EverQuote Announces Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

 

•

Third Quarter Revenue of $55.0 million

 

•

Third Quarter Variable Marketing Margin of $19.4 million, Representing 35% of Revenue

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 6, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EverQuote, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVER), a leading online insurance marketplace, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

“In the third quarter, EverQuote delivered revenue of $55.0 million, Variable Marketing Margin, or VMM, of $19.4 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of negative $1.9 million,” said Jayme Mendal, CEO of EverQuote. “During the quarter, we restored greater focus on our most differentiated assets so we can accelerate the rate at which we deliver deeper value to our customers. These assets include our P&C insurance shopping traffic scale and technology, our local agent network, and our proprietary data and associated data science and machine learning capabilities.

“As we work through this challenging auto insurance market, our team’s strong execution and proven resilience give us high confidence that we will be well positioned when the market recovers. EverQuote’s vision remains unchanged: to become the largest online source of insurance policies, using data, technology, and knowledgeable advisors to make insurance simpler, more affordable and more personalized,” concluded Mr. Mendal.

“We have continued to focus on what we can control by taking decisive action to judiciously manage expenses and build our balance sheet,” said Joseph Sanborn, CFO of EverQuote. “We remain focused on streamlining our cost structure, maintaining financial flexibility, restoring a pattern of consistent cash generation, and driving towards profitability.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights:

(Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are relative to the third quarter of 2022. EverQuote exited the health insurance vertical at the end of the second quarter of 2023. Revenue in our health insurance vertical was $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.)

 

•

Total revenue of $55.0 million, a decrease of 47%.

 

•

Automotive insurance vertical revenue of $43.1 million, a decrease of 51%.

 

•

Revenue from home and renters insurance vertical of $10.9 million, an increase of 51%.

 

•

VMM of $19.4 million, representing 35% of revenue.

 

•

GAAP net loss increased to a loss of $29.2 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $6.5 million. The net loss includes a $19.4 million charge related to the sale of our health insurance vertical assets.

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $(1.9) million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million.

 

•

Ended the quarter with $39.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of 26% from $31.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023.

---

Fourth Quarter 2023 Outlook:

(Revenue in our health insurance vertical was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.)

For the fourth quarter 2023, EverQuote anticipates revenue, Variable Marketing Margin and Adjusted EBITDA to be in the following ranges:

 

•

Revenue of $47.0 - $52.0 million.

 

•

Variable Marketing Margin of $16.5 - $18.5 million.

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA of $(4.5) - $(2.5) million.

With respect to the Company’s expectations under “Fourth Quarter 2023 Outlook” above, the Company has not reconciled the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP measure net income (loss) in this press release because the Company does not provide guidance for stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlement expense, one-time severance charges, interest income, and income taxes on a consistent basis as the Company is unable to quantify these amounts without unreasonable efforts, which would be required to include a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss). In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

(1)	Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Please see “EverQuote, Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP” below for more information.

To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP and to provide investors with additional information regarding EverQuote’s financial results, the Company has presented Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense; depreciation and amortization expense; restructuring and other charges; acquisition-related costs; interest income; and income taxes. The most directly comparable GAAP

---

measure is net income (loss). The Company monitors and presents Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by management and the board of directors to understand and evaluate operating performance, to establish budgets and to develop operational goals for managing EverQuote’s business. In particular, the Company believes that excluding the impact of these items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of EverQuote’s core operating performance.

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate EverQuote’s operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in EverQuote’s business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the items that the Company excludes in the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, the Company believes that this financial measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating EverQuote’s operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, which could reduce the usefulness of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Key Metrics Definitions Variable Marketing Margin We define variable marketing margin, or VMM, as revenue, as reported in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), less advertising costs (a component of sales and marketing expense, as reported in our statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss)). We use VMM to measure the efficiency of individual advertising and consumer acquisition sources and to make trade-off decisions to manage our return on advertising. We do not use VMM as a measure of profitability. Adjusted EBITDA We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlement expense, one-time severance charges, interest income and the provision for (benefit from) income taxes. We monitor & present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management & board of directors to understand & evaluate our operating performance, to establish budgets & to develop operational goals for managing our business.
