Exhibit 99.1
EverQuote Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial Results
| Fourth Quarter Revenue of $55.7 million |
| Fourth Quarter Variable Marketing Margin of $20.7 million |
| Full Year Revenue of $287.9 million |
| Full Year Variable Marketing Margin of $100.3 million |
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) EverQuote, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVER), a leading online insurance marketplace, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.
2023 was a transformative year for EverQuote. We returned to our roots as a capital efficient digital insurance marketplace, said Jayme Mendal, CEO of EverQuote. We maintained positive Adjusted EBITDA for the year, improved our balance sheet, and our team managed effectively through historically low carrier demand.
I am pleased with our outperformance in the fourth quarter, as we exceeded guidance across all three of our primary financial metrics of revenue, Variable Marketing Margin, or VMM, and Adjusted EBITDA. We entered 2024 with positive momentum, a focused team, streamlined operations, and recent signs of an improving auto carrier environment, concluded Mr. Mendal.
In 2024, we will continue to be very disciplined in managing expenses and driving incremental operating leverage in the business, said Joseph Sanborn, CFO of EverQuote. We are on track to achieve our goal of restoring consistent positive quarterly cash flow from operations in the first half of this year, followed by a return to our pre-downturn Adjusted EBITDA margins in 2024.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Highlights:
(Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are relative to the fourth quarter of 2022. EverQuote exited the health insurance vertical at the end of the second quarter of 2023. Revenue in our health insurance vertical was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.)
| Total revenue of $55.7 million, a decrease of 37%. |
| Automotive insurance vertical revenue of $45.0 million, a decrease of 33%. |
| Revenue from home and renters insurance vertical of $9.8 million, an increase of 48%. |
| VMM of $20.7 million, representing 37% of total revenue, compared to 33%. |
| GAAP net loss improved to a loss of $6.3 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $8.5 million. |
| Adjusted EBITDA was $(0.9) million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million. |
| Ended the quarter with $38.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of 23% from $30.8 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022. |
Full Year 2023 Highlights:
(All comparisons are relative to the full year of 2022, which included $38.7 million revenue in our health insurance vertical):
| Total revenue of $287.9 million (or $272.9 million excluding revenues from our health insurance vertical, which we exited in June 2023), a decrease of 29%. |
| Automotive insurance vertical revenue of $227.5 million, a decrease of 30%. |
| Revenue from home and renters insurance vertical of $40.9 million, an increase of 28%. |
| VMM of $100.3 million, representing 35% of total revenue, compared to 32%. |
| GAAP net loss increased to $51.3 million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $24.4 million. The net loss for 2023 includes $23.6 million of restructuring and other charges related to the sale of our health insurance vertical assets and workforce reduction. |
| Adjusted EBITDA was $0.5 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $5.9 million. |
First Quarter 2024 Outlook
(Revenue in our health insurance vertical was $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2023):
| Revenue of $78.0 - $82.0 million. |
| Variable Marketing Margin of $26.0 - $28.0 million. |
| Adjusted EBITDA of $3.0 - $5.0 million. |
With respect to the Companys expectations under First Quarter 2024 Outlook above, the Company has not reconciled the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP measure net income (loss) in this press release because the Company does not provide guidance for stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlement expense, one-time severance charges, interest income, and income taxes on a consistent basis as the Company is unable to quantify these amounts without unreasonable efforts, which would be required to include a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss). In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.
Conference Call and Webcast Information
EverQuote will host a conference call and live webcast to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time today, February 26, 2024.

Safe Harbor Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans, and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as may, should, expects, might, plans, anticipates, could, intends, target, projects, contemplates, believes, estimates, predicts, potential, seek, would or continue, or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this press release are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition liquidity and results of operations. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in our annual report on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our current reports on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from time to time. Additional information will also be set forth in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which will be filed with the SEC. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely on
these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. While we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, whether as a result of any new information, future events, or otherwise, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. Some of the key factors that could cause actual results to differ include: (1) our dependence on revenue from the property and casualty insurance industries, and specifically automotive insurance, and exposure to risks related to those industries; (2) our dependence on our relationships with insurance providers with no long-term minimum financial commitments; (3) our reliance on a small number of insurance providers for a significant portion of our revenue; (4) our dependence on third-party media sources for a significant portion of visitors to our websites and marketplace; (5) our ability to attract consumers searching for insurance to our websites and marketplace through Internet search engines, display advertising, social media, content-based online advertising and other online sources; (6) any limitations restricting our ability to market to users or collect and use data derived from user activities; (7) risks related to cybersecurity incidents or other network disruptions; (8) risks related to the use of artificial intelligence; (9) our ability to develop new and enhanced products and services to attract and retain consumers and insurance providers, and to successfully monetize them; (10) the impact of competition in our industry and innovation by our competitors; (11) our ability to hire and retain necessary qualified employees to expand our operations; (12) our ability to stay abreast of and comply with new or modified laws and regulations that currently apply or become applicable to our business, including with respect to the insurance industry, telemarketing restrictions and data privacy requirements; (13) our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and maintain and build our brand; (14) our future financial performance, including our expectations regarding our revenue, cost of revenue, variable marketing margin, operating expenses, cash flows and ability to achieve, and maintain, future profitability; (15) our ability to properly collect, process, store, share, disclose and use consumer information and other data;; and (16) the future trading prices of our Class A common stock.

(1) | Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Please see EverQuote, Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP below for more information. |
To supplement the Companys financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP and to provide investors with additional information regarding EverQuotes financial results, the Company has presented Adjusted. EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense; depreciation and amortization expense; restructuring and other charges; acquisition-related costs; interest income; and income taxes. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). The Company monitors and presents Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by management and the board of directors to understand and evaluate operating performance, to establish budgets and to develop operational goals for managing EverQuotes business. In particular, the Company believes that excluding the impact of these items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of EverQuotes core operating performance.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate EverQuotes operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in EverQuotes business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the items that the Company excludes in the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, the Company believes that this financial measure provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating EverQuotes operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of the Companys past performance and future prospects.
The Companys non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, which could reduce the usefulness of the Companys non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “might,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “seek,” “would” or “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition liquidity and results of operations. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur.

Appendix
Key Metrics Definitions We define variable marketing margin, or VMM, as revenue, as reported in our consolidated statements of operations and Variable comprehensive income (loss), less advertising costs (a component of sales and marketing expense, as reported in our statements of operations and comprehensive income loss). We use VMM to measure the efficiency of individual advertising and consumer Marketing acquisition sources and to make trade-off decisions to manage our return on advertising. We do not use VMM as a measure of Margin profitability. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related costs, legal settlement expense, one-time severance Adjusted charges, interest income and the provision for (benefit from) income taxes. We monitor & present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management & board of directors to understand & evaluate our operating performance, to establish EBITDA budgets & to develop operational goals for managing our business. 16
