Note 1 – Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business – eHealth, Inc. (the “Company,” “eHealth,” “we” or “us”) is a leading health insurance marketplace with a technology and service platform that provides consumer engagement, education and health insurance enrollment solutions. Our mission is to connect every person with the highest quality, most affordable health insurance and Medicare plans for their life circumstances. Our platform integrates proprietary and third-party developed educational content regarding health insurance plans with decision support tools to aid consumers in what has traditionally been a confusing and opaque health insurance purchasing process, and to help them obtain the health insurance products that meet their individual health and economic needs. Our omni-channel consumer engagement platform is designed to meet the consumer wherever they prefer to engage with us, and enables consumers to use our services online, through interactive chat, or by telephone with a licensed insurance agent. We have created a marketplace that offers consumers a broad choice of insurance products that includes thousands of Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, Medicare Part D prescription drug, individual and family, small business and other ancillary health insurance products from over 180 health insurance carriers across all fifty states and the District of Columbia.
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 2, 2020. The accompanying financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of eHealth, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with those rules and regulations. Certain reclassifications might be made to conform with the current presentation. However, the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and our results of operations for the periods presented. Our financial position as of March 31, 2020 and results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were not materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic but the Company is continuously assessing the evolving situation related to the pandemic. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2020 and therefore should not be relied upon as an indicator of future results.
Significant Accounting Polices, Estimates and Judgements – The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to, but not limited to, the commissions we expect to collect for each approved member cohort, allowance for credit loss, the useful lives of intangible assets, fair value of investments, recoverability of intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred income taxes, provision (benefit) for income taxes and the assumptions used in determining stock-based compensation. We base our estimates of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
With the exception of the change for the accounting of credit losses as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standard Updates ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses discussed below, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Seasonality – A greater number of our Medicare-related health insurance plans are sold in our fourth quarter during the Medicare annual enrollment period when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage for the following year. As a result, our Medicare plan-related commission revenue is highest in our fourth quarter. Due to the recent reintroduction of the Medicare Advantage open enrollment period that takes place in the first quarter of the year, our commission revenue is typically second-highest in our first quarter.
The majority of our major medical individual and family health insurance plans are sold in the fourth quarter during the annual open enrollment period under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and related amendments in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Individuals and families generally are not able to purchase major medical individual and family health insurance outside of the open enrollment period, unless they qualify for a special enrollment period as a result of certain qualifying events, such as losing employer-sponsored health insurance or moving to another state.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) – In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), that requires companies to present certain financial assets net of the amount expected to be collected. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability. Contract assets – commissions receivable are the Company's only financial assets that were materially impacted by this guidance.
We adopted ASU 2016-13 using a modified retrospective transition method on January 1, 2020 for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Results for periods after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASU 2016-13 while prior period amounts continue to be reported under the previous accounting standards. We recorded a $1.1 million decrease, net of income taxes, to the retained earnings as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2016-13. See Note 3 – Supplemental Financial Statement Information for further discussion on credit losses.
The impacts from the adoption are summarized as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

____________
*Adjustment to Other assets is related to the increase in deferred tax asset resulted from the adoption of the accounting guidance.
Financial Instruments (Topic 820) – In 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, to change the disclosure requirements for fair value measurement with the objective of improving the effectiveness of the notes to financial statements. This new guidance removed and modified certain disclosure requirements under Topic 820. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 with no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(unaudited)
Intangible – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – In 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to compute the implied fair value of goodwill to measure impairment. Instead, any goodwill impairment will equal the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. In addition, the guidance eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. This standard is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment test in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2020 with no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Income Taxes (Topic 740) – In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Tax, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which aims to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improve consistent application of and simplify U.S. GAAP for other areas under this Topic by clarifying existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2021. The amendments in this standard update have individually different adoption approaches. We do not anticipate a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosure from the adoption of this standard update.

(1)We define our individual and family plan offerings as major medical individual and family health insurance plans, which does not include Medicare-related, small business or ancillary plans. Individual and family health insurance plans include both qualified and non-qualified plans. Qualified health plans are individual and family health insurance plans that meet the requirements of the Affordable Care Act and are offered through the government-run health insurance exchange in the relevant jurisdiction. Non-qualified health plans are individual and family health insurance plans that meet the requirements of the Affordable Care Act and are not offered through the exchange in the relevant jurisdiction. Individuals that purchase non-qualified health plans cannot receive a subsidy in connection with the purchase of non-qualified plans.
Revenue Recognition Based on Estimated Constrained LTV
We recognize revenue for plans approved during the period by applying the latest estimated constrained life time value (“LTV”) for that product. We recognize adjustment revenue for plans approved in prior periods when there is a change in estimate to expected cash collections as a result of sufficient evidence that demonstrates a trend that is different from the estimated constrained LTV at the time of approval. We recognize adjustment revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. We assess the risk of significant revenue reversal based on statistical and qualitative analysis given historical information and current market conditions.
Our commission revenue for each product line is based on a number of assumptions, which include, but are not limited to, estimating conversion of an approved member to a paying member, forecasting average plan duration and forecasting the commission amounts likely to be received per member. These assumptions are based on our analysis of historical trends for different cohorts and incorporate management’s judgment in interpreting those trends to apply the constraints discussed below. For our Medicare commission revenue, which represented 89% and 79% of our total commission revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, the estimated average plan duration, which is the average length of time paying

