Mitch Rubin's questions to EverQuote Inc (EVER) leadership • Q4 2024
Question
Mitch Rubin, on behalf of Greg Peters, inquired about the 2025 free cash flow outlook and the impact of the vacated FCC rule on cash operating expenses.
Answer
CFO Joseph Sanborn stated that adjusted EBITDA remains a good proxy for operating cash flow and expects this to continue in 2025. He clarified the FCC rule change does not directly impact cash operating expenses, which are expected to increase modestly in the second half of the year to fund strategic investments while maintaining current EBITDA margin levels.
