eHealth beats internal Q1 targets with $9M adjusted EBITDA despite 22% revenue decline, cuts $30M in costs

eHealth reported first-quarter revenue of $88 million, a GAAP net loss of $4.7 million and adjusted EBITDA of $9 million, beating internal expectations despite a 22% year-over-year revenue decline. The drop reflected deliberate reductions in marketing spend, which fell 38% as the company focused on higher-performing channels. Medicare lifetime values increased across all products, with Prescription Drug Plans up 78%, Medicare Supplement up 19%, and Medicare Advantage up 3%. The Medicare lifetime value-to-customer acquisition cost ratio improved to 1.4x. Management announced $30 million in targeted fixed cost savings for 2026 through headcount reductions and vendor consolidation. The company is launching a "lifetime advisory" model and new ancillary products, including final expense insurance introduced in April, calling 2026 an "intentional bridge year" before returning to revenue growth in 2027.

eHealth price target cut to $3 from $9 by RBC on weaker 2026 revenue outlook

RBC Capital has slashed eHealth's price target to $3 from $9, maintaining a Sector Perform rating, citing a softer 2026 outlook despite strong fourth-quarter results. The downgrade stems from conservative forecasts for the next annual enrollment cycle and reduced marketing investment from a major Medicare Advantage insurer. eHealth reported fourth-quarter revenue of $326.2 million, up 4% year-over-year, driven by better-than-expected Medicare performance. Full-year revenue reached $554 million, also up 4%. However, GAAP net income fell to $87.2 million from $97.5 million due to a higher tax rate, whilst adjusted EBITDA rose 10% to $132.9 million. The company projects 2026 revenue between $405 million and $445 million. eHealth operates an online marketplace for Medicare and individual health insurance plans.
