in the amount of $1.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively, by changes in estimated variable consideration (i.e. lifetime value or LTV) based on the Company’s quarterly reassessment process. Without this change in estimate, first quarter total revenues would have been $76.4 million, Medicare revenues would have been $20.8 million and IFP revenues would have been $55.6 million.

Third-party commission expense was $32.8 million (62.2% of IFP revenues) in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $60.7 million (69.5% of IFP revenues) in the same period in 2019. The decrease is attributable to the decline in revenues in our IFP segment.

Total selling, general & administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $27.9 million (39.0% of net revenues) in the first quarter, compared to $15.6 million (17.9% of net revenues) in the same period in 2019. The increase is attributable primarily to legal expenses and increased payroll from scaling our captive distribution.

Marketing and Advertising expense was $18.5 million in the first quarter, compared to $3.1 million in the same period in 2019. The increased expense is due to investments in Medicare consumer engagement.

Net loss was $49.8 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to net income of $2.2 million in the same period in 2019. First quarter loss includes a $41.1 million goodwill impairment driven by the deemphasis of our IFP business.

EBITDA was ($53.0) million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to $6.5 million in the same period in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA was $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $9.3 million in the same period in 2019. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and adjusting for items that are not part of regular operating activities, including stock-based compensation and related costs, transaction costs, tax receivable adjustments, indemnity and other legal costs, and severance, restructuring, fair value adjustment to contingent consideration, asset impairments and other charges.

Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter for Medicare and IFP were negatively impacted in the amount of $1.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively, by changes in estimated variable consideration based on the Company’s quarterly reassessment process. Without this change in estimate, the first quarter Adjusted EBITDA would have been $4.4 million.

GAAP diluted net loss per share was $3.68 in the first quarter of2020, compared to GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.11 in the same period in2019.

Adjusted net income per share was $0.01 in the first quarter of 2020, compared to adjusted net income per share of $0.43 in the same period in 2019.

Adjusted net income per share in the quarter was negatively impacted in the amount of $0.20 by changes in the estimated variable consideration based on the Company’s quarterly reassessment process. Without the change in estimate the first quarter adjusted net income per share would have been $0.21.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled$5.1 millionas ofMarch 31, 2020, an increase of $1.3 million from December 31, 2019. We ended the quarter with $194.4 million of debt outstanding including $50.0 million drawn against our $65.0 million revolving credit facility. Net cash used in operating activities for the first quarter 2020 was $11.2 million, due to higher advances of commissions in the IFP segment from strong sales in the quarter, increased legal expenses and marketing and advertising expense. The Company is currently expecting approximately $23 million of refunds from various federal, state and local taxing authorities (of which $11.2 million was expected to already have been received). As the timing of such receipts is difficult to predict because of the COVID-19 outbreak and the resulting stay at home orders issued by various states, the Company stated that it intends to draw the remaining $15 million of its available revolving line of credit in order to continue to execute on its business plans for 2020.

Maintaining 2020 Full Year Revenue and Earnings Guidance

The Company is providing guidance for the full year ending December 31, 2020 based on information available as of May 5, 2020. These expectations are forward-looking and the Company assumes no obligation to update these statements.

The following is guidance for the full year ending December 31, 2020.

	●	Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $290 million to $350 million. Revenue from the Medicare segment is expected to be in the range of $190 million to $210 million. Revenue from the IFP segment is expected to be in the range of $100 million to $140 million.

	●	Adjusted net income per share is expected to be in the range of $3.10 to $4.15.

	●	Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $65.0 million to $80.0 million.

	●	Profit from the Medicare⁽³⁾ segment is expected to be in the range of $70.0 million to $80.0 million. Profit from the IFP segment is expected to be in the range of $15.0 million to $20.0 million.

⁽¹⁾

The Company’s Board of Directors has not set a timetable for completing the strategic review nor has it made any decisions related to strategic alternatives at this time. There can be no assurance that the Board’s exploration of strategic alternatives, including the current ongoing discussions with potentially interested strategic and financial institutions, will result in changes in strategy or any transaction or, if a transaction is undertaken, as to its terms, structure or timing. The Company does not expect to make further public comment regarding these matters unless and until the Board has approved a specific transaction or alternative or otherwise concludes its review of strategic alternatives, or the Company otherwise deems disclosure of significant developments to be appropriate. In connection with the strategic review, BofA Securities is acting as financial advisor and Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP is acting as legal advisor to the Company.

	⁽²⁾	The net contract asset includes $42.8 million of advanced commissions that reduce the commissions payable balance but are required to be showed gross under GAAP.
	⁽³⁾	Segment profit is calculated as total revenue for the applicable segment less direct and allocated marketing and advertising, customer care and enrollment, technology and content and general and administrative operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, before Corporate expenses.
	⁽⁴⁾	Corporate consists of other indirect General and Administrative operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expense, which are managed in a corporate shared services environment and, since they are not the responsibility of segment operating management, are not allocated to the reportable segments.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the Company’s financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP, the Company presents certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, which are adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted net income per share. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are defined below, should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

The Company is presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing the Company’s operating results through the eyes of management and because the Company believes that these measures provide a useful tool for investors to use in assessing the Company’s operating performance against prior period operating results and against business objectives. The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes.

The accompanying tables provide more detail on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures described above and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. The Company has not reconciled adjusted EBITDA guidance or adjusted net income per share guidance to GAAP net income or GAAP net income per diluted share, respectively, because the Company does not provide guidance for the reconciling items between these measures and GAAP net income or GAAP net income per diluted share, respectively. As certain of the items that impact GAAP net income and/or GAAP net income per diluted share cannot be reasonably predicted at this time, the Company is unable to provide such guidance. Accordingly, a reconciliation to GAAP net income or GAAP net income per diluted share is not available without unreasonable effort.

⁽¹⁾

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We have included EBITDA in this report because it is a key measure used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short- and long-term operational plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business. However, EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net income or cash flows from operations, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently than we do. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

⁽²⁾	To calculate adjusted EBITDA, we calculate EBITDA, which is then further adjusted for items such as stock-based compensation and related costs, and items that are not generally a part of regular operating activities, including tax receivable adjustments, indemnity and other legal costs, and severance, restructuring, acquisition costs and asset impairments. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered as, an alternative to net income or cash flows from operations, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have presented adjusted EBITDA because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe that it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

⁽³⁾	To calculate adjusted net income, we calculate net income then add back amortization (but not depreciation), interest, tax expense, items such as stock-based compensation and related costs, and other items that are not generally a part of regular operating activities, including, tax receivable adjustments, indemnity and other legal costs, severance, restructuring, acquisition costs and asset impairments. From adjusted pre-tax net income, we apply a pro forma tax expense calculated at an assumed rate of 24%, which consists of the maximum federal corporate rate of 21%, with an assumed 3% state tax rate. We believe that when measuring Company and executive performance against the adjusted net income measure, applying a pro forma tax rate better reflects the performance of the Company without regard to the Company’s organizational tax structure. We have included adjusted net income in this report because it is a key performance measure used by our management to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends and because we believe it is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the Company. Other companies may calculate this measure differently than we do. Adjusted net income has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or substitution for earnings per share as reported under GAAP.

⁽⁴⁾	Adjusted net income per share is computed by dividing adjusted net income by the total number of weighted-average diluted Class A and weighted-average Class B shares of our common stock for each period. We have included adjusted net income per share in this report because it is a key measure used by our management to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends and because we believe it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Other companies may calculate this measure differently than we do. Adjusted net income per share has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for earnings per share as reported under GAAP.
