MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.—October 25, 2011—eHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ: EHTH), the leading online source of health insurance for individuals, families and small businesses, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

Gary Lauer, chief executive officer of eHealth stated, “Our third quarter financial results were in-line with our expectations and reflect our investment strategy in Medicare. We see a significant Medicare opportunity in front of us and are making the strategic investments necessary to make Medicare an important business over time. We’ve been adjusting to the individual business and market changes resulting from the Affordable Care Act, and we are pleased with our overall membership growth and continued cash generation.”

Third Quarter Results

Revenue—Revenue for the third quarter of 2011 totaled $34.8 million, a 7% decrease compared to revenue of $37.5 million for the third quarter of 2010.

Submitted Applications—Submitted applications for individual and family products decreased 20% in the third quarter of 2011 to 114,800 applications, compared to 143,200 applications in the third quarter of 2010.

Membership—Estimated membership at September 30, 2011 totaled 810,400 members, a 4% increase over estimated membership of 778,800 at September 30, 2010.

Operating Income—Operating income for the third quarter of 2011 was $43,000, compared to operating income of $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2010. Operating margins were breakeven and 13% in the third quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating income for the third quarter of 2011 reflected eHealth’s strategic investment in the Medicare business. Third quarter Medicare-related operating expenses grew by approximately $2.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2011 and by approximately $4 million compared to the third quarter of 2010. Stuart Huizinga, chief financial officer of eHealth, said, “In the third quarter of 2011 our increased investment in Medicare aligned with seasonally low Medicare revenues outside of the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period. In the fourth quarter of 2011 we expect to generate sequential and year-over-year growth in Medicare revenues, which will allow us to better absorb the increased level of operating expenses and to increase operating income.”

Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter of 2011 was $2.3 million, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP operating margins were 7% and 18% in the third


quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively. Non-GAAP operating income and margins in the third quarter of 2011 exclude $1.8 million of stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense associated with the acquisition of PlanPrescriber, Inc. Non-GAAP operating income and margins in the third quarter of 2010 exclude $1.6 million of stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense associated with the acquisition of PlanPrescriber, Inc.

EBITDA—EBITDA for the third quarter of 2011 was $2.8 million, a 62% decrease compared to EBITDA of $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2010.

Pre-tax Income—Pre-tax income for the third quarter of 2011 was $22,000, compared to pre-tax income of $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2010.

Net Income/Loss—Net loss for the third quarter of 2011 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2011 was $1.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $3.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share in the third quarter of 2011 exclude $1.8 million of stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense associated with the acquisition of PlanPrescriber, Inc., less $0.8 million for related income tax benefit. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share in the third quarter of 2010 exclude $1.6 million of stock-based compensation expense and $0.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense associated with the acquisition of PlanPrescriber, Inc., less $0.8 million for related income tax benefit.

Stuart Huizinga, chief financial officer of eHealth stated, “Our tax provision of $271,000 for the quarter significantly exceeded our pre-tax GAAP net income of $22,000. This was driven mainly by an increase in our estimated effective tax rate for 2011. Given that in the first half of the year we booked tax expense using the lower estimate, we recorded a one-time tax item this quarter to catch us up to the new estimated rate year-to-date. The main reason for the increase in our estimated 2011 tax rate relates to our decision to increase certain non-deductible operating expenses that we expect to incur this year including our costs related to government affairs. The one-time tax expenses had a one cent impact on earnings per share.”

Cash Flow and Cash Balance—Cash flow from operations for the third quarter of 2011 was $5.4 million, a 4% decrease compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2010.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2011 totaled $126.5 million, compared to $135.9 million as of June 30, 2011. The change in cash and cash equivalents reflects $14.2 million used to repurchase 1.1 million shares of our common stock related to our on-going stock repurchase program which went into effect during the third quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). To supplement eHealth’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, eHealth presents investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating income; non-GAAP operating margins; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”); non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share.

 

   

Non-GAAP operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011 consists of GAAP operating income excluding the following items:

 

   

the effects of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and

 

   

acquired intangible asset amortization expense.

 

   

Non-GAAP operating margins are calculated by dividing non-GAAP operating income by GAAP total revenue.

 

   

EBITDA is calculated by adding stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, including the amortization of acquired intangible assets, interest and other (income) expense, net and provision for income taxes to GAAP net income (loss).

 

   

Non-GAAP net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2011 consists of GAAP net income (loss) excluding the following items:

 

   

stock-based compensation expense recorded during the quarter,

 

   

acquired intangible asset amortization expense and

 

   

the related income tax benefit of these excluded items.

 

   

Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average diluted shares outstanding.


eHealth believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with the Company’s past financial reports. Management also believes that the exclusion of the items described above provides an additional measure of the Company’s operating results and facilitates comparisons of the Company’s core operating performance against prior periods and business model objectives. This information is provided to investors in order to facilitate additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations. Externally, the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in their assessment of the Company’s operating performance.

Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margins, EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the revenue and costs associated with the operations of the Company’s business and do not reflect income tax as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of eHealth’s results as reported under GAAP. The Company expects to continue to incur the stock-based compensation costs and purchased intangible asset amortization costs described above, and exclusion of these costs, and their related income tax benefits, from non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual or infrequent. The Company compensates for these limitations by prominently disclosing GAAP operating income, GAAP operating margins, GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share and providing investors with reconciliations from the Company’s GAAP operating results to the non-GAAP financial measures for the relevant periods.

The accompanying tables provide more details 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.

Notes:

(1) Net cash provided by operating activities for the period from the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
(2) IFP applications submitted on eHealth’s website during the period. Applications are counted as submitted when the applicant completes the application, provides a method for payment and clicks the submit button on our website and submits the application to us. The applicant generally has additional actions to take before the application will be reviewed by the insurance carrier, such as providing additional information and providing an electronic signature. In addition, an applicant may submit more than one application. We include applications for IFP products for which we receive commissions as well as other forms of payment. We define our “IFP” offerings as major medical individual and family health insurance plans, which does not include small business, short-term major medical, stand-alone dental, life, student or Medicare-related health insurance plans.
(3) New IFP members reported to eHealth as approved during the period. Some members that are approved by a carrier do not accept the approval and therefore do not become paying members.
(4) New members for all products reported to eHealth as approved during the period. Some members that are approved by a carrier do not accept the approval and therefore do not become paying members.
(5) Commission revenue (from all sources) recognized during the period from the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).
(6) Calculated as commission revenue recognized during the period (see note (5) above) divided by average estimated membership for the period (calculated as beginning and ending estimated membership for all products for the period, divided by two). See our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 - Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Summary of Selected Metrics for additional information regarding our calculation of estimated membership.
(7) Total revenue (from all sources) recognized during the period from the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).
(8)

Calculated as total revenue recognized during the period (see note (7) above) divided by average estimated membership for the period (calculated as beginning and ending estimated membership for all products for the