(unaudited)
members are active on their plans, used to calculate Medicare health insurance plan LTVs historically has been approximately 3 years for Medicare Advantage plans, approximately 5 years for Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, and approximately 5 years for Medicare Supplement plans. While the average plan duration has been approximately 3 years for Medicare Advantage plans, certain members may have a duration of up to 12 years. The estimated average plan duration used to calculate the LTV for major medical individual and family health insurance plans historically has been approximately 1.5 to 2 years. For short term health insurance plan LTVs, the estimated average plan duration historically has been less than six months. For all other ancillary health insurance plan LTVs, the estimated average plan duration has historically varied from 1 to 3 years. To the extent we make changes to the assumptions we use to calculate constrained LTVs, we recognize the impact of changes to commission revenue in the reporting period in which the change is made, including revisions of estimated lifetime commissions either below or in excess of previously estimated constrained LTV recognized as revenue.
Constraints are applied to LTV for revenue recognition purposes to help ensuring that the total estimated lifetime commissions expected to be collected for an approved member’s plan are recognized as revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with future commissions receivable from the plan is subsequently resolved. Judgments that can be significant in estimating LTVs are related to the constraint. To determine the constraints to be applied to LTV, we compare prior calculations of LTV to actual cash received and review the reasons for any variations. We then apply judgment in assessing whether the difference between historical cash collections and LTV is representative of differences that can be expected in future periods. We also analyze whether circumstances have changed and consider any known or potential modifications to the inputs into LTV in light of the factors that can impact the amount of cash expected to be collected in future periods including but not limited to commission rates, carrier mix, plan duration, changes in laws and regulations, and cancellations of insurance plans offered by health insurance carriers with which we have a relationship. We evaluate the appropriateness of our constraints on a quarterly basis, and we update our assumptions when we observe a sufficient amount of evidence that would suggest that the long-term expectation underlying the assumptions has changed.
We recorded adjustment revenue of $12.7 million and $7.4 million, or $0.52 and $0.34 per basic share, or $0.49 and $0.34 per diluted share, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Since the adoption of ASC 606, we re-compute LTVs for all outstanding cohorts on a quarterly basis. We continually review and monitor changes in the data used to estimate LTV and compare the cash received for each cohort to our original estimates at the time of approval. The fluctuations of cash received for each cohort and LTV can be significant and may or may not be indicative of the need to adjust revenue for prior period cohorts. Changes in LTV may result in an increase or a decrease to revenue and a corresponding increase or decrease to contract assets – commissions receivable, accordingly. We analyze these fluctuations and, to the extent we see changes in our estimates of the cash commission collections that we believe are indicative of an increase or decrease to prior period LTVs, we adjust revenue for the affected cohorts at the time such determination is made and when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. As we accumulate more historical data, we continue to enhance our LTV estimation models using statistical tools to increase the accuracy of LTV estimates with an emphasis on improving member attrition forecasting. The enhancements to the LTV estimation model provide greater statistical certainty on expected cash collections, particularly for earlier period cohorts where there is more historical data available. Our LTV estimation models for the three months ended March 31, 2020 indicate increases in LTVs and estimates of future cash collections for earlier period cohorts of certain products within our Individual, Family and Small Business segment. However, after considering various market factors and recent changes due to the impact of COVID-19 to the U.S. economy, such as increases in unemployment rate, potential delays in customer premium payments and/or health insurance carrier commission payments, potential changes to enrollment periods, and potential changes to qualified health plan subsidies, we limited the adjustment revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 to actual cash collected in excess of previously recognized revenue for certain cohorts related to individual and family as well as ancillary plans. These prevailing market conditions did not have an impact on the amount of adjustment revenue recognized for any other products we sell.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
We consider all investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at fair value. We also invested in marketable securities that are measured and recorded at fair value. See Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements for further discussion about our marketable securities. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our cash, cash equivalent and restricted cash balances were invested as follows (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $3.4 million of restricted cash which was classified as a non-current asset on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount collateralizes letters of credit related to certain lease commitments.
Contract Assets and Accounts Receivable

We estimate the allowance for credit loss balance using relevant available information from internal and external sources, related to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Specifically, for the purpose of measuring the probability of default parameters, we utilize Capital IQ, Standard & Poors and Moody's analytics. Our estimates of loss given default are determined by using our historical collections data as well as historical information obtained through our research and review of other insurance related companies. Our estimated exposure at default is determined by applying these internal and external data sources to our commission receivable balances. As such, we apply an immediate reversion method and revert to historical loss information when computing our credit loss exposure.
Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 326, we considered the impact of recent events and global economic condition when evaluating the appropriate adjustments to our allowance as of March 31, 2020. Determining the extent of these adjustments in the three months ended March 31, 2020 was especially challenging because we do not have any historical loss information for a period of similar economic decline. We considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimated of credit losses was not materially impacted as of March 31, 2020. After our management's evaluation, we recorded credit loss expenses of $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 which is included in general and administrative expense on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Our contract assets – commission receivable activities, net of credit losses are summarized as follows (in thousands):
