Management Commentary:
“In our Credit Cards segment we accomplished much of what we set out to do in the second quarter of 2016, setting an all-time record for Credit Card segment revenue and scaling our card marketing. However, even though Bankrate, Inc.’s revenue and Adjusted EBITDA exceeded the top end of our second quarter 2016 guidance, we are not satisfied, particularly with our Banking segment results. There are a number of key initiatives and investments in process across Bankrate, Inc. that we believe will further our progress towards continued long-term revenue growth and a return to increased profitability,” said Kenneth S. Esterow, President and CEO of Bankrate, Inc.
Steven D. Barnhart, SVP and Chief Financial Officer added, “In our flagship Credit Cards segment, we have nearly doubled our marketing investment across SEM, display, social, and direct response television from prior year levels with positive contribution margin, as we continue to diversify our consumer demand for credit cards beyond natural search. With NextAdvisor’s leading content marketing capabilities, we expect to further accelerate our efforts in aggregating consumer demand.
“In our Banking segment, mortgage consumer inquiry revenue growth of 48% was driven by our ongoing value-based pricing efforts. However, macro trends in online advertising for deposits continue to weigh on the Banking segment results. This led us to conclude that the goodwill relating to our Banking segment was impaired, and to record a non-cash impairment charge in the second quarter.”
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Highlights:
| · | | Total second quarter revenue of $98.3 million, up 10% versus second quarter of 2015. Cards consumer inquiry revenue up 38% versus second quarter of 2015. Mortgage consumer inquiry revenue up 48% versus second quarter of 2015. |
| · | | Non-cash impairment charge of $25 million, along with a $20 million charge to reserve for a previously announced pending legal settlement, resulted in GAAP Net Loss. |
| · | | Second quarter GAAP Net Loss of $(41.0) million, representing loss per share of $(0.47); Adjusted Net Income in the second quarter of $9.7 million representing earnings per share of $0.11. |
| · | | Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $22.6 million, down 28% versus second quarter of 2015. |
Second Quarter 2016 Business Highlights:
Credit Cards Segment:
| · | | Total segment revenue of $69.7 million, an all-time record for the Credit Card segment, driven by 38% growth in consumer inquiry revenue. |
| · | | Total segment Adjusted EBITDA of $24.7 million, 4% lower versus second quarter of 2015. Strong revenue growth from paid marketing did not fully offset the expected impact of lower organic traffic. |
| · | | Integration of the NextAdvisor acquisition started with the launch of content marketing for CreditCards.com category pages. |
| · | | Released CreditCards.com ‘Score and Report’ App. Beyond just monitoring their credit scores, ‘Score and Report’ helps consumers track spending and debt utilization trends along with monitoring account payment history. |
Banking Segment:
| · | | Total segment revenue of $23.2 million, a 14% decline versus second quarter of 2015 on lower deposit consumer inquiry revenue and display revenue. Mortgage consumer inquiry revenue increased 48% versus second quarter of 2015 due to our value-based pricing initiatives. |
| · | | Total segment Adjusted EBITDA of $4.8 million, $4.4 million lower versus second quarter of 2015. Advertiser weakness in deposit consumer inquiry and display revenue led to the decline. |
| · | | Programmatic ad revenue increased 49%, sequentially versus first quarter of 2016, as we continue to optimize our programmatic ad serving technology and work with additional exchange providers. |
Senior Care Segment:
| · | | Total segment revenue of $6.0 million was 5% higher versus second quarter of 2015. |
| · | | The number of participating senior living communities in the Caring network reached an all-time high in June 2016, up 20% versus the second quarter of 2015. |
Business Outlook Third Quarter and Full Year 2016:
The following guidance for the third quarter and full year 2016 reflects the impact of the acquisition of NextAdvisor, which was completed on June 17, 2016.
Bankrate, Inc.’s guidance for the third quarter ending September 30, 2016:
| · | | Revenue is expected to be in the range of $110 million to $116 million. |
| · | | Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $23 million to $25 million. |
Bankrate, Inc.’s guidance for the full year ending December 31, 2016:
| · | | Revenue is expected to be in the range of $419 million to $430 million. |
| · | | Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $99 million to $103 million. |

Non-GAAP Measures:
To supplement Bankrate’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Bankrate uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses, gains and losses. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of Bankrate’s current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, Bankrate believes the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses that may not be indicative of its core operating results. In addition, because Bankrate has historically reported certain non-GAAP results to investors, Bankrate believes the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in its financial reporting. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the financial tables below.
