CHANTILLY, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Intersections Inc. (NASDAQ: INTX) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Consolidated revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was $52.0 million, compared to $64.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was $(516) thousand, compared to $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Net (loss) for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was $(24.8) million, compared to $(2.0) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. As described further below, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $7.4 million and $16.0 million related to the remeasurement of its investment in White Sky, Inc. and the establishment of a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets, respectively, in the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $107.5 million, compared to $130.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $965 thousand, compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $(26.1) million, compared to $(4.8) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Diluted (loss) per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $(1.36), compared to $(0.26) for the six months ended June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, we had a cash balance of $9.6 million, and no debt outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
“Our second quarter earnings were negatively impacted by the non-cash items described above. Our plan to build our business around the Identity Guard® platform for protection of personal information, and our Voyce™ platform for animal health and wellness monitoring is progressing nicely. Our Identity Guard® subscriber base is up 11% since December 2014 and revenue is up 11.6% compared to the first six months of 2014. We also acquired the assets of White Sky, Inc., with which we have had a long term relationship through our investment and commercial relationship, and have begun the integration of their product suite with the Identity Guard® platform,” commented Michael Stanfield, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Intersections. Mr. Stanfield further noted that, “We also announced the launch of VoycePro™, our monitoring service for veterinarians, and began providing the service in August 2015. I am looking forward to presenting more about our strategy and outlook on our mid-year business update call scheduled for August 25, 2015.”
Other Items:
- The Company is pleased to bring the previously reported Civil Investigative Demand and other information requests from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to closure through the entry of a consent order on July 6, 2015. As a result of the consent order, a $600 thousand charge before income taxes was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2015.
- Revenue and profitability declines continue to be principally caused by the declining subscriber base acquired through U.S. financial institution clients. These clients ceased marketing add-on products as early as 2012, and since then continue to cancel certain subscriber portfolios. Revenue from these subscribers for the second quarter was $28.8 million with a base of approximately 900 thousand subscribers as of June 30, 2015.
- As a consequence of the Company’s declining profitability, the Company recorded a $16.0 million non-cash charge in its income tax expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2015 to establish a valuation allowance on substantially all of its net deferred tax assets. The timing of realization of these deferred tax assets will be dependent on the timing of the Company’s future profitability.
- The consolidated (loss) from operations in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 includes approximately $(4.5) million from our Pet Health Monitoring segment, which was funded from available cash on hand, compared to $(3.2) million in the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
- On June 26, 2015, we acquired substantially all of the net assets of White Sky, Inc., in which we previously held an equity interest that was recorded as a long-term, cost method investment. This acquisition provides opportunities to expand our product integration and development, marketing and operational efficiencies. Based upon the estimated fair value of the business prior to the acquisition, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $7.4 million before income taxes in the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
- Consolidated cash flows provided by operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $1.4 million, compared to cash flows (used in) operations of $(4.1) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Consolidated cash flows provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $2.6 million, compared to cash flows provided by operations of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

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 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, as well as dividend equivalent cash payments to restricted stock unit (“RSU”) holders. 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 before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges represents consolidated loss before income taxes plus share related compensation, non-cash impairment of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, depreciation and amortization, interest expense and other (income) expense. We believe that the consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges calculation provides useful information to investors because they are indicators of our operating performance. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges 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 before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges to evaluate the operating performance of the company and to make compensation determinations. |
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 before share related compensation 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 before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges 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 consolidated loss before income taxes to consolidated adjusted EBITDA before share related compensation and non-cash impairment charges, as defined for the previous six quarters and year-to-date through June 30, 2014 and 2015. In managing our business, we analyze our performance quarterly on a consolidated income (loss) before income tax basis. |
