JOHNS CREEK, GA – May 17, 2021 – Ebix, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBIX), a leading international supplier of On-Demand software and E-commerce services to the insurance, financial, e-governance and healthcare industries today announced the following results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021:

Ebix will host a conference call to review its results today at 11:00 a.m. EDT (details below).

“These have been difficult times, with COVID-19 resulting in increased headwinds on our businesses in Q1 2021. Despite these negative impacts and the traditional Q1 seasonal low point for consulting business post the holidays, the Company is still reporting Q1 2021 non-GAAP EPS of $0.84, with revenue growth of 110% year over year.” Robin Raina, President & CEO, Ebix Inc. said. “We believe that in times like this, our recurring revenue base, product diversity and customer stickiness strength gives us an edge over our competitors in the industries in which we operate.”

Ebix delivered the following results for the first quarter of 2021:

Revenue: Q1 2021 revenue increased 110% to $290 million compared to $137.9 million in Q1 2020 and increased 31% over Q4 2020 revenue of $222.1 million. Excluding revenues from the foreign exchange, travel, e-learning and remittance businesses that were impacted the most by COVID-19, Q1 2021 revenues grew 187% as compared to Q1 2020.

Exchanges, including the EbixCash and our worldwide insurance exchanges, continued to be Ebix’s largest channel, accounting for 95% of Q1 2021 revenues.

Operating Income and Operating Cash: GAAP Operating income for Q1 2021 of $31.2 million increased 12% sequentially, while declining 9% year-over-year as compared to $34.3 million in Q1 2020, primarily due to the impact of COVID-19. Non-GAAP operating income for Q1 2021 was $35.6 million.

Cash generated from operations in Q1 2021 was $8.6 million, as compared to $29.6 million in Q1 2020. During Q1 2021 the Company paid approximately $10 million in global taxes, primarily related to statutory taxes in India that were due. These taxes were accrued for at December 31, 2020 and paid in Q1 2021. By comparison, in Q1 2020, the Company paid approximately $1.1 million in global taxes.

Earnings per Share: Q1 2021 GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 9% sequentially, while declining 13% to $0.70 from $0.81 in Q1 2020. The year-over-year decline is due to the effect of COVID-19 on the Q1 2021 results, while Q1 2020 results were not impacted by COVID-19 until the last few weeks of March 2020.

Excluding the one-time, non-recurring items, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for Q1 2021 was $0.84

Net Income: Q1 2021 GAAP net income decreased 13% to $21.6 million compared to $24.7 million in Q1 2020. The Q1 2021 non-GAAP net income was at $25.7 million after excluding certain non-recurring items.

Q2 2021 Diluted Share Count: As of today, Ebix expects its diluted share count for Q2 2021 to be approximately 30.8 million.

Dividend: Ebix paid its regular quarterly dividend of $0.075 per share in Q1 2021 for a total cost of $2.3 million.

Ebix Chairman, President and CEO Robin Raina said, “Our first quarter revenues and operating income are traditionally lower than the fourth quarter of the preceding year, primarily because of our Continuing Medical Education (CME) business having a seasonal increase in the fourth quarter. Q1 2021 was no different with CME revenues decreasing by approximately $4 million, as compared to Q4 2020. In spite of that headwind and the increased effect of COVID-19 in Q1 2021 on many of our businesses, we still managed to grow our overall revenues 31% sequentially and 110% year over year in Q1 of 2021. I am pleased that our operating margin for the Company, excluding the lower margin payment solutions business, was strong at 35% in the first quarter of 2021.”

Steve Hamil, EVP and Global CFO said, “Despite the continued impact of COVID-19 on our business and worsening COVID-19 conditions in India recently, Ebix maintains a strong liquidity position, with over $130 million of cash, short-term investments and restricted cash on the balance sheet. During Q1 2021 the Company repaid over $10 million of debt, paid approximately $10 million in global taxes and continued its consistent dividend policy that absorbed $2.3 million of capital during the quarter. Finally, our global accounting and finance team operated under severely tight timelines given that we filed our 10-K less than three weeks ago, and their dedicated commitment is indicative of the type of people we have throughout the Ebix global footprint. Many of our teammates in India have shown incredible commitment over the past few weeks in light of the horrific impacts of COVID-19 on our employees and their friends and families in India. We are grateful for their service to Ebix and we mourn the loss of Ebix family members as a result of this pandemic.”

Q1 2021

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Metrics

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP Earnings per share. Non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS from operations exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation,as well as other non-cash items and certain non-recurring expenses that are not associated with our ongoing operating business activities. Non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP EPS from operations also exclude the effect of any restructuring, acquisition, integration & other expenses, legal expenses associated with such acquisitions or legal expenses associated with non-operating activities, any one-time tax benefits, and any foreign currency effects of intercompany activities that have no impact on our ongoing operating business.

Ebix believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Ebix’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures and other metrics to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis, for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures and other metrics to investors.

Management of the Company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Ebix urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results, including the financial tables at the end of this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
