Castlight Health Announces First Quarter 2016 Results

Total Revenue of $22.7 Million, Up 42% Year Over Year


/EINPresswire.com/ -- SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - May 10, 2016) -  Castlight Health, Inc. (NYSE: CSLT), a leading health benefits platform provider, today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

"During the first quarter, we continued to make progress on key initiatives such as developing channel and ecosystem relationships, as well as successfully deploying our solutions including our newest products. As such, we were able to exceed our first quarter revenue guidance and improve our gross margins. However, the closing of deals is taking longer than we expected and we are moderating our ARR growth expectations for the year," said Giovanni Colella, M.D., co-founder and chief executive officer of Castlight Health. "We are instituting a cost reduction program designed to reduce our operating expenses to further lower our operating losses and help enable us to achieve our goal of being cash flow break-even by mid-2017. At the same time, we plan to maintain investments in innovation and customer success that we believe will power our long-term growth on a sustained basis."

Financial Performance for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016

  • Total revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $22.7 million, an increase of 42% from the first quarter of 2015. Subscription revenue was $21.0 million, an increase of 41% on a year-over-year basis.
  • Gross margin for the first quarter of 2016 was 59.3%, compared to a gross margin of 55.0% in the first quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP gross margin for the first quarter of 2016 was 62.9% compared to a non-GAAP gross margin of 58.1% in the first quarter of 2015.
  • Operating loss for the first quarter of 2016 was $21.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $19.7 million in the first quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP operating loss for the first quarter of 2016 was $13.0 million, compared to a non-GAAP operating loss of $16.1 million in the first quarter of 2015.
  • Net loss per basic and diluted share was $0.22 in the first quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss per basic and diluted share of $0.21 in the first quarter of 2015. The non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share for the first quarter of 2016 was $0.13, compared to a net loss per basic and diluted share of $0.17 in the first quarter of 2015. For both GAAP and non-GAAP purposes, the weighted average basic and diluted share count for the first quarter of 2016 was 96.3 million compared to 91.8 million in the first quarter of 2015.
  • Total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $120.5 million at the end of the first quarter of 2016. Cash used in operations for the first quarter of 2016 was $14.0 million, compared to $13.2 million used in operations in the first quarter of 2015.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in this press release in the accompanying tables. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures".

Business Outlook

Q2 2016 Guidance: Revenue for the company's second quarter is expected to be $22.8 million to $23.1 million. We expect to generate a non-GAAP operating loss in the range of $12.5 million to $13.5 million and a non-GAAP net loss per share of $0.13 to $0.14 based on 97 million weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding.

Full Year 2016 Guidance: Revenue for the company's full year 2016 is expected to be in the range of $99.0 million to $102.0 million, an increase of 31% - 35% year-over-year. Non-GAAP operating loss is expected to be in the range of $40.0 million to $42.0 million. Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $0.41 to $0.43 based on 97 million to 98 million weighted average basic and diluted common shares outstanding.

The company's revised non-GAAP operating loss guidance reflects the expected financial impact of the reduction in force effective in the second quarter of 2016.

For both the second quarter and the full year 2016, non-GAAP guidance excludes the effects of stock-based compensation expense, capitalization and amortization of internal-use software, and the impact of the restructuring charge expected to be taken in the second quarter of 2016.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Castlight Health's financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we also use and provide investors and others with non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance, including non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share. These non-GAAP financial measures differ from GAAP financial measures in that they exclude stock-based compensation, warrant expense, litigation settlement, capitalization and amortization of internal-use software and the associated tax impact of these items, where applicable.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors and others, facilitate the analysis of the company's core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods, and can help enhance overall understanding of the company's historical financial performance.

We have provided a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, except that we have not reconciled our non-GAAP operating loss and net loss per share guidance for the second quarter of 2016 and full year 2016 to comparable GAAP operating loss and net loss per share guidance because we do not provide guidance for stock-based compensation expense and capitalization and amortization of internal-use software, which are reconciling items between GAAP and non-GAAP operating loss. The factors that may impact our future stock-based compensation expense and capitalization and amortization of internal-use software are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and therefore we are unable to provide such guidance without unreasonable effort.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. Castlight Health encourages investors and others to review the company's financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
