About
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in our earnings presentation for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from net income (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) adjusted to exclude interest expense (net of interest income), loss on extinguishment of debt, income taxes, amortization expense, share-based compensation, corporate transaction related expenses, and other one-time expenses. By removing these expenses, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a clearer representation of operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA margin is a useful measurement of operating profitability for the same reasons we find Adjusted EBITDA useful and also because it provides a period-to-period comparison of our operating performance.
Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from net income (the most directly comparable GAAP measure), adjusted to exclude loss on extinguishment of debt, amortization expense, share-based compensation, corporate transaction related expenses, and other one-time expenses, and the related tax effect of those adjustments. By removing these expenses, we believe Adjusted net income provides a clearer representation of operating performance.
Additionally, we discuss certain key performance indicators, described below, which provide useful information about the Company’s business and the operational factors underlying the Company’s financial performance.
Written Premium is a key performance indicator defined as the total premium we placed with insurance programs during a reporting period, less “return premiums” refunded to policyholders due to cancellations, endorsement of policies, or otherwise. We believe written premium is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it is the primary driver of our commission revenue.
Revenue per Employee is a key performance indicator defined as revenue for the trailing four quarters, determined in accordance with GAAP, divided by the average number of our employees for the trailing four quarters. We monitor this as a metric of scaling growth and believe it to be a leading indicator of sustained profitability and efficiency.
Adjusted EBITDA per Employee is a key performance indicator defined as Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure (defined above) for the trailing four quarters divided by the average number of our employees for the trailing four quarters. We monitor this as a metric of scaling growth and believe it to be a leading indicator of sustained profitability and efficiency.
Safe Harbor Statement
This press release, our earnings presentation, and the earnings conference call contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this release, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance, and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “outlook,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue,” the negative of these terms, and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about us, include, among others, projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and business strategies, anticipated trends in our business, capital allocation plans, technology initiatives, and other future events or development. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed under the captions entitled “Risk factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
