eHealth, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results
Q2 2025 results reflect strategic execution in a rapidly evolving industry
Raises 2025 annual revenue and earnings guidance to reflect strong YTD performance
AUSTIN, Texas — August 6, 2025 — eHealth, Inc. (Nasdaq: EHTH), a leading private online health insurance marketplace, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

CEO Comments |  |
“eHealth delivered a strong second quarter, once again exceeding our revenue and profitability expectations and demonstrating our ability to adapt to an evolving macro and regulatory landscape. Based on our year-to-date performance, we are updating our 2025 annual guidance ranges. During the quarter, we began preparations for the most critical selling season of the year—the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (“AEP”). In light of recent industry developments, we anticipate a dynamic AEP marked by elevated consumer shopping activity. We believe this environment presents a meaningful opportunity for eHealth to further differentiate itself as a trusted Medicare advisor, ensuring beneficiaries retain uninterrupted access to quality and affordable healthcare. With our broad plan selection, industry-leading omni-channel shopping and enrollment platform, and distinct consumer brand, we are well-positioned for another successful AEP.” – Fran Soistman, Chief Executive Officer

EHEALTH, INC.
SEGMENT INFORMATION
(in thousands, unaudited)
We evaluate our business performance and manage our operations as two distinct reporting segments: Medicare and Employer and Individual (“E&I”). The Medicare segment consists primarily of commissions earned as the broker of record from our sale of Medicare-related health insurance plans, including Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, and to a lesser extent, ancillary products sold to our Medicare-eligible beneficiaries, including but not limited to, dental and vision insurance. Our commissions may include certain bonus payments, which are generally based on attaining predetermined target sales levels or other objectives, as determined by the health insurance carriers. The Medicare segment also consists of amounts earned in connection with our advertising program for marketing and other services as well as amounts earned from our non-broker of record fee-based arrangements and our performance of various post-enrollment services for members. The E&I segment consists primarily of commissions earned from our sale of individual and family plans (“IFP”), including qualified and non-qualified plans, small business health insurance plans and ancillary products sold to our non-Medicare-eligible consumers, including but not limited to, dental, vision and short-term insurance. To a lesser extent, the E&I segment includes amounts earned from our online sponsorship program that allows carriers to purchase advertising space in specific markets on our website as well as our technology licensing activities.
We report segment information based on how our chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), regularly reviews our operating results, allocates resources and makes decisions regarding our business operation in the annual budget and forecasting process along with evaluation of actual performance. Our CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis for our segment performance measures when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel to our segments. These performance measures include total segment revenue and segment gross profit (loss). Prior to the fourth quarter of 2024, we reported our measure of segment profitability as segment profit (loss). Accordingly, prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, in all material respects.
Segment gross profit (loss) is calculated as total revenue for the applicable segment less variable marketing and advertising expenses, segment customer care and enrollment expenses (“CC&E”) and cost of revenue for the applicable segment. Variable marketing and advertising expenses represent costs incurred in member acquisition from our direct marketing and marketing partner channels and exclude fixed overhead costs, such as personnel related costs, consulting expenses and other operating costs allocated to the marketing and advertising department. Segment CC&E expenses include expenses we incur in assisting applicants during the enrollment process and exclude operating costs allocated to the CC&E department.
The results of our reportable segments are summarized for the periods presented below:

Our commission revenue is primarily comprised of commissions from health insurance carriers which is computed using the estimated constrained lifetime values of commission payments that we expect to receive. Our commissions may include certain bonus payments, which are generally based on our attaining predetermined target sales levels or other objectives, as determined by the health insurance carriers.

