WASHINGTON, Nov. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolent Health, Inc. (NYSE: EVH), a health care company that delivers proven clinical and administrative solutions to payers and providers, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Highlights from the third quarter of 2020 include:

  • GAAP revenue of $264.6 million, an increase of 20.2% year-over-year.
  • Net loss attributable to common shareholders of Evolent Health, Inc. of $(37.3) million.
  • Achieved adjusted EBITDA of $12.7 million.
  • Lives on platform of approximately 3.5 million.
  • Announced two new provider customers for total cost of care, in addition to today's announcement of Florida Blue Medicare as a specialty care customer.
  • Closed the Passport Health Plan asset sale.

Seth Blackley, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Evolent Health commented, "Overall, I am very pleased with our results for the quarter and the progress we have made executing on our strategic priorities: driving strong organic growth in our core three solutions, expanding margins and efficiently allocating capital. During the quarter we signed two new provider partnerships in our total cost of care solution and today we are announcing the addition of Florida Blue Medicare on our specialty care management platform, New Century Health. This takes our total partner additions to 8 for 2020 and, importantly, opens up the Blue Cross Blue Shield segment for New Century Health. In addition, we are growing our relationships with existing partners, including an expansion of our administrative simplification solution with SOMOS. These agreements and our robust pipeline demonstrate the significant value we are adding for customers."

Mr. Blackley continued, "In addition to driving top line growth, we continued expanding our Adjusted EBITDA margins in the quarter through our focus on operating discipline. Looking ahead, our targeted overhead cost initiative is exceeding our expectations as we work to drive margin expansion in 2021 and beyond."

"We remain focused on maximizing long-term shareholder value by driving top- and bottom-line growth in our three core solutions and also by optimizing our financial model through efficient capital allocation.  We are continuing to explore strategic options for our health plan assets and have made significant progress, including completing the sale of assets of Passport and agreeing to sell our interests in the Lighthouse Health Plan to Anthem. Looking ahead, we see several macro trends accelerating that will support our business in the years ahead, including an enhanced focus on cost and value from purchasers of health care services, policy-based focus on driving the shift to value, and increased pressure on managed care plans as a result of the continued impact of COVID-19. With these tailwinds at our back, we will continue to execute on our focused strategy and are encouraged by the strong pipeline momentum of our solutions into 2021."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, we present and discuss Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Services Revenue, Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue, Adjusted Platform and Operations Services Revenue, Adjusted Cost of Revenue, Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses, Adjusted Total Operating Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Services Adjusted EBITDA, True Health Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Weighted-Average Common Shares, which are all non-GAAP financial measures, as supplemental measures to help investors evaluate our fundamental operational performance.

Adjusted Services Revenue is defined as the sum of Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue and Adjusted Platform and Operations Services Revenue. Adjusted Revenue is defined as the sum of Adjusted Services Revenue and True Health premiums revenue, less relevant intersegment eliminations. Management uses Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Services Revenue, Adjusted Transformation Services Revenue and Adjusted Platform and Operations Services Revenue as supplemental performance measures because they reflect a complete view of the operational results. The measures are also useful to investors because they reflect the full view of our operational performance in line with how we generate our long term forecasts.

Adjusted Cost of Revenue and Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses are defined as cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, adjusted to exclude the impact of stock-based compensation expenses, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets recorded as a result of a one-time ASC 606 transition adjustment, acquisition-related costs related to acquisitions and business combinations, securities offerings and other one-time adjustments. Management uses Adjusted Cost of Revenue and Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses as supplemental performance measures, which are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our long term operational costs while removing the effect of costs that are not expected to reoccur frequently (e.g. acquisition-related costs) and non-cash (e.g. stock-based compensation expenses) in nature. Additionally, these supplemental performance measures facilitate understanding a breakdown of our Adjusted Total Operating Expenses. Adjustments for acquisition-related costs incurred generally represent professional service fees and direct expenses related to acquisitions. Because we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, we do not consider the amount of acquisition-related costs to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.

Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses is defined as depreciation and amortization expenses adjusted to exclude the impact of amortization expenses related to intangible assets acquired through asset acquisitions and business combinations. Management uses Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses as a supplemental performance measure because it reflects a complete view of the operational results. The measure is also useful to investors because it facilitates understanding a breakdown of our Adjusted Total Operating Expenses.

Adjusted Total Operating Expenses is defined as the sum of Adjusted Cost of Revenue, Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Adjusted Depreciation and Amortization Expenses, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures. Adjusted Total Operating Expenses is further adjusted to exclude the impact of adjustments such as goodwill impairment, equity method investment impairment, severance costs, and items arising from acquisitions and business combinations, such as changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification assets.

Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is defined as Adjusted Revenue less Adjusted Total Operating Expenses, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (net loss attributable to common shareholders of Evolent Health, Inc. before interest income, interest expense, (provision) benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses), adjusted to exclude equity method investment impairment, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain (loss) from equity method investees, gain (loss) on disposal of assets, goodwill impairment, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification asset, other income (expense), net, net loss attributable to non-controlling interests, purchase accounting adjustments, stock-based compensation expense, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets and acquisition-related costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA dividend by Adjusted Revenue.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because the removal of acquisition-related costs, one-time or non-cash items (e.g. depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses) allows us to focus on operational performance. We believe that this measure is also useful to investors because it allows further insight into the period over period operational performance in a manner that is comparable to other organizations in our industry and in the market in general.

Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders is defined as earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders adjusted to exclude, income (loss) from equity method investees, other income (expense), net, gain (loss) on disposal of assets, impairment of equity method investees, goodwill impairment, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and indemnification assets, net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests, purchase accounting adjustments, stock-based compensation expenses, severance costs, amortization of contract cost assets recorded as a result of a one-time ASC 606 transition adjustment, acquisition-related costs and other one-time adjustments.

