    Second quarter Insurance (Medicare Advantage) Medical Care Ratio ("MCR") of 92.1% shows significant improvement year-over-year

    FRANKLIN, Tenn., Aug. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clover Health Investments, Corp. (NASDAQ: CLOV) ("Clover," "Clover Health" or the "Company"), a physician enablement company committed to improving health equity for seniors, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2022. Management will host a conference call today at 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss its operating results and other business highlights.

    "We continue to build upon our strong start to 2022 with another quarter of significant year-over-year revenue and membership growth in both our Insurance and Non-Insurance business lines," said Clover Health CEO Vivek Garipalli. "Our focus on building a sustainable, intelligent growth engine has led to a reduction in MCRs and improvement in operational efficiencies which we believe is the foundation of our progress toward profitability."

    Andrew Toy, President of Clover Health, added, "Our technology platform is moving from strength to strength as Clover Assistant penetration continues to show significant growth. We believe there is tremendous opportunity and potential to continue iterating and advancing Clover Assistant's clinical capabilities. We believe each improvement supports physicians in catching and treating conditions earlier to increase the health and well-being of their patients while simultaneously reducing costs for the healthcare system."

    Key Company highlights are as follows:

    Dollars in Millions Q2'22 Q2'21
    Total revenue $846.7  $412.5 
    Insurance MCR  92.1%  111.0%
    Non-Insurance MCR  106.0   111.8 
    Salaries and benefits plus general and administrative expenses $117.5  $107.8 
    Adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP)(1)  75.4   61.1 
    Net loss  (104.2)  (317.6)
    Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)(1)  (87.5)  (107.1)

    (1) Adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP) and adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP) to the sum of salaries and benefits plus general and administrative expenses 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.


    Lives under Clover Management

      June 30, 2022   June 30, 2021 
    Insurance members 86,629   66,566 
    Non-Insurance beneficiaries 168,777   62,025 
    Total Lives under Clover Management 255,406   128,591 


    Financial Outlook

    "The second quarter built upon the advancements achieved during the beginning of 2022, resulting in an Insurance MCR of 92.1%, down significantly year-over year. Though elevated from last quarter due to unfavorable prior period development and traditional industry seasonality, Non-Insurance MCR saw a nearly 600 bps year-over-year improvement," said Mr. Toy. "Importantly, we believe we are on track to sustain this positive trajectory to drive Insurance MCR improvement and positive Non-Insurance margin contribution, while lowering operating expenses as a percentage of revenue. This is supported by Clover Assistant's growing technology moat around our business, which we believe is the key to us delivering financial sustainability while maintaining industry leading growth."

    For full-year 2022, Clover Health is reaffirming its previously provided guidance and commentary:

    • Insurance membership is expected to average 84,000 - 85,000, a growth rate of 26% - 27% as compared to the 2021 average. For the Non-Insurance business, the Company expects the average number of aligned beneficiaries to be 160,000 - 165,000, compared to an average of 62,125 in 2021.
    • Total revenues are expected to be in the range of $3.0 billion to $3.4 billion. This includes projected Insurance revenue of $1.0 billion to $1.1 billion and Non-Insurance revenue of $2.0 billion to $2.3 billion.
    • Insurance MCR is expected to be in the range of 95% - 99%. This improvement versus 2021 is expected to be driven by a combination of expected operational efficiencies, increased risk scores, and slightly lower COVID-19 costs. Non-Insurance MCR is also expected to improve versus 2021 levels. Any significant developments related to COVID-19 and/or historical utilization trends could impact these expectations.
    • Adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP)(1) are expected to be between $330 million and $345 million.
    • Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue (Non-GAAP)(1) is expected to be 10% - 12% compared to 18% in 2021.

    (1) Reconciliations of projected adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP) to projected salaries and benefits plus general and administrative expenses, and of projected adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue (Non-GAAP) to projected salaries and benefits plus general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are not provided because stock-based compensation expense, which is excluded from adjusted operating expenses (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.

    Leadership Update

    Year to date, the Company has significantly bolstered its management team, making several key hires. In addition to hiring a Chief Technology Officer, Conrad Wai, and a General Counsel, Joseph Martin, during the first quarter of the year, Clover Health announced the appointment of Aric Sharp (CEO of Value Based Care) and Scott Leffler (Chief Financial Officer) during the second quarter of 2022.