(1)Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement eHealth’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, eHealth presents investors with non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP total revenue excluding net adjustment revenue, non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA excluding net adjustment revenue.
•Non-GAAP total revenue excluding net adjustment revenue is calculated by excluding the effect of net commission revenue from members approved in prior periods (“net adjustment revenue”) from total revenue.
•Non-GAAP operating costs and expenses are calculated by excluding the effect of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock awards, performance-based and market-based awards and employee stock purchase plan from the respective GAAP operating costs and expenses. Total non-GAAP operating costs and expenses is calculated by excluding the effect of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock awards, performance-based and market-based awards and employee stock purchase plan and impairment, restructuring and other charges from GAAP total operating costs and expenses.
•Non-GAAP net income (loss) is calculated by excluding net adjustment revenue and impairment, restructuring and other charges, net of tax from GAAP net income (loss).
•Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by excluding dividends for preferred stock and change in preferred stock redemption value (together the “impact from preferred stock”), provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, impairment, restructuring and other charges, interest expense, other income (expense), net, and other non-recurring charges from GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders. Other non-recurring charges to GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders may include transaction expenses in connection with capital raising transactions (whether debt, equity or equity-linked) and acquisitions, whether or not consummated, purchase price adjustments and the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
•Adjusted EBITDA excluding net adjustment revenue is calculated by excluding net adjustment revenue, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, impairment, restructuring and other charges, interest expense, other income (expense), net, and other non-recurring charges from GAAP net income (loss).
eHealth believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to eHealth’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with eHealth’s past financial reports. Management also believes that the items described above provide an additional measure of eHealth’s operating results and facilitates comparisons of eHealth’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 eHealth’s ongoing operations. eHealth believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in their assessment of eHealth’s operating performance.
Non-GAAP total revenue excluding net adjustment revenue, non-GAAP operating costs and expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted EBITDA excluding net adjustment revenue 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 eHealth’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. eHealth expects to continue to incur the stock-based compensation costs and depreciation and amortization 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. eHealth compensates for these limitations by prominently disclosing GAAP total revenue, GAAP operating costs and expenses, GAAP net income (loss) before taxes, GAAP net income (loss), GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, GAAP net income (loss) margin and providing investors with reconciliations from eHealth’s GAAP operating results to the non-GAAP financial measures for the relevant periods.
The tables above 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.

