Insights
The substantial 52% increase in revenue to $1.6 billion that agilon health reported for Q1 2024 represents a notable expansion of their business, indicating the company's ability to grow its customer base and increase its operational scale. However, the report also indicates a net loss of $6 million, which contrasts last year’s net income of $16 million, signaling potential concerns over profitability despite top-line growth. The slight increase in Medical Margin by 1% to $157 million, juxtaposed against the significant revenue increase, suggests that the company may be facing pressure on margins or increasing costs that are not scaling proportionately with revenue.
The maintenance of full-year 2024 guidance for Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA suggests management confidence in their strategy and operational control. The guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to remain relatively flat despite aggressive growth ambitions may disappoint investors looking for improvements in profitability scaled to revenue growth. The balanced capital position, with $426 million in cash against $37 million in total debt, provides financial stability but it will be key to monitor how these resources are deployed to support growth initiatives and improve profitability.
For retail investors, the critical takeaway is the juxtaposition of robust top-line growth against the backdrop of a net loss, requiring a keen eye on future profitability metrics and the effectiveness of the performance action plan laid out by management.
Agilon health's growth in Medicare Advantage membership by 43% and the expansion of their overall membership base indicates a successful penetration in the Medicare Advantage market. Their strategic focus on this segment is pertinent as Medicare Advantage continues to represent a growing portion of the healthcare coverage landscape. This demographic tailwind could be a long-term driver of growth for agilon.
The execution of their performance action plan, including refining payer relationships and enhancing physician onboarding, speaks to efforts to improve operational efficiencies and physician engagement – which are critical for success in value-based care models. However, the decision to exit unprofitable payor contracts could be a double-edged sword, potentially improving margins but also affecting short-term growth rates.
From the perspective of healthcare dynamics, agilon’s growing traction with ACO model beneficiaries, which saw a 48% increase, is significant. ACOs (Accountable Care Organizations) are designed to improve patient care coordination and can provide cost savings over time, which may enhance agilon’s value proposition in the market. The emphasis on adding primary care physicians to its network is a strategic advantage, enabling agilon to potentially capitalize on value-based care paradigms.

Maintaining full year 2024 guidance for Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA
“Our first quarter results were in-line with our guidance,” said Steve Sell, chief executive officer. “We continue to make tangible progress executing our performance action plan. As payors adjust to the current funding environment for Medicare Advantage, we remain well positioned as our value proposition to primary care doctors and payors is increasingly important and well-recognized.”

Continued Progress on Performance Action Plan
agilon health continues to make progress executing its targeted action plan to improve performance.

The company continues to deploy structured training and education resources to physician partners with

Includes transaction-related costs. |
Our platform support costs, which include regionally-based support personnel and other operating costs to support our geographies, are expected to decrease over time as a percentage of revenue as our physician partners add members and our revenue grows. Our operating expenses at the enterprise level include resources and technology to support payor contracting, clinical program development, quality, data management, finance, and legal and compliance functions.

Certain of our operations are not consolidated for the period presented because we do not have the ability to control certain activities due to another party’s control of the entities’ board of directors. Although revenues of the unconsolidated operations are not recorded as revenues by us, income (loss) from equity method investments is nonetheless a significant portion of our overall earnings. See Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2024 for additional discussion on our equity method investments.
In addition to providing results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures.
We define Medical Margin as medical services revenue after medical services expense is deducted. Medical services expense represents costs incurred for medical services provided to our members. As our platform matures over time, we expect Medical Margin to increase in absolute dollars. However, Medical Margin per member per month (PMPM) may vary as the percentage of new members brought onto our platform fluctuates. New membership added to the platform is typically dilutive to Medical Margin PMPM. We believe this metric provides insight into the economics of our capitation arrangements as it includes all medical services expense directly associated with our members’ care.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude: (i) income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) income tax expense (benefit), (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) stock-based compensation expense, (vi) severance and related costs, and (vii) certain other items that are not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We reflect our share of Adjusted EBITDA for equity method investments by applying our actual ownership percentage for the period to the applicable reconciling items on an entity-by-entity basis.
Gross profit is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Medical Margin. Net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA.
We believe Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA help identify underlying trends in our business and facilitate evaluation of period-to-period operating performance of our operations by eliminating items that are variable in nature and not considered by us in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance, allowing comparison of our recurring core business operating results over multiple periods. We also believe Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information about our operating results, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics we use for financial and operational decision-making. We believe Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies, and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of financial performance. Other companies may calculate Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently from the way we calculate these metrics. As a result, our presentation of Medical Margin and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
