CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EverQuote, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVER), a leading online insurance marketplace, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“We delivered record third quarter results for revenue, Variable Marketing Margin, or VMM, and Adjusted EBITDA that once again exceeded the high-end of our guidance range,” said Jayme Mendal, CEO of EverQuote. “We continue to benefit from the auto industry recovery and strong execution.  We are strategically investing into this strengthening demand environment, as we continue to effectively optimize our traffic operations, improve our AI-powered bidding solutions, and roll-out our next generation agent technology platform."

“Our record third quarter financial results and cash flow are evidence that we are emerging from the auto insurance downturn as a stronger company due to our ability to efficiently scale, drive strong operational leverage, and maintain disciplined expense management,” said Joseph Sanborn, CFO of EverQuote.  “Looking ahead, we expect to build upon our strong performance this year, while judiciously investing to position ourselves as the leader in our industry.”

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights:
(Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are relative to the third quarter of 2023).

  • Total revenue of $144.5 million, an increase of 163%.
  • Automotive insurance vertical revenue of $130.0 million, up 202%, and representing 90% of revenue.
  • Home and renters insurance vertical revenue of $14.1 million, up 30% compared to $10.9 million.
  • VMM increased to $43.9 million, compared to VMM of $19.4 million.
  • GAAP net income improved to $11.6 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $29.2 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased to $18.8 million, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.9 million.
  • Cash flow from operations of $23.6 million, compared to cash flow from operations of ($4.1) million.
  • Ended the quarter with $82.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of 36% from $60.9 million at the end of the second quarter of 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Outlook:

  • Revenue of $131.0 - $136.0 million, representing 140% year-over-year growth at the midpoint.
  • Variable Marketing Margin of $38.0 - $40.0 million, representing 89% year-over-year growth at the midpoint.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $14.0 - $16.0 million, versus a loss of ($0.9) million in the prior year’s period.

With respect to the Company’s expectations under “Fourth Quarter 2024 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, 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.