(2)Approved members represent the number of individuals on submitted applications that were approved by the relevant insurance carrier for the identified product during the current period for which we are the broker of record. The applications may be submitted in either the current period or prior periods. Not all approved members ultimately become paying members.
(3)Constrained lifetime value (“LTV”) of commissions per approved member for Medicare, individual and family and ancillary plans represents commissions estimated to be collected over the estimated life of an approved member’s plan after applying constraints in accordance with our revenue recognition policy. Constrained LTV of commissions per approved member for small business represents the estimated commissions we expect to collect from the plan over the following twelve months. The estimate is driven by multiple factors, including but not limited to, contracted commission rates, carrier mix, estimated average plan duration, the regulatory environment, and cancellations of insurance plans offered by health insurance carriers with which we have a relationship and applied constraints. The constraints are applied to help ensure that commissions estimated to be collected over the estimated life of 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. These factors may result in varying values from period to period.
(4)Expense Metrics per Approved Member: Marketing initiatives are an important component of our strategy to increase revenue and are primarily designed to encourage consumers to complete an application for health insurance. We calculate and evaluate the customer care and enrollment (“CC&E”) expense per approved member and the variable marketing cost per approved member. We incur CC&E expenses in assisting applicants during the enrollment process. Variable marketing costs represent costs incurred in member acquisition from our direct marketing and marketing partner channels. Variable marketing costs exclude fixed overhead costs, such as personnel related costs, consulting expenses and other operating costs allocated to the marketing and advertising department.
The numerator used to calculate each member acquisition metric discussed above is the portion of the respective operating expenses for CC&E and marketing and advertising that is directly related to member acquisition for our sale of Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans (collectively, the “Medicare Plans”) and for all individual and family major medical plans and short-term health insurance plans (collectively, “IFP Plans”), respectively, for which we are the broker of record. The denominator used to calculate each metric is based on a derived metric that represents the relative value of the new members acquired. For Medicare Plans, we call this derived metric Medicare Advantage (“MA”)-equivalent approved members, and for IFP Plans, we call this derived metric IFP-equivalent approved members. MA-equivalent approved members is a derived metric with a Medicare Part D approved member being weighted at 25% of a Medicare Advantage member and a Medicare Supplement member based on their relative LTVs at the time of our adoption of ASC 606. We calculate the number of MA-equivalent approved members by adding the total number of approved Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement members and 25% of the total number of approved Medicare Part D members during the periods presented. IFP-equivalent approved members is a derived metric with a short-term approved member being weighted at 33% of a major medical individual and family health insurance plan member based on their relative LTVs at the time of our adoption of ASC 606. We calculate the number of IFP-equivalent approved members by adding the total number of approved qualified and non-qualified health plan members and 33% of the total number of short-term approved members during the period presented.
(5)Estimated membership represents the estimated number of members active as of the date indicated based on the number of members for whom we have received or applied a commission payment during the period of estimation as well as the number of approved members during the period of estimation from whom we expect to receive commission payments. There is generally up to a few months lag between newly approved plans and the receipt of commission payments from the health insurance carrier and is most pronounced in the fourth and first quarters of our fiscal year due to the annual and open enrollment periods. A member who purchases and is active on multiple standalone insurance plans will be counted as a member more than once.
Health insurance carriers bill and collect insurance premiums paid by our members. The carriers do not report to us the number of members that we have as of a given date. The majority of our members who terminate their policies do so by discontinuing their premium payments to the carrier or notifying the carrier directly and do not inform us of the cancellation. Also, some of our members pay their premiums less frequently than monthly. Given the number of months required to observe non-payment of commissions in order to confirm cancellations, we estimate the number of members who are active on insurance policies as of a specified date.
After we have estimated membership as of a specified date, we may receive information from health insurance carriers that would have impacted the estimate if we had received the information prior to the date of estimation. We may receive commission payments or other information that indicates that a member who was not included in our estimates for a prior period was in fact an active member at that time, or that a member who was included in our estimates was in fact not an active member of ours. For instance, we reconcile information carriers provide to us and may determine that we were not historically paid commissions owed to us, which would cause us to have underestimated membership. Conversely, carriers may require us to return commission payments paid in a prior period due to policy cancellations for members we previously estimated as being active. We do not update our estimated membership numbers reported in previous periods. Instead, we reflect updated information regarding our historical membership in the membership estimate for the current period. If we experience a significant variance in historical membership as compared to our initial estimates, while we keep the prior period data consistent with previously reported amounts, we may provide the updated information in other communications or disclosures. As a result of the delay in our receipt of information from insurance carriers, actual trends in our membership are most discernible over periods longer than from one quarter to the next, making it difficult for us

to determine with any certainty the impact of current conditions on our membership retention. Various circumstances could cause the assumptions and estimates that we make in connection with estimating our membership to be inaccurate, which would cause our membership estimates to be inaccurate.
(6)To estimate the number of members on Medicare-related, individual and family, and ancillary health insurance plans, we take the respective sum of (i) the number of members for whom we have received or applied a commission payment for a month that may be up to three months prior to the date of estimation (after reducing that number using historical experience for assumed member cancellations over the period being estimated); and (ii) the number of approved members over that period (after reducing that number using historical experience for an assumed number of members who do not accept their approved policy and for estimated member cancellations). To the extent we determine through confirmations from a health insurance carrier that a commission payment is delayed or is inaccurate as of the date of estimation, we adjust the estimated membership to also reflect the number of members for whom we expect to receive or to refund a commission payment. Further, to the extent we have received substantially all of the commission payments related to a given month during the period being estimated, we will take the number of members for whom we have received or applied a commission payment during the month of estimation. For ancillary health insurance plans, the one-to-three-month period varies by insurance product and is largely dependent upon the timeliness of commission payment and related reporting from the related carriers.
(7)To estimate the number of members on small business health insurance plans, we use the number of initial members at the time the group was approved, and we update this number for changes in membership if such changes are reported to us by the group or carrier. However, groups generally notify the carrier directly of policy cancellations and increases or decreases in group size without informing us. Health insurance carriers often do not communicate policy cancellation information or group size changes to us. We often are made aware of policy cancellations and group size changes at the time of annual renewal and update our membership statistics accordingly in the period they are reported.
