Highlights from the first quarter of 2021 announcement include:
Quarter ended March 31, 2021:
•GAAP revenue of $215.1 million.
•Net loss attributable to common shareholders of Evolent Health, Inc. of $(9.8) million.
•Achieved Adjusted EBITDA of $14.9 million.
•Lives on Full Platform of approximately 3.4 million and New Century Health Technology & Services Suite of 8.2 million, for a total of 11.6 million lives managed.
Additional announcements:
•Evolent announces new partnership with a leading network of risk-based primary care clinics, which will leverage New Century Health’s specialty care management services in oncology and cardiology.
•Evolent adds a new large health plan partner, which will leverage the Evolent Health Services’ full clinical technology platform and health plan administrative services.
Seth Blackley, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Evolent Health commented, “Overall, we’re pleased that we exceeded our key financial objectives for the quarter, and we are off to a strong start to the year. We are on track towards our target of mid-teens organic top-line growth and expanded margins as we utilize our value-based care solutions to improve the cost and quality of health care.”
Mr. Blackley commented, “In terms of new business objectives, we continue to see strong momentum in our pipeline, and that our solutions are increasingly in demand in the market, enabling continued strong organic growth. Payers and risk-bearing providers continue to select Evolent based on our state-of-the-art capabilities and ability to improve savings and outcomes with high-cost, high-risk members and patients. Today, we are excited to announce two new partnerships. First, New Century Health has entered into a partnership with a leading network of risk-based primary care clinics. New Century Health will provide medical oncology, radiation oncology and cardiology services to two markets and we anticipate go-lives for both geographies later this year. Second, Evolent Health Services has entered into a long-term partnership with a large health plan. We will provide our full clinical and administrative solutions to this partner across multiple markets starting in early 2022. Overall, we are excited about the addition of these partners and about our growth outlook across the year.”
Mr. Blackley concluded, “In summary, we are proud that Evolent’s quality and cost improving solutions were deployed across more than 11.6 million lives during Q1 and we are excited to continue to grow that reach. We continue to make progress and remain focused on our strategic plan of strong organic growth, expanding margins and optimal capital allocation. The overall progress against these strategic initiatives, in addition to our commitments to our partners, has increased our impact on the health of the communities we serve and sets us up well for the year ahead.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present and discuss Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue, Adjusted Platform and Operations Services Revenue, Adjusted Cost of Revenue, Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses, Adjusted Total Operating Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders, which are all non-GAAP financial measures, as supplemental measures to help investors evaluate our fundamental operational performance.
Adjusted Cost of Revenue and Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses are defined as cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, adjusted to exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expenses, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets recorded as a result of a one-time ASC 606 transition adjustment, acquisition-related costs related to acquisitions and business combinations, securities offerings, discontinued operations and other one-time adjustments. Management uses Adjusted Cost of Revenue and Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses as supplemental performance measures, which are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our long term operational costs while removing the effect of costs that are not expected to reoccur frequently (e.g. acquisition-related costs) and non-cash (e.g. stock-based compensation expenses) in nature. Additionally, these supplemental performance measures facilitate understanding a breakdown of our Adjusted Total Operating Expenses. Adjustments for acquisition-related costs incurred generally represent professional service fees and direct expenses related to acquisitions. Because we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, we do not consider the amount of acquisition-related costs to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.
Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses is defined as depreciation and amortization expenses adjusted to exclude the impact of amortization expenses related to intangible assets acquired through asset acquisitions and business combinations. Management uses Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses as a supplemental performance measure because it reflects a complete view of the operational results. The measure is also useful to investors because it facilitates understanding a breakdown of our Adjusted Total Operating Expenses.
Adjusted Total Operating Expenses is defined as the sum of Adjusted Cost of Revenue, Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures. Adjusted Total Operating Expenses is further adjusted to exclude the impact
3
of (gain) loss on disposal of assets and items arising from acquisitions and business combinations, such as changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification assets.
Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is defined as Adjusted Revenue less Adjusted Total Operating Expenses, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures. Management uses Adjusted Total Operating Expenses and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) because the removal of acquisition costs, one-time or non-cash items (e.g. depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses) allows us to focus on operational performance, and believes these measures are useful to investors because they give investors insight into our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (net loss attributable to common shareholders of Evolent Health, Inc. before interest income, interest expense, (provision) benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses), adjusted to exclude equity method investment impairment, gain on the transfer of membership, loss on repayment of debt, gain (loss) from equity method investees, gain (loss) on disposal of assets and consolidation, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification asset, other income (expense), net, purchase accounting adjustments, repositioning cost, stock-based compensation expense, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets, shareholder advisory services, acquisition-related costs and discontinued operations.
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because the removal of acquisition-related costs, one-time or non-cash items (e.g. depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses) allows us to focus on operational performance. We believe that this measure is also useful to investors because it allows further insight into the period over period operational performance in a manner that is comparable to other organizations in our industry and in the market in general.
Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders is defined as earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders adjusted to exclude income (loss) from equity method investees, other income (expense), net, gain on transfer of membership, loss on repayment of debt, loss on disposal of assets, impairment of equity method investees, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification assets, purchase accounting adjustments, repositioning costs, stock-based compensation expenses, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets recorded as a result of a one-time ASC 606 transition adjustment, gain (loss) from discontinued operations, shareholder advisory services and acquisition-related costs.
Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders is defined as Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders divided by Weighted-Average Common Shares, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures.
Management uses Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders because excluding non-cash items (e.g. depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses) allows us to focus on operational performance. We believe that these measures are also useful to investors for the same reason.
These adjusted measures do not represent and should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measurements, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of these adjusted measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures is presented in the tables below. We believe these measures are useful across time in evaluating our fundamental core operating performance.
Lives on Platform
Lives on Full Platform are calculated by summing members on our value-based care and comprehensive health plan administrative platform, as well as members covered for oncology specialty care services and members covered for cardiology specialty care services. Lives on New Century Technology & Services Suite are calculated by summing members covered for oncology specialty care services and members covered for cardiology specialty care services for contracts under ASO arrangements. Members covered for more than one category are counted in each category. Management uses lives on Full Platform and lives on New Century Technology & Services Suite as supplemental performance measures because we believe that they provide insight into the unit economics of our services. We believe that these measures are also useful to investors because they allow further insight into the period over period operational performance.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE
Certain statements made in this report and in other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”). A forward-looking statement is a statement that is not a historical fact and, without limitation, includes any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain words like: “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “aim,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “shall,” “may,” “might” and other words or phrases with similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, trends in our businesses, prospective services, future performance or financial results and the closing of pending transactions and the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings. We claim the protection afforded by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by the PSLRA.
These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results contained in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to vary materially, some of which are described within the forward-looking statements, include, among others:

The risks included here are not exhaustive. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Our periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC include additional factors that could affect our businesses and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a rapidly changing and competitive environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors.
Further, it is not possible to assess the effect of all risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. In addition, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date of this release.
