2009 Guidance
eHealth is providing guidance for the full year ending December 31, 2009 based on information currently available:
| • | | Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $131 million to $136 million |
| • | | Stock-based compensation expense is expected to be in the range of $5 million to $6 million |
| • | | GAAP income tax rate expected to be in the range of 43% to 45% |
| • | | GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to be in the range of $0.51 to $0.61 per share |
“I would like to provide some additional comments on our 2009 guidance,” said Stuart Huizinga, chief financial officer of eHealth. “We expect our 2009 non-GAAP operating margin percentage, which excludes stock-based compensation, to be at least equal to what we reported for 2008, and our 2009 operating income to increase as compared to the 2008 operating income. At the same time, we expect our 2009 net income to be impacted by a decline in interest income, a non-operating item. Our 2009 interest income is expected to decline from the run-rate we observed in the fourth quarter of 2008 as a result of current interest rates and our plan to continue to manage our cash conservatively.”

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release includes financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). To supplement eHealth’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, eHealth presents investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margins, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share.
| • | | Non-GAAP operating income consists of GAAP operating income excluding the effects of expensing stock-based compensation related to stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units in accordance with SFAS 123R beginning in 2006 and amortization of deferred stock-based compensation expense in accordance with APB 25 for grants made prior to 2006. |
| • | | Non-GAAP operating margins are calculated by dividing non-GAAP operating income by GAAP total revenue. |
| • | | Non-GAAP pre-tax income consists of GAAP pre-tax income excluding the effects of expensing stock-based compensation. |
| • | | Non-GAAP net income consists of GAAP net income excluding the effects of expensing stock-based compensation adjusted for estimated income tax benefit related to stock-based compensation expense. Additionally, non-GAAP net income for the three months and fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 excludes $18.9 million of non-cash benefits for income taxes related to the reduction of the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. |
| • | | Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average diluted shares outstanding. |
eHealth believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides consistency and comparability with the company’s past financial reports. Management also believes that the exclusion of the items described above provides an additional measure of the company’s operating results and facilitates comparisons of the company’s core operating performance against prior periods and business model objectives. This information is provided to investors in order to facilitate additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means to evaluate the company’s ongoing operations. Externally, the company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures continue to be useful to investors in their assessment of the company’s operating performance.
Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margins, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of the company’s business and do not reflect all of the income tax as determined in accordance with GAAP. As a result, you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of eHealth’s results as reported under GAAP. The company expects to continue to incur stock-based compensation costs described above, and exclusion of these costs, and their related income tax impact, from non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual or infrequent. The company compensates for these limitations by prominently disclosing GAAP operating income, GAAP pre-tax income, GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share and providing investors with reconciliations from the company’s GAAP operating results to the non-GAAP financial measures for the relevant periods.
The accompanying tables provide more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.

Notes:
(1) | Net cash provided by operating activities for the period from the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. |
(2) | IFP applications submitted on eHealth’s website during the period. Applications are counted as submitted when the applicant completes the application, provides a method for payment and clicks the submit button on our website and submits the application to us. The applicant generally has additional actions to take before the application will be reviewed by the insurance carrier, such as providing additional information and providing an electronic signature. In addition, an applicant may submit more than one application. We include applications for IFP products for which we receive commissions as well as other forms of payment. We define our “IFP” offerings as major medical individual and family health insurance plans, which does not include small business, short-term major medical, stand-alone dental, life or student health insurance product offerings. |
(3) | New IFP members reported to eHealth as approved during the period. Some members that are approved by a carrier do not accept the approval and therefore do not become paying members. |
(4) | New members for all products reported to eHealth as approved during the period. Some members that are approved by a carrier do not accept the approval and therefore do not become paying members. |
(5) | Total revenue (from all sources) recognized during the period from the condensed consolidated statements of income. |
(6) | Calculated as total revenue recognized during the period (see note (5) above) divided by average estimated membership for the period (calculated as beginning and ending estimated membership for all products for the period, divided by two). |

See our2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K—Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Summary of Selected Metrics for additional information regarding our calculation of estimated membership. |
