Intersections Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter 2016 Results And Announces Year-End Business Update Call

  • Largest independent operator in the Identity Theft Monitoring space in the U.S. and Canada
  • Strategic refocus only on identity and privacy protection services
  • Identity Guard® subscriber base increased to 380 thousand subscribers
  • Voyce primary operations were ceased in December 2016
  • Captira and Habits at Work to be sold off in first half of 2017

CHANTILLY, Va.--()--Intersections Inc. (NASDAQ: INTX) today announced financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.

“We made significant advances in our Identity Guard® product portfolio in 2016, initially with the release of a beta version of our new flagship product at the IBM World of Watson Conference on October 24, 2016 and thereafter with further development and testing,” said Johan Roets, Chief Executive Officer. “These actions help to ensure that by the summer of 2017, the product will be best-in-class to address three strategic objectives: 1) knowing that a consumer has an identity theft problem earlier is better than knowing later; 2) taking preventative measures to limit one’s risk profile and digital footprint can and will reduce the risk of identity theft; and 3) that everyone’s risk profile is unique and therefore must receive customized advice and tools on how to protect themselves. Our innovation on the IBM Watson technology platform will allow us to address the 88% of data in the world that is stored in unstructured format, but which could contain valuable information about our subscribers’ and their families’ personal information and risks thereto. No one else in the Identity Theft Monitoring space currently has this capability. We have also made significant investments in business development resources in the U.S. in order to avail ourselves of new market opportunities. In Canada, our new distribution partner, Sigma Loyalty Group, is solely dedicated to helping us grow the Canadian market in new segments and win back business lost in existing segments.

“We are very pleased to be entering 2017 with a complete focus on personal information security for consumers and families, as threats have never been greater,” Mr. Roets continued. “The decision to wind down Voyce operations and exit other non-core businesses not only allows us to focus our resources and leverage our core competencies in identity and personal information security, but also to provide an opportunity to significantly improve our future financial results compared to 2016. The competitive landscape in our industry in the U.S. and Canada has seen very telling changes in 2016. Experian acquired CS Identity (which had approximately $120 million of revenue in 2016) in April 2016 for $360 million. Further, Symantec acquired LifeLock (which had approximately $660 million of revenue in 2016) in September 2016 for $2.3 billion. Not only do these acquisitions change the competitive landscape for us, they also demonstrate the potential value that Intersections Inc. can create with a focused growth business in the Identity Theft Monitoring space. The two acquisitions leave Intersections Inc. as the largest independent identity theft monitoring provider in the U.S., with personal information services revenue in 2016 of $164 million and a market capitalization of approximately $93 million (as of March 24, 2017).”

Consolidated revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $42.2 million, compared to $47.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Loss before income taxes for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $(12.6) million, compared to $(18.9) million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA (loss) before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”) for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $(1.8) million, compared to $(5.7) million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Diluted loss per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $(0.54), compared to $(0.68) for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $175.7 million, compared to $203.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Loss before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(30.5) million, compared to $(38.4) million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(6.6) million, compared to $(8.2) million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(1.31), compared to $(2.26) for the year ended December 31, 2015.

In late 2016, the Board of Directors approved the closure of the Company’s Pet Health Monitoring business, also known as Voyce, which generated a loss before income taxes of $(29.4) million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The discontinuation of Voyce commercial operations will enable the Company’s growth strategy and capital to be directed to the Identity Guard® business. To further the Company’s strategic focus, it also sold the business comprising the Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment in early 2017.

Fourth Quarter Results:

  • Revenue from the Company’s Identity Guard® subscriber base was $13.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 with a base of 380 thousand subscribers as of December 31, 2016, 1.6% higher than as of December 31, 2015.
  • Revenue from the Company’s U.S. financial institution clients was $22.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 with a base of 705 thousand subscribers as of December 31, 2016. The subscriber base decreased by 1.2% per month during the fourth quarter, which the Company believes is representative of normal attrition given the discontinuation of marketing and retention efforts for this population.
  • Core Business (the aggregate of all businesses of Intersections Inc. except for its Pet Health Monitoring, or Voyce, business) income (loss) before income taxes for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $190 thousand compared to $(13.8) million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Core Business Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $3.6 million compared to $(973) thousand for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. As a result of the decision to exit the Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment and the Habits at Work consulting business, we recorded non-cash asset impairments totaling $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2016.
  • Voyce loss before income taxes for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $(12.8) million compared to $(5.1) million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Voyce Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $(5.4) million compared to $(4.7) million for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. As a result of the ceased operations, we recorded non-cash asset impairments totaling $7.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2016.
  • As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a cash balance of $10.9 million, and an outstanding principal balance of $13.4 million under its term loan with Crystal Financial SPV LLC. For additional information, Please see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our most recent Form 10-K.

