eHealth, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2010 Results
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, Oct 26, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- eHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ: EHTH), the leading online source of health insurance for individuals and families, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010.
Gary Lauer, chief executive officer of eHealth, stated, "We are pleased with our third quarter performance. Submitted individual and family application volume growth exceeded 9% year-over-year reflecting growth across all member acquisition channels. We also continued to make progress in our emerging businesses -- Medicare and government systems -- including an important launch of the enhanced Health Insurance Web Portal for the Department of Health and Human Services. We believe that the changing landscape of the health insurance industry makes our technology and platform more relevant and needed than ever."
Third Quarter Results
Revenue -- Revenue totaled $37.5 million for the third quarter of 2010, a 7% increase compared to revenue of $35.1 million for the third quarter of 2009.
Submitted Applications -- Submitted applications for individual and family products increased 9% in the third quarter of 2010 to 143,200 applications, compared to 131,200 applications in the third quarter of 2009.
Membership -- Estimated membership at September 30, 2010 totaled 778,800 members, a 7% increase over estimated membership of 726,600 at September 30, 2009.
Operating Income -- Operating income decreased 25% to $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to operating income of $6.5 million for the third quarter of 2009. Operating margins were 13% and 18% in the third quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Non-GAAP operating income decreased 12% to $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $7.8 million for the third quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP operating margins were 18% and 22% in the third quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Non-GAAP operating income and margins in the third quarter of 2010 excludes $1.6 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 2009 excludes $1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense.
Stuart Huizinga, chief financial officer of eHealth, stated, "In the third quarter we generated the largest individual and family health insurance submitted application volume in the history of eHealth. At the same time, third quarter operating margin declined both sequentially and on a year-over-year basis, which was significantly impacted by our record submitted application volume. The vast majority of marketing and advertising spend to generate individual and family plan applications is expensed when it is incurred, while the revenue stream resulting from that spend comes in over future periods, resulting in lower margins in high application volume quarters. Third quarter operating margin also reflected continued investment in our Medicare business."
Pre-tax Income -- Pre-tax income for the third quarter of 2010 was $4.8 million, a 27% decrease compared to pre-tax income of $6.6 million for the third quarter of 2009.
Net Income -- Net income for the third quarter of 2010 was $2.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Net income for the third quarter of 2009 was $3.5 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2010 was $3.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2009 of $4.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share. 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. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share in the third quarter of 2009 exclude $1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense, less $0.4 million for related income tax benefit.
Cash Flow and Cash Balance -- Cash flow from operations for the third quarter of 2010 was $5.6 million, compared to $7.6 million for the third quarter of 2009, representing a decrease of 27%. During the third quarters of 2010 and 2009, we utilized $2.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of previously unrecognized excess tax benefits related to share-based payments to reduce our federal and state income taxes payable. These excess tax benefits are shown in the cash flow statement as an increase in cash flow from financing activities and a decrease in cash flow from operating activities.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities as of September 30, 2010 totaled $139.1 million, compared to $153.5 million as of December 31, 2009. The change in cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 reflects $27.2 million of net cash used for the acquisition of PlanPrescriber, Inc. in April 2010 and $8.7 million used to repurchase 751,238 shares of the Company's common stock during September 2010.

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, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share.
-- Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter of 2010 consists of GAAP operating income excluding purchased intangible asset amortization expense and the effects of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 beginning in 2006. Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter of 2009 consists of GAAP operating income excluding the effects of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 beginning in 2006 and amortization of deferred stock-based compensation expense in accordance with APB 25 for grants made prior to 2006. -- Non-GAAP operating margins are calculated by dividing non-GAAP operating income by GAAP total revenue. -- Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2010 consists of GAAP net income excluding purchased intangible asset amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense recorded during the quarter (less related income tax benefit). Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2009 consists of GAAP net income excluding stock-based compensation expense recorded during the quarter (less related income tax benefit). -- 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, 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 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 impact, 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 net income and GAAP net income 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.
