Metromile Announces Third Quarter 2021 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Metromile, a digital auto insurer, reported Q3 2021 results with flat Policies in Force but growth seen in October. The company faced high customer acquisition costs and elevated loss ratios of 81.6%, impacted by industry inflation and Hurricane Ida. An all-stock acquisition by Lemonade was announced, valuing Metromile at $500 million. Key metrics included a 6.7% increase in Direct Earned Premium to $28.5 million and a 65% one-year new customer retention rate. Metromile also saw an increase in operating expenses due to growth initiatives.

Positive

• Direct Earned Premium increased by 6.7% to $28.5 million.
• Policies in Force grew for three consecutive months, including October.
• One-year new customer retention rate stood at 65%.
• Enterprise software revenue rose to $1.5 million, up from $1.1 million.

Negative

• Loss ratio elevated at 81.6%, primarily due to Hurricane Ida and industry-wide inflation.
• Customer acquisition costs increased, impacting profitability.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Metromile, Inc. (NASDAQ: MILE, MILEW), a leading digital insurance platform and pay-per-mile auto insurer, today announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

“During the quarter, we continued to make progress on and invest in our growth initiatives, and while our Policies in Force were largely flat for the quarter ending September 30, 2021, Policies in Force have now grown for three consecutive months, including October,” said Dan Preston, Chief Executive Officer of Metromile. “We also saw a rising cost of acquisition as we ramped our investment to increase our brand awareness and reinforce trust with customers. Key initiatives included refreshing our messaging to align with drivers’ current needs, expanding our Independent Agent channel with a comparative rater integration, and continued work toward state expansion. Additionally, Metromile Enterprise continues to make progress, signing up new customers like Buckle for its software solutions.”

“Loss ratios remained elevated given industry-wide inflation in costs across bodily injury and physical damage,” added Mr. Preston. “Our loss ratio for the quarter of 81.6% reflects 4.4 points of catastrophe-related costs, with an estimated adjusted 77.2% loss ratio after removing the effects of Hurricane Ida. We expect our rate filings in progress across most of our footprint will address these higher losses and improve profitability over the course of 2022.”

The power of Metromile and Lemonade joining forces

On November 8, 2021, we, together with Lemonade, Inc. (“Lemonade”), announced a definitive agreement pursuant to which Lemonade will acquire Metromile in an all-stock transaction that implied a fully diluted equity value of approximately $500 million. As of September 30, 2021, Metromile had net unrestricted cash of approximately $160 million, implying an enterprise value of about $340 million.

The companies have deeply aligned missions and market potential; together, we believe we can create a far superior outcome for Metromile and Lemonade shareholders alike:

• Metromile’s ten year track record in data science-powered auto insurance, coupled with Lemonade’s well loved brand and high customer trust, position the combined company as the ideal destination for modern drivers everywhere.
• Lemonade has a proven track record of cross-selling insurance products to its rapidly growing customer base of nearly 1.4 million customers.
• Beyond auto, the combined value proposition offers significant benefits across a customer’s lifetime (renters, home, life, pet) while broadening the set of advantages against incumbents.
• Lastly, given our recent rising customer acquisition costs and the additional capital required, we believe the companies together will gain substantial customer acquisition and cost efficiencies through investments in a single brand, technology, and platform.

In sum, our shareholders will now participate in the upside of the combined entity, which we believe will be substantially stronger and differentiated given the massive cross-sell potential, nationwide footprint, strengthened balance sheet, and brand. Moving forward, we will be even better positioned to provide millions of drivers with fairer, more customized insurance based on their own driving.

Q3 2021 Results, KPIs and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Policies in Force

• Policies in Force as of September 30, 2021 were 95,238, compared to 95,314 at the end of the second quarter of 2021.
  

