What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • Strong top‑line and margin: Revenue $332.9M (+9.5% YoY) with gross margin up to 23.7% (22.5% a year ago); excluding a non‑renewed large client’s transition, core revenue growth was 18% YoY .
  • Record engagement metrics: ART cycles reached 16,938 (+9% YoY), with female utilization 0.48% and clients rising to 542; CFO: “Total revenue… exceeded the top end of our guidance by nearly $8 million driven by improved member engagement” .
  • Raised FY25 and issued Q3 guidance: FY revenue upgraded to $1.235–$1.270B; CEO: “we're pleased to raise our guidance for the year” amid healthy, seasonal activity .

What Went Wrong

  • Margin pressure from investments: Adjusted EBITDA margin dipped to 17.4% (17.9% a year ago), reflecting spend to expand the platform and integrate acquisitions; management expects additional hiring to temper gross margin expansion in 2H .
  • Tax headwinds: Net income growth was partially offset by higher tax provision driven by discrete equity compensation impacts .
  • Transition client churn: The large client did not renew for 2025; Q2 included $17.2M of transition revenue, which ends after June 30—creating a tougher 2H comp despite underlying growth .

Management Commentary

  • CEO: “As the third quarter begins, member activity continues to remain healthy and more consistent with historical seasonal patterns… we’re pleased to raise our guidance for the year” .
  • CFO: “Total revenue… exceeded the top end of our guidance by nearly $8 million driven by the improved member engagement” and “Adjusted EBITDA grew 6%… margin declined modestly… as expected from our investments” .
  • CEO on selling season: “Early commitments are comparable… lives for those early wins are trailing last year due to differences in client demographics… we expect those demographics to normalize” .
  • Strategic initiatives: Benefit Bump integration complete; pelvic floor therapy added; ŌURA partnership; Amazon Health Benefits Connector collaboration to improve benefit discovery/enrollment .

Q&A Highlights

  • Selling season pacing and demographics: Early commitments comparable in count and expected revenue; current mix skews to higher‑utilization industries, explaining revenue per client with fewer lives; pipeline additions accelerated in June/July, now comparable to prior year .
  • Pharmacy vs medical growth: First‑half pharmacy growth lagged due to timing; expected to be close to medical growth for full year .
  • ART cycles/consumption: Q2 cycles per unique at 0.52 at high end of expectations; engagement returning to pre‑2024 seasonal norms .
  • Layoffs impact: No notable change in utilization at large tech clients; engagement normal .
  • New product adoption: Active discussions across new adjacencies (global, leave navigation, menopause); contributions expected to be relatively equal over time rather than concentrated in one module .

Estimates Context

  • Q2 2025 beat: Revenue $332.9M vs $320.1M consensus; Adjusted EPS $0.48 vs $0.428 consensus* .
  • Prior quarters: Q1 2025 revenue $324.0M vs $307.8M consensus; Adjusted EPS $0.48 vs $0.446 consensus* . Q4 2024 revenue $298.4M vs $277.3M consensus; Adjusted EPS $0.42 vs $0.37 consensus* .
    Values retrieved from S&P Global.*

Where estimates may need to adjust:

  • FY25 guidance raised across revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS; consensus trajectories likely to move higher, and Q3 revenue guide ($290–$305M) implies underlying core growth of 14–20% ex the prior client, supporting higher top‑line and margin expectations into 2H despite investment ramp .

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Quarter beat and guide raise are primary catalysts; underlying demand remains healthy and seasonally normal—supports positive estimate revisions near‑term .
  • Mix normalizing and record ART cycles indicate durable utilization trends; pharmacy timing should converge with medical by year‑end .
  • Near‑term margin headwinds from deliberate investments (platform, acquisitions) are modest; expect gross margin expansion vs 2024 but less pronounced in 2H .
  • Distribution and engagement enhancers (Amazon connector, ŌURA data, pelvic floor therapy) broaden funnel and cross‑sell opportunity across women’s health continuum .
  • Transition client contribution ended after Q2; comps will be cleaner, highlighting true core growth (Q3 guide implies 14–20% ex the client) .
  • Liquidity optionality via undrawn $200M revolver with no planned use enhances flexibility for tuck‑ins, channel expansion, or opportunistic repurchases .
  • Watch selling season execution through early fall; management expects demographics/lives to normalize as closures peak, reinforcing FY revenue trajectory .