    Appendix A
    Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Items

    Non-GAAP Adjustments

    We believe it is useful to investors for our presentation within this document of financial measures on a non-GAAP basis to exclude the below items. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of these amounts provides useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. These key measures are used by our management 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 addition, we believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance.

    Amortization of notes and securities discount - We report non-convertible notes and convertible securities at carrying value, net of discount. We account for convertible securities in accordance with accounting guidance for debt with conversion and other options, after determining whether embedded conversion options should be bifurcated from their host instruments.

    Change in fair value of warrants payable - The fair value of warrant liabilities is estimated using a valuation method based on the level of instrument, where the values of various instruments are estimated based on an analysis of future values, assuming various future outcomes.

    Depreciation and amortization - Depreciation and amortization consists of all depreciation and amortization expenses associated with our property and equipment. Depreciation includes expenses associated with property and equipment. Amortization includes expenses associated with leasehold improvements.

    Expenses attributable to Seek Insurance Services Inc. and Character Biosciences, Inc. - This consists of expenses incurred by the Company in the applicable period attributable to Character Biosciences, Inc. (f/k/a Clover Therapeutics Company) before the Company began accounting for its interest in this entity using the equity method of accounting in the first quarter of 2022, and Seek Insurance Services Inc. These expenses are excluded from adjusted operating expenses (Non-GAAP) and adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) because management believes they are not reflective of the Company's core businesses or its actual recurring cash expense and therefore do not appropriately reflect the Company's underlying fundamentals.

    Loss (gain) on investment - This consists of the loss or gain recorded during the applicable period by the Company on its minority equity interest in Character Biosciences, Inc. after the Company began accounting for its interest in this entity using the equity method of accounting in the first quarter of 2022.

    Interest expense - Interest expense consists mostly of interest expense associated with previously outstanding non-convertible notes under our term loan facility that was terminated in the second quarter of 2021.

    Premium deficiency reserve expense (benefit) – This consists of a reserve established to the extent that the sum of expected future costs, claim adjustment expenses, and maintenance costs exceeds related future premiums under contracts without consideration of investment income. We assess the profitability of our contracts with CMS to identify those contracts where current operating results or forecasts indicate probable future losses. Premium deficiency reserve expense (benefit) is recognized in the period in which the losses are identified.

    Stock-based compensation expense – This consists of expenses for stock-based payment awards granted to employees and non-employees.

    Non-GAAP Definitions

    Adjusted EBITDA - A non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as net loss before interest expense, amortization of notes and securities discount, depreciation and amortization, change in fair value of warrants payable, (gain) loss on investment, stock-based compensation expense, premium deficiency reserve expense (benefit), and expenses attributable to Character Biosciences, Inc. before the Company began accounting for its interest in this entity using the equity method of accounting in the first quarter of 2022, and Seek Insurance Services 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 operating expenses - A non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as salaries and benefits plus general and administrative expenses, less stock-based compensation expense and expenses attributable to Character Biosciences, Inc. before the Company began accounting for its interest in this entity using the equity method of accounting in the first quarter of 2022, and Seek Insurance Services Inc. We believe that adjusted operating expenses 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 operating expenses as a percentage of revenue is useful to management, investors, and others because it allows us to measure our operational leverage as revenue scales.

    Definitions of Other Items

    Non-Insurance medical care ratio - We calculate our Non-Insurance medical care ratio (MCR) by dividing net medical claims incurred in connection with our Non-Insurance operations by Non-Insurance revenue in a given period. We believe our Non-Insurance MCR is an indicator of our gross profitability and our ability to capture and analyze data over time to generate actionable insights for returning beneficiaries to improve care and reduce medical expenses.

    Lives under Clover Management - Consists of our (i) Insurance members and (ii) Original Medicare beneficiaries aligned to the Company's Direct Contracting Entity (DCE) via attribution to a DCE-participating provider through alignment based on claims data or by beneficiary election through voluntarily alignment, in connection with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' Global and Professional Direct Contracting Model, which will transition to the ACO Reach model in 2023. We believe that Lives under Clover Management is a useful measure of the size of the beneficiary population managed by the Company.

    Insurance medical care ratio, gross and net - We calculate our Insurance medical care ratio (MCR) by dividing total net medical claims incurred by premiums earned, in each case on a gross or net basis, as the case may be, in a given period. We believe our MCR is an indicator of our gross profit for our Medicare Advantage plans and the ability of our Clover Assistant platform to capture and analyze data over time to generate actionable insights for returning members to improve care and reduce medical expenses.
