Clover Health Investments, Corp. (NASDAQ: CLOV) ("Clover," "Clover Health" or the "Company"), a physician enablement company committed to bringing access to great healthcare to everyone on Medicare, today reported financial results for the first quarter 2023. Management will host a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss its operating results and other business highlights.

For the first quarter 2023, the Company reported revenue of $527.8 million and net loss of $72.6 million. Compared to the first quarter 2022, Insurance revenue grew by 14% to $317.1 million, and MCR improved to 86.6% from 96.4%. As planned, Non-Insurance revenue declined by 65% to $205.8 million, and MCR improved to 96.1% from 99.8%. Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter 2023 improved by $40.4 million to $(30.5) million compared to the first quarter 2022 of $(70.9) million.

“We are off to a fantastic start for 2023, and our first quarter results demonstrate strong momentum to build upon throughout the year,” said Clover Health CEO Andrew Toy. “I am particularly proud of our continued Insurance revenue growth and significantly improved MCR. In addition, Clover Assistant continues to drive value across our entire organization through its ability to help physicians with the early identification and care management of chronic diseases. I am also especially pleased that, based on our strong start to 2023, we are already able to improve our full year 2023 guidance for both the Insurance segment and consolidated Clover Health.”

“Our first quarter results demonstrate the rapid, positive strides we have made on our path towards profitability,” said Clover Health CFO Scott Leffler. “During the first quarter, our Insurance segment delivered meaningful revenue growth while improving its MCR materially by nearly 1,000 basis points. These improvements are reflective of actions we have taken as part of our more balanced approach to profitability over growth. Similarly, our Non-Insurance business performance was reflective of that segment’s previously disclosed strategic focus to drive profitability by partnering with a narrower group of participating providers. Finally, we believe our liquidity position is sufficient for our expected 2023 operating needs."

Key Company highlights are as follows:

Dollars in Millions   Q1'23   Q1'22
Total revenue   $ 527.8     $ 874.4  
Insurance revenue   $ 317.1     $ 278.2  
Non-Insurance revenue   $ 205.8     $ 594.9  
Insurance MCR     86.6 %     96.4 %
Non-Insurance MCR     96.1       99.8  
Salaries and benefits plus General and administrative expenses ("SG&A") (1)   $ 129.4     $ 126.8  
Adjusted Salaries and benefits plus General and administrative expenses ("Adjusted SG&A") (non-GAAP) (1)(2)(3)(4)     85.7       83.6  
Net loss     (72.6 )     (75.5 )
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) (3)(4)     (30.5 )     (70.9 )

(1) Salaries and benefits plus General and administrative expenses ("SG&A") is the sum of Salaries and benefits plus General and administrative expenses presented as the GAAP measure in the consolidated financial statements.(2) Beginning with the third quarter of 2022, we updated the name of our Adjusted Operating Expenses (non-GAAP) metric to Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP). Please refer to footnote 4 for the updates to Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) beginning in the first quarter of 2023.(3) Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) to SG&A and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to Net loss, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are provided in the tables immediately following the consolidated financial statements below. Additional information about the Company's non-GAAP financial measures can be found under the caption "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below and in Appendix A.(4) Beginning in the first quarter 2023, we updated our definition and presentation of Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) to exclude restructuring costs and non-recurring legal expenses and settlements. Restructuring costs and non-recurring legal expenses and settlements are now being excluded because management believes that restructuring costs and non-recurring legal expenses and settlements do not reflect the Company's underlying fundamentals and operating expenses relating to its core businesses or its actual recurring cash expense. The prior period figure has been revised to conform to the updated definition and presentation. For additional information, see the definitions of "Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)" and “Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP)” in Appendix A.

Financial OutlookFor full-year 2023, Clover Health is providing its guidance as follows:

  • Insurance revenue is expected to be in the range of $1.18 billion to $1.23 billion in 2023, a growth rate of 9% - 13% as compared to full year 2022 Insurance revenue.
  • Insurance MCR is expected to be in the range of 87% - 89% in 2023.
  • Non-Insurance revenue is expected to be in the range of $0.75 billion to $0.80 billion in 2023.
  • Non-Insurance MCR is expected to be in the range of 98% - 100% in 2023.
  • Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP)(1) is expected to be between $315 million and $325 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP)(1) is expected to be between ($125 million) and ($175 million).

(1) Reconciliations of projected Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) to projected SG&A, and projected Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to Net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are not provided because Stock-based compensation expense, which is excluded from Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP), cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time without unreasonable efforts. Additional information about the Company's non-GAAP financial measures can be found under the caption "About Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below and in Appendix A.

CLOVER HEALTH INVESTMENTS, CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIESAppendix AExplanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP Definitions

Adjusted EBITDA - A non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as net loss before interest expense, depreciation and amortization, gain on investment, stock-based compensation expense, premium deficiency reserve benefit, restructuring costs, non-recurring legal expenses and settlements, expenses attributable to Seek, and expenses attributable to Character Biosciences, Inc. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by our management team and the board of directors to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operating plans. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the amounts eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors and others useful information to understand and evaluate our operating results in the same manner as our management and our board of directors.

Adjusted SG&A - A non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as total SG&A less stock-based compensation expense, less activity attributable to restructuring costs, less non-recurring legal expenses and settlements, less expenses attributable to Seek Insurance Services, Inc., less expenses attributable to Character Biosciences, Inc. We believe that Adjusted SG&A provides management, investors, and others a useful view of our operating spend as it excludes non-cash, Stock-based compensation and expenses related to investments that management believes do not reflect the Company's core operating expenses. We believe that Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenue is useful to management, investors, and others because it allows us to measure our operational leverage as revenue scales. Beginning with the third quarter of 2022, we updated the name of our Adjusted operating expenses (non-GAAP) metric to Adjusted SG&A (non-GAAP).