Adjusted Weighted-Average Common Shares is defined as weighted average common shares (diluted) adjusted to include, in periods of net loss, the dilutive or potentially dilutive effect of the assumed conversion of Class B common shares to Class A common shares.

Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders is defined as Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders divided by Adjusted Weighted-Average Common Shares, and reflects the adjustments made in those non-GAAP measures.

Management uses Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders, Adjusted Weighted-Average Common Shares and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share Available to Common Shareholders because these performance measures represent our core operating performance distributed amongst all of our investors which is not represented by the GAAP results across time due to our complex equity structure. We believe that these measures are also useful to investors for the same reason.

These adjusted measures do not represent and should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measurements, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of these adjusted measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures is presented in the tables below. We believe these measures are useful across time in evaluating our fundamental core operating performance.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE

Certain statements made in this report and in other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("PSLRA"). A forward-looking statement is a statement that is not a historical fact and, without limitation, includes any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements, and may contain words like: "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "aim," "predict," "potential," "continue," "plan," "project," "will," "should," "shall," "may," "might" and other words or phrases with similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, trends in our businesses, prospective services, future performance or financial results and the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings. We claim the protection afforded by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by the PSLRA.

These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results contained in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to vary materially, some of which are described within the forward-looking statements, include, among others:

  • the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • the economic benefits we expect to receive as a result of the sale of certain assets of Passport may not be realized;
  • the significant portion of revenue we derive from our largest partners, and the potential loss, termination or renegotiation of our relationship or contract with any significant partner, or multiple partners in the aggregate;
  • the structural change in the market for health care in the United States;
  • uncertainty in the health care regulatory framework, including the potential impact of policy changes;
  • uncertainty in the public exchange market;

  • risks related to completed and future acquisitions, investments, alliances and joint ventures, including the acquisition of assets from New Mexico Health Connections, and the acquisitions of Valence Health Inc., excluding Cicerone Health Solutions, Inc., Aldera Holdings, Inc., NCIS Holdings, Inc. ("New Century Health"), and Passport, which may be difficult to integrate, divert management resources, or result in unanticipated costs or dilute our stockholders;
  • our ability to consummate opportunities in our pipeline;
  • risks relating to our ability to maintain profitability for our total cost of care and New Century Health's performance-based contracts and products, including capitation and risk-bearing contracts;
  • the growth and success of our partners, which is difficult to predict and is subject to factors outside of our control, including governmental funding reductions and other policy changes, enrollment numbers for our partners' plans (including in Florida), premium pricing reductions, selection bias in at-risk membership and the ability to control and, if necessary, reduce health care costs;
  • our ability to attract new partners and successfully capture new growth opportunities;
  • the increasing number of risk-sharing arrangements we enter into with our partners;
  • our ability to recover the significant upfront costs in our partner relationships;
  • our ability to estimate the size of our target markets;
  • our ability to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand recognition;
  • consolidation in the health care industry;
  • competition which could limit our ability to maintain or expand market share within our industry;
  • risks related to governmental payer audits and actions, including whistleblower claims;
  • our ability to partner with providers due to exclusivity provisions in our contracts;
  • restrictions and penalties as a result of privacy and data protection laws;
  • adequate protection of our intellectual property, including trademarks;
  • any alleged infringement, misappropriation or violation of third-party proprietary rights;
  • our use of "open source" software;

  • our reliance on Internet infrastructure, bandwidth providers, data center providers, other third parties and our own systems for providing services to our users;
  • our reliance on third-party vendors to host and maintain our technology platform;
  • our ability to contain health care costs, implement increases in premium rates on a timely basis, maintain adequate reserves for policy benefits or maintain cost effective provider agreements;
  • True Health New Mexico's ability to enter the individual market;
  • the risk of a significant reduction in the enrollment in our health plan;
  • our ability to accurately underwrite performance-based risk-bearing contracts;
  • risks related to our offshore operations;
  • our dependency on our key personnel, and our ability to attract, hire, integrate and retain key personnel;
  • the impact of additional goodwill and intangible asset impairments on our results of operations;
  • our indebtedness, our ability to service our indebtedness, the impact of covenants in our credit agreement on our business, our ability to access the delayed draw loan under our credit facility and our ability to obtain additional financing;
  • our ability to achieve profitability in the future;
  • the impact of litigation, including the ongoing class action lawsuit;
  • our obligations to make payments to certain of our pre-IPO investors for certain tax benefits we may claim in the future;
  • our ability to utilize benefits under the tax receivables agreement described herein;
  • our obligations to make payments under the tax receivables agreement that may be accelerated or may exceed the tax benefits we realize;
  • the terms of agreements between us and certain of our pre-IPO investors;
  • the conditional conversion features of the 2024 and 2025 convertible notes, which, if triggered, could require us to settle the 2024 or 2025 convertible notes in cash;
  • the impact of the accounting method for convertible debt securities that may be settled in cash;
  • the potential volatility of our Class A common stock price;
  • the potential decline of our Class A common stock price if a substantial number of shares are sold or become available for sale;
  • provisions in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and second amended and restated by-laws and provisions of Delaware law that discourage or prevent strategic transactions, including a takeover of us;
  • the ability of certain of our investors to compete with us without restrictions;
  • provisions in our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation which could limit our stockholders' ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or employees;
  • our intention not to pay cash dividends on our Class A common stock; and
  • our ability to remediate our material weaknesses and to maintain effective internal control over certain instances of one of our claims processing systems.

The risks included here are not exhaustive. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed with the SEC include additional factors that could affect our businesses and financial performance.