Premium

• Direct Earned Premium in the third quarter of 2021 was $28.5 million, a 6.7% increase from the prior-year period.
• Average Annual Premium per Policy, defined as Direct Earned Premium divided by the Average Policies in Force for the period, was $1,197 as of September 30, 2021, a 6.1% increase compared to $1,128 on September 30, 2020, due to more miles driven on a year-over-year basis.
• Premium Run-Rate, defined as ending Policies in Force multiplied by Average Annual Premium per Policy, was $114.0 million as of September 30, 2021, a 9.5% increase compared to $104.1 million on September 30, 2020.
  

Retention

• As of September 30, 2021, one-year new customer retention was 65% for policies that completed their second term in the third quarter of 2021. We define retention as the percentage of new customers who remain with us after their first two policy terms, inclusive of all cancellation reasons.
• The average policy life expectancy for a new customer was 3 years as of the end of the third quarter of 2021.

GAAP Gross Margin

• Third quarter of 2021 GAAP Gross Margin was (20.0)%, compared to (41.3)% in the third quarter of 2020, primarily due to higher revenue in the third quarter of 2021, partially offset by reinsurance coverage on losses in the third quarter of 2020 combined with both increased frequency and severity of losses as well as claims related to Hurricane Ida in the third quarter of 2021.
• GAAP Gross Margin includes the effects of reinsurance, which increases the measure’s volatility, and may not accurately reflect the company’s underlying business or operations.

Accident Quarter Loss Ratio and Contribution Profit/Margin

• Our Accident Quarter Loss Ratio was 81.6% in the third quarter of 2021, compared to 56.7% in the prior-year period, resulting from an increase in claims severity observed industry-wide and bodily injury frequency as well as claims related to Hurricane Ida; partially offset by the higher earned premium from our per-mile pricing model. Accident Quarter Loss Ratio excluding catastrophe losses was 77.2% excluding claims related to Hurricane Ida.
• Our Accident Quarter Loss Adjustment Expense Ratio was 17.3% in the third quarter of 2021, compared to 8.8% for the prior-year period.
• Servicing Expenses in the third quarter of 2021 were $3.7 million, or 12.9% of Direct Earned Premium, compared to $3.8 million, or 14.2% of Direct Earned Premium, in the prior-year period. The lower Servicing Expenses as a percentage of Direct Earned Premium was primarily due to reduced bad debt expenses.
• Accident Quarter Contribution Loss in the third quarter of 2021 was $3.0 million, compared to Accident Quarter Contribution Profit of $6.2 million in the prior-year period. Accident Quarter Contribution Margin was (10.4)%, compared to 22.6% in the third quarter of 2020. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the results of prior period development on loss and loss adjustment expenses.
• We had $0.9 million of favorable prior period loss development in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $1.5 million of unfavorable prior period loss development in the third quarter of 2020.
• Contribution Loss in the third quarter of 2021 was $2.1 million, compared to Contribution Profit of $4.7 million in the prior-year period.

Enterprise Software Revenue

• Total enterprise software revenue was $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $1.1 million in the prior-year period.
• Our primary KPI for Metromile Enterprise is recurring software revenue, and we ended the third quarter of 2021 with $4.2 million of booked annual recurring revenue, excluding any benefit of a Metromile Insurance relationship with Metromile Enterprise.

Operating Expense (R&D, G&A and Enterprise Costs)

• Total operating expense, which excludes loss, loss adjustment expenses, marketing and sales, and variable costs associated with servicing policies, was $16.4 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $8.6 million in the prior-year period, driven primarily by an increase staffing to support our growth initiatives and increased overhead costs related to our transition to a public company.
  

Acquisition Expense

• Total marketing, sales, underwriting, and device costs were $10.8 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to $1.9 million in the prior-year period when marketing had been significantly reduced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  

Reinsurance

• Effective as of April 30, 2021, the Company commuted 100% of its outstanding reinsurance agreements.
  

Cash

• Cash and cash equivalents totaled $159.2 million on September 30, 2021.