Year-End Results:

  • Revenue from the Company’s Identity Guard® subscriber base for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $54.5 million compared to $55.6 million for the prior year. Revenue and subscriber growth during the year was negatively impacted by reduced marketing on a year to date basis compared to the prior year, as the Company prepared for the launch of its new product utilizing the IBM Watson platform in the fourth quarter of 2016.
  • Revenue from the Company’s U.S. financial institution clients for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $96.2 million.
  • Core Business (loss) before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(1.1) million compared to $(19.0) million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Core Business Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $13.2 million compared to $9.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • Voyce loss before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(29.4) million compared to $(19.4) million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Voyce Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $(19.8) million compared to $(18.1) million for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The table below includes financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, as well as other financial measures referred to as non-GAAP financial measures. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is presented in a manner consistent with the way management evaluates operating results and which management believes is useful to investors and others. Share related compensation includes non-cash share based compensation. An explanation regarding the company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used by the company to GAAP measures is provided below. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net income (loss) and the other information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management strongly encourages shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents consolidated loss before income taxes plus: share related compensation; non-cash impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets; (gain) loss on disposal of fixed assets; adjustment for surplus and obsolete inventories; depreciation and amortization; and interest (income) expense. We believe that the consolidated Adjusted EBITDA calculation provides useful information to investors because they are indicators of our operating performance, and we use these measures in communications with our board of directors, creditors, investors and others concerning our financial performance. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a basis for investors and analysts to evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and value of companies within our industry. Our Board of Directors and management use consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of the company. In addition, consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in our credit agreement, as amended, with Crystal Financial SPV LLC (“Amended Credit Agreement”) is used to measure covenant compliance.

We provide this information to show the impact of share related compensation on our operating results, as it is excluded from our internal operating and budgeting plans and measurements of financial performance; however, we do consider the dilutive impact to our shareholders when awarding share related compensation and consider both the Black-Scholes value and GAAP value (to the extent applicable) in connection therewith, and value such awards accordingly.

INTERSECTIONS INC.
OTHER DATA, continued
(unaudited)

We do not consider share related compensation charges when we evaluate the performance of our individual business groups or formulate our short and long-term operating plans. Due to its nature, individual managers generally are unable to project the impact of share related compensation and accordingly we do not hold them accountable for the impact of equity award grants. When we consider making share related compensation grants, we primarily take into account the need to attract and retain high quality employees, overall shareholder dilution and the Black-Scholes values of the equity grant to the recipient, rather than the potential accounting charges associated with such grants. For comparability purposes, we believe it is useful to provide a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes share related compensation in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to compare our results to the results of our peer companies because of varying available valuation methodologies and the variety of award types that companies can use under GAAP. Furthermore, the value of share related compensation is determined using a complex formula that incorporates factors, such as market volatility, that are beyond our control. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA when read in conjunction with our reported GAAP results can provide useful supplemental information to our management, to investors and to our lenders regarding financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA has limitations due to the fact it does not include all compensation related expenses. For example, if we only paid cash based compensation as opposed to a portion in share related compensation, the cash compensation expense included in our general and administrative expenses would be higher. We compensate for this limitation by providing information required by GAAP about outstanding share based awards in the footnotes to our financial statements in our SEC filings. We believe equity based compensation is an important element of our compensation program and all forms of share related awards are valued and included as appropriate in our operating results.

The following table reconciles Core Business, Voyce and consolidated income (loss) before income taxes to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, for the previous eight quarters through December 31, 2016. In managing our business, we analyze our performance quarterly on a consolidated income (loss) before income tax basis.

In the second quarter of 2016, we ceased adding other expense (income) to consolidated loss before income taxes as part of our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, to be consistent with the definition of Adjusted EBITDA in our Credit Agreement.

______________________________
(1)   “Core Business” comprises all the business of Intersections Inc. with the exception of its Voyce business.
(2) In the year ended December 31, 2016, we implemented an allocation policy to charge a portion of general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments. The charge is a reasonable estimate of the services provided by our Corporate business unit to support each segment’s operations. For comparability, the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been recast to reflect this allocation.
